Looking at the familiar marks appearing on the tree, Fei Yanche also fell silent.
And they passed by this place not long ago.
When passing by, Shen Yu'an pointed out the scratches on the tree to him and discussed with him what animal left the scratches.
The others in the team also heard them talking.
So when Shen Yu'an asked Fei Yanche to go and take a look, Grandpa Shen and the others also went over to take a look, and they all saw the mark.
Everyone was silent. It seemed that they had indeed lost their way without knowing it.
They thought they had walked a long way, but after walking for such a long time they ended up walking back.
Ding Hehua asked worriedly, "What should we do? How about we turn back and take the mountain road?"
Zhang Wendong looked at his mother and explained, "Mom, since we are lost, it means we have confused the direction. Now even if we want to go out, we don't know which direction to go."
Ding Hehua became even more anxious when she heard this, and kept muttering, "What should I do? What should I do?"
Zhang Xiangyang's brain was about to explode from her mumbling, and he said, "Stop talking, you've made my head dizzy. Let's think of a way together and we will definitely be able to get out."
Then he looked at Shen Yu'an and asked, "An girl, do you have any good ideas?"
Shen Yu'an looked up at the sky. The leaves were too dense and the light that could shine down was very weak.
But it looks like they have been wandering in the woods for quite some time.
She thought of several ways to try out, but since it was too late, there was no need to rush.
She nodded and said, "There are indeed several ways."
"Everyone is exhausted after a long day. Let's stop here and rest for a while. We can try again tomorrow morning."
No one objected.
Originally they were waiting outside the city gate for Shen Yu'an and the others to come back and had not eaten anything. Now they had been walking for so long and were already tired and hungry.
Knowing that they would rest here, everyone started to do what they were supposed to do in an orderly manner.
The Song family picked up some stones from the surrounding area and built a simple stove and placed the pot on it. Several children picked up dry branches from the area and brought them back to make a fire.
Because the forest was too dark and difficult to find the direction, Mrs. Shen told them not to run too far.
Wulang and Liulang obeyed obediently and followed Sanlang and Silang to pick up branches around.
Chen Yun was not assigned any tasks, so he helped little Zhang down from the ox cart and let her move around.
The baby in Zhang's belly was already seven months old, and Shen Yu'an thought it was bigger than the big iron pot they used to cook.
Every time she came down for activities, everyone asked Shen Yun to follow closely, for fear of any accidents.
Old Mrs. Shen was so upset watching this that she said, "Why don't you just stop and rest for a while."
Bai Miaoqing advised: “Grandma Shen, Aunt Zhang is pregnant with twins. If she doesn’t move around more now, it will be dangerous if she doesn’t have the strength to give birth.”
Bai Miaoqing studied medicine with her father, which covered a wide range of aspects. Although she was still an unmarried girl, she did not care about these things.
Old Mrs. Shen was also an experienced person and knew how dangerous it was to have no strength during childbirth, so she didn't say anything else.
Others set up tents not far away.
Watching Old Lady Shen and the others cooking, Shen Yu'an thought of the things he bought in the city that morning and took some out of the backpack.
Shen Yu'an took out a dozen eggs from his backpack, as well as a few salted duck eggs, and even some meat buns, chili peppers, pork and roast chicken.
Zhao looked at the things that were taken out one by one and said distressedly, "You bought so many things. It must have cost a lot of money."
Shen Yu'an smiled and said, "It didn't cost much. We traveled all day without eating enough, so how could we have the energy?"
"When we get to the place, we can always earn the money back, so don't feel bad about it, Second Aunt."
Zhao thought so too, and happily took away the things that Chen Yu'an had taken out.
In order to make it easier to take things out next time, Shen Yu'an said, "I bought other things in the city. I'll take them out when I need them, and it won't be the same as taking them out."
Old Mrs. Shen looked at her and said, "Okay, just leave it there."
Wulang and Liulang saw Shen Yuan taking out so many things and ran to her and shouted.
Liu Lang asked, "Sister, did you buy candy?"
Wu Lang also followed up: "I want to eat the white candy from last time."
Song knocked him on the head and scolded him, "Don't mess around. It's good enough to have something to eat. You even chose it. You can eat whatever your sister buys."
But she knew in her heart that the candy that Shen Yu'an took out last time was so precious that it must have been conjured from the treasure chest that the old immortal gave to her daughter. How could he always have it?
Wu Lang covered his head and looked at Song with resentment. Shen Yu'an couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sister bought a lot of candies in the city, but you can only eat one a day."
"Okay~"
When Liu Lang heard there were many kinds, he couldn't wait to ask, "Sister, let me see what candies you bought."
Shen Yu'an did not keep the secret any longer and mixed some candies in the space with some cakes and candies bought in the city and took them out.
When the two saw so many candies, they cheered excitedly.
Shen Yu'an picked up the white candy that Wu Lang mentioned, which was actually the Little White Rabbit Milk Candy that Shen Yu'an had repackaged, and distributed it to everyone.
She kept moving among the crowd, having a lot of fun.
By the time she had distributed the candies to everyone, the tents had been set up, and the Song family and the others who were cooking had finished preparing the meal.
Today's dinner was very sumptuous, and most of it was prepared by Shen Yu'an.
There are hand-shredded roast chicken, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, braised pork, big white and plump buns, fragrant white porridge, and vermicelli pies.
It was rare to see two dishes of vegetables, which were of course taken out by Shen Yu'an from the space.
When Shen Yu'an was shopping, Fei Yanche followed her closely and remembered exactly what she bought.
Fei Yanche did not see those vegetables and candies when he was buying things.
Fei Yanche's lowered eyes darkened, these things seemed to have appeared out of thin air by Shen Yu'an.
He knew that Shen Yu'an had many secrets, but she didn't want to talk about it, and he wouldn't force her to ask, so he just pretended not to notice and ate quietly with his head down.
Shen Yu'an secretly glanced at Fei Yanche and found that his expression didn't change much. He thought that he probably didn't notice anything wrong, so he ate his meal with peace of mind.
Before going to bed, everyone sprinkled medicine powder around each tent to prevent snakes, rats, insects and ants.
There was no sunlight in the forest and everyone was in a deep sleep. When they woke up the next day, they didn’t know what time it was.
Shen Yu'an secretly took out an electronic watch from his arms, and the time on it showed that it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
