There was sufficient food prepared, and firewood was also prepared to be used for the next ten days.
However, when I woke up the next day, it was not raining.
Although this was not what they expected, as long as it didn't rain, they would continue to go out to look for food and firewood.
Anyway, this is not too much.
So after breakfast, Lu Changge, Li Tugen and others went out again.
As usual, Leng Yan and Leng Shuang stayed behind to guard the cave.
This time, Lu Changge and Li Tugen went all the way down the mountain to search and see what the situation was like down there.
"Uncle Lu, the location of the flood seems to have changed." Li Tugen looked around and came to this conclusion.
"It's raining for so many days, how can it not change?" said Li Xiaomin on the side.
"Uncle Lu, do you think the outside is flooded?" Li Tugen asked again.
"The higher ground won't be flooded." Lu Changge replied, turned around and walked up the mountain. "Let's go."
"Ah? Oh." Li Tugen and Li Xiaomin hurriedly followed.
After seeing the situation at the foot of the mountain, Li Tugen and his friends continued to look for food.
As noon approached, the sky suddenly darkened and soon it began to rain.
Seeing this, Lu Changge and others quickly quickened their pace and went back.
Not long after we entered the cave, heavy rain began to fall.
Then, the heavy rain continued for half a month without stopping.
Fortunately, they had gone out and found a lot of things before, enough to deal with it.
The heavy rain continued until the end of July. Counting the days, it rained for almost eighteen days except today.
Heavy rains began to fall in early June and now it is the end of July and the beginning of August, which means it has been raining for two months.
[System, will the rainstorm only last for three months?] Lu Changge called out to the system and asked.
[This is the original plot.] The system confirmed.
[Original plot…what about now?]
[It’s unknown now. It may end early or it may be delayed.]
[Because of the emperor of Fenglai Kingdom?] Lu Changge asked.
[Yes.] The system replied.
The emperor of Fenglai Kingdom was tied to a system and had made a series of changes that led to the flood coming early.
Therefore, the plot of the flood story world has now become unknown.
However, seeing that there was suddenly an extra energy bar in its system energy tank, the system felt that the flood should be able to end early.
After entering August, the amount of rainfall begins to decrease.
Moreover, the number of days with continuous rainfall also dropped from ten days to five or six days, and finally to one or two days.
The number of days between the periods is also gradually getting longer.
Seeing these changes, everyone realized that the rain disaster must be coming to an end.
Just when everyone's face was filled with smiles, San Ya caught a cold.
Children's physical constitution is inherently worse than that of adults.
We have lived in the cave for more than two months, and it has been raining all day, so we haven't been able to see the sun for a long time.
Getting sick is inevitable.
Lu Changge remembers that when a child is sick with a cold, if he does not take precautions, it can easily spread the infection to other children.
So I mentioned it to Li Xiaomin.
However, on the third and fourth days, as expected, they were all infected.
Even Erbao was not spared.
[System, is the medicine you gave me ineffective?] Li Tugen frowned.
[This is not a problem with the medicine.] The soft and cute system said.
"If it's not medicine, then what is it? If you are sick, can't you just take medicine and get better?" Li Xiaomin asked anxiously.
Her brother and sister also took medicine, but their faces still turned red when they coughed.
This left Li Xiaomin at a loss as to what to do.
"Children should get more sun exposure. You have lived in the cave for more than two months. It's good that they are only getting sick now." The soft and cute system explained.
[Sunbathing? We couldn't do anything because it was raining before... What should we do now? Is it too late to sunbathe now?] Li Xiaomin asked again.
It is now mid-August and the duration of rainfall has become shorter, with the sun coming out every one or two days.
According to this trend, the rain disaster should end by the end of August.
[It’s okay to sunbathe now, but I suggest you stop living in this cave. Living in it for too long is not good for the development of children, especially those who are only a few months old.]
The soft and cute system said that this specifically refers to the second baby of Lu Changge's family.
"Uncle Lu, what should we do?" Li Xiaomin looked at Uncle Lu who had been silent from the beginning.
"Instead of living in a cave...how about we cut down some trees and build some wooden houses?" Li Tugen thought for a moment and suggested.
"No, let's go down the mountain." Lu Changge shook his head.
"Go down the mountain, but isn't the entire mountain flooded? Where should we go down the mountain?"
[System, what is the situation outside now?] Lu Changge asked.
[Ah? I don't know.] The system said in bewilderment when it heard the host cue it.
[I'm not asking you, I'm asking your wife.] Lu Changge glanced at his salted fish system in silence.
Hearing the words "your wife", the soft and cute system felt a little happy and took the initiative to answer the questions of its beloved host.
[The situation outside is much better than a month ago. The emperor of Fenglai has sent several groups of officials to various places to solve the flood problem.]
