Transmigrating to Ancient Times to Escape Famine, I Have a Treasure Chest So I Don't Panic

One year brought a great drought, the next year floods, and then, in a blink, a plague.

The Xu family fled from the north to the south, and then from the south back to the north.

Before...

Chapter 13 Dad, You Look Like You Scare the Roe Deer to Death

Xu Ning ate one after another, reflecting in his heart why he was so pretentious last night?

However, Xu Ning did not dwell on it for too long. After overcoming his fear of insects, he began to think about new ways to eat insects.

Like deep-frying it? I'll definitely try it when I get a chance!

Slurp!

Xu Ning didn't finish the worms in the bowl. He gave the rest to Xu's second child and also fed some to old man Xu, who weaved a bamboo basket as soon as he woke up.

The others thought there weren't many bugs and didn't eat any.

"Auntie, are these sweet potatoes dug from the mountains?!" Hunter Li didn't catch any prey this morning and was a little frustrated. Then he saw sweet potatoes cooking in the pot!

"Yes, it was dug by Mrs. Xu." Old Mrs. Xu lied with her eyes open, and Hunter Li actually believed it.

Hunter Li had dug up sweet potatoes in the mountains before, so he had no doubt about the origin of these sweet potatoes!

Sweet potatoes are easy to grow. They don't consume much water. It's not surprising that wild sweet potatoes grow in the deep mountains where there are lush trees and fertile soil in the low-lying areas.

"Auntie, I'm going to go inside today, so Brother Dayong shouldn't go!"

First, Li the hunter felt that it was unsafe for the elderly, the weak, women and children left after all the men had left, so he had to leave a man behind to watch over the place in case of a sudden attack by wild beasts. Second, he wanted Xu Da to watch over the traps nearby. He had checked in the morning and found that the wild beasts had taken another route.

He planned to follow the footprints and see what happened. He had to catch some prey today!

When he took his wife to wash up in the morning, he found out that she was still bleeding even after the baby was one month old.

Feng was afraid that he would worry, so she never told him, not even Zhang and Old Mrs. Xu, and kept it a secret.

Hunter Li was anxious. He had to catch prey to exchange for money so that he could take his wife to see a doctor!

Xu Ning was unaware of the situation. She was enjoying her sweet potato soup! She had secretly added a pinch of sugar to it, which gave it just the right sweetness!

Hunter Li had no appetite for breakfast and not only did he not notice the difference in the sweet potato and wild vegetable soup, he ate it in two or three bites and set off with his quiver on his back.

Mrs. Feng noticed the difference in the sweet potato soup, but didn't say anything.

At noon, Old Mrs. Xu cooked a bowl of brown sugar eggs for Feng.

Feng wanted to cry, but Old Lady Xu stopped her immediately. "If you want to cry, wait until you have a good life. You can't cry in these hard times. If you cry any more, you won't be able to get out of this!"

Feng sniffed and wiped away her tears. Old Lady Xu patted Feng's back as if to comfort Xu Ning. "Think positively these days, and things will get better and better. You are weak, and it is inevitable that you will have a bumpy ride. Just lie down more for the next two days, and you will be fine."

After listening for a while, Xu Ning realized that Feng's lochia had not been completely discharged.

"Baby, I want to exchange for gynecological medicine, for pregnant women who have trouble expelling lochia."

Xu Ning remembered that her sister-in-law had a weaker constitution and it took her nearly six weeks to completely discharge the lochia. At that time, she seemed to have taken motherwort granules, which were said to be able to effectively promote uterine contractions.

"Hello, player. The treasure chest can only be redeemed for basic medical supplies. Motherwort Granules are a basic medical supply and can be redeemed. There is currently only one box left, and 50 points will be deducted from the player. Would you like to redeem it?"

"Wait a minute, let me think about it." Xu Ning remembered that motherwort was very similar to mugwort. When she was little, her grandmother often used it to fry eggs for her, saying that it was good for girls.

At that time, she was curious and heard from the elderly that women who have given birth can drink some mugwort in moderation, which is good for expelling lochia.

Xu Ning thought, since motherwort granules are useful, then boiling mugwort in water would also be useful.

The points were not many to begin with, and directly taking out the items would not only fail to increase the progress of the task, but she would also have to explain it specifically. Xu Ning finally decided not to exchange it.

After lunch in the afternoon, Xu Ning took out her telescope and looked around while everyone was resting.

After looking around but not seeing any mugwort, and unable to see it from a distance due to its height, Xu Ning climbed up a crooked tree.

Xu Ning searched for a long time and finally saw mugwort next to a trap.

However, Xu Ning did not act immediately after discovering the mugwort, because at this time a creature similar to a deer was walking towards the trap step by step.

Xu Ning, who hadn't climbed a tree for more than ten years, suddenly felt a sense of familiarity after the silly roe deer stepped into the trap, and slid down from the crooked tree smoothly.

"Dad! Dad!" Xu Ning ran back into the cave excitedly, pulled the dozing Xu Da over and ran towards the trap!

"Dad, what a big roe deer!" The call for barbecue rang in Xu Ning's mind, and even the food BGM that he used to play often started playing!

When Xu Da heard that prey had fallen into the trap, all the sleepy people disappeared at once. The moment he stood up, he was pulled by Dali's daughter and staggered!

"Don't worry! You can't escape once you've fallen into the trap!"

The father and daughter ran to the edge of the trap and saw the silly roe deer kicking its legs. The roe deer at the edge of the trap saw two humans with green eyes staring at it and died in fright.

"Dad, you seem to have scared the roe deer to death?"

"Nonsense! The roe deer died from excessive blood loss. Daya, go get grandma! We need to rebury the trap, otherwise the strong smell of blood will attract other wild animals!"

Xu Ning looked at the roe deer that Xu Da had pulled out of the trap. It looked to weigh about thirty or forty kilograms. Xu Ning tried to lift it with his hands and picked it up without much effort.

"Dad, I'm going back first!" Xu Ning picked up the silly roe deer and turned to leave. Xu Da looked at him blankly, quickly set a trap and chased after him.

At the other side of the cave entrance, the other members of the Xu family and Feng were woken up by Xu Ning's shouting and were waiting at the cave entrance.

As soon as Xu Ning approached the cave, Old Lady Xu came to meet him.

"Daya, why is there so much blood?"
