Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Not to mention, the long-term escape life has taught everyone in Dahezhuang how to starve. They have learned how to survive with the least amount of food.

Even if they only have a little bit of food, it has allowed them to survive until now.

Even though there is nothing in the desert, as long as there is water and food to eat, everyone can continue to survive.

Nowadays, many people rely on eating cactus to fill their stomachs.

There is no doubt that this thing is extremely unpalatable and they have no choice.

Yao Shu couldn't tell whether this was her imagination or not. Everyone's faces were a little green. She looked at the sand dunes in front of her and couldn't help but feel worried. She didn't know when it would start. Logically speaking, they should have gone out long ago. That's it.

But now she still doesn't see any hope of getting out of the desert.

She couldn't help but start to worry about food.

If this continues, she will have to take out the food from the system backpack.

Not only is she thinking about this, but so is the village chief.

As the head of a village, the village head has more things to worry about. He has a clear view of everyone's situation, and everyone is already stretched thin.

He couldn't help but look in the direction of Yao Shu, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of hope in his heart. He hoped that Yao Shu would provide food to help everyone tide over the difficulties like the previous times.

Who told him that he could no longer see any other hope?

But he couldn't say this anyway. They had already received too many favors from Yao Shu. They had the nerve to ask for more, and he didn't want to embarrass Yao Shu.

In this place filled with yellow sand, there is no place to find food.

But the village chief didn't hold on for long. He still had to help everyone find a way out, but even if he scratched his bald hair, he still couldn't think of any solution.

In his opinion, given everyone's current situation, unless it is blessed by Bodhisattva, there is no way to dig out food in the yellow sand.

The village chief walked hesitantly in front of Yao Shu, hesitating and unable to speak, as if his mouth had been glued shut.

Yao Shu could more or less guess what he had in mind, but the village chief really looked up to her too highly.

The reason why she was able to take out food in the past was because the system rewarded her with stored food, not because she was really that capable.

But it's not time yet for her to take out the last of her food reserves.

"Village Chief, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Sister-in-law, I, hey."

The village chief sighed, looking ashamed.

"I came to discuss with you to see if I can come up with an idea. If this continues, we won't be able to survive for a few days."

Just grab something for everyone to eat, and your body will collapse sooner or later.

"I think about it, and I think we should be able to get out soon."

Yao Shu could only comfort the village chief in this way.

The only thing she could be very sure of was that she had not gone in the wrong direction all this time. Even if there was a slight deviation, it must be heading northwest.

In this case, they can always reach Zhangzhou.

But these words seemed very pale in the face of the problem of insufficient food. The village chief smiled stiffly, which looked uglier than crying.

"I don't know what kind of hell this place is. It's just yellow sand. You can't even find grass roots or tree bark."

As if venting his anger, he grabbed a handful of sand in his hand and smashed it down hard.

In fact, Yao Shu has been thinking about this question, what else is there in the desert?

As she continued to think about what the village chief said, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and it wasn't like there was nothing else at all.

Apart from the cactus, there is one more thing.

She looked up at the village chief, the light in her eyes was very bright.

"I have an idea, but I don't know if everyone is willing to take the risk."

Even Yao Shu said something risky, which was really risky. If not, everyone would have done it long ago and would not have waited for him to bring it up at this time.

The village chief couldn't care about that much. No matter how dangerous it was, he had to give them some hope now. They couldn't really starve to death in this hellish place.

"Sister-in-law, please tell me quickly."

"Do you still remember the beast footprints we found some time ago?"

Not long after this incident, the village chief naturally still remembered it clearly, and he nodded.

"We found the water source by following the footprints, but as you saw, there is nothing to eat near the water source."

Otherwise they wouldn't be so stretched.

Seeing that he failed to think of the key point, Yao Shu reminded him.

"I also saw footprints recently. It stands to reason that with such big footprints, the beast is quite big."

After hearing what she said, a ridiculous idea came to the village chief's mind, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had heard something wrong.

He looked at Yao Shu with wide eyes and heard the next words.

"I think there should be a lot of meat from such a beast, enough for all of us to eat for a while."

If she hadn't been forced into a desperate situation, Yao Shu would not have made such an idea. She knew that this beast was difficult to deal with just by the size of its footprints. In the past, it was too late to hide, but this time she had to take the initiative to find him.

She was also worried in her heart, and she was really forced to do nothing.

"In case... I'll ask everyone what they mean."

The village chief was so stunned that he swallowed back those worried words. Even if he knew that some people might be injured, he could only choose to do this. He had no other choice.

Seeing the village chief turn around and go back to work, Yao Shu knew that the matter was basically settled, and they had to start a hunt in the desert.

There is no shortage of people who know how to hunt in Dahe Village. Based on the footprints left behind, if they spend more time and effort, they still have a high chance of finding prey, but it is hard to say whether they can successfully kill the prey after that. .

No one knew what they were facing. Just from a footprint, they couldn't guess what kind of animal it was.

As Yao Shu expected, everyone did not refuse even though their faces looked worried.

They all need snacks.

As they walked forward along the footprints, everyone became very nervous, fearing that a ferocious beast would suddenly jump out from around them.

Fortunately, such a situation did not happen, and things developed very smoothly. Even Yao Shu was surprised. Could it be that God suddenly changed his gender and didn't bother them anymore.

You know, she has lost her temper due to Kuhaha's experiences during this period.

"Look! Look ahead!"

A suppressed voice of excitement came to mind from the crowd.

If you listen carefully, you can also find that the voice is a little trembling. It is not excitement, but fear.
