Junjun was also very unhappy. She hugged her grandfather's neck and turned her head away from her heartless parents.
Si Cheng and Yun Qi held hands tightly as they walked home, talking as they went.
"Brother Cheng, how could you go and fight a lone wolf all by yourself? What if you get bitten? Do you know how nervous I was when they were talking about it?" As he said this, Yun Qi pinched his arm hard with his other hand.
"I've fought wolves before, and besides, that wolf was skinny and weak from hunger, so I took it down in no time."
"No matter what, we can't joke around with ourselves." Yunqi could imagine how tense the situation was at the time.
"The situation was quite urgent at the time. If it had called its companions, who knows how many more people would have been injured there. Under those circumstances, we had to finish the job quickly."
Back home, he was lectured by his parents again, and they only let him off the hook after he promised not to do it again.
While he went to wash up, Yunqi also carried the two little ones and took out the food he had prepared earlier from his space. Ever since Junjun and Lele started talking, Yunqi stopped performing magic tricks in front of them, for fear that they might accidentally tell others and cause unnecessary trouble.
After finishing their meal, seeing that it was almost time, the family headed towards the square.
Several chefs were already skinning and bone-shaving the wolves in the square.
The village decided to give the wolf pelt to Sicheng, while the rest of the wolf meat and bones were prepared at the village entrance, and anyone over 50 years old could collect a portion.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go over the following notices." Yun Mingwu held up a piece of paper and read out the agreed-upon regulations one by one.
"First, from now on, the entire village is under lockdown, so no one is allowed to go out. No outsiders are allowed to enter either. Second, no raw or cold food is permitted, and all water must be boiled before drinking. Third, starting tomorrow, we will take turns checking the water source for cleanliness and hygiene. Fourth, starting tomorrow, everyone who doesn't have any scheduled activities for the day must go to the square to learn basic combat skills. Everyone residing in Pinghe Village must abide by these rules. Anyone found violating them will be expelled from Pinghe Village."
After hearing the village chief's conditions, they all seemed acceptable; it just meant staying in the village.
After seeing that the village chief had finished speaking, Si Cheng went over and told the old men about his own concerns.
"We don't know if any of the animals that were previously on the mountain are still alive. If they are dead and rotting, and then eaten by other animals, it could cause a plague. It's necessary to go up the mountain to check."
Hearing Si Cheng say these things, they realized that they had overlooked such an important matter. Yes, if this area was not thoroughly checked, it would still cause collateral damage.
On the spot, dozens of people were selected to conduct a thorough search of the mountain the next day, and they could also check for any traces of wild animals.
When the couple went to bed to rest that night, Yunqi asked her husband, "This kind of epidemic also happened in my past life, but it wasn't fatal. You just need to take some herbs to clear the heat and get rid of diarrhea. Why do we have to go to such lengths? Patrolling the mountains and sealing off the villages."
Si Cheng stroked her head: "Silly girl, nothing in this world is absolute. You have to be prepared for everything. Prevention is always the best policy. At that time, we were struggling in a province thousands of miles away. We really didn't know the specific situation here. So, Brother Cheng, you have to look at things with old eyes."
"There's a reason for patrolling the mountains this time. Now that we've found wolves, it means there must be a pack here. We need to check the terrain all over the mountain again to see if we can protect this area. That way, our village will be safer. You haven't seen the killing power of a large wolf pack. A village like ours is no match for them. The houses are too scattered, and we can't defend ourselves properly. We can only go up the mountain to think of a solution." Si Cheng likes to nip all unknown dangers in the bud, rather than dealing with them in a panic later.
"Then you must be careful when you go up the mountain tomorrow. A few days ago, someone found a snake in the field. It must have been starving after hibernating for so long, so you have to be extra careful." After saying that, he seemed to remember something and flashed into his spatial dimension. He came out a little while later, carrying a large bag.
"Qibao, next time you do something like this to me, could you please tell me first? My heart is pretty strong, but it can't take this kind of stimulation too often."
"Honey, be more careful next time. Look what I found." After saying that, she poured everything out of the bag onto the bed. "Look, these are military boots. I ordered a batch from Germany, and the quality is top-notch. And these combat uniforms, I ordered several sets from several countries at high prices because I'm a military enthusiast. They're all made to fit your size, so try them on quickly. With these, you'll have some protection against reptiles in the mountains."
Si Cheng looked at the equipment in front of him and was very fond of it. "Using this equipment to patrol the mountain is simply a waste of resources."
"How could that be? As long as they can guarantee your safety, then they are worth the money. Why worry about these things?"
"My wife sees things clearly. I'll wear the whole outfit out tomorrow. Monkey and the others will definitely be green with envy."
"I don't know if they're envious, but the single guys in the village will probably be envious for a while," Yunqi said, then laughed to himself.
"Aren't there always so many single guys in the village? What's there to be envious of?"
She was speechless looking at her husband. Just how indifferent was he to what was going on around him?
“Since the weather warmed up, all the older women in the village have been worrying about the marriages of the younger generation. They were planning to take them around to find partners after you came back, but now that this has happened, it has to be postponed indefinitely.”
Si Cheng became interested as well. "Monkey and the others are still single. If all else fails, they can find partners domestically. You can keep an eye out for them and introduce them to suitable people. It's good to keep the good stuff in the family."
"That's right, how come I didn't think of that? I'll talk to my mom about it tomorrow and ask her to keep an eye out. My mom has a good eye for people." Yunqi realized at this moment that there were actually some people in the village who could be matched.
"Speaking of which, I seem to have seen quite a few young wives with big bellies today. How will they give birth?"
Yun Qi pinched his waist. "Alright, now you're going to look at young wives. Watch out for my Nine Yin White Bone Claw."
"They were so obviously loitering in the square that everyone was carefully avoiding them; it was hard not to see them."
