It would be strange not to worry. Look at the chaos outside! Several forces are fighting each other, and in the end, it's always the ordinary people who suffer. Especially this Duke, who doesn't treat ordinary people like human beings at all. Human life is worthless, and they could be hunted down at any time.
Tantan and Axun ran into Duke as soon as they left the mountain, and were chased and fell off a cliff. If they run into him again, what will happen?
“No, Xiayang Village belongs to Xiangyang City, and the terrain here is complicated,” Song Tantan told her about the awkward terrain of Xiayang Village. “Duke is afraid of death and dares not come out to fight the rebels. He is afraid of being beaten and stays at home. The rebels are also afraid of death and are content with enjoying themselves. They have no intention of fighting. They are all worthless. We are safe for the time being.”
Afterwards, Song Tantan comforted and persuaded Song Zhuiyan for a long time, and finally convinced her to take the person back to the village first, and then come out of the mountain to find her and Ye Moxun later.
"Even if Xiayang Village is safe for the time being, we must be careful. We can't afford to get hurt again. Do we have all the necessary protective gear?" Song Zhuiyan thought about going back to get more herbs to put in her space so that Ye Moxun could continue making medicine, and that she wouldn't have to worry about running out of medicine.
After thinking about it, I decided to go back and plant some herbs in the fields of my space. That would be more convenient; I could just pick them when I needed them.
“That’s a good idea. When you get back, get some herbs and transplant them into your space. I can dig them up and use them anytime. By the way, Mount Tai is also deep in the mountains. Blow your whistle and look for them. If they’re there, bring the second and third brothers along to guide you. Put Mount Tai in your space, and I’ll bring it out to protect me and Ah Xun.”
Hearing this, Song Zhuiyan felt a little more at ease. The second and third brothers would protect them first, and after returning to the village, she would put a few more dogs into her space and then take Tantan out. With the dogs protecting them, she would feel much more at ease.
She was so relieved because Song Tantan only said that she and Ye Moxun were scratched when they fell off the cliff, but were not seriously injured. She dared not tell her that she was shot in the mouth by an arrow and that Ye Moxun was slashed. She only said that they were slightly injured and that they were just swept away by the river and could not find their way back, so they were trapped in Xiayang City.
After talking for a while, the two left their respective spaces. Song Zhuiyan dared not stay in the space for too long. They were spending the night in the deep mountains and could encounter danger at any time. She went into the space while her body slept soundly outside. If a wild beast attacked, she would only be waiting to die.
Although Zhong Qingyi would definitely protect her immediately, she couldn't hold her back. After leaving the space, Song Zhuiyan immediately opened her eyes and got up.
"What's wrong?" Zhong Qingyi thought she sensed danger, so she immediately stood up and stood next to her.
"It's nothing, I think I heard Mount Tai's voice." Song Zhuiyan said seriously, as if she really heard something.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Qingyi calmed down and listened carefully. She could only hear birds chirping and insects buzzing, and occasionally the howl of a wild beast from afar, but she did not hear the familiar barking of a dog.
Song Zhuiyan was just putting on an act; otherwise, how could she have summoned the three brothers from Mount Tai? A moment later, she put her fingers in her mouth and whistled. Not long after, Mount Tai, the second brother, and the third brother emerged from the shadow of a towering tree.
The second and third brothers were overjoyed to see Song Zhuiyan and Zhong Qingyi, rushing over to rub against them and wagging their tails happily, while Taishan remained aloof.
Actually, the three Taishan dogs spotted them as soon as they entered the mountain, but Taishan didn't let the second and third brothers go out to recognize them. They just followed them all the way. They didn't plan to follow them for too long. Tomorrow they would go to the outer perimeter to continue waiting for Song Tantan and Ye Moxun.
Without Taishan's permission, the second and third brothers dared not show themselves easily. Even after Song Zhuiyan whistled, Taishan remained unmoved. After thinking for a moment, it brought the second and third brothers out, because it realized that Song Zhuiyan might have something to say.
"How did you get here?" Zhong Qingyi was initially happy, but quickly realized something was wrong. Taishan had always been by Axun's side, so how could he be here?
Seeing his confusion, Song Zhuiyan immediately changed the subject, saying, "It must be that A-Xun and Tan-Tan were worried about us, so they had Tai-Shan bring the second and third brothers to greet us. That's good, it will make us safer."
Zhong Qingyi looked at her with suspicion on his face, but he couldn't think of anything else, so he could only nod and choose to believe her.
Song Zhuiyan breathed a sigh of relief. That night, after everyone had fallen asleep, she quietly put Taishan into her spatial storage. "Don't panic, Tantan will come to take you out soon."
Before she could finish speaking, Song Tantan also entered the space. At this moment, the two of them were in the courtyard of their old home. There was no distinction between day and night in the space, and the sun and moon could not be seen, but there were blue skies and white clouds. It was very mysterious, and no one knew how to explain that grains could be grown in all four seasons, and that other things could also be grown.
"You're still not asleep so late. It'll be the same if you take Taishan out again tomorrow," Song Zhuiyan scolded.
"That won't do. I promised Ye Moxun, but he's afraid that Mount Tai will be frightened and uneasy if it suddenly goes to an unfamiliar place, since it can't move freely." Living things brought into the space by Song Zhuiyan have no freedom of movement and can only be confined to one place.
Song Zhuiyan didn't say anything more, but patted Taishan's head and instructed it, "From now on, Tantan and Axun are in your care. You must protect them well."
"Awoo." Mount Tai is the most perceptive of all beings, how could it not understand what she was saying?
"It's good that you agreed. Take it to see A-Xun quickly. I need to get out of here soon too." After giving her instructions, Song Zhuiyan left the space first.
Song Tantan brought Taishan to Ye Moxun's room. Ye Moxun was woken up by Taishan licking him. He opened his eyes abruptly and saw Taishan's fluffy head. He was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"Why are you here? Did you come looking for yourself?"
"You're overthinking it. I had my aunt put Mount Tai in her spatial storage, and then I brought it out. No matter how keen Mount Tai's nose is, it couldn't possibly find this place by crossing a river."
"My aunt and the others are going back to Songlin Village, taking a few people with them." Song Tantan briefly told Ye Moxun what she knew.
