Chapter 359 Since that’s the case, let’s move some back!
Three days later.
In the Gu family mansion.
Liu Qingcao took the six people from Yucheng and Jian Peng and others to pack up. Starting yesterday, the snow gradually began to fall to the same weight as before the sudden heavy snowfall. Although it was still difficult to move forward in such heavy snow, at least they could clearly distinguish the direction ahead.
These days, Liu Qingcao and her men have been searching hard for food in various places. During this time, she secretly placed 5,000 kilograms of food in an empty room in a house, which was found and moved back by Yucheng and his men.
In the past few days, including the food she released, they found a total of 7,000 kilograms of food.
Jian Peng looked at the grain in the warehouse and felt a little dazed.
When did it become so easy to get food?
Liu Qingcao saw from the corner of her eye that Jian Peng was distracted, but she didn't want to say anything.
This food is indeed not easy to obtain. If she had not taken out 5,000 kilograms of food from the space, seventy or eighty people could only find 2,000 kilograms of food after going out for three consecutive days.
Two thousand kilograms of food may sound like a lot, but there are so many of them. With so little food, they can't last long.
"Jian Peng, are you and your men ready?"
Liu Qingcao suddenly spoke, and Jian Peng came back to his senses.
"We just brought back the things we went to Zhaojia Village a few days ago, nothing else."
Liu Qingcao nodded. The day before yesterday, Jian Peng took a few people who were not seriously injured to Zhaojia Village and brought all their belongings to the Gu family mansion.
Liu Qingcao didn't go to see what was going on at that time, and he won't ask about it now.
"Since that's the case, let's start." Liu Qingcao said directly.
Jian Peng nodded and walked towards the sled where the grain bags were placed, and the people behind him followed closely.
Liu Qingcao stayed there for a while, then turned and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, a man under Jian Peng was frying flour in a wok. His arm muscles could be seen through his clothes.
Liu Qingcao remembered that this man's name was Wu Fu, a name that suited him very well.
"Wu Fu, how much dry food have you prepared?"
Wu Fu turned around, still using the spoon in his hand, and replied loudly with a silly smile, "Girl, everything will be ready before dinner tonight."
Liu Qingcao glanced at the flour bags placed on the wooden bench in the corner. There were still about 300 kilograms of them. This amount would be enough to last until dinner, but if one person was busy until that time, he might not be able to handle it.
"It's too tiring to stir-fry noodles by myself. I'll call someone over to switch time with you later."
Wu Fu chuckled and did not refuse.
He can do it alone, but he will become exhausted after a long time. If someone helps him, he will certainly be happy and feel more relaxed.
After Liu Qingcao came out of the main kitchen, he went straight to the small kitchen next to the main house.
The small kitchen is fully stocked with firewood and seasonings, but there aren't many ingredients.
Liu Qingcao asked Liu Wu to bring her thirty kilograms of rice, a bucket of potatoes and a large basin of dried salted fish.
Liu Qingcao made thirty kilograms of white rice into golden rice crust, boiled and mashed the potatoes, and steamed and cut the salted fish into pieces. When everything was ready, Liu Qingcao put them into pottery jars one by one and sealed them.
"Liu Wu, move these jars onto the sled first. I'll go check on Jun Feng and the others."
In the stable, Liu Qingcao held a large bundle of green fodder and threw it into the stone trough. Not only were the people having a hard time these days, but even the animals pulling the sleds were having a hard time. There was not much green fodder left from what they brought with them.
It will take another one or two months to get back to Qingfeng Town. What should we do to feed these horses and mules?
During this journey, she would secretly feed them spiritual spring water and bean flour in the food space every day, but no matter how much she saved on green food, most of it was still consumed.
It is not convenient to take out a large amount of things in the space, but if not, where would she find green materials for them in the cold winter?
Suddenly, Liu Qingcao had an idea and immediately smiled happily.
"Junfeng, I've brought you another snack. Go and bring your friends over." Liu Qingcao raised the earthenware jar in his hand, touched Junfeng's horse hair, smiled and whispered in front of it.
Junfeng shook his head, his big wet eyes fixed on the earthen jar in Liu Qingcao's hand, then he lowered his tail and walked towards the mule.
After a while, Junfeng brought a group of mules to her. When all the mules saw the earthen jar in Liu Qingcao's hand, their eyes lit up.
