Li Mingxi had no idea that someone was thinking about her. Seeing that there was a cave not far ahead, she spoke.
"Xiaoyi, Xiaode, you two wait here for a while, I'll go take a look ahead!"
Li Mingde glanced at his brother and saw that he had no intention of speaking, so he spoke.
"Sister, what are you going to do? That cave looks dark and a little scary. Don't tell me you want to go in and see if there's anything there. The fact is that there really is nothing in there. Why do you keep thinking about it? If you have that time, you might as well catch more things so we can have more meat!"
When Li Mingyi heard his brother talking about hunting, he immediately became speechless. "That's right, sister, didn't you say you would take us up the mountain to relax and catch some food? We haven't found much yet. Before we left, you asked us to carry such a big basket, but how much have we put in it so far?"
Li Mingxi glanced at his twin brothers, then said helplessly, "Okay, what do you want to do? Tell me, as long as I can do it, I'll satisfy you."
This time, without waiting for his brother to speak, Li Mingyi spoke first, "I don't have any other ideas, I just want to catch more food and take it back to satisfy my craving!"
Li Mingxi nodded. It was not difficult to eat meat. She still had a lot of things in her space. When the time came, she could just find a chance to take them out!
"Okay, I'll grant you this wish. What about you, Xiao De? What do you want to do?"
As she spoke, she turned her eyes and looked at Li Mingde beside her.
Li Mingde looked at his brother who was looking at him eagerly, then looked at his sister, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Sister, I don't want to do anything. I just don't want you to go see that cave. Don't you think it's better for us to just live our own lives? Why do you have to go see that cave? What's so good about it? Everyone says there's a treasure inside, but who has seen it? Besides, if there really is something inside, wouldn't the commune send someone? Sister, just forget about it, okay?"
Li Mingxi nodded. She couldn't blame her brother for not understanding her. After all, the child didn't know what she saw. Moreover, she really didn't know how to explain to the child about the button she saw.
Therefore, in the end, she could only sigh helplessly and then speak.
"Forget it, I don't blame you for not understanding. However, Xiao De, I must go to that cave!"
Hearing this, Li Mingde looked at his sister in confusion, "Why? Sister, you've seen it before, there's nothing inside. Why do you have to worry about it? Our family is not that poor that we can't afford to eat. What's the point of thinking about it?"
Li Mingxi just looked at her brother indifferently without saying a word. Seeing her like this, Li Mingde finally knew that he could no longer control her and could only sigh helplessly.
"Okay, do whatever you want, I can't control you!"
"However, we have to go in with you. If there is any danger, we can protect you then!"
Li Mingxi didn't need them to follow her. She had already thought it through. The things inside must not be known to anyone. What if people started to suspect that she was the only one who could see the button among so many people?
In more serious cases, if she attracted the attention of someone with ulterior motives, they would take her away and slice her up, and that would be the end of her. Thinking of her lying on the cold machine, being cut open and studied, Li Mingxi shuddered.
No, no, that's too scary.
Look, looking at her brother, she rejected his request with a firm face.
"No, you can't come with me, just wait for me outside!"
Hearing his sister say this, Li Mingde was unwilling.
"No, sister, why? Aren't you going to look for treasure? What's wrong with us following you? Are you afraid that we will snatch it from you? Don't worry, we won't. Not to mention, there is no treasure at all!"
Of course, Li Mingxi was not afraid that he would compete with her for it. She was afraid that these two people would not be able to help her keep the secret.
After thinking for a moment, she spoke.
"No, when did I ever worry about that? I'm just worried about being discovered. Can't you two help me watch outside? Besides, even if there's any danger, you two can run back and call for help. It would be better if we all go in. Then, if there's any danger, we can just wipe it out together. What do you think?"
I have to say that Li Mingxi's mind works quite quickly. Li Mingde was left speechless by her.
After waiting for a while, he stammered, "That's not what I meant, sister. Grandma asked us to accompany you up the mountain so that we could protect you. Tell me, if you don't let us accompany you now, what if something really happens? How are we going to explain to Grandma when we get home?"
When Li Mingxi heard him say this, he just laughed.
"Is that so? This is not a big deal. I thought something was wrong. It's okay. I'll tell grandma when we get home. It was me who told her not to let you two follow me. Don't worry, I promise she won't cause any trouble for you!"
I thought my brother would agree, but even after Li Mingxi said that, he still disagreed. Instead, he looked at Li Mingxi with suspicion.
"Sister, do you have any secrets? Why do you have to get out of our sight? Don't worry, even if you have any secrets, we won't tell them. On the contrary, we will keep your secrets safe!"
At the end of his speech, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Mingxi with an expression that said, "I understand you."
There is no wall that is impenetrable. Li Mingxi really couldn't let him know. So, looking at her two younger brothers, she spoke.
"No, why don't you just stay outside and be obedient? Don't worry, you will definitely get some benefits!"
Seeing his sister's determined look, Li Mingde knew that things had come to this point and there was no point in him saying anything else.
Therefore, he could only sigh helplessly.
"Okay, okay, but you still have to be careful. I see it's pitch black in that cave. Do you really not need our help? Even if it's just one of us accompanying you, that would be fine!"
"Don't you agree, brother?"
Li Mingyi glanced at the dark cave and nodded sincerely.
"That's right, sister. Otherwise, let Xiao De accompany you in. I'll help you guard here!"
Li Mingxi had already decided to go in by herself, so no matter what, she would not agree to this request. Before Li Mingyi could finish his words, she interrupted him directly.
"Alright, you don't need to say anything more, and you don't need to persuade me anymore, just stay here!"
After saying this, she walked straight in.
