Chapter 331 As long as the mountain is still there, the family is still there!

The old man helped Sun Yuan to stand up. Sun Yuan felt a little embarrassed that he had to be carried by others at his age.

But the pain in his legs was getting worse and worse. He could not care less. Saving his life was the most important thing!

The old man carried him to the wooden house, brought out a basin of hot water and a piece of cotton cloth and put them on the ground: "Clean yourself first, I'll get you some herbs!"

After that, he turned around and walked into the room again. When he came out, he had some herbs he had never seen before.

The old man put the herbs in the stone mortar and stirred them. Sun Yuan tore open his trouser legs and washed them with warm water...

The wound was not too deep, but it would take at least a month to heal...

After all, it was not in the hospital and he could not get the best treatment. It was good enough to get some herbs in the mountains.

After washing, the old man's herbs were also prepared. They were cool and comfortable to apply.

Sun Yuan did not dare to ask more. He was grateful enough that the other party was willing to save him. He dared not mention anything else at this time.

He was already a skinny body, and now his face was pale because of excessive blood loss. His lips were pale!

Seeing his dying appearance, the old man shook his head and walked out of the house.

Sun Yuan saw the old man go out, and quickly shouted from behind: "Old man, don't go out at night! You can't see clearly on the road!"

I don't know what he is thinking?

He is injured and thinks others are as stupid as him?

Sun Yuan is worried about the old man. Is it because he doesn't have enough herbs, so he still wants to go out to find them?

This won't do, he is already old!

He is in such a state in the middle of the night, he can't let the old man get injured because of me!

Just as he was about to stand up and go out to chase the old man, he saw the old man walking in with a bowl. The old man handed the bowl to Sun Yuan: "Hurry up and finish eating! Look at you, don't let yourself be killed by the trap, but die of hunger first!"

Sun Yuan stared at the bowl in front of him. In it was the rabbit meat from the daytime, and a big steamed bun!

Sun Yuan looked at the bowl, then looked up at the old man, his eyes misty...

The old man frowned when he saw his expression and said, "Don't want to eat? Or are you not hungry?"

Sun Yuan took the bowl and smiled silly, "Eat! Thank you!"

Then he grabbed the rabbit leg and started to eat it!

I had only tasted it twice at noon, and when I left, I regretted not being able to eat more rabbit meat.

I didn't expect that I would have the chance to eat it now!

After so many days, he finally had a full meal...

Gu Qizheng had left him some money, but he was determined not to disappoint his leader's trust and refused to go down the mountain without finding some clues, so he had to sleep in the open air for so many days...

The wooden house was not big, and the old man sat on the side and watched him finish eating, and then took the bowl from him: "Hurry up and go to bed, you've been tossing all night, it's almost dawn!"

Sun Yuan looked out the window, and the sky was already turning pale.

Thinking about the experience of this night, he felt a little sorry for the old man: "Old man, I'm sorry, you didn't get a rest all night."

The old man didn't say anything, took the bowl and walked out.

After eating, Sun Yuan also felt sleepy. He had been so nervous sleeping in the cave these days that he dared not fall asleep deeply. He just lay down and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes...

He slept for half a day...

He was awakened by the sound of chopping wood outside the door. How tired must he be to sleep so deeply?

The old man saw that he was sleeping soundly and did not wake him up. It seemed that he was also exhausted.

After Sun Yuan got up, he looked at the wound on his leg. He didn't know when the old man had bandaged it for him. The herbal medicine applied last night had stopped the bleeding. Now he just had to pay attention and wait for the recovery.

Fortunately, the injury did not hurt his bones, otherwise his military career would be over...

Sun Yuan's injured left leg was powerless, so he could only hop to the door. Seeing the old man swinging an axe to chop wood, he jumped out of the house and came to the old man: "Old man, let me help you."

The old man saw him get up, looked down at his injuries and said: "Young people are different, they recover quickly!"

Sun Yuan smiled and said, "Your herbs are still the best!"

The old man pushed him aside and said, "Go away, there is food in the kitchen."

Sun Yuan smiled and said, "No problem, I'll help you chop wood!"

As he was about to grab the axe in the old man's hand, he was ruthlessly rejected by the old man: "Forget it, you can't even stand steadily, hurry up and eat, you don't have any strength and you still want to chop wood? Wait until you get better!" Wait until you get better

?

It sounds like this means that he can stay for a few more days?

Sun Yuan was a little excited, and he went to the old man and smiled and said, "Do you mean I can stay until my injury is healed?"

The old man didn't say anything and continued to swing the axe.

Sun Yuan knew what the old man meant, and excitedly jumped to the kitchen.

In the following days, Sun Yuan found various opportunities to help the old man every day. Although his leg was injured, fortunately his hands and body were fine. He couldn't live in someone else's house for nothing!

During this time, Sun Yuan helped the old man chop wood, make fire, find wild fruits and vegetables in the mountains, and help feed chickens. Although there were only two chickens, they looked like pheasants...

After getting along for half a month, Sun Yuan slowly learned a little about the old man's situation...

The old man's name was Feng Guoping, and he was the mountain keeper of Miyun Mountain.

There was a small village on this mountain before, with many people living there, and the village was quite lively.

He also had a family, and the family lived a hard but happy life.

But later, a forest fire killed all the family members except himself...

So for so many years, the village was gone, and he stayed on this mountain to protect his relatives!

As long as the mountain is still there, the family is still there!

Hearing about the old man's experience, Sun Yuan felt very sympathetic and finally understood why the old man rejected him so much after hearing what he said before.

The old man has deep feelings for this mountain. It is his longing for his family. This mountain is his home. How can he allow others to do anything bad to it?

Through his understanding of Sun Yuan during this period, the old man can also feel that he is not a bad person, but he can't guess what his intention is to come to Miyun Mountain. He was originally prepared to take the secret of this mountain to the ground alone. Could it be that someone else knows it? After

dinner, the two sat aside to drink tea. Sun Yuan looked at the old man and asked curiously: "How could there be a sudden mountain fire at that time?"

The old man shook his head and sneered: "Haha, who knows if it was a mountain fire? At that time, I went out to do something, and when I came back, I found... my wife and son were all gone..."

Hearing this, Sun Yuan unconsciously looked at the old man twice more. The old man felt his gaze and smiled and said, "It's okay, it happened so many years ago. I have been investigating for a long time, but I have never found any evidence... I can't find anything..."

Sun Yuan asked doubtfully, "Is there anyone suspicious?"

The old man lowered his head and took a sip of tea, "Well, someone came up to the mountain and said that they wanted to contract our mountain and requisition our land. They said they would give us some money and let us move away."

Sun Yuan was surprised and asked, "Could it be this group of people?!"
