[Red House] That natural stay

The two of them can be regarded as returning home with a full load, and they have gained these for the first time when they came out.It can be seen that in a desperate situation, as long as you work hard to find, there will be a way out, even if the road is extremely narrow.But it's a way of life.

These 'fruits' have been frozen into 'ice fruits' one by one. If you want to eat them, you have to wait for a while.The two of them were not in a hurry, and then went to their respective places to search for some. After that, they picked up a lot of firewood and were ready to go back.

The snow was still floating, and the original footprints in the woods were quickly covered up and returned to their original appearance.After inspecting today's harvest, Mo Jue estimated that it should be able to last for a few days.This is enough, and they will leave as soon as possible in these few days.

After that, the two of them went back again, coming empty-handed and returning with a full load.

When it was getting dark, the two of them saw the familiar cave.It was still the same, everyone in the cave sat around each other, or fell asleep with their heads tilted, or stared in a daze.Seeing the two of them back, some secretly regretted while others secretly rejoiced.In short, Mo Jue and Xia Rong don't care about these things.

Xia Rong lay down against the wall again, and Mo Jue placed the fire that he had brought back ready to be lit, which made the eyes of the others brighten again.The wood or other ignitable things around the cave have been picked up, otherwise they would not sit together to keep warm.But he didn't dare to go to a farther place, for fear that he would die outside and there would be no one to collect the body.

The fire gradually ignited, rising with the continuous smoke and heat.Xia Rong at the side moved forward, feeling extremely warm in an instant.The fire is getting stronger, as long as it is regularly added to the fire.Mo Jue also sat down beside Xia Rong, took out the fruits wrapped in cloth, picked two at random and put them beside the fire.Soon, the ice on the surface began to melt, and the cold air burst out.

The eyes of other people in the cave drifted over, and some nearby people even leaned towards this side unconsciously. Seeing that Mo Jue and the two did not stop, they were delighted and moved closer.

The ice outside was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it was estimated that it was almost there, so Mo Jue picked up one of them and handed it to Xia Rong.The other party took a bite carefully, his eyes lit up, obviously very satisfied with the taste.

"Little Jue, hurry up and try it too!" Can't help urging.

Mo Jue then took a bite, and the fresh and sweet taste instantly melted in his mouth. It was cool but hot, and a strange but novel feeling melted on the tip of his tongue.He narrowed his eyes happily.This should be the last fruit with a bit of astringency to ripen. It fell to the ground after being blown by the strong wind, and was soon covered by heavy snow and covered with a thick layer of ice.As time goes by, the astringency fades and gradually matures, proudly retaining the original deliciousness and sweetness of the fruit.

Soon, the two finished eating.Reminiscing, this taste is pears.Looking at the other 'frozen fruits' on the ground, thinking that they don't know how long they will stay here, and that they should prepare some food even if they leave, they all looked away at the same time.As long as you can fill your croaking stomach, as for being full, let’s talk about it after leaving here!

Others just swallowed their mouths. Regardless of their empty stomachs, they said that there was no shortage of food some time ago, and they were all meat dishes. Where have they seen such fresh fruits for seasoning.But they didn't dare to go forward and ask where they found it. They know very well that if one more person knows, one more person will share it. If they were themselves, they wouldn't be so easy to tell others about this "life-saving" thing. ?

"My lords, can you tell me where you found this?" Suddenly, a cautious voice sounded not far from Mo Jue.

Looking up, it was a boy about twelve or thirteen years old.Careful expression, clear eyes.His face was sallow, almost a piece of skin wrapped around his bones, and he was even thinner than other people here.

Mo Jue's expression changed, but he didn't make a sound.Xia Rong didn't express anything when he saw this. He has been on the battlefield for many years, and he is not a good person. Moreover, this is the place where the young man discovered, so he naturally has the right to speak.So he lowered his eyes.

The young man didn't get an answer for a long time, his eyes dimmed, and there was a deep sadness in his eyes.As if the only way out was cut off, the breath of despair was clearly received by Mo Jue on the opposite side.

He had some impressions of this child. In the entire cave, he was curled up in a small corner alone, as if isolated and ignored.His eyes were closed for a long time, and he was so fragile that he would die in the next second.

"Go north for half an hour."

A voice suddenly entered his ears, and the young man who was about to leave carefully suddenly raised his head and looked at Mo Jue who was opposite him.But he saw that the other party was still expressionless, and he had never spoken.But he heard these words very clearly, and he was sure that the voice belonged to the big brother opposite.After all, the events of the past few days were too shocking, and the faint admiration in his heart made him pay special attention to Mo Jue.

