At eight o'clock the next morning, Leng Muxuan woke up Ran Zijin, who was asleep in his arms, and the two ate the bird's eggs he found on the tree again, and then planned to go down the mountain along the stream.

Leng Muxuan wanted to carry Ran Zijin on her back, but she didn't agree to anything, "I can go by myself, I don't need you to carry it." ”

"Your feet are like that, how do you walk?" Leng Muxuan felt sorry for Ran Zijin's feet, and the blood bubbles and blisters were mixed together, and he looked as if a small whip had whipped his heart.

"Mu Xuan, I know that you have to take care of me, but now that I can go, I will go by myself, and when I can't walk, you will carry me again, so that you can leave enough strength to take care of me better." Ran Zijin knew that Leng Muxuan had hugged him all night last night in order to protect her and let her sleep peacefully, without closing his eyes.

Although his body is very good, he is a big living person after all, and he will be tired, tired, and his body will feel uncomfortable. Even though he didn't say it, she knew it very well and felt very sorry for him.

"It's okay, Zijin, I can hold on." Leng Muxuan squatted in front of Ran Zijin, took her hand and told her to climb onto his back.

"No, I'm going to go by myself!" Ran Zijin is also very persistent and will never compromise, "If you carry me behind your back, I won't leave." ”

After she finished speaking, she sat on the branch of the tree she had sat on before, twisting her head and really not leaving.

"Oh well. Zijin, I can't walk, you must tell me. Leng Muxuan looked at the endless mountain forest, and was a little worried about whether he could get out today.

He knew that Luo Yining was looking for them, but they hadn't found them for so long last night, so it was not easy to be found, so he had to be prepared and maintain his strength, just in case he had to spend the night in the woods tonight.

"Well, let's go." Seeing that Leng Muxuan had compromised, Ran Zijin stood up with a happy smile and walked forward with his hand.

Leng Muxuan doted on her little hand, she was still wearing his coat, so she could cover her body and not be scratched by the branches, but most of her legs were still exposed, and he was still a little distressed, but there was nothing for her to wear.

Walking down the creek is not very easy to walk, and they often encounter high ridges or rocky cliffs, and they have to detour.

However, after having Leng Muxuan, Ran Zijin found that such a dense forest was not so difficult to walk, and he was not afraid in his heart.

They also encountered a lot of animals on the way, and Ran Zijin was also scared several times, but they were all well protected by Leng Muxuan, and they didn't hurt the animals once.

When it was close to noon, Leng Muxuan and Ran Zijin continued to choose a relatively open place to rest.

"What do we eat? Bird eggs? Leng Muxuan asked this Ran Zijin, while rubbing Xiao Yuehui, who was already a little swollen.

In fact, there are many things that can be eaten here, such as catching a hare, or a pheasant, or even a snake, but he can't leave Ran Zijin alone to sit here and wait for him, he goes to the forest to catch these things.

He didn't worry about her alone, there were dangers everywhere in this forest, and there was a fire at night to drive away some animals, but there was no fire during the day, not to mention, most of the animals came out to move, and it was more dangerous than at night.

"Yes. This one is easier to come by. Ran Zijin didn't have many requirements, she knew that it was not easy for Leng Muxuan to get bird eggs.

Leng Muxuan nodded, and smashed a few bird's nests on a few big trees near Ran Zijin, and more than a dozen bird eggs were in hand.

Just as he was about to make a fire and boil eggs, he suddenly heard a crackling sound in the forest, and he vigilantly protected Ran Zijin behind him and looked at the place where the sound came from.

"Zijin, if something comes over in a while, you can climb up the tree and climb up hard!"

"And what do you do?" Ran Zijin was also frightened by the huge sound, and tightly tugged at the hem of Leng Muxuan's clothes, looking in that direction with the same vigilance.

"I also climb trees!" Leng Muxuan glanced at a tree that was easier to climb up while he spoke, and put Ran Zijin on the branch with his arms, "Hold on to the branches, and climb up depending on the situation!" ”

"Hmm." Ran Zijin climbed the branch and hugged the trunk tightly, although he was very scared and worried about Leng Muxuan, but in order not to distract him, he still did what he said.

