The other villagers also agreed, and even Widow Sun didn't make a fuss this time.
After a brief discussion, the village chief announced, "Everyone in Qingshan Village, except the elderly and children, will go out to dig yams tomorrow at 4:00 AM. Return in the evening with dry food, baskets, backpacks, and sacks. Xiao Ba and Yu Chen will lead the ten-man escort team, assisted by Zhang the Hunter. Bring back as much food as possible, and we'll divide it up per person. Those under ten will receive half the amount."
Everyone had no objection and went home with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety.
The next day, at noon, Gu Xinran and the villagers arrived at their destination.
When everyone saw the large field of yam, they smiled happily and all the fatigue from climbing the mountain was relieved.
At the command of Village Chief Li, everyone started working enthusiastically.
No one has set foot in the deep mountains for a long time. The soil is fertile and easy to dig. The yams are big and easy to dig. Everyone is like a mouse falling into a rice jar.
On the way up the mountain, we saw some pheasants and rabbits, but no wild boars or tigers. Perhaps they were scared away by the group of hundreds, or perhaps they were because we had raided the wild boar den last time. This was good news for the villagers.
After Gu Xinran led the way, he followed the guard team and spread out to the surrounding areas with the yam field as the center, catching whatever they saw and driving them away.

Gu Xinran came to the river where she rescued Xiaoba last time and found that the river water in the deep mountains was much shallower, and the narrowest part was only one or two meters.
Suddenly I saw a lot of small fish in it, now I have something to do!
Gu Xinran found Big Brother, Xiao Ba, and Xiao Kang. "Do you see that creek? I just found some big fish. We can catch some fish. Do you know how to make a rattan net?"
Xiaokang looked at the stream and said, "I know how to make a rattan net, but are there any big fish here? The holes in the rattan net are too big to catch small fish."
Brother Gu and Xiao Ba have unconditional trust in Gu Xinran.
They have to witness a miracle to be motivated.
Gu Xinran took out the dry biscuit he carried with him, broke off a small piece, secretly added two drops of spiritual spring water, and threw it into the stream.
Before long, many fish swam over and said, "Brother Xiaokang, come and see!"
