Chapter 12: Children Crying at Night
She walked briskly, holding back the headache caused by excessive use of clairvoyance today, and excitedly scanned the surrounding soil, trying to find the land with the most moisture.
That must be where the mountain spring water comes in.
She ran excitedly on the rugged path and nearly fell several times, which made Yuchi Shuo's heart shake in the dark.
Finally, she found water on the edge of a steep cliff!
A tiny hole!
She climbed up along the hole in the net and found a large pool of clear water on the halfway point of the cliff!
All the water flows from here, and it flows continuously.
Seeing this scene, she no longer hesitated.
"I must go back and bring them here immediately!"
She turned and ran.
When Yuchi Shuo followed her all the way here, he knew that she couldn't find her way back.
Therefore, he consciously made marks on the tree behind her to ensure that she could see it clearly when she returned.
The result did not disappoint Yuchi Shuo. Gu Feixue indeed found the knife marks he left on the tree.
Yuchi Shuo led her all the way back to the camp in the heart of the mountains, and then used light skills to arrive at the front in advance, constantly leaving traces.
Yuchi Shuo led Gu Feixue all the way back to the place where she fainted, which was only half an hour away from Gu Feixue's way home.
When Gu Feixue saw the traces of her past, she already knew how to go back.
At this time, the mark that should have been on the big tree on the roadside also disappeared.
Gu Feixue suddenly turned around and looked at the forest behind her. Although she couldn't see anything, she knew that someone was guiding her.
These road signs carved on the trees are fresh traces, which means that someone has been secretly guiding her. This must be the person who saved her.
Gu Feixue shouted with gratitude in her heart: "Thank you! Yuchi Shuo!"
"After I get through this famine and turn things around, I'll grant you whatever you want when we meet again!"
This childish voice was like a clear mountain spring, which made Yuchi Shuo's heart tremble.
He stood on the top of the tree with his arms folded, looking at the lovely girl through the gaps between the branches, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curved into a beautiful arc.
Hearing Gu Feixue calling out his name, Yuchi Shuo felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He hadn't heard anyone call him by that name for a long time.
Normally people call him His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or the Ninth Prince.
Even he himself almost forgot that his name was Yuchi Shuo, but he didn't expect to hear someone calling him by that name today.
Gu Feixue left a mark in his heart, and he inexplicably wanted to hear Gu Feixue call his name a few more times.
However, Gu Feixue had already run away at this time.
Yuchi Shuo tracked her all the way and escorted her back home. He was relieved to see that she was reunited with her family.
He originally wanted to take a closer look at Gu Feixue, but a jackdaw flew across the sky, which was the signal to gather.
Yuchi Shuo looked at Gu Feixue deeply before turning and leaving.
Just as he left, Gu Feixue suddenly turned around and looked.
For some reason, just at that moment, Gu Feixue felt that the pair of eyes that had been staring at her had left.
At this time, he hugged her tightly and scolded her mother Wang.
She had already cried so hard that she couldn't speak, and her eyes were red.
"Xue'er! Why are you running around? Do you know that your mother is scared to death by you?"
"Who told you to go out alone? Do you know what time it is? It's already dark!"
"What would you do if you encountered refugees who were starving on the road?"
"Your father and your eldest brother have gone out to look for you, and they haven't come back yet."
"If anything happens to them, how will I live?"
"I told you not to be obedient, I told you not to be obedient!"
Wang was so angry that she fainted three or four times before she came back.
So when they met, he was anxious and angry, and slapped her several times.
But they are all mild and not painful.
Gu Feixue looked at her mother's haggard appearance, hugged her neck with heartache, and coaxed her gently.
"I'm sorry, mother. I was really hungry, so I ran out to find something to eat."
"But I've found a large field of sweet potatoes, and there's also mountain spring water!"
"I'm telling you something in secret..."
Gu Feixue was very smart and didn't make too much noise. She didn't want everyone to know.
After hearing what Gu Feixue said, Wang frowned slightly.
Just as she was undecided, she suddenly heard two voices, one old and one young, behind her.
"Xue'er!"
Hearing the voice, Wang and Gu Feixue turned around and saw Gu Lang and Gu Tingchuan.
"Daddy! Big brother!" Gu Feixue ran towards them excitedly.
But the first thing he got was reproachful looks and words of blame.
Gu Lang grabbed her arms tightly and shook them: "Xue'er! Where did you go? Why did you leave without telling us anything?"
"Do you know how worried we are about you?!"
Gu Lang's strong and deep voice was really scary.
But Gu Feixue knew that her father was very anxious, and she stared at him with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry... Daddy... I was really hungry, so I went out to find something to eat."
Looking at her aggrieved little face, how could Gu Lang still have the heart to blame her?
In the end, the family hugged her tightly and no one blamed her anymore.
At this time, Hui Niang, who had just woken up, yawned and looked over here. She frowned slightly, annoyed by their movements.
"Why didn't he die outside?" Hui Niang muttered softly.
Just at this moment, Gu Feixue looked in her direction.
Hui Niang suddenly became kind-hearted and ran over with a sad face.
"Xue'er! Why did you come back just now? We were so worried!"
Hui Niang rushed towards her little body and wanted to hug her.
Gu Feixue dodged with a look of disgust and said coldly: "Hurry up and wipe the eye boogers from the corners of your eyes. Don't touch me when you just woke up."
Hui Niang just stood there in a daze.
After a moment, he suddenly realized that his acting had been discovered.
She smiled sweetly and made an excuse for herself: "Although I didn't go out to look for you, I was also anxious in my heart."
"If everyone leaves, who will stay to take care of the old lady?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Hui Niang was hit on the head with a crutch.
Hui Niang screamed in pain and looked back, only to find that it was the old lady glaring at her.
The old lady glared at her, and through her cracked lips she slowly roared, "Shameless thing!"
