Chapter 229 Chapter 228: Escape from the Battlefield
The few people never dreamed that they would encounter a black bear halfway up the mountain. They didn't even realize that the dry food in their mouths fell to the ground.
Before the few people could react, the big black bear opened its iron fan-like claws, instantly knocked Cai Lin, who was closest to it, to the ground, and opened its bloody mouth to bite him.
The smaller one rushed forward with its claws and fangs bared, grabbed the urea bag next to it and started biting it.
"Ah~Brother!" Cai Lin let out a shrill scream and fumbled around on the ground with his hands, trying to pick up the machete he had just placed aside.
"Black bear~" He Dakuan and the other two were so scared that they pissed and shit themselves, and ran down the mountain tumbling.
"Second sister, shoot!" Seeing his brother being knocked down, Cai Jun raised his machete and rushed forward, "Get out, get out, I'll kill you..."
Cai Ermei reacted and quickly raised her gun to shoot at the big black bear that was holding Cai Lin. While reloading the bullet, she shouted to He Dakuan and others who were running down the mountain, "Come and help quickly."
The big black bear was shot and turned around and ran away. The little bear heard the gunshot and ran away with the urea bag in its mouth.
He Dakuan and his two companions slowed down when they heard the gunshots. They turned around and saw two black bears rushing into the forest.
The three of them looked at each other, thought of the honey, and turned back.
Cai Jun looked at Cai Lin's bloody shoulder and face, gasped, and hurriedly helped him up, "Xiao Lin, wake up, wake up."
Cai Lin opened his eyes and looked at him, opened his mouth which was covered in blood, but fainted without saying a word.
“Cai Lin, Cai Lin.” Cai Jun called out twice, and quickly squatted down and shouted to the pale-faced Cai Ermei, “Help him quickly, I’ll carry him down the mountain to find a doctor.”
"Oh!" Cai Ermei hurriedly stepped forward and helped Cai Lin onto his back. Cai Jun stood up and ran down the mountain. He hurriedly put the urea bag into the backpack, put it on his shoulder and chased after him.
When He Dakuan and the other two saw Cai Jun rushing down with Cai Lin on his back, they came forward with red faces and asked, "Is Cai Lin okay?"
"Huff...Huff..." Cai Jun didn't even look at them, and ran away panting with Cai Lin on his back.
Cai Ermei looked at them with a dark face and said, "You are too disloyal. I must be blind to ask you to go into the mountains together!"
He Dakuan and the others looked at each other, then followed with red faces.
Cai Jun ran for a while carrying Cai Lin on his back, but he was too tired to run any further. He turned to look at He Dakuan and the others and said, "Come and help carry him for a while."
"Yes!" An uncle of the Xu family hurried forward and took Cai Lin.
Cai Jun looked at his unconscious brother, then looked at Yami who was carried by Cai Ermei, and seemed to be thinking about something.
Next, several people took turns carrying Cai Lin down the mountain. When they reached the chinaberry tree, the sun had already set.
Cai Jun took over the backpack from Cai Ermei and said, "Ermei, I can't run anymore. Hurry down the mountain and call for a tractor from Fangtian Brigade. We will take Cai Lin to Ning'an when we get down the mountain."
Cai Ermei nodded and ran down the mountain with heavy steps.

After Zhou Huaian and Yang Chunyan finished cutting the Dendrobium officinale, they went down the mountain, said goodbye to Zhou Yiding, and walked down the mountain. They arrived at the backyard door when it was almost dark.
The gate was wide open, and Zhou's mother and Zhao Huifang were collecting herbs in the yard. "Mom, sister-in-law, we are back."
Zhou's mother and Zhao Huifang looked back and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them coming back. They said to them in fear, "You two must go down the mountain early next time. If you go down late, stay on the mountain and don't come down."
Zhao Huifang added: "Cai Ermei and her friends had just come down the mountain. We heard that Cai Lin was bitten by a black bear and was unconscious when he came down the mountain."
Yang Chunyan looked back at Zhou Huaian and thought to herself: Something has happened again.
Zhou Huaian also remembered what Yang Chunyan said, and his heart couldn't help but feel heavy, "He Dakuan borrowed bullets from me, why didn't they shoot?"
