The two of them had nothing to eat that night.
Qin Zheng was lying on the broken straw mat, but she couldn't sleep.
She silently looked at the hole in the roof and the thatch blown up by the wind.
In the darkness, she could vaguely see Fang Lu's stiff back.
Ever since he came back, he had been sitting there, holding the red headband in his hand, motionless, as if he had become a clay sculpture.
Qin Zheng forced himself to close his eyes and then fell asleep.
The next day, Qin Zheng struggled to get up and went out to look for food, but he found very little, only some leftovers picked up from somewhere.
When she returned to the house, Fang Lu was still sitting there, silent.
She squatted down and tried to use the leftover cabbage roots from the night before and the leftover rice to make a delicious pot of vegetable soup to satisfy her hunger.
The vegetable soup was cooked quickly.
The vegetable soup looked delicious, but it had a bit of a peculiar smell.
But it doesn't matter, hot soup is always good.
After Qin Zheng took a deep breath of the hot air, he slowly tasted the bowl of hot soup.
She left a bowl for Fang Lu and said hoarsely, "Eat some."
Fang Lu's back didn't even move.
Seeing this, Qin Zheng simply ate the remaining bowl.
On the second day, Qin Zheng's harvest was a few meatless bones and a few wilted wild vegetables.
She put these into a casserole and cooked another pot of soup.
Fang Lu still refused to eat.
So Qin Zheng drank it all.
On the third day, Qin Zheng begged for some leftover rock marrow rice and cooked it together with wild vegetables.
Qin Zheng didn't ask for directions this time.
He picked up the casserole and wanted to eat it all.
When the casserole was about to bottom out, Fang Lu finally made a low and rough voice: "Leave some for me."
Qin Zheng stopped and placed the casserole on the ground.
Fang Lu took it over and ate everything inside the casserole.
In the end, he even licked the bottom of the casserole clean.
After Fang Lu finished eating, He Yi fell down and fell asleep.
Seeing this, Qin Zheng pulled over his old cotton-padded jacket and fell asleep.
The next morning, Fang Lu woke up early, put on the shabby cotton-padded jacket and went out.
Qin Zheng leaned on a cane and searched from the east end of the city to the west end of the city, but found nothing.
She returned home exhausted, thinking about what to do tomorrow and what kind of solution she should find.
At this time, Fang Lu came back, looking gray and cold.
In the bleak late autumn, he was still wearing the tattered prison clothes whose color had long been lost, holding tightly in his arms the tattered cotton-padded jacket that Qin Zheng had thrown to him last night.
Qin Zheng raised his eyes and looked at him: "You're stupid, why are you freezing without clothes?"
Fang Lu sat silently in front of the pot, then opened his torn cotton-padded jacket, and there were many plump peanuts inside.
Qin Zheng was stunned: "Where did it come from?"
Fang Lu pursed his lips and said concisely: "It was dug from the ground."
Qin Zheng twisted his eyebrows: "It's late autumn now, and the groundnuts have already been planed.
Besides, I see you are so industrious in grain harvesting.
How could you find so many groundnuts by just one person?"
After the farmer harvested , if you are not careful, there will always be some residue left, so this has become the favorite of escapees.
But now there are so many people fleeing from famine, and they are all staring at them like locusts, wishing they had to dig through the fields where crops were grown.
With so many groundnuts, it is impossible to just wait for a way out.
Fang Lu lowered his head and said nothing.

Qin Zheng lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then a guess came into his mind.
Fang Lu suddenly raised his eyes, glanced at her, and said hoarsely: "It's not what you think."
While waving the dirt off his cotton-padded jacket, he slowly explained: "I went to the field and found a vole hole.
They saved a lot, so I took them all."
Qin Zheng was suddenly enlightened, his brows and eyes suddenly showed joy, he clapped his hands and said, "Great, we will go clean out the vole holes tomorrow."
That night, the two people took out part of the fallen flowers and kept them as food storage.
Then they peeled all the other peanuts, burned the shells on the fire, and boiled the nuts in a pot to eat.
The little voles were all very clever, and the peanuts they picked were all plump and sweet, and the two of them had a great time eating this meal.
The next day, the two of them got up early to look for vole holes.
Qin Zheng asked Fang Lu, "How did you find this vole hole yesterday?"
Fang Lu said: "I heard their movements."
Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Movement" When Xia Lu lay down gently on the ground, put his ears to the ground, closed his eyes, and began to listen carefully.
Qin Zheng stared at Fang Lu who closed his eyes and listened carefully, and raised his eyebrows again.
Fang Lu on the ground didn't care about anything else.
He only listened carefully.
After a moment, his face showed joy: "There is a vole hole a few dozen meters away from here, and it is a big hole."
Qin Zheng nodded and waved the broken shovel with a curled blade in his hand: "Okay, let's go there quickly."
On this day, the two people were busy in the field for most of the day.
Finally, they counted the harvest and found a total of seven vole holes, three piles of groundnuts, two handfuls of corn, and three piles of soybeans.
Qin Zheng patted the full sacks and sighed: "In this year of great famine, these little things underground are living a happy life."
Fang Lu looked at Qin Zheng's usually calm face with a happy look, and his eyes became warmer: "Let's continue digging vole holes tomorrow."
It's much easier to find vole holes than to call "Uncle" on the street. .
Qin Zheng looked at today's harvest, shook his head and said: "No, we will leave here tomorrow and go to the border."
Fang Lu raised his eyebrows.
Qin Zheng explained: "You see, there are more and more victims, and everyone is flocking to Phoenix City.
When the number of victims becomes large, the checkpoint may be closed, and we will no longer be able to get through.
We must enter before the big guys pass.
Now With these, we can’t fill our stomachs, but we can barely avoid starving to death on the road, so that’s good.”
Fang Lu stared at Qin Zheng, nodded, and said slowly: "You are absolutely right."
The two people continued to move forward.
With their good ears on the road, the two people not only came up with the idea of vole holes, but also the idea of bird nests and insect nests.
In short, everything that could be entranced was eaten by these two People looted it.
Qin Zheng was born with the ability to turn rotten food into something magical.
No matter what kind of food she cooked, she could cook it with her skillful hands.
Even though it was unrelated food, it could be cooked with unimaginable combinations to make it taste unique and leave a lasting aroma in your mouth.
So along the way, the two of them lived quite happily.
On this day, they finally arrived at Wangbian Town.
This Wangbian Town is a city in Dayan Kingdom adjacent to Phoenix City.
After passing this Wangbian Town, it is the border of Phoenix City.
Qin Zheng walked all the way here and heard everyone talking.
It turned out that the twenty-sixth ranked housekeeper in Phoenix City lived here.
There is too much wealth in Phoenix City, so it needs many butlers.
Their butlers will be ranked according to their qualifications and abilities.
The one currently ranked 26th in this town.
With a ranking of twenty-six, he is already a very prestigious person in Phoenix City.

