Miss, your house has taken down gl

Xu classmate ran up and hugged a fruit and ran to a safe place, poked the pulp inside, and the touch was like a potato.

"What is this?"

If Feng Xiu was awake, he would definitely tell her that it was a baobab fruit, but fortunately, there was another person who had seen it here, and that was Cong Yu.Cong Yu told them that this is the legendary baobab fruit, the fruit in it is very satisfying, eating such a one will make adults full.

Hearing this, Song Ruanmeng's eyes looking upward immediately became extraordinarily hot. The dense small leaves above formed a large green shade on the top of the tree. Some of the fruits under the green shade were as small as an adult's fist, and some were as big as a fist. One double pillow.

It is said that the whole body of the baobab tree is a treasure, not only the fruit can satisfy the hunger, but also the leaves can be eaten as vegetables after being boiled.The rhizome of the root can be boiled and eaten after peeling.Jam can be used directly, roasted and ground seeds can be made into coffee-like beverages, and passers-by can be made into water ladles and wine cups.

The most incredible thing is that a baobab tree can support two people for a lifetime.

She had only heard of it but never seen it, and now that she saw it, she was extremely excited.

She turned to Fat Dai and said: "Daddy, come here, help me guard the youngest, don't let it fall."

Fat Dai looked up at the mischievous little guy, walked over unsteadily, twisted his fat ass, and bumped Cong Yu who was standing there to the side.

"Cong Yu, go to another tree and pick more baobab fruits." Song Ruanmeng directed.

Cong Yu nodded, and was about to walk to another tree, when Song Ruanmeng said again: "By the way, take off your coat and tie it in a knot and hang it behind your back, and pick some more leaves."

The fat man had recovered, and his face looked better. He took the initiative to run over and took another baobab fruit to the other side: "Captain, do you want to open it?"

Song Ruanmeng thought for a while: "Cut it in half. We don't have any tools on us now. These shells are very hard and can be used as pots and water storage basins. You should still have daggers on you, right?"

Fatty and Classmate Xu each had one, and Song Ruanmeng and Feng Xiu happened to lose it in a quicksand pit when they were both using it.

The youngest little bear cut a dozen or so baobab fruits, probably lost interest, and climbed down crookedly, and when he was one meter away from Song Ruanmeng, he suddenly loosened his four claws, and jumped at him excitedly. in her arms.

At that moment, Song Ruanmeng's heart stopped suddenly, until he hugged a chubby warm body firmly in his arms, he felt that the blood began to flow again, and the heartbeat became louder and louder.

Song Ruanmeng is probably the kind of bear father and bear mother of a bear child in the eyes of many people. The child is so mischievous that he can't bear to teach him a lesson.Neither beating nor scolding, she could only rub it all over, but the youngest bear seemed to think that mother bear was playing with her, Le's eyes were narrowed.The four little paws were waving excitedly upwards.

"Next time you do something bad, I'll smash your ass!"

Song Ruanmeng gritted his teeth, put the four small wooden shoes on, and put the youngest little bear in front of the little bear boss: "Take care of your brother, don't think I don't know what you did, don't be an example."

The little bear boss tilted his head, with an innocent look on his face, and he was more capable than the other in acting like a baby.

She stroked the head of the little bear's second child who was obediently sitting on Fatty's body and playing with his little paws: "You are still the most obedient."

Little Xiong's second child raised his head and let out an obedient "Aw".

At this time, Cong Yu came down from the tree, his back was covered with leaves, and there were eight baobabs the size of washbasins surrounding the tree, some of which had split open, and the fat man and classmate Xu who were guarding him quickly move away.

In fact, at this time, the most important thing should be to find the kind of medicine that can alleviate the injury for Feng Xiu, but now everyone here, including Song Ruanmeng and Cong Yu, everyone is so hungry that Cong Yu climbed the tree. I felt nothing at the time, but when I came down from a height, I felt dizzy like a fear of heights, because I was hungry.

