Qiao Xuejun briefly considered the silly cycling blogger who broke into her house today, but then gave up.
That silly blogger has a car and can repair things, especially repairing things, which is a very popular skill in the doomsday. She bought a lot of machines, generators, and tillers, all of which may break down. If she has a repairman, the pressure will be much less.
Moreover, he is a young man with high martial arts skills and can intimidate outsiders.
But this is both his advantage and his disadvantage.
If they really fought, Qiao Xuejun was not sure that she could win him. Moreover, after what happened today, Qiao Xuejun also stabbed him. What if he held a grudge and wanted revenge? Qiao Xuejun did not dare to keep such a person around.
So Qiao Xuejun gave up on him without much thought.
Having made up her mind, Qiao Xuejun never procrastinates. She opened her eyes before 6 a.m. the next morning. It was the end of April, and the sun rose around 6:30 a.m.
Qiao Xuejun went out at 6:10, still carrying the same equipment on his back, but he also brought a sterilized knife. It was a fruit knife that he had used to cut potato seeds before. Today he had to remove the piece of bark that was growing wood ear mushrooms.
The sun hasn't risen yet and the temperature hasn't reached its highest point. Qiao Xuejun looked at the temperature with the light from her cell phone and it was 29 degrees Celsius.
She was also alert to her surroundings, but the sun was about to rise, and the mad cow disease would probably start to hide. And unlike the night when she carried firewood, she was traveling light and made little noise, so she would not alarm the monsters.
When Qiao Xuejun reached the foot of the mountain, the sun's light began to slowly emerge.
Go up the mountain.
Qiao Xuejun had a clear purpose. If the girl went up the mountain and didn't come down, the cave would be the most likely place for her to hide.
However, it may also be the most dangerous place.
The closer Qiao Xuejun got to the cave, the more dangerous the situation became. She heard the sound of a monster - the sticky, gurgling howl, like that of a wild beast.
Qiao Xuejun took out a slingshot from the leather bag at her waist and loaded it with steel balls.
When we arrived at the cave, it was already 6:40 and the sun had risen completely. However, due to the special location of this mountain, the daylight period is very short. The sun had not yet shone over, and the monster did not leave.
Qiao Xuejun hid behind a thick fir tree and saw the cave and the monster wandering in front of the cave that was unwilling to leave.
It paced back and forth at the entrance of the cave, but did not go in.
Qiao Xuejun raised her eyebrows, a little confused, but her doubts were soon dispelled.
There is also some mugwort at the entrance of the cave.
The girl found mugwort on this mountain and put it at the entrance of the cave, so the monster did not go in.
Not bad, quite smart.
Qiao Xuejun raised the slingshot and aimed it at the shoulder of the person infected with mad cow disease.
She has also been practicing the accuracy of her slingshot. After a month of practice, it is much more accurate than the first time she used it. The last time she faced the mad cow disease patients head-on, as long as she crippled their hands and feet, they would be so stupid that they would lose their balance and their fighting ability would be greatly reduced.
Qiao Xuejun was not in a hurry to attack. The monster did not see her and was just walking back and forth at the entrance of the cave. She had plenty of time to aim.
The monster walked for a while and then stopped for a while. Qiao Xuejun's aim at moving objects was still not good, so she waited patiently for the best time for the monster to stop.
The time is now!
She was quick-eyed and quick-handed. When the monster stopped where her steel ball was aimed, she pulled the leather bowstring to its full strength, then released her hand after accumulating force.
"bump!"
The steel ball hit exactly where Qiao Xuejun was aiming, ten rings!
Qiao Xuejun immediately loaded another steel ball and hit the monster's other arm.
“Bang!” “Crack!”
Once again.
This time, Qiao Xuejun also heard the familiar sound of bones rubbing against each other, which hurt the monster's bones.
“Ah! Ouch—”
The monster tried to turn its head, but it had already fallen to the ground. It let out a miserable wail that made people tremble with fear.
In this battle, Qiao Xuejun only used two steel balls to knock the monster to the ground, and it happened so quickly that the monster didn't even have time to react.
It worked.
The battle stimulated the adrenaline to surge, and Qiao Xuejun's highly tense nerves immediately became excited, and his temples were throbbing.
Qiao Xuejun inspected the surroundings again. Apart from this monster, there was nothing else around for the time being. It was daybreak, and the monsters would not be so active and walk around.
Qiao Xuejun avoided the place where the monster fell, took out a flashlight to illuminate the entrance of the cave, and walked into the cave.
"Is anyone there?" Qiao Xuejun shouted.
No one responded.
Qiao Xuejun shouted again: "I am a human, little carpenter, I have something to talk to you about, come out and talk!"
She stated directly why she came.
"Woof woof! Awooo--" Qiao Xuejun heard a dog barking not far ahead.
The dog is here.
But as soon as the dog spoke, the sound suddenly stopped as if someone covered its mouth.
It seems that the person is still there and is covering his mouth, so he should not be injured.
There is a corner of a cave ahead, and the flashlight can't shine in.
Qiao Xuejun stopped moving forward. She thought for a moment, took out a piece of dry bread that she had packed before going out from her backpack, and threw it into the bag.
"I have food. I'll take you home. I need you to help me with some woodworking tools. If you agree, come out. If not, forget it."
There was no movement inside. Qiao Xuejun thought for a moment and said, "I have dealt with the monster outside."
This time, a response finally came from inside, the voice was very weak: "It's you... the beautiful woman who went up the mountain to collect firewood."
Qiao Xuejun: "...My last name is Qiao."
"Sister Qiao. How do you know I'm good at carpentry?" the person inside asked tentatively again.
