Chapter 396 I Just Don’t Know If You Are Willing
"A fight has broken out. Who is fighting whom?" Gu Xiaoxi's voice rang out.
"The members of Tuojia Village had a fight with people from outside. Two people were fighting over medicine on the mountain. Now each of them has his own reasons." Xiaomutou told Sister Xiaoxi and the old patriarch what he knew.
Gu Xiaoxi chuckled after hearing this: "There's no need to get involved. Let them solve it themselves. After all, only those who have come into contact with them can tell about a person's character."
After thinking about it, the old tribe leader Quan agreed and asked Xiao Mu to call their people back.
After dealing with this matter, Gu Xiaoxi found Gu Feng and the others to see what they had gained.
She planned to take a day off today, and then take Gu Feng to the mountains to dig herbs for a few days tomorrow before going back.
About half an hour later, Xiao Mu came over and told Gu Xiaoxi, "Sister Xiaoxi, there's no fighting outside. You can go out if you want to take a walk."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Gu Xiaoxi took Gu Feng and the others out for a walk.
The river at the door is like a dividing line. It is a cold winter on the other side of the bridge, and a cold winter on this side.
They walked to the river and saw some people fishing. She casually asked, "Can you still fish in such a cold day?"
"There are fish but they are hard to catch. I wait for a long time and only catch one or two. What's more, these fish are not very big." The man took out the fish he caught and showed it to Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi took one look at the size of the fish and advised, "Let's release them. Let them grow over the winter so we can catch the big fish in the summer. If you catch all the fry, it will be harder to eat fish in the future."
The man shook his head after hearing this and said: "Girl, you don't know that there is a big river upstream of our river, and you don't know why?
We haven’t seen many big fish this summer. I wonder what’s blocking it?”
Gu Xiaoxi naturally knew the situation of the river. The water in that river was very fast, so there must be a lot of fish.
What the villagers said might be true.
"Asan, let's go and see what's going on tomorrow?" she said.
"Okay!" Ying San agreed.
The few of them continued walking along the river. After a while, the clan leaders from both sides came over. When they heard that they were going to see the big river tomorrow, they decided to follow them.
…
After breakfast the next day, Gu Xiaoxi took Yingsan, Diguo, and Gu Feng with him, while the others stayed in the village.
Everyone in the family village went to Big Wood and Small Wood, but the old patriarch was too old to go with them.
In addition to the village chief, there were several young people in the other two villages.
Since they were going out, they had to gain something, so everyone carried a backpack and weapons to avoid running into those who went into the mountains to look for treasures.
On the way, they still met many people who went to the mountains to look for treasure. It seemed that there were people going into the mountains in every direction.
Looking at the situation along the way, Gu Xiaoxi said to Ying San, "It seems that there are many ways to get in now. I'm afraid it's hard to hide here anymore."
"Yeah, there are too many roads to manage." Ying San also felt the same way.
Gu Xiaoxi felt that she had no control over this kind of thing. All she could do was to let them be self-sufficient and everyone could unite so that they could continue to live here.
This time they went upstream along the river instead of going directly to the source, because they needed to see what went wrong along the way?
On the first night, they found a place to rest by the river.
They were now in a valley, which was flat and covered with lush vegetation. Even in the dead of winter, it was still green.
"There are a lot of prey here. Look, this rabbit is fat!" The camel chief said as he put the prepared rabbit on the rack and started roasting it.
"There are probably more snakes in this place, and I wonder if anyone lives there?" Gu Xiaoxi looked around and heard the howling of wolves in the distance.
Everyone became alert and made the fire burn more vigorously. They patrolled at different times so that they would not be too tired to move forward tomorrow morning.
In this way, two people will be on patrol for one hour, so that even the two people on duty at the end will not feel too tired.
At midnight, they were attacked by wolves again.
Fortunately, the people who followed him had high cultivation levels, and even Gu Feng could kill a wolf with his bare hands.
"Master Afeng, you have improved so fast, haven't you? You can actually kill a wolf with your bare hands!" Ying San couldn't help but be shocked.
"Uncle San, I've told you many times, don't call me Young Master, just call me Feng. I can't make such progress without the guidance of you and Uncle Si." Gu Feng said modestly, but his eyes were full of respect for Ying San.
"It's because the young master has good talent, hehe..." Ying San felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
"Asan, Gu Feng is right. His progress is inseparable from your and Asi's cultivation. You are also his elders. Why call him Young Master?" Gu Xiaoxi didn't want to hear such titles of Young Master and Young Lady, at least from Ying San and Ying Si.
They had worked hard to follow them in their escape, and after settling down, they helped him take care of such a large family. In addition to guiding Gu Feng, there were also several brothers. She could not treat them as servants.
"This, how can this be possible?" Ying San waved his hands repeatedly when he heard the girl say that. It would be bad if the master knew about it.
Gu Xiaoxi knew what Ying San and the others were worried about, so she said directly, “Don’t worry, your master is not unreasonable.
Next time I write to him, I'll ask you and Ah Si to come over. From now on, you'll be mine. I just don't know if you're willing to do that."
She had wanted to do this for a long time, but she was afraid that they would not agree because they had followed Ye Lixuan for so many years.
"But, is it okay?" Ying San asked weakly.
"Of course, I'll go back and ask Ah Si. If he agrees, I'll take you over. From now on, you'll follow me like Diguo." Gu Xiaoxi said with certainty.
"Yes, yes. Ah Si and I have long regarded that place as our home." Ying San said with his head down.
Gu Xiaoxi was happy to hear him say that, and her family members became like family to them.
"In that case, let's happily decide it. Let's clean up and take a rest!" After giving the instructions, she helped to clean up the wolves.
The people on duty collected the dead wolves and divided them up after returning.
There was no movement in the second half of the night, and everyone changed shifts as normal.
When daybreak came, they continued along the river.
The higher we go, the faster the river becomes, and there is no ice here.
At noon the next day, they found that a section of the road was blocked by some wood washed down from upstream.
Everyone worked together to drag the wood ashore and throw it into the nearby woods to prevent it from being washed away again.
However, after everyone worked hard for an entire afternoon, when they were about to go home in the evening, a lot of wood floated down from upstream, which was obviously something was wrong.
