C3 Keng Keng Xi Shan Village

"Oh, oh, oh ~" It was dawn when the rooster next door to Chen Hu's home started to clean his throat. Yun Xiao lay on her bed in a daze.

That day, she was only discovered the day after she fainted. It was so suspenseful for her to ascend to the heavens right after she passed through! The person on the bed had long since turned cold, spending the night in the same room as the corpse. Hehe, she maintained her smile.

The villagers pitied her for helping to arrange a simple funeral and then hastily buried her. It took her several days to catch her breath.

After struggling for a while, she squinted her eyes and got up. She put on the grey coarse cloth clothes, casually grabbed a handful of scattered hair, used a piece of gray cloth to wrap it up, and then used a thin piece of cloth to wrap it up.

"Argh ~" While yawning, Yun Xiao rubbed her eyes and put on her worn-out cloth shoes before pulling out from the mud house. On the left side was a kitchen with tree bark along the outer wall and a small vegetable patch behind it. "To call it a latrine would be a bit of a strain. At most, it would be a pit, a pit about a square meter in size, filled with feces.

Yun Xiao threw down the small wooden bucket and, with a twitch of the rope, scooped half a bucket of water into the bucket.

He wiped his face with the cool well water and used the willow branch to brush his toothbrush. After fetching half a bucket of water and wrapping the rope around her arm, Yun Xiao took the wooden bucket to the kitchen to make breakfast.

"Xiao-Xiao, you're up? Are we going to go into the mountain together today? " A head popped out from the wall next door. It looked very strong, but it was simple and honest.

"Go, wait." Yun Xiao responded and increased her eating speed. She quickly stuffed the sweet potatoes into her mouth and followed Chen Hu out of the mountain with a broken bamboo basket on her back.

"Xiao-Xiao, you've just gotten sick not long ago, why aren't you resting at home for a few more days?" Chen Hu was two years older than Yun Xiao and already 15 years old. He was born tall and sturdy like a small hill, just like his name suggested.

"I'm fine." Yun Xiao laughed heartily, not caring at all.

This village had a name, Bitter Pit. Because it was too poor, and because it was deep in the mountains, the surrounding mountains were like a huge pit in the sky. This poor, forgotten village had finally been found and registered into the case. It was under the jurisdiction of a small nearby county, Fengxian County, and had even been given a new name: Xishan Village.

As the saying goes, living by the mountains and eating by the sea. The people of Xishan Village mainly hunted, farming as a support.

Chen Hu had been out hunting with his father since he was thirteen, and he was officially fifteen years old this year. As for Yun Xiao, she was so skinny and naturally couldn't fight wild beasts, so she went into the mountain mainly to pick some wild vegetables.

"Xiao-Xiao, are you still okay?" Chen Hu turned his head back from time to time. Not long after he had climbed up the mountain, Xiao Xiao's forehead was covered in sweat and his breathing was uneven.

"Yes." Yun Xiao replied with a forced smile.

Chen Hu had set up a trap at a fixed spot. The chances of catching wild beasts were quite high. Occasionally, he would have a rabbit or pheasant. At home, he would have to take care of Yun Xiao's speed.

Hu hu hu hu …. Yun Xiao crawled with her hands on the ground. The two of them finally entered the inner circle of the hunt before noon.

At this moment, Yun Xiao stopped beside Chen Hu's trap to rest. She felt that her chest was being squeezed dry and the pain was unbearable, causing her vision to darken.

"Xiao-Xiao, you look terrible. I'll go to the front. Don't run around. Just sit here and rest." Chen Hu dug a hole in a hidden place and hid it very well. He put a small piece of meat in the hole and then he made a few inverted spikes.

"Yes." To be honest, Yun Xiao couldn't run anymore.
