Chapter 47 Salty Soup

Zhou Nan has returned to normal this time, and Zhang Can carried her to the forest again, but at this time he could walk slowly and take a break when he was tired. He was not so anxious, so his mentality was relaxed.

"Zhang Can, let me ask you, why didn't you put me down just now? Actually, you can escape first and then call the police, and the police will remove me."

"Nonsense, have you thought the policeman to be a god?" Zhang Can answered angrily, but after thinking about it, he said, "Yes, if I do it again, I will throw you away and I will run away alone!"

Zhou Nan was not angry and said with a smile: "Actually, you can put me here now. If you leave alone, you must be faster. Otherwise, you can go out first and then bring reinforcements, can you?"

Zhang Can shook Zhou Nan on his back and said annoyedly, "I'll throw it away!" After a while, he snorted, "Aren't you very stinky? There are jackals on this mountain, biting your flower-like appearance into pockmarks, are you happy?"

Zhou Nan laughed and leaned on Zhang Can's back and said softly: "Actually... you'd better admit that I'm pretty?"

Zhang Can simply stopped answering. Zhou Nan's grandmother's words were still rippling in her mind. She was not from the same world as her. When she was at her grandmother's house, she thought Zhou Nan's father was a powerful figure like a director, but she never thought she would be the secretary of the municipal party committee and the number one in Jincheng City!

It is a lie to say that he doesn't like girls like Zhou Nan, but Zhang Can is very clear-headed. Like does not mean love, and Zhou Nan is not something he can love, so it's best to restrain himself.

After walking forward for a long time, I saw the sun was west, but there were still trees around, looking endless and there was no road. At this time, Zhang Can basically see where there was a hole in front and the trees were loose, so he went there. However, in the end there was no road. At this time, the sun almost set completely and the sky suddenly became dark!

There were croaking insects everywhere, and occasionally there was a miserable old trolls, which sounded particularly scary.

Zhang Can quickly put Zhou Nan down, then plucked many dried grass leaves, cushioned the ground, and then picked Zhou Nan up and put it on it.

It was already dark, and there were trees blocking the top of your head, and you couldn't see the stars and moon. Zhang Can thought about it again, today is the fourth day of the lunar calendar, where is the moon?

My stomach was so hungry that I was roaring, but there was no way. I didn’t even have a lighter on my body, so I couldn’t make a fire. Zhang Can pulled a handful of grass roots, then wrapped the sleeves and wiped the soil clean, put one in his mouth to chew it, with some sweet sweet juice.

"Check the grass roots, chew some sugar water, it's better than not eating it!" Zhang Can handed Zhou Nan a handful of clean grass roots. In the night, Zhou Nan couldn't see it at all. He groped and took it, took one and chewed it in his mouth. He might be hungry, and even this little juice was delicious, but it was really unsatisfactory.

"Can grassroots be eaten? I just heard about it today!"

Zhang Can smiled and said, "You are a daughter-in-law, so of course you have never suffered such hardships. My family is in the countryside. When I was a child, when I was working with my parents, my parents worked. I went to the fields with my brothers and sisters to find Maojian, thorns, and loquats in the fields. Those things are much better than grass roots."

"Well, what are the hairy tips, thorns, and ground loquats? I have never heard of it before!" Zhou Nan was interesting to hear it, and while asking, he leaned against Zhang Can a little tighter. As soon as it got dark, the temperature dropped, and he felt cold.

Zhang Can pillowed his head with his hands, looked at the unseen head, sighed, and said slowly: "I miss that time so much. Sometimes I really don't want to grow up, and I will have more worries when I grow up..."

After a while, Zhang Can said again: "The hairy needle is actually still grass. It's just in spring. The grass just grew. The thorn wrapped in the grass leaves is called the hairy needle. After tearing it open, it is very sweet in the mouth. The thorn is the tender buds that grow after the thorn blossoms. It is also very sweet when peeled. Loquat is a plant that grows on the ground, and it is full of leaves on the ground. When it is peeled, it is many fruits as big as fingers. If it is red, it is ripe. It can be eaten, but the white one is not ripe. It cannot be eaten. This thing is sweeter."

Zhou Nan was so envious that he heard this, and after a long time, he said quietly: "I am so envious. How great would it be if I could go to such a place with you and eat hairy tips, thorns, and ground loquats!"

Zhang Can smiled and said, "That was our childhood. Nowadays, even from rural areas, they have never picked these things. We had no snacks or toys to play with. Now, there is no such thing in rural areas..."

Zhou Nan was tired, hungry, tired and cold, and slowly couldn't hold up his eyelids, and murmured: "I want to go to pick Maojian, eat thorn strips, eat thorn loquats... eat till the ground loquat..." As he was reciting, he fell asleep and curled up to Zhang Can's body.

Zhang Can called out a few times softly: "Zhou Nan, Zhou Nan..."

Zhou Nan was already asleep. Zhang Can sighed, then took off his coat and covered Zhou Nan with a light thought. He never dreamed that he would encounter kidnapping. I am afraid that Zhou Nan would not have thought that this girl had suffered a lot today. From yesterday to today, two days and one night, they only drank a few sips of water and had never eaten anything. How could they not be hungry?

By midnight, the fog and dew were even heavier. When I was sleeping in the open air, I was on the mountain again, so cold that I couldn't stand it. Although Zhou Nan covered Zhang Can with a coat, she was still trembling with cold. Zhang Can herself was also trembling with cold. In her sleep, she faintly heard Zhou Nan sobbing and shouting: "Mom, I'm so scared...Mom, I'm so scared..."

