The night was spent in a state of apprehension and anxiety.

Fortunately, the night was calm, and there were no beasts rushing out to attack people.

By dawn the next day, the officers and men did not say anything to everyone, but only told everyone to continue on their way.

However, after another whole day of walking, I still didn't get out of the valley.

The panic and uneasiness in the ranks intensified.

"What the hell is going on? We won't be able to walk out of this valley for the rest of our lives, will we? ”

"I heard that the officers and soldiers are asking if there are any people who understand formations, we may be trapped by some formation!"

"Formation? Who in this barren mountain and wilderness set up a formation to trap us? ”

"Who knows? Wait, maybe someone who understands the formation can crack the formation quickly, and we can get out. ”

However, things did not go as expected. Three days later, everyone still couldn't get out of the valley.

The faces of the officers and men became more and more solemn day by day.

The exiles became numb day by day.

On this day, after Xia Jing ordered everyone to stop and camp, Wu Tongcai and several other deputy commanders came over to report to Xia Jing.

"Boss, we don't have much food or water."

"How many more?" Xia Jing twisted a face tightly.

Wu Tongcai and the others glanced at each other and said, "The food is only enough for each person to divide half a vegetable dumpling at most, and there are only three buckets of water." ”

There is only so little water and food left, which is equivalent to the point of exhaustion.

Xia Jing, as the president, was so worried that his brows were knotted.

I didn't expect to just snatch things back from the mountain bandits, and it didn't take long for this kind of thing to happen again!

He was silent for a while, and glanced at the deputy commanders who were waiting for him to speak. Xia Jing finally made a decision.

He divided several of the deputy commanders into groups.

A group of people took the rest of the food into vegetable cakes and distributed them.

One group led people to find a water source.

One group led people to look for food to see if they could find anything to eat in the mountains, or what kind of prey they could hunt.

The rest of the group went to explore the surroundings and see if they could find anything.

After dividing into groups, several people dispersed.

In the exile procession, everyone sat on the ground.

Everyone was hungry, but they didn't dare to look around for food.

The main reason is that the trees in this valley are too dense and so evil, they are afraid that if they go into the forest, people will not be able to get out.

Zhu Ru also sat on the ground at this time, but she was not worried about eating.

Although the food on the surface is almost finished, there is a convenience store in her space.

The snacks, biscuits, drinks, and mineral water inside are enough to last for a while.

However, the things in the space are not easy to take out and show people, and she will not take them out easily unless she has to.

Therefore, when Wu Tongcai came over with a few subordinates to ask Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan if they would like to go to the mountains with them to find food, Zhu Ruru agreed without saying a word.

Originally, she thought about whether to go into the forest and take a walk to see if she could find something to eat.

Together with the officers and soldiers, someone will take care of her, and of course she will not refuse.

"If so, you should be safe when you go to the woods."

When Tang Qinglan heard that Zhu Ruru was going to go to the forest with the officers and soldiers to find food, she didn't stop her, but she told her with uneasy eyes.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll be fine. If I come back late, you and Rarity go to bed first. ”

Zhu Ruru took out the last bit of jerky in the bamboo back basket and the two water bags and handed them to Tang Qinglan.

Tang Qinglan didn't answer.

"Ruru, this is the last jerky, right? You give it to me, what do you eat? It's better for you to keep it for yourself, it takes physical strength to go to the forest to find food. Later, the officers and soldiers will give out food, and Rarity and I won't be hungry. ”

Zhu Ruru directly stuffed things into Tang Qinglan's hands.

"I've got a little left, Rarity is growing up, and those cakes aren't nutritious and unpalatable. Eat these jerky. I'll go to the mountains later, and maybe I'll find something to eat soon. ”

After speaking, Zhu Ruru strode away.

Tang Qinglan could only chase after Zhu Ruru's back and tell her again to pay attention to safety.

Zhu Ruru and his party entered the forest.

Because the trees were too dense, they didn't go very fast, and slowly explored forward.

They found some traces of animals walking, but strangely, after searching for nearly half an hour, they did not see any animals.

Occasionally, you can hear some bird calls, but the sound seems to come from far away. Somewhat ethereal. It also makes it impossible to discern the specific direction.

"This is really evil!" Wu Tongcai frowned and muttered.

"Deputy Commander Wu, why don't we go back? I'm afraid you can't necessarily find food in this forest. One of his subordinates couldn't help but suggest to Wu Tongcai.

Wu Tongcai snorted: "I've been looking for less than half an hour, what's the hurry?" Look for another half an hour, and if you still can't find anything to eat, you'll talk about it then. ”

Wu Tongcai actually didn't want to wander around in this forest. But I didn't find anything to eat, and if I went back so early, I might be blamed by Commander Xia.
