Apocalypse Overlord is Stunned: Fleeing Famine from the Get-Go

Apocalypse overlord Yun Yiyi had just perished together with a group of high-level zombies. The next moment she opened her eyes, she had become a six-year-old chubby girl. What now?

Chapter 207 Wild Celery

"I obey your decree. Your Majesty."

"Back off."

"I'll take my leave." Several trusted ministers tiptoed out of the hall.

Nothing happened overnight.

When the sun rose again, the villagers of Yunjia Village were still on the road fleeing famine.

Yesterday, the villagers picked wild vegetables twice. Most people ate some and stored some. After all, the weather will get colder, and it will probably be harder to find wild vegetables.

The village chief was still a considerate one today. Before the sun even reached its zenith, he arranged for everyone to rest.

At noon today, Yun the Butcher and Zhang were still at home cooking and cleaning up. Led by Yun Lao Da, several children went to the mountain behind to dig wild vegetables.

Yiyi, wearing a small straw hat, walked in front, with Xie Zirui following closely behind.

The three Yun brothers walked behind with baskets on their backs.

Yun Yiyi climbed the mountain for a while and saw many women from Yunjia Village picking wild vegetables with their children in the woods.

"Yiyi, shall we pick wild vegetables here?" Brother Yun looked at the bitter vegetables on the ground and wanted to stop digging.

Yun Yiyi looked at the few kinds of wild vegetables on the ground and waved her hand, "Brother, let's go further into the mountains. There are too many people digging wild vegetables here."

As soon as Yun Yiyi finished speaking, Brother Yun turned around and looked at the many figures in the woods. He decisively quickened his pace.

Yun Yiyi led the way in front, but she didn't walk in a straight line. She would change direction from time to time.

Yun Yiyi squatted down and felt the soil. It was damp. She determined the direction and led everyone south toward the woods.

Third Brother Yun stuck his head out and said, "Yiyi, aren't we going up the mountain?"

"Third brother, let's not climb up the mountain and walk in the direction we are now." Yun Yiyi said without turning her head.

"Okay. I'll listen to you. Yiyi, do we have to go far?"

Yun Yiyi raised her head and looked forward. "Third brother, we'll be there in just a little while."

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After nearly an hour of climbing, everyone was exhausted. Fortunately, they were almost there.

Yun Yiyi led everyone and continued walking for more than ten minutes before stopping.

"Brothers, this is it."

They also stopped when they saw Brother Yun, who was walking with his head down, behind them.

Yun Yiyi took a closer look and found that this was a depression. There were very few trees in the depression, but the tall trees around it blocked a lot of sunlight, making the depression relatively humid.

The depression was full of weeds and wild vegetables.

"Wow, there are so many wild vegetables in this place."

"Yes, I found a lot of wild celery."

"I found a lot of shepherd's purse. They were big and tender."

"Don't just stand there stupidly, start digging wild vegetables." Brother Yun was the first to put down the basket and squat down to dig wild vegetables.

After hearing what Brother Yun said, everyone started digging wild vegetables. The wild vegetables here are large in size and do not get old due to lack of sunlight.

Wild vegetables like these taste great whether you eat them now or save them for later.

Yun Yiyi walked around the depression. Great, no need to move. The wild vegetables here could fill the basket.

Yun Yiyi didn't want to dig wild vegetables, so she put down her shovel and started digging at the clumps of wild celery. The wild celery was green and full of celery flavor.

Yun Yiyi loves eating wild celery. It tastes similar to homegrown celery. It's delicious in stir-fries, cold dishes, dumplings, or even kimchi.

Yun Yiyi picked wild celery with her hands. The wild celery was not old and was easy to pick. Yun Yiyi picked half a basket in a short while.

Yun Yiyi bent down and smelled the wild celery. It smelled so good. Seeing that there was still a lot of wild celery left, Yun Yiyi became more motivated. She bent down and concentrated on picking the wild celery.

Xie Zirui, who was beside him, was digging up some shepherd's purse with a small shovel, feeling a bit annoyed. So, he put down the shovel and imitated Yun Yiyi in picking wild celery.

Wild celery grows large and takes up a lot of space. Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui quickly filled a basket. Yun Yiyi deliberately pushed down the basket to fit more.

The three Yun brothers were also quite quick at digging wild vegetables. This time, it looked like everyone's baskets were half full.

The wild celery that Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui specially picked soon filled up another basket.

"Brother, the baskets are full now, let's go back." Yun Yiyi was very happy looking at the three big baskets of wild vegetables.

Brother Yun was reluctant to look at the remaining small piece of wild celery, "Yiyi, I see there is still a lot of wild celery here, let's pick it all."

Yun Yiyi turned around and looked at Brother Yun helplessly, "Okay, but we don't have a basket to put it in."

Second Brother Yun immediately joined in, "Yiyi, I'll go find some strong vines and tie them into bundles and carry them down the mountain."

Third Brother Yun also looked like he had entered a mountain of treasures and didn't want to return empty-handed. "Yiyi, don't worry, I, the eldest brother, and the second brother will carry it together, so we can definitely get it."

Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui looked at each other in silence. Forget it, just pick them all. If they can’t finish them, they can pickle them into kimchi. It can’t be wasted.

Brother Yun was in charge of finding strong vines, while the others went about plucking the wild celery. Strength lies in numbers, and after more than twenty minutes, all the wild celery was gathered and laid out on the ground.

The three Yun brothers were busy tying the wild celery into bundles.

Yun Yiyi took Xie Zirui to pick wild fruits not far away.

Yun Yiyi had just smelled a sweet scent. When the two of them went to look for it, they discovered it was a few tall raspberry bushes.

Yun Yiyi took a quick look and saw that there were quite a few fully ripe raspberries on the tree. The color of the fruit had changed from bright red to a mature black.

Yun Yiyi picked two raspberries, ate one herself, and stuffed the other one into Xie Zirui's mouth. "Brother Zirui, these are raspberries. Try them. They're delicious."

Xie Zirui took the raspberry and put it in his mouth, "Yiyi, so sweet and delicious."

"Brother Zirui, let's pick them quickly and take them home to eat slowly. But be careful when picking them, there are thorns."

Xie Zirui nodded and picked raspberries with Yun Yiyi.

Yun Yiyi had just come here empty-handed, but she quickly picked a handful of raspberries. "Brother Zirui, can you help me hold some?" Yun Yiyi put all the raspberries in her hand into Xie Zirui's.

She looked around and found a plant with very large leaves. She picked more than ten large leaves, stacked them together, and finally rolled them into a tube.

Yun Yiyi gestured to Xie Zirui, "Brother Zirui, put all the raspberries in."

Xie Zirui looked at the tube made of large leaves with great curiosity. "Yiyi, it turns out that leaves can hold things."

Yun Yiyi said calmly, "Brother Zirui, this isn't that difficult. As long as you're willing to use your brain, you won't starve to death in such a vast mountain."
