Chapter 868: How Long More Will It Take?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wei Ling was worried that Su Xiaoling would ignore her.

However, her worries were unnecessary. Su Xiaoling swayed and stood up, carrying the firewood to Wei Ling’s side.

She threw the dagger to Wei Ling.

She picked up the bird skin herself and sat back down. She turned the skin over and held it between two branches before roasting it on the fire.

The bird fur was charred.

Su Xiaoling took it out and hammered off the ashes before continuing to roast it.

There was not much meat on the bird skin, but for them, a little meat was still meat.

If they could clean it, there would be more food.

Wei Ling looked at Su Xiaoling’s terrifyingly pale face. Her heart skipped a beat.

She was worried that Su Xiaoling would faint again. She swallowed and said,

“This, let me do this too. You rest.”

Su Xiaoling’s coldness made Wei Ling know that Su Xiaoling didn’t care about her at all. However, if she wanted to live, she had to rely on Su Xiaoling. Only when Su Xiaoling recovered could she recover.

Su Xiaoling glanced at Wei Ling and said calmly, “It’ll be dawn by the time you deal with the firewood.”

With that, Su Xiaoling stopped looking at Wei Ling and focused on dealing with the bird skin.

Su Xiaoling dealt with the skins of the two birds carefully. In the end, she grabbed some snow outside and rubbed it clean. She wrapped the skin layer by layer. It was actually the size of a fist.

She pierced it with a branch and roasted it by the fire.

Wei Ling was almost done with the firewood. The sky outside was also a little gray.

Su Xiaoling carried Wei Ling out to the toilet.

Wei Ling looked at Su Xiaoling’s weak arm and said worriedly, “Your wound still needs to be treated.”

She was really afraid that Su Xiaoling would collapse. How long would it take for them to be found?

It had to be said that Su Xiaoling had the best brothers and sisters. Her two brothers and her parents would not give up on looking for her.

Now, even in the foreign lands, there were capable people who were willing to accept missions to find people. As long as they were paid enough, several Escort Agencies in the capital would do such a thing.

There was also his son. Su Xiaoling was his love. He could not give up on looking for her.

Thinking of this, Wei Ling was actually a little envious.

Her survival was closely related to Su Xiaoling.

She was afraid that Su Xiaoling would collapse, but she was even more afraid that Su Xiaoling would hate her. She did not dare to court death again because she was afraid that Su Xiaoling would really abandon her.

After returning to the small cliff cave, Wei Ling suggested treating Su Xiaoling’s wound.

Su Xiaoling didn’t reject her. The wound was on her shoulder. It was indeed very difficult for her to treat it herself.

The wound was still red and swollen. After cleaning the pus and blood, she bandaged it. Su Xiaoling gave half of the roasted bird skin to Wei Ling.

It was accompanied by a section of medicinal root.

Wei Ling took a bite and was immediately stunned. There was grease in the skin. When she took a bite, it was very fragrant. There was also a layer of the sour fruit. It tasted surprisingly good.

Wei Ling ate slowly and licked the oil off her mouth.

Another full meal.

After eating, it was almost dawn.

Only then did Su Xiaoling curl up in the dry grass and sleep.

Wei Ling did not sleep. She observed Su Xiaoling for a while and was relieved to see that she did not have a fever. The sky outside was gradually brightening. It was still covered in snow. Fortunately, there was a fire. Otherwise, she would have died from the cold.

Wei Ling was sleepy. She closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.

Apart from fetching firewood and water, Su Xiaoling did not go out for the next few days.

She didn’t go hunting specifically, but on the way to get water and firewood, she also got three snakes as extra food.

After resting for so many days, her injuries were slowly healing.

She and Wei Ling deliberately ate very little, but there was only so much. The food gradually ran out. Wei Ling was obviously very anxious, but she didn’t dare to rush her.

The weather cleared, and the snow slowly melted.

Su Xiaoling prepared to hunt birds again. She planned to go up and take a look at those bird nests. It was cold and it was difficult to find other things. Instead of looking around to consume her energy, she might as well conserve her energy and think of a way to get the bird nests.

If there was one bird’s nest, there must be another.

After the snow melted, the scenery was visibly bleak. To Su Xiaoling, snow melting was a good thing. After the snow melted, she could find more things.

She knew that in the past, the snow in the foreign land would not melt in winter. After the two worlds completely fused, the snow would not melt in extremely cold places. In the capital, where the four seasons were distinct, the temperature would rise and the snow would melt.

Su Xiaoling did not know where the people outside were. Every time she walked, she would leave a mark.

It had been more than ten days since she and Wei Ling fell off the cliff. Where was this place? It was so difficult to find. Was it safe for the others to find them?

It was already December. She wondered if she would be able to reunite with the children during the new year this year. Or if she would be able to leave here alive?

After so long, Wei Ling was getting more and more afraid. Her attitude towards her was getting better and better. Su Xiaoling knew very well why she was like this.

If anyone wanted her dead the most more than ten days ago, it would be Wei Ling.

Now, Wei Ling wanted her to live more than anyone else, but Wei Ling had a motive, so Su Xiaoling never took Wei Ling’s words seriously because she knew very well that once she broke free, Wei Ling would still be that Wei Ling.

This time, Su Xiaoling was prepared for the birds. She also brought her dagger.

When the bird she attacked came to peck at her, she swung her dagger.

Her mental strength seemed to have become stronger. As the corpses of the two big birds fell, Su Xiaoling began to open the bird’s nest. Looking at the two bird eggs that had yet to hatch, she took them away.

After leaving the tree, she sucked the bird’s blood dry and carried the corpses of the two big birds back with the eggs.

This time, she didn’t need to say anything.

Wei Ling smiled and took the initiative to say, “Xiaoling, rest quickly. I’ll handle it.”

Su Xiaoling let her be.

Half a month ago, Wei Ling naturally didn’t eat or touch anything like this. But now, she could cut firewood, start a fire, and handle food.

She regained some feeling in her lower body, but she was still weak. She couldn’t move or walk.

It was still early. The big bird’s corpse was handed over to Wei Ling, and Su Xiaoling went out again.

It was not enough to eat birds. She wanted to look around and see if she could find medicinal roots or other fruits.

If she couldn’t, it was good to dig up some grass roots.

If the big bird’s corpse wasn’t finished, she wouldn’t touch the other nests. If they found her before this food was finished, it would all be over.

After digging up a pile of grass roots, Wei Ling’s eyes lit up when she saw them. She said gently, “Xiaoling, it’s been hard on you. Rest quickly.”

Su Xiaoling nodded lightly and leaned against the dry grass to close her eyes to rest.

Wei Ling looked at her with a trace of resentment in her eyes. She pursed her lips and continued to deal with the bird skin in her hand. After so many days, she still wanted to cry while doing this.

Especially when she saw the grass roots that Su Xiaoling had dug back, she was actually excited..