"But even so, the road down the mountain is flooded. Should we wait a little longer?" Li Tugen frowned slightly.
"No need to wait, we'll go by water."
As Lu Changge spoke, he called Er Teng over.
[Er Teng, go find out where bamboo grows on this mountain.]
[Okay, Master.] Er Teng responded and left.
"If we go by water, do we need to build a boat?" Li Xiaomin asked, "How do we build a boat?"
"We don't need to make a boat, we can make a bamboo raft." Li Tugen on the side thought for a moment and said.
"Yeah." Lu Changge nodded.
Seeing that Uncle Lu agreed with Li Tugen about making bamboo rafts, Li Xiaomin also thought that bamboo rafts were feasible.
"Then let's go look for bamboo this afternoon."
Lu Changge and the other two returned with the backpacks on their backs and told the other people in the cave about their decision.
"Then let's leave. It's raining all the time anyway." Su Qingyun was the first to agree without thinking.
Anyway, the decisions made by her husband must have been carefully considered.
"I also think it's time to go down the mountain." Feng Xunyuan nodded.
This little prince and this little prince Jinbao have been missing for so long. If they don't go out, his brother will probably go crazy.
All four families agreed, so they went down the mountain.
"Then let's go find bamboo to make a raft in the afternoon. If things go well, we can leave tomorrow afternoon." Li Tugen said when he saw that they all agreed.
"Okay, then I'll go cook first." Li Xiaomin entered the cave carrying a bamboo basket.
After discussing the matter, everyone went their separate ways.
Lu Changge took Erbao from his wife's arms, looked down at him, and asked, "How is Erbao today?"
"I didn't have a good appetite. I only drank milk and ate a few mouthfuls of rice porridge."
Su Qingyun felt a little distressed as she looked at Erbao, whose brows were wrinkled with discomfort even when he was sleeping.
"Where's Tuanzi?"
"It's the same old thing, but I don't cough any more."
"Don't worry, we'll go see a doctor after we get down the mountain." Seeing his wife looking worried, Lu Changge spoke to comfort her.
"Um."
At noon, I cooked wild vegetable porridge for the sick children.
The adults' meals remained the same.
After dinner, Er Teng also came back with news.
After lunch, Lu Changge took Li Tugen and his grandson, Li Xiaomin and her brother and sister, Leng Yan and Yuan Fu away to look for Zhuzi.
Leng Shuang stayed and guarded the cave with Dahei and Erhei.
As for bamboo rafts, Lu Changge planned to make four bamboo rafts, which was just enough for one family to form a unit.
If there are more people, move one or two people to the area with fewer people.
The bamboo forest grows exactly halfway up the mountain. A few minutes' walk down will bring you to the flooded surface.
Find the bamboo. Those who have machetes will be responsible for cutting the bamboo, while those who don’t have will go find vines to make ropes.
In terms of the toughness of vines, the two vines are second to none, and no vine dares to claim to be first.
So, Er Teng reluctantly contributed some canes to them.
Because bamboo is easy to find and making bamboo rafts does not require any skills.
Soon, the four bamboo rafts were ready.
After the bamboo raft is made, the problem is where to put it.
"Uncle Lu, should we leave the bamboo raft here or carry it back?"
Li Tugen looked at the bamboo raft that was more than enough for him to lie on, thought for a moment and said, "Why not just leave it here? No one will steal it."
It takes too much effort to carry this back.
"Carry it back." Lu Changge and Leng Yan said one after another.
"Ah?" Seeing Uncle Lu and Jin Bao's guards say this, Li Tugen nodded blankly and said, "Then...then carry it back."
This bamboo raft is indeed a bit big and heavy.
In the end, Lu Changge and Leng Yan each carried two back.
After their figures disappeared, a man with three scars on his face limped out from behind a big tree in front of the bamboo forest.
The man looked in the direction where the people left, and then looked at the remaining bamboo and bamboo leaves.
Then he turned and walked away.
The bamboo raft is ready, and the original plan to leave in the afternoon has been changed to leaving tomorrow morning.
After returning, except for Li Xiaomin, Grandpa Li and Su Qingyun who were cooking, everyone else started to pack up.
When taking a bamboo raft, you naturally cannot bring too much luggage, so you have to give up some things.
Fortunately, Lu Changge and Li Tugen had a system that could secretly put the things in.
The next morning, everyone got up early.
Li Xiaomin cooked the remaining food, and after breakfast, everyone packed up and set off.
Because they had to carry the bamboo raft down the mountain and it wasn't raining, the children walked and followed.
The second baby is almost nine months old, and Su Qingyun cannot carry this weight when carrying him down the mountain.
In the end, it was Lu Changge who tied it to his chest.
Finally it was time to leave. The little guys chattered as they walked, looking very excited.
