Although Long Yao was naive, he could understand the expression on Ying Yuan's face.
He turned to look at Long Zhong, tears as big as beans slid down his face, and he asked with sobs:
"Third brother, is there something wrong with mother?"
He was not asking doubts, but wanted to get the truth from Long Zhong.
Long Zhong hugged him and didn't say anything. He knew that he couldn't hide it this time. He looked at Ying Yuan with fierce and angry eyes.
He shouted angrily:
"Now you are happy!"
Although Long Zhong liked to bully Long Yao the most on weekdays and quarreled and fought with him, he cared about this little guy more than anyone else.
Ying Yuan was already angry, and he was ruthlessly driven out by the Leihe tribe. He was upset and irritable, and he lost control and got angry at Long Yao.
Seeing Long Yao's tears falling, the irritability in his heart suddenly dissipated a little, and he calmed down, regretting the harsh words he said to Long Yao.
"I..." Ying Yuan opened his mouth, with a trace of guilt on his face.
Even if he was angry, he shouldn't get angry at a cub.
Before he could say the three words "I'm sorry", Hu Qingyuan jumped out from nowhere, punched Ying Yuan in the face, and threw him to the ground. He sat on him and started beating him in the face with two fists as big as sandbags.
"Yingyuan, you are such a piece of shit. Why are you so angry at Long Yao for no reason? Did he provoke you?"
Hu Qingyuan was furious.
Although Long Yao was a male, Hu Jiaojiao also held him in the palm of her hand and protected him. Seeing Yingyuan bullying Long Yao, Hu Qingyuan felt like he was being bullied.
His temper flared up.
"Hu Qingyuan, you are crazy!" Yingyuan cursed angrily.
After being punched, he reacted quickly, using his two arms to block Hu Qingyuan's fist, and suddenly pushed him away, standing up with a gloomy face.
"Yingyuan, you're going too far." Hu Jing also ran over behind Hu Qingyuan, looking at Yingyuan with righteous indignation.
Along the way, everyone of them carefully took care of Long Yao's emotions, just to prevent Long Yao from knowing about Hu Jiaojiao's affairs, for fear that he would be worried and sad.
He was like a star in the team, bringing them a ray of light in the dark road ahead.
They carefully guarded Long Yao's innocence, as if they were also working for Hu Jiaojiao, who was nowhere to be found, and for the tribe.
But Yingyuan had to blow out this last ray of light.
"Third brother, it's all Xiaowu's fault. Xiaowu can't help at all and always causes trouble for everyone. I'm sorry..."
Long Yao's head almost drooped to his toes. His voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing, and he apologized with sobs.
"Xiaowu will never make trouble again, and will never be naughty again. Third brother, fourth uncle, don't hate Xiaowu, Xiaowu will try his best to help in the future..."
He lowered his head, tears kept falling down, as if he suddenly understood that he was actually a burden.
Hu Qingyuan was furious, and pushed Yingyuan's shoulder away with force, walked past him, and came to Long Yao.
"Xiaowu, you didn't cause us any trouble, don't cry..." He wanted to comfort Long Yao, but he was too dumb to say anything.
Hu Jing pulled him away and said to Long Yao in a domineering manner: "He has upset you. When you grow up, just beat him up."
"If you are not satisfied, beat him up a few more times."
Ying Yuan was speechless. Is it really okay to say this in front of him? After
hearing what Hu Jing said, Long Yao burst into tears.
"Xiao Wu... Xiao Wu can't beat him, wow..."
Hu Qingyuan quickly pulled Hu Jing back and told her to stop talking, fearing that if she continued to persuade him, Long Yao would cry even harder.
Hu Jing touched her nose, not knowing where she had said it wrong.
...
"Long Mo, why do I seem to hear the crying of the baby?"
Hu Jiaojiao was hurrying along with Long Lin in her arms, when she suddenly heard a faint cry coming from below.
Hearing Hu Jiaojiao's words, Long Mo slowed down, listened carefully, and really heard the cry.
"Yes, there was crying."
Long Mo was a little surprised.
The sound came from far away, Long Mo was flying, and was almost covered by the sound of the wind, so he didn't notice it, but Hu Jiaojiao heard it.
"Why does this sound so much like Yao'er's?" Hu Jiaojiao tightened her fingers, not knowing if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the sound was very familiar.
Her heart seemed to be pulled up, and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, we'll go look for it." Long Mo comforted her, and immediately changed direction and flew towards the ground.
Long Mo was very fast, and in a few breaths, he had already arrived above the forest.
Below them was a mountain range covered with snow. The old trees on the mountain were entangled, and the branches were tightly covered with snow, as if they had produced a lot of white fruits.
The snow almost blocked their vision, and Long Mo only found the footprints on the snow after getting closer.
If it weren't for the crying just now, he would have missed it.
Fox Jiaojiao held Long Lin with one hand and placed the other hand flat on her eyebrows to block the cold wind blowing in her face. Her anxious eyes looked at the ground and searched around.
Soon, the owner of the crying was found at a hidden foot of the mountain.
After seeing the beastmen standing on the ground, Hu Jiaojiao's face lit up, patting Longlin, and said in surprise:
"It's really Xiaowu, Long Mo, go down quickly, we found Xiaowu!"
Long Mo quickly landed at the target point after hearing the voice.
"Fourth brother, Hu Jing!"
Hu Qingyuan and Hu Jing were worrying about how to coax Long Yao, and suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"I think I heard my little sister's voice?" Hu Qingyuan was stunned.
Hu Jing subconsciously looked up and saw a black dragon flying in the sky, and a petite figure lying on it, sticking his head out and waving at them excitedly.
She was stunned for a moment, then she excitedly patted Hu Qingyuan's shoulder as if she was patting a ball, and said happily:
"It's not just an appearance, it's really Jiaojiao! Jiaojiao is here, she's fine..."
Hu Jing said, pointing at the black dragon in the sky.
It was about to jump up.
Hu Qingyuan's shoulder was crooked in pain, and he cried out.
He looked up and saw Hu Jiaojiao. The pain was gone immediately, and a silly smile appeared on his face.
"It's really my little sister. My little sister is safe. Long Mo rescued her!" For the first time, Hu Qingyuan's mind analyzed the situation so clearly.
Yingyuan looked up at the sky, slightly stunned, and a flash of shock flashed in his eyes.
He actually rescued Foxy so quickly and found this place...
For the first time, his serious face examined the two of them seriously. Not only had Foxy changed, but Long Mo was also completely different from before. The distance between them seemed to have been pulled away unconsciously.
Why on earth would it be like this...
"Xiaowu, don't cry, mother is here to pick you up!" Seeing Foxy in the sky, Long Zhong also patted Long Yao excitedly.
Long Yao was heartbroken and thought they were lying to him. He twisted his shoulders, turned his back, and refused to believe them. He
said aggrievedly:
"Third brother, don't lie to me..."
