Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Liu Xiaomei saw her mother coming back with wild vegetables and came over to help her get them.

"Xiaomei, just leave it here. We can use it to make porridge tomorrow morning."

Xiaomei was a little unhappy when she heard that she didn't have to help. She really thought that having wild vegetable porridge to eat was really good. The main reason was that Xiaolu was very kind. She even shared her wild vegetable porridge with her, saying that she couldn't eat so much. She must have said that to make her full. She must be obedient and help them with their work.

"I'll help you clean the wild vegetables. I often help grandma clean wild vegetables. I clean them very well. The wild vegetables I clean can be directly put into the porridge tomorrow!"

So that's how it is. There is no water at this time, so the cleaned wild vegetables are directly put in to cook. Liu's mother was very pleased after hearing this. She touched Xiaomei's head and said, "Xiaomei is so good, but it's too late today. We will clean the wild vegetables tomorrow. Can Xiaomei come to help then?"

When Xiaomei heard what Liu's mother said, she stopped picking up wild vegetables.

"Okay, I'll help grandma clean up the wild vegetables tomorrow."

Liu's mother was very happy because Xiaomei was the first to call someone, and she actually called her grandma. You should know that Xiaomei had not called anyone else yet.

Liu's mother put the wild vegetables aside and decided to put them on the top of the backpack when she packed them up tomorrow morning to avoid them being squashed.

At this time, Hu Youliang from the village chief Hu's family came over and it seemed that he had something to discuss with everyone.

"Uncle, the village chief has called everyone together to discuss the matter! I also want to ask for your opinions. Can we continue to travel together?"

"Okay, let's go. Shall we discuss what to do next?" Father Liu somewhat understood what Village Chief Hu wanted to say. Village Chief Hu was a wise man with a long-term vision, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people left in their village until now.

"Yes, my father wants to go directly over the mountain and not go around to the town ahead. However, the mountain ahead is very big, and it will take a long time to go around it. In addition, more people will choose to go around it. However, it takes longer to go over the mountain, and there is a possibility of danger! So I thought of gathering everyone to discuss it!"

"Yes, if we go over this mountain, we will inevitably encounter unknown dangers on the mountain. We are not hunters. Did your father tell us what to do?"

"My father said the same thing. He wanted everyone to discuss it together. It would be best if someone from each family could come out to discuss it together. Then everyone can go together!"

"Thank you for thinking of our family. If there is anything we can do for you, we will do our best to help you."

"Uncle, you're welcome."

As they were talking, they had come to a campfire, where about ten people were already sitting, including Hu Xiyuan. There were only three children left in their family, and the youngest boy was too young, so she was the only girl who came out to listen. After all, with the village chief grandfather around, she didn't have to make a real decision.

When Village Chief Hu saw that everyone was present, he asked everyone to be quiet. "Everyone, listen to my ideas first, and then discuss, okay?"

After Village Chief Hu finished speaking, everyone else fell silent.

"My idea is to go over this mountain. I also asked about the situation ahead. As you can see, there is a big mountain next to the col ahead. The mountain has no end in sight. If we want to go around it, I heard that it will take at least 20 days on foot. We don't know the situation along the way either.

Judging from the current situation, the village on the hillside is backed by the mountain, and most people should still be in the village. As long as there is food to eat and they are not starving to death, no one is willing to leave their hometown to escape famine.

However, there are more and more people behind us, and the resources on the mountainside are bound to be robbed. Who knows what the situation will be like by then. Fighting will be a small matter by then. What we are afraid of is a large-scale robbery, which will cause even more serious casualties.

If we want to cross this mountain, it will probably take more than thirty days. I heard this from some people in the outside village. I gave them the information about the sweet potato exchange, and I think it should be true. However, there is a problem with crossing this mountain. There may be wild beasts or poisonous insects and snakes on the mountain. These are unknown dangers.

If it is a poisonous insect or a big snake, it can be dealt with by sending people in front to use a shovel and a plow to clear a path, it can be avoided to a large extent.

We are just afraid of encountering large wild animals, such as wild boars or blind bears. Women and children account for almost half of our team, and there are not many strong laborers available. We are worried that we will not be able to protect everyone's safety at that time.

However, that person also said that these large animals are in the deeper mountains. If we just go over this col, these large animals should be fine. The most likely thing we will encounter is a pack of wolves. However, when a pack of wolves encounters a large number of people, they will not actively attack humans. Wolves are very smart and will not actively attack humans when they cannot win.

Everything else is fine, and the mountains are rich in resources. Not to mention the precious medicinal herbs, there are also a lot of wild vegetables and fruits. No one will starve to death. If we come across some precious medicinal herbs, we can save them and maybe they can be used as capital for our settlement when we arrive in Zhongzhou.

Everyone can express their opinions. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, each with their own thoughts. After a moment of silence, a middle-aged man stood up, his eyes firm and steady: "Captain, I agree with your idea. Although we are facing unknown dangers, it is only a matter of time before our resources are exhausted if we stay here. Instead of waiting to die, we might as well give it a try, and perhaps we can find a better way out. As for the problem of wild animals, we can increase vigilance, take turns on duty, and ensure the safety of the team. As for the children, we can make simple stretchers or backpacks, and strong people will be responsible for carrying them through the mountains and forests."

"Uncle Hu, we all agree to cross the mountain. We went to the city and bought some tools. Basically, every man can have a sickle or a hoe. Butcher Hu also has a butcher knife. We may not be defeated if we encounter wild boars or blind bears. As long as they are not a group of wild wolves, we can handle a few of them."

"We just have to find a good place to stay at night, build some fires or dig some traps, and our safety will be guaranteed."

"Uncle Hu, we will follow your arrangements. I think it will be more beneficial for us to cross the mountains. We have basically spent all our money on this trip to the city. If we can find something in the mountains, or hunt some prey, we will not only have meat to eat, but we can also save some for later."

"I agree. We can bring more torches, which can drive away wild animals to a certain extent. Also, don't forget that there are old people among us who know some knowledge of herbal medicine. If anyone is injured or bitten by poisonous insects, they can be treated in time."

Hearing these suggestions and support, a warm current surged in the heart of Village Chief Hu. He nodded, glanced at everyone, and said firmly: "Okay, since everyone has no objection, then we will do it this way. We will set out early tomorrow morning. Tonight, everyone should prepare all the supplies that may be needed, including food, water, torches, simple tools and self-defense equipment. At the same time, we should select a few experienced people to be responsible for clearing the way and guarding to ensure everyone's safety."
