There was a lot of snow on the mountain, so it was not easy to walk on it, with one step deep and one step shallow.
Xiao Chiye didn't walk very fast, and his long legs were used to their full potential. He was carrying a backpack and holding a bow and arrow. He turned around and looked at Xia Wanniang behind him: "Why don't you go back and I'll go to the mountains by myself."
Xia Wanniang looked up at him, breathing heavily. She was still too weak.
She waved her hands to calm herself down: "No, I'll just take a break." Then she looked at the many things he was carrying: "Do you want to put them away?"
Xiao Chiye shook his head: "No, we occasionally run into people in this mountain."
Xia Wanniang understood as soon as she heard it. These things would not attract attention if left outside, but if she put them away, it would be bad if she took them out when she needed them and someone saw them.
Xiao Chiye stretched out his slender fingers in front of her: "I'll pull you."
Xia Wanniang looked at the fingers he stretched out. The knuckles were long and slender, and there were thin calluses on the fingers and the base of the thumb, which should be caused by years of archery or holding weapons.
She knew her current situation and reached out to hold his fingers.
His palm was not as warm as he had imagined, but instead felt a bit cool.
Xia Wanniang frowned slightly, grabbed his wrist, and took his pulse with her other hand.
Xiao Chiye didn't expect that she would suddenly take his pulse. He wanted to pull his hand back, but she held it tightly.
This seemingly weak little hand turned out to be quite strong. He did not pull it out forcefully for fear of hurting her.
Xia Wanniang raised her head and looked at Xiao Chiye: "Your body..."
Xiao Chiye sighed in his heart: "Mom doesn't know, and I hope you keep it a secret."
Xia Wanniang felt overwhelmed. He also had a chronic poison in his body, but this poison was different from Xiao Zisen's.
The poison in his body will slowly cool the body down, until the blood and body are frozen to death like ice.
Xia Wanniang didn't know what her luck was. In the family she married into, four out of five people were poisoned, and they were both extremely rare types of poison.
If her exchange space hadn't come with her, she would have been a widow in no time.
Xiao Chiye didn't hear her agree, and he felt a little anxious: "Wan Niang."
Xia Wanniang looked up at him and said, "I won't tell you. I will cure you."
Xiao Chiye was slightly stunned, then he laughed: "You don't even ask the reason."
Xia Wanniang held his hand tightly: "Didn't you also not ask me the reason?"
Xiao Chiye smiled, held her warm hand tightly, and pulled her towards the mountain: "There are not many animals in the forest in winter, but you can also encounter some wild animals that don't hibernate."
Xia Wanniang followed behind him and listened to him talk about the situation in the mountains. Although walking was a little difficult, they could still walk.
She saw a lot of animal footprints in one place, and stopped Xiao Chiye who was about to move forward: "Wait."
Xiao Chiye looked at the footprints she saw: "These are pheasants, they are not easy to catch."
Xia Wanniang looked around but found nothing useful: "Did you bring a rope?"
Xiao Chiye nodded, took out a bundle of ropes from the backpack and handed it to her: "What do you want to do?"
Xia Wanniang took the rope with a smile and said, "You'll know in a while." Then she took the rope and walked towards the place where there were dense footprints.
Xiao Chiye saw her holding a rope as if making a noose, arranging them irregularly on the snow, and then some unhusked wheat appeared out of thin air.
She scattered the wheat in the middle and around the noose, and then took some moldy hay to cover the exposed noose.
After Xia Wanniang finished all this, she checked it again. After she found no mistakes, she went back and said, "Let's go and look for the hundred-year-old cypress branches."
Xiao Chiye turned his head and looked at the place where she had just put the noose: "Is this all right?"
Xia Wanniang nodded: "Whether it can be done or not, we will know when we come down the mountain to take a look."
Xiao Chiye didn't say anything else, and the two continued walking up the mountain.
On the way, the two also met some villagers from the village. They all came to the mountains to collect firewood. A lot of firewood was needed in winter, and some people had prepared it early at home.
It’s just that winter came a little early this year, and some families ran out of firewood, so they had to go up the mountain to get some more.
