In the book, I was fed by my sister

"Cuckoo-Cuckoo"

After noon, the call of the great cuckoo became more shrill and loud, and its call made people more restless in the hot summer.

"Song Li, Song Li." The clear voices of little girls rang out outside the Song family's yard.

Song Ran heard the voice, walked over and opened the gate, and saw the little girl leaning against the door frame. She smiled and said, "It's Li Zi!" Then, she turned to Song Li who was lying on the chair and said, "Little darling, your friend is here to play with you."

Li Zi also saw Song Li lying on the chair, and she waved to Song Li enthusiastically. Then, she asked Song Ran, "Sister Ran Ran, can I play with Song Li?"

"Of course you can. Come in and have a bowl of water first. You look so red in the face." Song Ran wiped Li Zi's forehead with a handkerchief. In this weather, even dogs know to rest in the shade. Only children of this age can run around outside.

Song Li took a look at the fat girl and thought that this was an opportunity to go out alone. She must go to the mountains again. However, yesterday's experience made her remember that she had to avoid every adult in the village.

Li Zi looked at Song Li, took out half a pancake from his arms, and said, "I brought you some pancakes."

Song Li remembered that the last time she saw her, she was also sharing cakes with other girls.

Seeing that his younger sister was not welcoming, Song Ran went into the house, grabbed a handful of peanut candy, stuffed it into the arms of his younger sister and Li Zi, pushed the two children out of the yard, and said, "Go play, and remember to go home for dinner when you see the cows coming home."

After leaving the house, the fat girl named Li Zi put the cake in Song Li's hand. Song Li looked at the wrinkled cake in her hand. She was very familiar with the behavior of using food to please others. In the end times, when the weak need to go to a city-state to avoid suspicion, they often ask for the protection of the strong and use the remaining food on their bodies to trade. If you are lucky, you can get charity, but if you are unlucky, you may become food.

Song Li took the biscuit and chewed it twice. It was a little dry and not fragrant enough. She then stuffed the sticky peanut candy in her arms, which had melted due to the hot weather, into Li Zi's pocket. She currently needed a "friend" who lived in Lihua Village to show her the way.

"Thank you!" Li Zi was so excited when she received the peanut candy. This was the first time she received candy from someone else. She asked Song Li carefully, "Are we friends?"

Song Li smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, it can be."

"Great, let's play together. I saw you beat Guanzi yesterday. You are so awesome." After Li Rongrong went home crying yesterday, she did not leave. As long as she didn't make noise and didn't play around the big banyan tree, Li Guan and the others would not embarrass her. So, she saw the scene where Song Li taught Li Guan a lesson.

In Lihua Village, there were no children under ten who could beat Li Guan. Those over ten were either studying or working in the fields, so no one had time to care about them. Li Zi felt that she had found a savior, someone who was not accepted by Li Rongrong and the others, but could beat Li Guan.

Song Li asked, "Are you familiar with Lihua Village?"

"Cooked!"

"Do you know how to get to Wushan without being discovered?"

"Know!"

"Then take me there."

"Ah?" Li Zi's enthusiasm was suddenly defeated. She hesitated and said, "But mother said that Wushan is very dangerous and children can't go there alone."

"Don't you think I'm awesome?"

"But..." Li Zi bit her lip and lowered her head, as if she was making a difficult decision.

Li Zi finally decided to go to Wushan for this amazing friend!

They crouched down on the ridge of the field, with rice gradually turning yellow on both sides. In fact, they were not as tall as the rice, but when Li Zi saw her brother and his friends going to the mountains, she also crouched down.

They crossed endless fields, entered a vine-tangled entrance, and finally reached a dense forest.

Li Zi's face was flushed, sweat soaked her collar, and her bangs were wet on her forehead. "Why aren't you sweating?"

"I don't like sweating." Song Li continued to walk up the mountain using his hands and feet.

"Where do we go next?"

"It's all right." As long as she is in this deep forest, she can absorb the wood spirit freely.

Li Zi thought for a while, and she decided to show her new friend her secret base, "Then I'll take you to find something delicious."

"I used to come here often with my brother. He knows a lot of things. He also taught me, and now I know those things too." Li Zi looked proud when talking about this.

"Look, this is amaranth." Chestnut pointed to the small red ball on the ground, which was covered with small red dots.

"My brother said the dots were snake saliva, but I found out he was lying."

Song picked some lychees and tasted them. They were not very sweet. "Not very tasty."

"Pomegranates are delicious, but hard to find. My father likes to use them to make wine. They taste sweet and fragrant. Mulberry pomegranates are also delicious, but we can't eat them. If we eat them, our mouths will be black. If we eat them and go home, we will be discovered to have run into the mountains, and we will be beaten."

Li Zi walked with Song Li and said, "This is delicious! This is very sweet. It's called raspberry." She picked a small handful and handed it to Song Li, who took a bite and ate it.

Li Zi looked at Song Li, waiting for her comment.

"good to eat!"

Li Zi's eyes curved with laughter.

"There are also goat peaches on the mountain, but the hairs on them make me itchy, so my brother used to peel them for me. There are also jujube trees over there. The jujubes look like branches, but they are as sweet as honey. However, they are only sweet after frost." Li Zi paused and said, "But after frost, the fields are bare and we can't get over here."

Song Li said: "Let's sit down and rest for a while, let's go to the big rock." There were many snakes and insects in the mountains, and she used her special powers to drive them away while walking, which greatly affected her ability to absorb special powers.

Song Li climbed up the big rock and said to Li Zi, "Don't run too far. I need to rest for a while."

Li Zi nodded. She knew that Song Li had been drinking bitter medicine before, so she was in poor health and easily tired: "Don't worry, I'll take care of you!"

Song Li looked at the round-faced little girl, still feeling uneasy. Children at this age were too playful. She used a little of her special ability on the surrounding grass. As long as Li Zi stepped out of this range, the alarm would be triggered and the grass would grow wildly to trap her.

After calming down, Song Li closed her eyes and emptied her mind. Invisible threads of supernatural power shuttled through every blade of grass, every flower, and every tree, extracting 20% ​​of the vitality of these plants. These vitality were interwoven with the supernatural power threads and slowly flowed into Song Li's body.

As the level increases, it becomes more difficult to improve superpowers. Song Li checked carefully, not missing a single plant nearby.

Li Zi looked up at Song Li, who was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, then lowered her head and poked the wild flowers in front of her with her hands.

The flowers in front of her eyes suddenly drooped, as if their branches had lost their strength. She was surprised to find that the grass had softened and the windless forest began to drop leaves with a rustling sound.

"Songli, Songli, look! It's raining leaves."

Song Li opened her eyes and let out a breath.

The fourth-level supernatural power allows communication with plants, and the coverage range of the supernatural power is expanded to one hundred meters.

"Let's go home!"

Chestnut was a little unimpressed but agreed, "Okay."

They walked through the fields again and returned to the village amid the sound of cuckoo.

As soon as they arrived at the village, four big men passed by them carrying a wooden board with a white cloth draped over it.

The crowd rushed over here, whispering or looking carefully.

"Thirty thousand! What should I do with my son?" A woman's hoarse cry came from outside the crowd, and the gathered crowd was split apart by the shrill voice.
