Chapter 82 The Secret in the Cave

82

Tang Yue sighed, then gently stood up and left the room. The little figure outside was still heaving its shoulders, its suppressed sobs whimpering, and Tang Yue felt a pang of pain in her heart as she listened.

Sit gently beside him and wait quietly for him to finish venting.

Tang Bei felt like he had never been so sad since he was a child. The oppressive feeling made him feel suffocated. However, the family was in chaos because of his brothers being beaten, and he had no time to think about his own situation.

Finally, everyone fell asleep. Tang Bei lay in bed, the events of the day replaying in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he blamed himself, and the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Why didn't he insist a little more at that time? That way, at least one of his two younger brothers wouldn't have to suffer a beating.

He wouldn't be lying in bed like he is now, unable to even lift his arms. He deserves to die. He really deserves to die.

Tang Yue sat for a long time, and seeing that Tang Bei had no intention of stopping, she finally had no choice but to stretch out her little hand and gently pat his back.

Tang Bei straightened his back in an instant, then turned around and looked at Tang Yue in disbelief, with tears still on his face.

"Sister, sister."

His voice was nasal and full of grievance. Tang Yue slightly raised her body and rubbed Tang Bei's back, "Brother, I don't blame you."

Hearing this, Tang Bei's tears flowed even more fiercely. He shook his head and said in a suppressed voice, "No, if I hadn't been watching over the firewood, one of them would have been spared."

"Brother, if that's the case, will one of them also be unable to sleep because of self-blame like you?"

Tang Bei's face froze for a moment, and the tears in his eyes stopped.

"Brother, we are all family. If someone gets hurt, everyone else will feel bad. You must be feeling bad right now. Isn't this feeling worse than lying in bed with injuries all over your body?

Also, brother, this is an emergency. None of us knew that those people were so cruel, right?

So if they are wrong, it is their fault, it has nothing to do with us."

"But, I..."

"Brother, if the second and third brothers knew that you blamed yourself so much, they would definitely feel even worse."

Tang Bei quickly wiped his face. "Yeah, I understand."

Tang Yue was helpless, "Brother, I can heal my brothers. But after all, their organs are damaged. I can help them repair the wounds on the surface, but the actual recuperation still requires rest and medication.

Tomorrow I'll go to the mountains to collect herbs. My second and third brothers won't be able to work for a long time. My eldest brother will have to work even harder in the future."

Tang Bei clearly heard his sister say that he could cure his second and third brothers, and he felt relieved. "Sister, I'm not afraid of hardship. From now on, I won't let them do any housework. I'm strong and can do it all by myself."

Tang Yue smiled and deliberately yawned loudly, "Brother, I'm sleepy, let's go back to the room and sleep."

When the two of them stood up, Lin Cuicui and Old Li, who were at the outer door, hurried back inside and pretended to be asleep. Tang Yue smiled. This is home. It's so nice.

The next day, Tang Yue treated Tang Nan and Tang Dong. After confirming that their internal injuries were half healed and they were in much better condition than yesterday, she carried a backpack and went up the mountain by herself.

The backpack she was carrying was not big. Tang Yue looked back at Old Li and said, "Grandpa, if you have time, please weave a big backpack for me."

Old Li looked at the small figure that was blocked by the backpack, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"Yueyue, do you really not need grandpa to accompany you up the mountain?"

Tang Yue nodded with certainty, "Grandpa, are you still worried about me?"

"Do you want to bring a guy?"

Tang Yue knew what Old Li was referring to, but it was better not to let anyone see that thing. Once it went off, it would cause trouble for the whole village.

"No need, Grandpa, you go back to work. Let my mother rest at home for a few days."

Tang Yue walked away carrying the backpack.

She left home early, but the villagers all woke up early, and some people were already strolling along the road. Tang Yue didn't want to be seen, so she walked towards the empty space with her mind free. After a while, her figure disappeared into the forest.

