survival in the wilderness

Chapter 156 Down the River
They made full preparations for the test ship this time.

Except for the two children Lin Yan and Feng Wenwen, the rest are people brought by Yun Qing, all of them are in good health and have good water skills.

They all carry weapons and are always ready to deal with emergencies.

With a bow and arrow behind her back and a big knife slanted across her waist, Yun Qing stood beside Lin Yan.Her task also includes protecting Lin Yan and Feng Wenwen.

Looking at the flock of geese that have been lingering for a long time, Yun Qing said: "We can rush through the flock of geese."

The boat was more than one meter high from the water, and the edges were reinforced with iron wires. Yun Qing thought that it should be strong enough, and she might be able to try rushing through the flock of geese.

Before Lin Yan could speak, Feng Wenwen said, "You can rush over."

Lin Yan was also a little ready to move, but thinking of the ferocity of the big white goose, he shook his head and said, "No way. The big white goose is tall and can reach the boat with its head extended. If it flies up, we will be finished if we are attacked by a group."

She could never forget the tragic fight between the big white goose and the sheep.Seeing that scene with his own eyes, Lin Yan thought it was too risky to rush past the flock of geese.

Yun Qing didn't insist anymore, "You're right. Safety is the most important thing. Wait a minute, there are few geese in the middle of the river. Let's go there later."

The geese flocked close to both sides of the river bank, and there were indeed few in the middle.Lin Yan looked intently, and saw that the geese in the middle were swimming to the two sides.

"Okay, let's walk through the middle of the river."

When the boat reached the middle of the river, the geese had already gone away.They passed through the middle smoothly.

Seeing the white stretching for hundreds of meters on both sides, Lin Yan exclaimed: "There are too many geese. It is not easy to get around them."

"I haven't fought before, how do I know I can't fight?" Feng Wenwen's eyes flashed with fighting intent.

Lin Yan looked at her in surprise, "You actually have such a bold idea, why didn't I see it before, you are so brave in your bones."

Just after finishing speaking, Yun Qing said: "Maybe you can give it a try."

Lin Yan was taken aback, "You are not afraid of death, the big white goose is so ferocious, it is rushing to give away the head."

Yun Qing shook his head, "I understand your worry, but if we want to go out, we must dare to challenge. Only through constant fighting can we forge a stronger army. If we are afraid to move forward, we can only stay here forever."

"I understand, I just don't want to see someone sacrifice their lives for this." Lin Yan didn't know that what Yun Qing said was right.If you want to open up the way forward, you have to pay a price.

Yun Qing was silent for a while, "People die every day, from being bitten to death by poisonous insects, from ferocious beasts, from old age, and from accidents. What we can do is to save as many people as possible."

"But I still disagree with the big white goose, it's not worth it."

Feng Wenwen glanced at Lin Yan, then at Yun Qing, and pointed to a place, "That's something to do in the future, there seems to be someone on the river bank over there."

Lin Yan and Yun Qing hurriedly looked over, there was indeed someone by the river, as if they were washing something.

Yun Qing ordered the helmsman to pull the boat aside.

At this time, they had been walking on the water for nearly three hours, and they were far away from the geese.

When there were still tens of meters away, Lin Yan had already heard the panicked shouts of people on the shore, pointing at their boat.

The boat stopped ten meters away from the shore, and Lin Yan saw clearly that the people on the shore were a group of wild men, holding branches and stones in their hands, and staring at the boat warily.

A savage was struggling with a fish stuck in a spiked wooden fork.

It turned out to be fishing by the river.

Gumbling voices kept coming out, but Lin Yan didn't understand.

Yun Qing stood at the bow of the boat and said loudly: "We come from the Sun Tribe, which tribe are you from?"

The savages on the shore looked blankly, as if they didn't understand.

Yun Qing gestured a few times with her hands, pointed to herself, and then pointed to the shore, opened her mouth and said a few words, meaning that she wanted to communicate with them, without any malice.

The people on the shore didn't know if they understood, and the boat got closer. Yun Qing waited for the boat to stop, jumped off the bow, and landed firmly on the river bank.

Lin Yan looked very envious. She was indeed the strongest woman in Sun City. She was very athletic. From the easy jump just now, it could be seen that she was not comparable to ordinary people.

The savage on the shore was frightened by Yun Qing's jump, and stepped back a few meters, looking at her in fear.

Yun smiled lightly, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

Seeing her smile, she didn't move any further. A tall man came out from among the savages, said a lot of words curiously, and pointed to the boat.

Lin Yan got off the boat along the wooden plank and stood beside Yun Qing.

Seeing her as a child, the savages became less wary and more curious.

Lin Yan pointed to the people on the boat, and then gestured to the north, which meant that they came from there.

The savage man nodded, as if he understood.

Yun Qing turned to look at Lin Yan, "I can't speak, what should I do?"

"Make gestures casually, don't care if you understand it or not, let's go to the place where they live to see how many people there are."

After Lin Yan finished speaking, he looked at the wild man and pointed to himself, "My name is Lin Yan."

The savage man uttered Lin Yan's tone strangely.

Lin Yan nodded happily, "Yes, yes, Lin Yan, my name."

She pointed to the man and asked, "What's your name?"

"force?"

Seeing the savage man nodding, Lin Yan was stunned. Is this the word?Whatever it is, that's how it's pronounced.

After some extremely difficult gestures, Lin Yan finally made the savages put down their guard, and she asked Yun Qing to cast a net to catch a net of fish and give them to the savages.

The savages took them in immediately, curious about the nets.I couldn't help but look at it over and over again, but I didn't understand how it was made.

Following the savages to their living place, Lin Yan thought they would live underground, but he didn't expect that it was not at all.

The savages lived in a large forest by the river. They used wood to build tree houses on top of the trees, which were very simple and barely able to shelter them from the wind and rain.

There are about a hundred people in this group of savages, who make a living by hunting and fishing, living a life of raw hair and drinking blood.

When they saw Yun light the fire and set up a pot to boil the meat, the wild people screamed in shock.

They don't understand how flames come out of nowhere, let alone why an iron pot is used to boil water.

When they smelled the meat, the savages swallowed their saliva, as if they understood why they used fire.

Everyone looked at the iron pot with bright eyes, but because of the big knife in Yun Qing's hand, they didn't dare to act rashly.

On the way to the woods just now, I met a pika. Yun Qing threw a knife at it, and the pika's head and body were completely separated, making the wild man look at her with fear.

After a meal, it was already afternoon, and they had to go back by boat.

Lin Yan stood on the boat and looked at the savages, smiling and waving.

Feng Wenwen was puzzled, "What use are they to us, you have to work hard to make good friends. I just saw that their things are very old and we can't use them."

"Do you have to have a picture?"

"I don't believe you will do useless work."

Lin Yan sighed: "It's rare to run into someone of the same kind when you first come out. If you can communicate more, maybe it will come in handy in the future."

"When I see them, I always think of our past." Yun Qing sighed, she is only 25 years old this year, and she has a deep memory of her previous life.