This twenty-six housekeeper is not young, it is said that he is over sixty years old.
He is not in good health, he is dry and thin, but he has a bold temperament.
Now a porridge shop has been set up here to help the victims passing through this place.
Qin Zheng touched his belly and suggested, "Let's get a bowl of porridge too."
He was always robbing small animals for a living, so it was time for a change.
Fang Lu would never have any objection to Qin Zheng, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
They had a great idea, but when they arrived near the entrance of the town, they discovered that there were only a few porridge shops, and a group of people crowded around them to grab them.
There were three floors inside and three floors outside.
Where could they get their turn?
Qin Zheng frowned: "You can't lose your life just for a bowl of porridge, that's all."
He said and started to walk back.
But Fang Lu insisted: "Don't worry, I will get you a bowl."
The two people were talking when they heard a commotion from the crowd.
It turns out that although the twenty-sixth housekeeper is old, he is married to a delicate and beautiful woman.
This delicate and beautiful lady is not only one of the most beautiful women in the world, but also has an extremely kind heart.
Now she is coming to the porridge shop in person to share porridge with everyone.
Qin Zheng's eyebrows moved, and Fang Lu nodded and said, "Go and get a bowl, and take a look at this world-class beauty."
Fang Lu said: "Okay."
At this moment, the two people on the side started talking again, and one of them said: "Do you know who this twenty-sixth lady is?
But she has an origin."
Another person said: "How did I know?
Please tell me quickly and don't sell the lawsuit."
Others on the side were disappointed because they couldn't get the porridge.
When they heard this, they all urged the person to gossip.
Although gossip is not as good as porridge, you can forget a little bit of hunger while listening to it.
The man then started shaking his head and talking: "You know Lu Pengfei, the great general in charge of the Yan Kingdom?"
Everyone nodded: "I know."
The man said: "Actually, this twenty-sixth lady is related to our general."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng suddenly noticed that Fang Lu's expression on the opposite side suddenly changed.
She frowned.
The man continued talking: "General Lu has eight sons, all of whom are talented in literature and military strategy.
The youngest among them is called Lu Fang.
You all know it, right?"
Others couldn't help but nodded and said: "Who doesn't know him?
Legend has it that he went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, with a white robe and a white horse, and a three-foot-long silver spear.
He was so powerful that he defeated the famous southern barbarian general Gao Zhang in one fell swoop.
Later, he fought in the south and the north.
Dozens of times, no failure.”
The man nodded and said: "Yes, that's right.
I heard that this is the twenty-sixth lady.
She was originally the unmarried wife of the little white-robed general, the eldest lady of the Xia family.
It's just that the Lu family was After being convicted of treason, the entire Lu family was executed.
The eldest daughter of the Xia family was pitiful and lonely, so she married the chivalrous and kind twenty-sixth housekeeper."
Everyone suddenly said: "So that's it.
If you say it like that, it's really a good story."

They said this, but what they were thinking in their hearts was that it's a pity that white hair matches red beauty, and a pear tree dominates the begonia.
At this time, Fang Lu's eyes were as indifferent as a deceased person, and the fingertips holding the porcelain bowl were trembling slightly.
The idle people on the side were still gossiping about the unlucky Lu family, saying that none of the hundreds of members of the Lu family escaped, and they were all dead.
Qin Zheng moved his lips and finally said with difficulty: "That's all, I don't like to drink that porridge either, let's..."
Before she finished speaking, Fang Lu said: "No, I will get it for you now."
His eyes were as deep as the sea, making it difficult to see clearly, and his voice, without any emotion, was like stone.
It sounds like when rubbing against a stone.
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded and said: "Okay."
After that, she added: "There are many people, so be careful."
Fang Lu held the broken porcelain bowl and turned to walk into the crowd.
There were too many people and they were crowded and pushed.
He cleverly moved forward slowly amidst the pushing.
Qin Zheng stared at his back, only to see that he was still wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket and the colorless prison uniform.
Under his feet were straw sandals that were almost rotten, and his hair was unkempt. tgtgd1806102:
