God-given mother: The villain cub is super clingy
Chapter 38 Entering the Mountains
It turned out to be a sacrificial activity. In Lin Yue's opinion, it should be similar to a harvest celebration, right?
"Yes, every household has to prepare offerings. They have to give a bowl of grain from the harvest, a bowl of meat, and all kinds of fruits and vegetables. The village also has to slaughter chickens and sheep, and the young people have to organize people to hunt game in the mountains. After the sacrifice, all the food is distributed to everyone."
Talking about the community day, Dong Caixia looked very excited. This year's community day was worth celebrating, because not only was the Qin family reunited, but most importantly, Mrs. Qin's illness was cured.
Community Day is an important festival in the village, and it is as lively as the Chinese New Year, so it is a day that everyone looks forward to after the autumn harvest.
"Sister-in-law, can you tell me what the rules are and how to prepare them? I'd rather prepare them myself. Since it's a sacrifice, it's more sincere to prepare the offerings myself."
At Lin Yue's request, Dong Caixia no longer insisted and told her in detail what she needed to prepare.
Qin Fang just happened to come back and said that Old Man Ye and the others would go up the mountain tomorrow. This time they were going deep into the mountains and would not be back for several days.
When Lin Yue heard this, she felt a little moved.
She also wanted to go for a walk in the mountains, so she told Qin Fang.
"Can I come with you?"
"You want to go too?"
Qin Fang was a little surprised. The women in the village didn't have the courage to do that.
"Well, I want to go and see if there are any precious herbs."
"Oh, that's fine. But what about your four children? We probably won't be back for two or three days."
When Dong Caixia heard this, she glared at him angrily and said directly.
"What should I do? Am I not at home? Ah Yue, just go ahead and don't worry. I will help you take care of them."
Qin Fang thought so too. The children had their wives to take care of them during the day, so they wouldn't starve. So he let his son Dashan go over to keep them company at night.
"Then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law! I'll go back and explain it to them."
Qin Fang told her to call her at the appointed time.
Lin Yue then left Old Qin's house. After returning, she told the four men that they would go into the mountains tomorrow. She also told them to go to Old Qin's house to find Dong Caixia if they had any problems. Qin Qi, the second son of the Qin family, would not go into the mountains, so she asked Dashan and Xiaoshan to keep them company at night.
"Mom, please be careful."
"Yes, I will, don't worry!"
Lin Yue made some preparations for going into the mountains. She found the four men's tattered clothes, the kind that could not be patched anymore, and cut them into long strips the size of a palm. She made them into leggings and wrapped them around her wrists and calves. When going into the deep mountains and forests, she had to dress neatly so as not to affect her movements.
There are many unknown dangers in the deep mountains, and you have to be especially careful about snakes, insects, rats and ants. You have to tie your trouser legs and cuffs tightly. Due to limited conditions, you can only take some basic protective measures.
She wasn't afraid of entering the deep mountains and forests; she'd trained in wilderness survival in her other world. She remembered having a very sharp knife, a reward from the base when she achieved her first medical breakthrough. It was said to be made of flint flakes, which were heavy, but its sharpness was unmatched in the world, capable of easily cutting through even the most ruggedly skinned animals.
The knife was only as long as a forearm. The blade was made of wood and flint. The shape was a bit clumsy. Because it was a bit heavy, Lin Yue kept it as a collectible.
Now that they were going into the mountains, Lin Yue couldn't think of any other weapons. A gun wouldn't work, so she thought of this knife, which could be used to deal with large beasts at critical moments.
While the four men were asleep, Lin Yue lit a stick of incense outside, sneaked into the space, stayed there for ten minutes, and came out to see that the incense had burned to the bottom. It seems that ten minutes in the space is equal to thirty minutes outside, one hour is equal to three hours outside, and one day is equal to three days outside. By analogy, the speed of time flow in the space is three times that of the outside.
Knowing what was going on, Lin Yue felt at ease.
The next morning, Lin Yue estimated that it was about time, so she quietly got up, dressed neatly and waited.
After a while, Qin Fang's voice sounded at the door.
"Ayue..."
"Hey! Here we come!"
Lin Yue agreed, tucked the quilts for the four men, and tiptoed out the door.
Lin Yue knew most of the young people standing outside the yard, including Da Niu, Erwang, Chunlai, Chunxi, Old Man Ye and his son, the two brothers Qin Fang and Qin Shu, and herself, a total of nine people.
Everyone was equipped with handy tools and hunting gear. Only Old Man Ye and his son had the most complete equipment. They both carried large bows and long swords. The rest were the Qin Fang brothers, both of whom carried a long sword on their backs.
"Let's go! Caixia will be here soon to take the four children to my house for breakfast."
"Hey, Ah Yue, you look great dressed up. How did you come up with that?"
Old Man Ye looked at Lin Yue, who was armed from head to toe. His hair was wrapped in cloth, and his cuffs and trouser legs were tied with cloth. As someone who often went into the mountains, he thought it was very practical at first glance.
This way, you don't have to worry about your cuffs and trouser legs being scratched by branches when you walk, which is a good idea.
Lin Yue smiled and said, "I was just daydreaming. I thought I'd wrap some cloth around my legs so they'd be easier to walk on. I wouldn't get scratched by the branches and grass and it would make my legs itchy and painful."
"That's great, we can do this in the future."
The group went up the mountain while talking, and when they were almost in the mountain, it was just getting light.
After walking for a while, they arrived at a hillside not far from the water source. Old Man Ye pointed to a cave on the hillside.
"That's where we'll rest when we get into the mountains. Ah Yue, do you want to come hunting with us, or do you want to find herbs on your own?"
Lin Yue had already thought it through and decided that it would be more convenient to go around by herself so that she could dig up herbs and throw them directly into the space. So she said she would go around the area by herself.
"Okay, we'll gather here at dusk to spend the night. Don't run too far. If anything happens, remember to blow the whistle."
Old Man Ye took off a small bamboo tube from his neck and handed it to Lin Yue, and told her how to use it. Lin Yue tried it and found the sound was very clear and could be heard from far away, so she put it away.
She had discovered long ago that Ye Qiu Sheng also had one on his neck. This should be the standard equipment for them father and son to go up the mountain.
Old Man Ye also told her about some common traps in the mountains and asked her to avoid them because the places where they set the traps were marked.
Qin Shu looked worried, but he didn't dare to say it. Qin Fang was also a little worried about her traveling alone. Although he felt that Lin Yue had some skills, she was still a weak woman after all.
"Ayue, be careful. Blow the whistle if anything happens!"
Ye Qiusheng patted his shoulder.
"Brother Fang, don't worry, Ah Yue has hunted wild boars before!"
Lin Yue also smiled and nodded.
"Okay! I'll be careful."
Qin Fang thought about it and agreed. Lin Yue did have some skills. Anyone who dared to hunt wild boars must have ways to protect himself.
After explaining everything clearly, the group went their separate ways.
