Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Lin Wanwan looked at the six wolves outside and twitched her lips. It was quite scary to see these six wolves chopped into pieces like this.

There was also a wolf with three crossbows stuck in its body. It looked like it had died a very tragic death.

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at Lin Shitou and said with a smile, "Do you still dare to say that women are inferior to men?"

Lin Shitou quickly shook his head and said, "You guys are too scary. You've gained more from just one trip into the mountains than we have from multiple trips. You women are really brave."

"Hahaha..." All the women around burst into laughter.

Mrs. Bai said:

"It's just that this place is too wild. If we sell these wolves, we can exchange them for some food.

Unfortunately, we are in the middle of nowhere and there is no place to go to exchange for food."

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at Madam Bai and said, "Aunt Bai, how about we roast all this wolf meat? We can eat it on the way."

Roasting wolf meat is the simplest method, but Madam Bai still said, "Let's make it into jerky! It's easier to preserve."

If you want to make wolf meat jerky, the process will be more complicated. First, carefully divide the wolf meat, remove impurities such as internal organs and fur, and then cut the wolf meat into thin slices, trying to make the slices evenly thin, so that it is easier to dry.

Then just put them on a flatbed truck and string them together and hang them up, but you definitely can't hang them out in broad daylight.

Wolf meat jerky is easy to carry and preserve, and can serve as an important food reserve in the days to come.

They acted immediately and soon Mrs. Bai brought a group of older women to start making jerky wolf meat.

Zhao Qiaoniang took advantage of this opportunity to feed Lin Wanwan. While feeding her, she said, "We can make you a pair of shoes with wolf skin when the time comes, but they need to be bigger. Your feet are too small now, and you don't need shoes."

Madam Bai nodded quickly and said, "We don't know how to tan, do we?"

"The wife of the Tian family said that her father-in-law would do it."

After Zhao Qiaoniang finished feeding the baby, she picked up the basket again. Madam Bai looked at her and said,

"Qiao Niang, why are you still going out so late?

We have a long journey tomorrow, so why not let them have a good rest today?"

Zhao Qiaoniang shook her head and said, "I still plan to go into the mountains again. I have made some new discoveries about milk candy."

Madam Bai looked at her and said, "Then you better be careful."

Zhao Qiaoniang said "hmm" and then led more than 20 women to the mountain. Now there were more than 20 women in total, including the women from the hunter's family, the Tian family, and Zhao Qiaoniang's family.

Zhao Qiaoniang followed Naitang and continued walking deeper into the mountains. After walking for half an hour, they stopped.

Mulan was shaking with fear: "Here...why are there so many corpses here?"

Zhao Qiaoniang was also shocked. There was a disgusting stench here.

There were corpses piled up all around, some of which were already highly decomposed. Pus oozed from the festering flesh, forming pools of filthy liquid on the ground, and unknown maggots were wriggling in them.

White bones were intertwined in the pile of corpses. Zhao Qiaoniang was watching all this in horror. Suddenly, a pair of cold hands grabbed her feet.

"Ah... What is this?" Zhao Qiaoniang fell to the ground and saw a man covered in wounds. He looked up at her and said, "Help... Help me..."

Zhao Qiaoniang was so frightened that her whole body shuddered, and the others were also startled.

"Is this man still alive? Should we save him?" Mulan looked at Zhao Qiaoniang, who frowned.

She shouldn't be soft-hearted in this disaster year, but this is a human life!

She sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, save it! It's a life too."

A group of people dragged him directly to the nearby woods. Zhao Qiaoniang gave him some water and fed him some pills. The man's body was covered with scars.

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at them and said, "Stay away. Some of you are married, and some are not yet married. Please be more cautious."

She has no plans to remarry, so she has nothing to worry about.

She helped the man apply the powder directly. The man woke up and looked at her and said, "Thank you for your kindness. What's your name?"

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and said, "Don't worry about my name. Why are you here?"

"I was murdered. This jade pendant is an heirloom from my ancestors. I still have some things to do. Can you help me out, young lady?

I know my request may be a bit abrupt, but my brothers are still waiting for me to save their lives. Can you give me some water and food? "The man looked at Zhao Qiaoniang with a pale face.

Zhao Qiaoniang took out some dry food from her backpack and said, "I don't have much left. I'll give it all to you. I also have a water bag..."

"Thank you, young lady. May I ask your name?"

Zhao Qiaoniang quickly shook her head and said:

"I'm not a girl anymore, I'm a mother of three children.

Since this jade pendant is an heirloom from your ancestors, I cannot accept it."

The man took several sips of water and said, "Thank you very much. What's your name? I'll definitely reward you handsomely in the future."

"It doesn't matter whether you thank me or not. Do you still want to save your brother?" Zhao Qiaoniang asked softly, "I'm afraid your health won't allow it!"

The man sighed and said:

"There is a big coal mine here, and my brother was captured by the mine owner.

There are dozens of brothers in total, and I must go and save them."

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and whispered, "Are you... a soldier?"

The man looked at her and said, "Yes, how did you know?"

"I see calluses on your hands, you must have used knives and guns frequently. And the tattoo on your hand is probably the mark of a certain army." Zhao Qiaoniang said softly.

"Yes, I am indeed a soldier. I sent dozens of brothers here to investigate the coal mines, but I didn't expect that they were all detained." The man said helplessly.

Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and said:

"The injuries on your body are quite troublesome, especially the one on your abdomen.

I can only help you stop the bleeding first, I can't do anything else."

He nodded and said, "Take this jade pendant. It's okay. I can think of another way."

He forcefully stuffed the jade pendant into Zhao Qiaoniang's hand. The man was about 25 years old, with an upright figure and a height of nearly meters, which made him stand out from the crowd in ancient times.

He was holding the wound on his abdomen that was bleeding continuously. Blood seeped out from between his fingers and stained his clothes red.

Every breath was painful, but his spine remained straight: "I'm leaving."

His voice was low and hoarse, yet it was undeniably firm: "Thank you for your help. My name is Huo Jun. We'll meet again if we're lucky."

After saying that, he turned around, and although his steps were a little staggering, they were full of determination.

Zhao Qiaoniang hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask them if they have any water and food. Where are you going? We'll take you there."

He couldn't get very far like that.
