As soon as the snow leopard landed, it hopped away and ran off.

Bai Jiu: "Why are the potato vines turning yellow?"

Bai Chang: "The potatoes are almost ripe, so the vines will naturally turn yellow."

The soldiers patrolling in the distance saw someone approaching, and that they were accompanied by a dog, so they knew it was Bai Shuang and her group.

"Dr. Bai, you've finally arrived! It's been so long since we've seen you."

Bai Shuang: "Is someone sick or injured?"

"Soldier, ...no, we don't have any. Do you have any Lao Gan Ma chili sauce?"

At this moment, Bai Shuang also realized that their lives were usually quite hard.

"Oh, so that's what it is. Why didn't you say so sooner? Don't you grow soybeans and chili peppers? I'll make some for you when I have time."

The soldier was very excited. "Thank you so much, Dr. Bai."

As they talked, Bai Shuang and the others wandered around the slope. The trees never came back to life; some had already been cut down, probably burned as firewood by the guards.

We ate lunch together on the hillside. It was Chinese New Year, so Bai Shuang and Bai Jiu were in charge of cooking and steaming the rice.

Since it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, they had canned luncheon meat. Bai Shuang took out several cans of chicken, canned ribbonfish, and their favorite Lao Gan Ma chili sauce from her pocket (space).

I diced luncheon meat and made a big pot of curry sauce with potatoes, and then stir-fried some vegetables with greens that grew on the hillside.

Everyone looked at the dishes, which looked and smelled delicious.

As they took out their bowls to serve themselves rice, a soldier said, "The general is here."

Bai Shuang was a little confused. "Where is your general?"

Looking up, she saw that Lu Yu and his men were already in front of her. Only then did she realize that the general the soldier had mentioned was Lu Yu.

The guard smiled and said, "Bai Jiu, are you coming to my house for dinner today?"

He almost blurted out, "You want to take it back?"

Bai Jiu: "Is your home on the hillside?"
