Chapter 173 "Being Eaten"



Everyone followed Da Huang and walked over. They walked slowly, carefully pushing aside the weeds on the ground and approaching step by step...

Gu Chenghuai thought of something and didn't follow.

What was he going to do, with his little son in his arms? If it was really as he thought, the scene would be unbearable for ordinary adults, let alone children?

Meng Jiusi did not go forward to join in the fun. His eyes were glued to Qian Bao's round and cute face, and the admiration in his eyes was about to overflow.

This delicate and graceful little guy is his blood-related nephew!

"Can I take your pulse?" Doctor Meng suppressed his excitement and tried to soften his voice.

Gu Chenghuai was thinking the same thing, "Please trouble Fourth Brother."

"It's no big deal. It's just a piece of cake." Meng Jiusi waved his hand nonchalantly, his fingers lightly resting on his nephew's soft wrist.

So soft and well behaved... He didn’t cry or make a fuss even after being so frightened. He is such a worry-free child.

Meng Jiusi's eyes were gentle, and his heart was filled with something.

The little guy didn't avoid him, but felt close to him. He looked at him with his bright black eyes, an innocent and curious expression.

Meng Jiusi concentrated on feeling the pulse under his fingers, raised his eyebrows slightly, and was a little surprised. "The pulse is stable, nothing serious, watch it tonight, be careful of fever, nothing else is wrong."

It's strange that a child of this age was not frightened after experiencing such a dangerous situation.

Just at this moment.

Not far away, behind a pile of weeds that had been pulled aside, there suddenly erupted a few distorted screams of terror, mixed with heart-wrenching retching sounds.

“Oh my god! This… this…”

“What the hell—!!!”

“Ugh… Ugh! Oh my god!”

The bloody and messy scene suddenly and unobstructedly crashed into everyone's field of vision.

——A human figure that was bitten and tattered, almost unrecognizable... especially the abdomen that was violently torn open...

The scene is not only shocking, it is bloody and terrifying!

Someone's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and he rushed to the nearby tree, hugged the trunk and vomited loudly.

Some people gasped in horror and staggered back.

Someone cursed in a low voice and turned away, unable to bear the sight...

Gu Yuanshan happened to be squeezed in the front, and the moment he saw this scene, the blood color faded away completely.

His stomach churned and he took several steps back, not daring to glance in that direction again.

Then, the intestines... and... ugh!

Zhang Yongqiang was even worse off. He was walking in the front, and the bloody and horrifying scene hit his eyes directly without any buffer.

The strong visual impact and the boiling fishy smell caused this burly man to suffer an unprecedented critical blow.

(??w???‖)?

After a brief silence, a howl broke the silence.

"Wife!" Zhang Manyue's husband shouted in shock. He looked at his wife's body, which was no longer in human form, with tears and snot streaming down his face. "Why are you so depressed? If you don't have a baby, then you don't have a baby. I don't dislike you..."

He didn't dare to go forward, and stood trembling a few steps away, howling sincerely and at the top of his lungs, as if his parents had died.

"I know you're not the one who stole the child. Who on earth instigated you to do such a foolish thing? Wife, you died miserably... Wife, at worst we can just split up, why do you have to be so whining..."

Villagers: “…”

Everyone exchanged looks of contempt and understanding.

You say you don't mind, but when your mother beats and scolds your wife, you should at least stop her and protect her.

Zhang Manyue's suicide has a lot to do with this cowardly husband!

No one present was interested in this hypocritical and cowardly man.

The dead are gone, and we can't just leave them in the mountains. Zhang Yongqiang endured the discomfort and asked everyone to cut branches and long grass to make a straw stretcher.

Although everyone was still in shock, they worked quickly, working in pairs to find materials and those with skills quickly made a stretcher. Because Zhang Manyue was too fragile, the craftsmen present also hurriedly made thin straw curtains to cover her, trying to cover up the horrific scene that could scare children to tears.

The brave man took a few deep breaths, put his hands together and bowed to the straw stretcher. He mustered up his courage, held his breath, and tried together to put Zhang Manyue's broken body onto the stretcher. The sticky touch when he touched it made the man carrying the body shudder.

Damn, I’ve never collected such a “broken” body.

Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless you and allow you to be born into a good life in the next life.

A group of people carried a stretcher covered with straw mats down the mountain in a heavy and strange atmosphere.

The man in front was carrying a stretcher with the corpse, and the man behind was carrying the wolf's corpse. Yes, the goose plucked its feathers, and even the wolf's corpse was not forgotten.

A person died, and was eaten by wolves. The people in the team felt disgusted and naturally would not eat the wolf meat. However, the wolf skin can be used to make knee pads and gloves.

There were many people going up the mountain, and the noise was loud. The wild animals were startled and ran back into the mountain.

The journey was smooth and there were no more setbacks.

