Suddenly, the team stopped, and the four people who were leading the way in front all ran in one direction and surrounded them. It turned out that they encountered a hare, which hopped out to look for food and was discovered by the team.

Wild rabbits are meat, and they run very fast. The four men reacted quickly too. First a sickle flew over, and although it didn't hit the rabbit, the handle still caught on the rabbit's body, slowing it down.

Then another plow was thrown over, and the four of them ran over together. The rabbit had been crushed underneath the plow.

One man grabbed the rabbit, the others took back the tools, and walked happily back to the team.

The villagers have started cheering, "We caught a rabbit, hahahaha..."

Now they are eating together, and the rabbit they catch must be eaten by everyone together.

Although there was only one rabbit for so many people, it was a great joy and anticipation for them as they had not eaten meat for a long time.

Seeing everyone so excited, Village Chief Hu could only comfort them, "Everyone calm down, this rabbit must have been cooked by everyone. This is the prey we found together, and it must be cooked and shared by everyone. When you rest, the prey you catch will belong to each family. I hope everyone can abide by this rule. If someone is found to have secretly gone out to catch prey while on the road and cannot keep up with the team, or if someone catches prey during non-free time and does not share, you can imagine that if everyone follows suit, the morale of the team will be dispersed. Therefore, if this situation is discovered, Hujia Village will not be able to accommodate their family!"

After Village Chief Hu finished speaking, everyone was very happy. This rabbit was enough for everyone to eat together.

As for the rest, they didn't think much about it. After all, they were not professional hunters, and it was not easy to catch prey.

Even if someone had some evil thoughts, they would suppress them after hearing the warning from Village Chief Hu. If they were driven out of the village at this time, they would really have no way to survive.

Liu Caixia and the others were also very happy. They finally saw a living creature. They had Liu Caixia's speed and Liu Caiyun's strength. In addition, the physical fitness of the others had improved after the transformation of the apocalypse. It would be easy for them to catch prey. Unfortunately, they didn't see even a single hair along the way.

When it’s time to rest, they can walk a little further away and catch more prey to store.

There is still room in Xiaolu's space, so they don't have to worry about others being jealous of them for having so many prey.

When the time comes, take out one or two symbolically and show them to others based on the quantity of other people's products.

When the villagers saw someone catch a rabbit, each family quietly took out all the tools they could use, just in case. When they saw the prey, they would rush forward immediately, because they were all meat!

There is also a bow and arrow in the village. It doesn't look very new. It belongs to Hu Youcai, the third son of the village chief. Although he is the third son in the village chief's family, he looks a little thinner than the eldest and second sons.

I heard that working as an accountant in a small restaurant in their local town pays 800 yuan a month, which is considered a good job.

It is reasonable to take out bows and arrows. Many families in their village have slingshots, which they made themselves from wood. I don’t know if everyone in their village has them.

Or it was specially prepared for escaping famine, but it shows that they have a good vision. The people of Hujia Village are successful, and it is not a loss to follow them.

Village Chief Hu sighed when he saw these people unable to control themselves.

"Okay, let's continue on our journey and find a place to stay for the night before dark. If you want to hunt, you'll have a chance later. The further you go into the mountains, the more prey you should find. We can't delay our journey!"

Seeing that the village chief had spoken, the others did not dwell too much on going hunting, and just packed up and continued on their way.

After walking for about three more hours, it was gradually getting dark. They had to find a place to spend the night. This time they couldn't wait until dark to find a place to sleep directly on the spot. In this mountain forest, they must make plans in advance.

Village chief Hu was walking at the front of the team. He was also thinking a lot and was looking for a place to spend the night before it got dark.

Finally, they saw a place that looked like a cave, but wasn't really a cave. Village Chief Hu asked everyone to stop.

"We can't just find a random place to spend the night. There's a small cave over here. Let's pack up and spend the night here!"

In fact, it is not a cave in the traditional sense. The mountain is a concave crack with protruding rock layers on top to shelter from the rain. It is a bit like a triangle. The entrance to the cave is particularly wide and long. Village chief Hu felt that if he missed this place, he might not be able to find one like this in the future. It was getting late, so he decided to rest here.

When the group walked into the valley, it seemed very crowded. After such a long time, everyone had reached a tacit understanding and just went about doing what they were supposed to do. Father and Mother Liu also naturally joined the cooking team.

Some people moved stones to build a stove, some collected firewood, and some dug wild vegetables.

Village chief Hu arranged two groups of people to dig two pits on both sides of the valley, and to pick up more firewood and light them at night to prevent wolves, tigers and leopards.

These animals have a natural fear of fires, so those who have nothing to do in each household help collect more firewood. Only those who have nothing to do are allowed to look around, and whatever they find belongs to them.

At the Wang family's side, Liu Caixia took Xiaolu out to look for things, while Liu Caiyun took Xiaomei to help collect firewood and dig wild vegetables nearby.

The further up the mountain you go, the more wild vegetables there are. Many of them look like they have just grown. They must have been picked by the villagers from the foot of the mountain. There are obviously fewer wild vegetables near the mountain. They must be visited frequently and do not grow that fast.

Xiaomei and Liu Caiyun now have a much closer relationship, and Xiaomei always holds Liu Caiyun's hand wherever she goes.

"There is also that vegetable here..." When she sees wild vegetables, she will take the initiative to help Liu Caiyun.

Liu Caiyun saw that the place Xiaomei pointed to was the same wild vegetable they had picked before.

"Xiaomei is really amazing. Pick more wild vegetables so we can save them and eat them later."

"Yeah, save some and eat it slowly, then you won't be hungry."

The two of them slowly picked some wild vegetables. Finally, Liu Caiyun quickly picked up a large bundle of firewood and went back to the valley to help.

After Liu Caixia saw Jerusalem artichokes on the road and taught Aunt Hu about them, Aunt Hu also taught other aunts in the village. The aunts all gained something from this trip.

Everyone had Jerusalem artichokes and wild vegetables in their baskets, and they took them to the valley to collect them.

Instead of washing the Jerusalem artichokes with water, I wiped them clean with dead grass picked up from the mountains. I also cleaned the rotten leaves and dirt from the wild vegetables and hung them on the kang next to the fire to dry.

After it dries, you can just put a little bit of it in, then wash and cut it and cook it into porridge.

Beside the campfire, the remaining old people and children sat together, their faces filled with happy smiles, their eyes flashing with desire for the upcoming delicious food.

The air was filled with the aroma of firewood and rabbit meat about to be cooked, a long-lost, heart-warming smell.
