Transmigrated to Famine Year: Supermarket Owner at Five and a Half

Song Tantian transmigrated to ancient times, becoming a five-and-a-half-year-old little sprout. In a chaotic, famine-stricken world, surrounded by danger, she immediately faced the immense change o...

Chapter Thirty-Four: He recovered after eating his fill.

"Run towards the fire." Let's deal with the python crisis first before worrying about anything else. Ye Moxun thought helplessly, if only Song Tantan were here. She has a stream in her space that can spray water to put out the fire. She should be alright, right? I hope she won't be torn apart by the wolves.

Song Tantan, you must live!

As if sensing his inner cry, Song Tantan really appeared, her little face flushed, and she ran over with all her might on her short legs.

"Goodness, if it weren't for the fire here, I wouldn't have been able to find you guys," Song Tantan shouted at Ye Moxun. "You take the men and go first, leave this to me."

Even the wolf pack couldn't handle Song Tantan, so a python should be easier to deal with. Once he figured this out, Ye Moxun grabbed Zhu Xiu and ran. Zhu Xiu was already terrified and her legs were so weak she could barely walk. She was just barely holding on as Ye Moxun pulled her along.

At this moment, Song Tantan didn't care whether anyone would discover her secret. She quickly ran to the tail of the python. As soon as her chubby little hand touched the snake's tail, she had a thought and put the python into the supermarket in her space.

The fire spread quite quickly, so Song Tantan immediately used her mind to draw water from the stream in her spatial dimension to extinguish it. She had to concentrate all her energy to spray the water higher and farther, while also running after the fire with her short legs to put it out.

Half an hour had passed before the fire was finally extinguished. The mountain was covered with trees and weeds, and the three-year drought had left the trees and plants half-dead. The previous rain had only allowed everything to recover to less than half its original state, and the fire had spread out of control.

Speaking of which, Song Zhuiyan also blew up a wine bottle, but she did it cleverly and didn't cause a mountain fire.

Song Zhuiyan: Actually, it was quite dangerous. There was almost a fire during the journey, but the fire was extinguished by the soldiers' blood and corpses before it could spread. The scene was extremely bloody and tragic, and I dare not mention it.

After a fierce battle with Zhong Qingyi, she took advantage of the darkness to dart into the woods and escape. The soldiers had been badly beaten and suffered heavy casualties, so they dared not give chase for the time being and could only wait until dawn.

After daybreak, Song Zhuiyan and Zhong Qingyi had already run far away. They were chasing after Song Tantan and the others, but they didn't see anyone else until the first light of dawn.

"Did we take the wrong road?" Song Zhuiyan asked anxiously. Tan Tan would definitely be worried if he couldn't see her.

Zhong Qingyi's complexion wasn't much better either. A-Xun had always been physically weak, and she was really worried that something might happen to him on the road.

However, there was nothing they could do for the time being. They hadn't rested or slept all night, and they were exhausted and hungry. Catching up on sleep was out of the question, so they could only eat something to fill their stomachs and wait until they regained some strength before going to look for something else.

Both men carried food with them: two dry, flatbreads. They swallowed them with a few bites of water, rested briefly, and then continued on their way. They were afraid of attracting the attention of the soldiers, but dared not shout, which made the search even more difficult.

As the sun set, Song Tantan was awakened by an anxious shout. She struggled to open her eyes in a daze, and the first thing she saw was a magnified, exquisite face. The owner of the face had tightly furrowed brows and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was awake.

"Tantan, how are you? Are you feeling unwell? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?" Ye Moxun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"...What's wrong with me?" Song Tantan was completely bewildered. She tried to sit up but found her whole body limp and powerless. How did she become so weak?

"Don't you remember? You fainted when I found you. More than five hours have passed since then. I found you at Chen Shi (7-9 AM), and it's almost You Shi (5-7 PM) now." He was so worried; he almost thought she wouldn't wake up.

"I slept for so long?" Song Tantan looked dazed. It took her a while to recall the memories before she fainted. She drew water from the stream in her space to put out the fire. Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, her body swayed and everything went black.

She woke up here and was told by Ye Moxun that she had been unconscious for a day.

After thinking for a moment, she realized that it was probably caused by overusing the space and expending too much energy. In the past, it was fine to take food out of the space or bring it in, but this time she not only captured a pack of wolves, but also a python. Then she drew a large amount of water from the stream in the space to put out the fire. She not only exhausted her physical strength, but also spent a lot of energy, so she couldn't take it and fainted.

She told Ye Moxun her guess, pouted, and said unhappily, "It seems my space is a bit useless too."

Ye Moxun indicated that he did not want to speak. If her space was considered useless, then his useless system could really be scrapped.

Waaaaah, the system doesn't understand why it got caught in the crossfire even though it was lying down?

"Oh my, Tantan is awake! That's great! We were so worried!" Zhu Xiu brought over a bowl of porridge. Seeing that Song Tantan was awake, she put the bowl of porridge in Ye Moxun's hand. "You eat first, I'll go get a bowl for Tantan."

It was called porridge, but it was mostly water with very little rice. There were less than ten grains of rice in a bowl, which was no different from drinking dishwater. Ye Moxun pursed his lips, picked up the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp. He didn't dare let Song Tantan take anything out of her spatial storage, for fear that she would be hurt even more.

Zhu Xiu quickly returned with a bowl of porridge. She helped Song Tantan up, half-embracing her, and fed her the porridge spoonful by spoonful.

"Sister Zhu, I'm full. Let me lie down for a while longer. Don't worry about me. Go and eat your porridge. Ah Xun is here with me." She and her aunt had started calling Ye Moxun "Ah Xun" along with Uncle Zhong, without knowing when it started.

At first, they called each other by their full names, but gradually they started to change how they addressed each other. Ye Moxun called her Tantan, and she called him Axun. It turns out that when people live together for a long time, they really do get used to each other and become closer without realizing it.

"I've saved my bowl, so there won't be any left to eat." Zhu Xiu smiled, helped Song Tantan lie down on the straw mat, and went to drink her porridge.

"Ah Xun, where are my aunt and your uncle?"

"They haven't joined us yet, but don't worry, they're skilled in martial arts and will escape. They'll definitely find us eventually." Ye Moxun was anxious, but he didn't dare show it in front of her, afraid that it would make her even more worried.

“The terrain here is complicated, and wild animals roam around. If they get lost while being chased by wild beasts…” Song Tantan didn’t finish her sentence. With a thought, two large meat buns appeared in her hand. She quickly stuffed one into Ye Moxun’s hand. “Eat quickly. You need to be full to have the strength to find people.”

Ye Moxun quickly hid the large meat bun in his arms, and said with a stern face, "You haven't recovered your strength yet, so don't use your space recklessly."

Knowing that he was concerned about her, Song Tantan smiled reassuringly and said in a breathy voice, "Taking these things won't cause any trouble, it won't have any impact. Unless another pack of wolves comes, I won't be able to take them back even if I want to, but I shouldn't be that unlucky."

After saying that, she quickly ate the big meat bun and drank the milk that had been prepared in the water bottle. She ate very fast, and after finishing, she patted her belly and smiled softly, "I'm full and have recovered a lot of strength. I have some energy now."

Then she took out some things from her spatial storage to fill her flat little belly until it was round. She sat up nimbly, overjoyed, "I'm alive! I think I'm alright now. I'll be fine once I'm full."
