Chapter 1281 Extra Zhou Su 4
But no one knew how the little guy was in such good health. Two of the original eight people in the team were killed by wild mushrooms, and three fell ill. Only the three of them were left, but he still hadn't fallen down.
Instead, he comforted the other two, "It's okay, we have to live as hard as we can and live our part as well."
The three of them were too big a target, so they had to recruit other children as they went. Gradually, the team grew again and became more than a dozen people.
During the day, Zhou Su followed these people on the road to find food, and at night he hid away and cried alone.
He didn't know if anyone at home was looking for him, as he had been missing for so long.
He misses the food cooked by his family even in his dreams. The fish and meat cooked by his grandma and aunt are so delicious. They are the most delicious things he has ever eaten.
Gradually, the daytime became very cold. Everyone's lips turned purple from the cold, and their hands and feet were stiff. He didn't know if he could still reach the north alive. He only knew that he had to keep going north, hoping that he might meet his family.
At night, a group of people huddled on the ground covered with hay, warming themselves by the faint light of a fire. Rumbling sounds could be heard from their stomachs, one after another.
Everyone was too cold to sleep, holding their stomachs and missing the best food they had ever eaten in their lives.
One person laughed and said, "I want to eat candied haws the most. It's the most delicious thing I've ever eaten. My dad bought it for us during the Chinese New Year. I got one and it was incredibly delicious."
"What I want to eat most is the big piece of meat cooked by my mother. It is stewed until it is soft and tender. When I take a bite, my mouth is filled with oil. It is so delicious!"
……
Finally it was Zhou Su's turn.
Zhou Su held his belly, licked his lips and said, "What I want most is fish. Freshly caught from the river, stewed with some wild vegetables, the soup will be incredibly delicious."
The little boy thought of the fish Zhou Guo and the old man had caught. They were so big. That night, he ate to his heart's content with a big pot of fish. He still couldn't forget it.
Everyone fell silent. Since they couldn't eat anymore, the younger ones started crying.
Someone said, "There's no other way, but this fish is not impossible to catch. As long as we find a river, we can catch it and eat it."
Everyone was excited and said, "Yes, then let's go find a river tomorrow."
Zhou Su said hurriedly, "We have to find a shallow river. We can't go into a deep river."
Everyone nodded, "Yes, yes, yes."
On the second day, everyone really started looking for the river. The river was not easy to find, but they kept going forward and always found the river.
That day, everyone finally saw the river, but the river was so big and deep that there was no place to go down to the shore.
Finally, everyone figured out a way to make the simplest fishing rods out of tree bark and insects. They made seven or eight of them and fished for two or three hours. Surprisingly, they caught a dozen or so fish, all small fish, the largest of which was as big as a palm.
But this was enough to surprise everyone. This was meat, and they hadn't eaten meat for a long, long time.
After the children caught the fish, they found a very secluded place in the valley and discussed how to eat the fish.
"Without a pot, we can only roast it."
"What a pity! It would be great if we could have a pot of such delicious food right now. We would be able to eat it with both soup and dry food."
In the end, the eight small fish were roasted and shared among them. The wild vegetables were stuffed into the fish stomachs, and even the small bones were roasted and eaten. Although there was no soup, everyone was still very satisfied with the meal.
About ten people managed to eat some meat.
"Hey, it would be great if I could have days like this every day in the future, and eat fish every day!"
"What are you dreaming about? Do we still want to eat fish every day? When I was at home, this fish was a rare delicacy. We couldn't even eat it during the Chinese New Year, so we had to rely on ourselves. It's really delicious!"
Everyone nodded. It was delicious. Someone asked, "Zhou Su, is this fish today as delicious as the one your grandma made?"
Zhou Su shook his head. "No, I ate it cooked with soup. It was delicious."
Everyone sighed, "It's normal that we can't compare. I really want to drink some hot soup to warm my stomach right now."
After eating too much dry food, who doesn’t want to eat it with soup?
The children had a hard time, but they kept moving north.
When the team had thirty people, they finally attracted the attention of someone.
Several vicious men smiled and said to them, "You are all good children. Where do you want to go? The uncles will take you there."
In troubled times, children like them have experienced countless hardships and have learned not to trust others easily.
Besides, it was obvious that these people were not good people, so how could they dare to agree?
A group of people looked towards their fire, where there was fire, a rack and a pot, and something was boiling in the pot.
Zhou Su had sharp eyes, and when he saw clearly what it was, he immediately started to retch. The others also saw clearly at this time, and looked at these men in shock and fear.
Someone shouted, "Run!" and everyone scattered and ran in all directions.
Zhou Su was young, but he reacted quickly and ran out.
The men laughed triumphantly.
Everyone was even more frightened by the laughter, and they had only one thought in their mind, which was to run as fast as they could, run for their lives.
They eat people!
Zhou Su burst into tears as he ran because he heard a "dong dong dong" sound behind him. He didn't even dare to turn his head and ran straight up the mountain and deep into the forest.
He took one deep step and one shallow step, no matter whether there was a ravine or a thorn bush in front of him, he ran in all at once, but even though he used all his strength, he was still caught.
The man grabbed Zhou Su's collar and lifted him up, shaking him. His big hand stroked Zhou Su's small face and he laughed, "This is good, handsome."
Zhou Suhun was so frightened that she screamed desperately, "Sister, sister, help! Wow, help! Ah, let me go, let me go!"
I don’t know if God heard his voice and someone really came to rescue them. A few shrill screams coming from not far away made the man who was holding him pause and quickly covered his mouth.
Zhou Su was so frightened that he could not stay still. After being slapped several times by the man, he fainted.
Zhou Su opened his eyes in a daze and saw the figure that flashed past outside the woods. He shuddered all over and wanted to call for help, but he found that he could not make any sound. He could only watch the figure getting farther and farther away.
As his hopes gradually vanished and he was about to be buried in the belly of a human, Zhou Su's mouth drooped and he gave up resistance. Finally, tears shed and he murmured, "Sister."
Zhou Guo, who was walking back, stopped, reined in his horse, turned around and looked into the woods.
Zhou Su gave up resisting and fainted. He felt as if he was thrown away. He didn't know where he was thrown. He just felt pain all over his face and body.
He was rescued in a daze, his face was cold. He opened his eyes vaguely and saw the face he had been thinking about day and night, his powerful sister who could kill a cow with one punch.
