Crossing the famine: The hunter's wife has good farmland

Chapter 96 Something Happened

"Amazing, really amazing! I didn't expect that your Great Huan Kingdom already has such an amazing lighting tool. It seems that our tribe is too backward. I can't even imagine such a thing! Even if I see it now, I don't know where the light comes from and how it is emitted!"

Mo Xiaonian smiled guiltily, wondering if Fu Cang would be disillusioned when he saw the real Dahuan Kingdom.

In fact, the Dahuan Kingdom was just a large tribe, and this kind of flashlight could not be found there.

In order to divert Fu Cang's attention from the flashlight, Mo Xiaonian could only try her best to find conversation with him.

"By the way, Fu Cang, you should have headed home when the snow started falling. Why did you waste so much time on the way and completely lose your way in this heavy snowstorm?"

“Because Wang Caigen fell into a very deep pit, we spent a long time trying to rescue him. By the time we rescued him, it was already dark. Because of the heavy snow and wind, we had no way to light a torch, and I couldn’t find the tree where I left the mark. I could only wait until daybreak to look for it, and then we found a big rock.

At first we wanted to light a fire to keep warm and roast some prey to eat. As a result, we finally lit the fire, but found that it would not last long. We couldn't find dry firewood, and the snowflakes put out the fire in a short time.

There was no other way, we could only dig a snow cave with the help of rocks, use branches as support, and then we all got in there.

Our original plan was to hug each other for warmth, and encourage each other not to fall asleep, but Xiao Nian, you don't know that it was very difficult not to fall asleep in that cold, sleepy and desperate situation. In order to stay awake, I used a dagger to cut my palm several times, but even so, I finally couldn't hold on and fell asleep. If you and the sickle hadn't come, we would have really frozen to death in that big snow pile today!"

Hearing that Fu Cang had cut his hand with several large cuts, Mo Xiaonian felt heartbroken and hurriedly pulled Fu Cang's hand over. On his hand holding the flashlight, she saw several deep wounds that had not even been bandaged.

"It's not that you're sick, Fu Cang! How could you be so cruel to yourself? Even if you wanted to wake up, you could just make a small cut. How could you make such a deep cut? And you didn't even bandage it. It's so cold, what if the wound gets frozen and gets infected!"

While scolding Fu Cang, Mo Xiaonian took off the wool tube on the outside of her gloves and put them on Fu Cang's hands without saying a word.

"You can't fit into my gloves, so use these to keep warm first. Give me the flashlight!"

"I do not!"

Fu Cang unexpectedly became stubborn and refused to let go of the flashlight.

"This thing is so good, I like it so much, please let me hold it for a while!"

Mo Xiaonian suddenly felt like she was facing a naughty child and really wanted to kick him a few times.

"If you like, I can give you this flashlight when we get back, but you have to give it to me now. Put your hands in the flashlight and don't take them out again!"

Fu Cang's eyes immediately lit up.

"Really? Are you really willing to give me something this good?"

"Here you go, here you go. There will be better things in the future, and I'll give them to you then. But now you have to listen to me and protect your hands!"

"Okay, I listen to you!"

Fu Cang finally handed the flashlight to Mo Xiaonian obediently, but his wound had just caused a lot of bleeding, and now the blood was frozen to the flashlight. Mo Xiaonian was really angry, and she got a lot of warm water to separate Fu Cang's hand and the flashlight.

Mo Xiaonian watched Fu Cang hide his hands in the woolen tube before she felt relieved. She picked up the flashlight and followed the mark towards home. When it was dawn, they finally returned to the tribe.

Mo Xiaonian and Fu Cang thought that the people in the tribe must have stayed up all night and were waiting for their return, so they walked faster and faster as they got closer to the tribe. However, what they didn't expect was that when they got close to the cave, there was complete silence. The wooden door at the entrance was not closed, but was wide open. The dark entrance was like the mouth of a giant beast.

Fu Cang immediately restrained his relaxed expression, pressed down Mo Xiaonian's flashlight, and at the same time raised his other hand and made a backward gesture.

All the hunters stopped moving and no longer made any sound.

Mo Xiaonian quickly turned off the flashlight, hid behind Fu Cang and asked him quietly.

"Something happened in the cave?"

"Something has definitely happened. The rest of you should hide where you are. Scythe, go to the red pine forest to find the Huqin tribe and see what's going on there. Baiji and Shitou, come with me to the cave entrance to take a look."

Everyone became nervous.

This is their home. Their women and children are all in the cave. No accidents can happen.

The sickle was moving very fast and had already gone around the back into the red pine forest. Mo Xiaonian saw Fu Cang was about to go over and hurriedly put the flashlight into his hand.

"This is a switch. If you press it once, the beam of light will appear. Press it twice for a super strong light, and press it three times for strobe mode. In the darkness of the cave, you can shine a strong light into their eyes and they won't be able to see anything. You can seize the opportunity to attack them!"

Fu Cang nodded, pressed Mo Xiaonian's shoulders and pushed her to the middle of the hunters.

"Protect her and pay attention to my signal!"

After Fu Cang finished saying these words, he took Shi Tou and Bai Ji and ran towards the cave entrance.

Mo Xiaonian was extremely nervous.

She didn't know what had happened to their home. Everything was apparently fine when they left. Yue Lu took the men out to look for Fu Cang, and the women were anxiously waiting for the men's return in the cave. It was absolutely impossible for everyone to go out. And now that the entrance to their cave was wide open, there must have been a big problem.

Fu Cang was not a reckless man. He took Baiji and Shitou and tried his best to hide their bodies in the darkness, approaching the cave entrance in a stealth manner. At this time, the sickle had returned from the red pine forest.

"Where's Fu Cang?"

"He took Brother Baiji and Brother Shitou to the cave entrance to check the situation. Is there anything unusual in the Huqin tribe?"

"All the people in the Huqin tribe are gone, as if they disappeared out of thin air. Something big must have happened here!"
