Grandma Zhenzhu told Xie Yunjiao that this was at the foot of the mountain.
Xie Yunjiao thought that these old, weak and disabled people would not be able to escape far with her, a wounded person.
"But we are at the foot of the mountain, not far from the village. Won't they find us soon?" Xie Yunjiao said.
She had strolled around the village before and was quite familiar with the terrain.
The village is only about a mile away from the foot of the mountain.
"Don't worry, they can't find this place." Grandma Pearl said very confidently.
Zhou Ming's men had just come to look nearby but couldn't find it.
But since I didn’t find it, there’s no need to tell Xie Yunjiao.
Xie Yunjiao smiled at Grandma Zhenzhu and didn't take her words seriously.
If she could activate her space and hide inside it, she would be truly safe.
But the problem is that the strange magnetic field here prevents her from opening the space at all, and she can only sit here and wait for death.
Since they were hiding in the cave, they couldn't cook anything to eat. Firstly, they had no food. Secondly, even if they had food, they didn't dare to make a fire because as soon as they made a fire, Zhou Ming and his men would discover their whereabouts.
Agui and a few others came back with a lot of wild fruits.
Seeing that Xie Yunjiao had woken up, Agui greeted her happily.
Xie Yunjiao asked them if they had met anyone from Zhou Ming on the road. Agui said no, but he saw someone making a fire in the village.
Granny Pearl suddenly laughed, her expression a little mischievous. "Before, when I heard Miss Yunjiao say that Zhou Ming wasn't her man, I was on guard and had you secretly move all the food here. Even if they light a fire downstairs, they won't be able to find anything to eat!"
Xie Yunjiao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she was the only one who slept for three days and three nights, wasting three days in vain. Everyone else was busy.
However, Grandma Pearl probably didn't expect that since Zhou Ming's men had come, they would definitely bring supplies. They had their own food and didn't have to eat the villagers'.
"Uncle Gui, what are you doing?"
Xie Yunjiao saw Agui was about to make a fire and hurriedly stopped him.
Ah Gui said to Xie Yunjiao, "You're not used to eating our fruits, so I thought of making you some rice porridge."
"No need. Making a fire will let them know our whereabouts. Let's just eat fruit." Xie Yunjiao said.
"That's a pity. I saw you said before that you like the fish here, and you even caught some fish and wanted Zhenzhu to cook it for you." Agui said.
At this moment, Xie Yunjiao suddenly heard the cry of a baby. It was creepy to hear such a sound suddenly in this empty cave.
Xie Yunjiao looked around and asked, "Do we have a baby here?"
It was strange, because she had never seen any babies when she was out and about in the village.
"No, we are already old, how can we have children?" Grandma Pearl said embarrassedly.
"The youngest in our village is already over ten years old this year," said Agui.
That's strange, where did the baby's crying come from?
Could it be that there are other people here besides them?
Looking at Xie Yunjiao's puzzled face, Agui thought of something and walked towards Xie Yunjiao carrying a bamboo basket.
Xie Yunjiao heard the crying of a baby coming from a small bamboo basket. She felt scared and wondered how big a child could fit in such a small bamboo basket.
Agui walked to Xie Yunjiao's side, and before Xie Yunjiao could react, he tipped the bamboo basket over.
Xie Yunjiao was shocked. Agui was standing so high up, yet he still tried to push the child out without any precautions. She was afraid that the child would be badly injured from the fall.
Black? It has a long, thin body and four claws.
Xie Yunjiao was stunned for a moment. She looked at the fish crawling quickly in front of her with a complicated expression on her face.
This is a giant salamander!
I never expected that the fish she praised as delicious was this one!
In later generations, the number of this fish surviving is very small, and it has become a national protected animal.
The country prohibits people from eating this kind of fish, so she has no idea what the fish tastes like.
But after knowing that the fish she ate was this one, her mood began to become heavy.
Although it was in ancient times, the animals she ate were nationally protected animals! One less animal to eat!
"Uncle Agui, let's not eat this kind of fish in the future," said Xie Yunjiao.
"Do you think it sounds unpleasant? But it tastes very good. Didn't you also praise its taste?" Agui said.
That being said, but when she thought about the fact that its number would continue to decrease due to environmental and human factors, and even become endangered, she could no longer eat it.
"I'm telling you, this fish is incredibly vicious, and there's so many of them, they've eaten up all the other fish and shrimp in the lake, forcing us to eat them all day long," said Agui. "And they can't finish them all, they're getting more and more. Every night when we get close to them, we hear this weird noise, it's really scary."
Grandma Pearl gave him a glare and said, "You're deaf, how can you possibly hear anything?"
Xie Yunjiao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Agui in surprise.
No wonder Agui didn't respond when she spoke to Zhou Ming at first. She thought Agui didn't understand Chinese.
It turned out that Agui had a problem with his ears and couldn't hear what they were saying at all!
Xie Yunjiao's mouth twitched. She didn't expect that something extremely precious in later generations would become something despised here.
Xie Yunjiao ate a few fruits to fill her stomach, chatted with Grandma Zhenzhu and the others for a while, and then prepared to rest.
Suddenly, the people who were guarding outside said that people in the village were fighting.
Granny Pearl said, "That's good now. They're fighting each other like ghosts, and hopefully there won't be any left. That way we can go back to the village."
Xie Yunjiao felt strange. How could Zhou Ming's men start fighting when they were just fine?
She thought of something and suddenly became excited.
She got up and tried to go out.
"Didn't you just say that we must not let them find us? Now they have already started fighting. It is very dangerous for you to go out at this time." Grandma Pearl advised.
"I don't think they are the same group of people. It should be my husband and my brothers who have come." Xie Yunjiao said.
However, Xie Yunjiao was not completely sure, but she also didn't want Gu Huai and the others to get hurt.
So he begged Grandma Pearl and the others to lead the way.
Grandma Zhenzhu didn't agree at first, but she was afraid that her relatives would come to rescue her as Xie Yunjiao said.
Grandma Pearl immediately decided to take people back to the village.
Xie Yunjiao was still dizzy and had to be supported by two people as she walked.
Although Grandma Pearl is old, she walks very fast.
I didn't expect that walking a distance of less than a mile would be so difficult. No wonder Grandma Zhenzhu said that Zhou Ming's people couldn't find them.
Xie Yunjiao was sweating even though she was being supported by two people.