Leng Muxuan took out two sabers from his military boots, one in each hand, and was ready to attack at any time.

The crackling sound was getting louder and closer, but the woods were so dense that they couldn't see what it was, and they could only hear it as a large animal from the sound of walking.

Leng Muxuan's heart darkened, guessing that it was something like a brown bear, moving slowly and because of his weight, he would step on the branches and leaves with such a loud noise.

When the voice got closer, Leng Muxuan saw a black shadow vaguely, sure enough, it was a black bear, he raised his saber and aimed at it and was about to fly out of the black bear to stab the black bear, but he was stopped by Ran Zijin's eager voice.

"Mu Xuan! No! That's people, it's people! Not something else! It's people! Ran Zijin climbed up the tree again just now, standing taller than Leng Muxuan, so he could see far, and at a glance he found that it was a person in black clothes curled up on the ground looking for something.

"Are you sure?" Leng Muxuan looked up at Ran Zijin, and the posture of the attack in his hand remained unchanged.

"It's really human! Mu Xuan, we met someone in Lu, and it is estimated that we will be able to go out of Lu to this mountain forest soon, right?! Ran Zijin was so excited that he was about to cry, and after a night and a half of a day in the mountains, they finally saw people!

"Hey! Feed! Do you hear the people over there? She held the trunk in one hand and waved it at the figure with the other.

But the man didn't hear Ran Zijin's shout, and he still lowered his head and bent over, not knowing what he was looking for on the ground.

"Zijin, be careful, don't fall!" Leng Muxuan nervously threw the saber and stood under the tree looking at Ran Zijin on the tree, always ready for her to catch her if she fell.

"I'm fine." Xu is meeting people and having hope, Ran Zijin was overexcited, and the potential in her body was stimulated, she had never climbed a tree, she actually slipped down from the tree with neat movements, and threw herself into Leng Muxuan's arms, "Mu Xuan, we met Lu and saw people!" ”

Leng Muxuan was surprised that her movements down the tree were so skillful and neat, and she took her hand worriedly and looked at it, until she was sure that she was not injured, and then smiled reassuringly.

"Well, we've met someone." He ruffled her messy hair, cut off a plant vine from one side, and gave her a nice ponytail.

Her hair had long been scraped by a branch, a leather band was also broken, her long hair was scattered like that, and there were leaves and slag on her hair, Leng Muxuan felt very uncomfortable, his Zijin actually suffered like this for him.

When he tied her hair, Ran Zijin took his arm and said, "Mu Xuan, let's go over and have a look, and ask that person, how can I get out of the mountains and forests?" ”

"Hmm. You wait here for me, I'll just ask. Leng Muxuan cut down the branch again and put it on the root of a big tree, and asked Ran Zijin to sit on it, and then he walked towards the person.

When he got closer, he realized that it was an old woman, probably in her eighties, but her body was very strong, otherwise she would not be alone in this mountain forest picking something a little like fungus.

"Old man!" Leng Muxuan bent down and shouted at the old woman under a large frame of wild grape vines.

The old man still didn't hear it, and still bent down and kept picking up what he wanted from the ground.

"Old man!" Leng Muxuan was afraid of scaring people, so he didn't dare to make too much noise, so he could only pull a vine stretched out of the vine slightly.

"Yo!" The old woman was startled by the sound of the pulling, turned around and held the sickle, and saw that it was a person who covered her heart and calmed down, "Why is there such a person in this big forest?" ”

She carefully observed Leng Muxuan, such a foreign-style person was definitely not a blind date near the mountain, so she thought that she was a person who came into the mountains to hunt and get lost, so she asked him: "Are you here to hunt in this mountain?" Lost, right? If you want to go out, just wait for me to go with you. ”

"There's no road here?" Leng Muxuan looked like he was cold to anyone, even if he was begging for someone at the moment, he just eased his tone and did not change his imposing appearance.

"Nope. Through the woods. The old woman was also intimidated by his momentum, and looked at him in a daze, not daring to move again.

"When are you going back? How far down the hill is here? Leng Muxuan only paid attention to his own concerns, and he was not curious about how an old woman could appear in this mountain.

