On the way to escape from natural disasters: She went crazy with space

Yang Liuqing strode over with Lu Yaoyao in her arms in surprise. Lu Qingqing had already peeled off the corn husks, revealing the plump yellow corn kernels inside.

Yang Liuqing put Yaoyao down, took it, and said with a puzzled look on his face:

"It's strange. The crops in Phoenix City were all uprooted long ago. Why didn't the disaster victims in Rong County take back the corn and let it rot in the fields?"

Lu Qingqing said thoughtfully: "Rong County is closer to the north, so it was not affected much. Maybe the snow came too quickly, and the people were frozen to death before they could get back."

"Corn is durable and can keep people full. With it, we won't have to worry about having nothing to eat when we go north. But there are only a few of us, so the weight we can carry is limited." When Land Rover saw that it was corn, his eyes lit up and he immediately thought of its great use.

Lu Yuanzheng also interrupted at the right time: "Dad, have you forgotten that we still have a horse? We'll make a sack out of oilcloth and put it on the horse's back. It can carry as much as it wants!"

"Yes, yes, there's this one too!" Land Rover's frown suddenly relaxed.

The black horse next to it seemed to understand, raised its head and neighed softly in protest.

However, its protests were ineffective.

The father and son were already excitedly cracking ice and picking corn.

However, after breaking open a large area of ​​ice, they only harvested twenty corns, and they were relatively small, not as big as the two in Lu Qingqing's hands.

It seemed that the crops had already been harvested, and there were only a few left. Before they had time to collect them, the snow and frost came.

The family of five worked for two hours and searched almost the entire area.

In total, we harvested about 100 kilograms of corn, some big and some small. Overall, it was pretty good.

Land Rover quickly put them on the horse's back and hurried on his way.

When they were knocking on the ice just now, they clearly felt that many of the ice cubes had broken apart without even having to knock on them.

It's heating up again.

At this time, they also clearly felt that the temperature had risen a lot, so they took off their thick cotton-padded jackets and put on thin cotton clothes.

While everyone was busy, Lu Qingqing had unknowingly collected a lot of ice cubes and stored them in the space.

But it was still far from enough. She would need to collect more as she would hurry on her journey.

Lu Qingqing was afraid that Lu Yaoyao would be tired, so she quickly put her on the horse's back, but the little girl was afraid.

"Sister, I'm scared." Lu Yaoyao clamped her legs around the horse's belly and lay on its back, but she was shaking with fear.

Lu Qingqing didn't dare to force her and quickly carried her down to the ground.

The little girl breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she landed.

Are you that scared?

However, they did not know how to ride a horse and had no experience of sitting on horseback, so they really had no way of experiencing the feeling of having their feet off the ground.

The ice is difficult to walk on now, and I don’t dare to learn to ride a horse now, so I can only lead the horse.

The icy surface of the country road was very flat. Occasionally, there would be a few branches growing across the road in front, which were cut off with a single knife by my second uncle who was walking in front.

The ground was flat and open on both sides, and they walked quickly, but it became hotter and hotter as they walked.

After lunch at noon, they walked for about an hour and suddenly felt hot.

Now, it was so hot that they took off their thin cotton coats and only wore a thin long gown.

"It's getting hot too quickly in this weather." Yang Liuqing muttered as he gave everyone a sweat towel to wipe their sweat.

"I'm afraid the heat won't stop yet. Let's go a little further and see if there's a place to stay. The temperature is going to get even hotter tonight."

Land Rover thought that the freezing snow would come at any time, and was afraid that the heat would suddenly break out at night.

They are now exposed, and it would be bad if they get heat-injured or something else happens.

Seeing that her second uncle was becoming more and more understanding, Lu Qingqing curled her lips slightly and walked towards Lu Yuanzheng behind her.

"Brother, you go to the front and lead the horse, I'll watch from behind."

It was getting hot too quickly, and she wanted to walk behind and collect more ice into the space.

Lu Yuanzheng thought she was tired from leading the horse, so he immediately handed the backpack to her, but took away half of the things inside so that she wouldn't have to carry such a heavy load!

Lu Qingqing felt warm in her heart. She put the backpack on her shoulders and took the machete in her hand, keeping alert. As she walked, she quietly swept away all the ice on the ground!

In a short while, she had stored up 200,000 kilograms of ice in the space.

Lu Qingqing doesn't know how fast the ice melts?

I don’t know how long these ice cubes can be used, so I can only stockpile as much as possible.

They walked from noon to the early evening, and Lu Qingqing's space had stored one million kilograms of ice.

The temperature at this moment was so hot that you could hear the cheerful singing of the streams flowing in the nearby valleys from afar.

This is the ice melting into water quickly.

But they still hadn't found a place to stay.

After the first quarter of the You hour, the sky will darken faster and it will no longer be suitable to travel.

Lu Qingqing took out the map and found that they had left Lancheng and arrived at the border between the two cities.

After walking another fifty miles, which would only take one day, they would enter the jurisdiction of Yongquanzhou.

Looking at the map again, the road ahead is flat and open, and there are no dilapidated temples or huts to stay overnight.

They stopped traveling and found a place with relatively high terrain to spend the night, and then continued their journey at dawn the next day.

They already have rich experience in using the ground as a bed and the sky as a blanket to sleep at night!

Yang Liuqing took out three pieces of oilcloth and spread them on the ground, then used firewood to prop up the four corners, and hung up four more pieces of oilcloth. Finally, a tent that could accommodate five or six people was set up.

After the tent was set up, Second Aunt was careful and took three small oilcloths to make three small compartments inside, so that she, her cousin and Yaoyao each had their own private space.

Second Aunt was busy setting up the tent, while Lu Qingqing and her second uncle and cousin were busy with safety precautions outside.

Fearing that there might be wild animals nearby, they took firewood and surrounded the tent twice in dense circles. Then they set up roadblocks and traps in every corner within two meters of the tent, so that if anyone came to attack, they would be discovered immediately.

After finishing all these, everyone was sweating profusely.

By this time, the sky was completely dark and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Yang Liuqing brought two oil lamps and lit them up, and the area within ten feet of the tent suddenly became as bright as day!

Lu Qingqing was preparing dinner. Everyone was exhausted, but they had good appetites.

There was still a large piece of wild boar meat in stock, so Lu Qingqing cut three of them to make rib soup, and also added six stalks of freshly picked corn to make corn and pork rib soup.

There was still a lot of purslane that I picked a few days ago, so I stir-fried it with lard to make a vegetarian dish.

There were also three salted fish weighing nine pounds each, and Lu Qingqing took one.

To make fish soup, chop the fish head with double peppers and the middle part of the fish body, pick out the bones, add some wild yams, wild mushrooms, bamboo shoots, amaranth, and corn, and cook them together to make salted fish and vegetable stew.

The fish tail part is made into braised fish tail.

While fleeing from famine, Lu Qingqing's cooking speed became more and more efficient. She managed to prepare so many dishes in just one hour.

The family was sitting on the ground, taking a sip of the rich corn and pork ribs soup, when they suddenly heard a swishing sound coming from nearby!
