Shen Daya also looked surprised. The two sisters ate the porridge happily and then came to the corpses. They decided to bury the corpses first. Although it was autumn, it was still relatively hot during the day. Yes, if these corpses were not buried, they would probably stink in a day.

It took the two of them a long time to bury these dozen corpses. They were both thin little girls, not very old. Although they were quite courageous, they were really not good at digging holes. So it takes a lot of time.

In the next few days, the two sisters collected water and chopped firewood, and settled down in the valley.

Their own food before, plus the dry food of the group of dead soldiers, was enough for the two of them to eat for ten days and a half.

In order to be cautious, Ling Xiaoxiao has not used the space in the past few days. Unexpectedly, her bet turned out to be right. The shadow man stayed here for several days, but he did not see anything interesting from Ling Xiaoxiao and Shen Daya. , and then left the valley.

Ling Xiaoxiao didn't know that the man in black was secretly monitoring and leaving. She had only experienced it in previous lives and always felt that someone was watching her, so she resisted the idea of ​​entering the space.

More than ten days later, Ling Xiaoxiao and the others decided to leave the valley and go to the mountains to buy some food, because they had no dry food and they would probably starve to death if they stayed here any longer.

Because of the two years of severe drought, it has been difficult to find food outside the mountain forest. Now that the two people in the mountain forest have money, they naturally do not plan to continue entering. They do not know if anyone is secretly watching, so Ling Xiaoxiao does not Dare to use space.

The two of them carried the big swords they got from the soldiers and walked toward the outskirts of the mountain forest. As mentioned before, Ling Xiaoxiao wanted to take out his good swords from the space and use them. Who knew that the shadow man appeared and interrupted them? He knew his plan, so Ling Xiaoxiao was holding the soldier's sword at this time.

The two of them followed the path out of the forest until noon. Then they came out of the forest, figured out the direction, and walked towards the north.

Because there is an official road leading directly to the north. If you follow the official road, you will always encounter the city. It seems that there is no one on the quiet official road, not even a bullock cart, let alone the one that happened some time ago. There were officers and soldiers running around.

Shen Daya's physical strength is much lower than that of Ling Xiaoxiao. Ling Xiaoxiao drank the spiritual spring water before, so her physical fitness is naturally much better than that of Shen Daya.

The two walked for more than an hour, and saw no one on the road without saying a word. When they were not far from the city gate, they found that the city gate was wide open and there were no officers and soldiers guarding the door. Ling Xiaoxiao's intuition told herself, It's very dangerous in that city.

He quickly pulled Shen Daya, who was about to run happily towards the city gate.

"You are looking for death! Did you find that the city gate is very different from usual? There are not even any officers and soldiers guarding the city, but you dare to go in!"

Shen Daya was like this just because she was happy. After hearing Ling Xiaoxiao's words, she immediately discovered something was wrong and asked stammeringly.

"Sister, what should we do? We have run out of food. If we don't go to the city to buy some more, we will be hungry tonight!"

Ling Xiaoxiao looked at the city gate and then at the nearby grove. She also knew that if they didn't get food today, the two of them would only be hungry. She thought about it.

"Then let's go in! Walk slowly. If we find something wrong, let's run. Just run towards this grove. As long as we run into the grove, we will be safe."

After the two sisters discussed it, they walked towards the city gate with their swords in hand. When they reached the city gate and stood still, they didn't find anything different. The city gate was wide open and there were no guards guarding the city. There were many corpses lying at the door.

There were civilians, some wearing silk and satin, and even some officers and soldiers. Looking at the armor on their bodies, it seemed that some of the dead people were rebel officers and soldiers.

Shen Daya also stepped forward and searched an officer and soldier, and found three taels of silver, and suddenly said happily.

"Sister, there is money!"

Ling Xiaoxiao didn't look at her, just nodded.

"Then put it away for later use. In my estimation, this city is probably already a dead city. Some of the corpses have begun to rot. This means that these people have been dead for at least three days. Let's quickly go into the city to search for them. Food, the most important thing now is food, I’m not in a hurry about money.”

The two of them also knew that this was not the time to delay again, so they immediately walked towards the city and walked along the streets. They were just looking for a rice and grain shop, but after entering several grain shops in succession, they only saw Some rice grains scattered on the ground were gone.

From this point of view, the rebel army should have won, otherwise these grain shops would not have been robbed. Seeing that the stewards and clerks in the shops were dead, Ling Xiaoxiao sighed, turned around and continued walking towards the street. .

But they searched all the food shops in the city and couldn't find any food. Ling Xiaoxiao stood on the quiet street full of corpses and thought for a while.

"Let's go look for the homes of those wealthy families. Maybe we can find some food, because wealthy families often have granaries to store food."

The two began to look for a wealthy family in the city. Not to mention they were lucky. This wealthy family seemed to have been robbed by the rebel army, but the skinny camel was bigger than a horse. Ling Xiaoxiao really took Shen Xiaoxiao with him. Daya found a granary.

The two lit torches and entered the cellar where the grain was stored. They found that there were thousands of kilograms of grain in it. They were very happy because they finally didn't have to go hungry tonight.

"Sister, let's stay in the city! There's a lot of food here, and we can't take it away. We'll still starve to death if we go out. Why not live here? There's food every day, which is enough for us to eat."

After all, Shen Daya is a real eight-year-old child. She is not very clear about dangers and does not consider things completely. Ling Xiaoxiao has an adult mind and knows that she cannot stay in this city for long.

"There are many dead bodies in this city, and some of them have begun to rot. If we stay here any longer, we will catch the plague and die here! It's better to take some food and leave as soon as possible!"

After saying that, he didn't talk nonsense. He stepped forward and weighed one of the bags and found that it weighed about forty or fifty kilograms. If the two sisters could eat it for a month, he said.

"Let's each carry a bag and go. I think it will be enough to last for a while."

Shen Daya also realized that what he said before was wrong, so he nodded.

"Well, let's leave here quickly! It will probably get dark soon.

After saying that, the two of them each carried a bag of grain, climbed out of the cellar, and walked quickly out of the city.
