The weather now is very hot except at noon when the sun is strong. The temperature has dropped in the morning and evening.

Recently, it can be clearly seen that the grass and leaves on the mountain are turning yellow day by day.

Yun Yiyi looked at the mountain in front of her and felt urgently that winter was almost over.

Zhang hadn't been up the mountain much lately, so he probably didn't realize it. But Yun the Butcher had been up the mountain every day recently, so he must have sensed the tense atmosphere.

Yun Yiyi knew that her power was still too weak and she could not change the current situation. Therefore, she could only try her best to help her family store more food for the winter.

Especially as the day when the bandits from Qingfeng Village came down the mountain got closer, Yun Yiyi felt more and more powerless.

She didn't know where the turning point for Yunjia Village to escape this disaster was. She seemed to be unable to do anything at the moment.

We can only wait and see if there will be any changes. Then we can help the people in Yunjia Village find a glimmer of hope in the cracks.

Now is like before the storm, everything is unknown.

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore," Yun Yiyi shook her head. "Let's think about where to find food this afternoon. That's more important."

"Yiyi, what are you thinking about? I've called you several times, but you didn't say anything?"

Suddenly, the roaring voice of Third Brother Yun rang in my ears.

"Third brother, what did you say? I was distracted just now and didn't hear it?"

"I just said, Yiyi, we're almost there. Are you going to separate from Big Brother and me once we get there?"

"Yes, Third Brother. Time is of the essence. You and Big Brother go pick some wild celery first. I'll walk up the stream to see if I can find anything edible."

"Well, you have a point."

The three of them chatted and soon arrived at the mountain stream.

"Yiyi, the third brother and I are going to pick wild celery. Be careful. If you encounter any danger, call us loudly."

Brother Yun gave worried instructions.

"Brother, Brother Three, don't worry. I'm very skilled."

While Yun Yiyi and other elder brothers Yun and third brother Yun were walking down the mountain stream, she also walked up the mountain stream.

The higher we go, the more lush the weeds grow on both sides of the stream, and the emerald green wild celery grows in patches.

It seems we can come here tomorrow morning. This mountain stream is a really nice place.

Yun Yiyi walked carefully on the stones and used a stick to clear away the weeds that blocked the way ahead.

After walking upwards for about half an hour, Yun Yiyi found that she had not yet reached the source of the stream.

She looked around and saw that woods were beginning to appear on both sides of the stream. Standing here, she could see that the trees in the woods were very tall.

Yun Yiyi took a short rest for a few minutes and continued to climb for a while. The scenery around her was similar to before.

Yun Yiyi looked up at the mountain above her head. It was very high and it would probably take a long time to climb up.

Forget it, let’s go for a walk in the woods next to us.

Yun Yiyi carried a stick and walked towards the woods on the right side of the stream.

As soon as she entered the woods, Yun Yiyi felt the air was a little chilly. Occasionally, a gust of wind blew over her, and she actually felt a little cold.

Thinking of this, she walked towards the depths of the woods. Of course, she did not climb up, but wandered around at the same height in the woods.

She looked up at the treetops. Many of the tall trees had bird nests on them. She figured if she climbed a tree, she might be able to harvest some eggs.

However, Yun Yiyi felt it was not appropriate to waste time climbing trees and only harvest a small number of bird eggs.

So she went around the tree-climbing vines and continued walking through the woods.

In the woods, apart from the chirping of birds, it was very quiet. Yun Yiyi could even hear the sound of her feet stepping on the leaves.

After she estimated that she had been walking for almost half an hour, she finally noticed a large patch of sunlight falling on the ground in an open space not far ahead.

It seems that they are about to get out of the woods. Thinking of this, Yun Yiyi quickened her pace.

Sure enough, when she stood in the sunlight, she found herself out of the woods.

She looked forward and saw a large field of weeds, thorns, and a few small trees here and there.

She tilted her head and looked to her left, and as expected, there was a large forest.

She looked to the right again and saw stretches of woods running down the mountain.

In other words, the only area in front of her was not a forest.

Of course, Yun Yiyi also found that she had arrived at the top of a hill.

So she used a stick to push away the weeds, avoid the thorns, and carefully explore the danger.

However, she still secretly found a target for herself, which was a few trees close together about a mile away.

It was far away and Yun Yiyi couldn't see clearly, so she wasn't sure what kind of trees they were.

But at least I have a goal. It's much better than wandering around aimlessly.

There's a saying in the mountains: "Looking at the mountain and running will kill the horse." Sometimes, a place that seems very close to you may actually take a long time to reach.

This also applies to Yun Yiyi. She estimated that the distance was only about a mile.

However, by the time she could really see the trees clearly, she found she had been walking for almost an hour.

She estimated that she had walked several miles.

Unexpectedly, I also made mistakes in my estimation. Yun Yiyi smiled bitterly.

Then she became happy, because she saw that the tree closest to her was a persimmon tree full of golden persimmons.

There is also a golden tree behind, which should also be a persimmon tree.

However, the other trees are not very clear.

Yun Yiyi felt full of strength. She picked up the stick and rushed forward while walking and running.

Ten minutes later, she rushed to the persimmon tree she had seen before.

She raised her head and looked carefully.

This persimmon tree is about six or seven meters tall, with a thick trunk. Its canopy is also quite large, and its branches are laden with oval-shaped persimmons.

The golden persimmons hanging on the trees look like beautiful little lanterns, which are very beautiful.

Yun Yiyi grabbed the branch and picked a persimmon.

The whole persimmon is golden yellow and oval in shape, and the size of the persimmon is about the same as Yun Yiyi's palm.

She squeezed the persimmon with her hands. It was very hard. It seemed to be a variety that could be stored for a long time.

The difference between the round persimmons Yun Yiyi found last time and the ones she found last time was that many of them were overripe.

The oval-shaped persimmons that Yun Yiyi discovered this time were basically golden yellow all over the tree.

Yun Yiyi only found a very small number of overripe persimmons on the top of the tree.

Haha, that’s great, I’m rich again today.
