After she finished being happy, she went straight for the rabbit. As for Zhang Qinghua, she really hadn't thought about it or cared about it.
It wasn't that she hadn't seen rabbits before, but it had been too long, and her days here had been too boring, which was why she was so excited.
"Wow, what a fat rabbit! How much meat must it have? Just seeing it makes my mouth water. I really want to eat it in one bite..." she said, smacking her lips.
Zhang Qinghua was speechless. So it wasn't that he liked rabbits, he just wanted to eat meat. Luckily, I didn't say I'd let you keep them if you liked them, otherwise it would have been so awkward.
Zhang Qinghua lifted the rabbit up so that Song Lili could see it from standing up, instead of having to bend over, which was too tiring.
Song Lili developed an unprecedented curiosity about rabbits, and it took her a long time to calm down and shift her attention elsewhere.
Zhang Qinghua asked, "Why are you here? Where are the other two?"
"I don't know. I saw you running, so I ran after you. I didn't really notice the two of them. They're probably behind us." Song Lili didn't know either.
Zhang Qinghua was speechless for a moment, then rallied his spirits. "You ran here?" That seemed a bit fast...
“Yes, yes!” Song Lili exclaimed excitedly. “I never expected that I could run so fast! I’m like a lightning bolt, no, maybe even faster than a lightning bolt! I’m so amazing!”
Zhang Qinghua saw Song Lili turn her head and slightly raise her chin. He found her smug look cute, and her bright, sparkling eyes were exactly what he liked.
"Be more careful next time."
"I know, don't worry," Song Lili replied casually, seemingly quite used to Zhang Qinghua speaking like that.
Ever since Zhang Qinghua saw how strong she was last time, Song Lili felt that it wouldn't matter if Zhang Qinghua knew she was fast; one more or one less wouldn't make a difference.
As for the others, she hadn't thought about telling them yet. The days ahead were too difficult, and these things might become a means of survival at any time, so it was best to keep them to herself.
She didn't know if Zhang Qinghua meant it that way, but that was her opinion.
She's not an indigenous person after all, and doesn't have the same deep-rooted understanding of the environment as the indigenous people. She's bound to make mistakes because of her past beliefs.
Therefore, she needs to prepare for the worst and use these relatively relaxed years to prepare for the future.
Thinking about it this way, she felt she should have her own secret base, one that only she or a few people knew about. A cunning rabbit has three burrows, which is never a bad idea.
"Do you know any secluded places? Places suitable for hiding things, but not usually known to the villagers? Do you know any?" Song Lili asked.
She felt that since "Li Qinghua" was her future grandfather, he would definitely not hurt her, and he would surely be able to get through those difficult days. He also believed that nothing would happen in the places he knew.
Zhang Qinghua was somewhat surprised that Song Lili would ask him this question, because he actually knew of one such place, and only he knew it; he hadn't even told Li Qinghua.
For some reason, Zhang Qinghua suddenly had an impulse to take Song Lili to his secret base and make this secret their secret.
"I know a place, but it's quite dangerous. If you want to go, you have to listen to me, or I won't take you."
Song Lili immediately nodded, "Definitely, definitely, I'll listen to you." As long as there's a place like this, what's so difficult about listening to Zhang Qinghua?
Zhang Qinghua glanced at the sky and realized there was still time. Moreover, with Song Lili here, Li Qinghua was definitely with Yang Mei and wouldn't come looking for him. He decided to leave immediately.
"Alright, let's go." With that, he led the way.
Song Lili hurriedly followed, curious about where it was. Decades later, the place had changed so much that she really couldn't guess.
After walking for about half an hour, they reached the middle of another mountain, where Zhang Qinghua stopped and walked to the side.
Then, he rudely parted a large thicket, squeezed in, and used his hands to pry open the hole in the slowly closing thicket, looking at Song Lili.
Song Lili shuddered. My God, that was a thicket full of thorns! How could this person have walked through it without batting an eye? It looked painful.
She was conflicted about whether to go over there or not. How painful it would be if those thorns got into her skin! Just thinking about it made her tremble.
But what would she do if she didn't go? Finally, she gritted her teeth and decided that it was better to suffer a little pain than to die.