With such a body, I took Feng Xiu to look for the herbal medicine that I don't know how far I can find it. Let alone whether I will meet those people who followed Xu classmate on the road again, even if they encounter a snake casually, they will only have Wait for death.

Fat Dai also looked weak. Seeing that the task was completed, he turned his head and walked towards classmate Xu and Fatty, who could hardly smell the scent. Two breadfruits had been opened there, and the faint scent was broken into pieces from inside. exudes from the fruit of the block.

It looked at the two of them, stretched out its big wings and moved one of them in front of itself, then looked at the fat man and classmate Xu.

Fat Dai: Very good, I didn't find it, so Master Ben Dai can have a meal.

Classmate Xu & Fatty leaning their heads against each other: It's really tiring to pretend that you don't see such a big animal sneaking around.

Song Ruanmeng was also very hungry, and he didn't care whether the baobab fruit could be eaten raw or not, so he grabbed a fist-sized piece and took a few bites, before chewing it completely, he swallowed it whole.After eating two big chunks, with a little something on the bottom, I began to savor the taste carefully.

The fat man held a piece of fruit in his mouth, and while he was eating, he lowered his head and continued to open the fruit. The one on hand was completely opened, and the fruit inside was divided into pieces before he stopped, and then picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Well, it's a bit like grapefruit flesh, a little sour and full of water."

Classmate Xu hurriedly nodded in response: "It doesn't have much fragrance, but it is full. It can be used as a staple food or as a vegetable and fruit, which is most suitable for us now. Unfortunately, Feng Xiu can't eat it for the time being."

Song Ruanmeng ate two catties of baobab fruit, and then stopped for a while. In fact, he was only [-]% full now, but he already had the strength to continue to send elements to Feng Xiu. Although it could not be relieved, at least it could stop the deterioration.

There are a lot of baobab fruits. Xu and the fat man have been hungry for too long. Even if they are full, they still stuff them into their mouths one by one. They wish they could die in so many baobab fruits, which is better than dying of hunger and thirst in this desert. strong.

Cong Yu stopped eating when she was [-]% full. She took the empty half of the bread husk, scraped off the inside, walked to a baobab tree, took out a dagger, and was about to stab at the tree. One knife, and before he could make a move, he remembered that he had used this dagger to chop off the head of a half-corpse last night, so he took it back silently, and borrowed classmate Xu's dagger to stab the tree, with a "swish", a small A stream of water gushed out of the hole and into the husk.

Song Ruanmeng blinked, unable to react.

It was the first time she knew that the baobab tree was a huge water storage device. Cong Yu filled a basin of water, and the water in the hole gradually stopped flowing out.

She walked up to the crowd with the water, squatted down and took the other three fruit shells, poured the water in respectively, and handed the share in front of Song Ruanmeng.

Song Ruanmeng's eyes were soft, he took the fruit bowl, held the back of Feng Xiu's head and carefully fed it to him.

Cong Yu smiled, turned around and picked up a fruit bowl. The fat man hadn't drunk it yet, but Cong Yu snatched it, poured a small half into his own bowl, and returned the rest to the fat man.

The fat man was dumbfounded. He looked at the less than 800ml of water inside, with a bitter face.

Cong Yu rarely explained kindly: "Me and Mengmeng."

Hearing this, the fat man looked at the volume in Cong Yu's bowl, and when the two girls shared it, they still had less than [-] milliliters. He immediately said, "That's not enough, I'll give you some more."

"No need." Cong Yu shook his head, the baobab fruit contains a lot of water, which has already given them a lot of water, so they don't need so much water.

Although he was in a coma, Feng Xiu was obviously conscious. He felt the water entering his mouth. It was no longer the bitter juice before. He was busy swallowing it, and he drank half a football-sized fruit bowl before he was still satisfied. stop.

The cool water seemed to flow through the blood vessels of the whole body, which relieved the excruciating pain a little.Feng Xiu wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't.When he was a child, he was burned once, only on the back of his hand, but the pain was so painful that the back of his hand was burning and burning for several days.But now, not only the back of his hand, but also the entire left arm, half of his chest and forehead and scalp, the degree of burns has reached at least an intermediate level, and the pain made him want to pass out, or even die directly in that fire.

