Chapter 327 Heading to Death Valley
At this time, Old Li was still somewhat skeptical.
I thought that maybe it just smells good, but it may not taste good.
He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
The fish fillet tastes fresh, tender, sour and spicy.
Full of umami flavor, just the right amount.
The taste of pickled cabbage is almost completely integrated into the fish, mixed with the freshness of the fish, plus the aroma of garlic, chili and pepper. How can it be so delicious? ?
Captain Sun and Battalion Commander Zheng watched and swallowed their saliva "Gudong! Gudong!"
At this time, Song Shi handed him a spoon.
"Master Li, please have another sip of the soup!"
Old Li took the soup from her hand and took another sip.
This sauerkraut fish soup is delicious, fresh, sour, spicy and refreshing, and is more flavorful than fish.
He closed his eyes and savored it carefully, unable to help but feel a myriad of emotions in his heart.
Fish is his favorite thing in his life, but this is the first time he has tasted such delicious fish and fish soup!
The passion in my heart is surging.
It's worth it! It's worth it!
Song Shiwei looked at his expression and roughly guessed the result. He couldn't help but ask, "Master Li, how is it?"
Old Li slowly opened his eyes and nodded, "Okay!"
When Song Shiwei and Captain Sun heard this, they all laughed.
"Then Master Li, can you tell us now what exactly is in this Death Valley? We are running out of time, so we have to trouble you to tell us quickly!"
But Old Li waved his hands.
Captain Sun thought he was going to go back on his word, and said anxiously, "Master Li, you......"
But he raised his head, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Forget it, forget it. I'll risk my old bones and go with you guys!"
Song Shiwei didn't expect that he would be willing to go with her.
Of course, it would be best if he could follow them. After all, the situation inside changes rapidly. Even if he told them what happened, if they didn't recognize it, they might be in danger.
Captain Sun and Captain Zheng were both extremely surprised.
“That’s great!! That’s great!!”
"Master Li, there is no time to delay. When are we going to set out?"
Old Li took a steamed bun and started eating it with the pickled fish.
"Don't worry, such delicious fish meat, how can we waste it? I will take you there after I eat it!"
No matter how anxious Song Shiwei was, he had no choice but to agree.
Fortunately, Old Li ate very quickly. After finishing his meal, he found some Chinese herbal medicine, ground it into juice using a small stone mortar at home, and put it in several small porcelain bottles.
Then one of them gave them one.
Captain Sun looked at the grass juice in the bottle with a strange smell and asked in confusion: "What is this..."
Old man Li didn't even look at him.
"It's for repelling insects. Before entering the valley, apply it on all of you. The effect of this herbal juice will last for two or three days. If we can't get out in two or three days, you have to apply more!"
As he spoke, he went into the kitchen and took out a lot of dry and hard biscuits, wrapped them carefully in wax paper, and put them in a small leather bag.
Each of them was handed a bag.
Song Shiwei took a look at the seven or eight hard-as-stone biscuits in the bag, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
Isn't this similar to modern compressed cookies?
Although it is dry and hard, it is very resistant and can be preserved for a longer period of time by covering it with grease and wrapping it in a small leather bag to isolate it from rain and moisture.
He also took out several water bottles and greeted Captain Sun and the others.
"Young men, don't just stand there, fill up your water bottles quickly. Don't just drink water when you get to the valley!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Hongbing and his men quickly took out four or five military water bottles from the vehicle, filled them with water one by one, and carried them on their backs.
In addition to this, Old Li also brought out a first aid box.
This really surprised Song Shiwei.
"Are you a doctor??"
Old Li nodded.
"My ancestors were palace doctors, but the medical skills were lost during my father's generation. However, a lot of medical skills were left behind, and I figured them out on my own! The medicines in this medicine box are all the ones I made myself!"
Sun Hongbing suddenly understood. No wonder he had never heard anyone say that this Mr. Li knew medical skills. It turned out that he had figured it out on his own.
"Then you..."
Old Li seemed to be thinking about the days before when he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and his eyes gradually became profound.
"At first, I went to collect herbs and entered by mistake. Fortunately, I brought a lot of herbs that I prepared myself. Usually, I would be gone for several days. I happened to bring a lot of water and dry food with me, so I was lucky enough to get out!"
As he spoke, he looked at the sky and waved at them, "Let's go, hurry up, we have to find a place to stay before dark, otherwise, it will be even more dangerous inside!"
Song Shiwei thought about it, picked up the salt shaker on the table, and then followed him out.
After all, we don't know what the place is like. If there is a problem with the food, we can find some food nearby. Salt can increase the taste of food, sterilize and disinfect. At the same time, it can be used as a tonic salt when dehydrated. In addition to these, salt has many other uses. Anyway, it is a good thing in the wild.
In his previous life, Song Shiwei also participated in a variety show with his friends, which was about wilderness survival.
In Death Valley, everything is unknown. It should be similar to survival in the wild, right?
After everything was ready, they prepared to set off. Captain Zheng found their equipment for field missions in the trunk of the car, which included flashlights, matches, a small pot, salt and seasonings, two military knives, a small shovel, hemp rope and other things.
He directly put the equipment on his back, but gave one of the military knives to Song Shiwei.
"Sister-in-law, take this knife. It will be useful if you are in danger!"
Song Shiwei was also quite satisfied. This military knife looked very sharp. She was just worried about not having something suitable.
"Thank you!"
Sun Hongbing drove them all the way to the vicinity of Death Valley.
Originally he wanted to go with them, but Song Shiwei and Captain Zheng disagreed.
"Captain Sun, there are too many things outside that need your command! Captain Zheng and I will go to Death Valley!"
Lao Zheng also nodded: "Yes, we can go, you still need to search for Ting Yue and the others outside!"
Sun Hongbing also understood, but he just didn't trust them.
"Then you must be careful! I will send someone to check on you at any time and wait for you to come out!"
Song Shiwei and Lao Zheng nodded: "Okay!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Old Li shouted to them, "Let's go, it will be dark if we don't leave now!"
So the three of them walked along the outer cemeteries and into the depths of the canyon.
There were actually people guarding this place. When they saw them driving over, someone went back to the village to report it early, and as a result, a large group of people came over.