Liu Qingcao didn't let them wait long. He took out some bean flour cakes from the earthen jar and fed them to them one by one.
The small earthenware jar is like a magic box, and you can never take out all the things inside.
When the mules and horses had almost finished eating, Liu Qingcao poured warm spiritual spring water into their troughs.
The mules and horses that were chewing bean cakes smelled the scent of the spiritual spring water and rushed towards the water trough excitedly.
Liu Qingcao watched them drink up all the spiritual spring water before turning around and going to the room where Liu Xiao and the others lived.
The injuries of Liu Xiao and the other four have almost healed. Their bodies recover much faster than ordinary people, and today they are able to walk some distance on the ground.
When Liu Qingcao entered the house, he happened to see Liu Xiao walking around in the house.
His speed was not fast, probably because his wounds had not yet healed to normal, and he was not allowed to move too much.
"Liu Xiao, how do you feel today?"
Liu Xiao turned around and respectfully clasped his fists towards Liu Qingcao, "Miss, I feel very good."
"..."
This is what I say every day.
"Okay, go lie down and rest for a while, there's no rush." Liu Qingcao looked at Liu Xiao for a while, and found that he was not forcing himself, so he let go of the worry in his heart.
It seems that they will really not be affected when they set off tomorrow.
"Thank you for your concern, young lady." Liu Xiao raised the corners of his lips slightly and thanked her sincerely.
Liu Qingcao went to see Liu Er again. The injury on Liu Er's abdomen looked extremely serious that day, but unexpectedly he was the one who recovered the fastest.
"Liu Er, even though you are almost recovered, don't try to be stubborn. If you are not completely recovered, you will suffer again."
Liu Er chuckled and patted his head, "Don't worry, young lady. I'm fine."
Even though he said this, he still took it to heart.
After a round of examination, all five people said they did not feel any discomfort, so Liu Qingcao did not change the dressings for them personally.
"Girl, when I went out this morning, I heard from the refugees outside that there is a lot of food in a hot spring villa not far from us." After Liu Wu changed the medicine for Liu Liu, he told Liu Qingcao the news he heard this morning.
Liu Qingcao's heart suddenly skipped a beat after hearing this. She stared at Liu Wu with wide eyes and asked anxiously, "Liu Wu, can you tell me what those refugees said?"
Although Liu Wu was puzzled, he answered truthfully, "The refugee said that he went out with others to look for food yesterday, but got separated from them on the way. Later, he found a large group of people not far from him. They were wearing iron armor, and each of them carried two large bags of food on their shoulders.
At that time, he didn't dare to make a sound and hid far away behind the snow. After the people walked away, he walked in the opposite direction of those people.
He followed the traces of these people and animals and finally stopped in front of the gate of the hot spring villa, but the gate was locked and he couldn't get in..."
Liu Qingcao felt unwell after listening to Liu Wu's words.
The food in this hot spring villa belongs to her!
She never thought that someone would go to this mansion to look for food.
Liu Qingcao was upset, but soon calmed down. These people should be soldiers in the military camp, but she didn't know if they were from General Yang's side.
Thinking of this, she decided to take Liu Wu and the others to the hot spring villa.
Liu Qingcao closed his eyes for a long time before speaking, "Liu Wu, bring some people with you, let's go to the hot spring villa."
"Yes, girl." Liu Wu's eyes lit up and he replied happily.
Liu Qingcao came out of the side room and quickly returned to the main room.
In the space, Liu Qingcao went to the medicine field and picked a large piece of herbs. She planned to use these herbs to make more self-defense medicine powder.
Half an hour later, Liu Wu was ready and came to the main house and knocked on the door. Liu Qingcao put the prepared medicine powder into the medicine box.
After opening the door, Liu Wu smiled and looked at Liu Qingcao, asking about the time, "Miss, everything is ready. When are we going to the hot spring villa?"
Liu Qingcao tightened the medicine box on his shoulder and reminded sternly, "Food is in short supply everywhere nowadays. If you go to fight with others for food, there may be a fight. Bring all your weapons."
Liu Wu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Miss, we all have weapons."
"Then let's go."
Liu Qingcao estimated the time. It would take them about half an hour to get there now. The distance was not short, so he didn't know how they found the person Liu Wu mentioned.
