"Xiao Xia, what are you daydreaming about?" Zhou Lan, who was walking in front, suddenly shouted at Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia shook his head and said, "It's nothing,"
"Xiao Xia, come and see if this is edible."
Zhou Lan loved to eat wild vegetables even in the modern world. Some wild vegetables not only tasted good, but they also had high nutritional value. However, they lived in a big city, so they bought their wild vegetables and rarely dug them out themselves.
Jiang Xia walked to the other side of the field and squatted down to study the small patch of wild vegetables with her mother.
"It should be!"
Perhaps it was because they were on the edge of the mountain and were affected by the drought, the small patch of vegetables was small and yellow.
After getting her daughter's approval, Zhou Lan was about to start digging when Jiang Xia stopped her.
"Let's walk further in. This small slice is too pitiful. It doesn't look good if we were to bring this back."
Jiang Xia wasn't a Saint, and it was just that the wild vegetables reminded her of the skinny villagers. Since they were already here, they should return with some good crops.
"Alright!" Zhou Lan said.
The wild vegetables didn't look good, but that does not mean they couldn't find something better if they walked further in.
However, after taking two steps, Jiang Xia seemed to have thought of something. She returned to the wild vegetable they found previously and watered it with the water she took from her interspace.
"Jiang Xia, why did you water the vegetables? We're short of water now. We still have to save your water for drinking!"
"It's just a little mum, don't worry. I still have some in my interspace!"
"Alright! You…"
Jiang Xia followed Zhou Lan's gaze and saw that the wild vegetables that the interspace water had watered were growing rapidly. In just a few seconds, it had grown into a large area.
"This..." Jiang Xia was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She could only stare blankly at the wild vegetables.
Zhou Lan was the first to come to her senses. She squatted down and tugged on Jiang Xia's arm."Xiao Xia, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and dig!"
"Mother, this is ..."
"I told you! The reason why we felt our strength recover just now must be because of that water of yours."
Seeing what had just happened, Jiang Xia no longer dared to doubt her mother's words. She followed Zhou Lan and began to dig the wild vegetables bit by bit. When Jiang Xia was almost done digging, she took out some water and poured it on the ground. This time, she did not only water one plant but an entire area.
Grass and wild vegetables started emerging from the ground and growing. The whole process took less than five minutes.
"Dandelion, caldron, ferns…"
Zhou Lan said the names of every vegetable she dug up and refused to stop until the entire basket was full.
Jiang Xia didn't mind her mother. She walked to a small sapling and continued to experiment with the use of the interspace water.
"Xiao Xia, your water is too magical! Does this count as growing wild vegetables out of thin air?"
"It doesn't count," Jiang Xia said, who had returned to Zhou Lan's side.
"We need seeds for it to start growing. I tried it with stones, but it didn't work."
"Argh! I see!" Zhou Lan replied.
Glancing at the pile of wild vegetables behind her mother, Jiang Xia said helplessly, "Mum, do you really think we can finish eating all of this?"
"Ah?" Zhou Lan threw another garlic root behind her and looked at Jiang Xia in confusion.
Jiang Xia gestured for her to look behind her. Zhou Lan was startled when she turned around.
"Ha, haha, I didn't know I already dug! Xiao Xia, you don't understand. Digging wild vegetables can get you addicted!"
"Hmm, I really don't understand. Let's quickly put away the wild vegetables and go back! Dad and the villagers are all waiting!" Jiang Xia said as she arranged the wild vegetables properly. She tried her best to put as many of them in the basket and placed the leftover ones in the interspace.
After tidying up their things, the mother and daughter were about to return home when the sound of something running suddenly caught Zhou Lan's attention.
"Xiao Xia, come here!" Zhou Lanshouted anxiously. She carried Jiang Xia and started running.
She was now certain that it wasn't just one thing running towards them. Of the memories that Zhou Lan had gained, some were about the wild beasts in the mountains. Was it really a group of wild beasts this time?
Zhou Lan did not dare to stop and ran for a few hundred meters.
"Mother, have we outran those things?" Jiang Xia asked when they finally came to a stop.
"Yes." Zhou Lan nodded, then frowned and looked back in the direction they had been running from.
