Quick travel: the life of smuggling is so exciting

Lin Xia held the deer tightly and quickly cut its neck.

Feeling the deer's struggling strength weakening, Lin Xia smiled with satisfaction. After all, the sickle was still the most useful and it was the most convenient way to cut the neck.

The little deer died with its eyes wide open in shock.

Lin Xia calmly took out a clay pot from the space, made a big cut in the deer's neck, and collected the remaining deer blood.

Speaking of the earthenware jar, it was taken from the group of people who threatened Aunt Ge. As for whether human flesh was cooked there, it means no one saw it and it was never cooked there. The big iron pot of human flesh was thrown there in disgust by her.

In short, a business with no capital investment means making money.

I started from scratch in March and made all my money by fighting back.

Lin Xia found a total of 43 taels of silver from the group of people. Together with the 2 taels from Aunt Ge and the rest in his own hands, the total was 57 taels, which was a considerable fortune.

It was already afternoon when the hail began to get smaller. Without waiting for it to stop completely, Lin Xia couldn't wait to set off back to the cave.

Passing by the stream, I saw that there was no hail, so I cleaned the venison.

Lin Xia's skinning technique was immature, and he poked four or five holes in the small deerskin.

Back in the cave, she started to get busy. The whole deer weighed about 40 kilograms. She didn't know if it was because of its species or if it was just an underage fawn, but what was certain was that it was definitely a kind of deer.

After removing the internal organs and head, the remaining meat weighed less than 20 kilograms, which could not even fill her small space.

There was plenty of sunshine in the past month, and through Lin Xia's tireless efforts, the small space has evolved to 30 centimeters, which is more than enough to put food in, because there is no food to put in at all.

The space is enough to use as a lunch box, but too small to use as a suitcase. Lin Xia just hopes that it won’t rain for too long.

Lin Xia's hopes were soon dashed. The second hailstorm came together with a thunderstorm. The top of the mountain seemed like an immortal undergoing a tribulation. Bursts of terrifying lightning that reached the sky struck the ground. The sky was dark, and from time to time it was as bright as day, followed by a series of eardrum-piercing rumbling sounds.

There were hailstones mixed in with the raindrops, which created huge splashes of water at the entrance of the cave, making crackling sounds when they hit the ground.

Lin Xia was thankful that the flat ground in front of the cave she was looking for sloped slightly downward, preventing rainwater from flowing back in and keeping the cave dry.

She just sat at the entrance of the cave, watching the raging storm, the thunder and lightning, and the roaring stream, in a daze. It seemed as if she was the only one left in the world. There was no chirping of insects, only the threat from nature.

Thoughts raced through her mind. In less than three months, a lot had happened. She seemed to be completely separated from the weak Lin Xia she once was, and only cruelty and ruthlessness remained.

When she has nothing to do and no one around her, Lin Xia feels emo and really wants to do some exercises to calm down.

With nothing to do, she decided to make some mushroom and bone soup. She hadn't had hot soup for a long time, so as soon as the rain stopped, she went to dig yam. Yam and bone soup is especially delicious.

Lin Xia waited for 21 days. The rain kept falling, the stream turned into a river, and the river turned into a flood. Fortunately, the cave was located at a high position.

Fearing that the yams would be drowned, Lin Xia dug out the yams overnight in the pouring rain and eventually harvested 30 kilograms of yams.

In addition to exercising, bored Lin Xia also made a piece of clothing for herself.

She washed the deerskin, smoked it to soften it, sewed up the holes, and managed to make a vest.

Heavy rains lasted for more than half a month, and the temperature dropped sharply until late autumn.

Lin Xia was anxious. Once the rain stopped, unless she could fly out to buy clothes immediately, the clothes she had would not be able to last.

Her thickest piece of clothing was the tattered cotton-padded jacket of the grandmother in the village when she arrived. She had always used it to cushion the shock of other items. However, the jacket was really thin and not warm at all. She could barely wear it now. Could she rely on her righteousness to survive the winter?

