Transformed into an extremely evil grandmother and fled to escape famine with her children and grand

When it was light in the sky and he could see things clearly, Xue Lao Hu took Han Zhaoxiong out to find out the situation.

He did not bring Xue Bao and Han Mingjiang with him, and asked them to observe the surrounding situation. As soon as they found soldiers coming, they would immediately take the people from Hanjia Village and continue to run into the stone forest.

Li Lanzhen also got up early in the morning. She really had a restless sleep. In the first half of the night, the stones under her body were burning hot, and she tossed and turned on them, just like making a pancake. In the second half of the night, the stones were ice-cold, and the sleeper felt cold.

After getting up early, she strolled around and climbed a hill that was more than ten meters high.

Looking around, this area is full of such terrain. The smooth stones have been weathered by wind, rain and sun, forming a rugged appearance.

What is very strange is that there is no grass growing in this area.

Li Lanzhen frowned, wondering what to do. If they kept going inward, there would be no water, no grass, no wild vegetables, and the water they brought from the mountains would not last for many days, not to mention that there were only twenty or thirty people in Zhoujia Village who had nothing.

It’s a bit of a headache. King Jin’s soldiers are determined to intercept the people from Hanjia Village, which means they are already prepared.

She didn't dare to instigate the people of Hanjia Village to go out and fight with the officers and soldiers.

There weren't many fireworks and firecrackers left in his hands, and these officers and soldiers had seen them before, so they should have been prepared.

After much thought, I decided that the best way was to escape from this place as soon as possible and avoid being chased by the officers and soldiers.

Breakfast is dry food and cold water.

Everyone found tall rocks to hide from the scorching sun.

Goudan, Han Yinan, Daniu and Erniu were running around in the stone forest when they suddenly found a low tunnel made of rocks.

It was like a cave, except it was very low. Even Han Yinan had to crouch down to get in. When Li Lanzhen found out about it, she went over to take a look.

She found that there was soft soil under the ground in this area, not hard rocks.

She was a little confused, but didn't ask for further investigation. She called the eldest brother, the second brother and Li Xishui to take hoes and shovels and dig down the land so that at least an adult could crawl in half-crouching.

After seeing this, other families in the village also started looking for such places.

They really found it, but it was much smaller than Li Lanzhen's home.

The place Han Yinan and his team found was where the men dug more than half a meter down. The soil was not soft, but it was not so hard that it could not be dug.

With some effort, they could still dig further. Fortunately, Li Lanzhen asked them to pile up the excavated soil along one side of the mountain and compact it with stones to form a large bunk bed.

In addition to Li Lanzhen, her own family and two in-laws, Goudan and his grandchildren also lived here, which made Goudan so happy that he was grinning all the time.

Xue Lao Hu had not returned by breakfast time.

Xue Bao and the guards kept walking around and patrolling.

Han Shunde found the old village of Zhoujia Village.

Tell him that every family must select one male to join the guard.

Village Chief Zhou said in embarrassment, "Can we wait for two days? I am really tired now and I don't have the energy to participate in the escort team's activities."

Looking at the weak and aged village chief of Zhoujia Village, Han Shunde nodded and agreed, saying that they would start in two days.

It was noon, when the sun was at its hottest, when Xue Lao Hu and Han Zhaoxiong finally came back.

They hurriedly swallowed a pancake in a few bites, and then grabbed another pancake in their hands to go to the old village chief and Han Shunde to discuss things.

When Xue Lao Hu left, he called Li Lanzhen.

They went over together and found the old village chief.

Han Zhaoxiong also found the village chiefs of Dongjiazhuang and Zhoujiacun.

When the old village chief saw that everyone was gathered, he said to Xue Lao Hu, "Xue the Hunter, tell me the situation."

Xue Lao Hu nodded and said, "The current situation is too unfavorable for us. Zhao Xiong and I first circled the stone forest, and then climbed up a relatively high stone mountain. Only then did we see that the edge of the stone forest was connected to the mountains, and there were trees on those mountains.

However, if we march quickly, it will take about five days to get out of this stone forest."

Xue Lao Hu wiped the sweat from his brow and continued.

"Then we returned to the road and walked through the woods below the pipeline until we came to the area where we had encountered the victims lying on the ground."

Xue Lao Hu's eyes were filled with anger and pity.

"There are no living people there. They were either killed or captured. There are many missing people, and many are lying on the ground."

Han Zhaoxiong went on to say, "We didn't encounter any soldiers on the official road, but just as we were about to turn into the forest, we heard the sound of horse hooves, and Uncle Xue and I quickly hid. After a while, we saw a dozen soldiers on horseback, galloping on the road."

Xue Lao Hu frowned and said, "I guess he's still looking for us."

The old village chief said, "It seems we still can't go out and can't go to the official road!!"

Looking at Li Lanzhen, he said gently, "Lanzhen, take out the map and let's see how far we are from here to Youzhou.

We can't go in the wrong direction. Not only will we have to go the wrong way, but we're also running out of food and water!"

Li Lanzhen took out a map from her arms and spread it out on the stone.

The village chief of Zhoujia Village began to get angry.

He grinned and said, "Old village chief, you guys got the map. No wonder you didn't take the wrong path and ran so fast."

The old village chief snorted coldly and did not respond.

After Han Shunde and Xue Lao Hu carefully looked at the map, they smiled with relief. Han Shunde said, "Fortunately we did not run in the wrong direction."

Xue Lao Hu looked at the map, raised his head and said, "We are about 30 kilometers away from Youzhou.

If you take the official road, you should be able to get there in less than three days.

However, we cannot take the official road. We can only pass through the stone forest and see the dense mountains with dense trees. After crossing the mountain, the city of Youzhou is at the foot of the mountain. "

Han Shunde also said, "Indeed, this is the fastest and safest way, but if you walk in the mountains and forests, it will probably take five or six days to get out.

Our food, if eaten sparingly, will just last us until we get out of the stone forest."

Thinking of this, everyone felt relieved.

However, Li Lianzhen's words made everyone nervous again.

“The food will last until then, but the water won’t last that long.

There is no water in this stone forest, not even a blade of grass.”

Everyone thought so too. The weather was hot, with the sun overhead and stones absorbing the sun's heat underfoot. Walking on hot stones was like being roasted from both sides.

This way the human body needs half more water than usual.

The old village chief sighed deeply and said, "Let's go first. We can't let a living person die from holding his urine."

"Everyone hurry up and eat. When the sun is at its hottest after noon, we will start walking. As long as it is not dark, we will keep walking. When it is hot at noon, we can rest more so that we can cool down."

The old village chief said to Han Shunde, "Shunde, gather everyone together and tell them how serious the situation is. Tell them to save food and water. Without water, people will die."

Han Shunde nodded, and everyone dispersed. Li Lanzhen walked towards her own cave, wondering what to do if there was really no water.
