Traveling Through Farmhouses: Taking the Baby on a Famine Escape

The next day, Zhang Xixi woke up late again. She stretched and took her toiletries to the side to brush her teeth and wash her face.

Zhang Xixi looked at the water in the basin and noticed that her skin seemed to have improved. It was worth spending so much luck points.

Moreover, this system's online store is really good; the products they sell even have packaging options for both ancient and modern styles. So Zhang Xixi bought some toiletries not only for herself but also for her two babies.

Because of what happened yesterday, Chief Zhou said he would leave a little later today. After breakfast, everyone slowly packed their things.

But when Zhang Xixi saw her mother bring back a bowl of brown sugar and eggs to her second sister-in-law, she looked worried.

"Mother, what are you worried about!"

Chen said worriedly, "Your second sister-in-law's belly is already so big, I'm worried that something might happen on the road."

Zhou is due to give birth in a few months; if anything goes wrong, the baby might not survive. Zhang Xixi thought for a moment, then took out the health-preserving pills she had bought last time and handed them to Chen.

"Mother, these are pills given by that immortal to help regulate the body."

Chen took the small porcelain bottle, opened it, and smelled a strong medicinal fragrance. "Will this work?"

"Mother, I've already eaten. Haven't you noticed that I feel better?"

Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter carefully. Recently, her daughter was able to run and jump. She had always thought that her daughter was still in the pre-marriage stage, forgetting that her body had become very weak after giving birth!

"Your second sister-in-law is pregnant, can she eat it?"

Zhang Xixi frowned slightly. "Mother, why don't you have my older brother take the medicine and ask Uncle Wang? It's better to be careful."

"There are 10 more here, you can take them back too!" Zhang Xixi gave the eggs she had prepared in advance to Chen.

"Keep this for my grandson. I'll find something else to nourish him."

"Mom, the two babies don't like to eat eggs now, so a bowl of milk a day is enough for them." Zhang Xixi stuffed the egg directly into Chen's hand and let go before Chen could hold it properly.

Mrs. Chen quickly gripped the cloth bag tightly, "Zhang Xixi, be careful!"

Zhang Xixi: If I'm careful, you'll probably keep making excuses. It's better to just take action directly. I really don't like this back-and-forth.

Chen had no choice but to take the eggs and medicine back home. As soon as she got back, she asked Zhang Wenbo to take the medicine to Wang Gensheng, who said it was safe to eat. So she gave the medicine to Zhou.

Zhang Xixi also took her beauty pill, but the effect was not obvious at first. However, for several days in a row, black substances would come off when she washed her face in the morning.

For the next few days, their team focused solely on their journey, progressing slowly as someone had to clear obstacles ahead. Fortunately, each family wasn't carrying much, so they managed to hold on. Zhang Xixi also had the system's scanning function activated during these days, but they didn't encounter any rare treasures.

She also plans to earn more luck points so she can go on another big shopping spree!

"System, isn't it said that increasing your luck stat brings good fortune?"

"Host, do you want to exchange your luck points for good fortune?"

How do I redeem it?

"One lucky draw costs 10,000 luck points!" Zhang Xixi felt like she was about to vomit blood from anger. It was so expensive, was they trying to kill her? And if she got less than 10,000 luck points this time, wouldn't she lose everything?

"Host, generally speaking, the things you encounter are quite good! However, system transactions are entirely voluntary, so the host should consider it carefully!"

Zhang Xixi decisively refused to exchange the item; she'd rather rely on her own luck!

They arrived at a dense forest that day and planned to rest there for half an hour. Zhang Xixi put away her things and the two treasures, and then planned to carry the big machete and ride Xiao Jin out for a stroll.

"Mom, where are you going by yourself?" Erbao asked anxiously. Was his mother going to go out alone again?

"Erbao, be good, Mommy isn't alone. Xiaojin is here. I'm going out for a walk and I'll be right back."

Xiao Jin also shouted to Er Bao and the others, "I will definitely protect my master, don't worry, little master!"

Zhang Xixi rode Xiao Jin up into the forest. On a hillside more than 1000 meters from the camp, she found a very precious medicine. Zhang Xixi immediately went towards it, but a silver sable rushed out of the grass.

Luckily, Zhang Xixi dodged quickly, otherwise her face would have been disfigured beyond repair!

Xiao Jin immediately came to its master's side and barked at the silver ferret. The ferret stopped attacking Zhang Xixi and just watched them warily. It seems that the tiger is still more powerful!

"System, what do we do? Why are there guards protecting the house?!"

“Host, it’s not surprising that such a miraculous medicine has a guardian.”

Zhang Xixi asked in confusion, "Why didn't you get any the last few times?"

"Host, this means those herbs aren't of a high enough quality!"

What kind of miraculous medicine is this?!

Zhang Xixi took out the herbal medicine book and flipped through it. It turned out that the medicine was called Qianling Ginseng, which had the effect of bringing the dead back to life. However, it had to be taken with snow lotus, and the person had to still have a breath left.

Wow! That's amazing!

We absolutely must get it. System, please think of a way!

"Host, you can try spiritual spring water, preferably high-grade spiritual spring water!"

The high-grade spiritual spring water was so expensive that Zhang Xixi was a little reluctant to spend it, but just to have one more life, she still spent 1000 luck points to buy the spiritual spring water and put it on the ground.

Unexpectedly, the spring water not only failed to lure the weasel, but also caused the gluttonous Xiao Jin to drink it all without warning.

Zhang Xixi gently tugged at the white tiger's ear, "Little Jin, you're keeping my medicine. I went through so much trouble to find it."

Xiao Jin glanced at Zhang Xixi, then suddenly rushed towards the ferret. "Master, I'm going to kill that ferret so you can gather herbs!"

Zhang Xixi stared in disbelief at the two animals locked in combat. How did Xiao Jin suddenly become so powerful?

The system reminded him: "Host, why aren't you digging for herbs yet!"

Zhang Xixi snapped out of her daze and hurriedly ran over to dig for herbs. There were actually three plants. She checked all three before she started digging!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for signing in to a rare treasure! You have been rewarded with 11 luck points!"

A smile appeared on Zhang Xixi's lips. She had made a small fortune again. She dug triumphantly, dug triumphantly!

After digging up the two trees, Zhang Xixi thought it best to be kind and leave one for the little ferret. "Little Gold, come back!"

Seeing that the Thousand Spirit Ginseng, which it had been guarding so carefully, had been stolen by this human, the silver sable was so angry that it bared its teeth and claws and charged at Zhang Xixi, but was once again stopped by Xiao Jin and a bucket of water.

"Little Mink, I didn't dig up all your herbs, so consider this spiritual spring water as compensation!" Zhang Xixi said before riding away on Little Gold.

The silver sable went back to check on the Thousand Spirit Ginseng, then ran back to sniff around the wooden barrel before sticking its head in. However, it fainted as soon as it finished drinking.

We've been tricked, those damned humans!
