Chapter 174 No need to wait, Li Suining is back
When we reached the foot of the mountain, the hunter was already waiting there.
"Let's go. Follow me closely and don't run around. I've walked this road for several years and there's no danger." The uncle took the lead.
Qingyun lowered his head and opened his arms to Tuanzi, trying hard to suppress the upward curve of his mouth, "Xiao Suining, I'll hold you."
Help! He was so excited about this that he couldn’t sleep last night. He was finally going to hold the cuddly Miss Seven in his arms. He was so happy.
"Brother Qingyun, can I walk on my own for a while?" The little guy tilted his head back and said in a baby voice, "But I might walk a little slowly, is that okay?"
"Ah?" Qingyun was obviously startled. "You... want to walk by yourself? But the mountain road is very difficult to walk on, and you just got sick. Let me carry you."
Yang Heng next to him was also a little surprised. This kid... was really different from the children he had seen.
She is usually very quiet, and doesn't make a fuss when she is sick. She can even drink very bitter medicine with her eyes closed... Now, she even has to climb such a dangerous mountain by herself.
For the first time, the bearded man, who didn't even have a wife, wanted a daughter like this.
"Brother Qingyun, I want to try it. I'll just walk for a while. It won't affect everyone's progress." Little Tuanzi was still very persistent.
She didn't want to rely on Qingyun for everything.
"Okay." Qingyun could only agree, but he made another request that he could not compromise on. "However, Xiao Suining must let me hold your hand. That way, even if there is danger, I can save you in time."
"Okay!" The little dumpling nodded heavily, and then said to the bearded man, "Uncle Hum, you go first, we'll follow behind."
"Okay!" Yang Heng quickly followed.
The little dumpling stretched out his chubby little hand and took Qingyun's big hand, then ran forward happily, "Brother Qingyun, hurry up, we have to catch up with them."
"Okay, be careful and don't fall." Qingyun was so happy.
After entering the mountain, the road was indeed difficult to walk on. Although there was a hunter uncle cutting some weeds in front, Xiao Suining still had some difficulty walking.
She was too short, and after the hunter removed some of the grass, the remaining grass was still very tall for her.
Fortunately, Yang Heng in front subconsciously stepped on the grass to make it easier for the little girl to walk.
As Yang Heng stepped on the grass, he silently told himself, "Second Young Master, don't be angry. I'm not helping her. It's just...if she gets bitten to death by a poisonous snake, General Bai will definitely be sad."
When they were about halfway up the mountain, Li Suining felt that it was almost time. She stood still and called out to the bearded man in front of her, "Uncle Hehehe."
"Huh?" Yang Heng looked back in confusion. Did the little dumpling regret it?
"Uncle Hengheng, can you hold me?" The little boy stretched out his two little arms and asked the bearded man to hold him, "I can't walk anymore."
"..." Yang Heng subconsciously looked at Qingyun.
“…” Qingyun was about to cry. Didn’t he deserve it?
He tried hard not to cry, and asked in a bitter tone, "Xiao Suining, can't I...can't I hold you?"
It’s obvious that the bearded man is the bad guy sent by Bai Yu’an, so why is the little girl asking him for a hug?
"No." Li Suining shook his little head, still looking at Yang Heng pitifully, "Uncle Hengheng, give me a hug!"
She remembered very clearly that if they walked a little further, Big Beard would be bitten by a poisonous snake. At this time, she had to help Uncle Big Beard.
Yang Heng stood still, looking at Qingyun with some embarrassment.
"What are you still hesitating about? Come and hug her. Do you want me to kneel down and beg you?" Qingyun's voice was already filled with tears.
He felt really wronged. He obviously liked Xiaotuanzi so much, so why didn't Xiaotuanzi like him at all?
"Okay." Yang Heng turned back, looked at the milky white ball standing in front of him, bent down carefully, and picked him up.
No one had ever told him what it felt like to hold the little dumpling, sweet and soft. No wonder even a tough guy like General Bai couldn't bear to refuse this dumpling.
Several people continued on their way.
The little ball was held in his arms, but he was more alert than before. His round eyes looked around, trying to find the location of the poisonous snake first.
But the frustrating thing is that she found nothing.
However, Yang Heng, when he glanced at the grass next to him, actually discovered a particularly rare herb. He immediately ran towards it excitedly.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't go!"
Qingyun and Tuanzi's voices rang out almost at the same time, and the next second, Yang Heng's scream was heard.
"Ahhhhhhh..." His leg was bitten.
Qingyun stabbed the venomous snake in the groin with his sword, and the snake instantly loosened its grip and fell dead. He grabbed the little ball back without saying anything, "Sui Ning, are you okay?"
Yang Heng sat on the ground in pain.
The hunter uncle who was walking not far ahead immediately ran back. He lifted up Yang Heng's trouser leg and saw two teeth marks that had turned purple. His face was instantly filled with worry and he said, "No, we must go back immediately, otherwise, you will die."
Yang Heng had a big bearded face, but his eyes looked particularly pitiful.
He didn't expect that in the end, he would become the one who implicated everyone.
"Don't be afraid, Uncle Hengheng. We're going back now." Little Tuanzi patted Qingyun, "Brother Qingyun, put me down quickly. You and Uncle Hunter can carry Uncle Hengheng down the mountain together. I can walk by myself."
Yang Heng instantly felt even sadder, "It's okay, I can leave."
He tried hard to stand up, but found that his legs had no strength and half of his body was numb.
"Brother Qingyun, hurry up, I'm really fine, it's easy to go down the mountain." Little Tuanzi was very determined.
"Okay!" Qingyun could only obey and slowly put the little dumpling down. "Be careful and protect yourself."
"Yeah!" Little Dumpling nodded vigorously.
The group immediately returned along the same route and hurried down the mountain.
Yang Heng was supported by Qingyun and Hunter on his left and right. He looked back at the little girl from time to time. The little girl had fallen several times and was injured on her face and hands, but every time she met his eyes, she would grin.
Yang Heng couldn't help but think: I deserve to die!
——
Four days later, the large army once again chose a place outside the town, set up camp, and let everyone rest.
Bai Yunfeng looked in the direction they came from. According to the original agreement, Xiao Suining and the others should have caught up today, but it was almost dark, so why was there still no sign of them?
Bai Yu'an, Bai Shi'an and You Zhu were also beside him.
"Dad, there's no need to wait." Bai Yu'an sighed and spoke slowly, "Li Suining should have gone back."
Bai Yunfeng frowned and looked at him, "How do you know?"
Bai Shian said with certainty, "Impossible, my sister won't go back. They...may have been delayed by something."
"I asked Yang Heng to send them back." Bai Yu'an looked at Bai Yunfeng's angry eyes with a calm expression.
