I saw Li Ergou and Lao Liu pacing around anxiously.
Hearing the third brother's shout, the two of them suddenly raised their heads, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they quickly responded loudly.
"Third brother! We are here!"
"Third brother! You guys finally came out. You scared me to death."
As he spoke, he took big strides and ran towards this side.
"Third brother! You guys finally came out. I knew you were okay!"
Lao Liu was running out of breath, but his face was filled with joy.
"Yeah, that's great! You finally came out! We were so worried just now, we thought something had happened. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."
Ergou also echoed, opening his arms and giving the third brother a big hug.
However, when he saw that Meng Xiangyu was not in the crowd, his heart skipped a beat and the smile on his face froze instantly.
The originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Everyone fell silent, and their eyes all fell on the third brother.
"Where's our eldest brother?"
Li Ergou hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but ask.
His voice trembled slightly, and he was obviously very nervous and worried.
Li Ergou asked while looking into the woods behind them, looking for Meng Xiangyu.
Lao Liu also reacted, swallowed nervously and asked.
"Big brother isn't with you three? Big brother didn't come down with you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the joy of reunion was instantly diluted and the atmosphere became solemn.
The third and fourth brothers lowered their heads and said nothing, while the fifth brother sighed and said.
"Big brother left with that young wife, and the three of us didn't catch up. We sat there on the mountain and waited for a while, but didn't wait for Big brother. Instead, we waited for Xiao Yunfei and his group who were going up the mountain to look for someone. Xiao Yunfei continued to lead people to look for Big brother, and asked this little brother to take the three of us down the mountain first. We didn't want to cause trouble, so we went down first."
Lao Wu's emotions were relatively stable and his expressions were clear.
After hearing this, the second and sixth brothers' eyes were filled with deep worry.
They looked at each other and no one spoke for a while.
At this time, Yang Xiaowei suddenly asked.
"Are you guys all right staying here? Do you want me to stay with you? If not, I'll go back and see if I can help."
After hearing this, several people hurriedly spoke.
"We're fine, we don't need you to accompany us."
"Can you go back by yourself? Be sure to be safe."
"Yes, be careful."
"We are really useless, so I'll have to trouble you for help."
Hearing them say this, Yang Xiaowei nodded and said.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm mainly worried about you guys. You must stay here and don't move until we come back."
After giving them instructions, Yang Xiaowei turned around and walked into the woods again without hesitation.
Li Ergou and the others kept looking at the direction where Yang Xiaowei disappeared, and only spoke when they could no longer hear the footsteps.
"Alas, I don't know if Xiao Yunfei has found my brother."
"Big brother, you are a lucky person, and nothing will happen to you."
"You see, this is such a commotion. If I had known, I wouldn't have joined in the fun and imitated others running up the mountain."
"Yeah, it would be nice to just stay at home. If you had stayed at home, nothing like this would have happened."
"Okay, stop sighing. You three must be exhausted. Sit down and rest for a while."
"I was really exhausted. Fortunately, Yang Xiaowei slowed down and waited for us, otherwise I would have died on the mountain."
"Yang Xiaowei is actually a pretty good person. I've found that the people around Xiao Yunfei are all pretty good, and they obey Xiao Yunfei's orders."
As they were talking, Li Ergou suddenly interrupted them.
"Old Three, Old Four, Old Five, tell me what happened to you on the mountain first."
"Okay, we were trying our best to follow Big Brother and the others, but then I couldn't keep up, so I wanted to take a break..."
As the third brother was speaking, the fifth brother suddenly spoke in surprise.
"Oh, there's something really weird."
"What's up?"
"Zhang Xing used the eldest brother's clothes to tell fortunes. He said that the eldest brother was fine, but injured and unable to move. He also said that there was only one woman by his side."
Lao Wu finished speaking in one breath.
In fact, he had wanted to talk about Zhang Xing's fortune-telling for a long time, but with Xiao Yunfei's people around him, it was not convenient for them to talk about this, so he kept it in his heart and didn't say it.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Liu asked in surprise.
"Fortune-telling? Zhang Xing knows fortune-telling? Isn't he a doctor?"
Li Ergou also frowned and said.
"How come we've never heard anyone say Zhang Xing can tell fortunes? Does he really know how to do it, or is he just making it up?"
The fourth brother shook his head and said, "There's no need for him to bluff. I think he should know a little bit, but I don't know if his calculations are accurate."
The third brother said, "I agree with what the fourth brother said. I also think that he has no need to bluff people, so he must still calculate. And did you two pay attention to Xiao Yunfei and the others' reactions at that time? They seemed to trust Zhang Xing very much."
After hearing this, Lao Wu stroked his chin and spoke slowly.
"If Zhang Xing's calculations are accurate, and based on his results, he said the woman with Big Brother must be Yang Xiaohua. He also said Big Brother was injured. So, do you think there's a possibility that Big Brother has been waiting for us because he's injured and can't move?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought.
Li Ergou said, "It's possible, but why did Big Brother get hurt? Was it Yang Xiaohua's fault, or was it just Big Brother's carelessness?"
"If it was Yang Xiaohua who did it, then Big Brother would be in danger. He was already injured and couldn't move around easily. If Yang Xiaohua did something to Big Brother again..."
"Don't overthink it. Yang Xiaohua is a woman. She can't possibly be so bold as to harm Big Brother."
"Yang Xiaohua has already revealed herself to us. If anything happens to Big Brother, we'll be the first to find her. If she wants to kill Big Brother, she's courting death. We can't possibly let her off if something happens to Big Brother, so I think she must be planning something else."
"That's strange. Yang Xiaohua went to such great lengths to leave Big Brother alone. She didn't dare to kill him. Could it be that she was after money? I don't think it's possible that she was after Big Brother's body."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement.
Although it sounds a bit unbelievable, if you think about it carefully, it is not completely impossible.
At this moment, the five brothers at the foot of the mountain were already anxious and restless.
At the same time, Xiao Yunfei and others who were on the mountain searching for the missing persons suddenly heard shouts coming from far away.
"Is anyone there? I'm here! Help!"
It’s Meng Xiangyu’s voice!
