The fact that Chen Dayou was possessed by a god was so shocking that everyone knew about it that day.
But only this group of people knew about it, and after knowing that they couldn't talk about it, no one dared to tell anyone else.
Of course, during this kind of plague period, no one wants to talk nonsense to outsiders.
Because there were too many people taking on the task, and it was all about food, the people in charge simply decided to take a day off the next day.
This news made everyone excited and they moved faster.
Wen Xiushui, who is the middleman, is now free.
After all, she asked Chen Dayou to find a few people to help. Uncle Wen was responsible for registration, and Li and Xu were responsible for delivery and acceptance.
The materials were delivered by the Chen Dayou brothers. Each of them was provided with 100 kilograms of food every day, plus 10 kilograms of water each.
The group of people who originally just wanted to earn food became more motivated after hearing that they could exchange their labor for water resources.
"We're not going to die of hunger or thirst, so we should fight for two more days."
"I worked so hard to earn so much food, only to be robbed on the road? I think it would be great if I could spare a day to work and earn food and water.
Every household, as long as they don't slack off, should be able to earn enough water and food for at least ten days. This is truly a living Bodhisattva."
The greedy man quickly agreed when he heard it. Indeed, in such a famine-stricken era, if every household carried too much water and food, they would really be robbed.
However, some families planned to work and earn food even if it meant staying up late.
The wealthy families who had paid tolls earlier had no food left when they came out.
Now that they have this opportunity, these people don't care about their previous rich life and just work hard. Even the former heads of the family like Lao Qian and Lao Li are now diligently weaving.
Since everyone had work to do, Xiushui had some free time. During this free time, she looked out over the vast forests and mountains, hoping to find treasure.
"Grandma, let's go to the mountains and try our luck. What if we find prey there?"
"But your birdman can't handle two of us, right? It's still okay for you and Heige, but you and I, huh? You're trying to tire the birdman to death!"
The old lady was tempted, but still worried that the mount would break down.
"Grandma, you need to be more open-minded. My own mount can only carry me and Brother Hei, but it can be hired.
Hey, we are the middleman now, why should we worry about those few points?"
The old lady immediately put on a smiling face and hugged her granddaughter, calling her "good girl" over and over again.
After thinking about it, she made up her mind.
"Bao, why don't we call your Fifth Aunt along? We're just hunting, and having her as an expert will help keep us safe.
As for other things, I just say that I have this ability. Chen Dayou can be possessed by a god, but I can't summon a divine bird."
Xiushui laughed out loud.
"Grandma, from now on, when our team reaches the destination, it feels like we've become a miracle-working team."
"Well, I'll tell her not to go out and talk nonsense. I hope we can get something good. I've been eating dried meat for the past few days and it's made me angry."
"Okay, grandma, then call my fifth aunt over, and we'll go for a walk around the neighborhood."
When Mrs. Li heard that they were going hunting, she stuffed the work into Haodaer's hands.
"I'll make you marry me if you dare to be lazy while delivering the grass..."
"Marry a wife! Mom, I've already told you this trick won't work on me. I'm just taking over your job. Go quickly. If you don't get some meat, you'll be letting your son down by replacing this job."
"You little bastard, if you don't have any meat, how can you expect me to cut off some of my flesh for you to eat?"
"That kid wouldn't dare. You should just go hunting. I'm not so perverted as to eat human flesh."
The mother and son joked for a few moments, then Li picked up her knife and arrow and left with Xiushui and his group.
There are also people who can hunt nearby, and it’s not that they don’t want to go.
However, compared to earning food, forget about the elusive and missing prey.
The food earned is food rations. Many families worked hard all night last night and saved up no less than 100 kilograms of food.
If they work hard for a day today, they might be able to save several hundred kilograms of food.
Thinking of the food they had received, their hands moved quickly, wishing they had ten hands.
Li Qingfang quickly caught up with the old lady and frowned when he saw Heige.
"Mom, we're not planning on going far, are we?"
"No, I plan to go further. But the premise is that you can't say anything if you see or hear anything later. And you absolutely can't mention it when you get back."
"Oh, I won't mention it, but if we go far, can we take Brother Hei with us? It's not that I look down on people, but it's mainly because it's dangerous in the mountains.
There are wild beasts and poisonous snakes, and Brother Hei is still too young."
What she said was the truth, so Brother Hei was not angry. He just grinned at her mysteriously.
"Fifth Aunt, I promise I won't hold you back. This trip into the mountains is just to broaden our horizons. Hehe, anyway, this kind of mysterious and fun trip must have me along."
"I don't really understand what this kid is saying."
Aunt Wu grumbled, but the old lady took her quickly into the mountains.
It was not until they saw the beautiful water in front that they held each of their hands.
"Hurry up and follow Xiushui."
"Xiushui runs really fast. Ah, what is this?"
When she saw the tall eagle suddenly jump out from behind Xiushui, she was so scared that she instinctively reached for the arrow.
"Don't be afraid, that's Xiu'er's mount. Don't scare Yingying, or I won't be able to protect you."
"What?"
Li Qingfang felt that she was hallucinating, or that the old lady was possessed by a demon.
She actually said that this bird with such a big head was for Xiu'er.
Wait, the bird really didn't attack anyone. Also, it tilted its head and looked at her with contempt. Is that contempt? Right!
How could a bird look at her with contempt?
Li Qingfang once again doubted her life.
"Mom, why do I feel like this bird...is looking down on me and thinks I can't beat it?"
"There's no doubt about it, you really can't beat Yingying."
"Mom, I'm from a hunter family. I'm very powerful."
"I said you can't beat Hawk Eagle. Well, our mounts are here too."
As he finished speaking, Li Qingfang saw a giant snake emerging from the woods through the grass.
The grass on both sides fell to the side in unison.
The snake head, as big as a steamer, was looking at her with its head held high, and its eyes also said: You mortals are too weak.
Even though Li Qingfang came from a hunting background and considered himself to be very extraordinary, he was now supporting the old lady with trembling legs.
"Mother...mother...mother, it's a big snake...it's a big snake...let's...let's run quickly..."
The old lady was prepared for this, but when she saw such a big snake, she was also frightened and her whole body turned cold.
Fortunately, she had taken precautions in advance, and she had strongly requested to requisition this mount.
So... I can still hold my composure and not panic...
