The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Chapter 1018 Leaving the Mountain

Bai Song was so angry at these words that he laughed.

Before he could even speak, Old Man Zhuang had already gone over with the basket of medicine.

"So you said you weren't used to the light touch, right?"

It's alright. I've been a doctor for so many years, my hands aren't too heavy.

Don't move, I'll take care of it for you.

Hey, why are you running away...?

When the person who was speaking saw that Old Man Zhuang was really coming over, he was so frightened that he turned around and ran away.

My leg, which was limping just now, doesn't hurt anymore.

Upon seeing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Old Zhuang glanced at the group of boys surrounding his young apprentice and glared at them fiercely.

He had long disliked these young soldiers.

He finally managed to get a well-behaved, obedient, and talented apprentice, and these guys actually want to steal him away.

These kids deserve to be taught a lesson and shown what's what.

"Xiaoyue, these kids don't like to be gentle."

"When you're handling this, be heavy-handed and don't hold back, you hear me!"

Sun Yue didn't even look up, and readily agreed.

Before long, the soldier whose wounds she had treated couldn't help but hiss and gasp in pain.

But they couldn't bear to give up this rare opportunity.

The soldiers who were originally lined up behind were torn between staying and leaving.

However, Sun Yue treated the wounds quickly, and before they could make a choice, it was their turn.

With a series of hissing gasps, the wound was finally treated.

At this time, Bai Song had already directed people to carry away all the wild boars on the ground.

Looking at the bloodstains left on the ground, I felt a little sorry.

If this blood were collected, it could make several bowls of pig's blood.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly called over several soldiers who had previously learned how to slaughter pigs.

They called out to Qin Lang and Lu Qingqing, and began to slaughter the pig and bleed it.

The wild boar has just died, so its blood can still be released.

If you leave it out for a while longer, not only will the blood not come out, but the meat will also taste even worse.

Moreover, in this weather, the wild boar meat will easily spoil if it's not processed soon.

The group then stopped there and began slaughtering the pig and dividing the meat.

While Qin Lang's slaughtering team was busy on one side, Old Zhuang's pickling team was also working hard on the other.

After slaughtering one of the animals, he led his men over to marinate it.

They were pressed for time and only had time to salt the ingredients.

Of course, the salt providers were Bai Song and Qian Chengzhi, the two largest members of the group.

Pieces of meat are marinated with stir-fried salt and spices.

The entire slaughtering and pickling process took more than half an hour.

By the time we finished, the sun was almost setting.

The group hurriedly packed their things and continued on their way.

......

Two days later, the team finally made it out of the mountains.

Lu Qingqing wiped the sweat from her forehead and squinted at the blazing sun outside.

He flicked the reins and continued walking forward.

By today, everyone in the team has changed into single-layer clothing.

Not only her clothes, but she also changed her shoes to single-layer shoes.

Although they are called single shoes, most people actually wear straw sandals.

A few people who were more particular, such as Bai Song and Qian Chengzhi, wore cloth shoes that they bought separately.

The sudden rise in temperature these past few days has made not only people uncomfortable, but also livestock.

People were worried that the livestock would get too hot, so they changed the frequency of watering them each day.

Previously, I only fed water twice a day, in the morning and evening, but now I feed water six times a day.

This has led to a significant increase in daily water consumption.

Unfortunately, it hasn't rained since the last time the rain stopped.

Everyone had experienced water shortages before and knew how uncomfortable it was.

Before leaving the mountains, they fetched enough water from the ditch beside the official road.

Every family's horse-drawn or mule-drawn cart was filled with water buckets.

Not only that, even the earthenware pots, ceramic jars, water bags, and gourds in the house with lids were filled with water.

Before long, it was noon, and the people walking in the group were already covered in sweat.

Lu Qingqing spotted a sparse grove of trees ahead and called out to the people behind her.

Hearing that there was a grove of trees ahead that could provide shade, many people in the group felt a surge of renewed energy.

The temperature is rising too fast, and they walk in the sun all day long.

Every day around noon, it gets so hot that it's hard to breathe.
