Dressed as a top-notch girl, leading the whole village to become rich

The women in the family seldom go out.

Ye Laoer usually moved around in the county town and other villages. In the end, it was Ali who suggested a place.

There is a cave halfway between two mountains. Because there is a tiankeng below the cave, it is rarely visited by people.

Time was running out, so there was not much hesitation and everyone decided on a temporary place.

Next, the question is how to transport the things there and how to transport them back.

"Everyone should go to bed early today. We will set out at dawn tomorrow morning. Please pack your things in advance. Tomorrow, dad, big brother, Ah Cheng, Ah Li, and sister-in-law will go with us."

"They can't do the job of boiling oil. Xiaowan is used to it at home. The villagers won't see her, so they will probably make wild guesses." Although she knew that Ye Wan would also want to go, she was still an unmarried girl.

No one in the family had any objection to this and fell asleep with excitement. Except for Ye Guo and two children who didn't know much, no one else slept much.

Old Mrs. Ye and Wang and the others simply got up in the middle of the night and boiled a pot of lard. In order to prevent the smell from being too fragrant and arousing suspicion, they closed the doors and windows, leaving only a hole the size of a bowl, and arranged for someone to fan the hole.

When Ye Guo was called out of bed, it was probably around four or five in the morning.

"Go to the oxcart and take a nap first. When the oxcart can't move anymore, let Ah Cheng carry you." Old Lady Ye's voice sounded a little hoarse. "Xiao Wan and I will go with you. We will drive the oxcart back later."

This is different from what was discussed last night, but it is more convenient and safer than before, so Ye Guo naturally has no objection.

He tidied himself up, drank a few sips of hot water, and then went out.

Everyone had already boarded the bullock cart, leaving only her to wait.

Everyone was silent at the same time, but their faces were full of smiles and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.

That’s great. The car is covered with thick thatch. When the time comes, I will have to carry some thatch myself to reduce the burden for everyone.

The ox cart only went for about a quarter of an hour before it could go no further, so everyone had to get off and carry their things on their backs or shoulders. Their trouser legs had already been tied tightly. Boss Ye, carrying an iron pot and holding a half-person-high machete, led the way.

Most of the roads they walked on were overgrown with weeds, and there were occasional slippery roads, unexpected situations such as tree thorns, etc. By the time they had climbed over two mountains and reached the foot of the planned mountain, it was already bright.

"Xiaoguo, you and your sister-in-law stay here and guard the things until we lower the hanging basket down." Boss Ye was sweating profusely from exhaustion, but his words were in a light-hearted and cheerful tone.

He also took out a small bamboo tube an inch long from his bosom and said, "This is lard residue with salt added. You and Dad can eat it first to replenish your body."

Old Man Ye's ideas have changed a bit now. Seeing that his daughter was still looking up to observe the surrounding terrain, he took the bamboo tube and ate it first, and also gave a lot to the Su family members.

"Let's eat together, eldest brother's wife, the lard residue you cooked is really delicious."

Su felt a little embarrassed by the compliment, and blushed as she quickly stuffed some lard residue into Ye Guo's mouth, "Little sister, you need to pay attention to your health, eat more."

There was a crunching sound in the mouth, and Ye Guo insisted on eating it at this moment, giving everyone the feeling of having a picnic.

It turns out that as long as you have the sea in your heart, everywhere is the Maldives.

She was very happy to see the changes in her family.

The cave is halfway up the mountain. Ali and his friends had taken shelter from the rain in it before.

This mountain is located among the mountains and cannot be seen from the outside. There is a steep cenote on one side of the cave, and you can walk up on the other side. There are also many steep places that require climbing.

It took Boss Ye and his men a quarter of an hour to climb up, and almost another quarter of an hour to lower the basket. Along the way, Ye Cheng also returned by the same route.

Everyone methodically put food, iron pots, fat meat, quilts and clothes up in small amounts using hanging baskets.

"Mom, aunt, you hold this branch. The road ahead will be difficult to walk on. Ali goes in front and I'll follow behind." Ah Cheng has become visibly mature and made arrangements in an orderly manner.

It took them almost half an hour to walk just a few hundred meters. By the time they reached the entrance of the cave, pulling and pushing each other, they were all exhausted.

This cave is hidden in the middle of a mountain between two mountains. The entrance is not conspicuous, as if it is a crack left by nature at random. It can only accommodate one person. The cave wall is smooth, as if it has been polished by time. The cave ceiling is low, almost touching the top of the head. Faint light penetrates from the gap, barely illuminating the way forward.

"There used to be a jujube tree at the entrance of the cave. Ali wanted to pick jujubes, but it rained heavily and he stepped into empty space. Instead, he found this great place."

When Ye Guo carefully passed through the narrow cave entrance, he entered a cave that was half the size of a football field, and his eyes were as big as Tongling.

"Xiaoguo, I'll build a stove for you first, and then chop some more firewood." Old Man Ye laughed and looked around the cave for suitable stones.

Ye Guo sat there and rested for a long time before drinking some water. He and Su Shi supported each other and stood up to look at each other.

This cave was big enough for their family to live in. It had a high ceiling and a wide open space. Occasionally, a few beams of light would shine in from unknown gaps, creating mottled light and shadows. Most importantly, there were actually quite a few plants growing in the cave, and even trees with branches thicker than bowls.

However, the most shocking thing is the scene next to the cave, a bottomless cenote with steep edges and jagged rocks. Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking down, you can only see darkness, as if it leads to the bottomless abyss at the center of the earth.

The existence of the tiankeng adds an air of mystery and danger to the cave, making people feel awe at the unknown depth.

This is truly the magic of nature.

Ye Guo originally felt exhausted, but now he couldn't help but walk around and look around, feeling that his eyes were not enough.

"Oh my God, is there water inside this cave?" I originally thought that I would have to consider the oxygen issue, but I didn't expect that this was a natural big house.

"We haven't found it yet, but we can try to look for it." Ye Li laughed energetically, his hearty voice echoing in the cave.

Ye Cheng, however, is a serious and mature person. "I don't think there is any water source, but water should seep in when it rains. If we collect it deliberately, there shouldn't be a problem with using water."

Secluded, with water, and easy to defend, this is simply a perfect environment for survival in the wild.

And because it is located halfway up the mountain, even if they are boiling lard here and the fragrance spreads for miles, they don't have to worry about wild beasts breaking in. As long as they guard against insects and snakes, they don't need to leave anyone on guard at night.

Just cover the entrance and you'll be fine.
