After getting up early in the morning.

Li Xu handed Sun Xiu a few kilograms of rice, saying that he had just exchanged it at the black market at night.

Then he took out two kilograms of rice and some coarse grains and put them into a small sack. This was Li Xu's rations for the next few days on the road. Otherwise, if he only ate coarse grains, Li Xu was worried that he would not be able to hold on.

The only food you can eat on the road is the pickled vegetables prepared at home.

Sun Xiu then packed Li Xu's quilt, toiletries, dishes and other items one by one and put them in a slightly larger sack.

After breakfast, Li Xu said goodbye to everyone one by one, and then went to the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative with a large sack on his back.

Uncle Xu saw Li Xu carrying a large sack from a distance, and when he got closer:

"Hey, you ran away from home?"

Seeing that Uncle Xu was joking with him, Li Xu also responded with a smile: "Yes, Uncle Xu, I was kicked out by my family, and now I am waiting for you to take me in."

Uncle Xu laughed heartily. "You better go in quickly. Your teacher and the others are already here."

Hearing this, Li Xu quickly said something to Uncle Xu and walked towards the car team.

After arriving, Li Xu first put the things in the car, and then went with Liu Gang to collect guns and ammunition.

After a while, when everyone arrived, we started to set off.

Li Xu still followed Liu Gang's instructions last time and loaded the ammunition in advance and kept it at hand.

After leaving the city, Li Xu felt much better this time than last time, and he was almost used to the bumps on the road.

Liu Gang was still teasing Li Xu: "How about it, you don't want to vomit today?"

Li Xu rolled his eyes, indicating that he didn't want to reply.

After driving for a while, everyone got off the car to add water and gas.

But unexpectedly, Su Weidong got out of the car and started vomiting again...

His teacher, Master Qi, was also standing nearby. He remained silent in the face of other people's teasing, and his already dark face looked even darker.

Li Xu had no good solution to this problem. After all, there was no motion sickness medicine like in later generations.

At this time, you can only rely on your physical fitness.

After getting in the car again, Li Xu asked, "Uncle Liu, what should we do if someone like Su Weidong keeps vomiting?"

Liu Gang glanced at Li Xu out of the corner of his eye and said, "If he can overcome it this time, it'll be fine. If he can't overcome it in the future, he won't be able to stay in the car team for long."

Li Xu was surprised and said, "Uncle Liu, it's not that serious, right?"

"What are you thinking? This is our livelihood. If you throw up as soon as you get on the bus, how can you continue working in the team?"

"Then there is no other way?"

"Given the current situation, there is really no other way."

Li Xu didn't know what to say about this.

We walked and stopped like this, and soon it was time for lunch.

Everyone parked the car on the side of the road, took the food and got out.

Li Xu looked around and saw no one else.

The drivers in the car team took plastic buckets, iron pots and other items from the cars.

This iron pot was specially provided by the supply and marketing cooperative to the motorcade for cooking in the wild.

Only then did Li Xu realize that he had been thinking too much.

He originally thought that everyone in the car ate alone, but who would have thought that everyone ate together.

But if you think about it carefully, iron pots are so expensive nowadays, it's good enough for them to have one.

Seeing that the fine grains everyone brought out were all rice, and only the coarse grains were a little different, everyone decided to mix them together and make a pot.

So everyone contributed food in the same proportion.

This is the fairest approach, because people nowadays can eat more, and no one in their teens has a poor appetite.

Some of the chefs were preparing to wash rice, while others were digging holes in the ground with shovels. Looking at their skillful movements, you could tell that this was not the first time they had eaten like this.

Li Xu and the other two were assigned to pick up some branches from the woods by the roadside.

Li Xu and Xiao Jianping pulled Su Weidong, who still looked a little pale, into the woods.

While picking up branches, Li Xu asked with concern: "Weidong, how do you feel now?"

Su Weidong forced a smile: "Much better."

Xiao Jianping also said: "Last time, it was our first time riding in a car and we all vomited. Why are you vomiting again this time?"

Su Weidong was also helpless: "I don't know either. I couldn't stand it after sitting in the car for a while."

Li Xu asked, "Then why didn't you vomit on your way back last time?"

"That's because I didn't eat lunch that day, and I couldn't vomit anything."

Li Xu: ...

Xiao Jianping: ...

Even Xiao Jianping, who had such a good relationship with him, only just found out that Su Weidong had not eaten last time in order to avoid vomiting.

Xiao Jianping asked with concern, "What are you going to do? You can't just go without eating, right?"

Su Weidong said: "Let's take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work out, I'll skip lunch and drink some water."

Li Xu continued, "This is a four-day journey, and today is only the first day. This isn't going to work. We need to come up with a solution to this problem fundamentally."

Xiao Jianping said anxiously, "Do you have any good ideas? Tell me quickly."

Su Weidong also looked at Li Xu with anticipation.

Li Xu scratched his head. "I asked the teacher, and he said there's no good solution. But I think if it really doesn't work, just eat as usual. If he wants to vomit, let him vomit. Maybe he'll get used to it in a few days!"

After he finished speaking, Li Xu felt as if the light in Su Weidong's eyes had disappeared...

Although this idea is a bit bad...

But there's no other way! Maybe I'll get used to it after spitting it out for a while.

Xiao Jianping also nodded: "I've also asked the teacher, and there really is no other way. If it really doesn't work, you can try Lao Li's idea."

Su Weidong nodded with a dejected look on his face.

It is really hard for people who have never experienced motion sickness to imagine what it feels like. When you are motion sick, you feel like everything is spinning and you keep wanting to vomit.

That feeling is really unbearable...

Li Xu took out two fruit candies from his pocket and handed them to Su Weidong. "Here, if you can't stand it, just peel one and put it in your mouth. It might help."

Su Weidong did not refuse and took the candy after thanking him.

Soon, Li Xu and the other two returned with their arms full of branches.

Liu Gang and others piled up the branches, picked up some leaves and ignited them with matches, and soon the fire became strong.

Others have also put up the pots and started cooking rice porridge.

There is no other way. The conditions do not allow me to cook rice directly, so I can only cook by boiling it.

Everyone was chatting and laughing while Master Zhao, who was cooking, was stirring the pot with a large iron spoon from time to time.

Time passed quickly and the meal was cooked in a short while.

Everyone came forward with their bowls and chopsticks, and Master Zhao used a large iron spoon to serve everyone rice.

You know what, Li Xu, who was eating like this for the first time, felt it was a unique experience.
