Li Tingyun was almost stumped by the question, but luckily she had her 'master' to back her up. She said calmly, "My master said that she spent a long time in the south when she was young."
"So that's how it is!" Xu Erhua said.
After lunch, they went to another forest. It was almost three o'clock when they came down the mountain with their backpacks.
The people in the woods looked at the backs of the three people, frowning and thinking about something.
"What? Do you know those people?" asked another man next to him.
"I don't know him, but we can't stay in this forest anymore. It will be troublesome if we are discovered by the villagers down the mountain." The man came to his senses and walked deeper into the forest.
"Okay!" The two people who followed responded, and the three of them left the forest together.
When they were halfway there, Gu Xingwu secretly looked back. Fortunately, those people did not follow him down the mountain, otherwise Li Tingyun and the others would have been implicated.
Li Tingyun noticed that Gu Xingwu looked back, but did nothing. Instead, he quickened his pace and walked home.
After returning home, Li Tingyun asked Gu Xingwu to have a good rest at home, and they went to the construction site with two baskets of medicine on their backs.
Seeing that they were the only ones coming, Mr. Tang asked with concern, "Where's that kid?"
"If he got hurt accidentally, let him go back." Li Tingyun took off the backpack while speaking.
Xu Erhua put down the backpack and got two winnowing baskets. The two of them separated the medicines without stopping, then washed them by the river and came back to help boil the medicine.
As the process went on, it gradually got dark, and by the time they finished their work and went home, it was eight o'clock in the evening.
There’s no way. Today seems to be the peak day. There are a lot more sick people than yesterday. Fortunately, we dug a lot of medicinal herbs today, otherwise it would be another day where there wouldn’t be enough to share.
I definitely can’t go back to the place I went today tomorrow. I also wonder if there are any medicinal herbs in the forest opposite the construction site?
However, if you go up these mountains, you won't be able to hunt or smuggle goods. If that doesn't work, you'll have to go further away.
When they got home, the food was already cooked, which surprised them.
"You can cook too!" Xu Erhua was quite surprised.
The first time I met Gu Xingwu, although we were in the ward, he felt like a young master. I didn’t expect that he could cook.
What is cooked in the pot is bamboo shoots braised with meat. There is not much meat, but it is very fragrant and the smell makes people very hungry.
whee!
Gu Xingwu smiled foolishly and poured warm water for the two of them to wash their hands.
Li Tingyun and Xu Erhua both looked expectant. After washing their hands, they were stuffed with bowls and chopsticks. They picked up some food and put it into their mouths to eat.
"It tastes pretty good. I didn't expect you to have this skill. It will save us a lot of trouble in the future." Li Tingyun happily started eating with big mouthfuls.
whee!
Gu Xingwu smiled foolishly again, lowered his head embarrassedly and started eating.
"Tingyun, I always feel that the place we went to today is a bit strange." Xu Erhua said belatedly.
Li Tingyun was stunned for a moment, then looked up and said, "The forest there is too dense, and there may be large wild animals. After this busy period, find time to let He Fei and Uncle He go there together."
Seeing that Li Tingyun’s excuse was appropriate, Gu Xingwu lowered his head and continued eating.
oh oh!
Xu Erhua nodded as she listened.
After dinner, the two took a shower and went back to their rooms.
At midnight, Gu Xingwu gently knocked on the door of Li Tingyun's room.
Li Tingyun guessed that Gu Xingwu would definitely come. She yawned, put on her clothes, and opened the door.
Gu Xingwu entered the house, closed the door, and whispered, "I suspect the fish that escaped last time is still in the mountains. We might have run into them today."
"You may be overthinking it. He might just be a hunter in the mountains who is afraid of being seen." Li Tingyun was worried that Gu Xingwu would be too anxious and his body would not be able to bear it.
Gu Xingwu said firmly, "I'm sure they weren't hunters. They followed us for some distance."
Hearing this, Li Tingyun fell silent.
When Gu Xingwu thought about those things, his head really started to hurt again. The severe pain made him squat down with his hands covering his head.
"Be obedient and don't think about it. Even if you run into them, they're strangers. As long as you don't expose yourself, you'll be fine.
Next time we go up the mountain, let He Fei carry the hunting rifle. That way, at least they won't get close to the nearby mountains." Li Tingyun pulled Gu Xingwu's hand away and helped him sit on the bed.
Gu Xingwu shook his head vigorously. He felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to do something, wanted to say something, but he found that his vision was a little dazed.
Seeing this, Li Tingyun knocked the man unconscious and took him to the space.
While he was having an attack, she began to give him a thorough examination, and afterward, she tried to dispel the blood stasis with a silver needle.
About two hours later, Gu Xingwu's body moved. He slowly opened his eyes, but found that he was blindfolded.
She brought him to this place again. There was a strong smell of disinfectant in this place. It was a hospital.
However, there was no way there was a hospital in the village, and she really had a lot of secrets.
And, strangely enough, he could hear her thoughts and knew she was afraid of the secret being exposed.
She was willing to bring him into such a mysterious place, which was also a kind of trust.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips.
Li Tingyun had just taken off the instrument, and when he saw the smile on Gu Xingwu's face, he was so scared that he almost smashed the instrument in his hand.
【Is he awake? 】
[This has been discovered, so what should I say? ]
She came to her senses and carefully placed the things on the bed next to her, then pulled him back to the outer room. She then untied the cloth from his eyes and found him smiling with his eyes closed.
That was close!
I almost got caught, luckily I could hear her voice, otherwise I would have been exposed.
After laughing, Gu Xingwu turned over and started talking in his sleep.
call……
Li Tingyun saw him talking in his sleep and let out a long breath.
After calming down and opening the door, she carried the person back to the room in one breath, then came back and closed the door. Then she went to the space to clean up the ward.
"Host, when will you go shopping again?" the stuttering dog asked weakly.
Li Tingyun almost forgot about the stuttering dog. After thinking for a while, he said, "You haven't seen how long I haven't made any money. I've been running around on the construction site and in the mountains every day. I guess I'll have to wait until after the New Year to make any money."
The stuttering dog was helpless. The motorcycle did not consume much fuel, and there were people around the host every day, so it was not easy to steal food. She really had no need to spend money.
"Go to bed. I can hardly keep my eyes open." Li Tingyun said, then fell down and fell asleep.
The stuttering dog saw that its host was indeed very tired recently, and after hearing the host's snoring, it could only go to bed early and dream early.
Near dawn, Heifeng suddenly started yelling anxiously.
When Heifeng called out, Egg Yolk followed suit.
Gu Xingwu and Li Tingyun were sleeping soundly, and Xu Erhua came out with her clothes draped over her.