Lin Zhao came over upon hearing the voice, and from afar, she saw the fair-skinned little person in Gu Chenghuai's arms. She stopped suddenly, supported her knees with her hands, gasped, her chest heaving violently, her long black hair was disheveled, there was a thin layer of sweat on her face, and the hair on her forehead was slightly wet.

The next second, the corners of her mouth rose, but tears rolled down first.

Crying with joy.

Lin Zhao walked quickly forward, her eyes wandering over her son. She touched his little hands and then his little feet, as if to make sure every inch of him was intact.

Suddenly, he stepped forward and hugged his son and Gu Chenghuai tightly. He smelled the unique milky scent of the child, and his tense nerves and anxious heart were relieved one by one.

"... Qian Bao."

Before long, her voice became hoarse, completely different from her usual clear and pleasant voice.

The moment Qianbao's mother came over, he seemed to be filled with countless grievances. He hugged Lin Zhao's head with his chubby little hands, and he hugged her so tightly that his little face turned red.

When he heard his mother calling his name, he seemed to have finally confirmed his sense of security. He was stunned for a moment, his little mouth pouted, and he raised his delicate little face and burst into tears.

“Wow…Mom, wuwuwu…wuwuwawa…”

The sound was so piercing that it startled the birds in the trees and made them flap their wings and flee.

Since he was born, he had rarely cried so aggrieved and loudly, as if he wanted to cry out all his grievances and fears.

Lin Zhao felt so distressed that she quickly held the baby in her arms, patted his back gently, and coaxed him with soft words.

The exposed fair and tender skin of the child was covered with many big red spots from being bitten by the poisonous mosquitoes in the mountains. There were bites on his lotus-like arms, neck, and fleshy chin... He looked so pitiful.

"Mom is here, mom is here, don't be afraid, dear, it's all over..." She kept comforting him, "Mom will take Qianbao home."

Qian Bao sobbed, still holding her tightly, and nodded his little head, "Yes! Go home!"

Lin Zhao comforted the child, then looked back and saw the wolf carried by the villagers. She felt a surge of fear in her heart and tightened her arms around Qian Bao slightly.

Gu Chenghuai stretched out his fingertips to wipe away the tears on Qianbao's face, thankfully and proudly saying, "Da Huang protected Qianbao, he's fine. He didn't even cry when he was hiding in the wolf pack before. What a calm and steady man, Father Xiao."

He lowered his head and looked at his son with a slight smile on his face, "You are worthy of being my son."

Qianbao understood and even stopped crying.

Seeing his father descend from the sky in times of crisis, this sense of security is engraved in his heart. Now the little boy is close to and trusts his father, stretching out his little hand like a bamboo shoot tip, grabbing one of his fingers and holding it tightly.

Lin Zhao kissed her son's bulging baby fat with a gentle look in her eyes.

She looked at Da Huang who was squatting next to her, and reached out to touch the little hero's head, "Da Huang, you'll get the first prize today. I'll make you meat tonight, and you can eat as much as you want."

Da Huang was so excited that his tail turned into a propeller, "Woof woof woof..."

He was so happy that he took the lead.

Lin Zhao glanced at the strange stretcher at the end with a cold and indifferent look.

People who break into the mountains go in vertically and come out horizontally. What's so strange about that?

Zhang Manyue should be thankful that she came out lying down, otherwise she would have slapped her face to pieces!

"Comrade Lin, let's go down the mountain first. Children have delicate skin, and the bites need to be treated with medicine as soon as possible." Meng Jiusi stepped forward and spoke in a serious tone. His expression was serious, and his whole body seemed to be emitting a holy white light.

Lin Zhao's anger was like a ball punctured by a needle: "..."

"...Thank you." She thanked with a distant look on her face and walked up and down with Qianbao in her arms.

After walking a short distance, he stopped and winked at Gu Chenghuai, "There is a silly roe deer and a lame chicken under the tree. Take them and go home to make chicken soup for Qianbao and Alan."

He came to her door on his own initiative, and was tied up by her!

As soon as he finished speaking, Qianbao's little belly made a gurgling sound and he covered his belly with his short hands in panic. The little baby who was not as tall as an adult's knee also had to save face.

Lin Zhao rubbed her baby son's face and said, "Why be shy if you're hungry? I'll make you some smooth egg custard when we get home. I'll make three of them so Qianbao can eat his fill."

"Yeah." Qianbao nodded vigorously, and crystal saliva unconsciously seeped out of the corners of his mouth.

He was really hungry.

Normally, he would have drunk his milk by now!

Gu Chenghuai saw the stupid roe deer and the lame chicken tied up tightly under the tree, and he walked out with his long legs and followed his wife and children.

Looking at this scene, Meng Jiusi couldn't help but smile. Is this considered a tacit understanding? Don't go up the mountain empty-handed.

The brave man who went into the mountain to look for someone came down, and there were many people waiting at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing Qianbao's figure, kind-hearted people couldn't help but feel happy for the Gu family.

"The Gu family's Qianbao has been found—"

"Oh! Qian Bao is so lucky, he is a blessed man!"

