Traveling through the mountains and farming

After Lin Wan and the others arrived at the cave, everyone gathered around them, showing concern for them and asking about the current situation of the village.

He also helped to carry Lin Wan's things and gave her a general introduction to the situation in the secluded cave.

Since everyone fled here in a hurry today, they can only find a place to sleep on the floor tonight.

As for how to live in the future, we will discuss it together tomorrow.

At this time, Aunt Li came over and asked everyone to put their things away and go to rest.

Then, she asked Aunt Luo to take a few people to cook the snake that Luo Dashan brought back into a pot of soup so that everyone could drink some hot soup.

He also said that most of the men would go to the grain transport transfer station to bring back the remaining food at once.

So that they can drink the snake soup before setting off.

Aunt Li then handed the bowl of rice in her hand to Lin Wan, "You must be starving, eat quickly."

Lin Wan took the bowl and searched for the two siblings in the crowd.

Aunt Li immediately noticed her actions and said quickly:

"Don't worry, Xiaoke and Xiaole have already started eating over there."

Hearing this, Lin Wan looked in the direction Aunt Li pointed, and saw the two siblings eating happily, and she felt relieved.

When Aunt Li saw this scene, she remembered that when she served the meal to the two siblings just now, the first thing they thought of was to serve it to their eldest sister-in-law.

Finally, after she said she would bring food to Lin Wan, they took the food with peace of mind and started eating.

Lin Wan saw that in addition to wild vegetables, there was also a fried egg on the white rice, which was a very sumptuous meal in Quanshui Village.

She hurriedly thanked Aunt Li, then found a place to sit down, ate her meal, and looked around the cave.

This cave is like a huge passage, similar to a large tunnel in modern times.

You can see there is a hole leading to the outside on the other side, but it is too dark to see what the situation is outside.

This passage-like cave is about one hundred meters long, about forty to fifty meters wide, and the top of the cave is about ten meters high.

Opposite where she was sitting, there was a stream about one meter wide, flowing along the opposite wall of the cave, running through the entire cave.

Overall, this cave has a lot of room for plasticity.

Lin Wan started to suffer from her occupational disease again, thinking about how to transform such a large cave into a home suitable for living and livability.

In this way, she finished her meal while planning how to build the cave in her mind.

After that, she began to organize her things.

The bags of paddy and rice had been carefully placed in a dry corner nearby with the help of Luo Dashan and his team.

She then carefully counted and sorted the other things.

Then she took out the quilt and prepared to sleep on the floor for the night.

At this time, Aunt Luo came over with a bowl of steaming snake soup.

I saw Lin Wan holding a torch and bending over, carefully looking for a suitable place to sleep on the floor.

She smiled and said, "Oh, child, don't be so busy. Come and have some hot soup first. I'll get you some hay that I made during the day and spread it on the ground so you can sleep more comfortably."

Lin Wan looked up and thanked Aunt Luo with a smile, then took the snake soup and tried to take a sip.

I didn’t expect that the snake, which looks scary, can be stewed into a very delicious soup.

At this time, little foodie Li Ke hurried over with a bowl in his hands, smiling brightly.

"Sister-in-law, this snake soup is so delicious and sweet."

Seeing Li Ke couldn't wait to drink it, Lin Wan quickly reminded him: "Drink slowly, don't burn yourself."

Li Ke chuckled, then slowed down and drank the snake soup happily.

Aunt Luo next to them looked at this scene, smiled, shook her head, and turned to get some hay.

After Lin Wan finished her soup, Li Ke took her bowl away and said she knew where to wash the dishes.

Lin Wan continued to check the surrounding ground, looking for a dry and flat place to sleep on.

After a while, Aunt Luo came back with a large bundle of hay.

She placed the hay in the place chosen by Lin Wan and helped to make it spread out.

"Grandma Luo, thank you so much."

Aunt Luo waved her hands and said, "Why thank me? We will all live together from now on, and it is only natural that we should take care of each other."

At this time, Li Chongle came back. He quietly told Lin Wan that he had found a place that was convenient for getting water and safe and hidden, and asked her if she wanted to go there to wash up.

It turned out that he had been missing for a while because he had gone to ask his friends.

After hearing this, Lin Wan was overjoyed. She quickly picked up the wooden barrel and handkerchief, and walked out of the cave with Li Ke and Li Chongle.

They came to a quiet corner not far from the cave entrance. There was a stream in front of them. They could scoop water from the stream by bending down.

And she discovered that this was the upper reaches of the stream that ran through the cave.

Li Chongle walked a few steps away, with his back to Lin Wan and the others, to help keep watch.

Lin Wan put the wooden bucket into the water, filled it with cool stream water and then brought it up.

Then he wet his handkerchief and wiped Li Ke's face first, then wiped his own face, neck and arms.

After they were done, Li Chongle also gave it a quick clean.

The three of them felt refreshed, as if much of their fatigue had dissipated.

Afterwards, they carried the wooden barrel, slowly walked back to the cave, and quietly crawled into bed to sleep.

At this time, almost everyone in the cave had fallen asleep, and more than half of the men had set out to transport food to the food transfer point.

The next day, Lin Wan woke up early.

She subconsciously glanced at the cave entrance she had entered yesterday, and saw a gentle slope outside the cave with a large area of ​​green grass on it.

Then, she gently moved her somewhat stiff body, trying not to wake up the two siblings who were still sleeping.

Seeing that the people around her were still asleep, she got up quietly.

After walking out of their sleeping area, he stretched lazily.

At this time, some people had already started to move around in the cave, some were sorting things, and some were talking in low voices.

Lin Wan decided to check out the surrounding environment first.

She first walked to the cave she had entered last night, and now she could see the entire gentle slope clearly.

I saw large patches of green grass on the gentle slope swaying gently in the breeze, like a green ocean.

The green grass is dotted with small flowers of various colors, red, purple, and yellow, colorful like gems scattered on the green carpet.

In the distance, several tall trees stand, their crowns intertwined like huge green umbrellas.

The sunlight shines on the grass, creating a soft glow, making the whole picture like a dream.

Lin Wan was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery. She stood there quietly, admiring the beauty of nature.

This is truly like a paradise on earth!

After a while, she came to her senses.

She looked up at the sun to identify the direction and determined that the stream flowing through the cave flowed down from the westernmost side of the gentle slope, passed through the cave entrance she entered last night, and flowed along the western wall of the cave through the entire cave to another cave entrance.

She followed the stream, turned back into the cave, and walked towards the entrance on the other side.

After coming out of the cave on the other side, she was surprised to find another extremely open large lawn with a few large trees scattered on it.

The area here is about the size of a football field.

She walked over and took a closer look, and discovered that there was a cliff at the end of the lawn.

Looking down, it is so deep that you can't see the bottom, with wisps of mist lingering in between, as if adding a touch of mystery to the cliff.

The stream flowed through the open lawn, flowing down the cliff like a silver ribbon, shimmering in the sunlight, and then disappeared into the endless abyss.
