The men were all beaming with joy, and the baskets on their backs were all heavy. The most attractive thing was the prey they carried in their hands.

There were pheasants, rabbits, and a skinny wild boar.

When Shangguan Ruoli looked at the fat pheasants and rabbits, he smiled inwardly. Even wild animals in disaster years cannot become fat. Aren't they raised in space?

When they were traveling, they encountered wild game that they couldn't eat, so they kept it in the space. However, the wild boar was not from the space. It was quite thin, but there were water and plants in the mountains, so it was not so thin that it had no meat to eat.

Everyone was excited when they saw the game. They were even happier than during the Chinese New Year.

Shiro clapped his hands and spun around, "It's the New Year! It's the New Year! It's the New Year!"

The second aunt's dog, Shan'er, was running around in circles, "Eat meat, eat meat, it's time!"

I spun around until I fainted, and with a bang, I fell down. I didn’t cry even though it hurt. I stood up and continued spinning around, making my freshly washed hair disheveled.

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't help but laugh. This child is five years old. He still remembers him kneeling with his grandmother at the door of the big house, begging for food and drink. He couldn't even walk.

This escape made me more energetic.

Wulang sat on Shangguan Ruoli's lap, eating chestnuts like a little squirrel. His big eyes were confused and he raised his little face and asked in a sweet voice: "Mom, what is meat?"

Shangguan Ruoli felt sad, lowered his head and kissed Wu Lang, "You will know later."

When the child was three years old and could eat, the disaster was already severe. He couldn't even eat enough, let alone meat.

Wulang's eyes were shining with joy, and his little feet in rag shoes were swaying. Although my mother loved him very much in the past, she didn't kiss him often. Now she kisses him all the time. Oh, it's so embarrassing.

Dongming Ziyu strode over and put down the heavy basket on his back.

Wulang hurriedly ran over and raised the chestnuts in his hand to him, "Dad, look, it's delicious. You can try it."

Dongming Ziyu looked at it, smiled, touched his little head and said: "My dear son, daddy also picked a lot of this kind of fruit. I don't care if you eat it with the pigtails facing up."

As he said that, he also gave him a small tug on his head.

Wulang's eyes lit up, "Really?"

He quickly picked up the basket and looked inside, "Ah! There are so many thorny balls."

Shangguan Ruoli and Ling Yue also went over to take a look. There were not only chestnuts, but also hazelnuts, walnuts, sorbets, wild apples, potatoes, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, fungus, and wild vegetables.

The ones with good quality are from the space, and the ones with crooked melons and cracked dates are from the mountains.

Dongming Ziyu leaned into Shangguan Ruoli's ear and whispered: "I also picked two large Ganoderma lucidum and put them in the space warehouse."

There is a true saying that "you can rely on the mountain to eat the mountain". No matter how barren the mountain is, there are always unexpected gifts.

The women began to boil water and prepare to slaughter chickens, rabbits and wild boars, with smiles on their weathered faces.

Dongming Ziyu drank the water from the spiritual spring and rested for a while, then took everyone to fetch water.

Shangguan Ruoli asked Ling Yue to watch Wu Lang, take care of Rong Chuan and Er Lang, and also go to help.

Ling Yue took out four apples from her father's basket and wiped them with a handkerchief, one for each of the four of them.

Several other ya, a few men, and a few girls were gathered around their master's basket, picking out fruits to eat. Every family had something, and there was no difference between them.

Rong Chuan took a bite of the apple, his eyes lit up and he said, "It's so sweet! It turns out there are such sweet fruits in the mountains."

Ling Yue rolled her eyes and explained: "I heard that the fruits produced in dry years with little rain are sweeter than those produced in rainy years."

Wulang asked confusedly: "Why?"

Ling Yue organized her words and said: "Think about it, there is a spoon of sugar in a bowl, do you think it is sweeter if you put half the bowl of water in it, or fill it with water?"

Wulang tilted his little head and thought for a moment and said: "It's all sweet!"

Ling Yue: "..."

"Pfft!" Rong Chuan laughed, "Of course, the less water, the sweeter it will be."

Erlang also figured it out, "Yes, put a drop of water and a bowl of water. Naturally, a drop of water will be sweeter."

Wulang realized that he had said something wrong and felt embarrassed. He leaned on Ling Yue and nibbled the apple in small bites with his millet teeth.

In order not to be too obviously different from the fruits in the mountains, Dongming Ziyu only brought out small fruits, but Wulang couldn't eat more than one.

Ling Yue put her arms around his shoulders and said, "Can you just eat half of it? Save your stomach for meat later."

Wulang asked curiously: "Is the meat delicious?"

Ling Yue nodded, "It's delicious."

Erlang was already swallowing heavily, looking eagerly at the chickens, rabbits and wild boars that were about to be slaughtered.

But Rong Chuan looked calm and didn't seem to think it was rare.

Qian said with a heartache: "There is so much meat, it should be marinated and eaten slowly. Unfortunately, there is no salt."

Yes, so many people only have a little salt, so they usually save it and put a little bit in the porridge every time to increase their strength.

Therefore, no matter how reluctant you are to part with it, you can only eat this meat until noon tomorrow at most.

Li said: "Mom, we can cut the meat into small dices, fry it in oil, take it out and let it cool. In this weather, it won't spoil even if it is left for three days."

Chickens, rabbits and wild boars all have oil in them, and a lot of it can be refined.

Qian laughed and said, "This is a good idea, let's do it this way."

Dongming Ziyu came back from fetching water and said: "The smell of blood from slaughter and the smell of cooked meat will attract disaster victims and wild animals, so we have to patrol according to the usual shifts."

Upon hearing this, everyone smiled less and became more vigilant.

Dongming Ziyu said: "Light a circle of fire outside the camp, and the wild animals will not dare to approach it for fear of the fire."

Sanlang responded and took a group of children aged eight to eleven and two to collect firewood and make a fire.

Many victims came to the mountain to drink water, and the smell indeed attracted many victims. However, they saw that the group was large in number, and the strong laborers and half-grown men were even more energetic. They watched from a distance and swallowed, but they did not dare to

Come and grab it.

There were too many people, and they didn't share the meat lovingly. They told them that if they wanted to eat meat, they could go hunt for prey in the mountains.

However, with these disaster victims on the periphery, the wild animals did not dare to approach.

Qian took a group of women to cook lard and fry diced pork. He found an opportunity to secretly fill up half a bowl, stuffed it into Shangguan Ruoli's hands like a thief, and said with a breath: "Send it to Ling Yue."

Shangguan Ruoli: "..."

Is this deception?

Many people saw it, but because of the relationship between Dongming Ziyu and her, they all pretended not to see it and let them go.

Anyway, there are still so many, so it doesn’t matter if you give the host a few more bites. If it weren’t for Dongming Ziyu’s leadership and Shangguan Ruoli’s medical skills along the way, this group of people would never have been able to get here one by one.

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't bear to keep the face of so many people criticizing her mother-in-law, so she just brought the bowls to Ling Yue and the others, and secretly added some salt.

Dongming Ziyu saw this scene, helplessness and smile flashed in his eyes, and said: "We have found a lot of food. We will eat and drink tonight and tomorrow morning, and then set off."

Someone hesitated and said, "There is water and food here, why don't you leave?"
