The stray dog didn't chase after them, but returned to Chen Nong's side. Chen Nong mustered up his courage, petted the dog, and praised it, "You're really amazing! Thank you for today!"
"I have to go home now. My family must be worried. See you next time. I'll definitely make you something delicious."
Chen Nong is feeling extremely dizzy and needs to get home quickly. He doesn't know if he can hold on.
As for the dog, he was genuinely grateful, he believed. However, they would have many more opportunities to meet in the future, and he would repay the favor next time they met. Now, he should hurry home.
Chen Nong walked slowly in the heavy rain, with stray dogs following behind him. Seeing the dogs, Chen Nong said, "Don't follow me anymore. Go back. See you next time."
The stray dogs still followed him.
After walking for a while, Chen Nong said, "My family doesn't keep dogs, you should go back!"
Seeing that the stray dog still wouldn't leave, Chen Nong cried out, "Go away! Go away! My family doesn't keep dogs!"
"My family can't afford to support you! We can't afford to support you!"
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"
It's not that his family doesn't keep dogs, it's that they can't afford to.
The hailstorm just happened, and now they can't afford to keep a dog.
Perhaps sensing Chen Nong's change in mood, the stray dog stopped following.
It watched Chen Nong quietly, then staggered away and disappeared into the grass.
Meanwhile, Old Man Chen and his group were heading towards the town. They planned to first scout out the bandits' headquarters before heading straight to rescue the people.
They had just crossed an intersection when Chen Nong staggered over, and they missed each other.
"Help...help me..."
As Chen Nong walked forward, he shouted for help, hoping to attract the attention of the people who had come looking for him.
Unexpectedly, instead of attracting the people looking for him, he attracted the bandits again.
A bandit shouted, "You little brat, where do you think you're going!"
As for why the bandits caught up so quickly, it's because when he was chased away by the dogs, he soon encountered the people from their base responsible for gathering information. In order to transmit messages in a timely manner, they were all equipped with horses, so they caught up so quickly.
After the bandits tied Chen Nong up, just as they were about to put him on their horses and take him away, three dogs suddenly appeared.
Chen Nong looked and realized that the dog from before hadn't left; it had brought two companions with it.
When it disappeared into the bushes, it didn't leave, but continued to follow Chen Nong in the shadows, protecting him.
Judging from the dog's judgment, this little two-legged monster was in bad shape and might collapse at any moment.
After following it for a while, he caught the scent of the bad two-legged creature again, as well as the scents of other two-legged creatures.
It immediately sensed danger, so it quickly gathered its hunting companions who were nearby, and they gave chase.
Four bandits and three wild dogs.
Chen Nong was worried for the dogs. Why didn't they recruit more henchmen? Now they were even fighting with one less dog than their opponents.
"Woof woof woof..."
The dog howled a few times and immediately charged at the bandit he had bitten earlier, focusing his attack on the bandits' legs.
One of the bandits roared, "Go get your weapons right now and kill these beasts! We'll eat dog meat later!"
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a dog darted around in the herd of horses, scaring them away, while another dog blocked the path of the other three.
The dog quickly bit the bandit, making him unable to move, and then he and his two companions surrounded the remaining bandits.
It's three against three now.
The bandits realized something was wrong, so they ran to the horses to get weapons. Two of them covered the other and got the weapons, but the other two were already covered in bite wounds.
He frantically waved his weapon, and the wild dogs dared not approach. He slowly retreated, with the pack of wild dogs following closely behind.
"Woof woof woof..."
"Woof woof woof..."
The two sides stood in a stalemate for a while. The Wild Dog Gang began to probe and attack the bandits, but they were forced back before they could get close.
The bandits kept brandishing their weapons, fearing that the wild dogs would pounce and tear them apart.
The bandits retreated to Chen Nong's side, and the Wild Dog Gang barked even louder.
Driven to desperation, one of the bandits brandished his weapon and slashed at Chen Nong, cursing, "You little brat, if I can't deal with them, I can at least deal with you! Today I'll make an example of you."
The stray dog that had saved Chen Nong saw that it couldn't stop him, so it pounced over, trying to stand in front of Chen Nong.
The other two wild dogs also launched an attack.
Chen Nong shouted in terror, "No!"
Just then, an arrow suddenly shot out and hit the bandit who had almost hit the wild dog, killing him instantly. The other two wild dogs also rushed towards the other two bandits.
Bai Yu shouted, "Chen Nong! Chen Nong!"
Chen Nong had been holding on, and now that he had finally breathed a sigh of relief, he fainted.
Before he fainted, he vaguely heard Bai Yu's voice, but he thought it was just a hallucination. Why would Bai Yu come out looking for someone at this time?
He hadn't misheard; Bai Yu had indeed come to save him.
Bai Yu's appearance to look for someone surprised everyone.
At that time, when Bai Yu's father was sent by his grandfather to go out with the Chen family to look for people, Bai Yu was also struggling internally.
After the Chen family went out to look for people, Bai Yu finally made up his mind. He ran to his grandfather and said that he also wanted to go out to look for people.
Before his grandfather could even speak, his grandmother shouted, "You're not allowed to go! Your father has already gone to find someone. If you go out, you'll be asking for my life!"
Bai Yu knelt down immediately and pleaded, "Grandma, I'm sorry, I have to go. I will make sure I'm safe."
Then he said to his grandfather, "Grandpa, please let me go!"
The village chief remained silent and did not speak.
After a while, the village chief sighed and said with relief, "Bai Yu, you've grown up!"
"Go, do what you want to do!"
Bai Yu was his most beloved child and his pride. He had raised Bai Yu from a young age and had strong moral values and good character.
Although he understood Bai Yu's thoughts and agreed with them, he was reluctant to let go, but the fledgling eagle must eventually learn to fly freely.
After obtaining his grandfather's permission, Bai Yu began to organize a team to search for Chen Nong.
What's even more surprising is that Bai Yu organizes the children to search for people. In Anping Village, Bai Yu is a role model for others to learn from.
As the only scholar in Anping Village, Bai Yu was a source of pride for the villagers. The children were often lectured by the adults that Bai Yu was a scholar, unlike them, and that he would become a high-ranking official in the future.
So as soon as Bai Yu spoke, the village children couldn't sit still and wanted to follow him out to find someone, and the adults at home couldn't stop them.