He carefully and covertly glanced around with the end of his eyes, and saw that the other people did not respond, but were watching the situation here either mockingly or watching the show.I knew in my heart that if it wasn't my own auditory hallucinations, then the other party used some special method so that only he could hear it.There was an unprecedented joy in my heart, but I still suppressed it carefully, then turned around and left silently.It's just that the eyes looking at Mo Jue were full of gratitude.

He was absolutely sure that it was the latter that he had guessed, and he admired Mo Jue even more in his heart.After that incident, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he has never hated his own weakness so much.All the time, I desperately hope to become stronger.And just at this time, Mo Jue appeared, as if setting a benchmark, telling him what a truly powerful person should look like.

Some people who originally wanted to go forward to ask questions silently rested their minds when they saw that the boy had returned without success.If the other party is in a bad mood, they may not be as lucky as that kid, and they can come back with all their tails.Don't you see that those people are in great pain every night now?In just a few people, they were tortured beyond human appearance.

Early the next morning, the genius was slightly bright.The young man who asked Mo Jue last night set off. Before leaving, taking advantage of the dark sky, he bowed to the place where Mo Jue was not far outside the cave.Then he turned and left resolutely, with some kind of determination.

Mo Jue immediately opened his eyes, staring at the direction in which the boy left, without moving for a long time.He appreciates such a person who perseveres in adversity.

Except for Mo Jue, no one noticed the boy's departure.After this day passed, the boy stumbled back at dusk.The originally thin clothes on his body were scratched everywhere, with bloodstains, and even some places were still oozing blood.His face was also bruised and purple, but even so, he still held his hands tightly, and there were two jelly fruits inside.

Facing all kinds of gazes in the cave, he walked up to Mo Jue and the two of them, and handed one of them to him.

Mo Jue stared at him for a while before saying, "Take it!"

The young man shook his head, his hands resolutely stopped in mid-air.

The two confronted each other silently for a while before Xia Rong couldn't help laughing and said, "Sit down." Why did he find the scene in front of him so funny?They are obviously two and a half teenagers.

Seeing that Mo Jue didn't make a sound, the young man carefully sat down on the other side of Mo Jue as if by default.And some people who had seen the boy take out two jelly fruits had no choice but to throw their hands at this time.Thinking of looking for another chance, even if the two jelly fruits were eaten, they could still find out where they fell.

Seeing that Mo Jue was determined not to want him, the young man couldn't help but withdraw his hand sadly.Thinking that the other party is not lacking at all, maybe it is because they look down on me.When I was secretly sad, a small porcelain white bottle suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

"Clean up the wound on your body." I only heard the other party say.

Tears welled up in the boy's eyes instantly. Looking at Mo Jue, big tears fell down his face.Seeing his appearance, Mo Jue was a little baffled and flustered, and at a loss, he cast his eyes on Xia Rong for help.

Xia Rong coughed twice, he is not someone who would comfort others.Coupled with the long-term expressionless face, sometimes comfort often turns into reprimand, and the effect is counterproductive.

"Why are you crying, man, don't shed tears when you bleed!" He whispered softly.

But the young man was contrary to his usual humility and introversion, and retorted: "A man doesn't flick his tears easily, but he hasn't reached the point where he's sad."

Xia Rong choked, how should he answer this?

But the boy still wiped away the tears on his face.

The three put their own jelly fruits beside the fire. There was no fire during the day, and only at night when it was colder would they light a fire.So there is still some fuel left.Mo Jue discussed with Xia Rong that after burning all these materials, it will probably be tomorrow, and then he will leave here and continue on his way the day after tomorrow.

The frozen fruit slowly melted, and Xia Rong took out the half-remained rabbit caught yesterday, and put it on the fire to roast.The fragrance gradually wafted out, tempting people to swallow their saliva continuously.

The fire is huge, and Xia Rong's craftsmanship is also very good.There is no burning phenomenon, but it is baked instantly.Divided the rabbit meat into three portions and handed one piece to the boy, who took it flattered.The three of them ate rabbit meat with fruits with great relish.

It made other people jealous.

Afterwards, Mo Jue asked the boy some questions, such as where they lived and how the snow disaster was when they escaped.Based on the other party's answer, they can speculate on the current situation in the Jiangnan area. Although their current location is also close to Jiangnan, they are still somewhat different after all.The information in the young man's words was not complete, but it still gave Mo Jue a glimpse of the real situation in Jiangnan.

The village they live in is on the Jiangnan border, so they still have a chance to escape after the snowstorm destroyed their homes.And more villages are faced with heavy snow blocking roads, collapsed houses, and insufficient food storage, so they can only wait for death.As for the government's situation, he didn't know much about it.

As for the boy himself, because he had a disease, it was said that it was contagious, and his father died because of it, so he was saved from being reduced to 'food'.

At this time, the large troops for disaster relief were gradually approaching Jiangnan.
