A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

Chapter 26

Of course, there is one more important thing, that is, there are only about two taels of jerky left for the two of them.

The energy value on her body can be exchanged for a catty of jerky, but the source of these jerky must also be considered.

She wouldn't foolishly take things out in front of Li Xiuyuan just because he was a child, she still wanted to live a few more years, there are quite a few unconscionable white-eyed wolves, it's not impossible to do such a miraculous thing that can be called weird, But you can't do it all the time.

Besides, isn't it better to give yourself a plausible reason than to do unreasonable things in front of people?

Yes, Bai Xia's plan is very simple.

Lijia Village can no longer stay, they have to prepare to flee.

But fleeing famine is easy to say, but difficult to do.

There is no food, no drink, and we have to walk day and night. No one knows the scope of this drought and where we will end up.

Even if they have a place to go, if they are away from the land where their household registration is located, they will be refugees. If they encounter officials from the imperial court, they will not be sure whether they will die or live.

After traveling thousands of miles to the place, he was driven back to his hometown by the court officials. In the end, he was still inseparable from death.

So it is necessary to prepare more food and drink.

On the way to escape, no one can guarantee that there will be something to eat and drink.

Bai Xia stayed up thinking wildly until night, and in the afternoon he went to the bamboo grove secretly, trying to cut two bamboos to weave a straw hat, but found that all the bamboos were dead, so the straw hat was useless.

At night, Bai Xia led Li Xiuyuan by the hand, both of them had things on their backs.

Not much, just six pieces of clothes, one bamboo tube, two bowls, one pot and two taels of dried meat, and the remaining three bamboo tubes were pretended to be thrown away by Bai Xia, but they were actually transformed in the transformation pool and returned to her Contributed 3 energy points, now she has 94 energy points.

It can be exchanged for almost a catty and a half of jerky.

But she really wants to eat.

Find a way to get some food and let the transformation pool learn.

The two of Bai Xia walked cautiously. When she went down the mountain a while ago, she could still hear a dog barking from the dog owner's house, but today when the two of them came down, the village was completely silent, there was no sound at all. .

People who didn't know came and thought it was a dead village.

"Sanya, have everyone in the village disappeared?"

Li Xiuyuan huddled beside Bai Xia, looking at the village ahead.

There was only a bit of moonlight in the sky, and in fact, they couldn't see clearly at all, they could only see a piece of blackness, but at this moment, Lijia Village was indeed terribly quiet.

"Do not talk"

Bai Xia held his head and led him forward. Finally, after being away for several days, the two of them returned home.

It's just that the Li family at this moment has long been in ruins.

Bai Xia led Li Xiuyuan into the house, let go of his hand and walked towards the kitchen.

Li Xiuyuan wanted to follow, but seemed to have thought of something, and walked towards the house where Mrs. Lin lived before in the dark.

He squatted down, groping in the dark.

Bai Xia was also very busy, and soon found the burnt iron pot in the kitchen. She was ecstatic, and hurriedly put it into the transformation pool. The transformation pool successfully learned, and its energy value increased by 466.

Bai Xia took out the iron pot again.

Well, it's still a broken iron pot.

She was a little disappointed, she thought she could get a good iron pot, who knew that the transformation pool was calculated so finely.

Putting the iron pot away again, she continued to look for things, but unfortunately, the kitchen knife, sickle, and hoe she thought were still at home were all gone.

It couldn't have been burned.

I'm afraid that after the fire was extinguished, someone from the village came to patronize and took away all the valuable things.

Bai Xia felt a little regretful.

But it was not without speculation before.

She turned her head to look at Li Xiuyuan, and saw that he was burying his body and rummaging for something in Lin's house. She didn't bother her, but pretended to dig soil in the kitchen, but actually took it from the transformation pool. Two catties of meat were dried and placed in the dug earth pit.

"Brother Yuan, let's go"

She picked up the jerky with joy on her face, which was wrapped in a dark oilcloth.

Hearing her voice, Li Xiuyuan quickly hid his hands behind his back, and wiped his body vigorously with the other hand, making the dirty clothes even blacker.

"Sanya, what are you holding in your hand?"

Because the weather was too dark, Bai Xia didn't notice Li Xiuyuan's little action, but raised the burden in his hand, and said a little cheerfully: "Dried meat, I hid it before."

"Then do we have something to eat again?"

Since the two of them had a meal when they woke up in the morning, neither of them had eaten until the evening.

After all, there were only two taels of jerky left at that time.

"Yes, come on, eat quickly, we will be on our way after eating"

Bai Xia took out the two taels of jerky from before, divided one tael per person, and didn't care how black his hands were, he wiped his body and started to eat.

The midsummer night is different from the croaking of insects and frogs in previous years, but a silence, and there is a slight chewing sound in the dark night.

If anyone passes by here, they will be shocked.

Two small shadows squatting in the burnt ruins of the house, and the sound of gnawing things, just need to turn a theater, it is a horror show.

After eating, the two walked towards the town.

"Sanya, do you know the way to the town?"

"do not recognize"

"Then how do you know we're going to town?"

"I know the way to Linjiacun"

"Grandpa's house?"

"Well, I remember the way from Linjiacun to the town, so let's go to Linjiacun first, and then go to the town"

Bai Xia had planned a long time ago. The two of them went to the town first. One was to see if they could get money and food so that her transformation pool could learn about it. In which direction did the businessman who left Lin's go.

Although this will take a long way, it can't be helped.

Neither Bai Xia nor Li Xiuyuan had ever been to the town, so neither of them knew the way from Lijia Village to the town.

Bai Xia also went to Lin's Village that day, and followed Lin Cuilan to the town only once, so she had to choose this stupid way to go to the town, otherwise she would not be able to reach the town, but would end up in a place she was not familiar with. That's bad.

Of course, she had this plan and another purpose.

Linjia Village is bigger than Lijia Village. There are [-] or [-] households in a village, which is a full half more than the [-] or [-] households in Lijia Village.

As a result, Linjiacun has more wells than Lijiacun.

She was also looking forward to it, to see if she could fetch some water.

He stretched out his hand and shook the bamboo tube on his waist, there was only a little water.

Bai Xia frowned.

The two arrived at Lin's Village at night, and it was still a long time before dawn. They brought Li Xiuyuan to Lin's natal family. Bai Xia took him to climb over the wall and hid him in the corner of the yard.

"Shh, brother Yuan, you stay here obediently, I'll go to the well in the village to see"

Li Xiuyuan nodded obediently, hugged her knees with both hands, and shrank the whole baby into the shadows.

Seeing him like this, Bai Xia felt relieved, turned around and flipped out lightly.
