Su Sijin didn't care much, thinking that no one would have the courage to provoke her again, so she walked up the mountain with Lu Changji.
On the way, he met Jiang Hong and Xu Yongsi, and they traveled together.
Jiang Hong suggested looking for water in the dried-up river ahead, while Su Sijin advocated going up the mountain to look for it.
In order to convince others with reason, Su Si analyzed,
"The river is near the official road. Even if there's water, how can we get there? It's different in the mountains. Maybe we can find spring water. If we're lucky, we might even be able to hunt wild animals."
"I agree." Xu Yongsi nodded.
Lu Changji naturally did not object. With three against one, even if Jiang Hong objected, the minority had to obey the majority.
What's more, Jiang Hong didn't intend to object because Su Sijin's analysis was impeccable.
A group of four people went up the mountain. The originally thorny bushes showed signs of being trampled by humans.
The bark of any fresh tree is stripped bare, with some old yellow wounds and some new wounds still oozing sap.
Su Sijin couldn't help but worry: "The drought caused by the extreme heat has already caused famine."
Only when there is no food will they be forced to go up the mountain to dig wild grass and tree bark to eat. Another possibility is that the tree sap can relieve thirst.
Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is better than nothing.
There were few water sources found along the way. If she hadn't had the spatial cheat, she might have been "eliminated" by the drought again...
Jiang Hong's eyebrows were all furrowed together, and his forehead was wrinkled into a 'chuan' shape. He said solemnly:
"My father told me that the drought caused by this year's extreme heat is unprecedented in history. Such a rare drought is undoubtedly devastating to all things in the world."
What Jiang Hong didn’t say was that the extreme heat had just begun.
"By then, in order to survive, ordinary people will have no choice but to leave their homes and migrate to escape famine. They may even sell their children or even eat their own children."
Xu Yongsi was very worried. This was only the initial consequence. The series of consequences triggered by this would be enough to destroy Dai Viet.
For example, in order to survive, the victims had to go up the mountain and become bandits, looting and robbing. The casualties were even more devastating. The real disaster was the death of animals and humans caused by natural and man-made disasters.
If the bodies are not buried in time, it may cause a plague, and then...
Su Sijin obviously thought of all the worries Xu Yongsi had and sighed, "Uncle Xu, the established result is not unchangeable. We will fight for our rights and do our best to protect ourselves and our families."
"We are helping others to the best of our ability. The most urgent thing is to find water."
Su Sijin secretly wondered how she could "discover" water and "find" it.
"That's right, let's look for water. Why don't we split into two groups?" Jiang Hong said, "Brother Lu and Uncle Xu will be in one group, and I will be in another group with Miss Su. What do you think?"
Lu Changji immediately refused without hesitation: "No matter what, I will be in the same group with my sister-in-law."
The toxins in Lu Changji's body have been cleared out, and his complexion has become much rosier. Because he had been weak since childhood and had been poisoned, he looked sick.
However, at this moment, he was afraid that when the Black and White Impermanence came to lock his soul, they would sigh and say that the people in the world were more like ghosts than them.
He looked at Jiang Hong sinisterly, his eyes full of warning, "Mr. Jiang, your sister-in-law has married my eldest brother. Please call her Madam Lu from now on. Don't call her by the wrong name again."
After Lu Changji finished speaking, he stood inconspicuously between Su Sijin and Jiang Hong.
He has to protect his elder brother's sister-in-law and not allow anyone with bad intentions to take advantage of Su Sijin.
Although Lu Changji was only a teenager, his aura and warning made Jiang Hong clench his fists unconsciously.
His cheeks suddenly felt hot, and he subconsciously resisted Su Sijin using his surname.
And the thoughts hidden deep in his heart were revealed by the young man at this moment, when he raised his head and looked at Su Sijin.
But he found that she was already far away from him, and Lu Changji followed her slowly.
Jiang Hong lowered his eyelids, forcing back the loneliness that was emanating from his eyes, and followed Xu Yongsi in the opposite direction.
In order to find a place with more "water", Su Sijin wandered around the mountain for a long time before she found a cave in a relatively hidden place.
This cave was really hard for her to find as it was blocked by dense weeds. When she raised her foot, Lu Changji called her.
"Sister-in-law, this cave looks like no one has been here for a long time. Be careful of unknown dangers. I'm a man, so I should be the first to take the lead and protect you."
"Pfft..." It was rare to see Lu Changji so serious, Su Sijin teased him without hesitation.
"You are still far from being a man. The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Mother is not here, so I have the final say."
Lu Changji didn't say anything either, and entered the cave first without a word. Su Sijin was speechless. She realized that Lu Changji was quite domineering.
The cave is indeed very deep, and precisely because no one has set foot in it, it is very cool. Once you step into the cave, the feeling of heat quickly subsides.
"It's really cool here. Look, the ground isn't dry! I think there's some spring water in there. Let's look carefully."
The two of them acted separately. Su Sijin followed the dripping and donging sounds and finally found a stone cave about ten feet wide.
The sound of water was discovered here. There was a little clear water in the cave, and the water drops on her head fell just on her neck.
The coolness of the mountain spring water made her feel very comfortable. She glanced at Lu Changji who was searching for water carefully, and her consciousness entered the space to fill the water bag.
This time she filled it with spiritual spring water. Good energy and spirit are better than anything else. Even if she encounters danger, she can quickly meet the enemy.
Su Sijin poured another two-thirds of pure water into the cave, added some spiritual spring water, and when everything was ready, she shouted loudly.
