Chapter 90 There is a Living Person in the Cave
"I'm tired. I have no strength left in my body. I can't even stand steadily."
As he spoke, his legs went limp and he quickly fell to the ground.
Qi Man reacted quickly. When Mr. Qi fell to the ground, she supported him in time and said in a soft voice:
"Just take a nap! Get up and eat something, Grandpa, I'll help you get some rest!"
The Great Repair Pill has a great effect. Grandpa's health was seriously weak before, and his chronic illness suddenly healed. There will be some minor side effects, that is, the body will fall into a state of fatigue, and he needs a good sleep to recuperate. After getting up, he needs a protective meal to replenish his strength.
"Hey!" Mr. Qi responded.
He believed in what Manman said without a doubt. Even if he took the risk and lost his life, he could only say that it was the end of his life and he couldn't blame anyone else.
Qi Man helped Old Man Qi into the room to rest. After coming out, she finished the remaining pork rib porridge and meat buns, washed the two bowls, stretched, took out a bench and placed it in the middle of the yard to bask in the warm morning sunlight.
The sunlight in the morning is mild and can be enjoyed moderately; the sunlight at noon and afternoon is too harsh and can harm the skin, so it is better to stay out of the sun.
Under the warm sunshine, Qi Man fell asleep again in a daze.
It was noon when I was awakened by the sound of the door being pushed open.
He got down from the hammock, rubbed his hazy eyes, and looked at Qi Erya and Qi Dongchen who had returned in a daze.
Their eyes met, and they seemed much more intimate than before.
Whenever Qi Erya met Qi Dongchen's gaze, she would blush and turn her head away; and Qi Dongchen would also smile naively, scratch his head with his hand, and look away.
Looking at Qi Erya's rosy little face, Qi Man's eyes flashed with worry, and her tone was concerned:
"Er Ya, why is your face so red?"
Qi Erya has been working in the fields all year round and has long been accustomed to the harsh summer sun.
No matter how big the sun is, there will be no abnormalities.
On the contrary, today, her little face was as red as a monkey's butt, so Qi Man was a little worried.
When Qi Erya heard this, she covered her face in panic, with a guilty look in her eyes, and quickly changed the subject:
"Cousin, I'm fine. It's been sunny here. You must be hungry. I'll go make dinner."
After saying that, he hurried to the kitchen.
Staring at Qi Erya's back, Qi Man frowned and muttered:
"Why is it so weird?"
It's like a guilty thief.
"Brother." Turning his head, his eyes fell on Qi Dongchen, and his tone was soft: "Did you encounter any problems when you went to work today?"
"Haha." Qi Dongchen laughed dryly and shook his head in embarrassment: "Nothing happened. I'll go to the kitchen to light the fire."
After saying that, he hurried into the kitchen.
Seeing these two people's strange actions, Qi Man frowned slightly, and became even more confused.
She didn't know if she was hallucinating, but she always felt that her cousin and her cheap brother were hiding something from her.
His eyes fell on the chimney where smoke was rising, and he sniffed.
Could it be her illusion?
I simply stopped worrying about it, stretched, and my eyes fell on the forest not far away. In this weather, it is better to sleep in the forest. Thinking of having lunch, I went for a walk in the forest.
At noon today, Qi Erya made stir-fried dried fish with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and old hen and codonopsis soup, which was as rich as usual.
During the meal, the atmosphere at the table was subtle. Qi Erya and Qi Dongchen secretly exchanged glances. Qi Man was immersed in the food and did not notice anything unusual.
On the contrary, it was Old Master Qi who noticed the abnormality of Qi Erya and Qi Dongchen, and his eyes darkened.
As someone who has been through this, if you don’t see it, then you are really confused.
Everyone was immersed in the food, except Mr. Qi, who was preoccupied with something on his mind.
If Erya and Dongchen are really what he thinks, then Dongchen's household registration must be moved out.
Everyone in Qingyun Village knew that Dongchen was not their biological son and had no blood relationship with them, so even if he married Erya, it could be considered a closer relationship.
After Qi Man had eaten and drunk her fill, she patted her round belly, burped, and went out, saying she was going for a walk to help digest the food.
Qi Dongchen, who was at home, always felt that there was something wrong with his grandfather's eyes when he looked at him and Erya since he finished his meal, and he felt inexplicably guilty.
Could it be that grandpa has figured out something?
"Grandpa, why...why are you looking at me like that?"
Mr. Qi quickly shifted his gaze and responded while drinking water:
"Nothing, I just feel like you've gained a lot of weight since you came back."
Qi Dongchen heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He scratched his head and smiled innocently, "That's right. Since I came back, I have become fatter at a speed visible to the naked eye."
As he said this, he pinched the flesh on his body.
Qi Dongchen, who thought he was a good disguise, had no idea how poor his acting skills were.
Old Master Qi raised his eyelids, but was too lazy to expose the secret and just started chatting.
…
Because Qi Man wanted to take a nap in the mountains and take a walk after dinner, she unknowingly entered the mountains.
The air in the forest is fresh and the breeze is gentle, which is cooler than outside.
When they entered the middle area, the leader wolf appeared beside Qi Man, staring straight ahead with his eyes, and said:
“We found treasure out west.”
baby?
Qi Man's eyes lit up, she liked wild and grown babies the most.
"Take me over there and have a look."
As he said this, he leaped up and sat on the wolf's body.
The leader wolf was extremely fast, a black figure shuttled through the jungle and soon arrived in the west.
The greenery in the west is much more lush, and there are many signs of animal life, but very few signs of human life.
The leader wolf sniffed around the clearing, staring at Qi Man with its green eyes: "It's right here."
Qi Man walked over quickly.
"Move aside."
The wolf leader obediently took two steps back. Qi Man clenched her small hands, and the soil automatically dispersed, allowing the treasure buried underground to see the light of day again.
Just when Qi Man was excitedly trying to dig out the treasure, she saw the scene in front of her and her face fell. She no longer had the excitement she had just now.
Below was a large earth pit, with a pungent fishy smell. There were some small furniture in it, including a bed, a small wooden table, and a piece of wood.
Most importantly, there is another person inside!
Yes!
It's a living person!
The man was so thin that he could be described as bony. His face was covered with beard, so his facial features could not be seen clearly, and his body was covered with a lot of dirt.
The man's eyes were open, but he was lying on a bed of earth.
The person lying on the bed seemed to be startled by the sudden noise. He turned his eyes to look at Qi Man and the mighty wolf standing above him. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Qi Man: ...
What kind of broken treasure is this?
Qi Man suddenly lost interest and muttered softly:
"I thought it was some kind of treasure. How boring."
Looking at the man lying on the earthen bed, Qi Man had no intention of lending a helping hand. She just wanted to restore the place to its original state and leave, then find a tree trunk and have a good sleep.
