Chapter 184: Surprise
In order to train a group of top assassins, the empire decided to place nearly 200 children in the Kiev Nora Sea of Trees, where many dangerous species live, and let them pass through the sea of trees in seven days and select the best talents in this way.
Such a selection method is a waste of talent!
Li Wei lived in this place called Kiev Nora Tree Sea for several months. He knew the danger of this tree sea to ordinary people. It was purely due to luck to be able to survive a night.
The sea of trees during the day is fine. At night, all kinds of monsters and monsters will come out. Once, Li Wei went around at night and was attacked by various predators in the dark more than a dozen times. It was not that those powerful dangerous species appeared in groups, but that the dangerous species that appeared at night were more aggressive, and many of them were poisonous.
These elite soldiers of the empire were hanging in the sea of Nora trees in Kiev, and it would be even more impossible to replace them with a group of children!
Moreover, when you walk through the woods, it depends more on luck. Luck is not part of strength. Luck often comes and goes suddenly and quietly when you go. No one can be lucky for the rest of his life.
It has been a day and a night since the children entered the woods. Li Wei probably has all died. How old is it? Could it be that they can actually pass through the Kiev Nora Sea of Trees where wild beasts are rampant?
The incident had already happened, and Li Wei could only observe a three-second silence for those poor children, and then go tomorrow to worship another group of people waiting on the other side of the woods to worship the sky. It is considered to be a good deed every day...
Standing in the mess all over the ground, Li Wei found a set of cooking utensils among the supplies carried by the soldiers, took a few daggers and swords, and entered the woods with the spoils, preparing to return to his hut.
Cooking in pottery basins is not very useful, and it is worth getting a set of iron cooking utensils this time!
...
Chi Tong and Hei Tong discovered this hut that stood suddenly in the center of the tree sea. What they saw was not the hut itself, but a circle of wood walls.
The walls looked very solid, and the wood seemed to be nailed into the ground by a sledgehammer, and looked very solid.
They carefully circled the wall and saw a wooden door made of heavy logs. They also saw a hole that was gnawed off by something on the side of the wall.
Hei Tong gestured with his hands and found that the hole was just enough for them to get in.
Chi Tong lay on the ground and looked inside, only to find a messy vegetable garden inside and a small wooden hut not far away.
Such a wooden house appeared in the forest, and both of them felt quite confused.
What is the purpose of this wooden house? Who lives in it? Is it a place to provide them with supplies and rest?
"Sister, are we going in?" When Chi Tong was there, Hei Tong liked to listen to his sister's words most of the time.
After checking back and forth several times next to the wooden house, Chi Tong came up with a guess that the soldiers might have used for them to rest, and there should be some other places.
There are fresh footprints on the door, leading to the place where they came. It seems that the construction here has not been long, and no one will build such a residence in such a dangerous place to live.
So Chi Tong judged that this place must be for them to rest.
After using branches and stones to determine that the hole was not a trap, Chi Tong took the lead in drilling into Li Wei's yard, and Hei Tong followed closely.
After entering the yard, the two of them were immediately attracted by the obviously reclaimed messy vegetable garden. They looked at these "grass" that were chewed out of shape and quickly ignored them.
This may be a piece of ground that has not had time to level it after removing the grass, and the green weeds should have been cleared out.
The two of them walked around the yard less than half a circle and found something that surprised them, the small pond!
There are actually a few black fish in the pond!
Seeing the black fish swimming leisurely in the small pond, Chi Tong and Hei Tong swallowed each other, and were seduced by the enchanting figures of these black fish.
The small pond is very shallow, and the range of movement of fish is limited, so they can catch fish without much effort!
But for safety, they walked around the yard carefully for a few times, and did not find any danger before they were completely relieved. In addition, they also found some dried fish in the wooden house, which tasted salty and delicious!
There is a water tank in a corner of the house, with clear and pure water inside, and there are some sour and smelly vegetable leaves in the pottery basin in the corner, and it seems that there are a few bugs crawling inside...
These are all their findings after checking the room, confirming that they can cook!
There is a ready-made stove in the yard. The shelf used to smoke the wooden boards before was made into a simple stove by Li Wei. There is a crooked pot pot on it as a pot, and a flat piece of logs is used as a pot.
Hei Tong went to catch the fish, Chi Tong washed the pot and boiled the salted fish underwater, and seasoned it with rare salt found in the house. The two worked together and quickly cooked a pot of plain fish soup.
The fishy smell was a bit heavy, but neither of the sisters cared about it. They used wooden sticks to pick up the cooked fish, and they sat in front of the door of the cottage, and they tried this rare delicacy in a unified manner.
Bite on the salty and wet fish, Chi Tong and Black Tong showed a happy expression. The hunger in their belly was finally satisfied after eating all the fish. They accidentally ate too much and were inconvenient to take action.
It takes at least four days to get out of this Kiev Nora tree sea. No one can go out without food and drinking water, so they are not worried that the quota will be lost. Instead, they are more confident in living because they have replenished their energy.
Considering that others may encounter cottages, Chi Tong did not plan to stay for a long time. When the feeling of fullness subsided, she was about to take Black Tong back on the road.
The sound of tiny iron tools colliding sounded from outside the high wall, and a slightly heavy footstep sounded from far to near, making Chi Tong and Black Tong, who were sitting on the curtain wall stand up alertly.
Someone is here! Is this wooden house inhabited?
It’s so simple inside, why are there anyone living there? Isn’t this a resting place prepared by the soldiers for them?
Hei Tong looked at his sister, with doubts and concerns in his eyes.
Chi Tong showed a solemn expression on her face. After making a gesture of silence to Hei Tong, she pulled her towards the little hole when she came.
He pressed his head against Hei Tong and let her get out first.
Hei Tong had just drilled out of his head and saw Li Wei's feet half-squatting in front of the hole. He raised his head dullly and looked at Li Wei's eyes.
The clanging movement was still approaching the door of the yard. Li Wei felt it was troublesome and handed over the spoils to a split body to take, so the sound was there and the person was here.
"Hei Tong, go out quickly!"
Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer to the door of the wall, Chi Tong urged Hei Tong nervously in a low voice.
"But..." Hei Tong continued to look at Li Wei, and his expressionless face couldn't hold back. As soon as his body moved, he was about to get up and drill out of the hole.
Li Wei stretched out his hand and pressed it against the upper edge of the hole, blocking the accidentally contact between the back of the black pupil and the sharp wooden thorns at the hole.
