As the sky grew brighter, Shu Zhihan and Mi Yue opened their eyes at the same time.
It was as if the early morning sunlight awakened their senses.
They sat up from under the big tree, feeling the freshness and tranquility brought by the breeze, as well as the renewed energy when they first woke up.
Shu Zhihan gently raised her head and saw the morning sunlight beginning to shine through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow.
She felt the breeze blowing by, bringing with it a hint of coolness, and also smelled the fresh aroma of grass and trees.
This way of waking up made her feel peaceful and peaceful. She closed her eyes gently, seeming to reminisce about this beautiful moment.
At the same time, Miyue also woke up.
She saw Shu Zhihan's peaceful face and the leaves penetrated by the sun.
She felt the stillness and serenity of the early morning, which made her feel comfortable.
This beautiful scenery made her feel relaxed and happy. She took a deep breath, as if she was absorbing the essence of nature.
The scene when the two woke up was very similar, but their feelings were different.
"Miss, you're awake too. This is the first time I've slept so soundly outside."
Shu Zhihan nodded, "Well, I think so too. The feeling here is really great."
Mi Yue stood up and quickly reached out to help Shu Zhihan up.
"How long will it take for us to arrive?" Mi Yue asked.
Shu Zhihan glanced at her meaningfully, and then said slowly: "To be honest, I'm not very clear either."
"Okay, I'll listen to the lady anyway."
Miyue pouted slightly and said, holding her hand with both hands and shaking it.
"You still listen to me. I didn't ask you to stay well in the general's mansion, but what about you now, do you listen to me?"
When she mentioned this, Miyue couldn't help but stick out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, then, my most beloved young lady, where are we going now?"
"Now, how about we go find something to satisfy our hunger?"
As soon as Mi Yue heard that she could eat, she felt very happy.
Shu Zhihan and Mi Yue were walking side by side in the woods, their eyes keenly scanning the surrounding trees and grass, looking for edible plants and fruits.
Shu Zhihan walked in front, her steps were light and slow, like a nimble deer, and her eyes were like burning, as if she was looking for something special.
She gently pushed aside some dense branches and leaves, found a few wild fruits hidden among them, and shouted excitedly: "Miyue, look here!"
Mi Yue came in response. After seeing the wild fruit, her eyes flashed with joy. She squatted down, carefully picked up the fruit with both hands, and then put it under her nose to smell it.
Fruity and fresh with a hint of sweetness.
She turned to Shu Zhihan and said, "Miss, we can eat this, it looks delicious."
Shu Zhihan nodded, her face full of expectation.
They continued walking forward and soon found a lush field of wild vegetables.
These wild vegetables are green and tender and look very delicious.
Shu Zhihan smiled happily. She bent down and cut some wild vegetables with the dagger she carried.
Miyue looked around and noticed some birds and small animals in the woods.
Unexpectedly, she took out a slingshot from her baggage, raised it, and aimed at the target in the distance.
With firm eyes and skillful movements, she accurately shot a rabbit in one fell swoop.
When Shu Zhihan saw this scene, she felt proud of Mi Yue.
"Wow, Miyue, when did you know this? You're so awesome."
Mi Yue was a little embarrassed by her praise, so she said, "This is actually Meng Haowu. He insisted on teaching me at that time. Well, he did this himself."
She raised the slingshot in her hand in front of Shu Zhihan and shook it, unable to hide the proud look on her face.
Mi Yue quickly lit a fire in the clearing.
She deftly rubbed stones and hay to create sparks, and then ignited the dry firewood with ease.
Miyue sat by the fire and washed the wild vegetables. Then he took a piece of burning wood from the fire, put it under the pot, and started cooking the wild vegetables.
The fragrance of wild vegetables came out in the steaming heat, and Mi Yue waited patiently.
She knew it would take time, but she was not in a hurry. After all, in the wild, this kind of patience and waiting was what was needed.
While she was waiting, she began to deal with the birdie she had just hit.
Miyue took the bird out and gently placed it on the wooden board next to it.
Under the sun, this little being who had just been beaten down trembled slightly, seeming to be seeking salvation.
Mi Yue looked at its bright and frightened eyes, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, but she knew that she could never be soft-hearted. After all, her young lady was pregnant now and had to take care of herself.
She took a stick of charcoal from the fire and drew mysterious symbols on the bird's wings and tail.
The symbols are not complicated, but they represent respect and prayer for the full moon.
