I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 235
"Wait a minute, how did you get here? Did you fall?" Li Yan remembered something and asked in shock.
"...It seems...that's it." Qian Shou Cun Zheng hesitated, but finally told Li Yan.
"Don't move, let me check. Is it really okay if you fell from such a high place?"
Li Yan put down the flashlight worriedly and asked Qian Shou Cun Zheng to sit down. He began to carefully press his hands on Qian Shou Cun Zheng's ribs. Qian Shou Cun Zheng was immediately startled, but he always felt that such an examination was important. She could only endure it and let Li Yan pinch it again and again.
After a person falls from a high altitude, he may not notice whether there is a problem, but there may be fractures or even organ dislocation. Li Yan is well aware of these basic knowledge. He carefully checked the ribs, back bones, and head. After touching his limbs, he checked to see if there were any bruises or the like. Except for scratches, he was completely unscathed.
Li Yan understood. It might be because he didn't fall directly, but rolled down. In addition, it had rained heavily in the past few days, and the soil in the forest was not hard. With this piece of soft grass as a buffer, it only allowed him to fall down. Qian Shou Village only suffered some minor injuries.
"You are really lucky, Teacher Qianju..."
Li Yan touched the grass and said with lingering fear. Otherwise, even if it rolls down, the injury will be serious. However, during this period, there were always reports about the landslide caused by rainy weather in Okinawa. On the contrary, it was a blessing in disguise, and the Senju Village was protected for one expedition.
Qianshou, Qianshou, such a pen name is really the right one.
Qian Shou Cun Zheng didn't quite understand what Li Yan meant, but she roughly understood that she had just rolled down. She had fallen accurately and was not seriously injured. She didn't know how to react, so she could only smile. Then, she looked around. Asked: "Teacher Uesugi, where are the others? Did you come here alone?"
"...Yes, we will search separately, and then I will find it here alone."
Li Yan hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said to Qian Shou Cun Zheng.
He had to lie.
Search and rescue operations are simply impossible to carry out at night. In the end, Kagurazaka Iris still called the police, and the police sent a search team to come for support. However, they repeatedly asked Kagurazaka and other foreign tourists who were enthusiastic and willing to participate in the search not to enter that forest, because even the search team was unable to do so. There was a team member who disappeared more than ten years ago. The area is very weird. Almost the entire area is too similar. There are also many landslides. It has always been regarded as a place for courage test by some insiders, although it is really dangerous. The area has been sealed off, but to respect local customs, the torii forest has always been open, so the courage test is generally only held in safe areas.
However, Li Yan had fought several desperate battles with supernatural monsters. He was worried that Qian Shou Village Zheng might have been brought here by being deceived. Such ghost incidents could not be solved by waiting for more than ten hours for the search team to come over and search carefully. He was born in an area on the border of China's forests. He has listened to his grandfather's warnings not to go near the forest since he was a child. He has also seen with his own eyes the scene where search teams have been unable to find people for decades.
Human beings cannot conquer nature, and what they can do is only a gift from nature. Human power is so insignificant, so no matter how many people come without forest experience, they may end up dead in this ancient forest.
Therefore, he secretly left his faith behind and came here. I relied on my knowledge of the mountains and forests since childhood, as well as my tracking skills from reading books and asking questions. In particular, I spent a lot of effort to use the [editing system] in my mind to zoom in to a one-hundred-meter semi-axis. It is said that I searched with all my efforts before I found it. This is a missing person.
If there were many people searching for her in this forest, Qianju Cunzheng would feel a lot more at ease. In fact, the situation had basically not changed. He was walking halfway, and the red rope marking the mark was not enough, so he continued walking. The choice between going back and going back was like a test of life or death... He finally made up his mind and chose the former.
——[Teacher Qian Shou, who is only in the second grade of junior high school. I don’t want her to lose her life in vain alone in the forest. I have been taken care of by her. She is a very good child, so I feel that I have the ability and the means. I found her, so don’t worry, wait for me to come back. 】
This is how I believe in writing the last paragraph.
"I don't know if Teacher Qian Shou was protected by the gods. It was a blessing in disguise, because after he rolled down the hillside, he didn't dare to walk easily and waited quietly until I came over. Normally, in such a situation, he might have fallen off a cliff or been swept up by a river. It’s time to leave...Walking around at night is the biggest mistake when encountering mountains, but many people don’t know this...Next, it’s my turn..."
He silently took out his cell phone, only to find that it was not only offline, but...even the compass was erratic, and he didn't know how to find a way to confirm the direction.
"..."
He stayed away from the possible landslide and distributed the food in his backpack to Qian Shou Cun Zheng in an open space. He put the spare warm clothes on her frozen body and watched Qian Shou Cun Zheng eat the food. With a reassuring expression on his face, Li Yan, whose palms were already wet with cold sweat, couldn't help but secretly clenched his fists and raised his head to look at the vast and dark sea of trees.
"I have always believed that humans cannot conquer nature... But now, even nature cannot be conquered. We must get out alive..."
Li Yan raised his head and looked at the sky, his eyes unusually firm.
He, so small, kept enlarging this forest, enlarging it, and enlarging it again... On the left side of almost the entire ancient forest, the dim flashlight light seemed like a fallen leaf in the vast sea of trees in the strong wind. , struggling hard...
Chapter 146 The philosophy of the light novel master
In a dark forest, a bright light was looking for a way to climb up the mountain. Under extremely poor visibility, Li Yan and Qian Shou Cunzheng adopted a safe search method and walked up.
