Chapter 92 Return Home

Ye Zhen had no idea about the debate on the internet. Having been in the cultivation world for a long time, she was used to practicing in the mountains, forests and fields. If it weren't for her previous memories, she would hardly use some of the software on her phone, let alone the group chat in her small account.

After finishing things here and having lunch, they set off. It would take a few hours to get home, so they prepared the food and water needed in the car. Ye Dong also had to learn from his uncle Ye and planned to open a smaller farm this year, so this time only Ye Zhen made the return trip.

When we arrived at Shanbei Village, the forest was silent, the night was deep, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the tall trees on both sides of the cement road rustled in the wind.

It was the first time I took a car in the countryside late at night. Although I had been to Shanbei Village before to visit relatives, it was a good place to shelter from the heat during the day, but it became even more shadowy at night.

As they walked further and further away, they didn't see any vehicles on the road for a long time. The villages in the distance had already turned off the lights and gone to sleep. It looked dark and gloomy. From time to time, the calls of wild birds could be heard in the mountains. The shadows of the trees swayed, and the slightest movement made Qian Fen secretly afraid.

Qian Fen was sitting in the middle, with a child lying on one side with his head resting on his legs. Suddenly, a night bird flew across the mountains and forests, and then flew past the bright spot in front of the car, scaring Qian Fen so much that her heart started pounding.

Oh my! I knew my younger sister married into a remote area. It was okay to walk here during the day, but it was really scary at night!

After sitting in the car for a whole afternoon, Qian Fen, who was already tired, couldn't fall asleep. Looking at the child in her arms, she felt a little envious.

She also wanted to fall asleep and open her eyes, but the more scared and nervous she became, the more she couldn't fall asleep. What was going on?

She was too embarrassed to tell Ye Zhen, so she just put on some music on the radio.

It was a bit embarrassing to let her sisters know that she was still afraid at her age, so Qian Fen didn't dare to look at the sides of the road. The two children were covered with the coats she brought. She carefully pulled up the clothes that fell off when the children turned over. Qian Fen asked with a trembling voice:

"How long will it take for the leaves to arrive?"

Ye Zhen was concentrating on driving the pickup truck. He glanced at the other person through the rearview mirror and saw Qian Fen huddled together with the two children with a frightened look on her face. He said with a smile:

"It's not far. We'll be there in about half an hour."

Qian Fen breathed a sigh of relief and turned the car onto a small road. She saw that the area ahead illuminated by the headlights was a dense bamboo forest. The cool summer breeze and the bamboo forest played against each other, but in Qian Fen's ears, it added a sense of fear.

"Ye Zi, let's turn on some music, or the radio. It's so boring so late at night." Qian Fen couldn't hold it in any longer. She was not as brave as Ye Zhen. She was so scary.

My mind is always filled with images of corpses thrown in the woods and ghosts in the wild mountains. I always feel that something is going to jump out of the woods nearby, and the more I think about it, the more scared I become!

"It's my fault that I forgot to turn it on. Okay, what would you like to listen to, Sister Qian?" Ye Zhen turned on the music on his phone and asked Qian Fen.

"It's all right." She just wanted a voice to distract herself, she didn't have any other requests.

Ye Zhen clicked on the recommendation, and then cheerful music started playing.

Qian Fen relaxed and moved her body: "Ye Zi, I'm really not scared, it's just that the night is too dark." Although she and Ye Zi are sisters, she is much older than her and is the elder. She still has to save face in front of the younger generation. It is better not to say that she is afraid of ghosts.

Ye Zhen looked at the pond on the left that was illuminated by the moonlight. The water surface was reflecting light, and the path was also clearly illuminated by the moonlight. It was not dark at all.

Ye Zhen did not expose her, but replied with a smile: "Sister Qian is of course not afraid of the dark."

Seeing that Ye Zhen was trying not to laugh, Qian Fen blushed. Before she could say anything, the two children sat up drowsily, frowned, and wanted to get down.

Qian Fen cried out and quickly picked it up: "My little ancestor, what are you doing? Are you sleepy?"

"Aunt, I want to pee."

"Auntie, please stop the car. I need to pee. I can't hold it anymore. I need to pee."

I drank a lot of water on the bus in the afternoon and didn’t eat anything. As a child, I was very straightforward and couldn’t hold back my urge to pee.