But along the way, no matter how hungry or tired he was, his teammates did not give up. He could hear Fatty's breathing so heavy that his lungs ached.

Classmate Xu's back injury was getting more and more serious from the severity of his breathing, but he kept pretending to be okay all the way, gritted his teeth and endured it, and would help the fat man to hold him from time to time to prevent him from falling.

The captain and Yu Cong offered to help Fatty carry him more than once.

Fatty followed him all the time, and could support him when he fell.

They were all gritted their teeth for him, and even gave up the goal of leaving the desert, turned around and went to another strange place to find the strange herb that grew in the desert.

What qualifications does he have not to insist on.

Fatty is a big man, and he was not full after eating the washbasin-sized one. While other people were 'not paying attention', he dug up a football-sized one by himself, and ate everything in it before he felt that he was finally alive.

To be honest, during this period of time, he ate bugs and sneak attacking dú snakes every day. He almost vomited, but he still couldn't get enough of such disgusting things, so he had to save some of his rations for his own food. Others, thinking of it, are full of bitter tears.

Song Ruanmeng and the others naturally knew that Fatty was exhausted and starving during this time. Anyway, there were so many breadfruits, so no one pretended not to see them and ate them as they wished.

Classmate Xu wiped off his sweat. There are so many baobab fruits here, it is difficult to bring them all. After all, they don’t have an ox cart now, so they can’t give up and are reluctant to give it up.If it was before, her first thought would definitely be to ask the captain.However, after going through so many things, she gradually matured and became independent.

She remembered that when she was on a deserted island, the captain used to open a small hole in the top of a coconut, scoop out the coconut juice and meat inside, and make a coconut pot out of the coconut shell.I thought that this might be the same way. After digging out the meat inside, the outer shell can be made into a monkey bread pot, or a water storage container, and the lid can be used as a plug after modification.

It has to be said that this kind of idea is very good. She and the fat man made six or seven such water pots, and poured all the meat in the empty shell that had been eaten in front.

"Sister Yu, is there still water on the baobab tree?"

Cong Yu gave Song Ruanmeng a drink of water, and after hearing this, he didn't rush to answer, and only said after drinking: "Yes, this kind of baobab tree is very light in wood, like a sponge, and it will be full of water during the rainy season. , there is at least 200 liters of water in a tree."

She pointed to the baobab tree, which was the thinnest among them and could be hugged by two people.

The rest of the baobab trees are not so thin. Although each tree is less than 20 meters high, the diameter of the tree is more than ten meters. It looks like a big bottle tree from a distance.Those huge trees are said to be able to store thousands of kilograms of water inside, just like a water storage tower in the wilderness.

So there is a saying that in the desert, the baobab tree is with life.

They filled the huge water pot with water, Song Ruanmeng and Cong Yu hugged three of them, Xu was injured, and he casually showed a carefree expression that had nothing to do with it, but he was slightly flustered. White lips betrayed her.

So only let her hold one.

The fat man had eaten and drank enough and rested for a long time. Now he only felt full of strength all over his body, and he didn't feel as tired as before with a big man like Feng Xiu on his back.

And those baobab fruits that were dug out, those that did not come out of the water, were tied together with their coats and hung on Fat Dai. Twist the bark into hemp rope, tie a specially made baobab pot and hang it around its neck. The hole is just big enough for Fatty's head to move freely in it.

The huge baobab pot is full of fruits that have been dug out and the juice has been dug out. Now Fatty, who is taller than Song Ruanmeng, is carrying those fruits on his back, hanging the pot as big as a washbasin without feeling tired at all. He bowed his head and pecked at a piece as a snack.

Occasionally, he would pick up a piece and turn his head to his back, using the clothes holding the fruit as shade from the sun. The three little ones would immediately stretch out a paw from the shadows, and the little bear would pick up the fruit and give it to the innocent The clumsy second brother took two bites, and then gave his shrewd little brother two bites, stuffed the rest into his own mouth, and finally licked his paws to clean up the juice.

