Chapter forty-two: Steal

The road to Yiyang Mansion is a main road, very wide, and there are also a few refugees walking on this road.

Without Guan Shan's good ears, Xu Chunshan and the four of them wouldn't have to hold back on what they wanted to say.

Taking advantage of the stop and rest, when everyone was at their own convenience, Xu Yinyin also hurriedly took out the opened bottle of glucose, and took another can and opened it. Several people ate and drank among them to replenish water and energy. .

After this month, to be honest, I really can’t stand it anymore.

The canned pork was a 500-gram portion. Four people each ate a large piece. The meaty taste spread in their mouths. They were so excited that Xu Yinyin and Xu Dajun almost cried.

Xu Chunshan and Zhang Xiulan also swallowed a few mouthfuls and still couldn't help but relish it in their mouths. They were not greedy for meat in the past, but now, they feel that they are so greedy that they can eat a pig!

The family of four ate their mouths, wiped them clean, and then returned to where they rested.

Old Man Xu was sharing a total of twenty steamed buns with Old Man Zhou and others. Xu Dajun was sitting next to Old Man Xu, feeling very guilty as he listened.

Alas, stealing food or something is really a sinful thing.

Grandma loves him the most. He has food and drink, but he can't feed them.

Xu Chunshan and Zhang Xiulan ate something secretly, and it was meat. They sat there obediently, not even daring to open their mouths, for fear of being smelled of meat.

Fortunately, no one had the energy to talk. They didn't speak and just sat there in a daze, which didn't matter.

Xu Yinyin did the same. She picked up a small piece of mud and played with it in her hands, but she felt Xu Wuya next to her secretly peeking at her.

One glance, another glance.

Xu Yinyin turned her head and met her eyes again.

Xu Wuya was startled and quickly retracted her neck.

Xu Yinyin felt strange, so she came closer and said, "Wuya, why are you peeking at me?"

"No..." Xu Wuya shook his head quickly and shrank his neck.

But that little expression doesn't look like it's nothing.

There's just something wrong.

Xu Yinyin could tell at a glance.

Although she was confused, Xu Wuya obviously didn't know what to say, so she could only look away.

After this incident, she no longer felt Xu Wuya peeking at her secretly.

Xu Yinyin didn't take it to heart anymore.

Children of this age have a lot of thoughts on their minds, and their guesses may change from time to time, so it’s impossible to guess accurately.

Old man Xu and old man Zhou have already put together the twenty steamed buns, just like yesterday, divide them into large portions first, with an average of three for each family, and then continue to share them among themselves.

With a sense of guilt in his heart, Xu Dajun ate the canned meat, felt energetic, and listened to all directions. At this moment, he happened to hear the source of water, and he shouted out happily.

Old Man Xu, who was about to ask Zheng to share the steamed buns with others, was startled, while Old Man Zhou and others were also very happy.

"Mukuro! Where is the water?"

There is a small stream winding under the hillside on the back side of the road.

There was no gurgling stream or rushing water, but there was some water in a few pools in the ditches, large pools and small pools. The water was not cool either, and was a little yellowish.

But this is enough to make everyone happy. There is no need to dig holes, and water can be used.

"This is really good! Just as I was thinking about it, I brought some water for us to drink!"

"It's just right, the steamed buns are boiled with water, and one person can drink a big bowl! It's so good!"

"..."

At that moment, Old Man Xu shouted and made arrangements, those who fetched water and those who gathered firewood.

Old man Deng and his children and grandchildren also spontaneously went to find bamboo to chop.

Without Xu Dajun's arrangement, everyone made a water filtering device to filter the water from the stream before using it.

I set up two pots and boiled water. When the water boiled, I tore the steamed buns into pieces and threw them into the pot to cook together. Then I added some salt.

There were steamed buns cooking in the pot, and there was no meat, but it smelled particularly fragrant. A group of children gathered around the pot, like candles, unable to wave them away. If there was saliva flowing out of their mouths, the saliva would fall into the pot.

inside.

Xu Yinyin glanced at Xu Wuya, who was sitting motionless next to her, "Wuya, why don't you go over?"

The Zhang family, the Zheng family, the Shi family, and several little girls were all gathered around the pot.

Xu Wuya shook his head and said nothing.

This girl's temperament is too dull.

Xu Yinyin sniffed and smelled the hot aroma of the steamed buns in the pot. She almost drooled. She was not full three times a day and had not eaten anything. Even the steamed buns smelled like meat.

.

well.

[Attention, host! Collectable creatures found!]

The mechanical sound that had been silent in her mind for a long time suddenly sounded, which startled Xu Yinyin so much that she almost jumped up.

She looked around and responded to Tongzi in her mind, "Where is it?"

[Ask the host to collect a dogwood tree.]

Cornus officinalis?

Xu Yinyin stood up and looked around, but couldn't see it anywhere.

Tongzi pointed the way in his mind, and Xu Yinyin followed it down the slope, then turned around the slope. In the ditch at the back of the mountain, there was a dogwood tree growing.

In this season, the fruits of the dogwood are all red. There are dots of red on the tree, each one is oval, but some are shriveled and not so plump.

Xu Yinyin checked with Tongzi, reached one on tiptoe, broke off a large branch with the fruit, and was about to let Tongzi take it away.

"There is fruit to eat."

There was a voice behind her, which made Xu Yinyin's hands tremble in fright. She turned around and saw Xu Wuya rushing up and starting to pick dogwood fruits. She wondered, "Wuya, when did you follow me?"

She didn't even notice it, she was scared to death. She almost saw a magic trick that disappeared out of thin air just now. There was no way to explain it.

It's hard for Tongzi to take away this plant in his hand.

Seeing Xu Wuya picking a handful of dogwood fruits and stuffing them into his mouth, Xu Yinyin thought for a while and said: "You can pick a lot of fruits from this tree. Wuya, run back and tell me and ask him to find someone to pick them."

This Cornus officinalis fruit can be used as medicine and can be eaten. It will not be poisonous if eaten. There are so many fruits. Although it does not have much water and the taste is sour and astringent, it can at least satisfy the stomach.

Xu Wuya stuffed her mouth full. After hearing this, she nodded, turned around and went back.

Seeing that she was gone, Xu Yinyin quickly asked Tongzi to collect the dogwood in his hand, and then broke off another branch and held it in his hand.

[Collecting~]

[Ding! Collection successful!]

Xu Yinyin opened the control panel and saw that the number in the lower left corner changed back to 2.

It's not easy.

Not long after, Xu Chunshan and Xu Dajun ran at the front, followed by people of all ages, rushing towards this direction.

"What fruit is it?"

"Is this jujube peel?" Uncle Zhang asked.

Zheng Tiechui said: "What the hell, as long as you can eat it!"

Then he rolled up his sleeves and climbed up the tree.

Now people are climbing trees, jumping up and down, and a group of people are trying to destroy this dogwood tree.

After the strong wind, not a scrap of armor remains.

After picking all the fruits from a tree, there is only one sack.

Carrying the sack back, the steamed bun soup was just coming out of the pot.

Those with bowls used bowls, and those without bowls used bamboo tubes. Everyone drank warmly.

With the pot on the stand, continue to boil the filtered water, let it boil and let it dry so that you can put it in a bamboo gourd.

After eating, a few more fires were lit, and everyone sat around the fires, keeping vigil and sleeping, and rested here tonight.
