As the temperature rose, the scent emanating from Li Xi became increasingly strong, spreading for miles and refreshingly pleasant.
"What is Li Xi up to now?" Liu Shengnan kept waving her sickle.
Because Ye Zhiyu got into trouble while she was alone with the older women, Wu Wenwen and the others stayed with her today to prevent her from being deceived again. Anyway, they were doing the work anyway, and the brigade leader agreed.
In their eyes, Ye Zhiyu was too easy to fool; she clearly didn't get along with Xu Fen, yet she still followed her.
Lu Chen was also standing guard nearby, glancing up at Ye Zhiyu's position every now and then.
“Surprising.” Zhou Xue glanced at Li Xi.
Villagers kept praising Li Xi.
"Li Zhiqing, you smell so good, it gives us all more energy to work."
Li Xi was very obedient, saying, "I'm glad everyone likes it."
Some of them were even tired, so they would go to her side and smell the strong scent for a few moments before going back to work.
Liu Shengnan's mouth dropped open: "Is this really necessary?"
Ye Zhiyu smiled faintly and remained silent. Of course it was. This honey was made from a hundred flowers, and the flowers were not ordinary flowers; they belonged to the category of spiritual herbs and flowers.
A single drop has miraculous effects; of course, it can't bring the dead back to life or heal the wounded, but it does have some benefits for the body.
Therefore, they are very popular.
Ye Zhiyu glanced around absentmindedly, and when she saw the dense black spots in the distance, her smile widened.
He lowered his head and pretended not to know.
Lu Chen, who was observing closely, followed her gaze and naturally noticed it. He frowned, but he trusted Ye Zhiyu, so he didn't pay any attention to it.
By the time someone noticed, it was too late; countless bees were already swarming in.
"Bees! Bees! Run!!!"
Lu Weimin immediately organized everyone to evacuate.
Everyone scattered and fled, and Ye Zhiyu was immediately picked up by Lu Chen and carried away into the distance.
So when Liu Shengnan turned around to try and pull Ye Zhiyu away, all she could see was Lu Chen's back.
Well, with Lu Chen around, she doesn't need to worry about it.
While she was in a daze, Li Yuzhe quickly ran towards her. Seeing her standing there, he grabbed her wrist and ran away.
"Liu Shengnan, what are you doing spacing out at a time like this?! You're so stupid."
Liu Shengnan opened her mouth, but because he was worried about her, she didn't say anything.
But the fleeing group soon discovered that the bees didn't sting; they only chased—only chased Li Xi.
Li Xi's screams echoed throughout the sky above the Red Flag Brigade.
"Help! Brother Ting Shen, help me!"
Li Xi wanted to get close to Fu Tingshen so he could rescue her from her predicament, but she was covered in bees. Fu Tingshen was already scared out of his wits, let alone rescue her.
Seeing that Li Xi was about to get close, he turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
While running, he turned back to urge Li Xi to calm down, "Xiao Xi, calm down, stop first."
But Li Xi, inside the bee swarm, couldn't hear anything; she was in excruciating pain.
"Brother Ting Shen, it hurts so much, please help me."
Thus, the scene came to be: Fu Tingshen running ahead, followed by a bee-like figure.
The scene was somewhat comical.
Li Yuzhe had a sudden inspiration: "Fu Zhiqing, water, bees are afraid of water, so they run to the river."
Without saying a word, Fu Tingshen changed direction and plunged into the river.
Li Xi followed him down, and the bees dispersed, revealing Li Xi's appearance.
The sweat from their labor carried a small amount of nectar, which was washed into the river by the water.
The bees followed the river.
Li Xi collapsed into the water.
Fu Tingshen felt a little guilty and stepped forward to help her up: "Xiaoxi, how are you...???"
With a "whoosh," Fu Tingshen, as if he had seen a ghost, threw Li Xi, who was halfway up, back down.
Li Xi, who was already in pain all over from the bee stings, was now in even worse shape.
Li Xi raised that terrifying face, trying to put on a weak expression as before: "Brother Ting Shen, what are you doing? It hurts so much."
Fu Tingshen's hands were trembling, and he swallowed hard.
"Xiaoxi, your...your face."
Li Xi was puzzled. She only felt her face was a little tight, and assumed it was because of dehydration.
But as she was about to raise her hand to touch her face, her gaze fell on her swollen arm.
Her face was covered in bee stings. Trembling, she touched her face, and the sensation clearly told Li Xi that her face was in the same condition as her arms.
Looking down at the water, though blurry, I could still make out a face that looked like a pig's head.
Li Xi covered her face in despair.
"Ah~ How could this happen? My face!!!"
Fu Tingshen gritted his teeth, hugged Li Xi, and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, Xiao Xi, you'll be alright, you'll be alright, I'll take you to see a doctor."
Li Xi covered her face and wept bitterly; her face was disfigured.
Fu Tingshen picked up Li Xi and walked towards the clinic, while a group of villagers pointed and whispered among themselves.
Li Xi's face was disfigured, but she was still hearing.
"What's wrong with Li, the educated youth? Why is he covering his face?"
"Of course, she must have been stung by bees. Her body was covered in bees. Look at her hands, they were really scary."
"Tch, all she does is flaunt her beauty and put perfume on herself, trying to seduce people. This time she failed to seduce anyone, so she ended up getting herself involved instead."
Some of the young wives started to mock her, saying that they were furious because their family members had been staring at Li Xi so intently.
Well, this time they tried to steal a chicken but ended up with a handful of rice instead. Serves them right!
She wasn't the only one who thought this way; basically, everyone thought so.
Li Xi broke down, crying and shouting, "Brother Ting Shen, go quickly, go around them and leave, don't say anything more."
Lu Weimin came over and shooed people away: "Send away, send away, get back to work. What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a bee sting? Get out of here."
