My Wife is a Beautiful CEO

The next morning, the three of them carried their bags. They couldn't leave their medicinal herbs behind, so they set off on their journey.    

Before he left, Yang Chen also stuffed a few pieces of charcoal that were charred from last night into his bag.    

Seeing this, Liu Mingyu curiously asked, "Hubby, aren't you tired? Why are you even holding charcoal? Although we don't have food or water, we still have lighters. We can start a fire anytime."    

Originally, she wasn't used to calling Yang Chen so intimately in front of Xiao Zhiqing. However, after last night, Liu Mingyu really wanted to call him that.    

Yang Chen explained with a smile, "Not used to make a fire. The water source here is not clean, and there are many parasites and toxins, so we don't have much time to boil some water with torches. We can use charcoal to filter the water and suck away the toxins, so we don't have too much impurities."    

Having lost his cultivation, Yang Chen did not dare to take too much risks. His blood was still fighting against the poison, and if all the women also had problems with their bodies, then it would be terrible for him.    

Liu Mingyu did not expect Yang Chen to consider it so carefully. She smiled and stopped asking.    

With the help of the sun, Yang Chen led the two women to the north. But this time, Yang Chen was helpless as he found that he was starting to feel tired. And his body began to sweat like two women.    

The sweltering temperature of the prairie finally made Yang Chen understand why ordinary people didn't want to live here. It was like a steamed bun!    

Liu Mingyu and Xiao Zhiqing's lips were dry and cracked due to lack of water and a large amount of perspiration, but they were more worried about Yang Chen's health.    

Along the way, there was a scarce amount of water. When they passed by a dry little riverbank, Yang Chen didn't care about the two women's confusion, he threw himself onto the silt and struggled to dig the riverbed with his hands.    

After digging for more than half a meter, the two women were pleasantly surprised to see that there was still water that was overflowing from below!    

"Usually, the riverbed streams that have not dried for a long time will have water locked in the lower layers of silt. However, this is just to try our luck. Our luck is quite good …"    

The two girls were overjoyed. After all, they didn't say anything, but in reality, they were extremely thirsty.    

"Let me help you dig it up!"    

Liu Mingyu also rushed to Yang Chen's side and stretched out her delicate hands. Ignoring the mud and filth, she started to dig the entrance of the cave with all her might.    

Xiao Zhiqing was stunned for a moment. She then pursed her lips into a smile and followed suit, digging up the mud as well.    

Seeing that, Yang Chen couldn't help but laugh: "I don't need your help, I'm fine with digging."    

Liu Mingyu raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face. "You've already turned into an ordinary person, yet you pretend to be dumb. You don't have much to say. Don't tell me we're going to hurt your pride by helping you?"    

"You … "Oh, I didn't mean it that way." Yang Chen smiled bitterly and pouted, "Baby Mingyu'er, you're wiping mud on your nose, are you going to apply a mask on your face?"    

Only then did Liu Mingyu realize that her hands were dirty. She pouted her lips in anger, glared at Yang Chen, and continued digging.    

Although it was just a small matter, but a beauty like Liu Mingyu, the daughter of a thousand, digging with him in the dirt, Yang Chen could still feel the warmth. It was obvious that the woman was worried that he was too tired.    

Although Yang Chen felt aggrieved, he was still willing to convert this emotion into motivation.    

It was just that Yang Chen could not bear to see Xiao Zhiqing treat him in such a manner.    

After the hole was dug, water kept gushing out.    

Liu Mingyu frowned. "We do have water, but how do we get it up? It looks so muddy."    

"Watch me."    

Yang Chen raised his eyebrows and took out a T-shirt. After sucking up the muddy water from the hole, he squeezed and twisted the shirt to let the water fall into the utensils he carried and then purified it with charcoal. Finally, there was a relatively clear and drinkable water source.    

The two girls didn't think that there would be such a method. They immediately admired Yang Chen for having so many tricks up his sleeve.    

After they had drunk enough water and filled up all the canteens they had brought, the three of them continued on their journey.    

Having lost his cultivation, Yang Chen paid special attention to the situation of the grass on the ground. Luckily, he didn't run into any danger along the way.    

Xiao Zhiqing continued on her way, and when the afternoon sun was high in the sky, a rumbling sound came from her stomach.    

