I had long heard that wolves, tigers and leopards roamed the mountains, and that some people had been bitten by wolves while climbing the mountain. Although these were just rumors, they still frightened me.
Therefore, almost no one dared to go up the mountain.
Zheng Zhiyi was now filled with regret.
She shouldn't have disobeyed her mother and insisted on going up the mountain to gather herbs like Nanzhi.
"Nanzhi."
Nanzhi's attention was focused on the bushes not far away when someone suddenly called her name from behind, startling her.
"Shut up," she said irritably.
Zheng Zhiyi gripped Nan Zhi's sleeve tightly: "What I wanted to say was, if anything rushes out of the bushes later, I'll help you block it, but you have to repay the life-saving grace."
She paused for a moment, then said, "From now on, I'll leave my parents in your care."
Nanzhi's face was full of black lines.
It seems I'm also responsible for taking care of your parents in their old age.
Nan Zhi: "You want to be fed to the wolves?"
Zheng Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
“If you say that again, the wolf will come knocking on our door. Then we’ll go to your dreams together to honor your father.”
Zheng Zhiyi quickly waved her hand: That's not what she meant.
Just as she was about to explain, Nanzhi suddenly shushed her.
The two fell silent.
Immediately afterwards, a piece of clothing was thrown out of the swaying grass.
Why would clothes be thrown out of the bushes? Judging from the color, they seem to be women's. The two looked at each other.
Just as the two were puzzled, another garment with very little fabric was thrown out.
After Zheng Zhiyi squinted and saw what it was, her eyes widened immediately.
"Belly."
Nanzhi quickly covered her mouth, and the two squatted down.
The thick tree trunk just covered the two of them.
Zheng Zhiyi was so surprised because what was thrown out of the bushes was not just any object, but a woman's undergarment.
Her voice was loud enough that the person in the bushes still heard her. Suddenly, the bushes were parted, revealing a strong, muscular figure.
"Who's there!"
The two people behind the big tree dared not make a sound.
"Nobody's here, you're overthinking it." A fair, delicate arm stretched out, pointing at the man.
The man glanced around again and, finding no one there, realized that only a fool could resist such beauty. So he closed the bushes that were half a person tall.
"Ouch~"
A shameful sound came from the bushes.
Nanzhi had never seen anything like this before; this was what real "battlefield warfare" was like.
The two girls blushed and wanted to leave, but were afraid of making a sound and disturbing the two people in the bushes.
I was forced to cover my ears, but the sound still got through.
In the end, Nanzhi was truly numb.
Damn it, those two illicit lovers really know how to pick a spot.
Nanzhi knew very little about the people of Tai Le Village, but Zheng Zhiyi did not.
She had just caught a glimpse of that man and immediately recognized who was hiding in the bushes.
The villagers all said Wang Jingui was honest and willing to take care of his paralyzed wife, but they never expected that he was just pretending.
Seeing her distracted state, Nanzhi whispered, "You know her?"
Zheng Zhiyi nodded and then shook her head.
Since she had nothing else to do, Nanzhi was curious to hear some gossip.
"Tell me honestly, who is he?"
Zheng Zhiyi continued to shake her head.
"Don't worry, I won't tell."
Zheng Zhiyi hesitated for a moment, caught off guard by the gossip. Her womanly nature of sharing gossip kicked in, and she couldn't wait to find someone to share it with, so the two of them moved closer together.
Upon hearing this, Nanzhi's eyes widened.
This is so dramatic! I thought it was just a couple coming to the mountains to have some fun.
Unexpectedly, this man was already married, and his wife was completely paralyzed in bed. The woman who had spoken earlier had a strong voice, so how could it be the voice of a paralyzed person?
The two were extremely curious about whose woman was behind the bushes.
Before she could say anything, there was another rustling sound from the bushes nearby.
"Jin Gui'er, when will we meet again?" the woman said resentfully.
Nanzhi frowned; the woman's voice seemed familiar.
Wang Jingui tidied his clothes and casually touched the woman's face.
Whether I come or not depends on you; you have to come often.
"You idiot."
Nan Zhi couldn't resist peeking out.
Upon seeing the woman's face clearly, Nanzhi gasped.
Zheng Zhiyi immediately pulled the person back.
"What do you see?"
Nanzhi didn't speak, but pointed in the direction behind her.
It means, "Get out of here quickly."
The two tiptoed out step by step.
With a snap, the two froze on the spot.
"Who's there!" Wang Jingui looked warily behind the tree.
Li Fu'er stood up from the bushes and hid behind Wang Jingui.
Wang Jingui picked up a wooden stick from the side and slowly approached.
When he got behind the tree, he found that there was no one there.
Is he just overthinking it?
"Is anyone there?" Mrs. Li asked in a low voice.
Wang Jingui shook his head, but he still felt that someone had been behind the tree the whole time.
The two quickly packed up and left.
Nan Zhi then crawled out of Song Hanyan's arms.
If it weren't for Song Hanyan, the two of them would have been discovered. Luckily, he appeared in time and helped her up to the tree branch.
"Song Hanyan, what are you doing here?" Nanzhi asked, standing on a tree branch.
Song Hanyan looked at the person in his arms, "Come and collect the prey."
Nanzhi suddenly discovered that Zheng Zhiyi was missing.
Turning around, I saw that she was nestled in another man's arms.
A young woman suddenly snuggled into his arms, leaving Zhou Ping'an at a loss.
He wanted to reach out and pull the person out, but he was afraid of scaring the young lady, so he could only look to Song Hanyan for help.
Nanzhi covered her mouth and smiled.
"Ahem, Zheng Zhiyi, the person is gone."
Zheng Zhiyi then opened her eyes and raised her head.
"ah!"
