Half an hour later.
Zhou Jiaojiao's head, which was about to explode, finally calmed down. She opened her eyes, looked around, and found a few scattered refugees who were as pale and thin as her.
While no one was paying attention, she slowly crawled into the withered woods nearby.
It took a quarter of an hour to climb.
She had only moved twenty meters, but fortunately she managed to hide her figure with the tree trunk, temporarily ensuring that she would not be noticed by other refugees. Zhou Jiaojiao knew from the original owner's memory that cannibalism had already occurred among the refugees.
She didn't want to be eaten after finally surviving, so if she had to die, she would rather choose a comfortable way.
Zhou Jiaojiao leaned against the tree and sorted out the original owner's memories.
The original owner's memory was very simple.
She had lived in the Earl's Mansion, Zhou Mansion, for the previous fifteen years. She was the legitimate daughter of the third wife of the third branch of the Zhou family. However, she did not expect that just after she came of age, a midwife came to her house and told Mrs. Zhou San about the original owner's life experience.
The original owner was discovered to be a fake daughter. Mrs. Zhou San turned her love into hate and decisively sent her back to Dalui Village. Zhou Mianmian was taken back to the Zhou family.
After that, the original owner accidentally fell into the river with the Chu family's fool Chu Lao San. The original owner's reputation was ruined. The Zhou family's parents in Daliu Village, who had always been unfamiliar with her, directly asked the original owner to marry a fool.
That is the current husband of the original body, Chu San.
Of course Chu San is not called Chu San, but the original owner did not know Chu San's real name. Ever since he became stupid, everyone called him Chu Lao San or Chu San.
Zhou Jiaojiao thought of the original owner's last wish, hoping to repay the Chu family for taking care of her for half a year, to leave a descendant for Chu San, and not to avenge her.
Because the original owner knew that Mrs. Zhou San was definitely not a good person. She had plotted against other members of the Zhou family in the past, and now that she had allowed Zhou Mianmian to retaliate against the original owner, if she came to seek revenge, the most likely scenario was that she would be killed secretly.
Zhou Jiaojiao sighed. She was used to being alone and didn't care about life or death. How could she not know that the original owner's decision was the best? However, if she had the ability, she would definitely take revenge.
Zhou Jiaojiao lowered her head.
Looking at the slightly protruding belly, it seems that she has to save the baby in the belly. She will definitely fulfill the original owner's last wish, so this child cannot die.
But she could clearly feel her body was weak and needed treatment, otherwise, not only her child, but she herself would probably not live long.
Zhou Jiaojiao looked around and said to the system, "Xiao Si, can we start signing in?"
"Okay."
soon.
When Zhou Jiaojiao looked around again, she found a new sign-in area in the bare and withered woods.
"Dry Forest Sign-in Site. Do you want to sign in? Signing in consumes one sign-in point each time. One sign-in point is automatically gained every day and can be accumulated. The host currently has four sign-in points, including three points for the novice bonus and one point for daily sign-in."
Zhou Jiaojiao was thoughtful. It seemed that as long as she lived long enough, she could always go to the check-in point for free.
"Besides automatically earning one check-in point every day, are there any other ways to earn it?"
"The host can also redeem the merits he gains for sign-in points." Xiao Si said this with some excitement: "The more merits the host gains, the more sign-in points he can redeem. Maybe he can eventually redeem them for elixirs, titles, or something like that."
Zhou Jiaojiao remained calm after hearing this.
She doesn't think there is a free lunch in the world.
She did not go to sign in immediately, but continued to look around and found that there was a sign-in point on the side of the road, and another sign-in point on the opposite side of the dry river. In addition, there was also a sign-in point on the hillside in front of the dead forest.
The things at these check-in points should be different.
She now only has four check-in points, and only a little is needed at each of these check-in points, but they cannot be abused. What she needs most at the moment is medicinal materials, water and food.
Even with the help of her silly husband Chu San, the original owner had been hungry for three months. Not to mention being full, she couldn't even eat the basic 50% fullness.
Zhou Jiaojiao rested for a while, then crawled towards the nearest dead forest and arrived at the check-in point.
She said decisively, "Sign in."
"Congratulations on signing in to the Dead Forest. You received 5 Chinese Yam, 5 Eucommia, and 5 Duzhong herbs."
Zhou Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the sign-in prize. These three medicinal herbs are the main ingredients in the pregnancy-preserving pills. Although some of them are still missing, it is not bad to have the main ingredients.
She guessed that the environment here might have grown corresponding medicinal herbs before, so she wanted to give it a try. It seems that the effect is quite good.
“Cough cough cough…”
Zhou Jiaojiao felt pain in her stomach and couldn't help coughing. She knew she had to go and get some water and food, otherwise the baby in her belly would be in danger.
Zhou Jiaojiao was a little discouraged and thought it would be great if someone could help her.
Even if it means carrying her to the check-in point.
Maybe God was helping her.
Things will soon turn around.
"Madam...Madam...where are you..."
Zhou Jiaojiao didn't pay attention to the voice at first.
But soon, there was chaos on the road ahead. She looked over vigilantly and saw a tall but thin man with dirty hair. He was looking at a refugee's face and shouting something. It was obvious that he was looking for someone.
One of the refugees kicked the other person in dissatisfaction, but was kicked away by the man.
With a bang.
Zhou Jiaojiao felt pain for the other person, probably because his bones were broken.
Sure enough, after this incident, the refugees who were originally dissatisfied became terrified and ran around subconsciously. As a result, they were caught by the men one by one, and they insisted on checking their appearance before letting them go.
Zhou Jiaojiao’s eyesight is not very good, mainly because the original owner was in poor health and lacked vitamin A.
She saw the man approaching her.
She hid herself subconsciously, and when someone approached, she accidentally saw the man's appearance. She was suspicious at first, and then she heard him calling "wife".
Zhou Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
This person is Chu San!
Very good.
Compared to other people's fear, this is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhou Jiaojiao at this moment.
"Chu San." Zhou Jiaojiao struggled to emerge from behind the big tree and shouted to the man on the side of the road.
Chu San seemed to have heard a familiar voice and ran over, soon arriving in front of Zhou Jiaojiao. His mental age looked only five or six years old, with innocence and persistence in his eyes, but he looked very mature, undoubtedly a rough guy.
"My wife?"
"Yeah." Zhou Jiaojiao was a little uncomfortable with being stared at so intimately.
She lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Chu San, I'm going to the river."
"Carry me over there." She took a deep breath and said, it was mainly because of her body that she couldn't walk very far. Fortunately, Chu San came, otherwise she would have to suffer for a long time.
Chu San reached out and picked her up, as if she were a toy. He leaned close to Zhou Jiaojiao and seriously corrected her, "My dear, you have to call me husband. You can't call me Chu San like everyone else."
