Chapter 35: Searching for Food
was said by Yan Jingnian, Cui Zhiwei felt a little embarrassed. She has memories of her previous life, how can she be like a three-year-old child...... She glanced at Cui Zhili, no, she was as useless as a five-year-old child.
So he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said stubbornly: "I don't want to cry either, it's not you who said here and there." ”
Cui Zhiyi stepped forward and hugged her, "Okay, it's all the fault of the second brother and your third brother." He coaxed again, "As long as the eldest brother is here, they will find us soon, and you don't have to worry too much." Sure enough, in the hearts of their brothers and sisters, Cui Zhixing is more reliable than Cui Jin.
Cui Zhiwei nodded, "I know." He reminded a few more people, "However, we still have to go there until they find us, or we will starve to death if we stay in the cave." ”
As soon as her words fell, Cui Zhili's stomach rumbled very cooperatively. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I'm really hungry." ”
"Then let's go over and find something to eat first. However," Cui Zhiwei continued to remind, "We'd better leave one person here." ”
After several people looked at her, she explained: "Just in case." If we can't find the mechanism to open this secret door after we have passed, and this secret door closes after we have passed, won't we be able to come back? If there is one person left, we can help open it at any time. Wouldn't it be better if the people who stayed here would follow along with them when they found the mechanism on the other side?"
"Zhiwei has a point. After agreeing, Cui Zhiyi hurriedly said, "I am the eldest of us, and I will stay here." ”
"I'll stay, sir. Yan Jingnian said, "Master, I don't know anything to eat, and it's useless to follow the past, just send it to Master when you find something to eat." ”
Cui Zhiwei asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid that our brothers and sisters will run away, regardless of you?" Through the contact in the past few days, Yan Jingnian's performance was really beyond her expectations.
"You think I'm stupid, master! If I can't wait for a few of you, I won't go over by myself!"
"Okay, we're stupid, you're fine. Cui Zhiwei said this, but in his heart he accepted his feelings. Then without delay, he walked out of the cave with Cui Zhiyi and Cui Zhili.
Sure enough, she guessed that this secret door seemed to be equipped with a sensing device, and from the first step of Cui Zhiyi's head, the door began to creak and fall. Cui Zhiwei, who was second, hurriedly followed, and finally Cui Zhili.
When the three brothers and sisters looked back at the left-behind children Xiang Yan Jingnian, although he didn't show anything, he waved his hand at a few people, "Hurry up and find something to eat, I'm going to starve to death." But at that moment, Cui Zhiwei seemed to clearly feel that he was hesitating, afraid, lonely and helpless and other indescribably complex emotions.
She took a small mahogany sword from her purse and threw it at him before the secret door fell, "Then, it's okay to play with it." "That was what the Qi family gave her to ward off evil spirits in her early years, and now this environment is also appropriate for the feast year.
I don't know what he replied to, there was a loud "bang", and the secret door completely fell, completely isolating them from Yan Jingnian.
The three brothers and sisters did not leave in a hurry, but looked for a mechanism nearby that could come back and open the secret door. It's a pity that the medicinal fragrance here is too strong, even if Cui Zhili smells it repeatedly, he doesn't smell the difference.
Cui Zhiwei also sensed it repeatedly, hoping that his brain could give a hint. It's a pity that everything was in vain in the end, and several people were once again glad because of Cui Zhiwei's previous reminder.
"Since we can't find it, let's not delay. Cui Zhiwei gave a milky order.
If Cui Zhixing is here, of course she can't be seen. But right now, Cui Zhiyi has always been stubborn, and a fight may come in handy, but his brains are much worse.
Cui Zhili is smart enough to remove his abilities, and he is a real five-year-old naughty boy. Then only she has more than one life experience, and at this time she can only try to stay calm and give orders.
Cui Zhili has always obeyed her life, Cui Zhiyi's authentic sister control, usually reluctant to let her suffer a little grievance, but now she doesn't feel so strange, and obediently obeys the order.
At this time, Cui Zhiwei's ability predicted in advance was useless, and the only thing he could count on was Cui Zhili.
"Third brother, it's up to you whether you can find something to eat. She said.
"I, I can only smell the medicine. After all, Cui Zhili is only five years old, and his knowledge is not as good as Cui Zhiwei and Cui Zhiyi.
"Can't you tell if it's poisonous or not?"
"It should work. ”
"Then let's go find the fruits that look like they can be eaten, and if you judge that they are not poisonous, you should be able to eat them. ”
"Well, I'll try as much as I can. ”
The conversation between the two of them made Cui Zhiyi a little confused, "What are you two talking about?"
There are no outsiders at the moment, and after Cui Zhiwei and Cui Zhiyi look at each other, they decide to tell Cui Zhili's ability to Cui Zhiyi. And Cui Zhiwei's ability was too unbelievable, so he didn't talk to him at this time.
"No wonder Zhili smelled the medicinal fragrance behind the secret door before," Cui Zhiyi was not so stupid as to remind everything, "and before he could know that the blood lingzhi was useful to Zhiwei." "It's no wonder that the two little ones are chattering together.
"This is a secret," Cui Zhiwei continued to admonish, "Even grandmothers, parents, and eldest brothers don't know, you can't talk about it." ”
"I don't feel like it's anything! Why can't I tell my grandmother about them?" this made Cui Zhiyi feel a little puzzled.
Cui Zhiwei explained: "It's not that I can't tell my grandmother, my father, and my eldest brother, it's because the time is not right. After a pause, he said, "I can't tell others, because I'm afraid that after someone knows about the third brother's ability, they will use the third brother to do things for others, and the third brother will be in danger at that time." ”
"I see. Don't worry, I promise not to say anything about it. ”
His brother and sister have not yet reached the point where he swears, but no one in the Cui family has a black history of keeping this secret.
The rest is just looking for food. But here are mountains and fields full of trees, and the most fearful thing is to get lost or encounter wild beasts.
The three brothers and sisters are afraid of danger, and they are even more afraid of being separated, so they have been acting together. In order to find the starting point, Cui Zhiwei deliberately asked Cui Zhiyi to use a knife to carve marks on some trees.
Just walked and stopped, relying on Cui Zhili's unusual sense of smell, they really found a tree. Although the tree looks luxuriant, it bears sparse fruit.
"There are only nine in total, and they are not enough for us to eat. Cui Zhiyi said.
"Second brother," Cui Zhiwei looked up at the fruit on the tree, "No matter how many there are, find a way to get it down!"
