Of course, it could also be possible that they were too timid to head into the mountains.
However, the village's Chief and Junior Officer organized everyone to enter the mountains together. Everyone shared what they found, and no one starved to death.
Even if some households had family members who were either old, weak, sick, or disabled and could not enter the mountains, the Chief would still distribute food to them. They could scrape by and survive like this.
"I saw An Clan Village organizing people to enter the mountains today," she remarked.
She did not expect to gather much good stuff with Qian Jiyun around. She only hoped to find some herbs to plant in her Microcosm.
"They didn't enter the deep mountains," Qian Jiyun said.
The villagers dared not venture deep into the mountains as they could not fend for themselves against the wild beasts there.
