Crossing the famine, relying on a spiritual spring to support the entire village

Su Nian'an had a splitting headache, his whole body felt limp and he couldn't move. If he had known that the fever was this severe, he would have gone to the hospital.

I'm so thirsty, my throat hurts, it's so dry, and I can't speak.

Su Nian'an frowned and tried to open his eyes, but in the end he could only open them a crack.

It's all white, nothing can be seen clearly

"An'er, An'er" the hurried and anxious calling came into my ears

Who is she? Have I been living alone since I started working? Is it a colleague who came to visit me? Why do I call her An'er?

I want to open my eyes, but I can't. I don't have the strength.

Until he felt a sweet and cool taste at his lips, Su Nian'an consciously smacked his lips and swallowed the unknown liquid into his stomach mouthful by mouthful.

Su Nian'an regained some strength and opened his eyes slightly. What came into his sight was a pale and thin face, with dishevelled hair and dirty face, tears in the corners of his eyes and a frown on his brows.

Su Wangshi looked at Su Nian'an's dark eyes, and her heart tightened. Distress and pain surged in her heart, and she hugged her and cried bitterly.

Su Nian'an was shocked when he saw the woman's appearance and was completely confused. Was she dreaming?

This skinny woman hugged her but it was so real. She felt the ups and downs of the woman crying, and her heart couldn't help but twitch.

The little girl who was holding the woman's sleeve looked at Su Nian'an with an uneasy and frightened look.

Su Nian'an didn't have time to think, his head started to throb as if it had exploded, and his whole body was shaking.

Su Nian'an only felt a cacophony of noise from the woman's anxious voice and the little girl's crying. He couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, and memories came flooding back.

"An'er, what are you doing? As long as we get to Lingxi, we can still be saved," Wang was frightened and at a loss when she saw her daughter bumping into a tree, then burying her head in her mouth and mumbling about going home.

Although the days of displacement were indeed hard, my daughter was no longer alone. She had relatives and an unborn child. How aggrieved she must have been to want to commit suicide.

Qinnan has not had a drop of water for two years now. The farmland has not harvested any crops for two seasons, and only 10% or 20% of the harvest was harvested in another season. There is also a locust plague, and the fields are barren.

Qinnan could no longer stay there. Without a harvest, the people were living off their land. Those who were strong would go to work for the rich, doing manual labor to earn some money to buy food.

But the income was not enough to cover the expenditure. Famine had begun to occur in some places. Some families with large populations had to peel tree bark and dig weeds to eat.

The drought was severe, with a lack of water and food, and the people were in dire straits. The imperial court had issued an order, and surrounding cities began to open their granaries to provide relief to the victims.

Therefore, almost all the people in southern Qin migrated to the nearest city. Wang also moved her family, including her children and granddaughter, to the neighboring Beilin. Her son had already gone to Beilin to inquire about the situation.

Su Nian'an sat weakly on a big rock. Before he could rest for a while, he felt nauseous and vomited all over the place. Even though there was nothing in his stomach to vomit,

Su Nian'an has accepted the fact that he traveled through time. Maybe his body in that world is no longer alive, or maybe he is sick and has no soul, but he can't go back.

Now they were halfway up the mountain. There was no green in Daxia, only some dead grass, and mostly sand and rocks. Because of Su Nian'an's fainting, they had been separated from the main group and were now sitting under the rocks to rest.

"An'er, eat a sweet potato to replenish your energy." Wang's rough and skinny hands handed over a shriveled reddish-brown sweet potato. They had no water left and only a few sweet potatoes were left. If they saved them, they could reach Beilin in a few days.

"Mom, what happened to your hand?" Su Nian'an saw a scarlet and shocking wound on Wang's wrist.

"Nothing, eat quickly." Wang hurriedly pulled at her ragged clothes, but still failed to block the

Su Nian'an was shocked. Could it be that the fishy and sweet thing he just drank was Wang's blood?

Su Nian'an lowered his eyes and took the sweet potato. He looked at Wang with complicated eyes, feeling a little distressed and envious.

