They kept walking and the smell dissipated quickly, so they didn't worry about being discovered.
Yun Xi nodded in agreement, but was thinking about when he would be able to eat those packets of snail noodles.
At dawn the next day, every family was preparing food. After fleeing for so long, they had almost consumed all the food. Apart from the yam powder they had made before, the Liu family had nothing else.
Fortunately, no one is picky, so just eat what you have at this time.
All the yam powder was made into pancakes, which had a light and refreshing fragrance, which was quite pleasant. However, the remaining amount was eaten open and was enough for three meals at most.
Fortunately, the drought in this mountain forest does not seem to be serious, so I think we can find food in it.
Yunxi tied up her legs and shoes again, and put two mosquito repellent bracelets collected in the space on her feet and hands. In addition, she also sprayed mosquito repellent.
Thanks to the girl who is very concerned about mosquito repellent, she now has enough mosquito repellent. Although it may not be effective against some bugs, it may repel some of them.
She improved Daddy Liu's medicine bag by comparing it with the formula in the book, and after going into the mountains, she planned to make some more, which can repel snakes and insects.
After everything was prepared, everyone walked up the mountain one after another. This time, Liu Dashu and Liu Silang took the lead, followed by Liu Sanye's two sons. They mainly opened roads and drove away the creatures in the grass.
Liu Xingzhi stood in the middle to help everyone!
In line with everyone's guesses, the humidity in the mountains is quite high, and there is obviously more water vapor than outside. Presumably, we should be able to find water sources. As long as there is water, we can find food.
This discovery made everyone feel a lot better!
After walking for half a day, the vegetation became denser and denser, the air became cooler and cooler, and the older people had begun to put on more clothes.
Liu Xingzhi found a relatively flat place and arranged for the women to pack things and prepare to eat. The men were divided into two teams, with one pair guarding here and the other pair hunting with him.
Yun Xi followed Mrs. Liu to look for wild vegetables nearby. Some of the wild vegetables on the periphery should have been dug up by previous people. There are only some hidden places where there will be more.
The two of them were digging while walking, and accidentally became separated from the crowd.
At this moment, Yun Xi suddenly moved his nose slightly and looked at the bushes on one side. There was an obvious smell of blood there. Was it a beast or a human?
But before she could react, several men in black emerged from the bushes and rushed towards Yun Xi and the others.
Yun Xi didn't move. The opponent's speed was too fast, and she couldn't handle it as someone who knew a few martial arts fists.
This is the outskirts, not far from the foot of the mountain. A large group of them went up the mountain without hiding their whereabouts. The other party was hiding here, seemingly to take advantage of them.
No matter what they want to do, as long as it is useful, they will not be killed!
But Mrs. Liu didn't think so much. When she was caught, she immediately wanted to scream and struggled hard. The man in black seemed helpless and knocked him unconscious with a knife.
Yun Xi looked at the bushes, saying nothing or moving, just standing quietly.
Speaking of which, the aura of these people gave her a sense of intimacy, the iron-blooded feeling, as if they were soldiers. But these people were obviously not the real owners. Who could they be who could be protected by people from the army?
Before she could wait too long, a man of fifteen or sixteen years old came out. He was wearing a white satin gown, holding a paper fan in his hand, and a warm jade pendant hanging under his gold belt. He looked like a gentleman.
He has a clear and handsome appearance, although he is a bit pale, but he still cannot hide his nobility.
Next to him, there was a young boy of about the same age, with red and white lips and a male-female appearance, who was staring at Yun Xi fiercely.
"How dare you stare at our master!" Seeing Yun Xi's eyes fixed on the man in white, the boy shouted angrily.
Perhaps because there was no murderous intent in the man, Yun Xi gradually calmed down, pushed away the knife that the man in black was pointing at her, and said with a smile: "You look like this, so people will look at you. Isn't it possible that all the people who see your father,
You have to close your eyes!"
The young man in white waved his hands to the young man, cupped his fists and said, "Madam, please don't be offended. I am Qi Heng, a native of the capital. I am planning to return to the capital across the mountains and forests. I don't want to disturb my lady, so please forgive me!"
"
"Sir, she's just a village girl, why should she be so polite to her!" The boy muttered, and then he shut up when he saw his father's face turning cold.
Yun Xi looked the young man in white up and down, and suddenly said: "Since you know it's disturbing, just leave on your own! The young master asked someone to knock my mother-in-law unconscious, and then said something like this, which made me doubt the young master's purpose!
With the young master's family background, I think I can get enough money to cover the expenses. Let's leave through the city gate!
No matter how bad it is, it’s okay to go to Fengwei Mountain for seven taels of silver!
He doesn't take the easy road, but the young master chooses the most difficult road. It's not normal no matter how you look at it.
So what does the young master want to get from us by blocking us?"
A noble young master, accompanied by a servant and bodyguard, was obviously injured, but still wanted to walk through the mountains and forests. This status was obviously unusual.
Hearing what she said, the man in white was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I can't hide it from Madam, but I want to find Madam and the villagers to take us out of the mountain. I will thank you very much!"
Yun Xi didn't answer. She squatted on the ground and pricked Mrs. Liu with a silver needle. Then she saw Mrs. Liu slowly wake up.
Seeing her using the needle so skillfully, the expression of the man in white changed slightly.
"Mom, call Sanlang here and tell him that there is a business to discuss!" Yun Xi helped the person up and ordered Mrs. Liu: "Don't bring too many people, just let Sanlang come!"
"You go and shout, I'm a hostage here!" Mrs. Liu saw the surrounding situation clearly, shook her head repeatedly, and looked at several people with wary eyes.
"Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine!" Yun Xi patted her hand comfortingly. These guards were obviously very skilled. If they had tried to kill them, the entire Liujia Village would have died long ago!
Since the other party has not taken action, it means that these people are valuable, and they may be able to obtain good benefits without angering them.
Mrs. Liu saw that she was determined and that the young master had no intention of stopping her. She thought for a moment, turned around and ran back. She was old, and staying here would be a burden, so she might as well call someone!
"Ma'am, it's really settled, so you're not afraid of me taking action?" Qi Heng looked at Yun Xi curiously. Although her clothes were shabby, she could still tell that she was a delicate beauty. And this beauty seemed to have medical skills!
"Then you have to be able to take action! If the young master's injury is delayed any longer, I'm afraid he will be close to death! I'm right!" Yun Xi raised his chin, looking like a master, and complained in his heart.
If there was no space, she would have run away long ago, but she stayed here because she was sure nothing would happen.
