Chapter 5 Searching for Ingredients
Seeing that the lady didn't stop her, Fen Tao handed it over. Luo Fu drank it in just three or two gulps, but her thirst was still not quenched.
She looked at her mother's bulging water bag and said bluntly, "Hey, I'm thirsty."
Zhu Mingqing glanced at her indifferently, and continued walking forward. While drinking water, he did not forget to ask Luo Huai if he was thirsty.
Luo Huai looked at the deflated water bag and shook his head, but obviously swallowed his saliva.
"Here, drink it." Zhu Mingqing handed over the water bag.
Seeing this, Luo Fu stamped her feet in anger: "Third brother, look at her."
Luo Xiao comforted his little sister, took two steps forward and said loudly: "Hey, my little sister and I are thirsty too."
Luo Huai said directly: "Give it to my third brother and little sister."
Zhu Mingqing acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He opened the water bag and prepared to fall to the ground without saying a word.
"Wait, let me drink." Luo Huai's eyes jumped. His mother was arguing with his third brother and younger sister.
Luo Huai was really thirsty. Luo Xiao and Luo Fu had almost drunk up the bag of water. Now that the water touched his mouth, he couldn't help it and drank it all in a few gulps.
A look of embarrassment flashed across his face: "No water."
"As long as it's not wasted, it's gone if it's gone." Zhu Mingqing looked indifferent.
But Luo Xiao and Luo Fu almost exploded with anger when they heard this.
What? Is it a waste to give it to them?
"Xiao Fu, Third Brother will get you some water." Luo Xiao stiffened his neck and looked very tough.
Luo Fu glanced at her mother and snorted coldly, "Thank you, Third Brother. You are always the best to me."
Coco and the others didn't find any water until the sun completely set, and they were extremely thirsty.
As it got darker, the team stopped and rested at the foot of the mountain tonight.
When everyone heard this, they wailed.
"There won't be any wolves here."
"I've never lived in the wild before. There must be a lot of mosquitoes. What should I do?"
Liang He scolded, "Clean it up in a quarter of an hour, or you won't have dinner tonight."
The noisy crowd immediately bent down to clean up.
Zhu Mingqing observed his surroundings and finally walked towards the big tree in front of him on the left.
There is a huge rock next to the big tree. People feel very safe when sitting under the rock.
Moreover, there is a flat area in front, which can be used for both attack and defense, and is a good place to rest.
Wu Yunyun and Luo Huai followed closely behind. Luo Xiao and Luo Fu looked at each other and followed.
As for Luo Feng, he had already laid down on the ground to rest. He had been carrying the old princess on his back for the entire afternoon, and his legs were still trembling.
Luo Huai took off his coat, spread it on the ground, turned around and said casually, "Sit here."
Zhu Mingqing raised his eyes and stared at the other person motionlessly. This child was used to being ignored and never took the initiative to ask for anything. Even when he was a child, he was sent to school because the old prince found out that he had been staying at home.
He seems indifferent, but every move he makes is full of care. He even asks her if she is tired. Doesn't he have any resentment in his heart?
It's impossible. Everyone will feel dissatisfied.
Furthermore, if he knew the reason why the Luo family was exiled, he would probably hate her even more.
Luo Huai frowned. It was that scrutinizing look again. He always felt that his mother wanted to say something, but couldn't say it for some reason.
He couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong?"
Zhu Mingqing shook his head in denial. Forget it. Why think so much? It’s best to maintain the status quo.
…
The officials have already started washing rice and cooking porridge, busying themselves with preparing dinner for dozens of people.
Zhu Mingqing also began to think about what to eat tonight.
Although she could enter the space to eat, it was not a long-term solution.
Now we are in the mountains, there must be food around, and we can also take the opportunity to take things out of the space.
Even the pots, pans, and utensils could not be taken out and used. She looked at the officers over there and had an idea.
It seems that the cooking skills from my previous life can come in handy.
She said to Luo Huai, "I'm going to find something to eat. You sit here and rest."
"Madam, let me help you." Fen Tao did not forget to carry her little gold mountain tightly on her back.
Luo Huai's expression paused, and he had just taken two steps when his arm was grabbed.
Luo Xiao: "Brother, don't worry about her. My little sister and I are hungry and thirsty. How are we going to spend the night?"
The food distributed by the officials must be neither tasty nor filling.
The only one they can count on now is their second brother.
Luo Huai's face darkened slightly: "Third brother, after such a great disaster, haven't you grown up yet? You only care about yourself and haven't seen mother..."
"Stop!" Luo Xiao said impatiently, "She treated me and my younger sister like that back then, shouldn't we be angry?"
Luo Huai was tired: "Two years have passed. No matter how angry you are, it's time to calm down. Besides, things are different now. Only if we unite as one can we get through this difficult time. You should think about it more."
After saying that, he chased after her without looking back, leaving Luo Xiao and Luo Fu standing there unhappily.
…
Zhu Mingqing felt overwhelmed when he saw Luo Huai following him again.
It was easy to get rid of Fen Tao by herself, but why did this second brother act like a follower, not at all like the villain described in the book.
"Wait, you can't eat this."
"Why did you throw away all the leaves?"
“It means eating things from the soil.”
Seeing his mother's gentle expression gradually turn into an irritable one, Luo Huai did not dare to act rashly.
Finally, Zhu Mingqing left after saying this.
"You two just dig yams here, I'll go take a look over there."
After walking for a distance, she looked back and saw that they had not followed her, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally some time alone.
"Qingqing, do you want to come in and take a look?" The little world spirit took the opportunity to say.
Zhu Mingqing thought of the supplies he had collected, his eyes sparkling, "Of course."
She pretended to be picking wild vegetables, and her consciousness couldn't wait to enter the space.
The space is very bright and mainly consists of two parts.
An oversized two-story house and land outside.
Although the house has only two floors, it has many rooms. If you count them separately, there are at least hundreds of them.
The supplies she collected were classified and placed in seven rooms: clothes, food, gold, silver and jade, study, weapons room, pharmacy, and a utility room.
The entire house is surrounded by a wooden fence. There is a young green sapling on the left side of the yard and a dry well on the right side.
Outside the house is a piece of black land of about ten acres and a small river pond that is about to dry up.
Although the space was bare and there was no scenery, Zhu Mingqing was still very happy.
Once she cleans up, this place will become the paradise of her dreams.
Suddenly, a transparent butterfly appeared before his eyes. Zhu Mingqing looked at it curiously and asked, "Who are you?"
"Qingqing, I am a small spirit in this space. Everything in the world can be grown here, but..."
"Just what?"
"...The Immortal Mansion is severely damaged and needs to be repaired, otherwise it will disappear soon."
The little world spirit stammered as he finished speaking, fearing that Qingqing would dislike it and not want to repair it.
Zhu Mingqing blinked, a hint of doubt on her pretty face: "Immortal Palace? Disappeared?"
Are you sure? She is a person who has traveled through time and space in a book.
Moreover, it is a route of fighting for hegemony in troubled times, so how come the element of cultivating immortals appears again?
Little World Spirit: "Yes, this space is the cultivation immortal residence. Qingqing, if you have anything you want to know, you can ask me."
