Chapter 20: Hidden Worries
Fortunately, Qianhua Town is located in the corner of Qizhou, and the fleeing team did not rest for three days in a row, and escaped from the boundary of Qizhou under the stars.
Now they can finally have a good night's rest, and they don't have to worry about the True Dragon Army that is ravaging in Qizhou coming out.
Chen Wanli's face was pale, he forced his body to be tired, and stood in the lead and ordered: "Fellow villagers, everyone have a good night's rest tonight, and we will set off early tomorrow morning to continue our journey." ”
After speaking, Chen Wanli turned around and counted the sweet potatoes that were only three left, and the beans had already been eaten, this was the last food for their family.
"Liuniang, you and I will go outside to find something to eat." Chen Wanli's voice was a little hoarse.
He has been in a hurry, expending a lot of physical strength, and the original half bag of sweet potato beans eats quickly.
"You want me with you again? Your name is Ah Yuan! I'm not feeling well today! "Wen's has not eaten enough and slept poorly, and people seem to be a few years older.
"I said, Ah Yuan is still young! You mother, take care of it! Chen Wanli pulled Wen and walked into the woods on the side.
Even Chen Wanli's family is still like this, and the rest of the fleeing team is even more difficult.
They fled in a hurry, just to save their lives, and they didn't have much food and clothing at all, and now they are stretched thin.
Only the Su family is in a slightly better situation.
They seized the two hours of rest every day, filled with water, and looked for wild vegetables, and now there is a lot of food on the board car, and the bamboo tubes are also placed in a whole row.
Su Buwei went to find wild vegetables with Su Buwei as usual, and practiced swordsmanship by the way.
Today, there are more people going out to look for food, and you can see people everywhere.
Su Buwei didn't twist either, and took a branch to relive the swordsmanship.
Compared with the rustiness of the past few days, Su Buwei has improved a lot now.
After Su Buwei finished practicing, Su Buwei went to look for wild vegetables, but found that he couldn't find anything edible here.
"It's strange, I can still find some wild fruits and vegetable roots yesterday, and if I am lucky, I can touch a few bird eggs, why can't I find anything today?" Su Buwei said suspiciously.
Su Buwei frowned and thought about it, and pulled Su Buwei to the west, the shallow stream that he could see yesterday was gone.
"Second brother, the stream will be cut off here, it seems that we are going to enter the Yongzhou border."
Everyone in Qizhou knows that in Yongzhou, which is next door to Qizhou, only Yi County has a river passing through.
Su Buzhen was glad in his heart: Fortunately, their family rushed to make bamboo tubes before and filled them with a lot of water reserves.
Su Buwei said again: "Even if you go to Yongzhou, you won't even be able to find some wild vegetables!" ”
Su Buwei was shocked, did not answer, but pulled Su Buwei and walked back, found Su Yuanshan who was feeding the cattle and grazing, and told her what she found.
Su Yuanshan pondered for a moment and said, "Most of the people who fled from Yuanzhou also changed their route to Yongzhou after hearing that Qizhou had also fallen, and they happened to be ahead of us. ”
Su Buyi, who came over next to him, said worriedly: "I don't know how many people have to eat this land so cleanly!" ”
Su Yuanshan sighed helplessly, and said: "What we have now is quite enough, two pieces of bacon and three pickled fish have not moved, and there are still six sweet potatoes, everyone should be patient, you should be able to hold on for a while." ”
Su Buyi and Su Buwei frowned, they had obviously made enough preparations before, but they didn't expect that all the preparations were all blind work.
Su Buzhen thought in her heart that there was only a jar of water and some salt in her immortal mansion, and if she saved a little, she could only ensure that the Su family would not die of thirst.
As for eating, there is only fairy grass elixir in her immortal mansion, not to mention whether she can take it out, even if she takes it out, everyone can't eat it.
The wild flowers, wild grasses, and wild fruits that grow in the fairy mansion can't be full.
Alas... It's a pity that in the last life, she opened the valley early, and she was not keen on eating, so she did not let the valley pill enter the immortal mansion.
It's really troublesome now!
Su Bu was shocked and proposed: "Daddy, let's go back a little and pick up some things to stockpile!" ”
Su Yuanshan nodded: "Yes, let your second brother accompany you." ”
After getting the consent, Su Bujing and Su Buwei went back to find something to eat.
Su Yuanshan slowly paced in front of Chen Wanli with his hands behind his back and told him about the hidden danger at present.
"I suggest you find something to stock up on first, and the further back you go, the less you can find."
Chen Wanli nodded solemnly and called on everyone to go back and spend a day collecting wild vegetables and picking fruits.
However, there were still many people in the crowd who were lazy and disgusted with a lot of things, so they didn't go back with them, and lay on the ground to rest.
They think that Chen Wanli is doing this too much, it is just a coincidence that he didn't find food today, and he will definitely find it tomorrow, and there is no need to go back again.
It wasn't until sunset that the crowd rushed back.
Everyone who went came back with something in front of their clothes, and it seemed that they could last a few days if they saved a little.
After everyone simply put away the good food, they each found a place to lean on, and fell asleep.
Nowadays, it is difficult to use water, let alone washing your face and bathing, even the water you drink every day is counted to every sip.
Su Buwei and Su Buwei brought a lot of wild vegetables and mushrooms back, and Su Buwei also took the time to practice swordsmanship, but he was exhausted at this time and fell asleep.
Su Buxing couldn't sleep.
Forty or fifty people sleeping in one place at the same time can imagine how noisy it is.
grinding teeth, talking in dreams, snoring, and occasionally there are one or two children's cries, which make Su Buxing more and more awake the more he sleeps.
The weather was a little cooler, the grandmother of the Chen family and Chen Yuan curled up and rested in the corner of the cart, and the Su family also slept deeply.
After all, this is the only one that everyone has slept peacefully after fleeing for their lives.
Su Bu couldn't sleep, so he simply grabbed his purse and cultivated.
After absorbing the broken spirit stones in the purse, he took out a new one from the immortal mansion and cultivated until the sky was faintly white, and Su Bu was shocked before he opened his eyes.
After a night of repairs, everyone's faces were significantly better, and the speed of the journey was much faster than before.
Maybe it was because they knew that there was not enough food, so everyone walked vigorously, hoping to go to the county seat earlier.
Meals have also changed from two meals a day to one meal a day.
The original politeness and humility during the meal, the harmonious atmosphere of "you deliver the food, I will return some mushrooms" has completely disappeared.
Everyone was guarding against each other when cooking, for fear that others would come and compete for their own food.
The other side
Su Buyi lit a fire, Zhao counted six wild vegetables and put them in the pot, then twisted the salt with his hands, and took out four more fruits.
"Wait a while, one wild vegetable per person, drink the soup and eat another fruit."
The wild vegetable soup, to say that it sounds good, is called soup, and to put it bluntly, it is clear water wild vegetables, which is a little salty.
But this is already very good among the fleeing people.
The others fled without even thinking about the importance of salt, and had not even tasted saltiness for the past few days, and a bird came out of their mouths.