Liu Qingcao got on the sled and left the Gu family mansion, heading south. Half an hour later, Liu Qingcao and the other 25 people stopped in front of the gate of the hot spring villa.
There was no one around the hot spring villa, and the traces of the group's footsteps were covered by the newly fallen snow.
Liu Qingcao looked at the door lock. It was not the one she had hung when she left. It was a new lock that had been replaced by someone.
"Liu Wu, go break it." Liu Qingcao got off the sled and ordered Liu Wu beside him to break the lock.
Liu Wu took out a hammer from the sled board, raised his hand and swung the hammer, and the door was opened by Liu Wu.
"Girl, the door is open." Liu Wu ran excitedly to Liu Qingcao with a hammer in his hand, his big eyes smiling into crescent shapes.
Liu Qingcao bent her lips slightly and said, "Let's go. Let's go in first while there is no one around."
Liu Qingcao's thoughts were very simple. There was no way she would accept the food here anymore, but it was not her character to not take any at all.
The return journey would take a long time, so if they could take some food from here, they wouldn't have to look for food on the way back.
As for the people in front, Liu Qingcao guessed that they were not on good terms with General Yang, otherwise, how could this place be so peaceful.
However, Liu Qingcao was not worried that General Yang would not know about it. After all, everything they did had already been secretly seen by General Yang's men.

At this moment, I guess someone has probably gone back to report the news.
She believed that as soon as they left, the hot spring villa would be heavily guarded by Yang Jingyong.
General Yang got the food here. As long as he arranged it properly and didn't waste it, they wouldn't have to worry about food in this snowy day.
Liu Qingcao led Liu Wu and others towards the villa. The villa was very big, and Liu Qingcao had placed the food everywhere. After a while, they stopped in front of a house.
Liu Qingcao estimated the food they would need for the return trip and went towards the warehouse.
The room was filled with food, leaving only the aisle in the middle. Liu Qingcao estimated that there were about 25 tons of food here, which was enough for them to eat until Qingfeng Town, and there would even be a lot left over.
"Move all the food out of this room." Liu Qingcao ordered expressionlessly.
Liu Wu snapped his fingers excitedly, his eyes filled with joy.
With these foods, we no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat or being unable to sleep at night due to hunger.
"Let's go and take these back."
When the people behind Liu Wu saw the piles of grain, they couldn't wait to move them. Liu Wu waved his white hand in the air, and a group of people quickly came into the house and started moving the grain.
Liu Qingcao looked outside the villa, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Those people hiding in the dark must be so angry that their eyes are red with anger.
Three men in white were hiding among the snowy trees outside the villa. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to spot their figures.
The three of them stared at the people in the villa until they saw someone carrying bags of food coming out. After a moment of stunned silence, they didn't think much about anything else.
Only three quarters of an hour had passed and they could hardly believe their eyes.
"How much food is there in here? These sleds are almost loaded, right?!" The man lying on the tree branch looked at the food that was still being carried out, his breathing quickened.
The man next to him also had an expression of disbelief on his face.
This couldn't be some wealthy businessman's grain storage farm!
"Xiao Shi, go back and tell the general about the situation here and see what the general decides." The man leaning against the tree trunk whispered to the man on the branch.
Xiao Shi looked in the direction of the villa, nodded heavily, and left.
The man leaning against the tree branch looked into the distance, his brows suddenly frowned, and he pointed his finger into the air.
"Yang Jiu, look over there."
Hearing the voice, Yang Jiu looked in the direction the man was pointing, his eyes suddenly filled with anger. He turned around and exchanged glances with the man leaning against the tree branch, a dark look flashing in both of their eyes.
"Mu Feng, I'll go and take a look. You stay here. If Miss Liu and the others get into trouble, go and help them."
After saying that, Mu Feng left without waiting for Yang Jiu's reply. The place where he had been was left with the white snow fluttering even more vigorously.
Liu Qingcao was dazzled by a faint shadow, but when he looked closely, there was nothing there.
"Are you dazzled?" Liu Qingcao muttered softly.
Liu Wu came closer, tilted his head and looked at Liu Qingcao in confusion, "What's wrong, girl?"
"It's okay." Liu Qingcao retracted his gaze and looked at the sled he brought today. "Take it back when it's full and come back later. These grains must have someone else. We can't just take them for nothing."
