Chapter 142 Why didn’t you say it earlier?
"Oh, don't mention it." Old Man Chen sighed. "It's all my bad luck. I ran into Wu Baoan and his gang of fools. They insisted on dragging me to rescue Dabao. But I didn't find Dabao. Instead, I discovered that Zhanliang had fallen off a cliff. I carried him for more than ten miles. I was almost exhausted to death."
"You're such an idiot! It's pitch dark out here, and you just go when he asks you to. You deserve to be exhausted!"
"I didn't want to go, but I was so nervous that I blurted out something, so I had no choice but to go. Fortunately, I found Zhan Liang halfway. If I had really gone to Wild Wolf Valley, I wouldn't have been able to come back."
"Did you find Dabao and that dead girl?"
"I didn't even see a single person. Maybe they've already been fed to the wolves."
"Good, that ungrateful bastard is finally dead. Our good days are here now." Old Mrs. Chen slapped her thigh with joy.
Old Man Chen was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Are you stupid? That damn girl made so much money. As long as she dies, the boss's family will be at our mercy."
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that!" The tiredness on Old Man Chen's face immediately disappeared, and he grinned, "That damn girl is the stumbling block of our family. As long as she dies, I don't believe that I can't cure the eldest brother and his wife."
Old Mrs. Chen also laughed so hard that she couldn't stop. She stretched her neck to look out the door and said, "Oh, right, you said Zhan Liang fell into the ravine. How is he?"
"Nothing serious, just a broken leg."
"He broke his leg and it will take a hundred days for the injury to heal. There will be no one to do the housework in the future. What should we do?" Old Mrs. Chen did not have the slightest concern or heartache. The first thing that came to her mind was that there would be no one to help with the housework.
At this time, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside the yard, and then Wu Baoan hurried into the yard.
"Zhan Liang from the second family is injured."
When Sun heard the shouting, she ran out of the house in a hurry. She was worried about Dabao's safety and was so anxious that she couldn't sleep all night.
Seeing Chen Zhanliang being carried back, his head buzzed, his vision went dark, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
She forced herself to run over and looked at the man with a pale face and closed eyes. She was anxious and asked, "Village head, what happened to Zhan Liang?"
"Let's go inside first."
Wu Baoan ordered everyone to carry Chen Zhanliang into the house and settle him down, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Second brother, don't worry. Zhan Liang broke his leg and must have fainted from the pain. He's not in danger of death."
"He broke his leg. What about Dabao?"
Wu Baoan frowned and shook his head. "Second brother, take good care of Zhanliang at home. Hurry up and ask a doctor to come and check his leg. I'll take people to find Dabao right away."
Sun nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, Li Zheng. I will go and get the doctor in a moment."
Wu Baoan walked out of the house and shouted to the villagers who were almost exhausted, "Dabao is still in the Wild Wolf Valley and his life or death is uncertain. I'll trouble you all to take the trouble to follow me into the mountains."
When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, Li Zheng. As long as we still have some strength, we will never give up."
"That's right. As long as we don't find Dabao, we won't go down the mountain."
"Yes, hurry up, saving people is important."
“.......”
Seeing how passionate they were speaking, Old Man Chen rolled his eyes in anger. These bastards really think they are heroes!
I'm almost dying of exhaustion now. If I really go to Wild Wolf Valley again, it won't be like saving people. It will be like looking for my ancestors and committing suicide.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, "All of you, calm down and stop trying to show off. Now, let alone going to the Wild Wolf Valley, I guess someone will collapse from exhaustion before we can even leave the village.
If you ask me, we should all go back to our own homes, have a good sleep, eat and drink our fill, and then we can make plans."
Wu Baoan was so anxious that he kept shaking his head. "Uncle Zhonghou, you are right, but saving people is the most important thing now. There is no time to waste!"
"Security guard, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You usually look smart, but how come you become a fool at the critical moment?
Think about it, Dabao has been missing for a day and a night. The Wild Wolf Valley is full of dangers. I think he should have been gone long ago. Even if we go there, we probably won't even find his bones.
As the head of a village, you have to consider the overall situation and not take risks for a dead person.
If any villager meets with misfortune again, you will be the sinner of our village. Think carefully before you make your decision whether to go or not."
After hearing what Old Man Chen said, Wu Baoan's expression became serious. He thought about it carefully and felt that there was some truth in it. Now everyone was tired and hungry, and they had to ensure their own safety before going into the mountains again to rescue people.
At this moment, Lin hurried over from the next yard. She looked for Chen Qingqing in the crowd but couldn't find her. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
Her voice trembled, "Zhanshan, why hasn't Qing girl come back?"
Chen Zhanshan was stunned, his eyes wide open, "What did you say, Qing girl also went to Wild Wolf Valley?"
Lin's face turned pale. "She asked me to look for you last night. When I came back, Cuiqin told me that Zhanliang left right after Qingya chased him out."
Sun Shi then realized that Chen Qingqing was not among the crowd. She shuddered, "Brother, sister-in-law, it was me who harmed Qing girl."
Chen Zhanshan's eyes went dark and he nearly fainted. He struggled to stand, "Why didn't you stop her and just let her go to Wild Wolf Valley?"
Old Man Chen sighed softly and said slowly, "You don't know what her temper is like. She is simply a stubborn person. No one can stop her from doing what she wants to do. She rushed out in a hurry. This time, she is probably fed to the wolves."
Old Mrs. Chen's eyes were filled with gloating. "That's right, it's her fault for trying to show off. Now she's fallen!"
Chen Zhanshan's eyes were blazing with anger. He glared at Old Man Chen fiercely and demanded, "You knew last night that Qing Yatou had also gone to Wild Wolf Valley, but why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Wu Baoan was so anxious that he stamped his feet. "Uncle Zhonghou, since you knew that Qing Yatou went after Zhan Liang, why didn't you tell us? Since we can find Zhan Liang, maybe we can find Qing Yatou too."
Old Man Chen's face froze, and he stiffened his neck and said, "What do you want me to say? Even if I did, what would happen? A money-losing guy died, so what's the big deal? I didn't tell you because it was for your own good. If you really went into the Wild Wolf Valley, you might have been fed to the wolves long ago, and you're still standing here talking."
"That's right, why are you yelling at us old couple? What does her death have to do with us? Why should we say anything? You are really sick!" Old Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes in disdain.
"Okay, that's great." Chen Zhanshan was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and the little family affection left in his heart disappeared completely.
Wu Baoan was extremely anxious and shouted, "Stop arguing and follow me into the mountains to rescue people."
