Ji Shuisheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and flames rose in his lower abdomen. It was so tight that it was unbearable, and he desperately wanted to relieve it.

He strode over, and Su Qing happened to turn her head. Their eyes met like lightning, and Su Qing saw the passion in Ji Shuisheng’s eyes.

Just as Ji Shuisheng walked to Su Qing’s side and was about to carry her into the forest, he heard Qiu Yongkang’s voice.

“Shuisheng.”

Qiu Yongkang strode into the valley and saw Su Qing with wet hair and Ji Shuisheng standing with his back to him. He wondered what the two of them were doing. It was as if they were whispering to each other. He had come at the wrong time.

When his gaze landed on the stream behind them, Qiu Yongkang’s eyes flashed with joy,

“There’s water.”

” Yes, there’s water. Quickly get everyone to bring the things that can hold water.”

Ji Shuisheng felt very uncomfortable that his desire had not been relieved. He dared not turn around and shout, afraid that Qiu Yongkang would see his flushed face and eyes full of passion.

“I’ll go back and call them. The two of you should take advantage of the fact that no one is around to wash up.”

Su Qing handed Ji Shuisheng two body-warming pills and walked past him to inform Qiu Yongkang.

Qiu Yongkang looked at Su Qing’s dripping hair. Did she take a shower? Shuisheng had been watching?

Qiu Yongkang suddenly realized that he had come at the wrong time!

Su Qing returned and asked everyone to bring water containers, including the four large iron pots. Only Qu Da was left to look after the carriage, the things, the old, the weak, and the sick. The rest followed Su Qing to the valley to fetch water.

Everyone was too thirsty. They wanted to drink some water first and then return to fill it.

When Su Qing brought them to the valley, Ji Shuisheng, and Qiu Yongkang had already finished bathing. They bathed downstream, and the water flowed so that it wouldn’t affect the drinking upstream.

Qiu Yongkang found it strange. The weather and stream were so cold, but he didn’t feel cold at all after taking the pills left behind by Su Qing.

The two of them were much cleaner after taking a shower. They were no longer dust-covered, and their eyes were exceptionally clear.

When everyone saw the water, they were so excited that they all ran over and lay on the shore to drink it happily.

After drinking enough water, everyone was like a dead tree that had returned to life.

After drinking enough water, without needing Ji Shuisheng’s instructions, everyone squatted by the stream to scoop up water and filled all the containers that could be used to hold water. Zhong Yong carried the big pot filled with water and left effortlessly.

Li Daniu didn’t back down as he carried a big pot filled with water and walked back. Ji Shuisheng had one of the remaining two pots, while Qu Da moved the last.

The girls used bamboo tubes to hold water. They carried baskets on their backs to save a lot of water.

Those who had water bags filled them with water. Everyone was as happy as if it was the new year.

She had killed a tiger and found a water source. It was a rare day of good luck.

This luck was far from enough. After Su Qing and everyone sent the water back to their resting place, she waved her hand and took the girls into the mountain again.

Everyone was used to Su Qing’s silence. They knew they would gain something if they followed her, so they followed Su Qing without complaints. Soon, they found a potato field.

Didn’t everyone know what kind of plant this was? The leaves looked withered, but they should be fine to feed the horses.

The girls went to pull out the potato seedlings, but they seemed to be very strong. They couldn’t pull them out even after pulling them a few times.

“Use a knife to cut!”

Ji Xiaoying suggested. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Sister Su Qing easily pull up a potato seedling. She only realized that many round fruits were growing from the plant’s roots. They looked a little like sweet potatoes but were not sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes were long and red, while this one was oval-shaped and khaki.

“Sister, what is this?”

Ji Xiaoying asked Su Qing curiously.

“Potato.”

Su Qing replied. She threw the potato seedlings on the ground and plucked another one. Her physique and strength had been upgraded to level 37, so plucking potatoes was a piece of cake.

“Can it be eaten?”

Ji Xiaoying’s eyes lit up as she asked Su Qing. Tonight’s dinner was very sumptuous! First, there was tiger meat, and then there were potatoes.

“It’s edible and delicious.”

Su Qing answered as she plucked the potatoes. She didn’t delay her work. She had already thought of how to make the potatoes. There was still some meat and oil left. She would fry some potato chips for Xiaoying and the children.

It had been a long time since they had roasted potatoes. Now that they had coal, they could roast some potatoes to eat. After cooking a few pots of potatoes, they would have a few rations for tomorrow’s journey.

She made a portion of the tiger meat and marinated the rest to eat on the road. She put the tiger bones into the system. Xiao Qi couldn’t wait to use the tiger bones in medicine.

If they headed north, the cold weather would cause more rheumatism. Tiger bones could be used to make rheumatism cream, and the Musk Tiger Bone Rheuma Cream was perfect for relieving pain and dispelling wind.

Su Qing plucked the potatoes, and the girls followed behind her to pluck the potatoes from the potato seedlings. They put the plucked potatoes into the basket on their backs. Everyone was busy and happy.

The system was quite generous. The potatoes it had given her added up to 100 to 200 catties. They could last her three to four days if she took them along.

Su Qing and the girls returned with potatoes and saw Ji Shuisheng feeding Big Black water and grass. Big Black was so thirsty that it refused to lift its head when stabbed. Even the grass lost its attraction to it.

“Brother, what did Sister Su Qing find this time?”

Ji Xiaoying carried a basket of potatoes and ran to her big brother happily. She turned around to let Ji Shuisheng see the basket on her back.

“What is this?”

Ji Shuisheng asked his sister with a smile, but his eyes looked at Su Qing, who was walking toward him under the sunlight. Her confident eyes were exceptionally bright under the sunlight.

“Potato. Sister Su Qing said it’s delicious.”

Ji Xiaoying called for her brother to help her take the basket down while she chattered on endlessly.

Hearing that there was delicious food, the little tiger and the others ran over and looked at it.

“You guys light the fire first and peel the potatoes. I’m going out for a while.”

Su Qing poured out the potatoes from her basket. She was going to upgrade her mining mission. She couldn’t let go of the opportunity.

“Where are you going?”

Ji Shuisheng asked Su Qing worriedly. Su Qing had given him a mission.

“Set up the stove like this. Set up two more stoves.”

Su Qing drew a simple stove on the ground with a tree branch. Without a chimney, she would use a stone to build a smoke pipe to guide the smoke out. The smoke that leaked out from the cracks in the stone would not cause gas poisoning. Anyway, there was no need to close the door or the windows in the cave.

Ji Shuisheng was proficient in making mechanisms and knew how to set up the furnace. He nodded at Su Qing.

“Alright, 1’11 do this.”

“It’s time for the girls to wash up. Let’s build two simple shower booths!”

They now had coal to boil water. The girls hadn’t bathed in a long time, so that they could bathe well.

“Alright.”

Ji Shuisheng nodded in agreement. He was already thinking about what to use to build a temporary shower shed.

Seeing that Ji Shuisheng had agreed, Su Qing took a hoe and carried a basket as she walked towards the cave where the coal was found.

“Zhong Yong, go with your Sister Su Qing.”

Ji Shuisheng was worried about Su Qing alone, so he asked Zhong Yong to protect Su Qing.

Su Qing initially didn’t want him to go, but she changed her mind when she saw the two hammers in his hands..