She didn't want to use this little bird's life to sacrifice anything, she just wanted to end its pain in the most respectful way.
She took out some herbs that she had collected in the woods just now, knowing that these herbs could add to the taste of food.
She used a clean stone to gently rub 2 crushed herbs onto the bird's body, letting the scent of the herbs fill the air.
Then, Mi Yue found a slender wooden stick and passed it through the bird's mouth, from the throat to the tail.
This is to fix the bird's position and prevent it from moving during the roasting process.
Finally, she placed the bird on the hot stone and began to bake it.
The bird's body slowly turned brown under the high temperature, and its skin made a crackling sound.
Miyue turned the bird's body over so that it could be heated evenly.
She smelled the aroma of burnt flesh, a smell that was both unfamiliar and familiar at the same time.
When the bird was roasted, Mi Yue brought it in front of Shu Zhihan.
Miyue cut the bird open with a knife. Its meat was tender and delicious.
After the wild vegetables were cooked, Miyue picked out a piece with wooden chopsticks and put it in his mouth to taste.
The deliciousness of the wild vegetables and the warmth of the hot soup put a satisfied smile on her face.
Shu Zhihan's beautiful eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe what was happening in front of her.
She always thought that Miyue was a delicate girl, but she never expected that in this wilderness, she could master many survival skills so skillfully.
Miyue's series of actions just now, whether it was looking for food or handling birds, all showed her amazing survival wisdom.
Shu Zhihan looked at Mi Yue's flexible skills and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Mi Yue, are you still the Mi Yue I know? How many other abilities do you have that I don't know about?"
Shu Zhihan's curiosity was aroused. She approached Mi Yue and asked softly: "How come you know so many things? Who taught you?"
Mi Yue smiled and said, "These are all taught to me by Meng Haowu. He said that although they may not be used, they can be used just in case if they are learned."
Shu Zhihan felt emotional after hearing this, and she began to look at Mi Yue even more with admiration.
Mi Yue looked at her as if she was surprised, and then said with a smile: "Miss, you see, I really won't be as weak as before, so having me by your side to protect you and take care of you is Isn’t it also a good choice?”
Hearing what she said, Shu Zhihan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Shu Zhihan looked at the moon like this and thought to herself that she still had to work hard to enrich herself.
She and Mi Yue sat side by side at the dining table, with the freshly made delicacies in front of them, exuding an alluring aroma.
They laughed and laughed while tasting the delicious food, and their hearts were full of joy.
Shu Zhihan took a bite of the bird's meat. The meat was fresh and tender. She couldn't help but praise: "That's great, Mi Yue, what you made is so delicious!"
Their faces were filled with contentment and happiness.
They enjoyed this wonderful moment together and felt very happy. This happiness not only came from the food, but also from each other's company and the good time spent together.
At this moment, Shu Zhihan and Mi Yue shared their feelings with each other and talked about various topics. Their voices and laughter were intertwined with the wind and birdsong in the forest, forming a harmonious and beautiful picture.
At this moment, they felt very happy, this happiness was so pure and real.
After eating, the two of them tidied up a little, and then prepared to continue on their way.
They walked side by side on the long loess road, and the faint smell of dust was in sharp contrast to the simplicity of their fluttering clothes.
Shu Zhihan's hair was dancing in the breeze, her light blue clothes were shining in the sun, and her smart eyes were full of expectation and determination.
Miyue, on the other hand, was dressed in purple, with a smile on her face, and her delicate face showed calmness and restraint.
Their steps were calm and firm, as if the road had no end and they could keep going.
As the two of them walked on the road, the scenery along the road was constantly changing, from quiet forests to bustling markets, every place was full of freshness and unknowns.
Shu Zhihan occasionally stops to carefully observe the wild flowers on the roadside, or holds a hand of clear water by the stream.
Miyue waited quietly. When night fell, they found a grassland to set up camp and used the most primitive method to light a bonfire to drive away the cold.
Along the way, they experienced ups and downs, but they never complained or felt tired.
When Shu Zhihan finally saw the village that people talked about, her heartbeat accelerated instantly, beating against her chest like a drum.
It was a mixture of anticipation, excitement and nervousness that made her heart feel like it was beating out of her chest.
She couldn't help but wonder, was Luo Jinyu here?
Have you really arrived?
Mi Yue next to her seemed to be in the same excited mood, and the two of them just stood at the door of the village stupidly, not moving for a long time.
Let the breeze blow on your face.
