They were all on the mountain of Shizai Village and had seen the cave.
The caves there were small and dark, and the children were instinctively reluctant when they heard that they had to look for caves.
"Don't be afraid. We are many. We can light torches when it gets dark. It's just a place to sleep."
Although Xia Manni said this, she had already made up her mind and was prepared to find an open space to camp.
Anyway, the sun is so strong now, it’s okay to find a flat place to live.
But... there should be some wild beasts here too.
So, Xia Manni added: "Finding a cave is mainly for our safety."
Sanwa: "Mom, are there wolves in the mountains?"
Erwa: "Sanwa, don't be afraid. Erge and Tudou will protect you."
Xia Manni didn't have the heart to dampen the children's enthusiasm, but she still said truthfully: "There may not be wolves, but as long as there is water, there must be other animals."
The children immediately became cautious and held their weapons obediently.
They walked to the place where they had found the water source before and began looking for caves around it.
Caves are generally made of stone and are formed naturally.
Xia Manni thought that such a continuous mountain range must have caves during its formation process.
They searched until noon, but still couldn't find it.
Just when Xia Manni was about to take a break, Potato suddenly became a little abnormal.
Potato became very irritable, sniffing towards the west and barking hard.
"Potato, what's wrong with you?"
Xia Manni touched Potato's back with her hand, signaling it to calm down.
Potato did not calm down after Xia Manni's comfort. Instead, he bared his teeth and ran out in a quick step.
Xia Manni:?
Erwa: "Potato!"
Everyone ran after Potato.
At first, Potato ran very fast, and Xia Manni watched as Potato seemed to get more and more excited as he ran.
like……
It seems like there's something to eat ahead, or something that might stimulate it.
All Xia Manni could think of were bones or small animals.
But if they weren't even interested in a rabbit that had little meat, what could potatoes be so excited about?
Potato was so fast that Erwa couldn’t catch up with him because when he got to the back, Potato was jumping and running at the same time.
"Be careful, Potato."
Xia Manni was taller than the other children. Although she was chasing behind, she noticed that the situation in front was a little strange.
There……
It should be...
Cliff? ?
Xia Manni felt like her heart was about to jump out. Her shouting did not stop Potato, but it made Erwa, who was following closely behind her, slow down.
Why did his mother's voice sound so urgent just now?
"Bang"
It was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
This pet was Potato. Before it disappeared from their sight, it howled softly.
"Potato!"
Erwa hurried forward to take a look, and for a moment he was stunned.
It was not until Xia Manni caught up that she understood what was going on.
The slope that caused the potatoes to fall was a high slope, which was no different from a cliff.
It's like a cake being cut, it breaks so neatly.
Xia Manni squatted down and looked down.
Several children also wanted to look forward, and Xia Manni gestured that they could lie down and look.
The height must be at least ten meters.
The sun was shining brightly now, and I could see a rocky area below where the potatoes had fallen.
Looking around the rock again, I could actually see the bottom at a glance!
What does this mean?
Isn't this a cliff?
There's just a rock sticking out in the middle?
I don’t know whether I should say that potatoes are still lucky.
But, at this height...
Potatoes I'm afraid...
Xia Manni didn't know how to tell this fact, so she stood up and said to the children, "At this height, potatoes might..."
There was a hint of sob in Xia Manni's voice. She had never thought that there would be a day when Potato would leave.
Erwa cried and said, "Mom, can we go and save Potato?"
Si Nier shed tears and pulled Xia Manni's clothes: "Mom, Si Nier knows medical skills."
Xia Manni looked at the two children crying loudly and didn't know how to comfort them for a moment.
She nodded and was about to go to see the so-called 'cliff'.
Big Boy suddenly said, "Mom, there seems to be a path over there."
Xia Manni leaned over to take a look and saw a small path in the corner of the rock.
The reason why we can see the path clearly from such a high place.
It’s because the vegetation on that road is gone.
Sanwa took Xia Manni's hand and said, "Mom, let's go around from there and we'll find potatoes."
The family discussed it and decided to take a detour to look for potatoes.
"The potato is part of our family, and we must find it."
Xia Manni didn't say the rest of the words. After all, the death of a puppy is like the departure of a loved one for a child.
How cruel.
She knew there was no chance the potatoes would turn out raw, but what if?
It doesn't seem far if you take a detour from here, because the straight-line distance is not far.
But if you take a detour, you have to go around at least twice.
Fortunately, they remembered the location.
An hour later, they finally found the so-called 'stone rock'.
Xia Manni looked at the scene in front of her and realized that it was not a "stone rock".
This is clearly a cave formed on the cliff.
Looking at the rock from their position, they couldn't even see the exact location of the potatoes.
The eldest and second child went separately to look for the path they had just seen above.
"Mom, here."
Big Boy in the distance waved and shouted to Xia Manni and others.
Xia Manni walked up to it and looked at the road carefully.
No wonder it took them a long time to find it. This road can only be seen clearly from above because the vegetation on both sides of the road is covered by taller vegetation.
Big Brother was able to find this path by poking it out with a long stick.
But the small path is not as narrow as it looks, at least a cart can pass through.
You can imagine how lush the surrounding vegetation is.
Xia Manni couldn't help but feel a little strange. Since the vegetation was so dense, there should be few people coming here, but this road should have been made by people.
She put her doubts aside for the time being and decided to go check on the potatoes first.
Although this path is not narrow, there is a cliff on one side and the bottom of the mountain on the other side, which is a huge drop.
Only with strong mental qualities can you move fast.
"You all should walk close to the mountain wall."
Xia Manni pushed the cart and looked straight ahead. She didn't dare to look to the right.
Maybe the children are still young and don’t know what fear of heights is.
So here only Xia Manni had the expression of a hero ready to die.
Several children walked in front, and Erwa even jogged a few steps.
Xia Manni was so scared that she almost had a heart attack.
