Chapter 6 Go up the mountain and collect supplies
A hint of sneer flashed across Xiao Jin's eyes. She had really put a lot of effort into getting close to him. Even he didn't realize that she was a martial artist. How could Xiao Jue give up such a useful chess piece so easily?
Xiao Jin glanced sideways at Dabao who was sleeping soundly in Su Ying's arms, and suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes. Since Su Ying wanted to pretend, he would take advantage of this time to heal his wounds. When her fox tail was revealed, it would not be too late to take her life.
Thinking of this, he slowly closed his eyes again.
In order to hurry, the team did not stop at noon. The officers were still worried that the prisoners would die before leaving the country, so after the sun set, they found a place to stay at the foot of a mountain and distributed dry food.
Su Ying also went to get some dry food so as not to arouse other people's suspicion when eating. She was not afraid of these people, but she also did not want to cause unnecessary trouble.
The mountain behind her was very high and the forest was very dense. In order to prevent attacks by wild beasts, she did not find a big tree at the foot of the mountain to rest, but found a meadow with a wider view, untied Xiao Jin and Da Bao from her body, and placed them on the grass.
Su Ying was also tired, but she still had to take care of her second baby first.
Erbao followed us on the journey all day today. She was so tired that she wanted to cry several times, but she kept her mouth shut and tried not to let the tears roll down.
Su Ying held her in her arms, took off the pair of small embroidered shoes on her feet, whose color had been unrecognizable, and treated the blisters on her feet.
Erbao was so tired that he had no strength left. He leaned in Su Ying's arms with his eyelids becoming heavier and heavier.
"Good boy, Ling'er, don't sleep yet. Eat something first." Su Ying brought the dry food she took out from the space to her mouth.
The little baby was hungry and sleepy. He instinctively opened his mouth and started eating when he smelled the fragrance. Before he could swallow the last bite of dry food, he fell asleep completely.
Su Ying looked at her sleeping sweetly with her little mouth pouting, and the cold light in her eyes softened.
After she put the heating pad on the second baby, she laid her on the soft grass and then got up to check on the first baby.
Dabao has been in a coma for a day. She has given him two anti-inflammatory injections during the day, but he still has a low fever.
Su Ying took out some glucose supplement solution and fed it to Dabao little by little to maintain his body functions. She also fed him some anti-swollen and analgesic medicine, and then walked up to Xiao Jin.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, she was suddenly met with those eyes that were deep into the cold pond.
Her hand paused in mid-air, and she quickly put the dry food, medicine and water bag aside.
"It's good that you woke up, so I don't have to feed you."
After saying that, she ignored him and went straight back to sit beside the two treasures, took out some dry food from her body and started eating.
Su Ying gave Xiao Jin medicine today. After taking the medicine, Xiao Jin slept on Su Ying's body for a whole day. Xiao Jin felt better. He propped himself up and sat up. He glanced at the black pills and dry food on the ground, picked up the dry food and started eating with his cold eyes without a trace of fluctuation.
Su Ying caught a glimpse of him eating out of the corner of her eye and didn't pay any more attention to him.
After eating, Su Ying sat cross-legged, concentrated her energy into her dantian and began to regulate her breathing. This method of regulating breathing was told to her by a comrade-in-arms who came from an ancient martial arts family. Her current body was too weak to use it properly. As a decisive warrior in the end times, she could not accept that she could not kill a cow with one punch!
As the night deepened, the surroundings fell into silence.
Su Ying slowly exhaled the turbid air in her body. After regulating her breathing, she felt more energetic than after waking up from a sleep.
She looked at the mountain behind her in the moonlight. The mountain was not very high, but the vegetation was very dense. There must be many wild animals in the forest.
Su Ying thought of the delicious meat and subconsciously licked her lips.
In the end times, there are no normal poultry to eat anymore, and wild animals have become the most coveted trophies after fights between various military departments. Now that there is a mountain full of wild animals in front of her, how can Su Ying miss the opportunity to fill the space.
After all, she was not familiar with the terrain of Chu State, and it was very likely that if she missed this opportunity, she would lose it.
Su Ying stood up, stretched out her hands and patted the three people, then took out medicine powder from her body and sprinkled it around the father and his two sons. This medicine powder was poisonous and anyone who got close to it would surely die. She patted them to give them the antidote to inhale through their noses.
After making preparations, Su Ying took advantage of the dark night to avoid the patrolling officials and sneaked into the mountains behind her.
She didn't notice that Xiao Jin opened his eyes as soon as she left.
He lowered his eyes and looked darkly in the direction where Su Ying disappeared. Su Ying, you can't wait to show your fox tail.
"Ha Qiu"
Su Ying sneezed suddenly when she entered the mountain. She didn't know who was talking about her in the middle of the night.
She pressed the mechanism on her bracelet to enter the space, took out a sharp dagger, a tranquilizer gun and a flashlight from a storage rack on the right, and then left the space.
The higher you go in the mountain, the lower the temperature of the air you inhale through your nose.
With the help of the flashlight, she found brown bear tracks under a tree. She followed the tracks down and came to a cave entrance.
The footprints disappeared in front of the cave entrance, so the brown bear was most likely hiding in the cave.
Su Ying picked up a stone from the ground and threw it towards the cave entrance.
The "click" sound startled the brown bear in the cave.
Soon, a fishy smell filled the air.
Su Ying raised the corners of her lips. The prey came out. She turned off the flashlight, hid behind a big tree, raised the tranquilizer gun in her hand and aimed at the brown bear that was slowly moving out.
Before the brown bear could react, the anesthetic needle penetrated into its body with a "hiss".
"Three, two, one."
"Crash"
The brown bear fell to the ground with a bang.
Su Ying walked out with satisfaction, the dagger in her hand flashing a stinging silver light in the night.
Su Ying bled the brown bear quickly and efficiently, then peeled off its fur completely, and then cut it into eight pieces and put it into the space.
Time in space is still, so there is no possibility of raw meat decaying and changing quality after entering.
After dealing with the brown bear, it was already late at night. Su Ying hunted some rabbits and pheasants in the mountains and then walked down the mountain.
Just as she reached the foot of the mountain, she heard unusual movement behind a large tree in front of her.
"What are you going to do?"
"Oh, what to do? Of course, it's to help the officials save food. Kill him."
"You are the people sent by Xiao Jue, ah!"
Su Ying didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but when she heard the word "Xiao Jue", she stopped.
Xiao Jue was just a scumbag who took advantage of her. If she hadn't been deceived by his sweet words, she wouldn't have been stupid enough to murder her husband. Although "she" was stupid first and couldn't blame others, Xiao Jue was definitely not a good person.
Su Ying turned around and walked behind the tree, and saw two men raising the stones in their hands and throwing them at the people on the ground.
