A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!

Jiang Yi poisoned the animals without anyone noticing. His hearing, eyesight, and alertness were all top-notch; these people were so lazy that he didn't have to exert much effort at all.

After poisoning them, Xia Ning first made him take a bath and change his clothes, just in case he got any poison on him. Then she quietly waited for the poison to take effect.

After dawn.

She took Jiang Yi out. The village was eerily quiet; there was no wind, yet it gave off a chilling feeling.

A man lay on the village road, his body contorted in a grotesque manner. As they approached, they saw blood flowing from his seven orifices, the blood tinged with black. His eyes were wide open, his death unfulfilled.

Very good, that's definitely toxic.

After storing the body in their spatial storage, they felt much more at ease.

She believed that even if these people were lucky enough to escape the poisoning, not many of them would survive.

"Jiang Yi, we'll search for supplies from house to house. Keep an eye on things so that no one slips through our net."

"Yes, we should also smash the jar that was poisoned yesterday." If a passerby accidentally drank from it, it would be a real tragedy.

Xia Ning nodded.

They started their search from the middle of the village.

Jiang Yi said that no one lived at the beginning or end of the village; all the people lived together in the middle because the middle was the closest to the well.

Jiang Yi kept his ears perked up the whole way. As they approached the well, without him even having to remind them, they could hear the loud, shrill cursing.

"Damn it, which bastard did this? Outsiders came to the village, why didn't any of you know? They were all wiped out, and you don't even know who they are?"

"Hurry up, search the whole village! Find those scumbags and avenge our boss and our brothers!" The man who said this was filled with fear, and you could see his legs trembling slightly.

"Second-in-command, nothing's been unusual these past few days. If it weren't for us brothers being on duty guarding the well yesterday, we wouldn't be here either!"

After the man finished speaking, he was also deeply moved. "Damn, I almost bled to death from all seven orifices. That was terrifying!"

“I think they’re resorting to such underhanded tactics because they don’t have many people, and it’s definitely for our well,” one of the henchmen said confidently.

The leader nodded, agreeing that it was otherwise. Why were all the water tanks poisoned, but the well remained unaffected?

"You all better be alert! They won't give up now that they haven't succeeded. We'll take turns keeping watch, so stay alert, everyone. We're outnumbered right now, so if you want to live, don't slack off!"

"Don't worry, boss, who would dare to slack off now!" They'd be scared to death, okay?

I have a psychological aversion to water.

Xia Ning and Jiang Yi exchanged a glance. There were only a few people left. That would be easy to deal with.

"You wait here, I'll go kill them."

Xia Ning nodded.

The group was still discussing their shift schedule, completely unaware that someone was behind them. Jiang Yi, wielding two machetes, swiftly and skillfully took down his prey one by one.

The second-in-command pointed at Jiang Yi and said, "You..." before collapsing to the ground with a thud.

After everyone had died, Xia Ning came to collect the bodies.

These corpses, exposed to the sun, are prone to breeding bacteria. If disaster victims come to drink water, they are very likely to get sick and cause an epidemic.

The best house in the village was where the eldest son lived. Sure enough, she found dozens of bags of grain, jewelry, gold and silver, and four whole chests in the room.

The other people's rooms also had food and gold and silver, but the quantities were not large and could not compare with those in the eldest brother's room.

She only took the gold and silver; the grain was left for the lucky disaster victims later on.

Jiang Yi smashed the entire vat.

Xia Ning threw the body into the mortuary, poured in some oil, threw down a torch, and quickly left.

She was truly disgusted; she had to suffer the same torment as a few days ago all over again.

"go!"

She never wants to come here again in her life.

Finding a secluded spot, she called for a stop. Unable to bear it any longer, she brought out four buckets of water and clean clothes, saying, "Go over there and wash yourself properly."

She herself also needed to scrub herself thoroughly, feeling that she smelled rotten all over, making her want to vomit.

………………

Xiajia Village.

Faced with the choice between starving to death and searching for food, the Xia family decisively chose the latter.

The resources on the mountain that could be harvested have already been harvested; there's no chance for them now.

"Old woman, if all else fails, let's scrape some tree bark and boil it."

"No, let's go further in. I remember there's a river there. Maybe the river hasn't dried up. Let's go take a look." When she was little, there was a famine, and her mother took her there to find food. She remembered there was water and wild vegetables there.

Are you sure? It really exists?

The old woman wasn't sure, and she remembered that it was very far away, not a place that could be reached in a day.

Seeing her expression, the old man understood everything. "Eldest son, go find some elm bark. Yaozu, you brothers dig up some grass roots."

They wouldn't go inside unless absolutely necessary.

Old Xia was very worried. When he came out, he found out that the elm bark had all been stripped off by others.

While everyone else was stockpiling water and food, his family made no preparations whatsoever.

Now it's incredibly difficult to find what others have missed.
