Traveling Through Farmhouses: Taking the Baby on a Famine Escape

Zhang Xixi slashed at the wolf king's waist with her knife. The wolf king let out a miserable cry and immediately released its grip. Zhang Dacheng immediately pulled his leg away.

"Father, how are you?"

"It's just a minor injury, it's nothing!"

Zhang Xixi and Zhang Wenhong looked at Zhang Dacheng's leg, which had been bitten to the bone, and tears welled up in their eyes. Their father must be in a lot of pain, and they comforted him.

Seeing the two men staring blankly at his legs, Zhang Dacheng immediately shouted, "What are you two standing there for? Hurry up and kill the wolf king!"

Zhang Xixi and Zhang Wenhong reacted immediately, charging fiercely towards the wolf king. One attacked its head, while the other slashed hard at its waist. Finally, the wolf king let out a miserable howl and fell to the ground.

The other wolves, seeing their alpha wolf dead, attacked them even more fiercely. Zhang Xixi and Zhang Wenhong helped Zhang Dacheng into the enclosure and then went out to kill more wolves.

Unexpectedly, just as the battle was about to end and the wolves were about to be killed by the villagers, more than ten wolves rushed down from the mountain.

What to do? The villagers are already exhausted, and some are even injured. Why are they still coming?

Are they doomed this time?!

Awooooo...!

Hearing the roar, Zhang Xixi knew that Xiao Jin and the others had returned, and now they were saved!

"Hang in there, everyone! We'll be victorious soon!"

Sure enough, Xiao Jin led Xiao Hua to charge at the dozen or so wolves and fiercely attacked them. The villagers seemed to see hope and fought the wolves even more fiercely. The women also bravely wielded machetes and slashed at the lone wolves.

The battle ended quickly; most of the wolves were killed, and a few escaped. Many villagers were injured, but thankfully, no one died; they were all alive.

The elderly and children all ran out, and seeing their fathers (sons) still alive, they cried and laughed. The women also rushed over to take care of their husbands.

Seeing that Zhou Yujie and Zhang Wenhong were not injured, Zhang Xixi bought some high-grade spiritual spring water and carried it back to her mother's home. Zhang Wenbo was cleaning Zhang Dacheng's wounds, and Chen Shi covered her mouth and cried. Although Zhang Dacheng was sweating from the pain, he still smiled and comforted her.

"Old woman, I'm fine. This little injury will heal with some rest."

Zhang Xixi quickly stepped forward and handed the water in her hand to Zhang Wenbo: "Brother, use this to wash your wound, it will heal faster."

Zhang Wenbo gave Zhang Xixi a deep look, took the water and washed Zhang Dacheng's wound again before bandaging it with medicine.

"Mother, why don't you invite Uncle Wang over?"

Chen wiped away her tears and said, "Clan Chief Zhou was also injured and fainted. Your Uncle Wang is treating him there."

Zhang Xixi exclaimed in surprise, "Is it serious?"

"It seems quite serious!"

Zhang Xixi looked at Zhou Yujie, "Yujie, go check on my older cousins ​​and see if they need any help."

Zhou Yujie was also worried about his older cousin, and Zhang Dacheng asked Zhang Wenbo to go and check on Zhou Dashan, so the two of them went together.

"Old woman, help me up!"

Chen did not respond, but simply walked to his side.

Zhang Xixi also asked, "Dad, just call us if you need anything!"

Thinking about all the wolf carcasses, Zhang Dacheng said, "The smell of blood here is so strong, I wonder if other wild animals will come by. I need to go and warn everyone."

Zhang Xixi: "Dad, don't worry, I've asked Xiaojin and Xiaohua to keep an eye on things. They'll let us know in advance if there's any danger."

Chen also said, "Old man, just focus on recovering from your injuries and don't worry so much. Second brother has already led people to deal with those wolves, and they will handle the rest."

As dawn approached, Wang Gensheng finished bandaging all the injured. Fortunately, except for Zhou Dashan and Zhang Dacheng, the others only had minor injuries and would recover in a few days.

There were a total of fifty-six wolves this time. Zhang Wenhong and his men cleaned them all up. Although wolf meat is a bit tough and not easy to stew, it is still meat and can be eaten. Moreover, wolf skin is a valuable commodity; it can be a lifesaver in winter.

Everyone in the village contributed to the wolf-killing effort, but Zhang Xixi's family, with Xiao Jin and Xiao Hua among them, killed the most wolves. As a result, Zhang Xixi's family received three wolf pelts, while the rest of the families each received one. Those who were seriously injured received an extra wolf pelt, and no one raised any objections to the amount.

Everyone was busy making stewed meat. With so much wolf meat this time, each household got a lot. What they couldn't finish was cured with salt and made into bacon.

Zhang Xixi thought that she disliked the wolf skin, but her two sons and Zhou Yujie could use it, so she asked Zhang Wenhong to help tan the wolf skin, just like last time.

After marinating the wolf meat, Zhang Xixi plopped down on the ground, feeling very tired and experiencing intermittent pain in her lower abdomen. Could this familiar feeling be her period coming?

Seeing Zhang Xixi's pale face, Chen asked, "Daughter, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhang Xixi whispered, "Mom, I think I've started my period. My stomach hurts a little."

"Go and take care of this first, and Mom will cook you a brown sugar egg."

Zhang Xixi nodded, "Yun'er, come with me!" She was terrified of snakes and needed someone to keep watch.

"Okay, Sister Xi."

Zhang Xixi slowly stood up and walked into the woods.

"Sister Xi, aren't you going to get that..."

Seeing Duanmu Yun blushing and unable to utter the right word for a long time, Zhang Xixi sighed that people in ancient times were still too shy!

"I brought it, let's go!"

As Zhang Xixi walked, she thought, "I'm not used to the stuff here. I'll just buy the big band-aids that girls need from the system!"

"Yun'er, just wait for me here!"

"Ok."

Zhang Xixi bought several different sizes of large bandages in the system store, put them in her storage bag, tidied herself up, and came out, but her stomach was getting more and more painful.

When Duanmu Yun saw Zhang Xixi clutching her stomach, she immediately went to support her. "Sister Xixi, you must be feeling very uncomfortable!"

Zhang Xixi nodded gently. It was so painful. She never expected that she would still have to suffer from menstrual cramps even after changing her body. She felt like she wanted to die.

Seeing that Zhang Xixi was in a lot of pain, Duanmu Yun didn't say anything more. But in her heart, she was thinking, "Didn't the wet nurse say that you wouldn't feel pain after giving birth? Why is Sister Xixi still in so much pain? Should I still look for a husband?"

Zhang Xixi was completely dejected. After returning home, she drank a bowl of brown sugar and egg soup and then lay down with a hot water bottle on her back.

"System, is there a good way to cure this completely?!"

"Host, I don't have medical functions, but you can take more health-preserving pills. I think your body might have been damaged when you gave birth to twins."

Zhang Xixi said weakly, "Then give me five health pills. I need to take one every day."

"Host, I have good news for you: your luck stat is too low."

Zhang Xixi gritted her teeth and said, "System, can you even tell the difference between good and bad?"
