Men, women, old, young.
There are all kinds of people, but no one looks like a winner.
There were also many people who, like Xia Manni, did not move.
Xia Manni was holding Potato, and when there was movement just now, Potato wanted to run over.
She was a little worried, after all, dog meat is still meat.
"Sanwa, Sini'er. Mother has a mission for you."
Sanwa: "Mom, tell me."
Si Ni'er looked at Xia Manni intently.
"Let Potato stay with you during the day."
She wasn't going to let Potato run away with them.
Although Potato is no longer a puppy now, it can only reach the height of a person's knee.
It is relatively easy for an adult to kill a dog.
The temperature outside has been very high. Usually, after a short rest after noon, the team will set off.
This time, someone walked for a while at the beginning, and following their calls, Xia Manni also went to try it.
It turns out the ground is so hot.
They lay under the shade of the trees with straw mats on the ground, and had no idea that the ground under the sun could be so hot.
Everyone also knew that it was impossible to make the journey at this time.
This winding mountain road was filled with people lying down.
There was no one in a hurry, and coincidentally, no one was coming from behind.
It was not until the sun was about to set that Xia Manni decided to go out and give it a try.
The temperature is at least over 30 degrees.
Looking at the time, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.
Although the sun was setting, it showed no sign of setting.
Scattered groups of people also began to try to hurry on their way.
Until the Xia family set off, the three Liu family members who had been sitting next to them had not returned.
Xia Manni thought about the one or two taels of silver she had received before, and realized that she had made a profit after all.
Otherwise why would I keep missing you?
She shook her head with a smile and started on her way with her four children.
They wore conical hats and covered the carts with two or three layers of leaves and branches.
She didn’t know if it was Xia Manni’s illusion, but she felt her feet were very hot.
In this way, they walked slowly for an hour, not very fast, and finally saw that the sun was about to set.
Just as it was about to get dark, people actually started cheering.
No one stopped to rest, no one complained of hunger, at least the people in the first team were all on their way.
They walked along under the moonlight.
Xia Manni was afraid that the children could not bear it, so she took out some pancakes and asked them to eat them while walking.
But the water in the water bag is almost gone.
On the way, they saw a small hill, and people ran into it like crazy.
"Let's go, don't stop. Let's hurry to the next one."
It’s such a small mountain with so many people, so there’s no way to grab it.
It's probably going to be another bloody storm, but fortunately there are still some sour fruits left.
In this way, the family of five did not stop along the way.
They actually walked until the moon was high in the sky, around ten o'clock in the evening, before they encountered a larger mountain.
Xia Manni and the children were tired, thirsty and sleepy.
There were about a dozen households in front of them, and they didn't stop either.
"Big Baby, you..."
"Mom, I'll go up the mountain with you. Let Erwa stay here to look after his brother and sister."
Xia Manni thought about it and decided that this was fine.
So the two of them carried all the pots, pans, and utensils in the house up the mountain in a backpack.
Xia Manni was looking for water along the way. Although the moonlight illuminated the water, it was blocked by the branches and her vision was limited.
Xia Manni finally found it and became a little anxious.
She held the torch and wondered why there was no water.
The eldest boy didn't say anything the whole time. He seemed to be searching with his voice.
Water sources on the mountains usually appear in stone streams.
There were other people with them.
They are also looking.
And they have met several times.
"Big sister, did you find it?"
When a sister-in-law saw Xia Manni for the second time, she couldn't help but ask.
Xia Manni shook her head and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't find it."
"There's nothing in the east, there's nothing in the west, only the south and the north are left."
The man next to the sister-in-law said.
"Don't look for it. There's nothing in the south."
At this time, a man who looked like an old man came out and saw them talking, so he shared his information.
"Anyone going north?"
"Some people went, but I think they went south again."
"Dear brothers and sisters-in-law, uncles and aunts, I am young, and I don't know if I can express some of my thoughts."
"Go ahead."
The oldest but strongest man here looked at Xia Manni and said.
Along the way, the young lady followed them with her four children.
He is neither impatient nor trouble-making, and seems to be a smart person.
The others also nodded. They didn’t know all of them, but they had similar ideas, so they all rushed ahead.
"Since we are all looking for water, it's dark in the mountains and we are short of time. Why don't we split up and look for it. If we find it, let us know."
She looked around at the crowd. There were about twenty people here, and it would definitely be fastest to act separately.
"We've searched everywhere in this location. The water can only be above. Let's split up and move in the four directions above."
"What if you still can't find it?"
A girl who looked about the same age as Xia Manni asked the question in her mind.
"Then we can only keep looking."
Xia Manni's words made the older people nod their heads.
