The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad
Chapter 297 Discovering Strangers
Following the markings on the map, the journey became smoother and smoother. Yin Yusheng destroyed six mechanisms in a row, and no one was injured as happened in the previous times.
The trouble-making Lin Dahai became much more obedient. He lay on Tang Zhongbai's back and groaned in pain, but he never cursed anyone again.
He must be really scared.
Going further, they gradually walked onto a mountain road. The mountain made their movements more difficult than on a flat road. The trees on the mountain were still dense, and the pear trees had larger fruits than those at the foot of the mountain. The fallen leaves and rotten fruits that had accumulated over the years were piled up layer by layer on the ground, making them walk slowly, with one foot deep and one foot shallow. If they were not careful, they would fall into a trap.
They had no choice but to pick up a branch and move forward while exploring the way, and their movements were much slower.
Jiang Muxia was puzzled. Why didn't they plant any other trees on the mountain? Why did they choose to plant pear trees? They would produce so many fruits. Could they eat them all?
Is it just to commemorate one person?
Seeing everyone suffering from the mountain road, Yin Yusheng shouted: "Everyone hold on a little longer, the front is the Gen position, the life gate. This may be the last level, hope is just around the corner, everyone cheer up."
At this time, the moonlight was as big as a silver basin and as bright as daylight. It fell on the ground, making the shadows of trees and people merge together.
Jiang Muxia walked at the end of the team, listening to the rustling sound of leaves in the breeze. She was always alert, so she slowed down her pace, held her breath and listened to the movements around her.
Behind her, there were faint footsteps as light as floating dust, and she was sure that someone was following them.
Who is it?
She put her hands on her waist and slowed down her pace, waiting for the person behind her to appear so that she could kill him with one blow.
Unexpectedly, she slowed down her pace and the sound behind her simply stopped moving.
She was startled. This person was quite alert. She patted her clothes, straightened them, pretended to be calm, and quickened her pace.
Sure enough, just as she quickened her pace, she heard light footsteps behind her.
Jiang Muxia sneered secretly. No matter who you are today, if you dare to plot against us, I will chop off your head.
As she walked, she judged the distance between the footsteps and herself. She didn't like the feeling of being secretly monitored, which made her feel uncomfortable. It was like a foreign object fell into her eye, and if she didn't take it out, the whole eye would be blind.
But the person behind her was like her shadow. When she walked, she walked too. When she stopped, she stopped too.
Jiang Muxia made up his mind. It seemed that the only thing he had to compete with him in was speed.
As long as she was fast enough, she could catch him before he could escape.
She put her hands back to her waist, and after determining that the footsteps behind her were within three feet of her, she tapped the ground with her toes and leaped over. A dark shadow in the pear bush behind her saw this and ran in the opposite direction.
She quickened her pace and swung the whip in her hand. Jiang Hongxin, who was walking not far ahead of her, heard the noise and ran over with a knife in hand.
Jiang Muxia moved very quickly and swung the whip, only to see the tip of the whip wrapped around the waist of the black shadow, but he dodged it by turning around.
He did not try to fight back. Judging from his shadow, he was of medium height, thin, with disheveled hair. As the two men chased him, he quickly dodged and ran down the mountain.
The two were afraid of running into a trap so they did not dare to be careless and could only follow the route of the black shadow.
There are not only pear trees at the foot of the mountain, but also weeds so deep that you can't see a person. From time to time, a few pheasants are startled and fly out of the weeds, flapping their wings.
The man seemed to have lost all his strength after being chased by them. He ran to a flat ground and finally stopped.
The three of them were facing each other. The man was so tired that he bent over and gasped. Jiang Muxia swung out the whip and entangled the man, but was surprised that he had no intention of resisting at all.
The man sat down on the ground, raised his hands to admit defeat, and panted, "I lost, please let me go. I just want to go into the villa with you."
At this time, Tang Zhongbai also rushed over, put the long sword in his hand on the man's neck, and shouted: "Who are you? Why are you following us?"
The man pulled his hair apart. He was about forty years old, with a weathered face. His face was shiny black, and his eyes were gray and lifeless. His clothes were in tatters, and he looked like a savage.
He looked like he had been on the island for a long time. Could it be that he was here to ask Mr. Chu to come out of retirement, just like them?
"My name is Feng Baichuan, and I've been on the island for three years. My daughter got a strange disease, so I came to the island to ask him to come out and treat her." He suddenly covered his face and cried, "Who knew that I couldn't even get in the door, couldn't invite him in, and couldn't leave. It's been three years, and I don't know if my daughter is still alive..."
He sobbed sadly. Tang Zhongbai retracted his sword and his expression softened.
"It's been three years, and you haven't seen anyone on the island?"
"Not really. Every time the pears are harvested, some people come to the island to pick the pears. I can't understand their language. I fought with them, but they were no match for me, so they ran away."
Tang Zhongbai looked at Jiang Muxia, and they both knew tacitly that the person he was talking about was a Japanese.
"Uncle, from what you said, you are from Chenliu County, right? Do you want to go home?" Tang Zhongbai asked.
"I do. I dream about it. Can you take me home?" Feng Baichuan wiped away his tears, his eyes full of hope.
"Come with me." Jiang Muxia said.
She asked him casually, "Uncle, how have you lived for the past three years?"
In addition to pears, there were also some wild animals on the island. He was able to survive for three years relying on fruits and wild animals, which was a sign of his strong will.
"There is a cave over there. Whenever the fruits are ripe, I save some of them and catch some wild animals and fish. That's how I managed to survive until now. Now that I see you, I can finally see the light of day again." Feng Baichuan said with emotion.
Halfway through the walk, Feng Baichuan suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no! I just saved a man who is still in the cave. He is about eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate eyebrows and a long sword in his hand. Is he one of yours?"
"Tang Si. Was he saved by you? How is he?" After hearing that he saved a person, Tang Zhongbai calmed down. As long as Tang Si was still alive, it was fine.
"He was injured, but it's nothing serious."
"Okay, let him rest, and we'll pick him up after we enter the villa."
Yin Yusheng has reached the Gen position, the highest point of the mountain. Even with the help of moonlight, Yin Yusheng still cannot find the mechanism marked on the map.
He became nervous. As far as he knew, only in a place of death would there be no traps. Are they going to die here?
Fu Zi saw that his brows were furrowed and ran over to ask.
Yin Yusheng just shook his head. He didn't find anything according to the location marked on the map. He searched all around but didn't find any clues.
He had no choice but to turn his attention to Zhang Yi, hoping to get a satisfactory answer from him.
To his disappointment, Zhang Yi closed his eyes and looked very tired. He said only a few simple words and then fell asleep leaning against a tree.
He said, "Everything is God's will. What is meant to come will come. Just let it go."
No one understood what he meant. Was he asking them to wait here?
Fuzi wanted to wake him up and ask him clearly, but was stopped by Yin Yusheng. If they really wanted to talk, they would not say anything unclear.
"Forget it, let's discuss it after your young master comes back and make a decision."
