Supernatural little lady

Chapter 65
Not long after, Rong Qiuran came back with a few men, and each of them hugged a handful of things that looked like leaves.

"These are edible," Rong Qiuran took a piece and put it in his mouth. "Let's eat some first to cushion our stomachs. If it doesn't rain anymore, the floods will probably recede at night. Let's go down the mountain and see if there is anything we can do. The imperial court should also send relief food."

When everyone heard this, hope was ignited in their hearts. The floods would recede soon and they could go home. As long as they stayed alive, there was nothing to worry about. They could always live their lives.

By the time Guan Qing woke up, it was already noon.

"Eat some," Jinniang placed the leaves in front of Guan Qing.

Guan Qing looked at Jinniang, then at the others, and saw that everyone was eating this kind of leaves.

It should be edible, right?
Guan Qing swallowed her saliva. She had been hungry for a long time, but she never clamored for food. But if she didn't clamor, it didn't mean she wasn't hungry. Now she felt that she couldn't even feel her hunger. , I was so hungry that I couldn’t even feel hungry anymore.

However, she still took the leaf from Jin Niang's hand, put it in her mouth and bit it. She was not a silkworm, so she wanted to eat this.

The taste is bitter, astringent, and not delicious, but it seems to get over it.

There are no pots or stoves here, so it would be nice to have something to eat.

She ate five leaves in a row, but she couldn't eat anymore. Not long after, the man came back and brought a lot of these leaves. I thought, if the flood does not recede, they will keep eating this kind of leaves. born.

It was Dr. Rong who found it. Jinniang sighed. Fortunately, there is Dr. Rong, otherwise, how many people in our village would die here?

Others also followed suit.

When Guan Qing heard that Rong Qiuran had brought them, she took a few more slices and started eating them. There was nothing wrong with eating them anyway, so as not to starve to death. She rested on Jin Niang's lap and listened. The men talked about what was going on outside, saying that the floods were beginning to recede. If they continued to recede at night, they would have to wait another night and they would be able to go home without any major problems.

However, after returning home, Guan Qing turned the leaves in his hand and said, "Home, do they still have a home to go back to? I'm afraid the house will be washed away."

She closed her eyes and turned over, still holding the leaf tightly in her hand. She could do nothing now but wait. Rong Qiuran couldn't care about her. He still had to find a way to find her. Bring something to satisfy their hunger so that they can stay here for another night without starving to death.

From morning to sunset, I don't know how many days passed. Guan Qing looked at the green leaf in his hand, then put it in his mouth and took a bite.

There were still voices of villagers talking outside. It was because the flood had receded and they were safe. From time to time, there were some tinkling sounds heard in the ears. It was women cutting up edible food that had not been found in the mountains. The water had been sinking for a long time. , you can still drink it reluctantly.

Guan Qing really doesn't care too much about these.

Dirty water, dirty clothes, whatever food she wants, she can eat and drink.

She came from that terrible place and had never eaten anything except human flesh. In fact, thinking about those days, she couldn't help but want to eat human flesh at first. When she was so hungry that she even Fighting zombies for human flesh.

However, in the end, it was her shred of understanding and human morality that prevented her from doing such a thing.

So, so far, she still doesn't know what human flesh tastes like, and she doesn't want to know in this life.

She turned around and hugged the quilt in her arms. Jin Niang also went to help. Only the children and the old people were half sitting and half lying, waiting for something to eat.

I don’t know where I found the pot. It was broken. The water was scooped from the river and was drinkable.

What was cooking in the pot were the leaves from the morning, and some bark and roots.

There was no bowl, so everyone drank from what they could make do with. Jin Niang found a broken bowl, scooped out a bowl of wild vegetable porridge and brought it over. In fact, it was called wild vegetable porridge, and there was no rice or noodles in it. There are only a few pieces of rice that are so cooked that the color cannot be seen clearly, and some turf trees and the like.

Jin Niang blew the contents in the bowl to cool down and placed it near Guan Qing's mouth.

Guan Qing held the bowl with his little hands and took a sip.

It tasted weird and a bit unpleasant, but she could swallow it. After drinking less than half a bowl, she felt her stomach was full. In fact, it was because she couldn't drink it anymore. Looking at other people, they also felt that It is for the elderly and children at home to drink, but the children cry endlessly and say it is not good to drink. There is no one as obedient as Guan Qing. He eats and drinks whatever Jin Niang gives him. What?
However, the more good and obedient she was, the more uncomfortable Jin Niang felt.

Her child.She has never suffered this crime since she was born. She has been wronged in every way since she was a child. She used to drink milk every day, and she couldn't sleep if she didn't drink it. Sometimes she forgot, little girl I will also remember to ask for a drink for her.

And it was only now that she understood that her girl was so sensible.

Since arriving on the mountain, there has never been any mention of going home or eating or drinking.

She just hopes to go home early tomorrow. Although there may be nothing left at home, it will always be their home.

Another night passed like this, and Guan Qing still didn't sleep well. She got up several times at night. When she saw someone keeping watch outside, she lay down and came back. As long as someone kept watch, she was just afraid. If they don't pay attention, the flood will rise, and everything they have will be washed away.

She closed her eyes and hugged the quilt tightly. When she couldn't sleep, she put her consciousness into the space. She wanted to see how the space was now. Except for the position occupied by the tree, the rest was still a piece of space. There was a vast ocean, and she didn't know how space divided it. She knew it would take a long time for space to integrate all the water. She just hoped that there would be no floods outside.

The capacity of the space seems to be unable to hold too much water, and if she comes again, she is afraid that the space will be exhausted.

Drowsily, she hugged the quilt and fell asleep. When she got up, it seemed as if she was moving. She rubbed her eyes, and light fell on Ye's eyes, which was uncomfortable and dazzling. Opening his eyes, he first looked up and saw a sun with extremely strong rays of light hanging above his head.

The sun was out, and when she covered her eyes with her hands, she looked forward and saw that she was being hugged by Rong Qiuran.

And when she rolled her eyes again, she realized that they were now going down the mountain. The floods had all receded. Although the road down the mountain was a little muddy, the villagers were supporting each other, but they all couldn't wait to go home. go.
