Chapter 35 On the road to escape*14

"Crack~~Crack~Crunch~~"

There was a series of footsteps stepping on the branches.

"Dad - look, there is a stream here."

A young boy shouted in surprise.

"Haha... I didn't expect there to be a mountain spring halfway up the mountain."

A strong man who looked like an Orion looked in the direction of the young man and laughed.

"....Huh? Dad, look, there are people down there."

When the young boy turned back, he happened to see the mother and daughter Xia Mo downstream.

When Xia Mo heard the sound, he looked up and saw that he was not from the village. He looked very strange, so he turned back expressionlessly and continued to kill fish.

When the eldest and second niu saw the bearded hunter, they lowered their heads in fright, leaned closely to Xia Mo's side, washed all the fish in the basket and put them away.

Orion glanced at the mother and daughter, "Don't worry about others, hurry up and fill the water."

"oh....."

The young man withdrew his gaze, took the earthen pot and swam upstream.

At the entrance, one after another, a wave of people came in along with Orion, but it seemed that everyone was unfamiliar with them, and everyone held their own water.

But some villagers were a little moved when they saw the fish being killed in late summer, and their eyes would always glance towards her when they were filling the water.

But after seeing the bright kitchen knife in Xia Mo's hand, he was a little afraid to do it.

Orion saw some villagers always looking at the fish of mother and daughter, and felt a little worried. After all, it was because his son discovered this road and shouted out that it attracted so many people. Don't harm these people. Mother and daughter, three.

Fortunately, Orion also had some skills. He observed where his son was holding water and found fish swimming in the creek. He knew that the mother and daughter should have caught them in the creek as well.

He took the arrow on his back and threw it into the water without hesitation.

"Swish swish————"

He threw out three arrows and struck a fish.

"Wow——Dad, you are so powerful, such a big fish."

The little boy screamed excitedly when he saw the fish poked by his father's arrow.

The villagers' eyes were immediately attracted to the hunter.

The corner of Orion's mouth raised slightly, he pulled out the arrow and continued to poke into the water. Although he didn't always hit the target, he could always hit a fish three or five times.

The hunter's son jumped excitedly on the shore and picked up the fish his father threw up one by one into his basket.

When the villagers saw that the hunter had caught so many fish in a short time, they all sharpened branches, held them in their hands, and went to poke fish in the stream.

After all the fish were killed, washed and packaged at the end of summer, Mrs. Shi came out of the cave with the washed iron eggs.

Aunt Shi was shocked when she saw so many people by the stream. She was relieved when she saw Qingcao, mother and daughter, all well.

She pulled Tiedan, carefully bypassed the villagers, and came to Qingcao.

"Qingcao, let's go down the mountain. There are too many people here, and they are not from our village. It is not safe."

Aunt Shi pulled Qingcao's sleeve nervously and whispered.

Seeing so many people at the end of Xia, I was quite irritated. I was afraid that some blind person would come over and cause trouble, which would be quite annoying.

"Okay, let's go, these will be enough for a while."

At the end of summer, I packed up my things, carried the bamboo sticks on my back, and pulled a few handfuls of withered grass to cover the fish basket.

Mrs. Shi and Tiedan carried the earthen pots in the big basket and went down the mountain with Xia Mo.

When Aunt Shi walked to the exit, she did not forget to pull a few handfuls of longer hay and put it in the basket. This kind of long hay is strong and comfortable, and is the best for weaving straw sandals.

Orion raised his head and glanced at the group of people walking towards the exit, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. In this disaster, anyone who sees the three thin mother and daughter with so many fish will have their own thoughts.

Fortunately, these girls are not stupid, and they know how to cover them with grass before leaving.

On the way down the mountain, I met several groups of people from the village.

"Aunt Shi, did you find something good? Why does it smell like fish?"

The villagers stretched their heads curiously and looked into the basket that Mrs. Shi was carrying.

"Hey... what good things can there be in a bare mountain? It's not bad if we finally find some water. I drank water from the river, so it's normal for it to have a fishy smell."

The wild vegetables that Mrs. Shi found were all buried under the earthen jars. There were also many weeds in the basket, and only a few of the tops of the earthen jars could be seen.

"It's not bad that we found water, and we didn't run in vain."

The villagers pursed their lips and glanced at the late summer basket, but did not dare to ask. Who in the village didn't know that Mr. and Mrs. Song were indistinguishable and would scold whomever they caught.

"That's right, you can survive with water. Have you found anything good?"

Aunt Shi was also a little curious about what was in the villagers’ full baskets.

"Nothing, just some water. I was pretty lucky today and found some mushrooms."

The villager's eyes averted for a moment. The weeds in the bamboo basket did not cover the mushrooms, so he stretched out his hand to cover them again.

In fact, he still has a tortoise he touched in the river in his frame. It's not a good time to show off, as jealous people might snatch it from you, not to mention that there are everyone on the way down the mountain.

Aunt Shi nodded, "I'm so lucky, I've been able to eat it for a long time."

Seeing the sun rising higher and higher, the pace of going down the mountain in late summer is getting faster and faster, otherwise it will be hot and sweaty again.

Aunt Shi had Tiedan to help carry her, so she walked very slowly.

After a while, he distanced himself from the villagers.

Li was watching the villagers descending the mountain one after another, with more or less something in their hands. He was a little hesitant as to whether he should hurry up or not.

The main reason was that after being hungry and thirsty for so many days, I was really scared. Finally, I encountered a mountain where I could find some food and drink, so my intention to go on the road was a little shaken.

Li Zheng found the clan leader and discussed with him, "Look on this mountain, everyone can find some food and drink, and they can finally survive. Should we continue going south? What if we can't find food and drink again later?" "

The clan leader is also a little worried. The purpose of escaping to the south is to survive. Now you can find food and drink on this mountain top, which allows the villagers to survive. But if you really settle here, where to live becomes a problem.

You can't just have people from a village sleeping rough at the foot of a mountain, right? But if we continue to move forward, what if we can no longer find food and drink along the way and the villagers complain?

Both of them sighed.

When we came down the mountain in late summer, neither Li Zheng nor the clan leader had discussed a charter.

Xia Mo still didn't know about Li Zheng's hesitation to leave. If she knew, she would definitely despise him. Zheng here is really short-sighted. There are more and more refugees coming from this mountain. Soon Will be bald.

Back at the resting place, Xia Mo went to pick up ten fish from the basket and put them in Aunt Shi's big basket.

Aunt Shi was shocked when she saw so many fish, and she quickly wanted to pick up a few and stuff them back.

Xia Mo directly interrupted Aunt Shi's movements, "Auntie, bring me some wild vegetables."

"Oh, good."

Aunt Shi quickly grabbed a few handfuls of wild vegetables and stuffed them into Xia Mo's hands.

She also wanted to say that the fish gave her too much, but she was interrupted by Xia Mo just as she opened her mouth.

"Auntie, put your things away and put them in the salt shaker. Don't make any noise, otherwise others will look over you."

Xia Mo leaned against Aunt Shi and whispered.

Mrs. Shi glanced around and saw a few appreciative glances. She quickly pretended to say,

"It's so pitiful that even the wild vegetables have been stripped bare. God will not let this thief live."

Seeing Aunt Shi changing her face so quickly, Xia Mo almost couldn't hold back her laughter, "Auntie, just get over it. It's the same for everyone. It'll be good if you have water to drink."

The people around them all looked away after hearing that there was only water and not a few wild vegetables.

Aunt Shi trembled and patted her chest, thinking to herself, God, don't blame me, I'm just talking nonsense. It's God's blessing that I can find these.
