Mu Bai, who slowly woke up, calmly accepted the fact that he suddenly had a new family. His sister must have done the right thing.
In this way, the brother and sister followed the team towards the capital.
Mu Jin only took out a box and asked Mu Bai to carry it. Actually, there was nothing inside. She would use the box to get things from the space when she needed them.
Although the village chief's family was kind and treated the two siblings as family, they were not the kind of people who would take advantage of others to eat and live for free. They insisted that they had enough food and could definitely hold on until they reached the capital, so Zhang stopped trying to persuade them.
Mu Jin deeply understood that as a refugee fleeing famine, she would feel embarrassed to have two more mouths to feed at first, but the road ahead would only become more difficult and food would become less and less.
By then, these two extra mouths will become sinners, so it is better to come out separately at the beginning to save trouble in the future.
The brother and sister have always been very low-key. They only eat with everyone else when everyone else starts eating, trying to minimize their presence.
At the beginning, everyone still made fire to cook, and the food was no different from at home. Mu Jin also followed the crowd and barely kept up with the nutrition. At night, he would replenish his nutrition in the space.
I also prepared some food for Mu Bai that would not spread the fragrance, and he ate it all while he was resting.
No outsiders are allowed to enter the space, even if Mu Bai is his own brother. In order to replenish Mu Bai's body, this is the only way.
Money has always been a source of inspiration for people. People’s lives are decent now, but that may not be the case in the future.
Before the end of the world, I also watched a lot of costume dramas. It was common for people to eat their own children during famine.
At least it hasn't come to that point yet. Mu Jin is not afraid of trouble, but she can't create trouble. Now everything is based on protecting the baby in her belly. She will just stay calm for now.
Days passed one by one. At the beginning, we brought our families out with us. There was enough food and the villagers were all talking and laughing along the way.
As the weather got hotter, food and water were running low, and the laughter and joy among the crowd gradually faded.
After all, talking less not only saves energy but also saves water.
People can survive for three days without food by drinking only water, but without water, they will die.
The village chief's family is indeed a good family. They take good care of the siblings, fearing that they will be bullied by the hooligans in the village. However, there are always times when they are negligent.
Although ordinary farmers don’t have much food at home, they can still barely make ends meet. However, those people in the village who have been idle before are not necessarily the same. They are gradually starting to have thoughts that they shouldn’t have.
The villagers all knew each other's strengths and weaknesses, so Liu Ergou set his sights on the powerless Mujin siblings.
The two were from outside the village and had little affection for the villagers. When something happened, the villagers would just stand by and watch.
I stole the food and ate it. Even if the village chief found out later, what could he do? Could he cut open my stomach?
So in the end they can only swallow this loss
Liu Ergou made up his mind and decided to take action after dark.
Because the brother and sister had to cook for themselves in the middle of the night, they did not rest in the center of the crowd, but on the margins.
It's summer now, and everyone just spreads a piece of cloth on the ground to sleep, which can also allow for ventilation and coolness. The same is true for the two siblings.
As for what Liu Ergou was planning, Mu Jin gradually sensed something from his vague gazes over the past few days.
I guessed that the other party was interested in the food in the boxes that I had said was enough for them to reach the capital, so I started to think about it.