After walking under the sun for more than an hour, a large green area suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, surrounded by trees, and there was a tree-lined path inside, which looked very shady.

Classmate Xu pointed in one direction with a look of surprise: "The plant smell on my body is that!" She still remembered that she fell on that bush.The reason why his consciousness is vague but he has a clear impression of this bush is because this is the first time he has seen green in such a long time. It is like a dream, so naturally his memory is clear.

Cong Yu stepped forward to take a look, and after she was sure, she carefully placed the three pots full of water on the ground. Along the way, both her and Song Ruanmeng's arms were stiff in order to hold the three pots.

While rubbing her arm, she searched in the bushes. Suddenly, she reached out and touched the bushes, picked out a small black-purple fruit, and said with a sigh of relief: "I found it."

Song Ruanmeng squinted and asked, "What is this?"

Cong Yu shook his head: "I don't know exactly what kind of plant this is, because I have only seen it from a few wild travel books, and those authors can't tell what it is, but they all know that it is a plant that grows in the desert. The plants in it are very rare. It is very useful for sunburn or burns when exposed to the hot desert sun and accidentally burned when lighting a fire at night."

The author of one of the travel notes also said that as long as you find such a sufficient amount of fruit and make it into juice and apply it, even if you have a burn all over your body, the patient can get better in just one month, and you don't even need to go to the hospital.Of course, this fruit does not have the effect of removing scars.

But the effect sounded too exaggerated after all, so Cong Yu didn't say it.

They searched in this bush for a long time before they found three such fruits.

The fat man muttered to himself: "Save it a bit, crush the skin and use it together, it should be enough."

They didn't get burned, so they didn't know exactly how they felt.But Feng Xiu was the one who was injured. He was very tired, but he couldn't fall asleep because of the severe pain for more than twenty hours.And when these juices were applied to the body, it was as if a large piece of enhanced concentrated mint ointment had been applied suddenly, the burning wound was immediately cooled down, nine points of pain became three points, and the frowning brows slowly relaxed, without any pain. After a few minutes, I fell into a dark and sweet dream.

The fat man who had been paying attention to his expression breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that it really works."

It is now 03:30 in the afternoon, and it will be dark here after six o'clock, and there are still about seven hours away from the next place where they can stay, so they plan to spend the night here.

After seeing the yellow desert for more than half a month, and now seeing such a large piece of green, everyone just felt that their eyes were not enough, and they wished to put all the green they could see into their eyes.

They stayed at the corner not far from the river bank in the oasis. There were no tents or machetes. Everything was like returning to a deserted island, and everything needed to be done by themselves.

Fortunately, they already had the experience of building a house, and this time the house was only for one night, so there was no need to cut down trees so wasteful, they just found some dry branches to build a circular model, and the exterior was made of thorny branches and The thorny shrubs are covered with no gaps, and a bonfire is lit at night, which can not only prevent moisture and cold, but also resist wild animals.

If they had found such an oasis two days ago, everyone would definitely have to explore it carefully and look for edible food.

But now, the Starlight Squad is a group of remnants of soldiers and generals, and the few healthy ones who have to protect them cannot go away, so they can only sit on the haystack paved with thick hay.

After eating, drinking and resting, lying on the soft grass and looking at the blue sky, Song Ruanmeng and others began to recall what happened these days.

Suddenly, classmate Xu slapped her thigh suddenly, and the sudden movement of the muscles caused her small waist to suffer a lot. She gritted her teeth to hold her bite wound, and said, "Our diamonds! Our diamonds are gone! !"

The fat man also thought of this, and rolled on the ground with a groan: "Diamond! My five Song family villas!"

Song Ruanmeng looked at the two boys and girls who looked like the sky was falling, and took out a diamond from his pocket: "What do you mean?"

Fatty and classmate Xu quickly raised their heads to look: "Is there another one?"

