Volume 1 Chapter 12 Into the Mountain

Li looked at the books in Xu Yunnan and Xu Yunmeng's hands, and was very moved in his heart, took Xu Yunjin's hand and said:

"Good boy, you are so good to your eldest brother and sister, and the eldest aunt doesn't know how to thank you."

"Auntie, we are all a family, in the future, the eldest brother will make ceramics, you can give me a good vase, and my sister will also give me good clothes, I am the most blessed sister in the world."

Everyone looked at Xu Yunjin, who was snuggling up to the Li family, and they were all amused, and they didn't know who this girl was with.

"Grandma, Auntie, aunt, you will send these small bags of polished rice to a few familiar families tomorrow, especially grandpa and grandpa Li's grandparents, grandma Chunhua, grandma, village chief and grandfather, I see that they are a lot haggard in the past few days, this bit of rice let them be boiled into rice porridge for the old man to replenish his body."

Xu Yunjin took out a few small bags of rice from the farm and said to the Zhang family.

"Grandpa, tomorrow my father and I will say to go to the front to find water, and then find a suitable place for me to put some water out, and then everyone will have water to drink."

Xu Yunjin put forward his own idea, and Old Man Xu thought for a while before nodding and saying:

"Let your uncle go with you tomorrow, your father will stay and catch the car, he is more familiar with the mountains and forests than your father, it is safer for him to go with you."

Old Man Xu was a little disgusted with his second son, who was powerless, so he directly changed the candidate.

Xu Wen felt a little aggrieved for the first time, and his father didn't seem to love him very much.

Everyone in the Xu family was talking and laughing in the tent, eating the candy and snacks that Xu Yunjin bought, Xu Yunzhao was so happy that he couldn't find the north, and he couldn't stop eating.

was intimidated by Xu Yunjin, who ate too much sugar and bad teeth, and obediently gave the sugar in his arms to the Lin family for safekeeping.

With the backing, I felt that the next journey to escape from the famine was not very difficult, and it was not until midnight that they went back to their tents to sleep.

Xu Yunzhao was still next to Xu Yunjin, pestering her to tell him about the old immortals.

The next morning, Xu Wu took Xu Yunjin to tell the village chief about the two of them going to find water, and Xu Wu took the water bladder dagger that Xu Yunjin bought with a bow and arrow on his back.

Xu Yunjin carried a small basket on his back, and the two of them traveled lightly and walked forward.

While walking, Xu Yunjin and the two looked to see if there was any suitable place to release water, and after walking for a long time, there was no suitable one, Xu Yunjin thought about it and said to Xu Wu:

"Uncle, why don't we go into the mountains, go into the mountains a little bit, there is no suitable place to put water outside, go to the mountains to see if there are any pools or something."

Xu Wu was a little hesitant, he took the child into the mountain alone, although he didn't have to go too far, but after two years of drought, many animals ran down the mountain without food, and he could retreat alone, and he didn't dare to take risks with the child.

"Otherwise, we'll look at the foot of the mountain, it's too dangerous to go up the mountain, if we run into a wild beast......"

"Uncle, you forget that I have a lot of strength, and I will also do some kung fu, when I buy two good knives on the farm, we will go to the mountains to have a look, and then I will buy a dozen pheasants on the farm, and when I go back, I can tell them that we went into the mountains to fight, and the stew pot pheasant soup will make up for the villagers."

Xu Yunjin wants to eat meat, he hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and he wants to vomit every day when he boils water to soak flatbread.

Now that I own my own farm, I can't eat big fish and meat on the way to escape the famine, but it's okay to eat some small meat occasionally.

"Ouch, it hurts."

Xu Yunjin was still imagining that he was drinking chicken soup and eating chicken, but he was slapped on the head by Xu Wu's big hand.

"You girl, you think beautifully, there are more than a dozen pheasants, now in this year, it is good to meet two or three pheasants, you think the people in the village are so easy to coax, you must remember in the future, you can't be careless."

Xu Wu said to Xu Yunjin with a serious face, Xu Yunjin immediately realized her mistake, she thought too simply, she was from another world, she was different from others many times.

She understands the truth that Pifu is innocent and guilty, so she has been hiding it for the past few years, just for fear that if someone with a heart discovers her strangeness.

