Chapter 889 Looking for Food
Jiang Xiaoxiao got up when it was just getting light.
The others were still fast asleep. How could these chosen ones have ever endured such suffering?
Last night, we struggled to light the fire until the second half of the night. We were worried about being hungry, so we tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. By the time we fell asleep, it was almost dawn. So now everyone is sleeping soundly.
The sound of Jiang Xiaoxiao standing up startled Wu Yang.
Wu Yang yawned, looked at the people around him who were sleeping soundly and rolled his eyes.
If bad guys came, they would sell people in the middle of the night without us even knowing it.
"What are you going to do?"
Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao walking away with the basin, he hurriedly asked.
"I'll go wash my face by the stream, then fetch a basin of water and boil some for everyone. It's already daybreak, so let's look around to see if we can find any wild fruits, vegetables, or something to eat.
Bai Xiao had no food either. We still had one day left. If we didn't eat something, I don't think we would be able to climb over the mountain today. And no one knew how many days it would take to climb over the mountain.
If we don’t find a way to be self-sufficient quickly, the days ahead will be tough. We can’t go hungry every day.”
Jiang Xiaoxiao naturally wanted to find a sufficient reason to take out the things in her space, but she couldn't take out anything else.
You should be able to find some vegetables or something, and with potatoes and sweet potatoes, these are definitely enough to fill you up.
I had originally thought of burying it a little in the soil when no one was paying attention, and then taking the opportunity to dig it out. This would be a legitimate reason, but I didn't expect Wu Yang to wake up now.
This is equivalent to adding one more person who is in the way.
"I'll go with you!"
When Wu Yang heard about eating, his stomach started to rumble like a drum.
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Then let's go and take a look."
The two went to the stream and washed their faces.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, I just saw a few small fish over there. How about this, we split up into two groups. You go and look for some wild fruits and vegetables nearby, and I'll try to catch some fish here.
Cooking fish soup counts, it's better than nothing."
Wu Yang was excited the moment he saw the fish. This was edible, and he could eat it alive.
The first time he realized he saw a fish, his saliva flowed rapidly.
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, "Okay, then you have to be careful."
Wu Yang's proposal is a godsend.
Jiang Xiaoxiao strolled into the woods nearby.
I am seriously looking for edible plants in the wild. After all, sweet potatoes and potatoes cannot appear out of thin air. At least I have to see wild ones so that I can put the buttons on them.
As a result, Jiang Xiaoxiao was happy.
I didn’t expect the harvest to be so big. I actually saw a bunch of sweet potatoes growing in the wild, and of course some yams.
The most important thing was that she saw several fruit trees with wild grapes, wild mulberries and the like.
These things can be eaten, at least they can supplement sugar and vitamins.
Jiang Xiaoxiao put down her backpack and started digging yams and sweet potatoes.
First, he put some sweet potatoes and potatoes into his backpack, as they were in his own space. Then he found a shovel and started digging seriously.
After all, I have to give everyone an explanation. It would be unacceptable if I don't turn this place over completely. Where did all these things come from?
However, with these sweet potatoes and potatoes, plus yams, grapes and mulberries, they probably have enough food for today. What makes Jiang Xiaoxiao even happier is that if they continue like this, they won't be afraid even if they have to climb the mountains for several days.
As long as there is water and food in the mountains, this problem can be easily solved.
I'm just a little confused. Could it be that these people from the Medicine God Association want to cultivate everyone's ability to survive in the wild?
But under normal circumstances, doctors have no conditions or opportunities to encounter such situations, and they are not doctors in a field hospital who need to survive in the wild.
Suddenly I remembered the so-called secret realm of Kunlun.
Could it be that the presidents of the eight major families of the Medicine God Association all know that in the so-called Kunlun Secret Realm, everyone is left to fend for themselves?
That’s why everyone needs to experience this kind of self-sufficient survival in the wild so that they will have the corresponding coping ability in the future!
Of course, it may also be a method of elimination where the fittest survive.
If you can’t figure it out for now, just put it aside. You will always know the final answer later anyway.
Those old-timers in the Medicine God Association might be hoping that someone will spy on them.
Things like cameras are not that advanced in this era.
Besides, I didn't find any cameras during my observation from yesterday to today.
Occasionally there are a few scattered around, and the area seen is not very large. Most of them are concentrated on this road up the mountain.
However, it cannot be ruled out that these people from the Medicine God Association have set up people to observe secretly in other aspects.
So you have to be careful when you do things.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was carrying a backpack and holding a washbasin in her hand.
I had just fetched a basin of water, planning to cook sweet potatoes and potatoes when I get home.
But now, in order to pick those wild grapes and mulberries, she poured out the water in the basin.
I could only use a washbasin to hold these fruits, as my bag was already full of yams, potatoes and sweet potatoes.
There are still a lot of them in the ground, but Jiang Xiaoxiao really doesn't have the ability to take them.
Fortunately, I put a lot of yams in my space.
There is always a way out.
"Wu Yang, Wu Yang!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao heard Bai Xiao’s shout.
"Stop yelling, you've scared all my fish away."
Wu Yang said unhappily, feeling so depressed that he couldn't suppress his inner sense of failure. He had wasted half a day here but didn't catch a single fish.
"Xiaoxiao, how is your place? Did you find anything to eat?"
Wu Yang saw Jiang Xiaoxiao holding a washbasin and standing there motionless from afar. He thought that Jiang Xiaoxiao was just like him and found nothing.
"Come and help me quickly. I found a lot of things. I just found yams, sweet potatoes, and potatoes in the woods over there. There are also wild grapes and mulberries I picked in this basin. They are all edible. Send these fruits back first and spread them on the big rock to dry. Then we can use the basin to collect some water.
I will wash the yams, potatoes and sweet potatoes by the stream, and we can cook them when we get back. Cook these things and put them in your bag or carry them with you, and use them as dry food on the road. This is our food for today. "
Jiang Xiaoxiao's words immediately attracted a group of people. It turned out that there were five or six classmates following Bai Xiao who had made a fire with them last night. After waking up in the morning, everyone suddenly found that Jiang Xiaoxiao and Wu Yang were missing, so everyone came out together to look for them.
I didn't expect there would be such a surprise.
Bai Xiao helped Jiang Xiaoxiao wash yams, potatoes and sweet potatoes by the stream.
The others quickly took the basins back and hung the fruits on the rocks to dry.
Then someone else came with a basin to fetch water.
Some people even went to the woods to pick up branches to ensure that they could have a delicious breakfast this morning.
You can eat something.
