As for the points in Chapter 101, let's see how the missions go in the future.
(Thanks to that year's comment "It's just a little bit of hardship" for casting 2 monthly votes.)
The lives of the people from Lijiacun in Liujiatun are finally getting back on track.
Even though the Mohe barbarians still lived behind the Black Mountain, after killing them once, and especially after discovering how valuable their heads were, the people of Lijia Village, big and small, no longer seemed so afraid or worried about the fact that there were barbarians behind the mountain.
Every household listened to what Old Man Liu and Old Woman Liu said, and everyone was actively preparing for the winter.
We need to gather plenty of firewood. Old Liu said it would be difficult to leave the village for at least three months, so we need to prepare enough firewood.
Especially after it snows, even more fuel is needed for heating.
Then there's food for the winter. The family had some extra money, so they asked Li Shiyue to buy grain last time.
If everyone buys together, they can negotiate a better price with the grain shop, even if it's just a few copper coins less, it's still a good thing.
In fact, most of the people from Lijia Village who made it to Andong had at least a couple of coins in their pockets.
This winter should be enough. When spring comes next year, we can start planting, and then we can start living a proper life again.
Everyone listened to Granny Liu's advice, found planks to make long wooden boxes, filled them with soil, sowed vegetable seeds, watered them thoroughly, and put them in the warm kitchen to see if they could grow vegetables in the winter.
When Granny Liu told the story, she said, "If you grow it well, you might be able to sell it in the county for money. People in the city love this vegetable in the dead of winter."
Li's mother and Zheng Meiniang, along with Shitou and Li Wangming, were tinkering with the long wooden box at home, while Li Shiyue, Li Qiutian, and Li Xiatian, the two sisters, carried baskets on their backs and went up the mountain.
The first thing to do when going up the mountain is to collect firewood. There are many trees on the mountain, and there are enough fallen branches and other debris to collect.
Furthermore, as Old Man Liu said, people rely on the mountains for sustenance. There aren't many wild fruits on the mountain this season, but you can still find a few hanging on the treetops.
Finding a few fruits at least provides a snack.
There are also nut trees like hickory, pine, chestnut, and hazelnut trees. If you can find one that hasn't been picked clean by animals, you've really struck gold.
Not only can we eat it ourselves, but if we have a large quantity, we can also sell it.
The three sisters each carried a basket on their backs and climbed up the mountain. Actually, Li Shiyue had something else she wanted to do on this trip up the mountain.
"Hey, October, look, isn't that the red pine tree that Granny Liu was talking about?"
Since the whole family drank the "vitality water," the effects weren't immediately apparent, but over time, the Li family members found that their hearing and vision had improved.
However, since everyone in the family was like this, they didn't take it to heart. Li's mother even thought that it was because they had settled down in Andong and felt at ease, and that they were eating better, which led to her improved health.
Only Li Qiutian in the family had ever eaten the fertility pill that Li Shiyue had put in her mouth. After that, Li Qiutian naturally felt that her strength had increased.
She herself didn't say anything, and others couldn't tell anything either, since she was very strong.
Li Qiutian had also wanted to ask Li Shiyue, "What exactly happened?"
But in the end, she didn't ask.
In Li Qiutian's mind: "October is October. Has it changed?"
She's still so good to us, so what more is there to say?
Since she doesn't want to talk about it, why should I ask?
When the three sisters arrived at the base of the red pine tree, all three of them could see the cluster of pine cones at the very top of the tree.
Li Shiyue put down her basket and tightened her belt. Today she was wearing a short outfit, and if you didn't look at her face, you would look like a thin man just by looking at her back.
Li Shiyue's machete was firmly wedged into her body. She said to Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian, "I'm light. I'll climb up and take a look. If I make a cut, all those branches should fall down."
Li Shiyue had already placed her hands on the tree trunk, but Li Qiutian reached out to stop her: "Shiyue, this is too high. What if you don't step on the right spot?"
Li Shiyue couldn't directly tell Li Qiutian that he knew the "Sunflower Manual" and possessed internal energy. If he practiced it to its peak, he might be able to stand on the treetops.
"Sister, I'm not that kind of stubborn person."
Don't worry, I'm confident in my abilities. If it doesn't work, I'll just back out.
Of course, just as Li Shiyue said, she climbed lightly and quickly, and soon she was almost at the top of the tree. She used her waist strength to stand on a thicker branch, held onto the trunk with her left hand, and reached out with her right hand to take out the machete from her waist.
She first called out to Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian, who were waiting under the tree, to warn them not to get hit by falling branches, before she chopped at the branches with her right hand.
However, when Li Shiyue finished chopping on this side and was about to move to the other side, she occasionally glanced ahead and her superb eyesight allowed her to spot two small figures coming from the mountainside.
Even from such a distance, thanks to Li Shiyue's extraordinary five senses, she was able to recognize that the little person carrying a basket and wearing red clothes was Li Chunli!
After taking a couple more glances, Li Shiyue suddenly realized, "Seriously? Such an important event as the first meeting between the male and female leads, and I just saw it so easily?"
Turning around, she carefully went to the other side of the tree branch, called out to Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian, and only after seeing that they had both dodged did she cut off the other branch with a single stroke.
Then, they retreated properly along the way they came.
As soon as she landed, she said to Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian, "Sister, I saw someone over there. Quick, don't pick them yet, just take them back with the branches."
The branch with the pine cones was stuffed directly into the basket, and Li Shiyue, carrying the basket on her back, ran towards the direction of Li Chunli, whom she had seen from the treetop.
Although Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian didn't know why, they followed Li Shiyue without saying a word.
Judging that the distance was about right, Li Shiyue put down her basket, found the nearest tree, and climbed up it.
Curious about what Li Shiyue was looking at, Li Xiatian put down his basket and climbed up another tree to the side.
In Li Shiyue's view, she saw Li Chunli trying her best to carry the person lying on the ground onto her back.
Li Chunli was just a young girl, and Qin Tao took good care of her at home, never making her do any rough work. So, how could she possibly have the strength to carry a man who was taller and stronger than her?
After trying several times and realizing she couldn't carry anyone, Li Chunli turned around and headed down the mountain.
At this moment, Li Shiyue remembered the useless task issued by the system---Please rescue the male lead Liu Shu who is trapped in the mountains before the female lead Li Chunli!
Even though I had already decided to stay away from the male and female leads, it was still 100 points!
"Forget it, we can't do this task. If we do it, things will become a real mess."
As for points, let's see how the tasks go in the future.
