"Mountain animals are migrating south."

Father Song's words dispelled the Song family's joy at seeing him bring back three pheasants.

Animals migrate south, which usually only happens around October, but this year it happened four to five months earlier!

This news is not good news.

Song's mother's hand trembled: "How about the pond in the mountain?"

"The water level in the pond is about the same as yesterday, but there are no traces of large animals around. I'm afraid it will be difficult this year..."

Father Song's words are not alarmist. In previous years, except for animals that are intolerant to the cold and would migrate south before winter comes, other animals in the mountains would still find caves to hibernate, such as black bears.

But today he went up the mountain and found that something was wrong, so he ran around to check around the caves that he didn't dare to go to. After squatting for a long time, he didn't see any such animals come back.

There is obviously still water in the mountains, but the animals can't stay. It seems that the situation is not optimistic this year.

"I'm going to my third uncle's house in the evening."

After saying that, Father Song took three pheasants and slaughtered them by the well.

Song's mother and Liu Qiao'er were restless after hearing this, and the work they were doing slowed down.

Song Liu was silent for a while, then went out to the town with a backpack on his back.

Song Nan continues her great career of pasting cakes.

Paste five pancakes and place one in the space, and two pancakes can actually be exchanged for one survival point.In order to survive, she smuggled in a lot of pancakes that day without being lazy at all.

In the evening, Song Bai and Dou Xiaomei came back from the county town.

"My father-in-law took the people from the escort agency to escort the escort. They had just set off when we came back. I told him about the situation in the back mountain, and he said that the escort trip would not take long, so he planned to go there."

Song Baiyue's family has also notified what should be notified. With the skills of their escort agency, they can thrive even in troubled times, so Song's father is not too worried.

After dinner, Father Song waved:

"Fourth, take a pheasant and follow me to your third grandfather's house."

Song Nan had guessed what Father Song was doing at Third Grandpa's house.

It's just a matter of telling what happened behind the mountain and his guess. The rest depends on what the third grandpa thinks in his heart.

Although there are many people and troubles on the road to escape, Song Nan also knows that with fewer people, it is easier to be targeted by others.

There are no elderly people in their family, but there are children and pregnant women, so it would be good to have an extra layer of security.

Song's father and Song Liu came back in the evening and told them to go to the town early tomorrow morning to buy two cows and put them on the cart.

"Everyone goes back to their houses to tidy up. As soon as the water in the river dries up, we get in the car and head south."

After returning to her room, Song Nan put away her clothes in a decent manner, then turned around and lay on the bed to exchange the pancakes she had smuggled out today for survival points.

From the previous 145 survival points, including today's ten basic survival points and the 18 survival points for exchanging cakes, Song Nan currently has a total of 173 survival points.

Song Nan didn't know what Song's father told Third Grandpa last night, but the next morning, Third Grandpa beat the gong to summon the villagers to gather under the big tree.

At around seven o'clock in the morning, Qingshan Village was abuzz with excitement.

Village Chief Song's words made the people in the village uneasy. Men, women, old people, and children were all talking. Everyone believed what Village Chief Song said and worried about how they should live their lives.

Some smart people had already gone home to stock up on water and went to the town to buy food. Others didn't believe it and went up the mountain with machetes to confirm. After getting off the mountain, they quickly took the money and went to the town.

By the time they went to town, Song Bai and Song Liu had already returned in an ox cart.

"car!"

Song Hao pointed at the bullock cart driven by his fourth uncle and shouted.

Behind Song Liu was a carriage half a person tall.

"Someone just happened to change his carriage, so I spent money to buy his old carriage back. Then Xiaoxi and the others can be more comfortable."

There is also a small half-board at the back of the carriage, and a lot of things can be piled on it.

Mother Song nodded: "It's good. You can put clothes and some food in it."

Three cows were placed in the Song family's backyard, and one of the cows was actually a carriage!

This incident did not cause a sensation because everyone was busy collecting food!

Wang Xiulan and Song Song went home and discussed what to do. They had no money to buy food.

"Mom, why don't you go back to Wang's house and ask? My uncle must still have food."

As soon as Song He said what he said, he was slapped by Wang Xiulan.

"Your uncle is still waiting for me to help!"

"How about we go back to the Song family and have a look? Didn't they buy a lot of food not long ago?"

Wang Xiulan's idea was opposed by Song Song.

He has no shame in going to the Song family again.

"Didn't I give you my wages yesterday? Take the money and buy some food and come back."

Wang Xiulan muttered: "Only 150 Wen, what can I buy?"

The only silent person in the room ignored these things and was in a state of confusion.

Why did the famine come so early?

There are obviously still a few months left!

Song He raised his head and said, "I'm going to the county town."

The Song family definitely couldn't go back, and she wouldn't go back to see Song Nan's proud look!

As long as Du Feng comes back, everything will be solved.

"Song Liumei! Get all the water bags in your cabinet!"

"Hey! Here we come!"

water bladder, water bladder.

Where are the water bladders?

Song Nan searched frantically in the room, and actually found seventeen water bladders in the cabinet.

These were all brought back by Song Bai's escort and kept piled in Song Nan's house.

Song Bai sighed: "I didn't expect there would be a time when I would use them."

Dou Xiaomei looked at the water bag with the name of her escort agency on it and shook her head and smiled. This guy really is.

After washing the water bag, fill it with salt and sugar water that Mother Song had mixed, and put it together with the large bags of cakes posted yesterday.

In nine days, the river Song Nan fell into became visibly shallower.

The villagers went from fetching water with buckets to scooping water from ladles to a group of people grabbing water from small puddles.Some people even climbed into the Song family yard in the middle of the night to see if there was still water in the well. In the end, they were caught by Song's father, Song Bai, and hung on a tree all night.

"The second couple went to the county town to pick up Xiaohuai. There is no need to buy anything. You just need to come back as quickly as possible. It's time to go..."

Song Baidou Xiaomei drove the car with a carriage to the county seat without saying a word.

The rest of the family put the luggage they had prepared one after another in the car. This was the first time Song Nan saw the power of the cart. It could really be loaded!

After the two oxcarts were loaded and tied up, a lot of things were missing from several rooms of the Song family.

I brought all the food I could carry, and put two quilts and some clothes on each cart... For safety reasons, the bullock carts were also covered with two layers of oilcloth.

There are two water tanks placed between the two bullock carts, and the water tanks are filled with water.Father Song found a way to cover the four water tanks tightly so that the water would not flow out as long as the car did not overturn.

Because of the water tank, Song's father pulled out the unharnessed cart at home.He piled things up without saying a word, as if the higher he piled things, the more peaceful he felt.
