Chapter 35: The beginning of extreme heat



After getting the documents of separation of the family, Su Sijin no longer hid anything. She treated her illnesses and injuries, and ate and drank as she should.

During her rest time, she always managed to catch pheasants and rabbits, and of course, wild vegetables and fruits were also available.

The pheasants and rabbits were all taken out from the mobile phone space, but they were taken out under the pretext of going out to forage.

While "foraging" outside, Su Sijin naturally had to cook a small meal in her space, take a shower, and eat delicious food, such as instant noodles, spicy hot pot, etc.

Then he fiddled with it and found the medicinal herbs that Lu Changgong and Lu Changji needed.

These are all from the Imperial Hospital, they are very fresh, some of them are herbs and even have soil, no one will say anything if you take them back like this.

After more than ten days of treatment, all the toxins in Lu Changgong's body were eliminated, and his legs regained feeling thanks to her daily acupuncture and massage.

However, Lu Changgong's good news could not be publicized, and even Lu Changji's condition was improving.

"Isn't it plum month? Plum month is supposed to be the rainy season. Why is it so abnormally hot today? It's even hotter than summer."

"That's right! It's damn hot, and the sky is cloudless. It won't rain for a while."

Everyone complained about the unusually hot and stuffy weather.

Beads of sweat the size of beans made everyone groan in pain. They were thirsty and hot. Even when they sat under a big tree, the ground was still scorching hot.

Su Sijin remembered the introduction in the book, which said that there would be extremely hot and extreme weather on the road. Could it be that the extreme heat was coming so early?

Is this a precursor to extreme heat?

"Now that we've rested enough, let's go find some water! Our water bags are empty, and it won't rain for a while."

Tang Peng glared at those sneaky people, "Humph, you won't be able to blame anyone else then."

He has already reminded them what he should have reminded them, so if they commit suicide, they can't blame anyone else.

"Second brother, remember, until your eldest and third brothers recover, your duty is to protect them. Leave the foraging for them to me."

Su Sijin scolded with a fierce face.

Every time they went out to find food, Lu Changming would argue with him, and every time he would waste his breath trying to convince the stubborn Lu Changming.

"I……"

Lu Changming was scolded so badly that he couldn't find words to refute. He was the most useful man in the eldest house, how could he... shrink like that.

Su Sijin narrowed her eyes and warned, "When have I ever returned empty-handed? My martial arts skills are no weaker than yours, and I also know about food and herbs."

"Don't ever argue with me again about who goes to forage. If you say one more time, you won't get any of the game I hunt."

Lu Changming raised his head in horror and stared at Su Sijin, "Sister-in-law, you can't do this."

She knew clearly that he liked the food made by Su Sijin the most, but she insisted on using it as a pickaxe to threaten him. How could someone be so cunning?

"I can, I beat the food I made, why can't I? If you argue with me again, I'll give it to you or not."

After threatening the man, Su Sijin left with the backpack on her back.

Lu Changming's protest and Lu Qiuling's joking voice could be heard faintly from behind.

"Sister Su, wait for me." Shen Tingyun's voice came from behind him.

"Tingyun, what are you doing following me? Go back quickly. The mountain road is rugged and overgrown with weeds. It's not suitable for you..."

Su Sijin wanted to say that she couldn't bear hardship.

Besides, how could she cheat if someone was following her?

How can she get the water out of her phone? It's easy to imagine that finding a source of water is not easy.

Shen Tingyun carefully came to her holding the tree and firmly assured Su Sijin,

"Sister Su, I can do it."

She didn't know how to light a fire or cook, and she couldn't help if she stayed there, so she might as well follow Su Sijin and broaden her horizons.

What else could Su Sijin say? She could only help her and leave together. As for cheating, she could always find the right opportunity.

"Sister Su, why are you hitting the weeds and trees with a stick?"

Shen Tingyun was like a curious baby, asking questions all the way.

"Although the weather is hot, snakes and insects are still around and will hide in the shade to avoid the heat. We make noises to tell them that someone is coming so they can leave early and not bite us."

Shen Tingyun suddenly realized, "So this is how to startle the snake by stirring up trouble!"

Su Sijin laughed dumbly, "You're right."

Shen Tingyun was recognized and immediately smiled. He pointed at the dead birds on the ground and asked in confusion, "Why are there so many dead birds? Did they die from the heat?"

Su Sijin glanced at the bird and said, "It died of heat."

Even small birds perched on trees can be killed by the heat, which shows how extreme the temperature is.

"There are also the carcasses of hares, pheasants, and small wild animals. It's a pity that they've started to rot. Otherwise, we could have picked them up and eaten them. What a pity."

Shen Tingyun's rather regretful look made Su Sijin laugh.

"Tingyun, don't be sad. The most urgent thing is to find a water source. If we can find food, that would be great. But if we can't, that's okay. We still have some wild game and vegetables."

Su Sijin dried some cured rabbit meat and cured chicken, as well as some dried meat, so she didn't worry about going hungry.

If Shen Tingyun hadn't come with her today, she could have gotten a few more pheasants and rabbits, although there were not many pheasants and rabbits left in her phone space.

But the one hundred acres of rice in front of her villa are about to mature, so she doesn't have to worry about going hungry.

"Tingyun, you go over there and I'll go over here. Let's split up and look for spring water." She had to get Shen Tingyun out of the way to get the water out.

Su Sijin was looking for water sources carefully, especially in places where the weeds were still green. She would dig through them to see if there was any spring water.

Her hard work paid off, and she found a small hole under a rock. Water came out from under the rock from time to time, although not much.
