The dogs pulled the sled into the village, but no one came out to ask.
Cheng Qianxun found an unoccupied and unlocked house and went in.
He looked at the dust inside and found that it had accumulated for at least half a year.
Rudolf and Gordon began to move the contents of the sled inside, and the dogs were led into the house.
Don't be afraid of trouble.
The things above are either food or protection from the cold.
If there is any shortage of supplies, it will be a loss.
"Hurry up and you can eat when you're done."
Cheng Qianxun went to the house to get a pot and went to the well at the door to get water.
It's a pneumatic type.
Before getting water, don't forget to look inside.
If there are any bodies, go get some snow.
She pressed the long handle several times, and water came out of the spout.
After rinsing the pot, the water for the second time was put in and boiled.
She was very careful about eating meat this time and couldn't expect her teammates to leave some for her.
Even Rudolph, who was "relatively related", couldn't help but eat her share.
Boiled the water, washed the potatoes, asked Gordon to go out and pour the water, and brought in another pot of water.
Then he took out the dried meat that was starting to freeze even if it was placed in the quilt, cut it into slices and threw it into the pot.
The potatoes were also put into the pot and burned.
The originally deserted room already felt warm.
Rudolf went to find some hay to lay on.
The dog would be more comfortable lying on it.
Cheng Qianxun brought another pot to Gordon: "Go out to fetch water, and don't forget to wash the pot."
Gordon, who was sitting at the dining table, shouted: "Why is it me again?
I've already drawn water just now.
I'm changing people this time."
"Okay" Cheng Qianxun nodded furiously: "You don't want to eat dinner later."
"Why?"
Gordon jumped up suddenly: "I protest" She was the hungrier person at this time, but Gordon came to bargain, whether he wanted to die or not.
Cheng Qianxun held up the knife and looked at him sinisterly: "You can only eat if you work.
Go and get water.
You will need to drink this water tonight and tomorrow."
Although the knife was meant for cutting meat, it had already killed five people.
Gordon was frightened and obediently took the pot and went out to get water.
While I was eating, someone knocked on the door.
Is a local resident.
Without exception, it was an old man.
Gordon went to open the door, and the other person stood outside the door with a reserved look.
He said politely: "I thought this family was back, so I came over to take a look."
This shows that the house does not belong to them.
Gordon frowned: "We'll just sleep one night and leave tomorrow.
Just leave it alone."
After that, he closed the door.
"What are you doing?"
Cheng Qianxun shouted, and she walked over from the dining table.

Instead, Gordon held the door nervously: "You won't kill people again, will you?"
Cheng Qianxun rolled his eyes in anger, pulled down Gordon's hand, opened the door, and said with a smile: "It's very cold outside, come in and sit down."
After the old man came in.
He also took off the hat he was wearing, obviously he was educated.
"Come to the table quickly and get a chair."
Cheng Qianxun greeted, walked to the pot, and scooped half a bowl of soup into the pot with a spoon.
He brought one or two pieces of potatoes with him and said, "You can eat some too.
These are all brought by us.
We don't bring much, so don't dislike it."
"How can this be so embarrassing..."
Although he said this, the old man walked inside, sat on the chair, and took the bowl with trembling hands.
Drink the soup.
Judging from his appearance, he didn't even have time to blow on the soup, which was so hot.
He looked like he was still drinking it.
And the coat he is wearing and the black hat he is wearing should be considered an intellectual here.
He must also be short of food and clothing, so having some soup is already pretty good.
Cheng Qianxun also ate quickly, otherwise others would be greedy for the potatoes and meat slices in the bowl.
For a while, the table was filled with the sound of sipping soup.
After drinking, the old man took out his handkerchief.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and thanked her, but kept his eyes on the soup pot.
Cheng Qianxun sighed slightly, stood up, and scooped another spoonful of soup into the bowl.
"Thank you, thank you..."
The old man took it with a smile, his face covered with wrinkles.
Anyone who has never experienced food shortage will not deeply understand that sometimes, even a sip of soup is the greatest happiness.
Even "dried mummy meat" that modern Europeans don't eat at all, plus some potatoes without the skins removed.
After finishing dinner, Cheng Qianxun didn't need to say anything.
He said that he was leaving early tomorrow morning.
The old man refused to disturb him and stood up to leave.
Cheng Qianxun stopped shouting and asked: "Excuse me, are there many wild beasts around here?
As long as there are living creatures."
The old man stared at the sharp knife on her waist several times and replied: "In this weather, even wolves are rare.
Try not to go out at night, in case you encounter a few.
Other things are hiding, very It’s hard to catch.”
She sighed slightly: "Forget it, we'll just stay for one night anyway.
We don't have much to eat, and we're thinking about hunting.
Although wolf meat is a bit rough and tough, it's still edible when you're hungry.
We'll talk about it after dawn tomorrow.
Well, I hope there will be more food in the next village.”
If they don't have much food and they kill even hungry wolves to satisfy their hunger, it means they are not easy to mess with.
After hearing this, the old man nodded and said that he could cross the border in half a day's journey.
After crossing the border, the next village might have more food because it would take less time to occupy.
In fact, Cheng Qianxun also understood, and the other party also said that this place is poor and useless.
If you want to rob or steal, go to other places.
Don't stay any longer.
Both parties' goals were achieved, Cheng Qianxun politely sent the old man out and closed the door.

