Chapter 172



As the son of the village head, Jiang Yue naturally became the leader of the people at this time. With a big hand, "tie him up first, so that he won't steal again while we sleep at night."

Everyone has no objection. The ropes are ready-made and ready to tie people immediately.

Zhao Quan knew that if he was tied and brought back, he would have to fight again.

Taking advantage of people's unprepared, he held back his pain and climbed out of the cave.

The crowd ran out of the cave.

It's midnight. It's dark at night. There are trees and grass everywhere in the mountains. Zhao is short and dark. He casually found a bush and disappeared.

Others wanted to catch up again, but Gu Fei stopped them.

"Stop chasing. It's hard to walk in the mountains at night. It's easy to encounter danger."

So everyone went back to the cave.

Because of what happened just now, Gu Fei and Jiang Yue were sleepless. They rekindled the fire, sat around the fire and waited quietly for dawn.

The temperature tonight is very low. Many people curl up because of the cold.

The more Jiang saw it, the more he burned the fire.

Gu Fei looked at the direction outside the cave. After a while, he suddenly said something.

"It's snowing."

……

When he woke up early in the morning, Jiang Weiwei found that it was snowing outside.

The sky is full of snowflakes, like goose feathers, and the ground has accumulated a thin layer of snow.

Looking at the beautiful snow scene in front of him, Jiang Wei frowned.

Once it snows, the atmosphere in the mountains will drop suddenly. I wonder if Gu Fei will not be frozen?

At this time, Gu's mother also came out.

When she saw the snow outside, she was also worried: "why did the snow come so early today? In previous years, it didn't start snowing until December at least. Now it's only mid November. "

Because of the snow and slippery road, Xiuer came late today.

As soon as she entered the door, she kept rubbing her hands and exhaling heat from her mouth: "the weather is so strange that it began to snow when it was cold. I'm freezing to death!"

Fortunately, I have stored a lot of firewood and charcoal at home, so I don't worry about heating.

There was a big pot of charcoal fire in the main room.

Jiang Weiwei and Gu's mother sit around the fire to keep warm.

Gu's mother asked, "it's so cold today. Do you want to go to the health hall?"

"Well, go and have a look. If no one comes, I'll come back."

Xiuer finished her breakfast in a hurry.

After breakfast, the three practiced strong body boxing once or twice as usual.

Jiang Weiwei walked forward against the wind and snow with an oil paper umbrella and a thick cloak.

Because of the sudden heavy snow, today's Yunshan village is very quiet. There are almost no people on the road. It seems that everyone is hiding at home to keep warm. There's no way. It's too cold.

When Jiang Weiwei came to the health hall, a thick layer of snow had fallen on the oil paper umbrella, and he was stained with a lot of snow residue.

A Tao stepped up quickly, took her cloak off and hung it next to the stove to dry.

Very few people came to the health hall today, only a few.

Jiang Weiwei can handle it alone. Zhan Chunsheng sits next to the brazier with Zhuang Zhuang, warming the fire and telling a story.

When Zhan Chunsheng was young, he searched for rare medicinal materials, went to many places and saw many strange things.

He told Zhuang Zhuang what he had seen and heard as a story.

Zhuang Zhuang listened with interest.

A Tao buried some sweet potatoes in the brazier, and soon the smell of roasted sweet potatoes spread in the main room.

She dug out the roasted sweet potatoes and gave each one a share.

After this kind of sweet potato is roasted, it tastes soft, waxy and sweet, especially delicious.

But Jiang Weiwei was absent-minded.

Looking at the snow outside, she became more and more worried about Gu Fei, who was still hunting in the mountains.

I hope they can come back safely before the snow closes the mountain.

……

Gu Fei, Jiang Yue and others had planned to go down the mountain when the snow was small, but after waiting all day, the snow didn't stop.

Seeing the snow in the mountain getting thicker and thicker, ice cubes gradually condensed from the branches, the people couldn't wait at last.

Gu Fei said in a deep voice: "the snow should not become smaller in a short time. While we can walk on the mountain road, let's hurry down the mountain."

Everyone agreed.

Someone suddenly asked, "what about Zhao Quan? He hasn't come back yet. If we just leave him alone, he will die in the mountain, won't he? "

Once the mountain is closed by heavy snow, it will be difficult for people in the mountain to go out. At that time, Zhao Quan alone will freeze to death in the mountain, even if he is not starved to death.

No one said a word.

Although they hated Zhao Quan, they didn't want him to die.

As the leader among them, Jiang Yue had to make a choice at this time.

"We are divided into two groups. One group goes down the mountain first, and the other group goes to find Zhao Quan."

Everyone looked at each other.

They know very well that if they stay to look for people, they have to take a great risk.

Jiang Yue took the lead in saying, "I'll stay and find someone."

He is the son of the village head. He must set an example at this time.

Jiang Yue took the lead, and then several men said they were willing to help find someone.

Jiang Yue recorded their faces one by one in his mind. There were only four people in total. They were very young and had not married yet, so they didn't have much burden.

But those men who had married and had children all chose silence.

It's not that they are greedy for life and afraid of death. They really can't give up their daughter-in-law and children.

Jiang Yue expressed his understanding and was about to say two words of comfort when he heard Gu Fei, who had been silent, suddenly opened his mouth.

"I'll stay, Jiang Yue, you go back."

Everyone was stunned.

Jiang Yue hurriedly said, "no, I'll just stay. Go back and don't let your family worry for too long."

Gu Fei said calmly, "your daughter-in-law is pregnant and should be born next month. If you don't go back all the time, your daughter-in-law must be worried. If it affects the children in your belly, you will regret it all your life."

Hearing this, Jiang Yue stopped talking.

Indeed, even if he ignored himself, he had to take into account his daughter-in-law and unborn children.

Gu Fei didn't give him much time to hesitate and weigh. He directly carried the burden on his back and said to the young men who chose to stay: "go and find someone."

The four men immediately carried their own baggage, followed Gu Fei out of the cave and looked for people in the mountains against the wind and snow.

Jiang Yue wiped his face fiercely, looked at the others with red eyes, and gritted his teeth.

"Let's go down the mountain!"

The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the snow on the ground is getting thicker and thicker.

Seeing the sky getting dark, the people who went up the mountain still didn't come back.

Not only Jiang Weiwei, but also the others in the village were in a hurry.

The village head's eldest daughter-in-law braved the wind and snow to the health hall and shouted to the river: "let's discuss going up the mountain to find someone, little girl. Come and listen."

Because of the heavy snow these two days, the health hall was deserted. Few people came to see a doctor. Everyone was very free.

Hearing the speech, Jiang Weiwei immediately stood up, took the cloak from a Tao, put it on, walked out of the door with an oil paper umbrella, and rushed to the village head's house with the village head's eldest daughter-in-law.
