For several days, Yang Qianqian and Xiao Zhiyuan miraculously survived by relying on the remaining dry food and tiger meat.

Every day Yang Qianqian would break off a small branch as long as a matchstick and put it in the cloth bag she carried with her to calculate the date.

Seven or eight days had passed in a flash, and Yang Qianqian's injuries were basically healed.

Xiao Zhiyuan also had scabs on his legs, but with her help, he could basically walk a little.

Yang Qianqian looked around and realized that climbing up the hillside was an impossible task, so the only option was to head south.

I hope to move in one direction and make progress.

She just didn't believe it. There was no forest in this world that circled the earth. There would always be a way out, right?

However, for a seriously injured and weak woman, the speed at which she can walk every day is really limited.

After walking for three or four days, the food was almost gone and the two men couldn't help but feel discouraged.

"It's really damned, this ghost forest is so big that I can't get out after walking for three or four days."

All the dry food was eaten up, and there was no more meat. The two of them had reached the end of their rope. Yang Qianqian couldn't help but frown and complain.

Xiao Zhiyuan looked at the place in front of him and couldn't help but frowned: "Boss, why does this place look so familiar to me?"

Yang Qianqian raised her eyebrows, somewhat delighted: "You didn't say you've been here before, come and see what this place is.

It would be nice if you had been here before. You would be able to walk out of a familiar place!"

"is not what it means!"

Xiao Zhiyuan shook his head hurriedly, "I just feel that this place seems to be where we walked through a few days ago... Look, that carriage!"

Yang Qianqian looked in the direction of his finger and couldn't help but open her mouth.

Over there, a broken carriage was lying quietly, with broken wheels and wood chips, and the cotton curtains were torn so much that they were almost invisible...

That was - the carriage they fell off the cliff.

"We've been around for so many days, and we're back here?!"

Yang Qianqian punched the tree trunk behind her, but was stopped by Xiao Zhiyuan. "There will be a way. Why hurt yourself?"

Yang Qianqian squatted on the ground and pouted: "We have been walking for three or four days, and we were clearly heading south, so why are we walking back?

We have no food left now. Look at the two of us, we look like savages, and we stink.

Although you have replacement clothes in the carriage, look at your beard, it's almost reaching your chest.

Look at my hair, I don’t have any tiaras or anything like that anymore, I just leave it like that all day long, like the Beatles!”

Yang Qianqian spoke all in one breath and Xiao Zhiyuan did not interrupt her. He knew she needed to vent and he could understand her feelings.

After so many days of hard work, everything is back to square one. I really want to curse.

Although he didn't quite understand what the "Beatles" were that she was talking about, Xiao Zhiyuan was still very serious.

After making sure she had finished venting, he lifted her long hair and said, "In fact, you look more beautiful with your hair down than with it tied up..."

Yang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then she understood Xiao Zhiyuan's meaning. She couldn't help but look at him stupidly and smiled.

"You know, this is the most appropriate, fake, and sweetest thing I've ever heard..."

"What I said is not false..."

"But I love to hear it!" Yang Qianqian interrupted Xiao Zhiyuan's explanation and said with a smile, "You look much more mature and stable with a beard. Very handsome!"

After saying that, she patted Xiao Zhiyuan on the shoulder and laughed.

Xiao Zhiyuan stared at her and saw that the smile had returned to her face, so he simply didn't explain any further.

Although, he just wanted to say that she looked much more beautiful with her long hair than with a men's crown.

Her long hair reached her ankles, and these days she just used a simple wooden stick to tie it up.

Putting it behind your head, loosely, it is actually no different from wearing it draped over your head, except that it looks a little shorter and more suitable for walking.

Most of the time, she would just casually drape it behind her, or use the cotton strips that she had previously used to make bandages for him.

The braid she tied up, which she called a "ponytail", also looked refreshing and neat.

But her hair was so fine that these things would fall off her head in less than an hour, and finally just fall apart behind her.

Yang Qianqian suddenly thought of those shampoo commercials. How miserable those girls with such beautiful hair must be...

"Let's find something to eat first!" With fighting spirit, Yang Qianqian began to think about practical problems again.

I don’t know if there will be any kind-hearted people who will bring them food. If they rely on themselves, they might just starve to death.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a sound of leaves rustling in the air, and a large mass of something fell from the sky with a rustling sound.

It was not until the things reached her feet that Yang Qianqian reacted. She looked closely and found that they were actually two wild rabbits.

"Wow, there's food!"

Yang Qianqian raised her head quickly. There was no sign of anyone in the sky, which made her scream, "Hei Yi, is that you? Is that you?"

"He's gone!" Xiao Zhiyuan pulled her sleeve, "It seems he doesn't want to reveal his true face. Why make things difficult for him?"

Yang Qianqian pouted: "You always receive favors from others for no reason. Do you feel good about it? I'm just curious why he helps us all the way."

"I'm curious too!"

Xiao Zhiyuan started to pick up branches to make a fire. Although his leg injury had probably healed, the fractured hand would take a long time to heal, which was a bit inconvenient.

"But what I know now is that even if we want to thank them, we have to get out of this forest first. Otherwise, we won't know what to thank them with!"

Yang Qianqian listened and felt that it made sense, so she quickly said, "You are injured, sit down first, I will do it!"

They built a bonfire and started roasting the rabbit. Yang Qianqian frowned and began to worry.

"Tell me, what kind of structure is this forest made of? We were clearly heading south, so why are we going back?"

Xiao Zhiyuan said: "We must have lost our way. How about we try another route tomorrow?"

Yang Qianqian shook her head: "I think there is something strange about this forest, otherwise why did we keep walking forward but end up in the same place?

Tomorrow we will bring some carbon ash and scatter it as we go, leaving marks along the way, and see what is going on first!"
