A trace of fear flashed across Second Uncle's eyes, and he spoke slowly.
"Yesterday I went to pick corn. I saw a wounded pheasant thrashing about when I was halfway through. I thought it was a good opportunity to catch it and eat it. But the pheasant quickly disappeared into the woods, so I followed it. I hadn't walked far when I ran into those two beasts. Only then did I realize that all this was a trap set by those two beasts. It's strange to say, when did the beasts in the mountains become so smart?
I took the opportunity to kill the female, but the male was too quick to react and was very smart. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have died there."
Even though he had successfully escaped, there was still some fear in my uncle's eyes when he was narrating the story.
"Oh! Boss! You're awake!" At this time, Ershen suddenly woke up, and saw that his second uncle woke up, with an excited expression on his face.
"Well, it's okay. I'm sorry for making you worry about my wife..." The second uncle forced a smile and comforted her.
"You scared me to death... I thought you were dying..." As she spoke, Second Aunt's eyes began to turn red, and finally she lay on Second Uncle and started crying.
My second uncle was a farmer and he didn't know how to coax his wife for a moment, so he could only pat her on the back gently.
Meng Fei smiled, got up and went to the kitchen, intending to cook some millet porridge for his second uncle, which would also give the old couple some private space.
My second uncle and second aunt were chatting quietly in the house, while Meng Fei was busy in the kitchen.
It didn't take long for breakfast to be prepared and served on the table. Since my uncle had just recovered, he had no appetite, so my second uncle fed him half a bowl of millet porridge, and then she lay down to rest.
After dinner, Second Aunt brought a basin of warm water and planned to wipe Second Uncle's body again.
Seeing that he was no longer needed here, Meng Fei got up and prepared to go home.
But just as I stepped out of the door, I heard my second aunt's scream.
"Oh my! What's wrong with you, boss?" Second Aunt's voice was hurried.
Hearing this, Meng Fei quickly turned around and went back to the kang, only to see that there was a purple mark on his second uncle's right calf, extending from the knee to the toes, which looked extremely creepy.
"It's frostbite!!!" Meng Fei frowned. He didn't expect that even after the careful treatment given by the Second Master last night, he still got frostbite.
"Gouzi!! What should we do? I hope your uncle's leg is not hurt." Auntie was about to cry again as she spoke, and Uncle frowned as she watched.
"Why are you crying? You old woman, you only know how to cry. It's no big deal. My toes were almost frozen off when I was a child, but they are fine now." The second uncle frowned and scolded.
Second Uncle sat on the kang and pondered for a moment. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he said to Meng Fei beside him:
"Hey! Gouzi! I suddenly remembered that when I entered the mountains yesterday, there was a large piece of frostbite on a birch tree not far from the forest! That thing is specially used to treat frostbite! My dad had it done when I was a child! It works great!"
Hearing this, Meng Fei's originally somewhat worried mood instantly improved, and he said happily: "Okay! I'll go get it back in a while! Uncle, lie down first, I'll change the medicine on your back wound."
After saying that, Meng Fei changed the medicine for his second uncle and returned home to prepare to go up the mountain.
As soon as he returned home, Meng Fei heard bursts of mournful screams coming from the backyard.
Meng Fei was stunned. The voice sounded like a little lynx, so he hurried to the backyard.
At this time, the backyard.
The little fox was standing in front of the male snow leopard with its teeth bared and a ferocious look on its face, while the two little lynxes were hiding behind the male snow leopard, crawling on the ground and trembling.
"Susu, these two little things are still young and don't understand anything. They have no involvement in your tribe's affairs. There is no need to be so angry. I will definitely educate them well in the future and not let them cause trouble everywhere." The female snow leopard advised.
"Hmph!! Lynxes are not good creatures!! My mother was bitten to death by them!! Get out of the way!! I'm going to kill these two cubs!" After saying that, the little fox tried to bypass the male snow leopard and pounce on it.
"What's the matter? Why are you so angry?"
Hearing Meng Fei's voice, the little fox snorted coldly, stopped his actions, turned his head to the side, and spoke to himself.
"Humph!! You knew they were the murderers of my mother, why did you bring them back!!!"
Seeing the little fox's face full of resentment, Meng Fei smiled bitterly, squatted down and comforted him:
"Their mother died, and their father ran away. If I hadn't brought them back in this icy and snowy place, they would have frozen to death outside. I told the snow leopard couple yesterday that I should educate them well. You are the most sensible and kind person in our family. You wouldn't want them to freeze to death outside, would you?"
After hearing Meng Fei's words, especially the two sentences in which Meng Fei praised him, the little fox felt a lot less resentful, but he still looked at the two little lynxes behind the snow leopard with some discomfort.
"Hmph! You two little brats better behave yourself!! If I find anything wrong with you two, don't blame me for making you suffer! Roar!!!" the little fox said viciously, and at the end she didn't forget to roar at the two little guys, scaring the two little guys so much that they shrank their heads, their eyes full of fear.
"Haha, you, don't scare them. They are two babies who are not even a month old. Oh, by the way, where are the little monkeys and the little squirrels? Why can't I see them?" Meng Fei asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"The little squirrel has been going out early and coming back late every day recently. I don't know what it is busy with. It disappeared when I got up. As for the little monkey... I just saw it... Where did it go... Oh! There it is!!!"
As he spoke, the little fox raised his paw and pointed it into the woods.
Following the direction of the little fox's finger, I saw a vague figure in the forest, lying on a tree, and I didn't know what he was busy with.