No one has ever been so good to her. Her parents favored boys over girls and always held her younger brother in their hands. Even after she started working, she only kept her living expenses and sent the rest back home. She had excellent parents like Sister Fan. Now she felt an unprecedented deep maternal love from Wang. Perhaps it would be nice to depend on her like this.

My husband's family was in the next village, Chujia Village. My father-in-law, Chu Hetian, was in his prime, while my mother-in-law, Chu Qiao, was in her forties, ten years younger than my father-in-law. My father-in-law got married at the age of 30. He loved old lady Chu very much and listened to her in everything. As a result, he developed a rude personality and was not popular in the village.

There are three sons in the family. Su Nian'an's husband is the eldest, Chu Dashi, who is 20 years old. The second son, Chu Erzhu, is 14 years old. The youngest, Chu Xiaobao, is only 8 years old. Her husband is the least favored in her husband's family. He does all the dirty and tiring work. He was forced to be conscripted into the army during the disaster years and his life or death is unknown.

The original body was weak and as soon as the man left, her parents-in-law drove her out directly, just because her mother-in-law dreamed that she was pregnant with a girl. Even though she was pregnant with the blood of the Chu family, she was still carried out by Chu Erzhu and Chu's wife. No matter how much she cried, it was useless.

Helplessly, the original body found her mother's family and was about to go to her husband's family to argue, but the whole village happened to be fleeing the famine collectively.

Wang was afraid that if she arrived too late, she would have no place to stay and no food to share, so she packed up her belongings and followed the main force. She said that her belongings were only two loads of sweet potatoes and a few copper coins, which were only enough for the family to live frugally for half a month.

Thinking of this, Su Nian'an's head started to hurt again, but fortunately she had escaped from her extremely bad in-laws' family.

"An'er, mother knows you are upset. We are only a hundred kilometers away from Beilin. Just hold on and don't let it get worse." The daughter had not spoken since she fainted from the snake. Wang was afraid that she would get worse again, so she followed her daughter all the time, and her little granddaughter also followed her obediently.

"Grandma..." Xiao Nier also imitated Wang and handed a sweet potato to Wang. She looked so cute.

When Su Nian'an's eyes fell on Xiao Ni'er, Xiao Ni'er trembled and hid behind Wang again, looking at her timidly.

Su Nian'an retracted her gaze. Xiao Ni'er was the daughter of the original body's brother. She was thin and small, not looking like a three-year-old child. When Xiao Ni'er's mother gave birth to her, there was a severe drought. There was a lack of food and nutrition. In addition, she was weak after giving birth and died just after leaving the confinement period.

Seeing the old man and the child with no flesh on their bodies, just skin and bones, Su Nian'an closed his eyes. Although he felt sorry for them, he could do nothing.

Looking at the sweet potato in his hand that was as dry as an old man's wrinkled hand, Su Nian'an lost his appetite. Thinking of this body and two people, he ate it anyway.

"Ding"

"Hello, I am system number 526, would you like to activate it?" The same female voice as on my phone flashed in my mind and black text appeared in front of my eyes.

System? Is this the golden ring? Su Nian'an's gloomy mood was swept away. Thanks to his years of experience as a bookworm, he had learned a little about time travel literature. Perhaps he could solve the dilemma of his mother and niece.

Although I have fantasized about traveling back in time to become a princess, the wife of a leader, a queen, etc. countless times when I was reading novels, I still want to live a good life. I don’t know how long I can survive in this godforsaken place.

Su Nian'an looked at Wang fiercely, and felt relieved after making sure that she was the only one who could see it. Thinking back to when he was alert just now, he shook his head again. How could this person who even gave him blood to drink harm him? He stood up and walked to a big tree as thick as his waist.

Wang was still worried about her daughter's strange behavior and looked at Su Nian'an from a distance, afraid that she would be depressed and want to suffocate herself.

"activation!"

"Activation successful, do you want to sign in on the first day of the other world?"

"Sign in"

"Congratulations host, you have obtained water bag 1"

Su Nian'an was delighted. He got a water bag just when it was out of water. This system is really... This system is really fucking dog
