Chapter 78 Going up the mountain to look for food
After saying that, Li Guifen pulled Zhang Liuwa over and gently patted his buttocks, her eyes full of determination: "Change, starting today, you must change."
On the other side, Xu Liyun was leading the children to run happily at the foot of Daxiu Mountain, laughing and talking happily, completely unaware that those pieces of cakes had inadvertently paved a new trajectory for Zhang Liuwa's life.
Life is like a game of chess. One wrong move can lead to a complete loss. However, a small gift of pastries became the key to a turning point, silently.
Last night, the bright moonlight sprinkled thinly in the quiet valley, and a low and powerful tiger roar pierced through the night, stirring every corner of the valley.
This sound should have been blocked by the mountains and should not have been able to pass through the deep forest and reach this remote village.
However, Xu Liyun's thatched house happened to be at the foot of the mountain. The wooden structure seemed to breathe with the mountain. In addition, Xu Liyun herself had a pair of keen ears that could capture subtle sounds, so the tiger's roar was clearly audible.
She secretly calculated in her mind, anticipating that after the struggle in the mountains and forests, there must be some valuable traces or prey left behind. For a family like theirs that relied on the gifts of nature, this would undoubtedly be a rare opportunity for replenishment.
Seeing that the wild fruit reserves at home were dwindling to the point of being stretched to the limit, Xu Liyun decided to go up the mountain herself to look for possible sources of food.
In addition to the sensible and obedient Zhang Sanwa, there were also several younger and curious children who wanted to go together. They surrounded Xu Liyun and clamored to join the expedition.
Looking at the innocent faces of the children, Xu Liyun finally nodded and agreed, and decided to take them along.
In the early morning, the sunlight shone through the treetops, dappling onto the winding path. A group of four people followed closely in the footsteps of their predecessors, carefully walking through the dense forest.
Zhang Siwa had an almost instinctive knowledge of every plant and tree in the mountains. His little hands flexibly pushed aside the grass, not only picking many juicy and delicious wild fruits, but also bending down from time to time to dig, digging out several clusters of fresh wild onions and several colorful wild mushrooms that were confirmed to be non-toxic from the soil. It was a good harvest.
"Mom, look how plump these mushrooms are. If we can catch a pheasant, we can have a delicious meal of chicken stewed with mushrooms tomorrow!" Zhang Siwa suggested proudly.
Xu Liyun couldn't help but smile when she thought of her son's admirable cooking skills. At the same time, she looked around vigilantly, watching for any signs of pheasant activity, ready to catch them at any time.
However, as they continued to go deeper into the forest.
It was a mess here. The scratches between the trees seemed to silently tell a story of a contest between strength and courage. The mottled bloodstains on the ground seemed to record the smokeless war at night.
Although the earth was silent, a subtle tension and uneasiness still remained in the air.
The young girl in the team seemed a little timid and uneasy when faced with this somewhat hideous scene.
Xu Liyun, who understood her daughter's thoughts, gently arranged for her to stay in the marginal area, away from the remaining traces of the battle.
The little girl carried her small bamboo basket and sat down obediently in the designated place, waiting patiently for her family to clear the way ahead.
As time passed, her legs began to ache, so she found a piece of soft grass, sat down on it, and began to observe the world around her.
A group of busy ants attracted her attention. They shuttled in an orderly manner among the fallen leaves and the soil, building their own little kingdom.
Just as she was immersed in the orderly beauty of this tiny world, a slight and continuous rustling sound came from the grass not far away, interrupting her thoughts.
The little girl looked in the direction of the sound and saw a small mound of earth that had risen up from under a pile of messy dead leaves. It was moving slowly, as if some living creature was approaching her.
At this moment, a furry thing suddenly broke out of the shell from the pile of dirt. It was a small creature with black and white stripes on its head, and a faint "King" mark on its head!
Its eyes are round and sparkling with an ice-blue luster. They are pure and mysterious, so beautiful that they make people feel pity for them.
The little girl unconsciously lay on the ground, getting closer and closer to this strange yet charming little life. There were two pairs of eyes, one was that of an innocent child, and the other was that of a little animal that had just experienced the world. If there were any bystanders present at this scene, they would be deeply moved by the innocence and harmony in it.
The little black and white striped guy seemed to be full of curiosity about the world, and it gently shook its wet little nose.
Then, it staggered with its soft little paws, trying to move towards the little girl. Unfortunately, it was still young and lacked strength, and its feet seemed to have scars that had not yet healed. After taking a few steps, it was tripped by a piece of grass root that was inadvertently exposed on the ground, and rolled clumsily into the little girl's arms, causing the little girl to laugh out loud.
The little creature seemed to be frightened by the rolling just now. It shook its head and then sneezed loudly. Its naive appearance added a bit of funny and cuteness, which almost melted the little girl's heart.
Although she couldn't recognize the species of this black and white little creature, she judged from its cat-like appearance that it was a lost kitten, so she naturally and gently held it in her arms and comforted it with her warm embrace.
And this furry little thing didn't show any resistance at all. It seemed to enjoy the closeness and care from humans, and its small body was pressed tightly against the little girl's chest.
In this small world surrounded by nature, a warm and wonderful encounter is happening quietly.
Feeling the "cat's" subtle but firm dependence, the little girl felt an indescribable joy in her heart.
She moved gently as if she was treating the most precious treasure, carefully avoiding the distressing wounds. Then, she gently pressed her cheek against the "cat's" silky soft, naturally fragrant fur, and an inexplicable sense of security immediately spread throughout her body.
"My dear, come to me, all danger is far away from us."
Xu Liyun's voice was gentle. After making sure the surroundings were safe, she gently called out to her daughter.
When the little girl heard the voice, an innocent smile appeared on her face. Although the "cat" in her arms made her steps a little unsteady, she still tried her best and almost staggered all the way to her mother's arms.
"Mom, mom, look, I found a little friend. Although it is injured, I believe it will get better!" There was a gleam in her eyes, as if she had discovered the greatest treasure in the world.
She gently placed the "cat" in front of her mother, her tone was a bit pleading and a bit insistent: "Mom, it needs help. We can take it home and let Dad use his medical skills to heal it, okay? It will also become a member of our family, right?"
