Fu Xiaoyu painstakingly dug a deep pit, and fearing he might fall to his death, he threw a lot of straw into it so that it wouldn't hurt if he fell in, and he could then give him a good beating.
Thinking this way, I felt even more energetic in my movements.
Soon, a pit about one person deep took shape and was covered with tree branches.
Fu Xiaoyu was overjoyed with her masterpiece. All she had to do next was lure the little mute over.
However, he forgot that the little mute girl could turn into a shadow, and everything he did was seen by her.
They were secretly laughing at him from the tree.
A dark shadow flashed by, and the little mute boy reappeared beside Cui Yulu. Seeing that she was still busy, he gestured and said, "Take a break, I'll do the rest."
The little mute was a man after all, and he was stronger than her at farming. In no time, he had finished farming the rest of the land.
"I've finished planting, let's go home."
Fu Xiaoyu, who was hiding behind the tree, was extremely anxious when she saw this, and quickly ran out to stop them.
"Where are you going?"
"Come home for dinner. Aren't you going to eat?"
Cui Yulu looked at him helplessly. His face and body were covered in mud, and she had no idea what he had been doing.
Qiao Yuzhu doesn't care about him and just lets him run around like that. I don't know what she's up to.
"I want to eat too. Come with me, I'll take you to eat."
"What? What does it have to do with you if I go back to the cave for a meal? You should go back to your Miss Qiao's place."
As she spoke, she took the little mute boy's hand and started walking towards the cave, but Fu Xiaoyu stopped her.
“You can go back, he’ll come with me, I, I…”
He couldn't tell Cui Yulu that he was going to punish the little mute, but he couldn't think of a good reason.
He could only stammer and keep talking.
"Aren't you annoying? Get out of my way and don't keep me from getting home for dinner."
Cui Yulu turned around angrily and walked back with the little mute boy.
"Hey, don't go, make him come with me, I have something to ask him."
Finally, he came up with a good reason, pointed at the little mute boy, and gestured for him to come with him.
"What are you up to now? Why are you looking for that mute girl?"
"Yulu, I'll go with him. You just wait here for me."
After watching him finish gesturing, Cui Yulu nodded and stood still, waiting for him.
Seeing that his plan was about to succeed, Fu Xiaoyu couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.
Little did he know that the little mute girl behind him was laughing even more happily than he was.
The little mute girl walked behind him the whole time, her eyes brimming with murderous intent.
If it weren't for his master's request, he would have liked to end this man right now.
This way, he could avenge his blood feud.
"Tell me, did you hold her hand?"
Fu Xiaoyu asked in a gloomy voice, his face devoid of any smile, and seemingly less foolish.
"Oh, I forgot you can't speak. Never mind, you probably secretly held her hand, and then she pushed you down the stairs and left you inside all night. That would scare you to death."
This fool actually revealed his entire scheme; he's mute, but not deaf.
Fu Xiaoyu approached him with a sinister smile, reaching out her hands as if to push him down.
As a result, the little mute disappeared in a dark shadow. Fu Xiaoyu lost his balance and fell into the trap headfirst. Before he could even make a sound, the little mute saw bright red blood flowing out.
Fearing he might die, the little mute quickly ran off to find Cui Yulu.
"What's wrong? Why did you come over in such a panic?"
The little mute gestured and said, "He's fallen into a trap, we need to go save him."
Cui Yulu suddenly realized that Fu Xiaoyu was covered in mud and had suddenly gone to find the little mute boy because he wanted to lure him into a trap. However, she never expected that she would fall into the trap herself.
Cui Yulu felt helpless. This person was really too troublesome; he had gotten himself into a trap.
"Let's go check on him, just in case he's dead inside."
After they finished speaking, the two walked together toward the trap, just in time to see Qiao Yuzhu rescue him.
The trap wasn't deep, but he suddenly fell in and hit his forehead, bleeding quite a bit. His entire moon-white clothes were stained red, which looked rather frightening.
What are you doing here?
Qiao Yuzhu saw the two of them and questioned them in a harsh tone.
"Didn't you say you didn't want him before? Besides, I've been taking care of him for three months now, and he's gotten used to it. You'd better not even think about taking him away."
Cui Yulu shook her head helplessly: "Who told you I was going to take him away? Just now, the little mute saw him fall into the trap and asked me to come and check the situation, so that no one would collect his body if he died. Since you're here, then you should keep an eye on him and not let him do these useless things, otherwise he'll be the one who gets hurt next time."
After saying that, Cui Yulu grabbed the little mute boy and left without looking back, leaving only Qiao Yuzhu and the injured Fu Xiaoyu behind.
"Hey, since you're here, why don't you check his head first? Can't you see he's injured?"
Qiao Yuzhu doesn't know any medicine. She can usually handle minor wounds, but this guy is unconscious now, so she has to find a doctor to take a look.
In this Ghost Cave Village, the two people who know medicine are Old Ghost Head and Cui Yulu.
Normally, when people have a headache or fever, they go to Cui Yulu. Old Guitou has been living a semi-retired life, and Cui Yulu usually treats everyone.
Since she cured Du San Niang's illness, her reputation in the village has grown increasingly renowned. In addition, her ability to summon heavenly lightning has earned her even more favor from everyone.
Qiao Yuzhu called out to them loudly from behind, but the two seemed not to hear her and walked straight ahead back to the stone cave.
"Aren't you worried about him? He injured his head. He was already mentally challenged; won't he become even more mentally challenged?"
Cui Yulu was amused by the little mute boy, which made her even sillier. She was already silly enough, how much sillier could she be? Cui Yulu couldn't imagine.
However, I still found what the little mute boy said very interesting, so I made a "you're so cute" gesture to him, which made the little mute boy feel flattered.
"Why are you staring at me like that? We've known each other for so long, and I've learned a few gestures, but I don't know if they're right or not. Don't laugh at me."
Cui Yulu looked at him somewhat embarrassedly. She had learned the gesture by observing these geniuses, and she wasn't sure if she was doing it correctly.
"I won't laugh at you. You're very smart and you learn quickly. You did a great job, which touched me deeply. I will remember the warmth you gave me for the rest of my life."
The little mute boy said sadly, his eyes never leaving Cui Yulu.
I was afraid of missing any expression on her face.
Only from her expression could he feel his true existence. He was truly afraid that this was a fleeting illusion, and if she disappeared, there would be nothing left.