As soon as the door was closed and she didn't have time to sit down and rest, she started to ask her two teammates to get up and look through the entire house to see if there was anything that could be eaten or used.
Before Rudolph could speak, Cheng Qianxun took the lead and said: "This family may never come back.
Let's find a way to survive first.
We don't have much to eat.
At worst, we will have the conditions in the future.
See you when we come back.
When the family comes back, just give it back to them.”
"Well, if you have the chance, don't forget to return it."
Rudolph compromised and started to rummage.
There was nothing to eat in the house, nothing, not even garlic.
There will be no more rats.
Even rats here can starve to death.
Cheng Qianxun rummaged through and found something useful: "Give" each of them a knife.
Rudolph was a fruit-cutting knife, and the boning sharp knife was given to Gordon.
"Will you use it?"
Cheng Qianxun looked at the two of them grabbing the handle of the knife like two fools and looking at the tip: "From tonight on, you should always keep a knife by your side, you can put it under the pillow.
You can also put it under the mattress, wherever you can.”
"Does it need to be like this?
It must be uncomfortable to lie down and sleep like this..."
Gordon muttered.
Seeing Cheng Qianxun's eyes, he quickly said: "Okay, I understand, as you said."
Seeing his teammates holding knives like amateurs, Cheng Qianxun reluctantly pulled out the knife tucked into his waist and began to hand it over: "When you encounter an enemy holding a knife in his hand, don't hold it like chopping vegetables, hold it backhand. , the tip of the knife is pointed at myself, and the other hand is raised to protect myself.
Pay attention to my wrist movements. " Place the knife against your forearm and then bend your wrist inward.
The tip of the knife will be raised and you can stab the opponent like a poisonous snake, leaving the opponent defenseless.
You must rely entirely on experience and luck to make judgments.
As long as you are not afraid of death or injury, you can definitely make the other party suffer.
Fortunately, her two teammates were very studious and had been watching and listening carefully, which made her feel quite gratified.
"Practice more and you will be fine."
Seeing her two teammates starting to sign, she inserted the knife into her belt and looked around the house for anything missing.
Maybe she would put the food in the comparison A secret place.
Cheng Qianxun recalled while searching.
In fact, the attack skills and sword skills were taught by the two of them step by step.
In order to give her some self-defense skills, the two teammates could teach her while discussing which moves would be more suitable for her and save more effort.
Really, without these teammates who spared no effort to help her, she would never have been able to live as long as she did. . .
Just as he was thinking with gratitude and warmth, he heard an "oops" sound and the crisp sound of the knife falling to the ground.
Turning around and looking over, Gordon picked up the knife from the ground with a smile on his face: "It's just a miss."
He started practicing awkwardly again.
Why was it that every time the confidence she had finally built up was destroyed by each scene or their impassioned speeches, it made her want to cry.
There was indeed nothing, Cheng Qianxun paused.
There were two beds in this house, and one was obviously for the child to sleep on.
Place a chair against the door, close the window, and place something in front of the window that makes a sound when touched.
This is just to prevent some unprofessional people from entering the house with evil intentions.
After lying down, Cheng Qianxun closed his eyes and fell asleep.
He was too tired.
If someone comes in, die if you want, otherwise you may not be able to survive the whole day tomorrow.

Another day started.
After getting up, the first thing Cheng Qianxun did was to wake up his two teammates.
After all, Rudolf had been in the army and woke up as soon as he shouted.
"Well, miss, please give me a name..."
Gordon turned over, slapped his mouth a few times, and fell asleep again.
Cheng Qianxun thought for a while and suddenly shouted: "It's time to eat" "Ah, it's time to eat, it's time to eat..."
Gordon suddenly sat up, got out of bed, walked to the dining table and sat down, blinked his sleepy eyes, yawned and said, "Well , give me a little more.”
Cheng Qianxun was really angry and funny.
He wanted to punch him and wake him up.
I had to roar like a lion: "What to eat?
If you don't have anything to eat, go to work."
The dried meat, which had been frozen hard, began to cook, as well as the potatoes.
After getting a bowl of potato soup, Rudolf asked worriedly: "Cousin, is there anything left to eat?"
"The meat can still be eaten until tomorrow, and the potatoes will be eaten the day after tomorrow."
Cheng Qianxun wrapped the cooked meat and muttered to himself: "It doesn't matter.
Fortunately, there are enough people.
If it doesn't work, just kill someone."
Bar."
After wrapping the meat, she raised her head and saw Rudolph and Gordon staring at her with interesting expressions