"Dahuang is here too. He is a loyal dog. Yubao's mother, you made the right decision to raise this dog." Wang Chunhua was worried about Qianbao and couldn't stay at home so she came to the foot of the mountain to wait for him. She was so happy to see that the child was fine. She was also the first witness to see Dahuang go into the mountain. She didn't know the reason at that time but found out later.

...Da Huang is going to chase Qian Bao.

Lin Zhao did not deny Da Huang's contribution. "It was not in vain. Da Huang is indeed the descendant of a heroic dog. He can even outwit wolves."

Generally speaking, dogs cannot beat wolves. Da Huang was able to protect Qian Bao from being attacked by wolves, and the "advanced" dog food he ate played a big role. He could slap a wolf away with one claw, so there is no need to elaborate on how strong he is.

In addition, this pack of wolves failed in the battle for territory and had to look for another place to live. Many members died on the way and they were unable to hunt much food. They became skinny, hungry and weak, and of course they could not defeat the fierce and strong Rhubarb.

Lin Zhao was unaware of the following.

In the shadow of the earth wall, Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai hid carefully and stuck half of their heads out to peek.

Seeing the smile on their aunt's face, the brothers' frowned brows relaxed.

Xiaobai shook his brother's hand, and said happily in his baby voice, "Brother, Qianbao has been found."

Jing Mo was also very worried about his little cousin, so he had been waiting here for a long time, looking at the child in his aunt's arms, trying hard to remember his face.

"Yeah." He whispered back, breathing a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you found it."

"Brother, what's in my uncle's hand?" Xiaobai suddenly asked.

Jing Mo looked over: "Rabbit..."

He didn't recognize the other two.

Xiaobai's eyes sparkled, "It's white, so pretty."

Then he saw Meng Jiusi and immediately forgot about the pretty rabbit. "It's Dad! Dad is there! Brother, can I come over?"

Jing Mo knew that their identities were awkward and it was not good for them to "show up in public", so he patted his brother's head and patiently coaxed him, "Don't go, let's go back first, brother will get you some candy, okay?"

Xiao Bai was disappointed, but still said, "Okay."

The two brothers went home holding hands.

Gu Xing'er was also hiding in the corner. She glanced at the bloody stretcher, her eyes paused slightly, and without staying any longer, she left the place quietly.

What Qianbao found soon spread throughout the village.

Mother Gu ran out of the house quickly, and when she saw her little grandson from afar, she burst into tears of joy and rushed forward to hug Qianbao.

"Qianbao! Damn Qianbao, you scared me. That bastard from the Li family, if he wants to die, he might as well jump into the river, jump off a cliff, or drink poison...whatever he does, why would he steal someone else's child? He will go to hell when he dies!" she said hatefully.

Gu Yuanshan wanted to vomit again, "Mom, Li's daughter-in-law is dead..."

Mother Gu was stunned, "Why is it gone?"

"The wolves ate it. The wolves wanted to take Qianbao away, but were swatted away by Dahuang. Today Dahuang has made the greatest contribution!" said Gu Yuanshan. He liked Dahuang before, and he liked him even more after this incident. He wanted to kowtow to it.

"Did you meet a wolf?" Gu's mother raised her voice several times, her face full of fear, "May God bless you! May our ancestors bless you!"

He reached out and stroked Qianbao's head, stroking it again and again, "Don't be afraid... We are back in the village, don't be afraid..."

A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. How could a little kid like Qianbao know what fear is? He was well protected by Dahuang, and the confrontation didn't last long... His father came with a gun, and the little boy felt safe. At this time, he had returned to his usual calm and well-behaved self.

"Mother, baby is hungry~" A little baby voice sounded, shouting that it was hungry.

This sentence interrupted Mother Gu's emotions. The person who had been crying so hard that she could not stand before now walked home with her grandson in her arms. Her steps were like the wind, and in just a few breaths, she left everyone behind.

"Grandma, grandma, put Qianbao down. I want to hug my little brother too." Hengbao chased after her, his voice excited, and he had regained his usual energy.

Lin Zhao was very pleased.

That's better.

Gu Chenghuai stroked Lin Zhao's sweaty hair with his slender and powerful hands, and said distressedly, "Go back and wash them. I'll take care of the children, nothing will happen to them."

Only then did Lin Zhao feel sore and sticky all over. She gave Gu Chenghuai a few instructions and walked towards her new home.

Halfway through the journey, I remembered that I had forgotten to tell my fourth brother that my third brother had recovered and that the new drug trial had been successful...

She held her forehead and looked up to see the orange sunset in the western sky. The sky was full of rosy clouds. This day had been... so long.

Did Sanzai survive the robbery?

Lin Zhao wasn't sure.

In the original book, Sanzai was kidnapped in the village two years later. The kidnapper was a middle-aged woman with a black mole between her eyebrows.

She had a feeling that she would meet that person sooner or later.

If she really encounters this, she will definitely... send this person to prison and make her die at any cost!
