Being fooled by fierce beasts to travel through the beginning is fleeing famine

Chapter 22 On the Road
After everything is installed and the car is set up, everyone is ready to go on the road.

Except for Liu Sanli who was sitting in the car in front, everyone else walked beside him.

Liu Sanli was embarrassed not to do anything, but he happened to be able to drive a car, so he didn't need his legs anyway, as long as they were laid flat.

The shaft is relatively wide, and there is a wooden plank across the front, just enough to put your legs on it, and a thick straw mat under it, everything is tied up at the back, and you can lean on it, so sitting there is also considered comfortable.

In this way, it is easy for everyone, except for the donkey, of course.

I slept all night last night and ate enough in the morning. Everyone was in good spirits, so I walked for thirty or forty miles in one breath before stopping.

Although the mountain road here is uneven, it is still wide.So walking is not very strenuous.

Moreover, there are not too many high mountains here, they are not steep, and the forests are not very dense, so it is considered safe.

Until noon, they walked to a relatively flat place, found an open space and stopped, preparing to light a fire and cook here.

Before lighting the fire, Yang Dashan said: "Don't start the fire first, Shuanzhu and I will go to the top of the nearby mountain to have a look. Don't look back when the cooking smoke rises to expose our position."

Qingyan stopped them and said, "Just let Chouchou go. It climbed to the tallest tree nearby, so it can see farther."

Their current location is halfway up a mountain. The view is not good in places that are too low-lying, and the places that are too high are easy to be exposed, so this location is actually the best.

Let Chou Chou go, one is that it climbs trees quickly, and the other is that its eyesight is farther away, and it can see two or three miles around.

It doesn't matter if there are people in places that are too far away to see.

After all, they didn't set fire to the mountain, or deliberately created smoke. Even if the smoke rose, it would soon dissipate. If you were far away, you couldn't see it at all.

When Chou Chou came back, they were still waiting and didn't take out the things, so as to save the trouble of putting them back in if necessary.

Seeing Chou Chou shaking his head, he started to take it out.

They built two earthen stoves with broken stones on the ground, set up pots and filled them with water.

He also took out the straw woven fan, thinking that someone would use a fan to scatter the smoke if it didn't work out, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

Everything else in this place is good, flat and spacious with shade, the only drawback is that there is no water source.

There is no way, their side is northwest, and there is not much water in the first place. If there is a river ditch where they used to live, four or five villages would not be built in such a small area, because water is more rare in other places.

Fortunately, before they left, they filled the empty crocks and wooden barrels with water, and covered them with lids and tied them tightly. Just like that, a lot was spilled during the bumpy journey.

It is enough to eat and drink, don't think about washing.

Qingyan looked at what was sprinkled and there was only half a bucket of water left, thinking that water was also a problem.

There is water in Chou Chou's space. It not only collects a lot of fragrant spiritual spring water, but also stores a lot of drinks (although it has become ordinary water).

That's right, a drink.

This guy is greedy, and often secretly hides the drinks her parents bought back in his own space.

Later, when my mother found out about it, she bought a batch for it and asked it to put it away and drink it.

There are also cans made of fruits in the Xiangxiang space, all of which are machines brought back by my father. I bought glass bottles and made them myself in the space.

There are no additives, and spiritual spring water is added, not to mention the taste. I plan to keep it for the family to eat, but this guy took half of it, and there are hundreds of bottles!
The problem is that in its space, the spirit spring water is completely useless, even if it is sealed in a can.

Chouchou and Xiangxiang are indeed old enemies, and the mutual generation and mutual restraint are really amazing.

The premise now is that these cannot be taken outside, at least those glass bottles and plastic buckets cannot be explained.

Fortunately, Chouchou also brought back a piece of good news. It sent a voice transmission to Qingyan: "When I was watching from the tree just now, there should be a water source in the distance in the direction we are going, but I don't know if the water is not clean. Drink, it’s too far away to see clearly, just see a piece of reflection.”

Qingyan was delighted when she heard that, as long as she had it, it was better than no supplies along the way.

The men collected firewood and the women cooked. Everyone worked together. Lan Hua and Qing Yan had nothing to do, so they just watched from the side.

Yang Dashan got some grass from the side and fed it to the donkey. Fortunately, there is no shortage of such things in summer.

It is better to let go of the donkey and let him eat by himself, but Liu Sanli is still sitting on the cart, and there are a lot of things on the cart. If the donkey is to be unloaded, there must be a shelf under the shaft of the cart. Things probably have to fall.

The trees on both sides are straight, there are no crooked trees or huge stones.I can only continue to stand on the donkey.

To be honest, it will take a while for a dozen people to eat.

The main reason is that they don't have stone mills to grind noodles, otherwise they can make dry food in advance, which will save a lot of trouble.

It's just that it's hot, so you can make enough for a day, and it will spoil if you don't finish it.

But now I can only make do with it, cooking some oatmeal is mushy.

The firewood they picked up was not dry, and it didn't look easy to burn.

Because of the summer, everywhere is lush green, so I finally picked up a few dead branches, and it was still a little damp.

Even if it is on the side of the road or in the shade of trees, there is still a lot of water vapor on the ground.

Everyone managed to light the fire, but it burst into smoke.

Liu Sanli couldn't help but said: "It's better to put a piece of coal in it, put the firewood aside and roast it for a while, and it will be ready to burn."

Yang Dashan's family slapped their hands and said: "Really, why did we forget that there are coal stones! One piece is probably enough for cooking, and we can still use the firewood at night when the firewood is dry."

After the iron was struck, there was still a lot of coal left, which could be used for cooking.

Not to mention the small smoke, it still burns for a long time. When you leave, just extinguish it and bury it with soil.

Moreover, the weight of the donkey cart can be reduced a little. Anyway, they will only get hotter and hotter all the way south, so they can burn it to keep warm in winter.

For them, it is better to use it now. If they encounter any towns and are seen by others, it will be dangerous. After all, civilians cannot have this thing, and they must report it.

Although Liu Sanli used to work in the coal mines, but now there are no people in the coal mines, it is useless to say it, and the world is so chaotic now, it doesn't matter if they are low-level people, they will just charge you a crime , It is estimated that all the household belongings have been taken in.

That is, everyone may be arrested, and they may not be able to escape unscathed...
