Chapter 141 Blessings warn of impending danger

After walking for several days, they were getting closer and closer to the man-eating forest, and Zhufu became more and more nervous.

It just so happened that today Liu Xiaoxiao came to call him to the Liu family camp for lunch. Seeing Zhufu's worried look, she asked, "Grandpa, my grandfather asked me to come over and ask you to have lunch together."

"Eh? Grandpa, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Liu Xiaoxiao noticed that everyone had been quietly traveling lately, occasionally encountering a few refugees, but they didn't dare to provoke a group like theirs. Even if there were some fearless people who tried to grab some food, they would be severely punished by the patrol team led by their eldest brother.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoxiao didn't know why her grandfather looked so sad today.

Zhufu didn't find it strange to see Liu Xiaoxiao calling him to eat. After all, since he fled the famine, he had often gone to Liu's house for meals, and after a long time, he no longer had any reason to be polite.

But he didn't answer Liu Xiaoxiao's question just now, and only said: "Nothing, let's go find your grandfather, and I will talk to you then."

Liu Xiaoxiao certainly had no objection. She walked over and took his arm, saying, "Okay, let's face it together. You can't be sad alone."

"Okay, our Xiaoxiao is becoming more and more sensible now. If you can learn more knowledge from your father, I'm afraid grandpa won't be able to argue with you in the future, hahahaha..." Zhufu patted her arm, and the two of them chatted all the way to Liu Yingcai.

Liu Yingcai wanted to ask what they were talking about and why they were so happy, but Liu Xiaoxiao refused to tell him. He had no choice but to ask Grandma Liu to serve the meal.

Of course, Liu Xiaoxiao wouldn't tell him. What if she told Grandpa Liu and he told her to study? She didn't want to go back to school. The knowledge she had learned before was basically enough for her now. She wasn't going to take the imperial examination or become an official's wife, so why would she need to learn all that tedious formalities?

After dinner, Zhufu asked Grandpa Liu to take a walk with him to help digest the food, and asked Liu Xiaoxiao to accompany him.

Liu Yingcai knew that his in-laws' talk of a walk to help digestion was fake, and that they were actually talking about something. And since they had even invited Xiaoxiao, he suspected it might be related to his granddaughter's dimension. If that was the case, he definitely had to go!

As they reached the edge, Zhufu spoke, "There aren't many people here, so I'll let you know. We're almost there, the place Xiaoxiao Space predicted."

Liu Yingcai suddenly became nervous and asked, "So fast? How many miles is it?"

Zhufu thought for a moment and said, "About a hundred miles!"

Liu Yingcai thought about it and realized that at their current walking speed, they could only cover about thirty miles a day. He said, "Then we might reach that place the day after tomorrow!"

Zhufu nodded and replied, "That's about right!"

Liu Yingcai looked at Zhufu and said, "Should we go tell my eldest brother so that they can be prepared?"

Zhufu knew that the big brother he was talking about was Liu Yingxiong, so he said, "Of course we have to tell them, but not now. If you tell them now, it will make them anxious."

Liu Yingcai nodded, thinking that it was indeed the case. He was a little anxious now, let alone others.

But why not tell me when it will arrive? They don’t know when it will arrive! They can’t wait until it’s actually here to tell me!

Zhufu thought for a moment and said, "I estimate it will be the day after tomorrow. So, tomorrow afternoon I'll have my boys go ahead and scout the way. If we know the exact location, we'll tell your village chief tomorrow night or the morning after tomorrow. That way they won't worry too much and will know the exact time so they can take precautions."

Liu Yingcai thought this was feasible, but it would be too hard for several people in his family.

Liu Xiaoxiao said, "How about this! Grandpa, give me their water bags tomorrow. I'll replace all the water they give me with spiritual spring water. This way, they'll feel better after drinking it."
