Chapter 137 No rice or food
It is only Guan Daqi's family. No matter what, it is impossible to ignore these villagers, especially the children and the elderly. Without them, these people's lives will not be able to survive, except for those monsters. , and there are threats from other people. Now it is not only monsters that are scary, but also people.

Bandits have appeared in their village. These people don't know how to reason. They rob food when they have it and arrest people when they see them. This person arrests not only the people who work, but also everyone is unwilling. You said, you might get eaten.

People cannibalize, what kind of life is this? Guan Daqi dare not think about it, let alone other people.

"Dad, do you want to go out to borrow some grain from them?" Jin Niang put the last grain of rice into the pot, and then put some wild vegetables in it. The pot was filled with more than half of the water, but the rice could be counted. , I have been eating these watery soups all day long, and I am really hungry.

"Alas..." Guan Daqi sighed, "Borrow, who has enough food to lend us now? Our family has a lot of people to support. Even if we borrow it, we won't be able to survive for a few days. They still have to eat." Why do you still have so much to lend us to drink?"

"But..." Jin Niang looked at half of the pot of water, and the more she thought about it, the more sad she became. "How will we live like this? It's cold in the middle of winter. If there is no food in the stomach, everyone will be You have to be hungry, you will get hungry."

"I'll think of a way to go. If it doesn't work, I'll go up the mountain."

"Father, no," Jinniang shook her head, "You forgot, when you came back last time, you were injured like that, but you didn't catch anything. Now those animals are much smarter than before. Such a big Snow, they won't come out, even if they go up the mountain again, they will return empty-handed, we can't take such a risk, without you, none of the dozen or so people can survive."

Guan Daqi knew that Jin Niang was telling the truth. He was the backbone of these dozen people. If something happened, there was no telling what kind of life these dozen people would be able to live.
With a creak, the door outside opened. Amid the wind and snow, a man in black walked in, holding a fat rabbit in his hand. However, accompanied by the wind and snow, there was an unpleasant smell of blood. taste.

"Oh my god, Linley, why did you go out?"

When Jin Niang saw the man walking in, she was really surprised and scared, "What are you doing out on such a cold day, but you are injured?"

"Nothing," Lin Lei put down the hare in his hand, but his hand couldn't help but hold his shoulder.

"Brother Lin," Guan Jie also heard the sound of the door and came over quickly. He originally didn't agree with him going out, but Lin Lei's temperament didn't allow him to go out.It was simply smelly and hard. No matter what he said or tried to persuade, he just refused to listen. He had caught a fat rabbit, but he was injured. It was such a winter, and there was no medicine or doctor. The wound Very difficult.

"I'm fine," Linley said lightly, as if he wasn't the one who got hurt, and he wasn't the one who hurt.

Guan Jie grabbed a handful of herbs and put them on Lin Lei's shoulder. At a glance, it was obvious that the shoulder had been scratched by a wild beast. The three scratches on it were already deep into the skin. If it had been left alone, it would have hurt a lot of people. He rolled on the ground, but Linley didn't make a sound. He just looked towards the window without moving his eyebrows or eyes.

Jin Niang cooked the rabbits that Lin Lei brought and cooked a large pot of meat. However, everyone was very sad to eat it. It is not an exaggeration to say that this was obtained at the cost of human life. Lin Lei worked hard for this. They had to sacrifice their lives in exchange for it. They ate it in their mouths but had tears in their eyes.

"Brother Lin, don't go there anymore," Guan Jie put down the bowl. He really couldn't eat any more. As long as he thought of the three bone-deep scars on Lin Lei's shoulder, his mouth would be tasteless and his heart would feel clogged. No matter how good he was, Even when the food came to him, he couldn't swallow it.

Lin Lei lowered his head and said nothing. It took a long time before Guan Jie heard his harsh voice.

"I promised Master to take good care of you. No matter what, I won't let you starve to death here."

Li Zhulan raised her face, looked at this, then that, and finally she lowered her head and ate the rice in her bowl in a muffled voice.

"Knock knock..." There was a knock on the door.

With a creak, the door opened. Linley opened the door, and the people standing outside were Guan Jie and his wife.

He looked at the sky outside and said, "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

Guan Jie lowered his head and held Li Zhulan's hand tightly, "I don't know either. Lan'er said she had something to tell us, so we came over."

"Really?" Linley opened the door, let the two of them in, and then closed the door with a snap.

Li Zhulan walked to the window and looked in the distance for a long time to make sure if anyone was peeking.

"Don't worry, there's no one here," Lin Lei sat aside and said softly. If there was someone, he would definitely find a different smell, and nothing could escape his ears.

"That's good." Li Zhulan closed the window and was no longer so nervous. She came over and shook Guan Jie's hand. Guan Jie was also surprised and didn't understand Li Zhulan's mysterious look. for what?
Li Zhulan took a deep breath before speaking.

"Aqing told me something before he left. He said that no one else should know about this matter, not even your parents or you," she said seriously as she looked back at Guan Jie.

Guan Jie frowned, "What's the matter?" What on earth was Ah Qing thinking about hiding this from him and his parents?
"Yes..." Li Zhulan pursed her red lips and clenched her fingers tightly at her side, "Ah Qing said, you have been to a cave since you were young. The cave is very hidden and cannot be discovered by ordinary people. right?"

Guan Jie definitely remembered this.

He nodded, there is indeed such a cave, "That's because I was brave enough to take Ah Qing to play there. The cave is very deep, very dark inside, and the entrance is very hidden. Over the years, I have also No one has gone in."

"Well, that's it." Li Zhulan also breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she never knew whether what Guan Qing said was true or false. She believed that Guan Qing would not make her up, but what if there was no such thing as Shantong? Or what should I do if Guan Jie forgets?
Well, now that there is a cave, you can find things.

Li Zhulan didn't speak for a long time, until she regained her composure, and realized that the two big men were looking at her, which made her quite embarrassed.

"Actually..." She lowered her head and wring her fingers.

"Aqing told me something when she left. She said, she said..." Li Zhulan's voice became softer, "she said, if one day, when we are at the end of our rope, we can go to that cave, She put some things in the cave. I don’t know if everything is exhausted now, but everyone has been hungry for a long time. If there is something in the cave, we can take it, right?"
