Chapter 5

Zhao Jin'er saw that her sister-in-law and aunt not only did not wait for her, but also walked faster, and in the blink of an eye they disappeared at the foot of the mountain.

I can’t help but wonder: My voice is not loud enough?

Fortunately, when he was at home, he often went into the mountains to dig wild vegetables and was familiar with the roads. Zhao Jin'er tightened the basket and went into the mountains alone.

All the mushrooms, fungus, fungus and wild vegetables on the mountainside had been wiped out, so Zhao Jin'er walked along the path made by the villagers. After walking for a while, he couldn't find a single gray vegetable.

I couldn't help but sigh, the people in Xiaogang Village are so hard-working, no wonder people from all over the country are willing to marry their daughters here.

Zhao Jin'er thought that this was not possible and that she had to go to places that no one had gone before in order to gain anything, so she turned in a direction that had not been stepped on before.

Afraid that he would not be able to find his way back, he took out his knife and made a mark on the tree at intervals.

Facts have proved that she was right. After walking for a while, she found a large piece of shepherd's purse.

Zhao Jiner was overjoyed.

Shepherd's purse is a good thing, and the dumplings are delicious when eaten cold or stir-fried.

If you can't eat it, you can still sell it in the town. Those city people who don't farm love to eat such a bite of game.

Zhao Jiner squatted on the ground and started digging. She was agile and her hands and feet were quick. After digging for more than an hour, she filled the basket.

There were some left in the corners, so I let them go and kept them for old age and sowing. After a while, they might be able to grow again.

I picked up the basket and was about to go home when suddenly a few crisp and elegant bird calls came from above my head.

When I looked up, I saw two strange birds with blue feathers and white bellies that looked like swallows but were much smaller than ordinary swallows flying through the air.

"Isn't this the swiftlet that dad mentioned? The nests of swiftlets are good things! I don't know where they build their nests. If you can dismantle a few and bring them back and stew them for Ah Xiu to eat, they will definitely be very helpful for his illness.

Big help.”

Zhao Jin'er then chased the swallow to look for it. After chasing for a while, the trees above his head became denser and denser. It was almost impossible to see the sky, and the swiftlet was nowhere to be seen.

When I looked back, I realized that I had run a long way and had forgotten to mark it.

Zhao Jin'er couldn't help but be a little scared. After all, it was a mountain, so don't get lost.

He didn't dare to chase the swallow anymore, so he turned around and walked back.

Unexpectedly, the more impatient it is, the worse it will be. After walking for a long time, I still couldn't find the place where I just dug the shepherd's purse, let alone the mark I left before.

The trees above our heads are getting thicker and thicker. Before, we could still see some sunlight, but now only a little light comes through the gaps in the leaves.

So lost!

Zhao Jin'er was so anxious that she neither dared to advance nor retreat, tears welling up in her eyes.

It's all my fault. I should have listened to my grandma and just picked it up on the mountainside. Why do I have to do this?

For such a basket of wild vegetables, if he really encountered a blind bear... Zhao Jin'er didn't dare to think about it.

Her father had taught her before that at times like this, she should stop running around and find a tree to climb up and wait for someone to save her.

Although he was afraid of being scolded when he went back, there was no other way. Zhao Jin'er found a big tree that was not easy to climb, just in case the jackals, tigers and leopards could follow him up the tree. He climbed up slowly and shivered while waiting for his family.

Come and find.

I didn't know how long I waited, but I was so hungry that my chest pressed against my back, when I heard a few rapid footsteps in the forest.

Zhao Jiner was refreshed.

Finally someone is here!

Just when I was about to call for help, I realized that it was a human instead of a wolf chasing a fox!

The wolf was so ferocious that he quickly knocked the fox down and gave him a bite on the neck.

The fox was struggling to the death. He probably knew that he was outmatched and used his ultimate move before dying.

As soon as his tail was raised, the whole forest was suddenly filled with an indescribable... irritation...

The wolf was about to feast, but unexpectedly, the smell penetrated his nose and made him sneeze twice.

He was probably thinking that the fox didn't have much meat, but it still smelled so bad. He bit into it and soiled Noble's mouth. He turned around twice in anger and ran away.

Zhao Jin'er who was in the tree was almost fainted by the smoke. He took off his coat, tied his nose tightly and hugged the trunk to avoid falling off.

I spent the day like this and squatted in the tree for another hour, but no one came.

Fortunately, the anger released by the fox was not only very lethal, but also long-lasting. For more than an hour, no more ferocious beasts appeared.

Zhao Jin'er was tired of waiting. She thought that she was just a child bride who had just been bought by the Qin family. She got lost in the mountains and forests, and they probably wouldn't take the risk to find her.

If we keep waiting like this, by the time it gets dark, we will either starve to death or be frightened to death.

Gritting his teeth, he slipped down from the tree.

It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on heaven and earth.

The fox was still full of strong arrogance. Zhao Jin'er thought that this arrogance would make the wolves run away, and maybe carrying it with him would keep him safe, so he tied his nose tighter and picked up the fox with a look of disgust.

Throw it into the basket.

Accompanied by Xuntian's arrogance all the way, this time he actually found the original path.

Zhao Jin'er didn't dare to waste a moment and followed the marks back to the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the village not far away shrouded in sunset and seeing bursts of smoke rising from the cooking pots, I almost cried.

Survive the catastrophe!

After jogging all the way to the village entrance, I saw Mrs. Qin standing under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, walking back and forth.

"Milk!"