"I'm going to fill this basket before I go back, but it's going to be full, it's going to be full. It's about three hours to walk out of the mountain. The old woman had to walk for so long when she came into the mountain, and she didn't consider that she was walking slowly, so she answered Leng Muxuan directly.

"Mu Xuan! How's it going? Ran Zijin could see the two people over there, but he couldn't hear what they said, so he shouted Leng Muxuan with some worry to ask about the situation.

"Huh? And another person? Why does this sound so familiar? The old woman heard Ran Zijin's voice at this time, and pulled the plaid cloth on her head and said suspiciously. Are you a woman? ”

Leng Muxuan nodded, and shook his head again, although Ran Zijin already belonged to him completely, but she didn't marry him after all, and she wasn't his woman in the real sense.

In fact, his understanding is too narrow, and the people in this mountain say whose woman is actually your girlfriend, your daughter-in-law, and your wife, but he doesn't know it.

"Girl, we can get out, don't worry." The old woman was kind and generous, and although she didn't see Ran Zijin, she still shouted at her.

"Okay, thank you!" As soon as Ran Zijin heard that he could get out of the mountain, he stood up excitedly and walked towards Leng Muxuan and them.

When she got closer, she couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw the old woman clearly, "Grandma, why are you here?" This mountain ......"

The mountain is so big, and an old woman in her eighties picks game here alone, Ran Zijin simply admires her too much.

"Yo! It's you, girl! The old woman looked at Ran Zijin with a smile, isn't this just kind enough to buy her shepherd's cabbage and bracken, and give her fifty yuan for the girl she didn't ask her to find!

"Grandma, what are you picking?" Ran Zijin asked curiously as he looked at the black thing in her back basket.

"I don't know what the people in your city call this, but our people here are screaming nonsense, and I call them wild fungus. It is a damp place in the mountains, or after rain, the ground grows on its own. The old woman was very happy to see Ran Zijin, and walked out from under the wild grape vines with a basket on her back. Girl, you're lost and hungry, aren't you? Let's go to the spacious place over there, I have steamed buns here, you can eat some first. ”

"Who is she?" Leng Muxuan pulled Ran Zijin and followed behind the old woman, just now he was very puzzled about how she could know this mountain person.

"Mu Xuan, don't worry, she met at my market." Ran Zijin could see the vigilance of Leng Muxuan's eyes against the old woman, so he explained it to him well.

Leng Muxuan was relieved when he heard this, but he still didn't hide that cold momentum from the old man.

Ran Zijin didn't say anything about him, knowing that he was used to it, and he was forced by the environment in which he lived since he was a child.

"Girl, come, eat some steamed buns." The old grandmother took out a cloth bag from the bottom of the back basket, took out two cracked steamed buns from it and handed them to Ran Zijin, and gave Leng Muxuan another one.

Ran Zijin took it and took a bite, but saw Leng Muxuan holding the steamed bun and looking at him for a long time, so he smiled and held his wrist, "Mu Xuan, eat!" It's okay! Only when you are full will you have the strength to get out! ”

After speaking, she took another bite of the dried steamed bun with slag, and looked at Leng Muxuan with a smile, meaning to tell him: Look, it's not so hard to swallow, although it's not good-looking, it tastes good!

Leng Muxuan saw that she was eating so deliciously, frowned, looked down at the steamed bun in her hand that looked black and a little yellow, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly took a small bite.

After chewing it, there was a little sourness, a little musty, and some indescribable mixed taste, which made him almost vomit, but when he saw that Ran Zijin had been looking at him, he forcibly swallowed it.

"Steamed bread is a coarse grain, which is more nutritious than bird eggs, and it is only when you eat it that you are strong." Ran Zijin smiled and continued to nibble on the dry steamed buns, eating very happily.

What is this kind of cracked steamed bun, she was in an orphanage when she was a child, the living conditions were not good, and she often couldn't eat, and sometimes Gu's mother would go to the restaurant to ask those people to eat the rest of the meal, and then cook it in the pot, wash it again, and cook it again, and let the children eat.

After about a year or two, the orphanage was funded, and the children's food problem was finally solved, so they didn't eat the food they were asked to eat.

Ran Zijin didn't tell Leng Muxuan this, not because he was embarrassed, but because he didn't want him to feel sorry for her.
