Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Mei Qian was shocked when she saw Cang's face clearly.

"You, you, you, why are you from Xirong?"

Mei Qian still remembers that when she was drunk, Cang was still a slave like her.

Mei Qian's expression must be very strange right now, because she herself doesn't know what expression to use to face Cang.

She even recalled that she had actually let the other person off that day.

What kind of disaster is this that has lasted for thousands of years?

She actually raised her hand to help and ended up hurting herself?
"Long time no see, Qian."

Cang didn't explain to Mei Qian what was going on. His greeting made Mei Qian realize that this guy still remembered her and could recognize her.

But what was she wearing at that time?
A dishevelled, dirty little black face.

It's completely different from the way we dress today.

Does this guy have eagle eyes? !

"Then why did you arrest me for no reason?"

And what he said clearly meant that he recognized her and was determined to catch her.

"Didn't you say you were an official?"

Mei Qian was choked by the other party, but she quickly reacted and said: "I said I was an official, but you arrested me."

After Mei Qian finished speaking, her eyes fell on Cang again, and she said, "So, you are from Xirong, right? You sneaked here, could it be that you wanted to catch me?"

"I think...I have never concealed from you the fact that I am a Xirong."

Mei Qian:? ? ?
"Outside the capital of Xirong there is a river called Cangshui, the mother river of Xirong."

Mei Qian: "..."

Ah... this... is it because she is ignorant?

Thinking of the scene when she knew nothing and foolishly followed the other person's introduction to introduce herself, Mei Qian's eyes flickered in embarrassment, and her toes itched and she wanted to scratch them.

Help!

It's because she didn't have enough education, okay?
"As for arresting people on orders..."

Cang deliberately dragged out the words, and Mei Qian subconsciously looked up to meet the other person's eyes that were deliberately waiting for her to look over, and then she heard the other person say, "It's just a coincidence, catching you is just a convenient thing to do."

Mei Qian:? ? ?
Can you not be so smooth?!

"You brought such a small group of cavalry with you to capture me like this. Aren't you afraid that the princess's men will kill you right away and block you to death in this Li Su Mansion?"

As Mei Qian spoke, he looked around and saw what seemed to be a cave in front of him.

Inside Jianmen Pass, the area surrounding the city of Xinquan is entirely a basin plain, and there are almost no caves as tall and deep as the one before us.

Mei Qian thought to himself, if we have reached the mountainous area, that would be really bad.

"I have my own way of coming in, and I have my own way of leaving."

Cang didn't tell Mei Qian how they got in, but Cang said, "If that princess really went on a large-scale hunt for you, I think - Qian, your position is also very important."

The oppressive feeling that Cang in front of her brought to Mei Qian suddenly reminded her of Mu Ying.

"I found something good before I caught you."

Before Mei Qian could think about how to trick Cang, the other party had already taken the initiative.

He actually took out a small ball of wool from his arms.

When Cang took out the ball of string, he stared at Mei Qian intently, trying to read some clues from her face, but Mei Qian also showed curiosity and asked, "What is this?"

"You don't recognize him?"

Mei Qian: "Why should I recognize it?"

Mei Qian said this on the surface, but the alarm in her heart had already been ringing!
How did this person manage to tie himself up and grab a ball of wool at the same time?
What on earth was this person doing running into that village?

"But I heard the ladies in the farm say, 'It's all thanks to Master Mei that we are where we are today', 'Only a woman like Master Mei would care about us'... Woman, Master Mei, Qian, your full name should be 'Mei Qian', right?"

"You still say you didn't intend to arrest people? You hid in the manor for so long... If you caught me by coincidence, you wouldn't have been hiding in the room where I rested, right?"

Mei Qian did not answer Cang's question. She also raised her own questions and asked Cang's questions from another angle.

"Now, given your current situation, you should answer my question." But this time Cang did not give Mei Qian the chance to change the subject. His eyes were always on Mei Qian's legs that were being supported. Mei Qian immediately realized that he was under someone else's roof and had to bow his head.

