Quick travel: the life of smuggling is so exciting

Lin Xia and the other two stayed in the cave for thirteen days.

These ten days were the most relaxing and peaceful days she had lived since she came into this world.

It was cool inside the cave, providing a brief escape from the scorching heat. There was water and food at the bottom of the cave, and wild vegetables could occasionally be found outside. The three of them were so happy that they didn't want to leave.

Later, because catching fish was too troublesome, Lin Xia and his friend invented a fish basket. Their harvest increased dramatically, from five or six fish a day to twelve or thirteen fish a day. Not only did they eat their fill, but they also had enough to make dried fish every day. Lin Xia was not stingy at this time and generously took out coarse salt to extend the shelf life of the dried fish.

With the abundance of food, Tiedan's cheeks, which had no flesh at all, became fuller. Lin Xia also felt that she could eat more and more, and it seemed that she was starting to grow taller again.

That’s right, I’m still young and in the growth stage.

In addition to recuperating from his injuries, Lin Xia's daily activities became chopping trees. Grabbing a weapon was only the first step, he also had to become familiar with it. Even if he didn't know martial arts, he knew the most basic chopping, slashing and stabbing. The most important thing was not to let the knife cut him.

During this period, she once again lamented how great it was to have a healthy body. She had never dared to imagine that she would one day be so strong.

The other thing is to figure out the new golden finger space that has appeared in my mind.

It is hard to say whether the space is black or white. Anyway, the boundary is translucent, and you can "see" everything inside just by thinking about it.

The things put in it seem to have no gravity. You can put them wherever you want without pressing down the items below. You can also put water balls in it. Once the water is put in, it will become a flowing object without a container and can be manipulated by Lin Xia at will. Even if it approaches other objects under Lin Xia's control, it will not be absorbed. However, if a wet cloth is put in, it is impossible to separate the water molecules inside and make it dry in seconds. Maybe she can do it when she becomes stronger.

The most important thing is that it keeps fresh. Lin Xia secretly tested it with fish. The freshly killed fish was still as fresh as when she put it in after four or five days. Don’t ask why she didn’t use hot water. It was because she forgot. She put the fish in at the beginning and only remembered to collect the water later.

The ability of the space to preserve freshness does not mean that time does not pass inside. When testing it with fish, Lin Xia discovered that live fish can actually enter. As long as they are taken out at an extremely fast speed, they can still survive. Otherwise, they will die after a long time.

Judging from the situation, it seems that he was... suffocated to death.

Lin Xia guessed that the main reason why this space could keep food fresh was that it was in a vacuum state.

However, trying to collect live creatures directly requires a lot of energy. Lin Xia tested and found that she could only put in live fish about 15 centimeters long. Any larger would not work. After putting them in, she rested for a whole morning before recovering. Perhaps one day, she would be strong enough to put a human in and kill it...

Although the space is not large, it is growing.

Previously, the purple spots in the first ray of sunlight that Lin Xia absorbed every day did not bring any changes to her body except making her feel comfortable physically and mentally and as if her soul was full of strength.

However, since the space appeared and absorbed the purple light spots again, the space began to expand.

Since the purple light spot meant so much to her, she began to use constipation as an excuse to go to an invisible place every morning to meditate immersively.

After meditating for thirteen days, the space doubled in size and its side length became 25 centimeters.

She divided the entire space into three parts: one third filled with boiled water, one third filled with rice, dried wild vegetables and a small dried fish, and the remaining one third filled with valuables such as silver, flint, needle and thread, toothpaste powder, Chinese medicine bags, precious maps, leftover oil and salt jars, and freshly made mushroom powder.

When making mushroom powder, Lin Xia was not satisfied with using live fish for experiments. Anyway, live fish only remained stiff for a day and came back to life again, so she decided to try a little bit. That night when Aunt Ge was snoring loudly, she didn't notice that Lin Xia's eyes were weak and she was stiff like a paralyzed patient for most of the night.

