The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 45 Mysterious Cave

Chen Xiaolin also picked up a lot of hazel mushrooms on the mountain. She didn't recognize many other mushrooms, so she didn't pick them.

She was suddenly craving for chicken stewed with mushrooms, so why not hunt a pheasant?

In order to hunt pheasants, Chen Xiaolin walked to the outskirts of the mountains for a while.

As she walked, Chen Xiaolin found that she seemed to be lost. This was her first time walking this road.

Chen Xiaolin planned to walk back to find a way. There were no people walking in this deep mountain, and the road was not easy to walk at all.

After walking for a while, Chen Xiaolin heard the sound of running water. She followed the sound of water and walked another 500 meters, and saw a large pool with a waterfall that was about to dry up on the edge of the pool.

Chen Xiaolin was a little curious as to where the water for the waterfall came from.

Suddenly, Chen Xiaolin vaguely seemed to see a cave under the waterfall.

Because I read a lot of period novels in my previous life, when I saw a cave, I subconsciously thought there was a treasure inside.

After some confusion, Chen Xiaolin still decided to go and have a look. I just want to go to the cave from the shore and pass through the small pool.

She took out a small kayak from the space and slowly paddled to the bottom of the waterfall.

Fortunately, there are rocks of different shapes at the bottom of the waterfall, otherwise Chen Xiaolin wouldn't be able to climb up. After she landed on the shore, she put away the kayak and climbed up carefully on the rocks.

Chen Xiaolin originally thought that this was a humid cave, but when Chen Xiaolin walked in, she saw a large, dry, breathable, spacious and bright cave.

Someone had obviously lived here, because it was filled with all kinds of furniture. Around the cave, Chen Xiaolin could still smell a strong smell of realgar powder. It seemed that the owner of the cave was also afraid of all kinds of molluscs.

This cave seemed to have only one hall, but Chen Xiaolin's intuition told her that there must be a secret room here.

Chen Xiaolin walked around, and just when she was about to give up, she suddenly saw something wrong with the dilapidated wooden bed.

The wooden bed was placed next to the wall. When Chen Xiaolin moved the wooden bed out, she saw a protruding stone.

Chen Xiaolin pressed in hard, and suddenly another cave appeared at the head of the bed.

Wow! Chen Xiaolin felt that she was really lucky. There were all kinds of boxes in this secret cave.

Chen Xiaolin opened the outermost small box and saw that it was a box of large yellow croaker.

Chen Xiaolin was almost stunned when she saw this big box full of golden yellow croakers.

There are at least thirty boxes here. If they are all big yellow croakers, then she won by lying down!

Chen Xiaolin quickly put all the boxes into the space and restored the cave to its original state.

By the time we returned to the other side of the cave, it was almost four o'clock.

She didn't dare to delay for a moment and went straight to find the way down the mountain. Chen Xiaolin walked in the direction she had just entered the mountain for an hour before returning to the place where she hunted wild boars that day.

Once she got here, she went down the mountain faster. Her physical skills were not in vain. It took more than half an hour to travel, but she arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than ten minutes.

When she returned to the foot of the mountain, Chen Xiaolin breathed a sigh of relief. She should go into the mountains less often in the future! I was on tenterhooks all the way, always paying attention to my surroundings, for fear that I would not be able to enter the space in time if I encountered danger.

Chen Xiaolin took out the basket from the space, then put two pheasants into the basket, and then covered the pheasants with hazel mushrooms.

Chen Xiaolin also shot more than ten pheasants along the way today. She planned to keep them in the space and eat them slowly.

Before she reached the door of her home, she saw a person walking around in front of her door from a distance.

When she got closer, she saw clearly that the person lingering at her door was Chen Mu.

"Brother, are you waiting for me?"

"Xiao Lin, where have you been? Why are you back so late?"

"I went up the mountain to chop firewood. I saw a lot of dry firewood, and I suddenly lost track of time."

"Don't come back so late next time. It's too dark and the mountain is too dangerous." Chen Mu knew that his cousin was very strong and was not willing to help her chop wood, so he didn't say anything like not letting her go up the mountain.

"Well, I know, brother, don't worry! I cherish my life very much." It is rare for Chen Xiaolin to live another life, and she will not joke with her own life.

"By the way, when did you plant the watermelon? Do you still have any seeds? Leave some for me to plant next year." Chen Mu ate a piece of watermelon today, which really made him want to eat it after finishing it.

"When I ate watermelon today, didn't it have black seeds? Those seeds can be made into seeds after they are dried. Do you still want to eat watermelon? Then you can help me do some work tomorrow and I will let you eat it in two days. How about that?" The five watermelon seedlings in Chen Xiaolin's vegetable garden have produced fifty or sixty large watermelons, but they are not ripe enough yet. In order to prevent mice from stealing food, she also placed a lot of mouse traps next to the vegetable garden.

"As long as you ask, I will help you even if there is no watermelon to eat. Of course, if there is watermelon to eat, I will be more motivated." Chen Mu took the basket on Chen Xiaolin's back and asked her to open the door.

Chen Xiaolin opened the door and took Chen Mu to her vegetable garden.

"Don't wander around. There are mouse traps everywhere in this vegetable garden." Chen Xiaolin didn't want her cousin to step on a mouse trap later. The harvest was coming soon. If she hurt her foot, it would be troublesome.

"Why do you put so many mouse traps?" After Chen Xiaolin's reminder, Chen Mu also saw the mouse traps that could be seen everywhere in the vegetable garden.

"Of course it's to prevent mice. My watermelons have grown so much and so well, it would be a pity if they were eaten by mice." Chen Xiaolin put a lot of effort into these watermelons and poured a lot of spiritual spring water. If they were eaten by mice, she would be afraid. I'm afraid rats will breed faster.

Chen Xiaolin took Chen Mu around her watermelon patch. Looking at the big round watermelons, Chen Mu almost drooled.

"Xiao Lin, remember to leave one of these watermelons for me alone!"

"no problem."

Chen Mu followed Chen Xiaolin around the watermelon patch and then went home happily. He was waiting for his cousin at the door today, mainly because his grandparents were worried about her running into the mountains and fearing that she would be in danger. Now that his cousin has come back, he can go back to work. Of course, the main reason for going to see the watermelon is because of his curiosity

Chen Xiaolin was really exhausted today. She was too lazy to prepare more complicated meals, so she just made do with reheating her lunch.

After dinner, it was already dark outside, so Chen Xiaolin quickly went into the space.

There were so many boxes collected today, and she hadn't even had time to look at them yet!

Chen Xiaolin took out all the boxes collected today from the warehouse and placed them in the yard in front of the villa.

Chen Xiaolin used her mind to open all the boxes. To Chen Xiaolin's disappointment, there were only five boxes of large and small yellow croakers inside, and the rest were all kinds of books.
