Crossing the famine: The hunter's wife has good farmland

Yuelu's words silenced Fengming.

He is not a brainless person. What Yuelu said is right, Fengming has to admit it.

Yuelu has quickened his pace and caught up with Fucang.

"Do you have any idea where you're going?"

"I plan to go southeast. I found out from the tribe gathering place that there is a large natural cave in the uninhabited mountain in the southeast. It is said to be warm in winter and cool in summer. In summer, hunters who come into the mountains will use it as a place to rest at night. I want to take you there and settle down there before the mountain is closed by heavy snow."

"The cave is great, warm in winter and cool in summer. You're quite amazing. I saw you go to the market every day and buy a lot of things. I thought you went shopping, but I didn't expect you to find out where to stay."

"If we want to move, we must have a direction. We can't just walk blindly in the mountains. Xiao Nian taught me all this. She can always find out a lot of things from places where people are. Great Elder, if you are tired, just sit on the cart. I have plenty of strength. Pushing this cart is like pushing a feather. You can't even feel the slightest weight."

"Good boy, if I'm tired I'll go up and rest."

Mo Xiaonian heard Yue Lu talking to Fu Cang, so she came out of the carriage and ran to Yue Lu's side.

"Grandma, please go in and sit for a while. I can't sit inside all the time. I need to get out and move around."

Yue Lu saw that Mo Xiaonian had thin arms and legs, and she really couldn't do without some exercise, so she smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go in and take a rest. You and Fu Cang can walk a little while I make shoes for you inside."

After Yue Lu got into the car, Mo Xiaonian came close to Fu Cang and asked in a flattering tone, "Are you tired? How about I push it for a while?"

Fu Cang currently had no concept of hypocrisy in his mind and was deeply moved by Mo Xiaonian's words.

"I'm not tired. In fact, if you and the Great Elder sit together in it, I won't feel tired at all when pushing it."

"No, that won't work. I'll feel bad. Try this. It's sour and sweet and delicious."

Mo Xiaonian stuffed the remaining handful of dried fruits in her hand into Fu Cang's mouth. Fu Cang felt that they were so sweet, without any sour taste at all.

Linghua was following not far behind and was almost furious at the interaction between the two.

No matter how she looked at it now, she felt that Mo Xiaonian was just a vixen. All the women in their tribe combined were not as accomplished as her.

The cave that Fu Cang found out was said to be inside a mountain five days' journey away. Those people couldn't tell the exact location, and could only tell Fu Cang an approximate location, which was halfway up a mountain shaped like a camel hump.

Fu Cang walked along this location for five days and finally saw a large stretch of green mountains.

Moreover, there are no longer any tribes nearby, but there are often signs of large wild beasts appearing.

During these few days, Yue Lu made two more pairs of leather boots, one pair for Mo Xiaonian and one pair for Fu Cang.

Yue Lu was particularly touched that the two children thought of buying her a set of cotton clothes. In her heart, she really treated the two children as her own flesh and blood. She had just finished making two pairs of shoes, and her hands did not stop as she started to make a leather vest for Mo Xiaonian.

Mo Xiaonian felt a little sorry for Yue Lu, so she grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the car.

"Grandma, you can't keep doing things inside. Your eyes will get tired. It feels especially comfortable outside today. Can you come down and take a walk with me?"

Unable to refuse Mo Xiaonian's coquettishness, Yue Lu dropped the work at hand, got out of the car, held Mo Xiaonian's hand and walked forward.

"The air today is indeed very fresh, but I always feel that this is the calm before the snowstorm!"

"Ah, grandma, that's impossible. Look, the leaves haven't fallen yet. Is it possible that a snowstorm is coming all of a sudden?"

"There's really no telling what's going on in this mountain... Hey Xiaonian, look at that mountain in the distance. It really looks like a camel hump! Could that be our destination?"

Mo Xiaonian squinted his eyes and looked for a long time, then jumped twice with excitement.

"Really, grandma, we have reached our destination!"

Fu Cang was not so optimistic.

The mountain is so big that it is not an easy task to find the cave hidden in the mountain. After they arrived at the destination, it can only be said that they have taken the first step to success.

In the evening they finally reached the foot of the mountain, and Fu Cang named the mountain Camel Hump Mountain.

"Great Elder, let's rest for one night at the foot of this mountain, and then go into the mountain to look for caves tomorrow. I think this mountain is quite dangerous. There are few people here, and the vegetation on the mountain is still so dense. In particular, I saw a lot of animal remains on the road, some of which were torn to pieces, so there must be large wild animals hiding here."

"Okay, we can temporarily camp at the foot of this mountain. Tomorrow you can take experienced hunters into the mountain to look for caves. Otherwise, if we bring so many people with us and we really encounter wild beasts, these people will hinder us."

"Okay, that's settled."

After Fu Cang's family had a cart, they no longer had to worry about setting up a tent. Although it was a bit crowded, it was no problem for two people to sleep on the cart, and it could keep out the cold and moisture, which was much better than sleeping in a simple tent.

However, because Fu Cang suspected that there were large wild animals nearby, they became extra careful when camping. The hunters and warriors in the tribe needed to take turns standing guard and watching over the campfire to prevent wild animals.

Fu Cang was no exception. He also had to keep watch with the soldiers, and his shift was exactly midnight.

So tonight, Fu Cang went to bed early.

At the beginning, Mo Xiaonian and Fu Cang slept together in such a secret place. Mo Xiaonian was very nervous, fearing that Fu Cang would go wild at any time. But Fu Cang turned out to be very honest. Apart from holding Mo Xiaonian to sleep, he did nothing else. Mo Xiaonian felt much more relieved during these few days.

It was very hot inside the carriage, especially Fu Cang's body, which was like a small stove. Mo Xiaonian felt hot while sleeping, so she kicked off the fur quilt covering her body and put one leg on Fu Cang.

The moment Mo Xiaonian put her legs on him, Fu Cang opened his eyes.

He took a few deep breaths to suppress his restless emotions, and opened the curtain of the carriage a little.
