Many people around couldn't help sobbing when they saw this scene. Li Qingqing even cried so hard that her nose was dripping.
Zhou's father had been holding on for a long time, but now he couldn't stand and was about to fall. Zhou Songbai and Zhou Laoer supported him. Zhou Laoda's eyes were red, "Mom, take Tiedan and Ludan home first."
Meng Zhiyu walked up and touched Tiedan and Ludan's faces. At this time, they were trembling all over and looked confused.
She didn't say anything, turned around and ran to the yard as fast as she could, took out her backpack, put some of the snacks she bought in it, filled a pot with spiritual spring water, and took out the silver needle from the space.
At the gate, I bumped into Li Tingman and the others who had returned. "Xiaoyu, what are you doing?"
Meng Zhiyu ate some candy to satisfy his hunger and said, "Listen, Sister Man, I'm going to the mountains to find medicine."
Mu Ziwei and the others were surprised, "Aren't you not going?"
Meng Zhiyu smiled and said, "I'm going."
Anyway, she has a golden finger, so she can hide in it when she encounters danger. If she really dies, maybe she can go back to the beach house.
Li Tingman pulled Meng Zhiyu away and said, "Wait a moment."
She came out holding two cans of beef. "These are the only two left. I'll give them to you. Beef can increase your strength."
Meng Zhiyu took a jar and said, "Thank you. I'll treat you to some braised pork when you get back."
Arriving at the Zhou family's house, the place was desolate and filled with cries. Zhou Songbai, who was sitting in the yard with his head in his arms, was surprised to see Meng Zhiyu. He asked, "Meng Zhiqing, what's wrong with you?"
Meng Zhiyu looked at his red eyes and said, "Get ready. Once I finish giving Tiedan and Ludan acupuncture, we'll go up the mountain."
Goudan, who was crying silently in the corner, heard this and jumped up and ran to Meng Zhiyu, "Sister Meng, is this true? Then my brother doesn't have to die?"
Meng Zhiyu touched his little head and said, "I'm not sure, but I will try my best."
Goudan cheered and quickly ran into the house, shouting, "Mom, mom, Sister Meng is here, my brother doesn't have to die."
The captain came out of the room and Meng Zhiyu said before he could speak, "Captain, I volunteered. If anything goes wrong, it has nothing to do with you. Li Tingman and the others can prove it."
Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou's faces were swollen. They staggered to the yard, each holding Meng Zhiyu's arm and crying, "Meng Zhiqing, are you really going to the mountains?"
Seeing her nod, he cried even louder, "Meng Zhiqing, we will all follow you up the mountain to help you keep away the wild boars."
Zhou's mother asked them to let go, "You stay and take care of the children, I will follow."
Although she didn't have much skill, she still had some strength. At worst, as her two daughters-in-law said, if she encountered wild wolves, wild boars or something, she could help block them.
Meng Zhiyu refused, "Auntie Zhou, you still have to take care of the household. Just let Brother Zhou accompany me."
Zhou's mother doesn't know the medicine, so it's useless to go.
Mother Zhou's eyes were red as she held Meng Zhiyu's hand. "I don't know what to say, but I know I shouldn't have let you go. It's my selfishness. You should act accordingly. If it really doesn't work out, then go down the mountain. Your own safety is the most important thing."
Then he looked at his three sons and said, "Third brother, you are most familiar with the mountains. If the situation is not right, let your eldest and second brothers block it, and you protect Meng Zhiqing and leave first."
Zhou Songbai nodded, looking serious, "Don't worry, I know."
Meng Zhiyu first gave the two children acupuncture to detoxify. Zhou's mother put all the steamed buns in the pot into a bag and asked her eldest son to take it. She also filled several large pots of water and asked her second son to carry it.
He boiled a dozen more eggs and asked his third son to take them. "These are specially for Meng Zhiqing."