At that time, she didn't know how to die even if she was afraid of dying, and with Xiaoyi, her vigilance became lower, which is not good.

"Uncle, I know it's wrong, I will definitely think it through before doing something next time, and no one will find out that I am different."

Xu Yunjin also hurriedly assured Xu Wu, Xu Wu saw that Xu Yunjin had figured it out, and he also put his mind at ease and gently rubbed Xu Yunjin's head.

Xiao Yi silently paid attention to everything in the outside world, and if Xu Wu didn't remind Xu Yunjin just now, he would also remind the host.

Although he is a system with little experience, he has also heard from his predecessors that there have been hosts in the past who have been obliterated by people who have noticed strangeness.

Xu Wu thought about it and agreed to Xu Yunjin's request, as long as he didn't run into tigers, bears, and herds of wild boars, there should be no danger.

"Then let's go, uncle, go inside a little, avoid the refugees, and I'll buy a knife again."

Xu Yunjin looked at the surrounding refugees and whispered to Xu Wu, and then the two walked to the mountain, and when they left the sight of the displaced people, Xu Yunjin hurriedly called Xiaoyi.

"Little one and little one, I want to buy two knives, and buy two pheasants to put in the warehouse, are the pheasants alive when they are bought, or are they plucked."

"The host can note that the price will be cheaper if you don't pluck the hair."

Xu Yunjin thought about it and chose not to pluck the feathers, and when they found a place to release the water, they would kill the chickens next to them, lest everyone only see the chickens and not the chicken feathers, which would be difficult to explain.

Looking at the two knives that Xu Yunjin took out, Xu Wu's eyes lit up, good knives, the blade is very thin, well-made, and it is very sharp at a glance, it is not something that can be made by the iron-making process of this era.

"Jin girl, this kind of knife must not be taken out in the future, I have seen many knives, but none of them can be so sharp, if this is seen by others, it will definitely cause an uproar, and when the time comes, your personal safety will be threatened."

Xu Yunjin heard the uncle's words and nodded, it's good, her family has always put her safety first.

"Well, I know uncle, I'll put it away when I'm out later, and next time I'll buy two not so good knives and hide them in our family's grain pile, so that when we take out the knives in case of danger in the future, we can explain that they were prepared before."

After listening to Xu Yunjin's arrangement, Xu Wu nodded, Ah Jin is a measured child, as long as someone mentions it a little, he can draw inferences from one another, and he is really smart.

The uncle and nephew took their knives and walked into the mountains, but they did not encounter any animals along the way, and after walking for about two quarters of an hour, they saw a river, which had long since dried up.

"Uncle, let's find out if there is any kind of small pond here, preferably with more stones underneath, otherwise the land will dry up for too long, and it will be submerged in the soil not long after I let the water go."

The two looked separately, and Xu Yunjin, who was walking up the river, found a big pond not long after, and there was still a little water in it, she called Xu Wu excitedly:

"Uncle, come and have a big puddle here, and there's still some water in it."

Xu Wu hurriedly walked to Xu Yunjin's side and saw that there was indeed a big pond.

Xu Yunjin was releasing water into it, and it took nearly ten minutes to fill the pond.

Xu Yunjin had no choice but a small stream of water flowing out of his fingers, and then he took out two tied pheasants from the farm and bought some wild eggs.

"Uncle, I'll wait for you here, you go and inform the people in the village to come here to fill water."

"But it's too dangerous for you to be here alone, so let's go back together."

"Uncle, don't worry, I'll climb up the tree later, you go and come back quickly, I'm here watching the pond."

Xu Wu thought about it, he ran fast, and it took only two tea times to call someone down the mountain, and sent Xu Yunjin to a big tree, carrying pheasants and wild eggs, and ran down the mountain.

The majority of the army knew that the uncle and nephew of the Xu family had gone to find water, so they had been controlling the pace of advancement, and Xu Wu took the villagers into the mountains after a while.

"Sister, you hold the tree and go down carefully, and my brother will pick you up below."

Everyone was still behind, and Xu Yunqing and Xu Yunnan, who knew the general direction, heard that their sister was still on the tree, so they ran to the front to pick up their sister.
