Chapter 419419 A Turning Point (1)

After an afternoon of work, Xia Tian's firewood, combined with the firewood she had stockpiled before, was enough to last for about three months.

In other words, if we stop stockpiling firewood from now on, combined with this month of the hot season, it will only be enough to support the two months of the cold season.

You know, the cold season lasts for six months, which is a full six months, and there is no firewood for four months.

This is not to mention that if you use a kang as a fuel, the firewood will be consumed even faster, and it might even be gone by the second month of the cold season.

So we have to continue stockpiling firewood, or we have to find other alternatives...

Xia Tian suddenly had an idea. That’s right, since the people of the Jintong tribe were cleared out last time, the territory over there now belongs to them.

And the coal we found there last time...can we use it now?

However, mining coal is not easy, and it is also very dangerous to do it alone, so this cannot be implemented at present.

"Tsk." Xia Tian frowned, feeling very upset.

She rarely encountered such a situation where she was at a loss as to what to do. At the same time, she felt extremely helpless and didn't know what to do. She felt inexplicably irritated.

"Xia Xia." At this time, Si Ye came over without knowing when, holding a bowl, like a pet dog asking its owner for food.

His tone was cautious, "Xia Xia, don't be unhappy."

Xia Tian paused when she turned around. It turned out that she was in a bad mood after he came out?

"Yeah, it's okay. It's okay now." She shook her head and forced a don't-worry smile. "I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me."

"My mother said that being unhappy makes you ugly." Although Xia Tian tried hard to hide her emotions, Si Ye was still keenly aware of the low pressure surrounding her. He insisted, "You lied to me. You are not okay. You are unhappy... Are you unhappy because of me?"

"Of course not!" Xia Tian denied without a second thought, "How could it be because of you? I was just a little tired, so I wasn't feeling well..."

Si Ye lowered his head, "Oh, but my intuition is that you are because of me..."

"I..." Xia Tian was really not good at coaxing people, and was speechless for a moment. Just then, she heard Si Yuan coming in from outside. Seeing that the two people were eating, he paused and said, "Xia Xia, there is still hope."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Xia Tian put down her bowl and stood up from the table. She walked over to Si Yuan and asked again, "Are you saying that Si Ye's situation can still turn around? What do you have in mind?"

Si Ye also stood up and followed suit, "What do you have in mind?"

"Here, take a look first." Si Yuan took out a very thin piece of animal skin from his arms and handed it over. "This is the news sent from Dongfang City. It explains Aye's situation. Take a look and see if there is anything that can be useful to you."

He had never been involved in witchcraft or medicine in Dongfang City, so even though he had obtained relevant information, he couldn't understand it, so he still had to ask someone like Xia Tian who could understand it to come.

"Okay, let me take a look first." Xia Tian picked up the animal skin and slowly unfolded it, inviting everyone to sit down and drink tea, "Please sit down first."

She unfolded the hide, revealing a complete painting without any words. It looked like it had been painted with some kind of paint, and perhaps because it had been painted in a hurry, some smudges of ink could be seen.
