Aunt Zhang walked over with a frown on her face.
"It's been years since we've seen any wild animals coming down the mountain."
"Oh no! Will the wall be knocked down by a wild beast?!"
Aunt Zhang looked at the wild boar digging through the coriander field, her eyes widened, and she ran towards the wall.
This coriander field is at the foot of the mountain. More than ten years ago, wild animals often came here, so the owner set up many traps at the foot of the mountain.
After a long time, the wild beasts gradually stopped coming.
The owner later raised the wall a lot higher, and no wild animals came in anymore.
This mountain range is connected to a dark mountain range that stretches as far as the eye can see.
By climbing this mountain range, you can reach Xiliang and Daliang.
The Apocalypse Kingdom has never fought a war with these two countries, not because of friendly neighborliness.
This is because this dark mountain range is extremely rugged and covers an extremely large area, comparable to the size of two cities.
At that time, both Xiliang Kingdom and their Tianqi Kingdom wanted to occupy this mountain range.
The two countries each began to occupy the mountains on their own side.
As a result, we could only reach the sixth hill and could not go any further.
Moreover, every time 1,000 people enter the Dark Mountains, only a dozen or so can come back at most.
The losses were too great, so the Apocalypse Kingdom gave up.
For so many years, we haven't seen the Western Liang Kingdom and the Daliang Kingdom attacking from the other side of the mountain. I guess those two countries have given up.
When Aunt Zhang said this, Aunt Wang and Aunt Qian were startled and ran towards the wall at the foot of the mountain.
Xiao Yunyou was stunned for a moment, covering his face and following them.
The four of them ran to the wall at the foot of the mountain and looked at the rows of walls. There was not a single damaged part of the wall.
There’s a three-meter-high wall. How can that thing jump over it?
The three women were dumbfounded and looked at each other in confusion.
Xiao Yunyou stopped four meters away from the wall.
He squinted his eyes and looked up at the dark mountains, feeling extremely sad.
A mountain range blocked his reunion with his family.
He had learned indirectly from these ladies that the Apocalypse Kingdom had given up on conquering this mountain range.
So when can he go home?
For a person without any identity, it was harder than climbing to the sky for him to cross the Tianqi Kingdom, bypass the Yan and Chu Kingdoms and reach the Daliang Kingdom.
Each country has strict checks on people without identity documents.
If he hadn't pretended to have lost his memory and tricked the master into letting him stay at the manor, he would probably be in jail by now...

"Master--Ranran, try this. This is the scrambled eggs with green peppers that I made. It goes really well with rice."
Yao Wenhong smiled and brought the dish she cooked to Lin Yiran.
She now wished she could kneel down and serve Lin Yiran.
If the Xiao family didn't have Lin Yiran, it would have fallen apart long ago.
Ranran is the savior of everyone in the Xiao family.
"Yeah, thank you, sister-in-law. It smells really good!"
Lin Yiran smiled and nodded, picked up a piece of rice with chopsticks, and took a big bite of it together with the rice.
After taking a bite, Lin Yiran's eyes lit up and she gave Yao Wenhong a thumbs up.
"It's really good, just the right amount of spicy, and the eggs are still tender."
This was her first time eating scrambled eggs with chili peppers. The eggs were wrapped with chili peppers, and it was spicy, fragrant and smooth, and very delicious.
Yao Wenhong grinned,
"As long as you like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow."
Yao Wenhong waited until Lin Yiran finished his meal and commented on it before she sat down with a grin.
Xiao Yunzhan held the bowl and looked at Yao Wenhong and then at Lin Yiran.
Why did he feel like there was some secret between the two of them?
Xiao Yunzhan kept eating rice, glancing at Lin Yiran while eating, his heart full of confusion.
"Why are you looking at me? I have food on my face."
Every time Lin Yiran looked up, she would meet Xiao Yunzhan's gaze. She glanced at him speechlessly.
"Do you want to eat with some vegetables or just eat rice?"
What is this guy doing? He keeps staring at her. What does he want to do?
Is there something else that needs her help?
Wan Suyun paused slightly while chewing his rice.
She frowned and looked at Yao Wenhong.
"Second sister-in-law, were you crying this morning?"
".....Ah!?" Yao Wenhong was staring at Lin Yiran with a smile in her eyes. When she heard Wan Suyun's words, she didn't react for a moment.
Yao Wenhong glanced at Wan Suyun quickly, then immediately lowered her eyelids and smiled.
"No, it's a good day, why am I crying? I got a bug in my eye and I rubbed it."
After hearing what Yao Wenhong said, Lin Yiran looked up into her eyes.
She sighed slightly in her heart.
It seems that her second sister-in-law was still sad when she mentioned her second brother.
I can't tell them until I rescue the four of them, so as not to scare them.
Xiao Yunzhan, a grown man, had his black level fluctuate after hearing about the four father and sons, let alone them.
Wan Suyun looked at Yao Wenhong's red and swollen eyes and frowned.
"Really? If you miss Ling Yan, go back and see her first."
Wan Suyun saw that Yao Wenhong didn't want to talk, so he changed the subject.
"Well, I haven't seen Ling Yan for several days, and I do miss her."
Yao Wenhong continued speaking along with Wan Suyun's words.
"However, I feel relieved that my mother and my third sister-in-law are taking care of her."
"By the way, when do Ranran and Fourth Brother plan to return to Shuitian City?"
As Yao Wenhong spoke, the topic shifted to Lin Yiran and Xiao Yunzhan.