Song Ruanmeng pursed her lips, and finally couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth: "There is a saying that all eggs can't be put in the same basket." After saying that, she stood up and walked to Fatty's side, and touched it from under its belly. Touch, and take out four small black bags.

The rope that opened one of the small bags was dumped in the palm of the hand, and a dozen or so fingernail-sized diamonds appeared in front of their eyes, and there were obviously some that hadn't been completely poured out of the bag.

Cong Yu also took out a piece of rough diamond the size of a ping-pong ball in his pocket and shook it in front of the two of them.

Song Ruanmeng lowered his head and took out a small bag from Feng Sleeve's trouser pocket. Inside the small bag were five or six rough diamonds the size of pigeon eggs.

Then, in the dumbfoundedness of the two, they touched their trouser pockets and took out a small bag, which contained the same polished diamonds that they found in the tree house before.

Student Xu blinked: "Why don't we?"

Cong Yu smiled: "Daredevils are easy to lose."

Fatty & Xu: _(:з」∠)_

In fact, classmate Xu and Fatty also had them, but the quicksand pit happened not long after Song Ruanmeng put them in their pockets, and he didn't have time to tell them at all.

When they came back, they found that their pockets were flat, and they knew that their things must have been lost.Song Ruanmeng didn't want them to lose because of this, so he simply regarded the rest as lost with the other diamonds.

From the beginning I thought that all the diamonds were lost, but now I found out that only half of them were lost. It can be described as ups and downs. Xu and Fatty have experienced life and death several times, and they can be regarded as open-minded. Shaking their heads, they no longer feel sorry for the lost half of the diamonds. , took them all, and the two fell into a frenzied weighing.

After counting for a while, the fat man felt his neck itchy, and tilted his head to scratch it, but found a few small black bugs crawling on Feng Xiu's body, and Feng Xiu frowned at the moment, but couldn't make any sound, he was so frightened. He took the diamond in his hand and wanted to drive away the bugs, but most of the bugs had penetrated into the skin and remained motionless as if they had taken root in Feng Xiu's wound, even when his fingers touched one of them. , that one actually plunged into Feng Xiu's wound in its entirety!

The rest of the people also noticed that something was wrong here, and walked over quickly. After listening to the fat man, Cong Yu frowned: "It's a tick."

Ticks!

Everyone present has heard the name of this bug, but has never seen it. It is said that if this bug gets into the body, even a cow may be stung.There are even many people who, after being penetrated into their bodies by this kind of bug, procrastinated repeatedly and died.

Thinking of this, Fatty, a big man, burst into tears.

In fact, in this case, you can put some ointment or hand cream on it, and those ticks just got in, and they will fall out by themselves when they smell this smell.But in their current situation, they are poor and only have money left, but they live in a broken place where they can't buy anything.

Song Ruanmeng rubbed her chin, knelt down and tentatively put her hands on Feng Xiu, closed her eyes, the power of the elements surged out, this was the first time she used such a strong element, and she could only use it a little before, to avoid them Exploding and dying, but now there are no conditions, so I can only take a risk and try it.

Feng Xiu snorted, he couldn't see it, Song Ruanmeng opened her eyes, and she saw a large number of elements rioting, and saw three ticks under that layer of skin. The crazy elements forced him to turn his head and drill out of the skin.

The fat man and classmate Xu didn't know what was going on inside, but they found that the three little ticks crawled out of the skin like crazy, and fell to the haystack without a sound.

Cong Yu was worried about Song Ruanmeng's situation, so he couldn't help squatting down in front of her: "Are you okay?"

Song Ruanmeng is recovering the power of the elements, from the elements to the bones, from the bones to the visceral meridians... Hearing Cong Yu's voice at first, he looked up subconsciously, but saw a white and delicate naked body.

"Hey!"

She gasped, and the element completely shrank back, and the white and greasy skin disappeared immediately, and turned into a normal tattered clothes.

Cong Yu frowned: "What's wrong?"

Song Ruanmeng: "...it's okay." She lowered her head, but her face was inexplicably burned.