By the time they packed up and went out, it was already dark. The three Zhou Songbai brothers each took a torch and a large flashlight and surrounded Meng Zhiyu.
Entering the back mountain area, Wangcai jumped out and said, "Host, I can remind you if you encounter medicinal herbs."
Meng Zhiyu was surprised, "That's great." This will make their work much easier.
"Host, we have a radio device in our mall that can repel wild beasts. It only costs 1888 and you can take it home."
Meng Zhiyu looked at the total number of gold coins he had, one thousand nine hundred and three, and gritted his teeth, "I want it."
Nothing is more important than life. Although she is determined to face an accident, who doesn't want to live?
"Ding Dong, the radio wave repellent was purchased successfully, and the remaining balance is fifteen gold coins."
Meng Zhiyu held the machine in his hand, turned on the button according to Wangcai's instructions, and put it in his pocket.
Zhou Lao Da led the way, Zhou Lao Er walked at the back, and Zhou Songbai carefully protected Meng Zhiyu in the middle, saying, "Meng Zhiqing, if you can't walk anymore, just say so and sit in the backpack. I'll carry you."
Meng Zhiyu glanced at the backpack behind him and asked doubtfully, "Won't the backpack collapse?"
The torchlight shone on Zhou Songbai's face, and he said with certainty, "The backpacks we weave at home are very sturdy. We've carried pigs weighing over a hundred pounds in them before, and it's no problem. It will definitely be even easier to carry you in."
Meng Zhiyu, "..."
Is this a compliment that she is lighter than a pig?
Humph, no wonder he’s still single at the age of 23. All the guys who are one year younger than him are already fathers of two children.
She heard this from Aunt Niu. Aunt Niu and Aunt Wang are old sisters, both of whom are top gossip experts in the village.
By the time Meng Zhiyu and his companions reached the inner circle of the back mountain, it was already past one in the morning. They had already found the lobelia, triangular grass, and Bidens pilosa.
Meng Zhiyu held onto the backpack behind Zhou Songbai and walked with difficulty. The main reason was that there were a lot of weeds in the inner circle and the ground was very uneven. If he didn't walk carefully, he would fall if he twisted his foot.
After doing this many times, Meng Zhiyu found a good way to grab Zhou Songbai's backpack.
"Hiss~" Meng Zhiyu felt a pain under his feet, not knowing what he had stepped on. He retracted his foot reflexively, but he managed to avoid falling by holding on to the backpack with his hands and pulling hard.
Zhou Songbai held her arm, made sure she was standing steady, and quickly let go. "What's wrong?"
"I stepped on something sharp." Meng Zhiyu felt the lingering pain on the sole of his foot.
Zhou Dalang shone his flashlight over and said, "It's a big hedgehog."
A hedgehog? Meng Zhiyu quickly put down his feet and walked over. Seeing that it was still breathing and had not been crushed to death by his kick, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief. At least it was not dead.
Seeing her startled, Zhou Songbai asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this hedgehog? Is it the medicinal herb you're looking for?"
The eldest and second oldest Zhou brothers also looked over. Meng Zhiyu shook his head. "There's a saying in my hometown that hedgehogs shouldn't be hurt."
I heard from her grandmother that hedgehogs are very intelligent and spiritual, and hurting them will bring bad luck, but in this era people are not allowed to believe in such things.
It was the first time that the three Zhou brothers heard such a statement, so they preferred to believe it. So they apologized to the big hedgehog for stepping on it, and then continued on their way.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Meng Zhiyu felt her eyes were sore and her legs were getting heavier and heavier. If there was a bed, she could lie down and sleep.
Zhou Songbai had been walking on Meng Zhiyu's right side and quickly noticed her condition. "Why don't you sit in the backpack?"
Meng Zhiyu waved her hand to refuse. She still had to find herbs. Although she was not afraid of missing out with Wangcai, it would still arouse suspicion.
She drank a few sips of the spiritual spring water and continued on her way.