Fortunately, the amount of contamination was not much, and I recovered in three or four hours. However, I felt dizzy and sore the next day, and it took me half a day to recover.

This medicine is really strong!

Lin Xia is fine again. She has complete physical and magical equipment, and her sense of security is rising. If she is given a group of bandits... forget it.

That day, Lin Xia was checking her feet.

Everything is almost ready, they are preparing to set off tomorrow. Humans are social animals, and although living in caves is comfortable, it is not a long-term solution. Although this forest is large, it is not an uninhabited area. Once a war breaks out, they will not be able to escape even if they want to.

"Aunt Lin," Tiedan ran over excitedly, "I just saw a rabbit on the slope over there, but it ran so fast it disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Tiedan's tone became regretful.

"Really? Take Auntie to have a look. Maybe she can catch it."

"Come with me quickly, I'll lead the way." Tiedan said like an adult.

Lin Xia almost fell in love with this child. She had hated children since she was a child, but Tiedan was cute and had a good personality. She didn't feel annoyed by the naughty kids at all.

"Aunt Lin, look, my belly disappeared right here."

"Tiedan, you're still talking about your rabbit. You must have seen it wrong." Aunt Ge, who was looking for wild vegetables nearby, said.

"Grandma doesn't believe me. I definitely saw it clearly. It's a rabbit. It has two long ears and its body is gray." Tiedan protested.

"Okay, let's stop arguing. Tiedan, come with me and look for it, and you'll find out." Lin Xia was also very bored and had had enough rest recently.

Search within two hundred meters around the place Tiedan mentioned.

Suddenly, a rabbit pricked up its ears from the grass.

"Ah, rabbit!" Tiedan jumped up and screamed. "I said there was a rabbit."

The rabbit was quickly frightened and ran back quickly. Lin Xia also chased after it with big strides, only to see the rabbit hiding in a hole at an extremely fast speed.

Tiedan finally caught up with him using his short legs.

"Auntie, it doesn't matter if you didn't catch it. Rabbits run so fast." Tiedan comforted her when he saw that she had nothing in her hands.

"Tiedan, look, this is the rabbit's home. Let's look around to see if there are any other holes like this nearby. Rabbits usually dig several holes to make it easier for them to escape."

"Auntie, here is one."

Lin Xia searched the area and found one too. As expected, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

She first sealed up the rabbit holes with soil, and then said:

"Tiedan, I'm going to go get something and call your grandma over. You stay here and watch if the rabbit runs away. Can you do that?"

"Auntie, yes, I can do it!" the little guy promised solemnly.

Lin Xia quickly returned to the cave and picked up a sack. If there were not enough sacks, she would use clothes instead.

When we returned to the rabbit hole, Aunt Ge was already digging the hole with her hands.

Lin Xia's face was filled with black lines, and he hurriedly stopped them. Then he cleared the weeds around the rabbit hole, asked two people to guard each hole entrance, and he lit a fire to smoke the rabbit. When the smoke started, he immediately ran to change places with Tiedan. Tiedan was too small to hold the rabbit.

In this way, the three of them had a meal of fresh rabbit meat in the evening. There were four rabbits in total, one big and three small. After eating, both sides shared the dried rabbit meat equally. The remaining rabbit skin was not wasted. The hair was burned off, cooked, cut into thin strips and dried. Lin Xia took a small handful and left most of it to the grandparents and grandchildren.

But this doesn’t mean that Lin Xia doesn’t like to eat or is kind.

The fish basket used for fishing was made by her, and the salt and iron pot were also hers, so Lin Xia would get an extra 20-centimeter fish from the daily catch.

Everyone picked their own wild vegetables and ate them on their own. During a famine, every grain of food was extremely precious.

The reason why he asked for less dried skin and meat was because Lin Xia learned a new skill from Aunt Ge - the ancient method of smoking fur.

After the leather is cleaned and smoked, a soft leather can be obtained.

I learned it, I learned it. Lin Xia, who only knew how to pick up waste after graduating from high school, has gained some experience.
