Chapter 58 Fried Chestnuts

Jin Yan took her to find clean sand while explaining to her, "Stir-fried chestnuts are of course not just a little sand, we are looking for the ones with larger grains, and the taste will be better after frying. Wait a moment Just try it and you'll know."

She looked around, her eyes frantically flashing information about the things around her, and she quickly found what she wanted.

After returning, I took out the pot again and searched in my mind how to fry chestnuts.

During this period, Jin Jiaojiao was not idle, she took a small basket and a hoe to look for things around.

Jin Yan gathered around the pot, frying the sand first, and then poured the chestnuts in. It is best to cut a slit for each chestnut, so that it is easy to cook, and it is easy to peel when eating.

It doesn't take too long to fry chestnuts, it can be out of the pot in about 10 minutes, and the whole seven or eight catties of chestnuts will be shiny after frying.

She peeled one casually and tasted it, "Well, although it is small in size, it tastes good."

After finishing all this, the last beggar chicken in the fire was healed. She looked around and called Jin Jiaojiao who was not far away to come back for dinner.

"What did you dig when you ran out just now?"

Jin Jiaojiao pulled the basket over, "There was nothing on the mountain, and I didn't recognize many, so I picked up some chestnuts."

Jin Yan took a look, and sure enough, he picked up half of the basket again.

"Let's keep these chestnuts for future cooking. Try my fried chestnuts."

Jin Jiaojiao took one casually, peeled it open and put it in his mouth, "Wow, this chestnut is delicious!"

Jin Yan suddenly smiled, it was just fried with sand, how delicious it would be without adding anything.

It would be great if there was sugar. Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar are better than this.

The two of them ate something casually and then went up the mountain to look for something. The hills near here are small, and they climbed to the top of the mountain after walking two steps.

There are really very few foods that can be found, and the only edible thing in the mountains and plains is the chestnut just now.

But Jin Yan was not discouraged, and took Jin Jiaojiao along the way to recognize plants, and taught her some biased knowledge.

During this period of getting along, she saw Jin Jiaojiao's cleverness.

It may be that she was unlucky when she was a child, and she was only seven years old and could not read, but her curiosity about the outside world was an unprecedented motivation, so that this child learned things very quickly.

While teaching her, she also subtly told her what plants can cure what diseases.

Little by little, Jin Jiaojiao's little head silently memorized these things.

The two climbed to the top of the mountain, and the sky was completely dark. There were only chestnuts picked up on the road in the basket, and today's harvest was only chestnuts.

"It seems that there is nothing to eat on this mountain, let's go back."

"Ah."

Jin Yan turned around and walked down the mountain, checking the condition of the land as he walked.

Where there is a water source, the land will be a little wet, but the land around here is extremely dry, and it doesn't look like there is water.

She was a little disappointed. She didn't have such a sense of urgency in the few days when she came out of the mountain stream. She felt that with so much water in the car, she could always last to the next water source.

But who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes, the drought was so severe that the people in a radius of hundreds of miles had no water to drink.

Thinking about it, suddenly there was a sound of knives and guns rubbing against each other from a distance, she hurriedly looked over and listened carefully.

"You untouchables, how dare you rebel!"

An army happened to be flanked by people. There were many people in this army. There were dozens of soldiers and hundreds of prisoners.

And this distress, it was the prisoners who were escorted rioted.

Jin Yan stayed far away because he was not afraid of being affected, but he didn't dare to let Jin Jiaojiao stay here, and immediately asked her to go back to the carriage, while he went to see the situation.

This team must not be the one escorting Jin Jiaojiao.

"We are not prisoners, why do you detain us!"

"That is, it is inevitable that we are all fleeing everywhere. Why do you arrest us and where are you going to take us!"

The voices of righteous indignation in the crowd came one after another. It turned out that these people were all arrested when they were fleeing.

They are all starving people who are about to die, how could they be able to withstand these soldiers on horseback, they were forced to follow along.

But they didn't commit a crime, so why should they be detained like this!

Those officers and soldiers immediately became angry, they were impersonal at all, and directly drew their swords at each other, "Since you are not willing to be obedient, then we have no choice but to execute you on the spot!"

In the next second, these people drew their knives and charged at the people, scaring the crowd to run around.

She frowned when she saw it, what kind of army is this, it's so arrogant.

These are all ordinary people, so they will be killed if they say they are killed?
She hid in the nearby woods, the sound of fighting was all around her ears.

In an instant, the people present were running and beating, many of them were cut down by those soldiers, and there was blood everywhere.

There were cries all over the mountains and plains, which sounded extremely ear-piercing.

She couldn't bear it, she frowned, drew out two short knives and charged forward!

She was indeed meddling in her actions this time, but there was no reason for so many innocent people to be killed by them.

The common people in the crowd were still running at first, but they couldn't outrun these fed and well-fed soldiers at all, and they were chased after a short while.

A woman ran away with her child, and suddenly the child in her hand was pulled back. She turned her head quickly, and immediately saw that her child had been picked up and was about to be stabbed to death.

She yelled in horror, "No! Please don't kill my son!"

But the man didn't listen at all, and stabbed with a big knife.

"Hey!"

When the woman saw the red knife, her eyes widened in fright, she covered her mouth and cried out, "Ah!"

Jin Yan put her right hand against the man's neck, grabbed the child back with her left hand, and kicked him out with her kick.

"Hey, stop barking and see if this is your son."

The woman immediately came back to her senses, and took the child to look around, "Thank you, the heroine, for saving me!"

Jin Yan's right hand was a little stiff, and no one saw her trembling arm in the dark night, "Hurry up and take the child away."

After she finished speaking, she ran to rescue other people. She didn't dare to kill anyone, but just restrained them with a short knife, and then used all her strength to touch the acupuncture points of them, making them numb for a few hours.

But there are quite a few of these people, and it's not enough to just look at her alone.

Jin Yan fought all the way up, saving many people, and those who were saved hurriedly fled around.

She looked at the road that was becoming more and more empty, she put her hand away and was about to leave, when suddenly a sharp sword shot over from a distance!

There was a cold behind her, and she jumped to dodge quickly, and when she looked back, she was actually the leader of the army.

Maybe he discovered her early, so he has been targeting her now.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Three shots with one arrow!
Jin Yan's nerves collapsed, and she ran around, one by one jumped onto a cart, her eyes flicked everywhere, and suddenly she focused on the person lying on the cart.

At that moment, it was as if something rushed out of her mind!
