By the time Bai Chi got the answer from Xiao Hei, it was already noon the next day.
He was not surprised, but just thought that he had to investigate it thoroughly when he returned this time.
Being able to feel the original owner's spirit body is obviously not normal. Before being exiled, he and Xiao Hei also traveled through countless small worlds.
But there has never been a single time where the original owner's resentment could be sensed, let alone the original owner's spiritual body.
That should have been something that was gone.
Bai Chi kept this matter in the bottom of his heart, always feeling that there was something wrong with it.
However, the most urgent task now is to store water. He has quite a bit of water in his space, but they are all bottled water and are not suitable for taking out.
After thinking about it, Bai Chi simply took advantage of Hu Yunxiao's absence to buy water tanks in other towns and store well water.
In the end, he even found two hidden underground water sources in the mountains.
A drought that lasts for more than half a year is not something that can be overcome so easily. Even if it is white-hot, more preparation is needed.
In a month, the news that there might be a drought has spread. If only one person dreams about it, it can be explained that the other person is dreaming.
But what if ten or a hundred people had the same dream at the same time?
What if even the current emperor and all the civil and military officials had the dream?
This is not just a simple dream, it is a warning from God!
The news spread quickly and everyone started to save water. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, at least having water at home made them feel more at ease.
Hu Yunxiao also took action. Not only did he store water, he also worked harder and asked Zhang Qiang to go hunting in the mountains together, and then asked Bai Chi to make dried meat.
In May and June, there was less rain and the water level in the river dropped. Fortunately, the bumper wheat harvest made everyone excited. This time, Bai Chi did not continue to sell seeds, but collected them all.
However, most people still sold the wheat, but kept all the coarse grains.
Hu Yunxiao and Zhang Qiang are not the only ones who know how to hunt. Many hunters have also discovered that there are fewer and fewer animals in the mountains.
This is completely different from the situation in previous years, especially for the old hunters in nearby villages and towns, who feel it most obviously.
The prey in the mountains began to slowly and continuously migrate into the deep mountains. Even the most common wild rabbits near the village disappeared.
When Hu Yunxiao told Bai Chi about this, he was looking at the granary at home in deep thought.
Bai Chi was eating barbecued jerky next to him. It was freshly made venison jerky, with spiced, spicy and hot flavors. Compared to the others, Bai Chi was obviously the most calm and composed one.
Seeing that Hu Yunxiao had been frowning for the past few days, he fed him a small piece of dried donkey meat.
"Animals have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Now that the surrounding environment is obviously not suitable for their survival, they will look for new places with food and water sources."
Hu Yunxiao turned and looked at Bai Chi.
"Achi, why don't we leave Qinghe Village temporarily."
Bai Chi didn't rush to object or agree, but just asked him: "What do you mean?"
Hu Yunxiao took a deep breath. It was obvious that this proposal was not a spur-of-the-moment idea, but was well thought out.
"Judging from the current situation, the drought is clearly inevitable, and no one knows when it will end."
"A natural disaster will inevitably be followed by a man-made disaster. This place is very close to the border, and bandits may become rampant. Even if we are lucky enough to escape, there is still the possibility of a plague or something like that."
Bai Chi was stunned, and Xiao Hei suddenly became excited.
"Master, your husband thought of it before you this time. I had forgotten about man-made disasters and plagues."
Bai Chi frowned slightly. Indeed, he had not thought of this.
"So what are your plans?"
Hu Yunxiao didn't think twice.
"I'll contact Zhang Qiang first and get all the chickens, ducks, and geese at home to make jerky. Then I'll take some food and follow the direction the animals left. Maybe we can find some water."
As long as there is water, animals are food, but it will be a little dangerous. However, he and Zhang Qiang hunt all year round. If they only bring two people, it shouldn't be a big problem to survive near wild animals.
Bai Chi didn't hesitate this time.
"Okay, I'll go to town to buy some common medicines, and by the way, find a way to hide the food at home."
Then the two of them acted separately, Hu Yunxiao went to find Zhang Qiang, and Bai Chi went to the town by himself. People were just a little panicked recently, but it was not chaotic yet, so Hu Yunxiao was relieved.
However, this kind of peace will not last long.