However, after almost walking for a while, they found that they were not as lucky as they imagined. They soon encountered another higher fault zone and reached a dead end.
When he tried to climb up, he also found that although the lowest section of the mountain wall at a height of six to seven meters had a certain slope, it was broken quite smoothly. There was no help point for Li Yan to climb back up. This is the so-called rolling. It is easy to get down, but it is difficult to climb up the ghost slope. Walking along the left side, the slope became higher and higher after a few hundred meters, but there were no vines or trees tall enough to climb on the edge of the mountain wall.
"Oops, I suddenly remembered that Okinawa is in an earthquake zone like Japan. I'm afraid there are many such faults around it. Walking in this ancient forest with dense grass and dense woods at night, I'm afraid it's not You can't hit the air with one foot." Li Yan thought to himself in fear.
"We have to go back to the original place and analyze the surrounding terrain." Li Yan picked up a notebook in his pocket, drew the route he just walked, and said calmly.
"...Okay." Qian Shou Cun Zheng nodded and said.
"The magnetic field here is very strange, the compass cannot work, and there is basically no signal. This is almost like a closed island. Mr. Qianju, if you study well in geography class, you should know a concept called self-drawn map. The lines must be drawn well. It doesn’t matter if they are not precise. However, use contour lines to record the differences in terrain. Record the high and low parts and the route map that you have walked. In fact, it will also help to a certain extent to avoid walking on the wrong road at night. On the way back.”
Li Yan explained to Qian Shou Cun Zheng.
"...Contour lines?" Qian Shou Cun Zheng was slightly startled. He suddenly heard a geographical term and asked in surprise.
"I have roughly drawn the map trend here all the way here. Even though I just walked through it, I just recorded the terrain that I could see. I marked the distance of the route I walked and marked the obvious coordinates around it. To avoid the danger of walking in circles in the dark woods, take careful notes along the way. If you reach a dead end, remember to return to the original coordinate position you knew and start looking for a road in another direction again. Find your way around clearly, so you won't be too busy and take the wrong path in the dark."
Li Yan further explained.
In other words, Li Yan never deviated from his original direction from beginning to end, recorded the direction of his entrance, and showed his forward rotation all the way. It is estimated that others would have fainted after seeing such a record, but Li Yan was very clear How can I go back if I want to reverse it?
In fact, this is somewhat similar to the recording method of walking a maze.
"Although I don't understand, I always feel that Mr. Uesugi is very powerful." Qianjumura Zheng looked at Li Yan with a confused expression and thought to himself.
The two of them returned to the original position, where Li Yan had already built a stone tower. After counting the number of stones and confirming that this was the [47] sign, Li Yan recorded it and began to explore the other side. .
However, when walking along the road on the right, it was different. The mountain walls were high and low, and it was difficult to find a way to climb up. However, the road was always normal. I walked for a while without encountering any fault cliffs. I walked in smoothly. Another flat forest area.
According to the route map recorded by Li Yan, their direction should have been a roundabout way back to the entrance of the forest. Although it was unclear whether it would be a dead end if they continued walking, it was good luck to follow the right direction.
However, Qian Shou Cun Zheng, who had been bumpy along the way, couldn't help but squat down and sit on the ground in pain.
"What's wrong?" Li Yan realized something was wrong and asked immediately.
"...My foot...seems to be twisted." Qian Shou Cunzheng's face turned pale with pain, and he finally revealed the extent of his injury.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that your ankle was sprained? You shouldn't continue to endure it. If the injury gets worse, it will only be more dangerous."
Li Yan leaned down and checked Qian Shou Cun Zheng's ankle. Sure enough, it was bruised. He didn't check it, although the ankle injury was not a serious matter.
He leaned down with his back to Qian Shou Village Zheng and said, "I'll carry you on my back. If you really can't walk, we can only wait until daybreak to find the way out."
"Ah...Okay." Qian Shou Cun Zheng seemed to understand Li Yan's attitude, became a little nervous, and lay on Li Yan's back without any further refusal. As a result, he discovered to some surprise that although Li Yan looked a little thin He is tall and ordinary, but his shoulders are wider than expected, and he feels stronger than his father.
Li Yan's physical strength was almost exhausted, especially using his [editing system] power to find people required a lot of energy. He had never used the editing system for so long. Fortunately, he recovered after a little repair in the middle. With a little energy, he started walking with Qian Shou Cun Zheng on his back.
This forest is filled with mist, and the searchlight hanging on the chest cannot illuminate the places too far away. In the cold mountain wind, the sound of rustling leaves makes people feel too quiet.
Being too quiet is not a good thing.
Li Yan concentrated on memorizing his direction. If there was sunshine tomorrow, he could determine the direction directly with his watch, and the chance of successfully escaping from danger would be higher.
Walking to the center of the woods, suddenly, a large number of fireflies with a faint luster poured in from the uphill side, like gem-like sparks in the darkness, among the hazy woods, Countless fireflies danced in the grass and woods, like a dreamlike scene.
"What's going on..." Li Yan asked in surprise as he looked at the sea of fireflies that filled him and Qianshou Village Zheng.
The fireflies swimming under his feet seemed to interfere with his sense of direction, although it was not obvious.
"Teacher Uesugi, I just saw this group of fireflies. I originally thought it would be one of the wonders here, so I walked into this forest, but ended up losing my way. It's April now... It's true. Are the fireflies out..."
