The best survival in troubled times

"Host, please put all your thoughts away. I will not help you cheat."

"I didn't say you helped me cheat. You just helped me see who was right and who was wrong. Tell me the right ones and block the wrong ones for me."

"The system won't do that kind of thing."

"Forget it if you don't do it. We'll talk about it when the time comes. Let's first think about how to let everyone discover the chestnut forest.

You said no one knew about it, but you bumped into me when I went there. Is that normal? It’s not normal to even think about it. "

From that day on, Pearl finished reading the book and went for a walk in the mountains every day.

At first the old lady was worried and asked the eldest girl, the second girl, the third girl, the fourth girl and the fifth girl to accompany Pearl every day.

Later, when Zhenzhu became proficient, they no longer accompanied Zhenzhu back and forth because there were people everywhere on the mountain.

Pearl walked to a small mountain col and saw that few people came. Basically no one dared to come, and she didn't know why.

"Why doesn't anyone come here?"

The system didn't say that you, a fool like you, dare to come here. I don't know how many people and beasts died during the war.

Pearl walked forward for a long time.

Finally saw the large chestnut forest, Pearl felt that this chestnut forest.

At least it is enough to feed the village for a month or two, so we have to save on food and can only eat one thin meal a day.

Pearl sees so many chestnuts.

I sat on the ground and picked up all the fallen millet seeds one by one.

After picking it up, I saw that my fingers were a little red, and I realized that I had really adapted well to the environment.

"Should you give me some space in the system? If something unexpected happens in the future, can I still respond?"

The system didn't say anything, and Pearl got many millet seeds into the system's space.

"I can't say that I discovered a kind of food. Isn't that too weird?"

"What's weird? Have you forgotten that you were reading that book? That book is all about crops. Since when have there been all kinds of strange crops?"

Thinking of this, Pearl took a deep breath and looked at the non-existent system in front of her.

"It seems that you have already planned this."

Pearl took out her basket, put a basket of furry chestnuts into the basket, and went down the mountain with the basket on her back.

It was very, very dark when the pearl-backed basket went down the mountain. The old lady was very anxious and asked the village chief.

The village chief really couldn't bring a group of people to the mountain to find pearls.

Just as he was about to go up the mountain, he saw Pearl coming down from the mountain. Just as the village chief was about to speak, he saw Pearl running in front of him.

"Uncle, look what I found?"

The village chief saw a basket of spiked balls.

"Why do you still want to eat it? Everyone is starving to death, do you want to eat it?"

Pearl nodded seriously.

"Uncle, this is really edible. I read in a book that it is edible."

People who come looking for pearls are a little skeptical when they hear that they can be eaten, but they really hope they can find something to eat.

The village chief took a deep breath and felt that the child Pearl had good intentions and should not discourage his enthusiasm, but he really couldn't eat this stuff.

Even if the wild beasts don’t eat it, who can eat it?

"Uncle, you can really eat it. If you don't believe it, just make a fire and I'll make it for you. Just use fire."

Seeing that no one was moving, Pearl looked at her third brother in the crowd.

"Eldest brother, second brother, and third brother help me make a fire. I want to show the village chief that it is really edible. Everyone is starving to death. At least there is something to eat."

The people who followed to find the pearl looked on.

The fire was quickly lit. When Pearl saw that the fire was almost burning, she threw the chestnuts in with their shells.

After burning for a while, I heard a crackling sound in the fire. After the sound, Pearl picked out the chestnuts.

The pearls were ok after being squeezed by hand. Even if they were not cooked yet, they were still edible.

Pearl opened one with her hands and handed it to the village chief. When the village chief smelled it, he really smelled the fragrance.

The village chief took a bite. It was very delicious and had a sweet taste.

The few people who followed all looked at the pearls, and each one took one, peeled off the skin and took a bite.

The eyes of those who had eaten it were widened. They did not expect that this thing was really edible and delicious.

But when everyone looked at the small basket of pearls, they didn't think much of it. Who could eat this basket?

Pearl saw that everyone only ate one or two, and wouldn't eat any more, because everyone was hungry now and knew how precious food was.

Seeing this, Pearl sighed.

"Uncle, go back to the village and quietly ask a few people from each family to come over. Let's go to the mountain to pick it up. We'll go there quietly. If people from other villages find out, they will go there too."

The few people who followed were stunned. They didn't expect that the child found something to eat, but he didn't keep it for himself and wanted to share it with everyone.

The village chief was also stunned. After being stunned, he became excited.

"You really have to take everyone to find the pearl, and you have to share the things with everyone. You found this on your own."

“Uncle, everyone in our village is related, my family has nothing to eat, and there is nothing I can do.

But I found something to eat. Let's all get some. At least we can get through this difficulty, and we will be fine in the future. "

When the village chief heard this, he nodded solemnly.

"Everyone go back quietly and quickly ask someone to stay. The two of you will stay here with Pearl."

Everyone was very fast. They were weak when they came up, but when they came down the mountain, everyone was full of energy.

Wang Fu, Wang Gui, and Wang Ping were all stunned. They didn't understand what Pearl was doing. Shouldn't they keep the food for themselves?

People came out of every house very quickly at night, carrying baskets and other things.

The old lady also came, and all the children in the family, big and small, came, and the little one stayed at home to look after the house.

The old lady gave several brothers a very large basket.

Everyone came to this hillside and looked at the pearls.

"Come on, let's pick up more while others don't notice. If others find out again, we will pick up less."

Everyone didn't even have torches at night, so they set out following Zhenzhu. Fortunately, Zhenzhu had a system to guide him, otherwise he would have been blinded.

Pearl looked back at the people following her, and some of them even stretched out their hands to touch forward. It seemed that they couldn't see anything at night.

Even if he stumbled one after another, he stood up without saying a word and continued walking.

When everyone was almost discouraged after walking with Pearl for a long time, they finally saw this large forest, and everyone had a smile on their face.

"Everyone pick it up quietly and don't make too much noise. It would be bad if people in other villages know about it. Let's not light up the torches. The torches are too obvious at night."