The key point is that she doesn’t have this thing.

After careful calculation, it is now the beginning of October in the lunar calendar, which is November in the solar calendar. Winter is about to come in the south, so she has to leave the mountain as soon as possible.

In fact, wearing thick clothes for winter is secondary. If all else fails, just stay by the fire at all times. There is simply too much firewood in the mountains.

For her, the most important thing is that there is nothing to eat in winter. Waiting in the same place means waiting to die. Animals appear less and less, wild vegetables wither, and stocks decrease.

When she realized she had to find a way out, she started sorting out the food.

There are ten pounds of boneless venison meat left, 3 pounds of which can be made into dried meat, 3 pounds of dried mushrooms, 15 pounds of yam, and half a pound of dried fish.

As soon as the rain stopped, Lin Xia did not set off immediately. First, the mountain road was difficult to walk on, second, mushrooms appeared again, and third, the direction was unclear.

Lin Xia picked edible mushrooms frantically, as the poisonous mushrooms she had before were enough.

She picked more than 100 kilograms of wet mushrooms in three days, tore them into strips and dried them over fire. In the end, she harvested another 15 kilograms of dried mushrooms.

Before leaving, I filled half of the space with food, a quarter with water, both hot and cold, and the remaining quarter with valuables.

After three days of stopping rain, the long-lost sun finally appeared again, and Lin Xia continued on his way.

Even though her space was already filled with a lot of heavy objects, she still carried 30 kilograms, and the dried mushrooms took up a lot of space, so the entire backpack was full. Sometimes Lin Xia really wanted to throw them away, but when she thought about the days when she was not full, and that she might have to rely on them to survive in the future, she had no choice but to accept her fate and move forward with the heavy load.

Lin Xia had been eating mushrooms for three meals a day these past few days, nearly vomiting, all to reduce the weight and bulk. But it was clear that only a fraction of the weight had been consumed in the past five days. It was completely invisible; the weight was still the same!

The only good news is that the sky has been cloudless, the sun is shining, and the temperature has risen these days.

According to the plan, Lin Xia should have left the forest, but due to bad luck, she was blocked by the surging river. She still couldn't swim, so she took a detour for several days and not only did she not get out, but she also went deeper into the forest.

The roads in the mountains are not like those on plains. It is easy to lose your way if you are not careful.

Originally, Lin Xia didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until she broke into the monkeys' territory and found that she had gone too far and too deep.

The sun was shining brightly that day.

Lin Xia looked at the wild persimmon tree in front of her with surprise. She didn't expect that the extreme weather some time ago had no effect on it at all.

The fruits on the tree were somewhat malnourished and there were not many of them, but they were more than enough for her to eat.

Lin Xia was picking fruits excitedly, her mind and eyes full of changing tastes. When she was not paying attention, a black and red "stone" hit her forehead accurately. She was so scared that she immediately jumped down the tree, thinking that hail was coming again.

As a result, a burst of laughter came from the side. Lin Xia turned her head quickly and found that it was a little monkey laughing at her.

This was too much to bear, so Lin Xia picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at him.

"Ha ha ha ha."

There was another explosion.

Lin. Outline Master. Xia: ...

If quality doesn't work, make up for it with quantity. Grab a handful of stones and scatter them like flowers from heaven.

It had zero damage but was extremely insulting. The little monkey let out a sharp cry and then jumped to another tree, shooting the fruit in its hand like a bullet.

Lin Xia dodged flexibly, and just as the two sides were fighting "fiercely", a large number of monkeys came.

Lin Xia was shocked and ran away quickly.

But how could a human's speed compare to that of the agile monkeys? The monkeys kept baring their teeth, and fruit cores, stones, and branches flew towards her. Occasionally, a monkey would climb onto the backpack and dig out dried mushrooms, which scattered all over the ground, successfully achieving her weight loss requirement.

Fortunately, this group of monkeys was not as annoying as the ones on Mount Emei. They simply drove Lin Xia out of their territory and ignored her, nor did they steal her backpack.
