After a day's journey and another fight with the refugees at noon, both adults and children were exhausted.
The adults didn't care about resting, so they built a stove with stones and started to light a fire to cook.
Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan did not rest. They wandered around to see if they could find a way into the mountain.
Ye Mingzhe and Xiaosong Daniu followed behind them.
Ye Yutong lay there without any image, not wanting to move. He just drank a bamboo tube of water, and now he was so hungry that he could eat a cow.
Seeing that her mother and several aunts were cooking there, she wanted to bring something from the space to add to the meal, but she couldn't find an excuse.
I had no choice but to eat it secretly.
Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan took a few children around in a large circle, but they couldn't find the way up Lingnan Mountain.
I made wild vegetable paste for dinner, and several aunts said that I didn’t have to travel in the evening, so there was no need to eat so well, and that I would have something dry to eat in the morning.
Ye Yutong looked at the clear soup with little water, and felt very uncomfortable. She had so much food in her space, but she couldn't take it out for everyone to have a full meal.
Just wait and think of a solution when we get to the mountain.
When they were sleeping at night, Li Wenxiu used a cart to block her and Ye Yutong.
She planned to go to the gods to help with the work tonight. During this period, she ate a lot of food from the gods, but she didn't do much work for others.
The forty-nine days were almost over, and she had to go in and finish the work inside.
Before going in, he greeted Ye Mingxuan and asked him to help cover outside.
After the two mothers entered, they divided the labor and cooperated. One went up the mountain to collect eggs, and the other picked them in the fields.
Li Wenxiu put basket after basket of various vegetables and fruits into the basement.
She thought this was too slow, so she found a wooden stick as a pole and carried it back.
The two worked for more than an hour, but couldn't pick half of the vegetables in the field. Li Wenxiu was a little anxious and wanted to work a little longer.
But Ye Yutong was afraid that her body couldn't bear it. She had already walked all day during the day, and if she continued to do farm work for so long at night, she would be tired and sick, which would be more than worth the loss.
Harvest the fruits and vegetables in the fields slowly, and feed the animals when they are old. There are so many animals on the mountain, and they have to eat a lot every day.
The two came out of the space, everyone was asleep, and the two vigilantes sat there talking.
The snores of Yongchang and Wencai carried far away, singing in harmony with the frogs in the distance.
Ye Yutong came out of the space. He was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes. When he heard this voice, he smiled and became energetic again.
This place is considered to be in the mountains, far away from the official road and the small road. There are very few refugees nearby. Everyone feels more relaxed and sleeps deeply at night.
I haven't had such a good sleep in many days. When I wake up in the morning, everyone is full of energy.
Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan got up earlier than everyone else, and they went to find the way into the mountain again.
Because I have to travel during the day, I need to eat something dry in the morning to have strength.
A few women made two pots of wild vegetable steamed buns with a little salt in them. Although they were made of sorghum noodles, they are still very good to eat.
When Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan came back, there were no expressions on their faces. Ye Yutong knew it, but they couldn't find it.
But think about it, from their description, there are very few people walking on that trail.
They were not locals. It was summer again and the weeds were very lush. It was still a bit difficult to find an inconspicuous mountain road.
But don't be too anxious, this place is pretty safe now, and everyone can continue looking for it after eating.
Brother and sister Dayuan and Qiaoer sat next to Li Wenxiu, nibbling the steamed buns in their hands.
Dayuan said with red eyes: "Auntie, this steamed bun is so delicious. My sister and I have never eaten such good food since my father died."
Li Wenxiu touched his head and said gently: "Dayuan, don't be sad. When we enter the mountains, life will be better. Auntie will prepare delicious food for you every day."
"Thank you, auntie. When we get to the mountain, my sister and I will go out to look for food. We won't just eat for free."
Ye Mingzhe said with a smile: "We will dig wild vegetables together, and we can also learn hunting from Uncle Yongchang. I heard that there are a lot of pheasants and rabbits in the mountains."
"Brother Mingzhe, is it true? Is there really so much food on the mountain?"
"Of course. My brother-in-law said that there are a lot of game animals on the mountain. When we get to the mountain, he will teach us martial arts. Once we learn the martial arts, we can hunt pheasants and rabbits."
After listening to Ye Mingzhe's words, several children also came over with steamed buns and sat there listening to his bragging with relish.
Ye Yutong finished eating the steamed buns and said: "Brother, Ping An, let's go look for it after we eat! According to the place you mentioned, the way into the mountain should be nearby. There are lush weeds here, so it doesn't necessarily matter if it is blocked. ."
"Tongtong is right. Let's pull out the grass with a stick later and look for it carefully."
It was already dark when we were looking for it yesterday, and they both got up early this morning. It was not very bright at that time, so there is no doubt that they had overlooked something.
After dinner, a few people were left to look at things, while the remaining children took sticks and looked for the trail Huang Erguang mentioned nearby.
Ye Yutong looked at a small tree covered with thorns in front of him. Isn't this a honey locust tree?
In ancient times, this was used for washing clothes, bathing, and washing hair.
Look at a few saplings underneath. She dug two plants, placed them quietly in the space, and planted them on the hillside at night. They would be used for washing clothes in the future.
"Sister, what are you doing? Pack your things quickly and find the way into the mountain." Ye Mingzhe shouted excitedly.
"Have you found the way? Where is it?" Ye Yutong was surprised. He searched all over the area yesterday and couldn't find the way up the mountain. How long did it take to find it?
Ye Mingzhe explained: "The crooked-neck tree is not big, and it was blocked by weeds. My brother-in-law only saw it when he climbed up a big tree."
"It's good that I found it."
She breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they entered the mountain, this troubled world would have nothing to do with them. "Second brother, let's leave quickly!"
Huang Erguang is right, this is really a trail. There should be very few people walking there, and there are weeds growing on both sides.
Yongchang and Wencai took machetes and cut the grass on both sides to clear the way, and they could barely pass a truck.
Because it was an uphill road, it was very difficult for the horses to pull. Ye Mingzhe and several children were behind to help push.
Li Yunzhe and Ye Yutong wanted everyone to give up the carriage, but judging from the way the adults avoided it, they knew they were definitely unwilling.
The two of them didn't speak. They had already entered the mountain anyway, so let's walk slowly.
Until now, Ye Yutong breathed a sigh of relief and took a look at the green trees in the mountains, which were covered and entangled, and slanted out.
I felt that everything was so beautiful. From then on, I retired to the mountains and forests, farmed and hunted, men farmed and women weaved.
This kind of isolated life is what she has been yearning for since her previous life.