You and I were shouting anxiously, it was really too late. If we weren't twins, we would do everything together.

"Hey~ Don't pull it out, Ye Zi, please stop the car."

Qian Fen held one child in each arms, and as soon as the car stopped, she took advantage of the car lights and moonlight, aimed at the grass next to her, and took the two children to the toilet.

Ye Zhen found the tissues in the car, opened the door and handed them over.

The wind in the mountains was cool. Qian Fen quickly dressed the two children. She could not hear the chirping of insects and birds in the mountains at night while sitting in the car, but her ears were constantly ringing as soon as she got out.

Frogs sang loudly, night birds cried sadly, and there were also the whimpering sounds of unknown animals.

Qian Fen's heart was pounding. She followed Ye Zhen holding the two children, not feeling tired at all. She held her breath and asked:

"Ye Zi, what's that sound? It's scary." He looked around secretly, looking timid and curious.

Ye Zhen listened attentively, used his spiritual sense to probe, locked the direction, and walked directly towards the long reeds beside the pond.

Found it!

Qian Fen saw Ye Zhen walking forward and hurriedly followed behind.

This area is full of green reeds with thorns on the edges of the leaves. Summer has just begun and the reed flowers have not yet fully bloomed. Clusters of reeds grow together, and the old dead leaves underneath also provide a secret habitat for wild ducks and water birds.

Ye Zhen didn't expect that when he used his spiritual sense to investigate, he would find a nest of wild duck eggs.

Now Qian Fen happily picked up the duck eggs and counted them in her mouth:

"One, two, three...eight duck eggs!" She no longer held the child and gave the child to Ye Zhen to hold. Now she was no longer afraid.

What’s there to be afraid of in the dark night? Aren’t the duck eggs I picked up for free tasty?

Ye Zhen looked at the excited Qian Fen in silence. He was so scared just now!

But her target was not the duck eggs. She pushed aside the reeds on the left and stared closely with a pair of green eyes. When she saw someone pushing away the obstruction, she couldn't help but let out a low growl, intimidating the person.

However, the newcomer's aura was strong and animals were most sensitive to it. The green-eyed animal stood up and took a few steps back in fear. The two cubs underneath whimpered, and the mother animal shivered and crouched, sobbing and not daring to run away.

Ye Zhen looked at the litter of puppies in front of him with bright eyes. The mother dog was thin, with messy and dull fur, and her belly seemed dry and skinny where she was feeding milk. The two puppies below were fat and plump because of their mother. There was a fishy smell in the litter, and there was a black wound on the mother dog's hind leg, which became inflamed and oozing pus as the weather got hot.

There were some eggshells and a few mouse furs on the hay, and the smell was terrible. The puppies, with their eyes closed, were lying next to their mother's belly, turning it over to look for food.

Qian Fen was holding the duck eggs in her coat. When she came over and saw the litter of puppies, she exclaimed in surprise:

"There's a whole litter of puppies here? Oh, so pitiful." He looked like he wanted to hug the mother dogs but was afraid of being bitten.

Several dogs seemed frightened and huddled in the weeds, whimpering and with their ears drooping.

"This big dog is still injured? Why is there a dog in this place?"

This place is next to the road, and the nearby small villages are more than ten miles away. Not to mention how the dog was injured, it is difficult for it to even fill its stomach, let alone give birth to two cubs.

"Ye Zi, these dogs are so pitiful, why don't we take them away?" Qian Fen knew that it was a bit unreasonable. She was just a guest, so how could she ask others to keep pets?

Feeling bad, Qian Fen discussed, "Why don't we take it back first, and then I can take it home and raise it? Anyway, the farm is usually short of one or two dogs to guard the house."

Ye Zhen knew that Qian Fen’s family’s farm didn’t need it at all. Dogs couldn’t dive into the sea to see things that grew in the sea, but she understood Sister Qian’s good intentions.

"Sister Qian, my family really lacks a dog to guard the house. You know we grow a lot of things at home. My mother has wanted to raise a dog for a long time. Isn't it a coincidence now?"

Ye Ma: When did I ever want to have a dog!

Dogs in the countryside run around every day, and they don’t do insecticide treatment or wash their fur like those in the city. They are dirty all day long, and she is very annoyed!
