Chapter 213
Chapter 213
Hearing Lin Xingbang say that Jinping and the others were still in the mountains, Shi Lin frowned, did not speak, and waited for Lin Xingbang’s next words.
The sudden heavy rain triggered a mountain torrent, accompanied by a landslide. The mountains were indeed very dangerous at this time.
But for an old hunter like Li Jinping, the probability of a real accident was not high.
Everyone was familiar with the situation in the mountains, and they basically knew a few temporary shelters for sheltering from the rain and spending the night, so it was not so easy to get into trouble.
Lin Xingbang continued:
“I’m ready, wait a little longer. If they don’t come back at night, I will organize the young and middle-aged people in the village to go into the mountains to look for people tomorrow morning.”
“At that time, you hunters will be needed to lead the team. Try to drink less at night. You may have to set off early tomorrow morning.”
In the snowy winter, everyone is used to staying in the house and drinking a few glasses of wine to warm up. Lin Xingbang found Shi Lin mainly to remind him not to drink too much tonight, as he might be needed tomorrow.
“Okay, if you want to go up the mountain, just call me tomorrow morning.”
Shi Lin nodded and agreed directly.
For the villagers living in the mountain village, this kind of thing cannot be refused. After all, no one can guarantee that they will not need help from everyone.
This era is not like the later generations. If there is any problem in the mountain, you can call for rescue. In this era, if there is any problem in the mountain, the most likely people to come to rescue are the people in the village!
Lin Xingbang nodded and said:
“If you want to go up the mountain to find someone tomorrow, remember to bring your bear cub with you and let it help find it.”
After the last time he found the big yellow cattle, Lin Xingbang now also recognized Shi Lin’s bear cub’s sense of smell.
Speaking of this, Shi Lin said helplessly:
“It may not be possible to take the bear cub with you. Its front limbs were bitten by wolves. Now one of its front limbs cannot be used and it cannot run.”
Today, the bear cub walked on three legs at home. The injured front limbs could not exert force.
Even if it has a strong recovery ability, Shi Lin feels that it will be difficult to let the bear cub go up the mountain early tomorrow morning. Let it rest for a while.
“I also said that your bear cub is good and can help find people. Since it is injured, forget it.”
Lin Xingbang felt a little sorry, but he couldn’t force it, and continued,
“Just remember not to drink too much at night. I will notify everyone from house to house now. If Jinping and others come back at night, I will notify everyone.”
“Yeah.” Shi Lin nodded.
After the two chatted, Lin Xingbang continued to notify other families, while Shi Lin walked to Uncle Niu’s house with two fish and hydrogen peroxide.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Uncle Niu’s house, he saw Uncle Niu stepping on the ladder to get on the roof. Aunt Niu was holding him up under the ladder.
Seeing this, Shi Lin walked into the yard and said:
“Uncle Niu, Aunt Niu, what are you doing?”
Hearing Shi Lin’s voice, Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu turned their heads to look at him.
Uncle Niu on the ladder said: “It rained heavily just now, and the roof was broken in several places. I’ll go up to fix it.”
Their house is also an old house, an adobe house from the 1950s. They have lived in it for more than 30 years, and it depends on repairs all the time.
Hearing this, Shi Lin put down his things, walked forward and said:
“Repairing the roof should be done by young people. Uncle Niu, come down. I’m quick, I’ll do it.”
“Yes, you should come down and let Linzi help. We are not outsiders. You are trembling, I’m scared.”
Hearing what Shi Lin said, Aunt Niu immediately agreed.
Uncle Niu is really old, almost seventy years old.
At this moment, I don’t know if it’s because of the cold, fear of heights, or some signs of Parkinson’s disease, his hands are shaking badly.
Aunt Niu is really worried about letting him go up to repair the roof.
Just now, Aunt Niu wanted to go out to find someone to help, but Uncle Niu insisted that there was no need to trouble others, he could do it himself…
“Okay, okay, then I’ll trouble you, Linzi.”
Uncle Niu was no longer stubborn at this moment, and he came down from the ladder and let Shi Lin go up.
His health is indeed not as good as before. His movements have become slow and his body is not resistant to cold. He shivered with cold when he climbed up the ladder and was blown by the wind.
It would take him a long time to repair the roof. Let’s let the young people do it.
After Shi Lin went up, the efficiency was obviously much higher.
The place where the roof was leaking, Uncle Niu had already found it and marked it.
Now Shi Lin only needs to go up, clean up the leaking place a little, remove the old broken tiles, replace them with new tiles, and then cover it with thatch.
Repairing the roof of this old house is so simple. Shi Lin only took more than ten minutes. With the help of Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu,After they closed the door, the roof repair was completed.
“Linzi, this time it’s really thanks to you, otherwise we two would have no idea how long it would take.”
After Shi Lin came down from the roof, Uncle Niu thanked him.
Hearing this, Shi Lin smiled and said:
“Uncle Niu, next time you need help, just call me.
If I’m not at home, you can call my brother Jun and the others. For this kind of thing, let the young people do it.
My father is younger than you, and he always lets the young people do this kind of thing now.”
This is indeed the truth, but the main reason is that Lao Shi fell down and now he really can’t climb the ladder to repair the roof.
Speaking of this, Aunt Niu sighed repeatedly,
“Well, it’s still good for your parents to be like this. Their children are around, and they can help them with anything.”
“We, your brother Jianming is in the county, and he only comes back once a month. He always leaves after eating. We can’t count on him for anything…”
Shi Lin smiled at Aunt Niu’s words and didn’t respond.
Whether you are with your parents or not, there are many problems. It can only be said that everyone has his own way of living.
He changed the subject and said:
“Uncle, Aunt, I sent eggs and meat to Brother Jianming and his family this morning. Brother Jianming went to work at that time, and it was my sister-in-law who took it away…”
“In addition, I also asked the doctor to prescribe two bottles of hydrogen peroxide. Uncle, use this to disinfect the wound of the big yellow cattle to prevent its wound from worsening.”
However, after Shi Lin took out the hydrogen peroxide, Uncle Niu said that he had treated the wound of the big yellow cattle.
For some minor wounds, he simply applied cow dung and loess.
For the more serious bites, he also found some herbs to wrap them. They were all taken care of.
There was no need for this hydrogen peroxide.
Shi Lin opened his mouth,
“Ah, is this really useful? I remember that this method didn’t seem to work. Cow dung and loess have negative effects on wounds…”
He remembered that he had read reports in his previous life that this kind of folk method was not only useless, but also had negative effects.
Loess has little effect on wounds and can only simply absorb dirt.
And cow dung may contain pathogenic bacteria, which not only cannot disinfect and promote wound recovery, but may also cause infection and worsen the wound.
Uncle Niu said confidently:
“Don’t worry, I have been raising cattle for so many years and have always used this method. It won’t be wrong.
Take this hydrogen peroxide back with you and return it to the county next time. No problem.”
