Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 223: Finding a New Water Source 2

"Well! Although the water in the space cannot be used for bathing or something, but with the stored ice and water, there is definitely no problem for daily drinking." Xu Han also said.

"Is there enough water at home? I haven't gone to fetch water for several days. Let's go fetch water tomorrow morning!" Lu Chuan asked.

"It's almost enough for tomorrow. Let's go get some water first! What if you don't come back for a long time?" Xu Han said.

"We will be there for three or four days at most, and then we'll go wandering around the remote mountains and come back, and by the way, see if there are any large animals moving around here," Lu Chuan explained.

"Yes! It will put your mind at ease if you check it out." Grandpa Zhao also agreed.

After the agreement was reached, everyone went to rest. Another day passed...

The next day, they acted according to the original plan. During the time when Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest were away, Xu Han and Grandpa Zhao prepared a lot of food together, enough for the four people and the dogs to eat for a long time.

Tomorrow I will cook some potatoes, sweet potatoes and other things as staple food for the dogs. The space will be almost full and there will be no room for any extra things.

Because this time Xu Han took a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes from the cellar, cooked them and put them in the space, which caused the space to be almost full!

In this way, Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest were out for four days, and they returned on the fourth night, exhausted.

Xu Han prepared bath water for them, and then took out some food from the space.

After they came out of the shower, they began to wolf down their dinner.

It just so happened that Xu Han and Grandpa Zhao hadn't eaten dinner yet, so they ate a little together.

After dinner, the two of them finally calmed down a little.

Xu Han asked, "How have you been doing these few days? Have you found a new water source?"

Lu Chuan quickly replied, "We found it, but it's quite far from here. We wouldn't go there to get water unless we had to.

Besides, the amount of water there is about the same as that in the valley. If the valley dries up, it is estimated that there will be dry too. "

The Taoist priest also said, "Anyway, it's a way out! Most likely, we won't need that place."

"Yes! There is still water in the space! We are definitely not short of water. In the critical situation, the only problem we may not be able to solve is personal hygiene." Xu Han also said.

"Let's take it one step at a time! Now there is a key issue. When we went deep into the mountains this time, we found traces of tigers. We were afraid that you would be in danger, so we hurried back." said the Taoist priest.

When Xu Han heard this, she immediately became nervous and asked, "Will the tiger come here? Is it far from us?"

“I’m not sure about this, so Xiaochuan and I won’t go out anymore. We’ll just hang out near home more often so that we can find out if anything happens.

There will be no water in the mountains in the future, and there will definitely be other wild animals coming to the valley. The valley is not far from here, so we still have to be vigilant. "

"Then let's all be more vigilant in the future so that we can respond promptly to any situation." Grandpa Zhao also agreed.

"You will have to work hard at home then. Xiaochuan and I may have to be outside more often, not only to watch out for wild animals, but also to watch out for anyone coming here.

And you can only stay at home with Xiaohan, because you are not good at fighting! Hahahaha." The Taoist laughed.

"After listening to what you said first, I thought you finally spoke like a human being. But why did your latter words sound so infuriating? It turns out that a dog can't spit out ivory." Grandpa Zhao said unconvinced.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Xu Han quickly interrupted the topic and said, "Then I'll have to ask Grandpa Zhao to stay at home with me. I'll make more delicious food for you then."

"You see, Xiaohan is the best. When we make it, we won't let him eat it." Everyone laughed when they heard this.

In this way, another month passed by uneventfully, and today is already June.

The weather is really getting hotter and hotter. People can't go out at all. Even if they want to go out for a walk in the afternoon, they can't because it's too sunny.

The sun was like a big furnace, directly surrounding people.

It is impossible to do anything else. The slightest movement will make you sweat all over and the heat is unbearable.

In previous years, everyone would go out after lunch at around three o'clock, but this year, they couldn't go out until after four o'clock and had to stay in the room.

Now Xu Han is four months pregnant. Her belly is slightly bulging and she looks like a pregnant woman.

Because of the hot weather during this period, Xu Han's appetite was poor and she couldn't eat. Even if she ate a little, she would vomit it out. She looked visibly thinner.

Xu Han couldn't eat, which made Lu Chuan very anxious. He begged Grandpa Zhao to think of a solution. Finally, Grandpa Zhao prescribed some tonic medicine, and Lu Chuan felt a little better.

But Xu Han still couldn't eat anything. She only ate a little fruit every day. If she ate a little too much, she would vomit it out. She could only eat in small amounts.

After the nap, Lu Chuan asked eagerly, "Wife, do you want to eat anything? Do you want to eat some fruit? I'll go wash it for you."

"I want to eat grapes. Please wash some for me!"

"Are you still going to eat the wild grapes we picked before?" Lu Chuan felt his teeth aching just thinking about it. He didn't know how his wife could eat so much of it. She ate a lot of the wild grapes that were not used up in making wine.

You know, when Lu Chuan ate it before, it was so sour that he couldn't swallow it, but now his wife doesn't think it's sour at all.

But when my wife finally wants to eat something, I must give her food. Otherwise, it is definitely not okay for her to not eat all day.

So Lu Chuan quickly walked out of the room and started washing grapes for Xu Han.

Because there are two rooms using ice and the demand for ice is huge, Xu Han started making ice directly in the main room.

So the temperature in the main room is not very hot at the moment.

When Xu Han came out of the room, the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao were already sitting in the main room playing chess. The temperature was too high and there was nothing to do at home.

Generally, the Taoist priest and Lu Chuan go out for patrols in the morning and evening, and stay at home during the noon and afternoon.

"Girl, you're awake. How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?" After Grandpa Zhao said this, he began to take Xu Han's pulse as usual.

"I'm much better now. I don't feel like vomiting as much today. I just want to eat something sour." Xu Han said embarrassedly.

"It's okay. Eat a little if you want, but don't eat too much. Everything should be done in moderation. Your pulse looks much better now."

"Yes! I understand, Grandpa Zhao." Xu Han smiled sweetly.