Zhang Can hugged her tightly in his arms and said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

Zhou Nan snuggled tighter and tighter, and Zhang Can also hugged her completely in his arms. Zhou Nan felt less freezing and gradually fell asleep again.

I don’t know when the birds were yelling on my head, and the oblique sunlight came through the cracks of the leaves. It was dawn!

Zhou Nan opened his eyes and saw Zhang Can's face facing her, his body was also hugged by him, and his head was pillowing on his arm.

Zhou Nan couldn't help but feel embarrassed. With a "ah," he pushed hard, and he got up. However, after Zhang Can pushed her away, he turned to the side and didn't move. Zhou Nan sat up and found that he was still covered with Zhang Can's coat. He felt warm. He glanced at Zhang Can and said angrily: "What are you doing? Pretend to die!"

Zhang Can still remained motionless and ignored her.

Zhou Nan was a little annoyed, pushed it again, and said angrily: "Get up quickly, I can't stand it hungry, so I'd better find a way down the mountain quickly. The first thing I do is to have a big meal..."

Suddenly, Zhou Nan felt a little hot on his hands. He was shocked and quickly leaned over to look. Zhang Can closed his eyes tightly, his face was red, and he reached to his nose to find it. The air was hot. Then he touched his forehead. It was hot, and Zhang Can was having a high fever!

This made Zhou Nan scared her so much that she hurriedly held Zhang Can's face and shouted: "Zhang Can, Zhang Can, wake up, wake up..." He called out to the back, and his voice was a little crying!

Zhang Can was full of hot and hot all over, mainly because she was cold at night, but Zhou Nan was completely covered by Zhang Can's body, so she was fine, Zhang Can had a high fever.

Zhou Nan didn't know what to do. She had always been a very independent and independent girl, but it is undeniable that she has a good foundation and is capable. She has not suffered much in big cities, even abroad. But now, this is the deep mountains, with no people, no roads, tired, hungry and exhausted, and nothing, what should she do?

"Zhang Can, Zhang Can... wake up, don't scare me... really don't scare me..."

After shouting for a while, Zhang Can just didn't wake up, Zhou Nan couldn't help but burst into tears, but she didn't cry. The environment here really made her desperate.

Tears were all sprinkled on Zhang Can's face, and his eyes were hazy and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"Zhou Nan... what kind of soup is you... so salty..."

Zhang Can's weak voice suddenly sounded, Zhou Nan was stunned, then quickly wiped his tears and stared at Zhang Can carefully, and saw that he was indeed slightly open. Although he was weak, he really opened his eyes.

Zhou Nan was overjoyed, grabbed Zhang Can's shoulder and shook it hard, and said crying and laughing: "You...you bad guy, you scared me to death!"

Zhang Can said weakly again: "Where is the soup, what about the salty soup? I still want to drink some..."

"What soup? Where is the soup?" Zhou Nan asked blankly. How could there be soup for him to drink in this wilderness? But after being stunned, he suddenly realized that the soup Zhang Can mentioned was actually her tears. Just now, his tears were like river water. Looking at Zhang Can, his face was dizzy, but it didn't seem like he was joking.

Zhou Nan breathed a sigh of relief. It was better for Zhang Can to wake up than be faint. He was also glad that his tears were shed better, and he woke Zhang Can inadvertently. Maybe the molecule contained in his tears could also be cured.

She touched Zhang Can's forehead again, but the fever did not go away at all. Zhou Nan became anxious again. But she would rather have a fever lie down. Zhang Can was fine so that she would not have to be so anxious and worried.

"Water...water...I want to drink water..." Zhang Can screamed in a daze again.

Zhou Nan was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He pulled out a few more grass roots, wiped the mud, and stuffed them into Zhang Can's mouth, but Zhang Can didn't know how to chew it. Besides, that little juice was also a drop in the bucket, and it would not have any effect on Zhang Can who was burned!

It was already bright, and the surroundings could be seen clearly at this time. Zhou Nan looked at it and saw a crack in the forest on the right, as if it had been for animals like dogs to have been drilled for a long time, and it looked like a road.

Zhou Nan quickly crawled through the small crack in the forest. After walking for more than ten meters, he saw that the front was still like this. He was a little scared. He was worried that he would be too far away from Zhang Can. He was afraid that something would happen to him. He hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether to go forward to see if there was a road. Suddenly, the sound of gurgling water came from his ears!

Zhou Nan was stunned and quickly stood still and listened carefully, confirming that the sound was right in front of the crack of the grass. He couldn't help but get excited. He no longer hesitated. He bent down and hurried forward. After walking about twenty meters, his eyes suddenly became clear. The sunlight made his eyes unable to open. A small stream flowed down from above, and the stream cut off the jungle like a belt.

Zhou Nan was so excited that he ran to the stream. The water was clear and the stream was covered with sand and stones, and there was no trace of soil.

Zhou Nan bent down and his face floated on the water surface. He was very haggard, but still beautiful and charming. He sighed, scooped up water and washed his face. The water was clear and cool. After washing his face, he picked up the stream water and drank a few sips. He was so hungry in his belly that he drank enough even if it was water.

Thinking of Zhang Can again, Zhou Nan did not dare to delay, so he quickly held another handful of water, got up and walked back carefully, but after less than ten steps, the water leaked out!

Zhou Nan bit his lip and ran back. After three or four trips back and forth, he still couldn't take away the water. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
