Chapter 61 I am your mother-in-law! Why don’t you pull me up quickly?
Qi Nanfeng held his breath and returned to the team. Liu chewed the dry food listlessly, staring at the pot of rabbit meat in Ruan Mansion with her mouth watering.
Seeing Qi Nanfeng return empty-handed, she sighed repeatedly: "Nanfeng, when you were in school, your mother asked you to practice archery more! Even if you don't join the army, it can save your life. How can you not even a woman..."
"If mother thinks I can't do it, why not do it yourself!"
He threw the bow and arrow at Liu's feet, not even in the mood to eat, and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Not long after, Ruan Jiao, avoiding the gazes of others, cautiously came to the bushes and handed a bowl of hot wild vegetable porridge to Qi Nanfeng.
"Sir, don't go hungry."
When Qi Nanfeng looked up, he saw her bloody face, which was made even uglier by the scabs.
He subconsciously frowned and pushed her porridge away: "No need, Miss San should not come to me again in the future. It would be inappropriate if others saw us."
This made Ruan Jiao very sad: "Master Qi, you misunderstood me. I am not as shameless as those people say. Nothing happened between me and the Second Master! I was wronged!"
But before she could finish her explanation, Qi Nanfeng had already turned away from her.
Ruan Jiao's heart felt like it was stabbed by a sharp knife.
She carefully touched the wound on her face, and angrily and anxiously overturned the bowl of hot porridge!
She was tricked by Ruan Mian, and now even Qi Nanfeng looked down on her.
Just thinking about it, countless anger burned in my heart...
After resting for a while, they continued on their journey. The forest was not very safe. If they wanted to have a good rest, they had to rush to the valley ahead as soon as possible and find rocks that could block the cold wind to avoid freezing to death.
While they were in the valley, collecting firewood nearby, Ruan Mian turned back to a path they had passed by.
After careful investigation, we found some unusual things on the road.
In addition to their footprints on the snow, from time to time one could find scraps of cloth or some neatly arranged stones on the tree trunks or grass on both sides of the road.
If you don't look carefully, it's easy to overlook.
But upon closer inspection, it is clear that the opinions are just some marks left behind.
Thinking of the three flares, Ruan Mian had a vague guess in his mind.
She looked up at the sky, and after returning to the valley, she found that visibility was a little lower, so she paid more attention to the surrounding environment.
Then he called on his family to collect as much firewood as possible.
But the amount doesn't matter. She has to pass on the message. If it's not enough, she will take advantage of everyone's inattention and add firewood and charcoal from the space.
At that time, she emptied the entire Qi Mansion, and all the firewood they had accumulated over the years was placed in the space, and it could not be burned out even after several days and nights.
As the fog in the air grew thicker, the vision became more blurred. It was already late at night, and one could not even see one's fingers when stretching out one's hand.
In the hazy darkness, the voices of the officials could be heard: "This is icy fog, making it difficult to walk. We will rest here tonight. The snow is thick on the mountain, so please do not make any noise."
Seeing that the surroundings were becoming increasingly blurry, Ruan Mian without hesitation called on his brothers and others to light up the fires, the brighter the better.
The valley is full of scattered rocks, so any rock you can use to block the enemy is good.
She held a torch and walked cautiously among the crowd, trying to find where Qi Nanfeng was at the moment.
But the fog was too thick and covered with snowflakes, making it impossible to see clearly. She was far away from the fire and felt cold, so she could only return to her family temporarily and keep an eye on her surroundings.
It wasn't until a long time later that everyone around me fell asleep.
She faintly smelled a familiar scent in the icy mist.
It's very faint and you can't really smell it unless you smell it carefully.
But the original owner had a very sensitive nose.
She stood up and took a deep breath, and suddenly the package she found in Ling Hao's tent last time appeared in her mind.
That's the smell, only stronger!
Seeing this, she immediately touched the jade bracelet and took out all the cold-proof masks sewn inside.
The original book mentioned that there was an epidemic after the disaster. To be on the safe side, she used her free time on the road and asked Cuizhu and Meixi to sew these.
A layer of gauze soaked in medicine is sewn inside, and the outside is covered with animal skin that is not very breathable, which mainly serves the purpose of keeping warm and preventing cold.
It's definitely better to put it to use now than to inhale these strange smells directly!
So she called her family and asked Cuizhu to distribute masks to everyone.
Seeing that she looked serious, her family guessed something had happened and put on masks as she asked.
Liu was disturbed by their noise, and someone nearby kindly reminded her, "Madam, let's cover it with a cloth."
Liu, however, looked disdainful: "I think you've lost your mind too. They're mentally ill, are you mentally ill too?"
She also thought that the Ruan family was very afraid of death. It was just an ice fog and it wouldn't freeze anyone to death!
Wearing these masks is simply an overreaction. They are really just business people who haven't received much education.
Ruan Mian wanted to find the police, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly saw several pairs of dark green eyes glowing faintly in the darkness not far away.
Her face changed slightly, and she turned back immediately: "Brother, Zhu'er, Meixi, go and light all the fires, and bring all the firewood to burn."
After saying that, he raised the torch and led his family forward, leaving the fire in the middle.
She said, "There's a big rock ahead, it's safer over there!"
The others couldn't see the road clearly, nor did they know where the big rock was, so they could only follow Ruan Mian.
Just as they were about to arrive, a miserable cry suddenly came from behind the fire!
"Ah...!" This shout scared everyone, but at this time, except for the people in the Ruan Mansion, those who were not wearing masks had gradually lost consciousness.
At this moment, Liu also realized with horror that she seemed to have inhaled some hallucinogenic drug and was dizzy. From time to time, she saw Nanfeng beside her, but when she rushed over, she found that there was no one there.
Sometimes you see a lot of people standing in front of you!
The remaining sanity made her cover her mouth and nose tightly, and in panic, she followed the fire.
At this moment, a wolf howled from the darkness behind her, which frightened her so much that she suddenly woke up a little and shouted loudly: "Ruan Mian! Ruan Mian!"
But there was no response from the front, and she panicked and covered her mouth and nose.
As the sounds behind me became more and more tragic, my feet began to shake, and snowflakes fell on my head from time to time.
Shouts filled the valley. Ruan Mian raised the torch and saw more and more snow rolling down from above his head.
She immediately asked her family to huddle together and hide under the huge rock.
At this moment, Liu also followed, and just as she took a step, suddenly a large piece of snow fell down, making a hole in front of her!
Liu was also tripped. She was afraid that the wolf behind her would catch up with her. She was so scared that she didn't care about anything else and immediately stretched out her hand and shouted.
"Ruan Mian!! I'm your mother-in-law! Hurry up and pull me up!"
