Chapter 28: Looking for Trouble
Two miles away, a group of people walked for nearly half an hour.
Luo Lingzhi took Dabao and Nannan to choose a small cave near the edge to rest, next to which happened to be the old Orion family who had saved Dabao and Nannan. Smiled and said hello, and Luo Lingzhi entered the cave.
The people settled down, and the fire-builders did their jobs.
Luo Lingzhi took the child to hide in the corner of a dim cave. Hundreds of people, some of whom are hungry and have no food, more is better than less, the mother and son quietly hold the cloth bag and gnaw on the eggs and potatoes baked in the space.
The second uncle went to look for herbs and didn't come back, Bai Yunduo woke up, but he was very weak, Bai Lingqing opened the two eggs and seven or eight potatoes in the cloth bag, knowing that even his family had them, and cast a grateful look in the direction of Luo Lingzhi.
However, Luo Lingzhi didn't see it at all.
I was thinking about how to save the amount of money in the storage space where the wheat was about to ripen.
At this time, Grandpa Orion came over with a sun-dried rabbit leg, "Zhi girl, the children must be hungry, this is a tooth sacrifice for them, find a way to survive these few days, and it will be easy to find food when the weather is clear." ”
The old hunter looked at Luo Dabao and Luo Nannan with pity, these two little guys are very popular.
This is the first time to feel the pure kindness of others, Luo Lingzhi felt grateful in his heart, and did not refuse, "Okay, I'll exchange things with Grandpa Hunt." ”
"You are a little girl with two children, how can you have anything to change? I just like to feel sorry for these two kids, so take it. After the old hunter finished speaking, he gave the sun-dried rabbit legs to Luo Dabao, and touched the top of the heads of the two little ones at one time, his eyes were full of pity.
The two little ones were thrown into a dry well by the original owner when they were young, and it was Grandpa Hunt who rescued them.
In the front and back yards of the two houses, the two little ones were hungry, and they ate and drank from Grandpa Hunt's house.
Luo Lingzhi was also not polite, and after putting away the rabbit meat, he thought about how he could return something to Grandpa Hunter's family.
After all, there was still a forest on a sunny day before, and there was still an excuse to take out the potatoes.
She didn't stop for the past two days, and she suddenly took it out, which was plain and suspicious.
The heart of defense is indispensable.
So she thought about it for a while, and asked her grandfather's family to go out with her grandfather and her own age to go out to find some wild vegetables to store food.
Grandpa Hunt pushed the shy and embarrassed second son, "Go, they are orphans and widows, they can help." ”
Luo Lingzhi comes from the last days, and he has a sense of great defense between men and women, and he has a lot of nerves in this regard, so he only feels that the second child is too introverted, so he borrowed a bamboo basket from Grandpa Hunting and pushed the second child out of the hunt.
I don't know when the rainy day will be a head.
She wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to take out some food from the space, and she could be regarded as thanking the old Orion family for taking care of their mother and son all the time.
The cave where they rested, next to a forest.
Luo Lingzhi walked in, pretended to trip, "oops", and was about to fake fall to the ground, but was helped by the second hunter next to him.
"Miss Luo, be careful."
"Ah, there are so many potatoes here!"
Luo Lingzhi reminded the second brother of the hunt with her extremely clumsy acting skills, and while squatting down, she grabbed a potato that had been thrown from the space just now while she was wrestling, "I have a full meal to eat tonight, let's pick it up quickly, second brother hunting." ’
"In these years, there have been wars and famines, and the bark of the trees has been eaten by others, so how can there be so many potatoes lying on the ground with white sugar?"
"Maybe the rain washed them out of the dirt."
"Then why don't you even see the stems and leaves?"
"The rain is so heavy that the stems and leaves are washed away?"
Luo Lingzhi couldn't think of a better excuse, "Anyway, there is food, so much to do, what you pick up is earned, is it possible that you are waiting to be found and snatched away by others?" “
Just like the second hunter said, in this year of famine, any food is precious, ignoring the doubts in his heart at the moment, squatting down in the rain and picking up things with Luo Lingzhi.
When Luo Lingzhi came out, he ordered the leaves to make a coat, and he didn't get much drenched when he returned to the cave.
The second hunter is a fool, and when he returned to the cave, he told Grandpa Hunt about the potatoes found by Luo Lingzhi.
Grandpa Hunter didn't suspect anything, but he didn't want to accept a basket of precious potatoes.
