"Jiuyue, Qiye, what are you two siblings doing? Follow us quickly, we will get lost later."

Now that they have just started to escape from famine, most families still have surplus food. Lin Jiuyue and the two don't have to worry about becoming food on other people's tables for the time being.

But Lin Jiuyue didn't expect that the village chief came back to call his sister and brother.

"Village chief, why are you here?"

The village chief looked at Lin Jiuyue and his brother and sister and sighed.

"I have already heard about you, your uncle and his wife, alas..."

The village chief sighed as he spoke and patted the two siblings on their shoulders.

"You two siblings also have a hard life. You thought that if you lost your parents and gave the house to your uncle, they would take care of you and start a family. Who knew that you and your uncle would turn out to be such people."

I knew before that Lin Dongming and his wife would starve Lin Jiuyue and his brother from time to time. But at least they will give me some food and put my life on the line.

After all, it was a year of disaster, and no one had enough food. Many of the relatives, daughters and sons were hungry. Although Lin Dongming never fed these two children, he still gave them two mouthfuls.

But now that they are on the run, the couple no longer cares about the life or death of the two siblings.

"Hey, it's not easy in disaster years. Don't lose your team. If you get lost, something might happen."

Although there are not many people in the village, they can at least take care of each other if anything happens. If the two siblings act alone, they may die at some point.

Lin Jiuyue was a martial arts coach in his previous life, and now he has the cheating tool of space. He follows the villagers and is timid, which will only hinder the two siblings.

"Village chief, we two siblings want to take a mountain road."

The village chief, who had already left, turned around and looked at Lin Jiuyue in disbelief after hearing Lin Jiuyue's words.

"Jiuyue, this is no joke. Be obedient and follow the villagers. I can also look after you two siblings."

Lin Jiuyue shook his head and refused with a smile.

"Village Chief, you also know that we siblings have no father or mother, and the uncle is cruel. It was fine at the beginning, but if we go further, we might be sold for food."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, he lowered his head.

The village chief finally sighed when he saw Lin Jiuyue's appearance.

"Now that you have decided, I won't keep you any longer."

"However, there are many wild animals on the mountain, so you two siblings must be careful."

Lin Jiuyue nodded gratefully.

"Well, village chief, you too."

Before escaping, Lin Jiuyue had obtained his household registration, and now he was moving separately to prevent his own space from being exposed to the public.

After all, I have to take food out of the space from time to time. This back and forth, maybe when will it be exposed?

After being separated from the villagers, Lin Jiuyue took Lin Qiye and walked into the mountains together.

It has been dry for a long time, and although it is already a hot summer, there are not many mosquitoes on the mountain.

"Sister, huh, tell me, can we find the seeds?"

After walking on the mountain road for three hours, Lin Qiye was already panting from exhaustion.

"I don't know. Let's look for it first. Even if we don't find the seeds, I won't let you starve to death."

"But we've been walking for three hours. We haven't seen a single mouse hole."

Lin Jiuyue pursed her lips.

Due to drought, there are many fewer animals on the mountain than in previous years. Along the way, I didn't see many living things.

"Sister, there is a cave over there! Let's take a rest before leaving?"

Lin Jiuyue had just traveled through time not long ago, and his body had not yet returned to its peak. After walking for three hours, he felt a little tired.

"Okay, let's take a rest before leaving."

The cave is not big, and there are still traces of people living inside. Presumably it should be a temporary stop for hunters going up the mountain to hunt.

But now that everyone has fled, no one should come to this cave.

I originally planned to take out two fish from the stream in space and bake them, but I was afraid that it would delay my journey.

"There's no one here. Let's go into the space and grill some fish to fill our stomachs when we're hungry. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep up with just this little food."

Lin Qiye nodded in agreement.

"Fortunately, I didn't go with the villagers, otherwise I would have to guard against others while eating."

The two entered the space and caught some fish from the stream and grilled them. After a while, the smell of grilled fish wafted out.

No seasoning, not even salt.

If it were before, the siblings would definitely not eat it. But things are different now. Now is the year of disaster. It’s good to have something to eat. Where can I choose the taste?

Fish alone is not enough, you must have salt. It seems that after finding the seeds, we have to go down the mountain.

"Qiye, after climbing over this mountain, we will reach the border of Qingyang County. We will go down the mountain then."

Lin Qiye was stunned.

"Sister, aren't we going to separate from the villagers? When we go down the mountain, aren't we going to be together again?"

Lin Jiuyue didn't want to either, but there was nothing he could do.

As long as you find seeds, you can grow food and other things, and you will definitely have enough food.

But it really doesn’t work without salt. If you don't replenish salt for a long time, you will feel weak even if you are full.

Because of insufficient sodium ion intake!

"Do you want to eat food without salt every day?"

Lin Qiye shook her head subconsciously.

"Then? Let's go over this mountain and then go down."

Each of them ate one of the grilled fish and put the rest in the space. Just take it and eat it when you are hungry.

"Sister, there's no seasoning on this grilled fish. It shouldn't be delicious, but I didn't expect it to be pretty good."

The fish is a fish in space. It doesn’t have any fishy smell and tastes pretty good. It would be even more delicious if there were seasonings.

After eating grilled fish, the siblings quickened their pace and finally made it down the mountain before dark.

On this mountain road, the two of them were exhausted and gained nothing.

And the people in the village don’t know where they are now.

"The mountain road we took is closer than them, so they must not have arrived yet."

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"We are mainly here to get salt. We don't necessarily have to go with the villagers."

"Sister, but the city gates are closed now, where can we get salt?"

After hearing Lin Qiye's words, Lin Jiuyue frowned and said.

"Now, aren't there still refugees? Let's go ask them if they have any salt."

It stands to reason that exchanging salt with the villagers in Lijia Village would be safer, but the villagers in Lijia Village haven't arrived for half a day, and Lin Jiuyue can't just sit here and wait.

Before Lin Jiuyue and the two fled, they had no money to buy salt, but this did not mean that other refugees did not reserve salt.

If a family changes a little, it will be enough for two people to eat for a long time.

"Sister, you wait for me here, I'll go! I'll be back soon."

Lin Qiye was not a real child, so Lin Jiuyue didn't worry too much.
