<h4>Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Three Savages Enter the Town</h4>
Wang Qian is very hungry now, but she really can’t stomach this stuff, so she just holds it in her hand, nning to deal with itter.
Around nine o’clock, Xiang Yu took the two on their journey. Xiao Fei cheerfully followed behind Xiang Yu; this was her first time leaving home so far, and she was naturally curious about everything around her.
Xiang Yu walked in the front and started digging something out of the soil, even instructing Xiao Fei to dig alongside him.
These things are translucent, a type of worm living in the earth. Wang Qian just thought this was Xiang Yu’s hobby, so she didn’t take it to heart.
By around noon, Wang Qian’s stomach began to rumble, but she was embarrassed to speak up, since there was really nothing to eat at the moment.
"I’m hungry," Xiao Fei couldn’t help but say first, looking at Xiang Yu with innocent eyes.
Xiang Yu nodded and found a rtively open ce to sit down. He seriously said to Xiao Fei, "You know some things can be eaten raw, right?"
Xiao Fei nodded, "I know, when Dad was around, he took me to catch fish in the water, and he told me there’s a kind of fish you can eat raw."
Xiang Yu smiled and nodded, then took out the worms he dug on the road from his pocket, and with a gentle look, he said to Xiao Fei, "Actually, these can be eaten too."
Xiang Yu said this and then put the worms in his mouth, eating them directly. He knew this was a cruel reality for a child, but they had no choice now; he wasn’t sure how far behind the pursuers were, so they couldn’t light a fire, which would easily reveal their location.
Now they could only maintain their strength this way; Xiang Yu had jungle survival training, knowing what was edible and what was poisonous.
He was worried Xiao Fei wouldn’t eat them, so he tried to encourage her, but underestimated Xiao Fei’s ability to endure.
As Xiao Fei took one out from her pocket, put it in her mouth, and vigorously chewed a few times.
"How does it taste?" Xiang Yu chuckled as he asked, as long as Xiao Fei could eat it, he would bepletely relieved.
Xiao Fei frowned and pouted, "Not good."
Although Xiao Fei said it wasn’t tasty, she still put the second one in her mouth.
Standing aside, Wang Qian immediately vomited; she had never seen such a disgusting scene before.
"Big sister, are you not feeling well? Here, I’ll let you eat mine." Xiao Fei walked up to Wang Qian and offered her ’delicacy.’
Wang Qian quickly waved her hand and vomited again. She took out her mushrooms and said, "I won’t eat that stuff, I have this."
Now Wang Qian didn’t mind the mushrooms tasting bad, she just put them directly in her mouth and ate them.
Now she finally understood Xiang Yu’s words, indeed, the mushrooms tasted quite good now.
The three of them kept walking, resting whenever they got tired. At night, they huddled together to sleep.
Throughout the process, Xiao Fei was always enthusiastic, never falling behind, which made Xiang Yu give her a higher appraisal.
Thus, the three of them walked for a week until they finally stood atop a peak and saw tall buildings in the distance.
Upon seeing hope, Wang Qian suddenly squatted down and wept. Training before was never this tough.
"Big sister, don’t cry," Xiao Fei stood thereforting Wang Qian.
Wang Qian looked up at Xiao Fei, holding her in her arms, and suddenlyughed. Because now, the three of them looked just like refugees, but thankfully they finally saw hope, and could finally stop eating worms.
Seeing hope, they walked with more enthusiasm. Wang Qian led the way in front, her energetic appearance made one think she had taken medicine.
Xiang Yu’s injuries had mostly healed over these seven days, and he stayed at the back, always watching Xiao Fei’s figure.
During these days, Xiao Fei did not ask about her parents, which surprised Xiang Yu.
Looking at her, Xiang Yu felt deep guilt. If it weren’t for him, Xiao Fei wouldn’t have lost her mother.
"Big brother, hurry up, why are you slowing down now?" Xiao Fei came over, holding Xiang Yu’s hand and leading him forward.
This is a small town, not very bustling, but the streets have all the necessary shops.
From afar, Wang Qian smelled a shop selling buns, and at this moment she really wanted to rush over and feast. She never realized she liked eating buns so much.
But before she could rush over, Xiang Yu stopped her.
"What are you doing?" Wang Qian asked somewhat angrily.
She felt the impulse to eat a hundred pounds of buns.
"Do you have any money?" Xiang Yu asked gently.
Wang Qian quickly shook her head; they were wearing clothes provided by women while in the mountains, where money was unnecessary, so naturally, they had none.
Xiao Fei stood in this kind of ce for the first time, and she nervously gripped Xiang Yu’s hand.
Xiang Yu could feel her fear, so he lifted Xiao Fei up and smiled, "No need to be scared, with big brother here, no one can harm you."
Only then did Xiao Fei nod, feeling much more at ease, and then looked at Xiang Yu and asked, "What is money?"
Wang Qian almost choked upon hearing this; such a tempting thing, yet someone didn’t know about it. But it’s not surprising; Xiao Fei is out for the first time, not knowing is quite normal.
"Let’s find a ce with a phone first," Xiang Yu didn’t rush into the town.
With their attire, if they appeared in the town center, they would instantly be news figures.
The town was small, it would probably spread quickly; maybe someone woulde and bully them then.
Xiang Yu didn’t want to stir up trouble, thus remaining very low-key.
They walked a half circle around the periphery, and when they saw an iron sheet shack ahead, Xiang Yu led the two toward it.
These iron sheet shacks usually sold newspapers and lottery tickets, and naturally, offered telephone services.
"Hello, sir, may I use your phone?" Xiang Yu asked politely.
The old manzily lifted his eyelids, and upon seeing Xiang Yu and the others, he jumped in fright, instantly springing up from his seat.
Staring at Xiang Yu for a full five seconds, he then awkwardly smiled and said, "You are human?"
Xiang Yu felt a thousand grass mud horses galloping through his heart, but his face still bore a smile as he said, "We are fleeing hardships, and now we’d like to use your phone."
The old man quickly nodded, "Use it, use it, I also have food here, if you’re hungrye and eat some."
The old man didn’t wonder where Xiang Yu was fleeing from; nowadays, very few people can’t get food, and even fewer are fleeing hardships.
Xiang Yu saw that the old man was a good person, so he picked up the phone.
At that moment, the people behind saw Xiang Yu and the others and started to be shocked.
"Come quickly, there are three wild people here," one young manughed heartily there.
Beside the young man, there were four men, and they allughed heartily as well...