Because there were only three of them in the vast wilderness, they were immediately overheard.    

Yang Chen looked back and saw Xiao Zhiqing blushing as she lowered her head. She held her stomach and bit her lip.    

"Hubby, I'm very hungry too. I didn't eat anything last night, so I walked for half a day." Liu Mingyu said.    

Xiao Zhiqing felt embarrassed. After hearing Liu Mingyu's words, she knew she was taking care of her feelings. She couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at her.    

Liu Mingyu's opinion of Xiao Zhiqing had also changed a lot. She didn't feel that this girl only wanted to hook up with Yang Chen's vixen.    

After all, fox spirits would not try their best to stop her during the dangerous time last night. It was more important for her to run away.    

And now, Xiao Zhiqing was still working so hard to live with Yang Chen. Moreover, she was only sad about Yang Chen losing his cultivation base, but she didn't feel any revulsion towards him at all.    

As a woman, Liu Mingyu could tell that this girl was truly thinking for Yang Chen.    

Although she had an uncomfortable feeling, Liu Mingyu was still willing to believe that this was a kind girl who could get along with others.    

Yang Chen nodded. Although his body function was that of an ordinary person, he still had a strong tolerance for hunger. He had neglected the fact that the physical abilities of the two girls couldn't keep up.    

Indeed, if he kept walking like this, he would only drink water and not heat up. Sooner or later, he would not be able to hold on.    

Yang Chen looked around but didn't find anything edible. When his gaze landed on a tree with grey bark that grew on the edge of a pile of rocks, his gaze froze.    

"Follow me." Yang Chen waved and ran towards the tree.    

There were many green fruits growing on this tree.    

Yang Chen climbed onto the tree fork and picked each of these fruits, "Look, this is a wild figs, the leaves are oval in shape and fluffy at the bottom to maintain moisture.    

The entire Flowerfruit can be eaten with skin, although it might not look very tasty, you guys can take care of it first and replenish some vitamin C, and then walk for a while and see if you can find food. "    

At this time, the two women were so hungry that they could not care less how sour the fruits were. They bit off three or four of the fruits. If it wasn't really bad, they would have eaten up all the fruits.    

Yang Chen also took a few, but he knew in his heart that if they couldn't eat something high calorie, they wouldn't be able to hold on. So they had to keep looking for food.    

All of a sudden, Yang Chen felt like he went back to the time when he was young and was fighting in the wilderness to survive by himself, trying his best to survive.    

It was just that now, he had to bring two women with him, and he had already lost his cultivation base. His strength couldn't compare to Liu Mingyu, who could use inner force. It was even more difficult than it had been in the past.    

After another ten miles, the three of them finally arrived at a place with shallow rivers. Yang Chen saw that it was already evening, so he got the woman to find a cliff face to stay the night.    

"Take note of your safety, collect some hay and bark, and use them as a simple bed for sleeping tonight. I'll go look for something to eat in the river." Yang Chen said.    

The two women didn't have any objections and learned a lot of ways to live in the wild from Yang Chen. Soon, they went to collect various materials and started a fire.    

Yang Chenze ran to the riverside and looked around. Since he didn't have any fishing rod or other tools, it was unrealistic to fish, and there didn't seem to be many fish in the river here.    

However, heaven never bars one's way. Yang Chen glanced over with his sharp eyes and saw that it was a water snake as thick as a small arm swimming across the water below him …    

Yang Chen recognized that this was a Scaled Water Snake, and it wasn't poisonous. In fact, most of the water snakes weren't highly toxic.    

Besides, he had nothing to be afraid of even if there was poison. He reached out and grabbed the water snake, sending it back to shore!    

Yang Chen was an experienced hand when it came to capturing snakes. After pinching the heads of the snakes, the snake's mouth was wide open. No matter how much he struggled, it was useless.    

Without much hesitation, Yang Chen opened his mouth and bit down on the snake's head.    

"Bah!"    

After the snake's head was bitten off, Yang Chen spat it on the ground to end its life. This way, it would be more convenient to take it back.    

Since he didn't have any tools like a knife with him, Yang Chen could only use the most primitive way to save time.    

Fortunately, he had eaten many different animals when he was young. Although biting a snake's head was disgusting, he was still used to it. However, if the women saw this scene, they would definitely be scared to the point of closing their eyes.
