Chapter 28 Meeting a Blind Bear
Dinner in the evening was stewed radish in bone soup, plus a big meat bun for each person.
Both the brother and sister were very satisfied with the meal.
Ergouzi from next door was so greedy by the aroma of the bone soup that he cried. Liu Chan didn't dare to scold him loudly, but just recited it softly in her throat like chanting a sutra.
Her husband ignored her and sat aside, eating with his head down. Her daughters did not dare to offend Liu Chan and quietly did their own things.
He was very careful when walking and talking, for fear of making Liu Chan unhappy and getting beaten.
If you have food at home, you won't be worried.
After two days of rest, Bai Yangfan planned to go back into the mountains. After all, she was going to live in Kyoto with her brother, so she had to save enough money. It would not be so easy to get money in Kyoto.
I was unfamiliar with the place and had to take care of my younger brother, so I had to be extra careful in everything I did.
The younger brother is the only responsibility left to the original owner by her grandmother. The original owner promised her grandmother that she would raise her younger brother, send him to school, and help him start a family and have children.
What the original owner agreed to was equivalent to what she agreed to, because she occupied the original owner's body.
Although she had 550 yuan from selling the wild boar in her space, she still had to live in Liujia Village for almost two years, so this amount of money was not enough for her to spend.
In her previous life, she had no concept of money. If she wanted to save, she would save a little, and if she didn't, she would spend it all. If she hadn't obtained that piece of top-grade red jadeite, she wouldn't have thought of opening a safe deposit box at the bank.
Strangely enough, ever since she opened the safe, she started saving money consciously. She never looked carefully at how much she had saved. She just knew that she had a card in her hand with a number on it.
I never cared about the specific number.
Now that I think about it, this result is pretty good. If I didn’t know how much money I had, I wouldn’t feel that much regret.
This world is different now. She has a younger brother to support, and she still has to earn the money she needs. She has to find a way to get what she wants from the mountains.
No matter if it was medicinal herbs or anything else, as long as it could be sold for money, she would find a way to get it.
Only after saving enough money can you have the confidence to leave Liujia Village.
In the morning, he cooked a pot of rice, made scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a pot of bone soup. After the siblings finished eating, Bai Yangfan told his younger brother.
"I'm going up the mountain today and will be back late. Heat up your lunch for yourself at noon. If I come back late at night, don't wait for me. Make some porridge for yourself. Got it?"
Bai Qihang nodded obediently: "Got it."
His sister was going up the mountain, so he had to stay at home and look after the house. There were delicious foods at home, and he couldn't let Ergou steal them.
She prepared the tools for going out, put the food in the pot into a bowl, and put it into the space when her brother was not paying attention. This was her lunch, she had to take it with her and take it out to fill her stomach when she was hungry.
This time when he went to the mountains, Bai Yangfan planned to go deep into the mountains. A wild boar could be sold for more than 500 yuan. If he could get a few more, he would need to prepare about 3,000 yuan, which would be enough for the trip to Kyoto.
If you are lucky enough to come across some other large animal, you can sell it for more money.
Lu Jingheng was keeping a close eye on her. When he saw her walking up the mountain with a basket on her back, he followed her quietly. He always felt that this woman was very lucky and that he might gain something by following her.
Bai Yangfan walked leisurely into the mountains alone, not noticing the person behind him.
Even if she noticed it, she wouldn't find it strange. Lu Jingheng came to Liujia Village to go to the mountains. If he didn't follow her, he would follow someone else, or he would go into the mountains alone.
Bai Yangfan picked up a lot of herbs along the way. These were also valuable treasures. When she and her brother were about to leave, they could use them to treat any headaches or fevers they encountered.
While collecting herbs and heading deep into the mountains, two birds flew overhead, chirping non-stop. Bai Yangfan stopped what he was doing and listened carefully to the birds' calls.
Seeing her suddenly stop, as if an old monk in meditation, Lu Jingheng felt very strange and couldn't understand what this woman was doing.
As soon as he looked at the surrounding environment, Lu Jingheng knew that they had entered the deep mountains where few people had been.
This woman is really brave. Most people in Liujia Village just look for herbs and wild game on the outskirts of the mountain, but she goes straight into the depths of the mountains without worrying about encountering blind bears.
Just as they were thinking about it, they heard the sound of firewood being crushed in front of them, and a big black bear really appeared in front of them. However, it was a bit far away, at least about a hundred meters away.
But even so, Lu Jingheng was scared out of his wits. If he was alone, it wouldn't be difficult for him to escape, but with Bai Yangfan around, it wouldn't be so easy.
Without caring about the risk of being scolded by the woman, Lu Jingheng quickly rushed to Bai Yangfan, grabbed her hand and was about to run.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and leave, or you'll be dead if that stupid black bear slaps you." Lu Jingheng was really anxious and didn't care about anything else. Seeing that Bai Yangfan was indifferent, he planned to carry her on his back and escape.
No matter what, he couldn't just watch this woman being beaten to death by that blind bear.
"Are you so scared that your legs are weak and you can't walk? Come, I'll carry you. It's my fault for being such a jinx. I just said don't run into a blind bear, but I didn't expect you to actually run into one."
The man squatted down and motioned Bai Yangfan to climb up, but she pushed him away: "You bastard! Haven't you taken advantage of me enough? Whose legs are weak? Who wants you to carry them? Get out of the way."
Lu Jingheng: “…” I’m not angry, I’m not angry. This woman probably has never seen the power of a blind bear in her life.
"Comrade Bai Yangfan! I didn't mean to take advantage of you. I was just afraid it would be too late and we wouldn't be able to escape. If you can walk, then do it quickly. Why are you still standing there? That blind bear will be charging at us soon."
Glancing at the big black bear, Bai Yangfan didn't care at all: "Just charge at me, I'm not afraid, so why should you be afraid?"
Lu Jingheng: “…” Auntie! You’re not even afraid of a blind bear? I respect you as a man.
"If it charges at you, you'll be dead. That beast doesn't recognize humans, it will attack you." Lu Jingheng felt like he was going crazy, discussing such an idiotic topic with a crazy woman. "And then you will die, do you understand?"
She glanced at the dog man in front of her with sarcasm: "If you are afraid that you will leave by yourself, I will definitely not die, but I can't guarantee whether you will die or not."
"What do you mean?" Lu Jingheng heard something unusual in Bai Yangfan's tone. "Please explain clearly what you just said."
Not bothering to pay attention to this bastard, Bai Yangfan picked up the backpack and walked towards the big black bear, which made Lu Jingheng's eyes widen to the limit.
What was this woman trying to do? To die?
Oh my God! Bai Yangfan is really crazy. She can't be so smart as to think that blind bears are as easy to kill as wild boars!
