Lin Yu stirred the fire while chatting with the system.
“System bro, check out the current data.”
【Ding, host, do you want to check the data panel?】
“Check.”

“Hold on, System bro, I lit the Hunting Atlas for Wild Chicken, Wild Rabbit, and Badger, why is there no development progress reward?” Lin Yu realized he was at a loss and instantly perked up.
【Ding, Host Tiger, can you have some ambition, Wild Chickens, Wild Rabbits, those things, even a whole dog can catch them, are you really asking for a reward? Ask Tiger, how many of these small animals has he caught?】
“What do you mean, System, you’re comparing me to Tiger?”
【Ding, Host Tiger, you’re not even as good as Tiger.】
“How am I not as good as him?”
【Tiger dares to eat shit, do you?】
“Why would I… alright, I don’t.” Lin Yu honestly admitted.
This system dog isn’t righteous, always playing dirty tricks.
You just wait until I find Old West, I’ll make the dog system see what it means to eat shit from a dung cart…呸, to steal shit from a dung cart.
Half an hour later, the old man led the donkey carrying the old lady, happily walked into the yard.
“Grandpa, Grandma, why did you come back so soon? According to Grandpa’s personality, you wouldn’t be back without strolling around the village for a few rounds, right?”
Upon hearing this, the old lady couldn’t help but blush.
“Your grandpa is so naughty, wasn’t he going to stroll around the village? I didn’t let him.”
“The village is full of great-grandchildren running around, what does it look like for me to ride a donkey and stroll around the village.”
The old man chuckled and carried the old lady down from the donkey’s back.
“Why, what’s wrong with strolling with my own wife? What’s it to the great-grandchildren, I’m their ancestor, I’m teaching them how to find a wife.”
The old lady rolled her eyes and said, “You’re just being naughty.”
Turning to Lin Yu, she said, “My dear grandson, what delicious food have you made?”
“Grandma, I used lamb offal and lamb bones to make lamb soup, and I also made some lamb fat chili oil.” Lin Yu said with a smile.
The old lady looked at the lamb on the chopping board and said, “Hey, you know what, the lamb my grandson hunted was really fat. Grandma will make you some lamb fat flatbreads, perfect for pairing with the lamb soup.”
“Old lady, bring some flatbreads to the eldest son’s family of three, our grandson loves to eat this.” The old man shouted toward the house.
“I know, I wouldn’t forget my grandson. You’re just making me look bad, you old geezer.” The old lady, with a sharp tongue and a kind heart, had been bickering with the old man for a lifetime.
Lin Yu looked at the old man and laughed, “Hey, Grandpa, you’re still in good shape.”
“Of course, this old man is still in good shape, I can still fight the little devils, I can still chop the little devils’ heads off and hang them on trees.” The old man said with a heroic spirit.
“My grandson, how are things in the mountains now?”
Lin Yu pondered for a moment and understood the old man’s meaning.
“The wild beasts in the mountains are doing well, they’re fat and the vegetation is lush, but the mountain water is scarce, the water level has dropped.”
“Right, Grandpa, if you go over this mountain, about 50 miles into the depths, there’s a wild boar valley, do you know about it?” Lin Yu asked.
The old man nodded and said, “I know, I was the first one in our village to discover that place.”
“Actually, that place isn’t a valley, but a small mountain depression, sandwiched between the directions of two mountain ranges. The cave inside is not small.”
“Back then, our village hid all the women and children there to avoid the little devils. That place has always been frequented by wild boars, the cave entrance was built by me and your fifth and sixth grandfathers.”
Lin Yu suddenly realized, no wonder he saw the marks of axe and chisel at the cave entrance, it was actually done by his own grandfather.
“Grandpa, the small pond in that mountain depression is almost dry, the water that seeps out every day is not enough for the wild boar herd to drink.”
The old man was taken aback, “That’s not right, besides, it’s not a small pond, but a water bubble, it’s what we dug back then.”
“My grandson, how many boars are in that wild boar herd?”
“Over thirty, including about a dozen piglets, the rest are almost all big boars.” Lin Yu said.
The old man furrowed his brow, lit his tobacco pipe, and took a puff.
“Wild boars, those animals can drink water, twenty-plus big boars, they drink as much water as fifty people every day.”
“But that place is just in between the mountain ranges, there’s water underground, even with so many boars, they wouldn’t be able to drink that water bubble dry.”
Lin Yu saw the old man’s expression and quickly reminded him, “Grandpa, this year’s weather is unusually hot. If there’s little snowfall this winter, next year’s weather…”
The old man waved his hand, preventing Lin Yu from continuing.
“Now that there are communes, everyone in the village eats from the same pot, no one cooks at home, except for me and your grandma who like to cook ourselves, no one else cooks their own food.”
Lin Yu heard the old man’s words and immediately understood that the old man knew what he meant.
“Tonight, I’ll talk to your uncle, we can’t waste grain like this. Otherwise, if there’s a natural disaster, lives will be lost.”
Lin Yu, seeing his purpose achieved, didn’t say anything more. The old man and the uncles and elders in the village had all experienced the tumultuous times, they understood things better than Lin Yu.
It’s just that no one could have imagined that this major disaster would last for three years.
If it weren’t for this large-scale natural disaster, relying on the wisdom of the Chinese people, it wouldn’t have caused such great losses.
The disaster event of that year could be said to be a combination of natural disasters and man-made disasters.
