The mother bear was completely irritated by humans at this time. Although she was also afraid of the sound of firecrackers, she was still waiting for an opportunity to rush over and take revenge.
Seeing this, Ye Juaner hurried to Old Ye's house to deliver the letter.
"What? Why did we have to confront a blind bear out of the blue?" When Mrs. Ye heard the news, her hands began to tremble.
Mrs. Ye's legs became weak.
Anyone who grew up in the mountains knows that mother bears with cubs are the most dangerous.
Once you provoke them, the fight will be to the death.
"Then, what should we do now..." Mrs. Ye asked in a trembling voice.
Ye Juan'er quickly said, "Don't worry, the village chief has already brought people over to help."
But this matter is not something that can be said to be not urgent!
Mrs. Ye mustered up the courage to stand up and said, "Aunt, stay home and talk to my mother. I'll go over and take a look."
"Look, I almost forgot what I was doing. I came here to ask if I should send the boss's bow over, just in case it comes in handy!"
"Yes, bring the bow." Old Mrs. Ye said excitedly, "The boss can even shoot the bandits, so a blind bear is definitely no problem."
Mrs. Ye went back to the house, took down the bow and arrow from the wall, and quickly went out with the quiver.
Ye Ersao also hurriedly followed.
Mrs. Ye San and Old Lady Ye were very worried, so they pulled Ye Juan'er aside and asked her to tell them what had happened.
Qingtian was very worried about Boss Ye's safety.
Seeing that Sister Ye was busy delivering the bows and arrows without telling her anything, and the rest of the adults in the house were busy chatting, she covered Xiaoye's mouth and whispered in his ear, "Xiaoye, please don't scream. Let's sneak out and save Daddy, okay?"
Xiao Ye squeezed out two very light whimpers from his throat, and it was unclear whether he understood or was uncomfortable with his mouth covered.
Qingtian took it as a consent and gently let go of his hand.
As expected, Xiaoye did not shout, but followed Qingtian and slipped out of the Ye family's back door.
Although he didn't know where the blind bear was, Qingtian was smart enough to take Xiaoye to the busiest place in the village to look for him.
It was not yet the twelfth lunar month, and not many families had prepared firecrackers in advance, so they were soon used up.
Although the smell around was still pungent, there was no loud explosion, so the mother bear approached the village again.
Fortunately, Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Si have recovered a little. At least they are not as weak as before and can stand up on their own without help from others.
As the mother bear approached, the villagers' lines retreated again and again, and it seemed that they were about to retreat into the village.
Wang Guangping was so anxious that he shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't retreat, grab your weapons, there are so many of us, can't we defeat a bear?
"If we let it run into the village, the losses will be even more severe."
That's true.
But everyone has his or her own selfish desires.
Some people live far away and feel that the epidemic will not affect them, so they are naturally not that active.
Some people were afraid of getting hurt, so they came just to make up the numbers to avoid being criticized by the villagers later.
Everyone has their own selfish desires, and they are just like a pile of loose sand.
Wang Guangping was extremely worried when he saw this situation.
He knew in his heart that this also meant that the villagers were not united or had some character problems.
Everyone has selfish desires, but often at this time, as long as there is one person who stands up and takes the lead and sets an example, others will immediately follow suit.
But few people will take the initiative to take the lead.
Firstly, it is the most dangerous, and secondly, the pressure is too great, and many people lack the courage.
In fact, Wang Guangping preferred Boss Ye to come.
He was an experienced hunter who had just fought off robbers, so he was able to motivate the villagers and let them put aside their fears and worries.
But at this time, Boss Ye's condition had not recovered yet. Let alone taking the lead and rushing forward, it was already good enough that he could take care of himself.
Seeing that he really couldn't retreat any further, Ye Dongkui made up his mind and said, "Village Chief, I'll go!"
"Uncle Dongkui, don't be impulsive." Wang Guangping was shocked when he heard this.
Ye Dongkui is already so old. No matter how capable he was when he was young, he can no longer keep up with the speed and reaction.
If he takes the lead, it would be tantamount to committing suicide.
Just as everyone was panicking, someone suddenly shouted, "Bow and arrow! Boss Ye's wife is bringing him a bow and arrow!"
"Why didn't we think of that?"
"Yeah, with a bow and arrow, you can shoot the black bear from a distance, so you don't have to fight it hand-to-hand!"
Mrs. Ye didn't expect that her presence with a bow and arrow would cause such a sensation. Almost everyone looked at her expectantly.
Seeing this, Boss Ye couldn't laugh at all.
He and Ye Laosi had just run down the mountain carrying Liu, and had exhausted all his strength.
His legs had just stopped shaking and becoming weak, but his arms were still sore and weak that he had no strength at all. Not to mention shooting a black bear, he couldn't even pull the bow.
Mrs. Ye came to Boss Ye and saw his current state. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she felt that she might have made things more difficult than helpful.
Wang Guangping stopped the villagers from cheering and frowned, "What are you arguing about? Boss Ye just rescued Liu and he's almost dead from exhaustion. How could he have the strength to draw his bow?"
Ye Dongkui also hurriedly added: "Even if you can pull the bow and arrow, do you know how thick the blind bear's skin is?
"Only a military crossbow with a refined arrowhead can penetrate a black bear's fur."
As he spoke, he drew an arrow from the quiver and struck it twice on a stone, and the iron arrowhead became deformed.
