"Alright, let's play. It's all up to you, General."
Zhao Kun bowed respectfully, "Then how does the General plan to play?"
"One of the tokens I left you contains a chip. You can mobilize our brothers at any time in case of an emergency."
Zhao Kun was startled, he quickly took it out and examined it back and forth, scratching his head and saying,
"Boss, has my program atrophied? I actually haven't read any information from it from the very beginning."
"It's been too long since it lacked energy, it might really have atrophied," Tuoba Yan said, looking up towards the direction of Nanming City.
With his own strength, he would definitely be able to fight against Qi Mingwang's army. Then he would go find Nanming Wang and acknowledge him as his father.
As for Ah Jiu.
It was getting late, and the family of four was freezing. They had no choice but to hide in the woods and gather a large pile of dry leaves. The few of them huddled together, intending to spend the night.
"I think this kid Tuoba Yan is not only useless, but also has a problem with his head," Meng Shaode had said no less than ten times along the way.
"Where did this bastard kid pop out from?" Cai Lihua was also indignant. The root of all their troubles was that he had actually set his sights on her precious daughter.
Ah Jiu had been silent the whole way. She had also noticed that Tuoba Yan was very difficult to communicate with, and was also stubbornly persistent.
But this was the first time he hadn't followed them, and she was somewhat worried.
When he fainted from seeing blood, he stopped breathing, his pulse disappeared, and he was like a dead person.
No, that wasn't right. He seemed to be a ghost in the first place, so how could he have breath and pulse?
For a moment, Ah Jiu's mind was in a daze.
"Gulp!" Cai Lihua awkwardly touched her stomach, and a rustling sound of dry leaves followed.
"Are you hungry? Why don't I go out and hunt? We can't always eat fruit in this cold weather; the more we eat, the colder we get."
Meng Shaode said this, crawled out of the dry leaves, patted the leaves off his body, and then crossed his arms and shivered.
In such cold weather, what animal would come out to forage?
But Meng Shaode still forced himself into the woods.
"Mom, I'll start a fire. We're not within Nanming City's territory anymore, so we don't have to be afraid of anything."
Ah Jiu took out a flint and steel and struck it a few times. First, thick smoke rose, and then the flames began to flicker from small to large.
Cai Lihua, shivering, rubbed her shoulders vigorously and kept adding branches to the fire. Gulp, gulp.
Her stomach rumbled so loudly.
"Jiu'er, you still have apples, right? Let's roast a few on the fire," Cai Lihua suddenly remembered this.
"You can roast these too?" Ah Jiu took out four apples from her spatial storage, took two in each hand, and handed them to her mother with suspicion.
"Yes, when we settle down, Mom will let you try barbecue." To Cai Lihua, everything in the world could be roasted. As soon as cooking was mentioned, Cai Lihua's spirits were fully revived.
"Barbecue? Burning and roasting?" Ah Jiu looked at her mother suspiciously.
"Look at you, there are so many things you haven't eaten or seen. When the time comes, we'll roast meat, vegetables, and tofu, sprinkle it with cumin, and it will be absolutely delicious."
Cai Lihua took down the bundle behind her and caressed it affectionately. As she spoke, she even drooled:
"Without ingredients now, this set of good knives is really being wronged."
Ah Jiu felt a pang of heartache. She immediately remembered that she could exchange for a pregnant ewe in her spatial storage.
Father was actually right. It was already late autumn, and eating fruit was too cold. In another month, it would probably make her teeth ache from the cold.
"Mom, do you think we can bring a pregnant ewe with us when we're fleeing from famine?"
Ah Jiu asked tentatively.
"What? A sheep?" Cai Lihua had been thinking about barbecue just now. If there was a sheep now, wouldn't the grilled lamb skewers be so delicious they'd make her tongue fall out?
"Jiu'er, do you have one in your spatial storage? Where is it? Hurry and give it to Mom, and then Mom will let you try grilled lamb skewers." Cai Lihua's saliva was already flowing.
"Okay." Ah Jiu looked at her mother's expectant eyes and quickly squinted, instantly entering her spatial storage.
