Pet King - Chapter 1578
Chapter 1578: Chapter 1578-key
“Let’s split up and see which house is more complete. At least, it has to be airtight. We’ll stay in that house tonight. ”
Zhang Zian unloaded his backpack and rubbed his sore shoulders.
The elves were all curious about the deserted village that used to be the residence of beehives and Wrangler, so they all walked into the village to take a look.
He was not sure when the village was abandoned, but since he could see a 1960s Chevrolet, it must have been after this.
As the dense forest provided natural shelter, the strong wind and heavy rain were blocked and weakened by the trees. The Native Americans had some unique skills in building houses, and the most important thing was that there were no naughty children. All these factors added up to ensure that the village was well preserved. At a rough glance, most of the windows were intact.
There were two possibilities when the beekeepers and Wrangler abandoned the village. One was that it was their last time here and they took away all the valuable items that could be taken away. The other was that they felt there was no need to come back to pack up and abandoned the village.
If it was the latter, he might be able to find some useful things in the village.
Taking something that others didn’t want shouldn’t be considered stealing, right?
He didn’t expect that little white would lead the stray dogs to pick up scraps in China, while he would pick up scraps in the United States …
“Squeak! Squeak!”
…
Pi waved its wooden stick and ran back first. It grabbed the corner of Zhang Zian’s clothes and gestured for him to follow it. It looked very excited.
Zhang Zian left his backpack where it was. There were so many wolves guarding it anyway, so he wasn’t afraid of it being stolen.
He followed Pi to the back of a house, where a fallen tree almost crushed the house.
“Squeak squeak.” Pi pointed at the space between the trunk and the ground.
The tree didn’t completely fall to the ground, but maintained a small angle with the ground, as if it was supported by something.
Zhang Zian squatted down to take a look and was surprised to find that it was actually a well made of stone.
Pi, move a little further away. I’ll push this tree to the side.”
He sized it up and felt that the tree was not very thick, so he could try to push it.
“Squeak?”
Pi gestured worriedly, then turned back and pointed at the entrance of the village, wondering if it should ask the wolves for help, because this tree was much thicker than the one that had been used as the bridge.
“Don’t worry, I don’t think it’ll be a problem. ” Zhang Zian rolled up his sleeves, picked up an iron chair from the side, and tried it out. It was quite handy.”I didn’t push it with brute force. You know the lever principle, right? Give me a woman and I can create … No, give me a fulcrum and I can move the earth!”
He put the back of the iron chair into the gap between the Ishii platform and the tree trunk, then pushed the leg of the chair forward, the L-shaped chair acting as a crowbar.
The heavy tree trunk became loose. Every time it rose, it moved a little to the side and finally fell to the ground, revealing the dark well.
Zhang Zian shone the flashlight into the well and saw the reflection of the water.
As the tree trunk had completely blocked the well, there were not many leaves on the water surface. The water looked quite clear. After all, it was underground water.
The other Elfins heard the commotion and ran over to check on the situation.
Thanks to Pi, we found a water source.” He said,”you don’t have to be thirsty tonight.”
“Squeak squeak.” Pi lowered its head shyly.
As a village, no matter how small the village was, it would be too inconvenient without water. The Native Americans, who were proficient in wilderness survival, must have considered this when they built the village.
The wolves did not know of the well’s existence because it was blocked by a tree.
Zhang Zian was confident now that he had found a water source.
“Gah gah gah gah!”
Richard’s scream came from a house not far away.
Zhang Zian and the Elfins ran over and were also shocked. They saw a group of animals flying out of a house with an open door. They screamed at a high frequency and flew into the evening sky, like fast-moving dark clouds.
It was a bat.
They were flying so fast that he couldn’t see their faces clearly. They were probably the big brown bats that were common in North America. They had made the house their nest.
“These flying rats almost scared me to death!” Still in shock, Richard called out with his wings on his chest.
“Your eyes aren’t good. Don’t look around all day. Be careful that you don’t lose your little life one day.” Zhang Zian warned.
Although bats were a kind of beneficial animal, their bodies were very dirty and could easily spread germs. So, there was no need to look at that house. There must be a lot of bat feces in it, and it smelled terrible.
“Zian, this old man found a house that seems to be intact.” Old time tea ran over and said.
“Let’s go and take a look. ”
Zhang Zian and the Elfins followed old time tea to a house and looked at it carefully.
The foundation and walls of the house were made of stones, and the roof was made of wood. It was both strong and light. The West Coast of the United States was a disaster-stricken area. In the event of an earthquake, the stone roof was likely to crush everyone in the house to death. The wooden walls were not safe against the Black Bears in the forest.
The room did look quite intact. Not a single window glass was broken, and the curtains were half-closed, as if the owner could come back at any time.
“Is there anyone inside?”
Even though there was a 99.99% chance that there was no one in the room, he still knocked on the door and asked loudly.
“Who is it?”
A sharp and sinister voice replied, sending chills down one’s spine.
He and the Elfins were stunned and took half a step back in unison. It took a few seconds for them to realize that it was F * cking Richard who had imitated a human’s voice.
“Gah gah!” Knowing that he was going to be beaten up, Richard quickly flew to a higher place to hide.
Zhang Zian didn’t have the time to pay attention to it. He tried to push the door, but it was locked and very strong.
It seemed like he had no choice but to break in through the window.
He was about to break the window and unlock the window to enter the room when he suddenly remembered that in many United States movies and TV series, Americans often hid the key near the door, such as under the mat of the door, above the door frame, or under the flower pot on the windowsill … Especially in a holiday house like this, the owner would not come once in a few months, and it was easy to lose the key with him.
With a thought, he fumbled around the door. Anyway, he wouldn’t get pregnant if he tried, so it wouldn’t be too late to break in through the window if he couldn’t find anything.
Once the integrity of the house was destroyed, it was likely to become a bat’s nest. In the future, if any travelers came here, they could only camp in the wild in disappointment …
It was better to think about others.
“Kaka! What are you looking for, you idiot?” Richard could not help but ask.
“I …”
Before Zhang Zian could think of how to reply to this B * tch bird, he moved a natural stone under the porch. There was a metal key under the stone.
