The two of them took advantage of the fact that it was still early and took action quickly.
Although there are many dangers in the forest, it is actually relatively safe. As long as you don't accidentally provoke any huge and ferocious beasts, there will be no problem.
So, move carefully and pay attention to what's going on around you.
The cave was dry and refreshing, and no traces of poisonous snakes, insects, or ants were found, and there was no peculiar smell. The two felt relieved and went out together.
The setting sun was slowly sinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the rays of light slowly converged. Neither of them dared to go far. They picked up some firewood, pulled out some wormwood, and saw a lot of fruit on a wild plum tree.
I climbed up to pick some fruits and quickly returned to the cave.
Zhao Liya laughed and joked: "There are so many good things in the mountains. Alas, it's a pity that I don't have room to carry them with me!"
Hu Ling looked confused: "What space?"
Zhao Liya laughed loudly: "Nothing, nothing!"
Not every time-traveling woman can be equipped with storage space and unparalleled supplies. She has developed her own boxing and kicking skills.
After returning to the cave and putting down their things, and just about to light a fire, someone suddenly said "Huh!" in surprise, startling the two of them.
The two men suddenly turned their heads and looked at each other in confusion with the two strange men.
They were not paying attention for a moment and did not hear the approaching footsteps!
The two stood up, secretly on guard.
Hu Ling subconsciously blocked Zhao Liya behind him: "Are you - hunters in the mountains?"
The two people looked to be one in their mid-twenties and the other seventeen or eighteen years old, with good looks and clear eyes. They were wearing coarse cloth, short brown clothes, and their legs were tied. The younger one was carrying a basket on his back, and the older one was carrying a bow and arrows.
cylinder.
The younger one grinned: "We are not hunters in the mountains, we are from Yancun."
This tone seems to be quite proud of being a Yancun person?
Hu Ling and Zhao Liya subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Hu Ling was still hesitating whether to tell the truth, but Zhao Liya already smiled lightly and said: "What a coincidence, we are also from Yancun!"
The younger one raised his eyebrows in surprise and chuckled: "Oh, what a coincidence! I thought telling you my calendar would scare you away!"
Zhao Liya rolled her eyes: "Then you occupy the magpie's nest?"
The younger one laughed loudly: "Ah, I see, you are the new Zhao family, right?" He put down his backpack carelessly and gave Zhao Liya a thumbs up: "Your family are all pretty awesome."
Zhao Liya frowned slightly and glanced at him. Is this guy planning to stay here tonight?
Hu Ling's face became even more ugly. How could his adopted sister stay in a cave for the night with these two unknown men? Although the Zhao family had been defeated, it was not like this.
Before the two of them spoke, the older one clasped his fists at the two of them: "My name is Lin Mo, and this is my cousin Yu Xiaofang. It's getting late today, can you let us stay here for the night? We won't stay here for free, we are responsible.
We will take turns keeping vigil, and food will be provided.”
The polite words of rejection reached her lips and she swallowed them. Zhao Liya nodded readily: "Okay! Let's take turns together during the vigil."
It would be nice to have more people in this wilderness.
More importantly, she had inquired with Widow Qu before and knew about these two people.
The two of them are cousins, and they are from the same family. Lin Mo is hunting, and Yu Xiaofang is a doctor, but his medical skills are not very good. Basically no one comes to him for medical treatment. The two of them do not open up wasteland to plant crops, but plant some vegetable gardens. On weekdays,
Live by hunting and gathering herbs.
These two people are one of the families in Yancun that the Gu family does not mess with.
I think so, they both have nothing, the one with bare feet is not afraid of the one with shoes, and the other is a hunter, their strength is not weak, the Gu family can't afford to mess with them.
Zhao Liya thinks that those who don't sell the Gu family's accounts cannot be bad people...right?
Besides, he doesn't look like a bad guy.
Zhao Liya made the decision, and Hu Ling had no objection. He made up his mind that he would not sleep to death tonight and stay vigilant.
Since we agreed to spend the night together, we naturally had dinner together.
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling contributed fried rice, and Yu Xiaofang actually dug out two plump wild pheasants and a small copper hanging pot about the same size as the milk pot in her previous life from under a pile of messy herbs in her basket.
Just in time, fried rice was put into the pot to make porridge, and two pheasants were used to roast.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a bowl, you can just cut a piece of bamboo and use a bamboo tube as a bowl.
Zhao Liya also contributed salt and five-spice powder, and the roasted pheasant was extraordinarily fragrant and golden.
Yu Xiaofang took a sip of the fragrant rice porridge, took a bite of the roasted pheasant, and sighed with satisfaction: "This life is better than at home!"
Lin Mo glanced at him and was too lazy to answer.
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling couldn't help but make him amused.
With the process of sharing food, everyone subconsciously became closer.
Yu Xiaofang thought that they had come to the mountains to try their luck in picking mountain goods because they were having a hard time, and couldn't help but give some advice.
It is not that easy to make a fortune in the mountains and forests of Lingnan.
Zhao Liya talked about doing corvee in an understatement. Yu Xiaofang and Lin Mo exchanged glances. Yu Xiaofang sneered and said: "The three brothers and officials of the Gu family are still so disgusting, ha! But they can control the villagers. The government needs it.
These people are in charge of the village, so we turn a blind eye to many of their actions. We all have our lives cut off from us. As long as it doesn't cause big trouble out of control, the government won't care about it at all...
..."
Zhao Liya's heart moved. Does this mean that if we can kill them and replace them, life will be much easier and freer? Although it is not possible yet, anyone who has a dream is great. Work hard, and what if it comes true one day?
?
Zhao Liya smiled nonchalantly: "They sent us this errand. We had nothing to say, so we had to go into the mountains. Brother Lin, Brother Yu, is it easy to find this Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains?"
Yu Xiaofang was happy, "This is hard to say!"
Lin Mo: "There is Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains. Whether you can find it depends on your luck."
Yu Xiaofang: "Yes, I wish you good luck, hey!"
Lin Mo: "If we really can't find it, do you have any other ways to deal with it?"
Zhao Liya was helpless: "There is nothing I can do if I can't find it. I have to ask Gong Cao for help. If Gong Cao is not accommodating, I will think of other ways when the time comes."
Hu Ling added: "If you can't do it, just do hard labor!" If it's hard, work harder.
Lin Mo: "As long as you find Ganoderma lucidum, no matter how old it is, you can get what you pay for it. If you don't have Ganoderma lucidum, you can use other things, such as dendrobium, Gastrodia elata and other precious medicinal materials, or Tremella fungus, Hericium, chanterelles, etc.
, I can hand it over, and if I say more nice things, Yu Gongcao will be easy to talk to."
Yu Xiaofang also nodded: "Yes, yes, even the hard labor penalty will be lighter when the time comes. There are always some benefits. Or if you have some money left, you can offset it, but don't use enough money to cover all the punishment.
It’s too eye-catching and will easily make people miss you.”
"Thank you two brothers for reminding me!" Zhao Liya smiled gratefully and nodded.
