[Crossdressing + Escaping Famine + Infrastructure + Farming] (Entirely Fictional) Lu Jinnian, a level 9 power-type ability user who survived in the apocalypse for three years, came to an unfamiliar...
Chapter 25 Going Home
Lu Jinnian walked with his brother and sister for an afternoon and finally found an abandoned cave.
There was some wild animal feces in it, so they quickly cleaned it out, then found some hay to spread on it and lit a fire.
This time they could rest assured. They had walked a long way, at least more than ten miles.
"Brother, I'm hungry." The youngest Lu Jinqiu looked at her eagerly.
After walking for an afternoon and not having lunch, wouldn't he be hungry at this time?
Lu Jincheng on the side said, "Go to bed first and talk about it tomorrow."
It was already late, where could they find food?
He rubbed his stomach. In fact, everyone was hungry, not just one person.
Hearing this, Lu Jinqiu lowered his head in grievance, and didn't say anything, but obediently went to lie in the haystack.
Lu Jinxin walked over and hugged him. As a sister, she also needed to take care of her brother.
Seeing this, Lu Jinnian said, "You stay here and don't leave. I'll be back soon."
"Brother!" Before she could go out, Lu Jincheng called her.
"It's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow."
The mountains are different from the village. There are many wild animals that move at night, so he was afraid that his eldest brother would be in danger.
If he really suffered danger for a meal, it would be really not worth it.
"It's okay." Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "I will pay attention and will be back in half an hour."
She was also worried about the children staying alone in the cave, but there was no other way now.
Seeing Lu Jinnian leave, Lu Jincheng pursed his lips and turned to make a fire.
The weather has turned cold and it is very cold at night. If you can't keep the fire burning, you will be woken up by the cold at night.
Lu Jinnian walked around and confirmed that there were no wild animals, so she went back with the rabbit she had killed before.
Seeing that she really brought food back, the children were very happy.
The rabbit is not big, but it can fill the stomach and won't wake up in the middle of the night. That taste is not good.
During this period of time, everyone has been accustomed to having food in their stomachs. If they go hungry again, I'm afraid they can't accept it or bear it.
Lu Jinnian roasted the rabbit and shared it with them, saying, "Go to sleep after eating. We'll stay here for the time being."
As for whether she could go back, she didn't know.
The children didn't ask much, and went to sleep obediently after eating.
In the morning, everyone went to collect firewood, and Lu Jinnian was responsible for hunting. Anyway, they had to stay here for a while at least.
Those people didn't know when they would leave, and she wouldn't go back to see them in a short time.
Those people gave her a sense of danger. Humans are not zombies, not to mention that these people can also fight.
Lu Jinnian, who has always been cautious, would not go back easily and put herself in danger.
Although it is cowardly to do so, it is also the safest way, and it will not put her younger brothers and sisters in danger. Two
days passed like this. Lu Jinqiu was young and often talked about home.
They had lived there for a long time, and it was a shack that everyone had accumulated bit by bit, so he was very worried.
Lu Jinnian also felt that the time was about right, so he thought about going back to see.
At night, while her younger brothers and sisters were asleep, she quietly left.
It would be better to go back at night. After all, with the cover of night, she could easily escape even if she was discovered. She
had the space, which was her confidence.
Without the burden of her brothers and sisters, she arrived at the shack in an hour.
Looking at the dark shack, the door was also closed.
She listened carefully and scanned again with her mental power, but found that there was no one in the shack.
What happened?
She looked around curiously. Sure enough, no one was ambushing. Did the group of people leave?
Lu Jinnian cautiously touched the fence, and then carefully checked with her mental power. There was indeed no one.
She opened the shack and looked over in the moonlight. There were some more things in the room.
There were two more quilts and pillows on the bed, a washbasin on the ground, and some food.
There was a burnt bandage in the fireplace with bloodstains, but only the size of a fingernail was left. It was only found by digging through the ashes.
Those people had indeed left.
Lu Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the appearance of those people, they would not come back.
As for why she was so sure, she felt that those people had extraordinary identities and wanted to stay here and wait, which would definitely be impossible.
Since the people had left, she could bring the children back.
Looking at the quilt on the bed, she thought about it and decided to stay. They just needed it.
As for what others had used, it didn't matter. It was so late. What would it matter if others had used it?
She bought some more things, all food, and then closed the door of the room, locked the courtyard door from the inside, and then went back.
The next morning, when they woke up,
several people were still in a daze, and Lu Jinnian had already roasted the rabbit.
"Brother, when can we go home?" This was the first thing Lu Jinqiu said when he woke up.
Everyone was used to it, he said this every day.
Hearing this, Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "Go home after dinner!"
"Oh..." Lu Jinqiu was listless.
Then everyone looked at her in surprise.
"Brother, can we really go home?"
"You can go back, they have left." Lu Jinnian nodded with certainty.
Everyone was very happy to hear this, and there was no place more comfortable than their shack.
After breakfast, everyone quickly packed up. The previous firewood was not burned out, so Lu Jincheng carried it directly back home.
Everyone took brisk steps, and the journey down the mountain to go home felt particularly fast.
Before noon, everyone arrived home, and the shack was still the same.
"Go home! Go home!" Lu Jinqiu ran home quickly with a smile on her face.
The other brothers and sisters were the same, and they were particularly happy.
Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "You go home first, I'll chop some firewood nearby."
A lot of firewood at home was burned, so now they need to find some more dry firewood.
After a few people entered the house, they found a lot of things. You don't have to guess that they must have been left by those people.
"Second brother, can we use this thing?" Lu Jinxin turned around and asked.
Lu Jincheng looked at the quilt on the bed and the food on the ground, thought for a while and said, "Of course they can be used. They used our house, and these things are compensation."
If possible, he would rather not have these things.
Is there any place more comfortable than living in a shack? It's better to have your own home, no matter what kind of shack or house it is.
In the evening, the family can eat. They cooked rice and stewed a pot of rabbit and pheasant.
In addition to these things, they have nothing else to eat.
It would be nice if they could grow vegetables, at least they could have some pickles to eat.
They are also very happy to eat meat every day. At least it is much better than before when they couldn't eat for a long time.
Thanks to Bubu1502 and Wowuwokan for the reward
