Now Liang Yulin felt the fresh fragrance beneath his body lingering around his nose.
Although the person carrying him was not tall, he was very determined and courageous.
Leaning against her, she smelled so nice and soft that the tips of his ears couldn't help but turn red.
In all his years of life, this was the first time he had ever been so intimate with a woman.
In order to avoid embarrassment, he took the initiative to find a topic, "Why are you here?"
In fact, Xiao's mother was a little embarrassed and awkward. She had never been alone with someone like this before.
After hearing what King Yi said, he replied: "My daughter and I came here to pick mushrooms. When we were about to go down the mountain, we found a patch of wild berries and wanted to pick them. Then we saw you injured not far away."
"You are lucky that you are near the mountain berries, otherwise we would not have found it."
Liang Yulin laughed, "Yeah, I also think I'm lucky."
If he hadn't met Xiao's mother and her companions, he would definitely not have been able to escape today.
But he was actually a little surprised that Liang Yujun was so cruel this time. Did he want to break off relations with his royal brother now?
While he was thinking, he chatted with Xiao's mother.
Xiao's mother also gradually relaxed.
The two walked for another half an hour, and when they felt that those people had not caught up with them, Xiao's mother put King Yi down again and let him lean against a big tree.
Then he said to King Yi: "There should be a water source over there. I will go over and get some water for you to drink."
"You must be hungry too. I'll get you something to eat."
King Yi nodded, "Thank you for your help."
Mother Xiao thought for a moment, then pulled out a dagger from her boot and handed it to King Yi, "Take this for self-defense."
This is what my daughter-in-law taught me. Everyone in the family has special breathable boots for wearing in summer.
If they leave the county, they will put a special dagger in their boots so they can take it out if they encounter danger.
The northern border is really full of crises. Who would have known that I would get into danger when I went out that day.
Xiao's mother had a mysterious trust in her daughter-in-law, so she always did as she was told and would dress like this whenever she left the county.
I didn’t expect that I would actually use it.
Liang Yulin was stunned when he saw the dagger being handed to him, obviously surprised.
He felt warm in his heart. He didn't expect that this woman who always seemed to be timid would choose to give him the life-saving dagger.
He didn't take it, "You can hold it yourself, it will be safer."
Mother Xiao smiled and said, "I have another one, you can take this one."
"My daughter-in-law said that opportunities come to those who are prepared, so we all carry two daggers."
Then he took out another one from the other boot.
These are special boots with a special place for a dagger, so it doesn't hinder walking.
She, her daughter-in-law, and her daughter all put two in their boots so that they would have one more to spare after using one.
Liang Yulin: “…” The preparations were so thorough, each of Xiao Hanzheng’s female relatives was truly unique.
He took the dagger, "Thank you!"
Xiao's mother held the dagger and went to find water.
She had once gone to the mountains near the village with her daughter-in-law, so her daughter-in-law taught her a lot of things, such as how to find water in the wild and how to get food.
Which plants can be eaten and which can be utilized.
She wrote it all down at the time, and never expected that it would come in handy one day.
Following her daughter-in-law's instructions, she quickly found a stream.
Then he washed himself with the water bag he was carrying and filled it with water.
She also took a few sips of it.
Then he started looking for food again. Following his daughter-in-law's instructions, he successfully found a pheasant and a nest of pheasant eggs based on traces of feces and other traces.
She practiced martial arts with her daughter-in-law and daughter every day, so even though the pheasant was agile, she still managed to catch it after some effort.
After she succeeded, she caught the pheasant and put the pheasant eggs into the cross-body pouch she was wearing on her back.
He returned to the creek, cleaned the chicken, and then carried it back.
Liang Yulin was stunned when he saw the woman whose hair was a little messy and who looked a little disheveled from running and catching pheasants, but whose eyes were shining and who was walking out of the forest with an innocent smile.
Mother Xiao came over and shared her spoils with King Yi with a happy smile.
"I found some water, and I caught a pheasant and some pheasant eggs, so we have food."
Liang Yulin praised generously: "You are really amazing."
Mother Xiao smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, it's all because of my daughter-in-law. She taught me all these."
While handing the water bag to King Yi, he told them what his daughter-in-law had taught them.
When Liang Yulin listened to her talking about her daughter-in-law, her eyes lit up and her words were gentle. It was obvious that she really liked her daughter-in-law.
After listening, he also felt that Shi Qingluo was indeed amazing and knew a lot.
But Xiao's mother is not bad either. If she didn't believe in her daughter-in-law and study so hard, she wouldn't be able to do all this now.
After drinking the water, he felt refreshed.
He asked: "How do I eat this chicken?"
Xiao's mother took out the large leaf that was found to be non-toxic and said, "Let's eat beggar's chicken."
Then he took out pheasant eggs, a fire starter and some seasoning powder from his cross-body pouch.
Marinate the chicken with seasoning powder and place it on the leaves.
He dug a hole with a dagger and found some dry firewood to light it.
Then wrap the chicken in leaves, cover it with mud, and put it in the fire to roast.
Then they wrapped pheasant eggs in mud and baked them inside.
Then he took a few large leaves and fanned away the smoke from the fire to prevent himself from being spotted by the pursuers.
It was the first time that Liang Yulin saw chicken cooked in this way. He found that Xiao's mother was really interesting. She even carried a fire starter and seasonings with her.
While waiting for the chicken to cook, the two continued chatting, mostly with Xiao's mother talking about how great her daughter-in-law was.
Gradually, the unfamiliar distance between the two people was shortened a lot.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Xiao's mother dug out the chicken and knocked off the soil on it.
Soon Liang Yulin smelled a fragrance and felt very hungry.
Xiao's mother gave the chicken to him and ate the pheasant eggs herself.
Liang Yulin didn't feel comfortable eating chicken alone as a man, so he always asked her to eat with him.
Xiao's mother shook her head, "Only after you eat the chicken can you have the strength to escape better and find the way back down the mountain."
After hearing what he said, Liang Yulin stopped refusing and ate the whole chicken.
It tasted delicious, and he thought it was the most delicious chicken he had ever eaten in his life.
After they finished eating, Liang Yulin regained a lot of strength. This time he didn't ask her to carry him on his back, but asked her to help support him as he walked.
He could see that she had used up too much of her energy, and she would definitely not be able to handle carrying him on her back.
Seeing that he could walk, Xiao's mother did not force him to carry her. She really could not carry him anymore, and her legs and feet were sore.
Then the two of them supported each other all the way and found a way out in the mountains.
But before we found the way, it started to get dark.
The two had no choice but to find a cave to stay overnight.
In the evening, we ate the wild fruits that Xiao's mother picked on the road, as well as a few pheasant eggs that were left over from the roasting.
The two of them slept separately in the cave, some distance apart.
In the middle of the night, Liang Yulin suddenly developed a fever and fell into a semi-comatose state.
When Xiao's mother heard the uncomfortable groans, she woke up immediately because she had not slept well to begin with.
King Yi was hot, but his body and hands were cold.
She walked over immediately and was hugged by King Yi for warmth.
She had no choice but to let him hold her. She took out the water bag, wet the handkerchief, placed it on his forehead, and wet it again after a while.
Liang Yulin felt the warmth in his body and the coolness on his forehead. He no longer felt so uncomfortable and gradually fell asleep again.
