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

After this fight, Xiong Ben finally felt the gap in strength between him and Fu Cang.

Fu Cang was too strong. Even if I tried my best, I was no match for him.

After waiting for Fu Cang to knock him down again, Xiong Ben reluctantly admitted defeat.

"I surrender! I surrender to Fu Cang. You are worthy of being the most powerful warrior in your tribe. You are better than me. I will listen to you from now on!"

Fu Cang nodded and let Xiong Ben go.

"You are quite straightforward. Just accept it. Remember, I am your boss from now on. I have the right to lead you. Let's go into the mountains and hunt."

Fu Cang took away all the warriors and hunters in the tribe.

The cave suddenly became quiet, and even the voices of the women who were chattering before became much quieter, as if they had lost a lot of confidence after the men in the family were gone.

The cave was filled with a sour and foul smell. People in the tribe basically had no spare clothes. They were still wearing the same clothes they had worn when they escaped from the flood. Only some people who were afraid of the cold wore some furs.

They also pay little attention to personal hygiene. Not only do they not wash their feet every day, they rarely even wash their faces and necks.

Now Mo Xiaonian was extremely grateful that Fu Cang had chosen the location at the entrance of the cave when settling down. If they were inside, she would probably get her lungs infected just by smelling the air.

Now that the men have left, the air in the cave immediately became much fresher.

When the men go out hunting, the women cannot sit idle either. They have to go out to dig wild vegetables and collect firewood.

Luhua is quick and nimble. Ever since Mo Xiaonian would call her when it was time to eat, she has been doing all the tasks like collecting firewood and digging wild vegetables. So far, she has dug a lot of ant vegetables, which are all drying on a big rock outside the cave.

Mo Xiaonian was also hanging out on a big rock outside.

The sun made the big rock hot, and she lay on it in a spread-eagle position with her belly facing up.

These past few days she always felt uncomfortable in her stomach, as if she had caught a cold. Now that she was basking in the sun, she felt particularly refreshed.

Luhua and Yuelu were busy together. After drying all the ant vegetables, they started to dry fruits for Mo Xiaonian. They also took out all the furs she had collected from her home and dried them in the sun while the weather was good.

If the fur is not exposed to the sun regularly, it will easily become infested with insects and mold.

Yue Lu turned around and looked at Mo Xiaonian, and felt that the child was really bold, as he just fell asleep on the big rock.

When she spoke to Luhua again, she lowered her voice.

"Xiao Nian is a blessed child. Look at her. She hasn't suffered any hardship since she came here. We are also blessed with this. She has walked all the way without being hungry or cold. Don't you think so, Luhua?"

"Yes, Great Elder, I think so too."

"Look at you, kid. Didn't I ask you to call me grandma? Before, I was taking care of Fucang and Liandao, and it was inconvenient to take care of a little girl like you, so I sent you away. Now Fucang and the others have grown up and have set up their own families. You should just follow me from now on. I'm all alone anyway."

Luhua's eyes turned red.

"But I don't dare to do that. They all say that my parents and my elder brother were killed by me..."

"Don't listen to their nonsense. Why don't I believe that..."

Yuelu suddenly stopped talking and stared warily at the forest more than ten meters away from the cave entrance.

Luhua was frightened by Yuelu's expression.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

"Go and call everyone else out, I think there's someone in the woods!"

Luhua hurried into the cave and called the rest of the women out.

These women are all very tough, especially Linghua, who rushed out with her whip in her hand and stood next to Yuelu.

"Where are you, Great Elder? Are you here to grab our territory? I'll take care of them!"

"wait!"

Yuelu stopped Linghua.

"I felt a shadow in the woods just now, and I also felt like I was being watched. Now that our men are not at home, you must not go out rashly. If there are really a lot of people hiding there, what will you do then?"

Linghua stamped her feet in dissatisfaction.

At this time, Mo Xiaonian was wrapped in a fur blanket in the back and said leisurely: "Grandma, I'm so scared!"

Yuelu didn't care about Linghua anymore and just pulled Mo Xiaonian to comfort her.

"It's okay. We are not afraid even if there are people there. Although we are all women, old people and children, our fighting power is not low. If anyone dares to seize our territory today, we will fight them to the death!"

Mo Xiaonian is not afraid of people.

When she heard Yue Lu say there was a figure in the woods, she woke up immediately. What appeared before her eyes was what she had seen before, a scene that had been severely tampered with by her memory. In her memory, the shadow had already exceeded the scope of human beings and was running wildly towards a horror movie.

Linghua rolled her eyes. She really couldn't understand why these people doted on such a useless person like Mo Xiaonian!

Just like that, Yuelu and these women stood at the entrance of the cave for about a cup of tea, and then Scythe came back with the first group of hunters.

There were six of them in total, and they brought back a wild boar.

Scythe was extremely surprised to see that all the women of his tribe were standing at the entrance of the cave.

"Great Elder, why are you all standing here? Did something happen?"

Yuelu let out a long sigh.

Seeing these men, she finally felt at ease.

"There were strangers in the woods just now. I remembered that Xiong Ben and the others said that they didn't hit Zhang Liang's leg, so I felt a little nervous. If there really were people in the woods, they might want to stone Fu Cang and Zhang Liang to death. Those people really have malicious intentions towards us!"

"Is there anyone in the woods? Quickly put the wild boar down, and let's go inside the woods to take a look."

With a wave of the sickle man, the other six hunters followed him into the woods, and some brave women also rushed in.

There was no one in the woods, but Scythe found traces of someone having been there.

"Great Elder, there were indeed people hiding in the woods. I found some traces inside, but there weren't many of them, only three or four. It looks like we men can't go out together in the future. We have to stay at home to protect your safety."

Yuelu's brows were tightly furrowed.

"Who are they? What is their purpose in spying on us? When I think of this group of people secretly, I feel particularly uneasy for some reason."

"It's alright, Great Elder. After Fu Cang comes back, we will investigate together to see if we can find where these people are."