Liu Wu also nodded in agreement, then she frowned and said in a low voice, "But girl, if we don't take it, then if someone finds out, they will take it away. The owner of the farm won't be back for a while, and we don't know who will get the food. I hope it won't be those corrupt officials!"
Liu Qingcao smiled and shook his head, jokingly saying, "Liu Wu is still a kind-hearted person."
Liu Wu was stunned, and his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. "No, I just feel bad that good food will be wasted."
Liu Qingcao smiled and said firmly, "Don't worry, the food in this farm will not be taken by bad guys."
Liu Wu's eyes lit up and he asked, "Miss, have you already made a guess?"
"Yeah." Liu Qingcao looked at Liu Wu, who was looking at her curiously like a child, and nodded with a smile.
After getting the answer, Liu Wu tactfully stopped asking further questions.
At this time, the remaining empty sled boards were also filled with grain bags, and Liu Qingcao led people back to the Gu family mansion as if from Yucheng.
The rest of the people continued to move the food out of the house.
Yang Jiu lay between the tree branches and saw Liu Qingcao and the others going back and forth again and again. From his initial shock to his current calmness, he no longer speculated about the amount of food in the farm.
He quietly crawled among the tree branches, his eyes occasionally falling on Liu Qingcao and his group.
In the distance, a very fast figure was moving quickly in the wind and snow. Yang Jiu stared at it closely with his eyes fixed and his body slightly bent.
Mu Feng landed lightly on the branch beside Yang Jiu, his brows knitted and his face dark.
Yang Jiu had been with him for a long time, and as soon as he saw the look on his face he knew that this was not a trivial matter.
"What's going on? Are we seeing things?" Yang Jiu asked.
Mu Feng nodded with a dark face and did not intend to elaborate. "You watch here first. This matter needs to be reported to the general. I will go back to the barracks first."
"Okay, leave this to me." Yang Jiu knew the seriousness of the matter and accepted the job without hesitation.
Liu Qingcao didn't take the two people on the snow tree seriously, but as soon as Liu Qingcao discovered the group of people that Mu Feng was tracking, she sent someone to follow them quietly and find out the news.
Ma Chuzi was a very skilled man, so Liu Qingcao sent him to follow the group of people. At this time, he stood respectfully in an empty room and said, "Miss, I followed the group of people as you ordered. They are indeed Beiwu soldiers, but they don't act like General Yang's men."
"Tell me in detail what the anomalies are."
Ma Chuzi thought about it and described his discovery in detail.
"Girl, not only are the soldiers' food not affected at all by the snow disaster, but they are also wasting food." Ma Chuzi paused, looked at Liu Qingcao, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Liu Qingcao frowned, looked up at Ma Chuzi, and said expressionlessly, "Just say it directly, there's nothing to worry about."
Hearing this, Ma Chuzi gritted his teeth and spoke, "In a house three miles from the military camp, they killed people and ate their flesh, and raped and abused children."
Liu Qingcao paused for a moment, and her expression turned ugly. She paused, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "What a bunch of wolves in sheep's clothing."
Ma Chuzi lowered his head and looked down. He was very angry when he saw the behavior of those people.
Although they were forced to do nothing good during this period by the Third Prince's men, they did not commit any acts of abusing or killing children, women or children.
However, they did not do these evil things, but if he told others about it, I'm afraid few people would believe him.
Liu Qingcao was secretly sad for a while, and suddenly remembered something, "Ma Chuzi, when you went to chase these people, did you find anyone else?"
Ma Chuzi was stunned for a moment, then he slapped his head and said in annoyance, "If the young lady hadn't told me, I would have really forgotten about it."
"What's wrong?" Liu Qingcao had something in mind.
"When I went to chase those people, there was indeed a man in front of me. He followed not too far away. When he arrived at the place and saw what those people did, he left first."
"Don't worry about this matter. Go outside and help first." Liu Qingcao thought. At that time, she thought she was seeing things. It was most likely the person that Ma Chuzi was talking about.
The last bag of food in the room was loaded onto the sled, and Liu Qingcao led everyone back to the Gu family mansion in a happy mood.
Outside the gate of the Gu family mansion, many refugees came out of their snow houses in the cold wind and heavy snow to see the fully loaded sleds being slowly slid into the Gu family mansion.