Zhou's mother glared at him and said unhappily, "Do you think guns are omnipotent? Cai Jun said that when he saw two black bears coming, He Dakuan and his men were so scared that they turned and ran away.
Cai Ermei was so scared that she was stunned. It was only after he yelled that she reacted and shot the black bear. Fortunately, the black bear ran away after being shot, otherwise all three of them would have been in trouble. When something happens, you can still rely on your own brothers. "
Zhao Huifang sighed and said, "I heard that Cai Lin's face and shoulders were bitten off. Cai Lin's family said that it was Cai Ermei who asked him to go into the mountains to find honey and asked him to pay for medical treatment. Cai Ermei said that she would sell the honey to Cai Lin to treat the wounds.
He Dakuan and his friends refused to do it, saying that they had found the honey together, and even if they wanted to treat Cai Lin's wound, they would have to use the money earned from the sale of honey by Cai Ermei and Cai Lin.
Cai Jun took the honey and refused to give it to them, saying that the money from selling the honey must first be used to treat Cai Lin's wound, and the rest would be distributed to them. When we came back, they went to find Secretary Xu to resolve the issue.
Mother Zhou brought the meal to the small dining table at the entrance of the main hall and said, "We have all eaten, you should eat quickly too. When Huairong and the others come back from the brigade, we will know how to solve the problem."
"No matter how he solves it, it's none of our business!" Zhou Huaian glanced at Yang Chunyan, "Yan'er, eat."
"Oh! You're sweaty. Let me go wipe my face."
"I'll wipe it too!" Zhou Huaian followed and said, "Don't worry, I won't go into the old forest."
"Yeah!" Yang Chunyan looked at him and nodded.
"Chunyan!" Zhao Huifang said with a smile, "I heard that Li Wu chased Zou Cuifen, the vicious wife, back to her parents' home, and sent the little one to be raised by his mother."
"Really?"
"Yes! He threw the clothes of Zou Cuifen and her daughter into the courtyard when he returned that day. I heard that Li Wu beat Zou Cuifen so hard that her eyes were black."
Zhou Huaian sneered: "Why don't you chase away such a vicious woman and keep her for the New Year?"
"that is!"
Yang Chunyan and the other person wiped their faces and sat down to eat. They had stir-fried pumpkin shreds with green peppers, cold-mixed leeks, and a bowl of sauerkraut vermicelli soup. They had only taken a few bites when Zhou Huairong and the others came back.
Zhou Jiaming and others followed behind, and when they saw Zhou Huaian, they said, "Dad, the old bear bit someone."
Zhao Huifang patted him and said, "Are you scared? Do you still want to go up the mountain in the future?"
Zhou Jiaming nodded, "I'm afraid. My face has been bitten to pieces."
Zhou Huairong walked to the table and said, "Youngest, don't go to the old forest to look for honey in the future. It would be terrible if you encounter a black bear."
Zhou Huaian swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "I understand. I won't go!"
Zhou Huaishan said: "Fortunately, Cai Jun went with us, otherwise Cai Lin would have died."
Zhou Huaijun: "As the saying goes, fathers and sons fight together in battle, and brothers fight together to kill tigers!"
Zhou Huaian nodded, "How did you solve it in the end?"
Zhou Huairong said: "I heard that a few people collected more than 100 kilograms of honey, but a black bear took away a bag, leaving 60 to 70 kilograms, which can be sold for several hundred yuan."
"Secretary Xu asked them to give the money from selling honey to Cai Lin to treat his wound first, and if there was any money left, they could give some to He Dakuan. Only then did they agree."
Yang Chunyan recalled that in her previous life, Cai Ermei took a long time to recover after being hit by a black bear’s claws. This time, Cai Lin’s face and shoulders were bitten. She didn’t know if a few hundred dollars would be enough.
Zhou Huaian glanced at her, "Where are the old man and grandpa?"
Zhou Huairong said: "The kiln is open today, and they are worried about keeping watch over there."
Zhou Huaian: "How are the bricks and tiles fired in this kiln?"
Zhou Huairong: "Kiln Master Liu said it was OK. The kiln has just been opened and the heat inside is still a bit strong. We don't know how it will burn."
