Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 381: Survival in Desperate Situations (Second update, please vote for me)

A few minutes after Li Teng left, Liu Hui also stood up from the ground and walked slowly towards Stone City.

Ten minutes later, Li Teng finally arrived outside the walls of Stone City after an arduous trek.

The city wall is four meters high and has been polished on the outside, making it impossible to climb.

The city gate was made of two opposite iron gates. Although they were rusty, they were still very strong and were bolted from the inside.

There's no way to get in.

He had no choice but to return to the city wall, and looked back at Liu Hui, who was slowly walking over from a distance.

Liu Hui was obviously exhausted a long time ago. The walk was extremely difficult. She arrived at the city wall ten minutes later than Li Teng. She was about to fall to the ground as soon as her body went limp.

Li Teng rushed to meet her and supported her.

"You haven't remembered who I am yet?" Liu Hui saw that the movements on Li Teng's hands were so clean, and she felt that it was not his style at all.

"Have you... recovered your memory?" Li Teng smiled.

"I recovered when I fell into the hole and you pulled me up." Liu Hui answered Li Teng weakly.

Li Teng didn't say any more, and slowly sat down with Liu Hui in his arms.

"When I was away, it was so romantic! So happy! So many beauties..." Liu Hui looked unhappy.

"They are all ordinary friends." Li Teng looked helpless.

"Would you believe this?" Liu Hui continued to be angry.

"It's true. I've only done that with you. We have a very pure friendship with them. If you tell a lie, you'll be struck by lightning." Li Teng swore. These words are very confident because he didn't lie.

"If you really got struck by lightning if you lied, there would be no men in the world." Liu Hui curled her lips.

"..."

The two rested for a while and after recovering their strength, Liu Hui asked Li Teng to throw her onto the city wall.

"You have to be careful. If you find something is wrong in the city, come down immediately." Li Teng told Liu Hui a few words.

"You don't lack women. If I die, you can take off the burden. How nice." Liu Hui disagreed.

"Looking at what you said, am I such a heartless person?"

"You are not heartless, you are very affectionate and show mercy at all times."

"..."

Of course, Li Teng couldn't throw Liu Hui up the four-meter-high city wall, and he didn't have the strength.

The method used was still the same as before when climbing rocks. Li Teng squatted on a horse and held it with both hands. Liu Hui took a slight run and jumped onto the wall. Li Teng saw the right moment and grabbed her soles and pushed her up to help her. Liu Hui stretched out her hands to climb. Stay on the edge of the city wall and then pull your body up.

In fact, the height that Li Teng needed help from was only a little over one meter.

Not long after Liu Hui reached the city wall, she entered the stone city and opened the latch of the iron gate. Then Li Teng cooperated with her and pushed open the iron gate of the city wall.

It was quiet in Stone City, and there didn't seem to be any traces of human activity.

There are some skeletons of soldiers beside the city wall, still wearing old armor and rusty knives next to them.

According to Liu Hui's description, there are also skeletons of such soldiers on the city wall.

Unlike the mummy soldiers crawling out from the bottom of the desert outside, these skeleton soldiers did not move.

Li Teng tried to get closer, picked up the rusty knife beside them, and slashed several times at their skeletons.

As a result, their skeletons were easily chopped into pieces.

Although he felt that these soldiers were no threat, Li Teng would still chop him to pieces every time he encountered such a soldier.

The rusty knife was so badly corroded that it was basically impossible to use it for cutting.

Based on the architectural conditions inside, Li Teng guessed that this might be a very ancient military castle.

Stone City is not big, with a main building in the middle and some low buildings next to it.

In the low building, there were simple pavilions on the ground, with many bones lying on them.

It looks like it should be the residence of these soldiers.

There are also furniture, wooden beds and the like appearing in some buildings, which should be the dormitories of senior officers.

The main building in the middle should be the meeting hall.

There is also a skeleton wearing armor sitting on the main seat, and there is a big knife on the table next to it.

Li Teng quickly picked up the sword and found that it was relatively well preserved. Except for the wood on the handle being somewhat rotten, the blade was not very rusty. If it was polished, it would be a good weapon.

Behind the meeting hall is a large kitchen.

Several large stone troughs were built around the kitchen, which were filled with rainwater. They were probably the troughs originally used by the military castle to store water.

Then there was a large amount of charcoal stacked in the kitchen pantry, which seemed to be quite well preserved.

The kitchen has a stone stove. Unfortunately, the large iron pots are all rusty, but there are also many various earthen pots, which can also be used to boil water and cook things.

Li Teng found flint and some fire starter materials, took some charcoal to ignite and stuffed it into the stove. He then placed a large earthenware jar on the appropriate bayonet of the stove, and took some other small earthenware jars from Water was taken from the storage tank, poured into a large earthen pot and boiled.

After finishing all this, Li Teng came to the city wall outside and waved to the people in the desert from a distance.

Anna and others also recovered some strength. After seeing Li Teng on the city wall, they began to walk slowly towards Stone City.

Li Teng continued to search the city and accidentally discovered another weapons room.

There are a large number of metal swords, sticks, shields and other objects stored inside, which are relatively well preserved and can still become sharp after being ground on the whetstone outside.

Next to the weapons room, there is a large training room.

The upright puppet had knife marks all over its body.

There are some old parchments hanging on the walls, with some pictures drawn on them.

Most of the drawings on the parchment are the most basic chopping and chopping movements used to train soldiers, nothing special.

But there was some runes written on a piece of parchment that Li Teng didn't recognize, and he didn't know what they were for.

By the time others arrived at Stone City, Liu Hui had already boiled several jars of boiling water.

After drinking water, everyone's spirits were greatly improved.

I didn't expect to find such a place in a desperate situation, and finally be able to settle down a little.

The biggest problem now is food.

"It's almost time to rest, it's time to go hunting."

Li Teng divided the labor. He, Anna and Liu Hui went to hunt the giant insects. Gao Fei and Huang Xun were responsible for transporting the prey, and the remaining three stayed behind to cook the prey.

After drinking water, everyone's physical fitness improved a lot.

The hunting team walked in the direction of the insect swarm for more than half an hour. When they were almost out of the desert, they discovered a lone giant insect.

With the knives in hand, the three of them cooperated. Anna and Liu Hui lured the insects in front, and Li Teng followed behind and chopped. In a short time, they successfully killed a giant insect.
