Along the way, Zheng Jie and the others naturally asked about Lu Changgong's leg injury in detail. They were relieved only after they were confirmed that it was not serious.
However, Su Sijin solemnly emphasized that Lu Changgong's leg disease was not suitable for outsiders to know, otherwise it might lead to more violent assassinations.
After Su Sijin finished her explanation, Zheng Jie grabbed Lu Qiuling and Lu Changming, and gave them instructions repeatedly, only stopping after getting their confirmation and affirmative assurance.
The group chatted and laughed along the way, and soon reached the halfway point of the mountain.
The curling smoke from the cooking fires at the foot of the mountain looked so homely, and it was hard to tell that a brutal massacre had taken place there before.
"Hey..." Su Sijin lost her balance and was tripped by something, almost falling down. Fortunately, Lu Changgong was quick to use one hand to catch her.
"What tripped me?"
Su Sijin kicked the culprit angrily. The more she kicked, the more she felt something was wrong. She kicked off the ashes, revealing a shiny stone.
"Wait a minute, I think I found something incredible."
Su Sijin squatted down and dug out the crystal stone. Her eyes were shining brightly, as if she had seen gold.
"What is this?" Lu Changming squeezed Lu Changgong aside, moved closer to Su Sijin, and asked curiously, "This crystal is so beautiful."
"Second brother, try it." Su Sijin broke off a small piece and handed it to him.
Lu Changming put it in his mouth without thinking, smacked it a few times, and spit it out with a frown, "Sister-in-law, what is this? It's bitter and salty, so disgusting."
"It's bitter and salty. Look around to see if there are any crystals like this." The crystal weighed at least two or three pounds, and it was quite heavy in the backpack.
Lu Changgong took her backpack away, and Su Sijin nervously buckled it back, "That's how heavy it is, I can handle it."
Just kidding, there are still a lot of things in the backpack that cannot be seen in the world. If Lu Changgong finds out, how will she explain it? So she better carry it herself.
Lu Changgong looked at her deeply, and it was this look that made Su Sijin feel creepy. She felt as if Lu Changgong had discovered some of her secrets.
"Sister-in-law, I found two crystals." Lu Qiuling danced with joy. She was happy that she could help Su Sijin.
"I also found one. This crystal weighs four or five pounds." Lu Changming was not to be outdone and found the largest crystal.
In a short time, seven crystals were found, weighing nearly twenty kilograms.
"Sister-in-law, what is this pure white and beautiful stone?" Lu Qiuling asked curiously with her black eyes open.
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were fixed on her, waiting for an explanation. Even Lu Changgong, who was always indifferent and indifferent, turned sideways and looked at her intently.
However, Su Sijin did not intend to explain it at this moment. She wanted to surprise them, to surprise them, and to make them look forward to it.
Su Sijin touched her head and said, "When I tell you, you'll know. But, let me tell you, this is a good thing."
"Really? Then I'll be waiting."
After Lu Qiuling finished speaking, she skipped and held Zheng Jie's hands.
When Lu Changgong was about to carry the tiger on his back, he suddenly saw him tear off his outer shirt and throw it into the grass, then he disappeared in an instant with a flick of his masked hand.
He made himself look very messy with ease, then sat on the ground and got mud on his clothes. When he was about to put the mud on his face, Su Sijin stopped him immediately.
"What are you doing? You can't get anything dirty on your face. It's almost healed. If it gets stained with something, it will ruin everything and you might even die unjustly."
Su Sijin finished speaking, avoiding the poisonous sore and applying mud on him. "It's still early to go down the mountain! Do we need to disguise ourselves so early?"
Su Sijin had just disguised him almost perfectly when Jiang Hong's joyful voice came from behind him.
"Miss Su."
Su Sijin: ...
Therefore, this is the benefit of having internal strength. She knew someone was coming from afar, and she also wanted to learn, but she didn’t know if it was too late.
"Mr. Jiang, why are you here?"
Jiang Hong led a group of about 10 to 20 people, holding various tools. Su Sijin understood, "You want to go hunting in the mountains!"
"No, we heard that you encountered two fierce tigers and that you might be in great danger. So, my fellow villagers and I came up the mountain to look for you."
Jiang Hong glanced around at them and found that except for Lu Changming who was seriously injured, the others looked fine.
He caught sight of the yellow and white fur behind Lu Changming. "Is that a tiger? Have you subdued the tiger?"
Someone took the lead and told him about the tigers, and Lu Changming moved away, revealing both tigers.
"Oh my god, two more! Little brother, how did you do it? How are you so good? You managed to kill two adult tigers. You are... amazing."
"The young are to be feared." A hunter couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Changming lowered his head in embarrassment. It was not him who beat the two tigers, but Lu Changgong and Su Sijin. However, he could not give Lu Changgong away, so he had to admit it.
"Pa pa pa." Su Sijin clapped her hands to remind everyone.
"It's not advisable to stay in the forest for long. Let's leave this place first!"
She was worried that Lu Changming would be harassed again. Given his impulsive personality, she was worried that he would be tricked into confessing something.
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and noisily carried the tiger away, while Lu Changming continued to carry Lu Changgong on his back.
The noisy sounds quickly attracted the attention of the people at the foot of the mountain. They waited eagerly and finally saw the people coming back carrying two huge adult tigers.
"This tiger was killed by little brother Lu Changming. How to distribute it is up to the head of the Lu family." Jiang Hong nipped everyone's thoughts in the bud.
These two tigers are worth at least four hundred taels. Money is tempting, and who wouldn’t want to take a bite of the fat meat that’s right in front of their mouths?
"Lu Changming is only a small boy, how could he possibly kill two adult tigers?"
"That is to say, these are not two hares, but two adult tigers. Mr. Jiang, you must speak with facts and evidence, and you can't speak nonsense."
Immediately, an exile refuted Jiang Hong's fallacy.
Jiang Hong retorted, "Don't generalize or judge a person by appearance. When we went there, they had already brought the tiger to the foot of the mountain. The brothers who went with me can testify to this."
The people with Jiang Hong nodded hurriedly, "Mr. Jiang is right, we are just helping to carry the tiger back."
Su Sijin immediately stated, "It's not easy for everyone to be away from home. My husband has decided to divide the tiger among everyone, but we want to keep the two tiger skins."
Lu Changgong raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Su Sijin to do this in his name.
Lu Changgong met everyone's expectant eyes and nodded silently.
Suddenly, the crowd erupted in cheers.
The matter of the tiger had been discussed, and Su Sijin looked for Shen Tingyun and Lu Changji in the crowd for a long time but didn't see them.
She looked across the crowd at Xu Yongsi and asked doubtfully, "Uncle Xu, where are my third brother and Miss Shen?"
After Su Sijin finished speaking, the scene that was cheering just now suddenly became quiet. Some people wanted to speak but stopped, and some shook their heads helplessly.
The expressions on their faces made Su Sijin realize that something might have happened to them. "Uncle Xu, what happened to them?"