"My arm hurts. Can you tie my arm in front of me? If you are nice to me, I will answer your questions."

Mei Qian changed her approach and her tone suddenly softened.

Cang was stunned for a moment by Mei Qian's sudden change of expression. Then he lowered his head and stared at Mei Qian's face. Seeing that her condition did not seem to be good, he lowered his eyes and said nothing more.

Afterwards, he really bent down and helped Mei Qian untie her.

Mei Qian's shoulders felt briefly relieved, but she was not reckless enough to think that she could leave here now.

Because soon, the rope tied her hands in front again.

"Okay, keep talking."

"I want to drink water."

This time Cang remained silent, just staring at Mei Qian without moving.

Very good, this person’s bottom line is quite high and he did not indulge her further requests.

"Yes, my name is Mei Qian, and I'm an official."

Mei Qian sighed and answered as if she had accepted her fate.

"What do you do?"

"I'm thirsty."

Cang: “……?”

Now Cang turned around, took a kettle, opened the cork and handed it to Mei Qian's mouth.

Finally, Mei Qian asked, "Have you boiled this water?"

Cang: ???

Seeing the confusion on the other person's face, Mei Qian immediately called Xiao Mei from the backstage: "If there are parasites in this water, will the parasites come out if I use the floral dew later?"

Xiaomei thought Meiqian didn't need to think so far, and said: "You can choose to drink the water here and take the flower dew there to kill the insect eggs."

Just when Mei Qian couldn't get an answer from Cang and her expression was very interesting, Cang seemed to understand something and asked immediately: "What are the benefits of drinking boiled water? Answer me, and I will give you boiled water to drink."

Mei Qian: "..."

Her floral dew is still very precious, and the less drop you can use, the better.

"It will reduce the probability of getting sick and having stomachaches." After Mei Qian finished speaking, Cang's eyes changed as he looked at Mei Qian.

Soon, Mei Qian heard the other party say, "The cattle, sheep and horses drink the same way, and there is no problem."

Mei Qian listened to his remarks and rolled her eyes and said, "You are a human being. You are competing with cows, sheep and horses in drinking water. Why don't you learn from them and compete with them in eating grass?"

"Grass doesn't taste good." Guo Cang answered Mei Qian's question very directly, "However, when there is no food, we do eat grass."

When Mei Qian mocked him, she used "you", but Cang replied "we". If it was only directed at Cang, Mei Qian could still remain calm.

But when the other party included himself and all the people from Xirong in the list, Mei Qian sneered and said sarcastically: "Not only that? When you run out of food, you will not only eat grass, you will also eat people!"

When they have no food, they go to their neighbors' houses and kill and burn them, stealing other people's food and wealth to feed themselves as beasts!
Mei Qianduo wanted to blurt out all the dirty words in her stomach, but she swallowed the words back in the end.

But the resentment and unwillingness in her eyes could not be completely concealed.

Cang looked at Mei Qian and thought that this reaction was something he had seen in many people's eyes, so he didn't care at all. He just said, "It's better to eat others than to be eaten by others. After all, it's just that I'm not strong enough."

After saying that, he looked down at Mei Qian again, and Mei Qian raised her head and stared into Cang's eyes.

Cang stared at the woman who seemed to be extremely angry with his eyes that Mei Qian had thought were like prairie wolves. The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, but he suddenly heard Mei Qian soften her tone and said, "Go boil some water, I'm so thirsty~ Don't forget what you said just now."

Cang: “…”

Staring at Mei Qian's face that suddenly made an innocent expression, Cang felt disgusted.

This woman!

Picking up the kettle, Cang took a deep breath and turned to leave.

However, Mei Qian's eyes were fixed on the other person's back. Then, taking advantage of the other person's unpreparedness, he immediately stretched out his head and took a big gulp of the nutrient solution that he suddenly took out of his hand and swallowed it into his mouth.

"Oh my god - why does it taste like sour lemon?!" (End of this chapter)