When she was in the sect, she often helped the outer sect's medicine mountain with tasks, so she had a good understanding of the growing environment and medicinal effects of many herbs. Although she couldn't refine too complicated pills, she still knew a few simple ones.

Even if there are no tools for alchemy here, it should be possible to make medicine. After all, the physical fitness of people here is not as good as those in the world of immortal cultivation.

Tang Yue hadn't paid much attention to the herbs she'd found on the ground the previous day. But today, as soon as she entered the mountain, she saw all six herbs she needed. She was delighted, yet also puzzled. With so many herbs in this mountain, why hadn't anyone dug them up?

Soon, Tang Yue's backpack was mostly full. She saw that this was enough to feed her two brothers for a month or so. There was plenty on the mountain anyway, so there was no need for her to dig so much at once.

I continued walking into the mountains with the backpack on my back, sighing as I walked, "Oh, if only I had a storage bag or storage bracelet. It's really a bit tiring to carry the backpack all the time."

While complaining, Tang Yue felt something in her mind seemed to move. Her consciousness entered her mind and she saw that the big box she had drawn had just trembled.

Tang Yue raised an eyebrow. This thing has consciousness? How strange. But she'd been so busy the past few days that she'd forgotten to refill it. Now that she had nothing else to do, Tang Yue filled the box as she walked into the mountains.

Besides digging herbs, she had originally wanted to wander the mountains. Now that she was using her mental energy to fill the box, she no longer needed to use her awareness to cover her surroundings. She felt that nothing in the mountains could harm her.

The village chief said that if they killed a big one, they could share half of it with their family. This was a great temptation, and since they were here, they naturally had to abide by the rules.

As Tang Yue walked, she discovered piles of feces.

After checking in front of the mountain, I found that it was pig manure, and it extended deeper into the mountain along the trail. It seemed that the herd of wild boars was quite large.

Tang Yue thought that since the team only wanted half, she might as well get two more. That way, she could exchange the pork for other things, which would also be good money.

The reason why her mother was so cautious was probably because she was afraid that the army would find out that their money came from spies?

Oh, it’s so hard to spend money these days.

Tang Yue continued walking while thinking. Judging from the wetness of the feces, it must have been excreted before dark yesterday. Now she didn't know where those guys went to rest for the night. She could only follow the traces and continue walking inside.

Tang Yue didn't care how deep she went into the mountains when she heard a tiger roar in the distance. Her eyes lit up, "Wow, there's such a good thing? That thing is really nutritious. It's good for her brothers' bones."

Tang Yue no longer followed the boar's path, but instead ran in the direction of the tiger's roar. Hey, I still need to speed up my training. Only when I reach the foundation-building stage can I control my energy and fly. Running wildly in the mountains doesn't feel very good.

After a while, Tang Yue saw a cave in the distance. Before she could even smile, she saw a man wearing clothes similar to Chen Qingshan's from the past, looking around and coming out of the cave.

The tiger that just roared was standing not far from the cave, as if it was looking out for the wind?

Tang Yue was shocked by her own realization. There was someone here who could tame a tiger. This ability was quite powerful.

The man looked at the direction the tiger's head was pointing, and saw in the distance a group of wild boars lazily moving in the opposite direction of the tiger.

It seems the tiger has spotted the herd of wild boars and is trying to stop them from disturbing its owner. The wild boars don't seem afraid of the tiger, but they don't seem to be looking to clash with it either.

Seeing that the wild boar had gone far away, the man gestured to the tiger twice and entered the cave again.

Tang Yue had a hunch that this guy wasn't a good person. Could he be another spy? Damn spies, why are they everywhere?

Tang Yue didn't bother to use her mental power to fill the box anymore, and her consciousness immediately covered the entire cave. The situation inside really shocked Tang Yue.

This? Could this be a secret base of spies?

The man went back into the cave and went straight to a radio transmitter, then raised his hand and continued to send the message.

Tang Yue was naturally familiar with this beeping sound; it was conveying a message.

After realizing this, Tang Yue wondered what she should do?
