Chapter 118: Lost, in Distress
Some people saw that Ning Changrong had food in stock, and they knew that his family had already prepared. There was a clever man who was willing to spend money to buy food from his house, and he did not refuse.
Seeing that he was willing to sell, most of the people spent money and bought grain from him.
Wang Xiujuan is still trapped in the city, and he may need these people to help him at that time, plus they can't live in the mountains for the rest of their lives, even if they can be self-sufficient, they can't solve this salt and cloth.
And there is no guarantee that this place will never be discovered.
So it is necessary to co-opt these people.
But he can't give people food for nothing, and he couldn't be clearer about the truth of Dou Mien's promotion of rice hatred.
Fortunately, the people who came over were more familiar to him, including Mrs. Ding's family, Village Chief Ning's family, Chen Daniu's family, Mrs. Han's family, as well as Sun Carpenter's family, Orion's family, and Lai's sons and grandchildren.
This is all due to the fact that I have more contact with the Ning family.
In fact, there were many people who were following them,
But those people dragged their feet too slowly, and in the end the mountain was so big that many people were scattered.
Sitting next to the fire, Ning Qingxi's face flickered because of the firelight, "Dad, when are we going to save grandma?" ”
Ning Changrong let out a long sigh, "Wait a minute, I'll go out to see what's going on outside, and we'll go over there tomorrow to investigate." ”
"I'll go with you!"
Ning Changrong waved his hand, "Don't go, although you use a crossbow very well, but your body is still too small to run fast, if something really happens, you won't be able to run." ”
Ning Qingxi could only look at her slender limbs resentfully when she heard this, she hated herself for wearing such a small body for the first time.
When I found out that my body was getting smaller before, I just complained a little, but it was a big deal to grow again. This time is different, it was her beloved grandmother since she was a child, Ning Qingxi couldn't imagine what she would do if something happened to her grandmother?
But she didn't even have the qualifications to save the other party.
Ning Changrong didn't let Ning Qingxi go on an adventure with him, but in the middle of the night, he also took her out of the mountainside and looked in the direction of Taixi County under the mountain.
The straight-line distance is almost dozens of miles, and what can they see? It's just some psychological comfort.
After Wang Xiujuan and the two ran out of the cost, they ran straight to the mountain, afraid of encountering some thieves on the road, the two kept shuttling in the mountains and did not dare to walk on the road.
As a result, Wang Xiujuan and Lai Pozi, who had been out less often, got lost......
"I said, do you know the way? Didn't we just come here? Wang Xiujuan held on to a tree and gasped.
Unexpectedly, the old man at her age not only experienced this kind of thing, but also witnessed the ancient war.
At this time, I got lost in the mountains.
Lai Pozi sneered: "Shouldn't it? I remember going in this direction, how did I walk back again? ”
Wang Xiujuan didn't know the way, and when she arrived in the mountains, Lai Pozi took the initiative to lead the way.
Lai Pozi thought that she had always relied on Wang Xiujuan to live in the city, and she finally came out and wanted to give full play to her skills.
Anyway, aren't all the roads in the mountains the same? Can you get lost as long as you go in one direction?
It turns out that they do get lost.
I don't even know how to get back to the roadside.
Wang Xiujuan can see it, Lai Pozi doesn't know the road at all, it's a big night, and she is still in the mountains, she has no sense of security at all!
I didn't dare to stay and rest, I looked up at the direction of the moon, and Wang Xiujuan decided to rely on myself.
Although she doesn't know the way, she can rely on the moon to tell the general direction, which is better than Lai Pozi!
Wang Xiujuan took a break and walked in the direction she recognized.
"Where are you going? Do you know Lucissy her? ”
"Let's go first. If you don't want to leave, you can stay. ”
Lai, who knew that she had messed up the matter, didn't dare to ask again, and followed behind Wang Xiujuan step by step.
"Grandma Sissy, wait for me!"
Through the direction identification of the moon, Wang Xiujuan and the two of them really did not get lost again.
It's just that you should always be vigilant about whether there will be any snakes, insects, rats, ants and other things suddenly appear in this mountain. And the wolf roar and the tiger roar made the two of them tremble.
"Bang."
Lai Pozi's eyes widened, she looked ahead in horror, and held Wang Xiujuan's arm with both hands, "Xixi, her milk, what's going on in front?" Did you hear that? ”
Wang Xiujuan reluctantly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, holding the hand in both hands, "Who, who's in front?" Don't play tricks on me! Come out! ”
"Whoosh."
Wang Xiujuan heard the voice, quickly pulled the trigger and shot empty.
I saw a white rabbit running away from under their feet.
If it weren't for the white fur of its fur, it would not be easy to find in the woods at night.
found out that it was a false alarm, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at a glance.
Although Lai Pozi can't do anything, for Wang Xiujuan, the other party is also a kind of dependence on her.
It can be regarded as spiritual dependence, two people walking in the mountains and forests in the middle of the night is better than walking alone.
When you have someone with you, you can talk.
"It's okay, don't be shocked, my heart is going to scare you off."
Lai Pozi looked aggrieved, "Aren't I afraid?" ”
The two old ladies stopped and stopped all the way, suspicious.
I don't know if Wang Xiujuan is really lucky, they really didn't encounter any danger along the way.
Even the tiger roar close to their ears was used to hearing it.
was walking, Wang Xiujuan's foot was suddenly scratched.
"Oops."
"What's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiujuan squatted down and found that it was okay, but after squatting, she found the rut marks left by the carriage on the road!
Wang Xiujuan instantly became happy, "I've found the right way!" We've finally found our way! ”
Looking at the ruts on this road, and seeing some similar stones and trees on these two sides, Wang Xiujuan finally dared to be sure.
Lai Pozi was also happy when she heard it, "Great! In the middle of the night, I can be regarded as finding my way! ”
They had been walking around the mountains and forests for more than an hour, and it was almost dawn.
The two of them, who were originally sleepy and hungry, suddenly had an extra strength in their bodies, and they went up the rut and headed towards the belly of the mountain.
When she was in the mountains, Wang Xiujuan had already told Lai Pozi that her family might be hiding with her sons and granddaughters in the mountainside.
Lai Pozi came with her, and said that if she wasn't there, Wang Xiujuan would also be willing to accompany her to Xiayuan Village to have a look.
Anyway, they will go back to Xia Yuan Village to see the situation at that time. I won't stay in the mountains and be blind all the time.
After about two quarters of an hour, the rut marks in front disappeared.
Fortunately, Wang Xiujuan has been here many times, but she still knows the way.
"It's almost there, keep going."
The two old ladies supported each other, and Wang Xiujuan said this to Lai Pozi, and also to herself.
Suddenly, a faint voice came from the front, "Is that you?" Aunt Ning? ”
The female voice that suddenly sounded in the woods in the middle of the night was really a bit infiltrating
Lai Pozi's hand holding Wang Xiujuan's arm suddenly became stronger, and she hurriedly looked around, "Did you hear that?" Looks like someone called you? ”
Wang Xiujuan clenched the crossbow in her hand and said tentatively: "Who is it?" ”
