"Mom, let's pack up the things we need to take first and leave the things we don't need. If we take too much, it will be inconvenient for us to travel on the road."

Yu Qingqing also felt that what the village chief said made sense. After all, they were going there to escape famine, not to travel.

There is no need to bring too many things with you, otherwise you may encounter many difficulties in the end.

“Qing’er is right. Madam, we went to the town to make a sickle and a knife. Qing’er is keeping them.

It is used for self-defense. I heard that there are refugees everywhere outside. It is still dangerous for us to follow the village chief to escape the famine."

Yu Qingshu also felt that he should bring the necessary things.

Everyone quickly started to get busy, and now the whole Shuihe Village was busy.

Everyone took advantage of the fact that it was not too dark yet and went to pump all the water out of the well.

However, the water from the well cannot be drunk immediately after it is drawn. Most of it is very turbid. Yu Qingqing's family also drew five buckets of water, and took all the water in the water tank with them.

Since there might be bacteria in the water, Yu Qingqing boiled the water and then filled the water bags.

"Qing'er, here are the mushrooms that were dried before, as well as "violet yedoensis, mint, and motherwort."

My wife has packed these herbs and put them here for you. Remember to take them with you, don’t forget.”

Hua Qinglu placed a package on a tattered table.

Yu Qingqing's home was rather simple, a thatched hut with only a dining table and a few stools, nothing else. Fortunately, there was no furniture or anything that needed to be brought.

"Husband, there are about 300 pancakes in total. Each of us can take a few with us, and the rest can be put in one place."

Hua Qinglu pointed at a pile of pancakes next to him and thought that it would not be good to make too many pancakes, as these would be enough to last them for a long time.

"Thank you for your hard work, my wife. I will move the remaining 400 kilograms of grain to the side of the ox cart first, and then move it up there tomorrow."

Yu Qingshu followed Yu Qinghai in moving bags of food, then fed the cows with water and put a large pile of grass that still looked a little green. No matter what, the cows could not be left hungry on the road.

Yu Qingqing looked at the pile of things in front of her and felt a little troubled. She didn't know whether she should tell him about the space, otherwise sooner or later, so many things would be targeted by others.

But if she told him, would she be exposed? This was another question. After being here for so long and feeling the love of this family, she was reluctant to let go.

"Dad, you and my brother will walk on both sides of the ox cart, and you should bring your knives.

Maybe it can deter those who are eyeing us covetously." Yu Qingqing thought she should remind her father.

"Don't worry, Qing'er, we have thought about this issue. We will leave some space for Xiao Ji to sit. Your sister and your mother will take turns sitting, and you will drive the ox cart.

We all walked next to the bullock cart so that we could have someone to look after us if we had any problems."

Yu Qingshu also felt that the safety issue was a major hidden danger. It seemed that he would have to discuss it with the village chief when the time came, as he had experienced it himself.

Those people can do anything for food. This is a big matter concerning the family and cannot be taken lightly.

After everything was arranged, Yu Qingqing started to eat, because they had to hurry on their way. No porridge was served tonight, and Hua Qinglu prepared a bowl of brown rice for everyone.

Then I stewed a pot of previously marinated roe deer meat with mushrooms.

Hua Qingji's mouth watered as he looked at the sumptuous meal in front of him. No one said anything more, they all finished their meal quietly, chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

Yu Yuanyuan still slept with Yu Qingqing. Yu Qingqing could only wait until she fell asleep and then slipped into the space.

In the village, almost every household went to bed late tonight. I don't know whether it was out of excitement or sadness, but probably both.

The air tonight was also extremely hot and muggy, and the temperature would not drop until very late. In the air, there was really no wind except for the heat.

The two big banyan trees on both sides of the village entrance have many yellow leaves due to the weather.

The banyan tree has been there for many years, and I don’t know if it will die this time due to lack of water. There is still no sound of birds singing on the banyan tree.

It seems that the birds are quite perceptive and know that this place is not suitable for survival, so they gave up their former home.

You hour, at the home of village chief He Qiang.

Because they had to flee the famine, the village chief and his family were sitting at the dinner table at this time, discussing what to do next.

The only person who could not sit still was He Lili, the ten-year-old daughter of the village chief. But she was just a child after all, so we just let her be.

"Boss, we are bringing so many people with us to escape the famine this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to manage them.

There are always a few troublemakers who won’t obey your arrangements, and if something goes wrong, we won’t be able to take responsibility.”

The village chief's wife, Wang Huahua, was also a little worried. Her husband had no problem managing the village, but they were going there to escape famine.

We are not going there for sightseeing. I heard there are refugees everywhere. It is not easy for everyone to reach the destination safely.

"Mother, you are right. The more people we have, the greater the responsibility.

We have no other choice. If we go together, we can always look after each other. It would be much more dangerous if we go alone.

And I will arrange someone to be responsible for safety, although there is no one who practices martial arts in the village.

But those who are strong and the hunters in the mountains can always take responsibility."

It seems that the village chief still has his own plans, so there is no need to panic.

"Dad, are we really going to flee the famine? And with so many people, are you really planning to take them all with you? It would be a huge burden to take so many people with you.

You don’t have the obligation to take others with you.” He Qiuyi vented his dissatisfaction on the side.

"What nonsense are you talking about, boy? As the head of the village, this is my responsibility.

Don’t let me hear you say that again, since we are walking together, we must unite.”

When Village Chief He Qiang heard his son say this, he felt very disappointed in him.

"Dad, I'm just talking, son knows." He Qiuyi was still quite afraid of his father, so he could only compromise unwillingly.

"That's good to know. Our village has always been united. If you do anything to destroy unity, I will not forgive you. Do you understand?"

He Qiuyi was startled by the village chief's stern voice. His father rarely got angry.

"I know, Dad. I was just saying that." He Qiuyi was not stupid. It would be fine if he admitted his mistake first.

Soon the whole family started to get busy again, making preparations for everything.

When Yu Qingqing saw the green in the space, her face was filled with joy.

The "treasure tree" that I planted has already bloomed and will probably bear fruit soon. The ones that bloomed early already have small fruits hanging on their heads.

"It seems that I will be able to harvest a hundred fruits soon, and my own Nine Poison Thunder Bombs" will finally be found.