"With such a conspicuous basket of food, we are afraid that we will become a live target for others to compete for. Hunting grandpa might as well take these things as the food expenses of our mother and son, and temporarily take in our mother and son for a meal before eating. ”
"This is the food you found, and you mother and son should eat as much as you want. Then I will keep it for your mother and son, and leave it for you to eat. ”
She has so much space that she can't eat at all.
Grandpa Hunt's family are all honest people, otherwise they would not have given the two little ones who were abused by the original owner without asking for anything in return.
The cave was damp, and it was still a little cold in the rainy season, Luo Lingzhi's eyes fell on the bag where Grandpa Hunt had stored animal skins, "If Grandpa Hunter insists, why don't you exchange animal skins for potatoes?" We can't eat such a basket of potatoes, and it's still cumbersome to carry, but the further north we go, the cooler the weather becomes, and we can protect ourselves at night with animal skins. ”
"These animal skins can be exchanged for some money on ordinary days, and there is no fixed place to live in this famine year, and it is useless to carry them, you can pick as many Ganoderma lucidum girls as you want!"
After a while, the old hunter brought Luo Lingzhi several clean animal skins, mostly rabbit skins, and a piece of variegated fox skin, all of which were given to Luo Lingzhi.
Not long after Luo Lingzhi and Hunter Er went out, they came back with a large basket of potatoes.
The hearts of the people who had been hungry in the cave for several days were ready to move.
Some people inevitably had crooked thoughts, but when they saw that Luo Lingzhi directly used potatoes to find the old hunter's family to exchange for animal skins, they stopped thinking.
The picture of Luo Lingzhi's Liwei is still vivid in my mind, and the old Orion family also has three strong laborers who hunt all year round, even if they escape from the famine all the way, their family still eats better than others with their hunting skills, and their physique is not too thin.
Bai Panpan's eyes swirled around the basket of potatoes and Luo Lingzhi from time to time, his eyes were hot, his stomach was even more croaking, thinking about something in his heart, and turned to find his own brother Bai Lingfei, who was obedient to him.
"Panpan, don't run around, it's not safe outside, and besides, Qiao Erlang is nothing good, and when my brother and I get ahead in the future, I will definitely find you a good husband." Bai Lingfei thought that Bai Panpan was going to pull himself to find Qiao Erlang, after all, this was not the first time Bai Panpan had done it.
But not right now.
Bai Lingfei looked at his sister's almost disfigured face, and complained very much about Luo Lingzhi in his heart.
Na Luo Lingzhi, a cheap girl with bad morals, was too vicious to treat his sister like this.
Wait, he must make that woman look good.
"Second brother, I'm not looking for Qiao Erlang." Bai Panpan stomped her feet, a burst of annoyance flashed on her face, it was not that she didn't want to find Qiao Erlang in the past two days, but she was avoided by him every time.
Bai Panpan touched his uneven face, feeling resentful in his heart.
Even if there is the ointment given by the second uncle, the scar will still be a little scary for a while and a half, and it is all to blame for Luo Lingzhi's cheap woman!
I don't know what kind of evil luck she has taken recently, first she has obtained a powerful secret technique to practice a skill, and now the big guys are hungry, why is she always lucky to find food.
"Second brother, do you know that Luo Lingzhi dragged two baskets of potatoes back?" Bai Panpan's eyes were full of calculations.
Bai Lingfei scratched his head, a little unsure of what Bai Panpan meant, "Panpan, our family is indeed gone, when the rain stops, my eldest brother and I will go to find it, we will definitely not starve you." ”
As for Luo Lingzhi's two baskets of potatoes, Bai Lingfei didn't want to ask for some, but he couldn't beat them.
Bai Panpan rolled his eyes, "Second brother, where are you looking for it?" I don't think it'...... like this."
Bai Panpan whispered her calculations in Bai Lingfei's ear.
Bai Lingfei's eyes lit up, and he patted Bai Panpan's shoulder excitedly, "Panpan is smart!" ”
"You tap!" Bai Panpan grinned in pain, and immediately kicked Bai Lingfei.
Bai Lingfei was not angry, and giggled happily.
"I will keep an eye on Luo Lingzhi and wait for us to find a place, hehe, my brother will avenge you, and also shave the face of that bad girl, and let her be a slave for you and serve you." Bai Lingfei looked triumphant, as if he already had a large pile of potatoes, and the people around him were all flattering and flattering him, and his heart was happy.
