Lin Yue was surprised. Forgive her poor eyesight, but she really couldn't tell that the yellowish-brown thing was a building.
Aunt Huang led her over, turned to the front, and entered the room. The space inside was quite large, capable of accommodating three or four hundred people at the same time.
There are already dozens of people busy in the auditorium, men, women, young and old. The children are getting bowls and chopsticks. Although they have to do things, their faces are still full of smiles.
She didn't hear any noise from the crowd; it was simply because no one was making a loud noise, which made the village seem quiet.
The atmosphere in the auditorium was very harmonious, and there were no disputes.
"Miss Lin, you're here. Please have a seat. You'll be able to eat in a little while." Uncle Li took a spoon and was handing out food to everyone.
Lin Yue walked to the side, looked at the food in the iron bucket, and instantly lost her appetite.
They are currently holding two iron buckets; one bucket contains snake soup, and the other contains stir-fried rat meat.
Don't ask her how she knows them; she saw the rat's head and the snake's head.
"Uncle Li, aren't these things all gone?" Lin Yue asked after looking into the bucket again.
"Yes, they've all hidden themselves. Today, some villagers who went out to the mountains over there discovered several dens of these snakes and rats and wiped them all out. Tonight, we'll cook some for everyone to have a taste of meat, and the rest will be dried for later." Uncle Li trusted Lin Yue, so he couldn't help but say a little more.
"Hmm! That's good." Lin Yue praised sincerely.
Praise is one thing, but getting her to eat these things is something she can't do right now.
After sending out the snakes and rats, they brought out a bucket. This time, Lin Yue could see it from afar; it looked like it contained sweet potato paste.
Great, these are all foods she doesn't like to eat. If she had known it would be like this, she shouldn't have agreed to eat. It would have been so much more comfortable for her to sleep in her room.
But now that we've already come down, we have no choice but to bite the bullet and sit down to "eat" with everyone.
Soon, food had been delivered to dozens of people. Uncle Li walked to the middle and picked up a bowl.
"Congratulations to us all for another peaceful day! Let's eat!"
It was a very simple sentence, but it brought tears to the eyes of some of the people below.
Lin Yue hadn't seen the village chief speak since she arrived, so she guessed that he had probably passed away and that Uncle Li was now the leader of the village.
After he finished speaking, everyone started eating and happily enjoyed the hard-earned food.
Lin Yue held her chopsticks, watching everyone eat happily, but she just couldn't bring herself to pick them up.
She really didn't want to waste food; it was just that it looked unappetizing. She probably had never been hungry before. It was too pretentious, but there was nothing she could do about it. Who told her to be pretentious?
"Miss Lin, are you not used to eating these?" Aunt Huang asked when she saw Lin Yue hesitate to start eating.
Judging from Lin Yue's appearance, she's someone who doesn't lack food or drink, so it really doesn't seem appropriate to have her eat these things.
Lin Yue didn't want to say anything negative. What she considered undesirable was, in their eyes, a rare delicacy.
"It's okay, I was just hungry and ate something in my room. I'm not hungry right now, so I don't want to eat."
Lin Yue put it rather tactfully, but in short, she didn't want to eat.
"Oh! I see. Then you can eat when you're hungry."
Lin Yue "..."
She didn't know what to say; it seemed like nothing she said would be right.
Just as she was wondering how to answer, a little girl next to her suddenly looked at her with a sweet smile and said, "Mommy, this older sister looks just like the auntie from last night."
After speaking, he looked at Lin Yue carefully again, then nodded to himself, as if he didn't need anyone else's approval.
It was a very ordinary question, but Lin Yue suddenly paused, then looked at the little girl and asked, "Little sister, is the aunt you mentioned accompanied by an uncle?"
“Yes!” the little girl replied.
Lin Yue didn't need to know anything more. She simply pushed her bowl in front of the little girl and said, "Thank you for answering my question. You and your brother can eat this together."
There was a little boy next to the little girl. The two of them ate quite quickly, and they had finished what was in their bowls while Lin Yue was hesitating. It seemed that they were still not full.
There's still some left in that bucket; they could probably get more if they wanted to eat it, but she really didn't want to eat it.
The little girl looked up at her mother, who nodded. Only then did the little girl divide the food that Lin Yue had pushed over in half and happily eat it with the little boy.
Before dinner was over, Lin Yue said goodbye to Aunt Huang and went back to her room.
The little girl was most likely talking about her parents.
She looks a lot like her mother. Her family used to be in the medicinal herb business, and her mother often used some folk remedies to maintain her health, which is why she looks very young. When they walk together, some people even say they are sisters.
Although she didn't know why people from another parallel universe could be seen by the people in this village, she at least knew that she was heading in the right direction.
It seems that the convergence of parallel universes does not necessarily require the ethereal use of energy; it can occur at specific times and places.
Thinking of this, Lin Yue became excited.
The reason she didn't fly a helicopter is this: now that people have seen them, does that mean that as long as she catches up with them, she should still have a chance to see them along the way?
Lin Yue was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. Before dawn the next day, she packed her things, told no one, and set off again.
The road conditions on the highway were still not very good, but Lin Yue had gotten used to it after driving for more than a day and was driving quite well.
After driving for half a day, she had already left the area where several villages were connected, and she was now in a mountain range.
After passing these connected mountain peaks, it will take another half a day to reach L City.
She didn't know why they wanted to go to L City. Logically speaking, her father had a spatial ability, and they shouldn't lack food and drink, so there was no need to go to L City.
However, the lines on their drawings connect directly to place names. She knew her mother; this kind of connection meant they were going to enter L city.
Forget it, whatever the reason, let's go in and see. If there's nothing there, we can just go around and continue on our way.
As Lin Yue was thinking this, a sheet of iron nails suddenly appeared across the road ahead. It wasn't just laid on the road surface; it was a real sheet with steel cables piercing through it, blocking the way.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and immediately stepped on the brakes, stopping the car when it was still half a meter away from the nail board.
Seeing that she had stopped, the other party was not in a hurry and slowly laid the nail board flat, this time laying it on the road.
The two men carrying the nail board walked to Lin Yue's car. Soon, more than a dozen people followed behind them. It was the same old robbery tactic. These dozen or so people surrounded her car, and their eyes lit up when they saw that she was a woman.
