Chapter 29
Bai Xu supported a tree and walked down. Her feet were covered with thick mud and slippery. She frowned irritably.

She never wanted to go into the mountains again.

The rescue team walked at a moderate speed in order to meet the donkey friends. Bai Xu looked at their pace and estimated that they would not be able to go down the mountain even after dark.

She took a long breath and tried to hold it back.

Huo Yi noticed her strangeness, and his thick black sword eyebrows were lightly drawn.

"What's the matter?" He came to Bai Xu's side and looked her over, fearing that she might feel uncomfortable.

Bai Xu sighed in his heart, but still told him the reason, "It's too slow to walk."

She really wanted to go back and lie on her bed and sleep soundly.

Huo Yi looked at the rescue team in front of him. He actually felt the same way, but it would definitely be difficult to walk with a few friends who were physically weak.

He thought for a while, and after speaking to the last member of the rescue team, the two moved to the front and disappeared in a flash.

"Hey, do you think we're too slow?"

"That's not true, but the two of them are physically strong enough. It's as easy as going up and down the mountain to eat and drink."

"Sorry to bother you."

"Don't say sorry now, let's talk after we get down the mountain."

"You young people, if you are not ready in the future, don't go up the mountain."

When the chattering words came from behind, Bai Xu didn't take it seriously, just paid attention to the steps under her feet, and kept walking down.

When it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Xu and Huo Yi could already see the edge of the village.

The two sat by the creek to rest, and the rescue team behind them didn't know how far they were thrown away.

He picked up the stream water and wiped his face, and the heat on his body dissipated a little.

The weather in the past few days is really weird. Yesterday it rained heavily and today it was sunny. Bai Xu looked at the bright sun above her head, and her body was already soaked in sweat. She smelled her clothes and felt that she was about to stink.

"It's so boring! How come it smells like a human being? Why don't you take a bite and play with it?" Baixu froze for a moment as she wiped her sweaty hands. When she heard a clear voice next to her ear, her eyes flashed doubt.

this voice...

She looked around with her eyes, and her eyes were locked behind a stone. A long snake with a black-brown back poked its head out from the gap in the stone, spitting snake letters, and looked around.

The snake was only about one meter away from Huo Yi's body, just behind his back.

Huo Yi was squatting by the stream to wash his face, but he didn't notice any abnormality, Bai Xu swallowed, and moved over cautiously.

"There are two people, who should I bite?" The black snake looked small, but it had a long body, and raised its head to look around.

Huo Yi's ears twitched as he uttered the letter in black threads, and his body tensed up a little.

Hearing the words in Hei Snake's heart, Bai Xu's eyes widened, and her heart trembled twice.

"He smells so weird, bite him."

With that said, the black snake got ready, locked on to the target, and ejected violently.

Seeing this, Baixu kicked the flying black snake away with one kick, and the precise kick made the black snake let out a scream.

"Ah! Grandma, here I come!"

The black snake leaped into the water and fell into the water without moving.

"Xiaobai!" Huo Yi looked at the flying black snake, and quickly stood up and looked behind him.

Behind him, Bai Xu breathed a sigh of relief, her legs were shaking.

"I...I just saw this snake behind you."

She was afraid that Huo Yi would disturb the snake, so she didn't call him.

But it's okay now.

Huo Yi looked at the snake in the water, then at the little woman with a pale face in front of him, and nodded to her, "Good job."

He is still looking for the location of the snake, it seems that he should be more careful next time.

Bai Xu blinked her eyes, and just when she was about to sit down and rest, accidents always came unexpectedly.

"Husband, I will avenge you!"

Before she could sit down, another little black snake sprang out from the crevice of the stone. With a sharp scream, Baixu's leg hurt and her expression changed suddenly.

"Hiss!" She grunted, clenching her teeth.

Huo Yi looked down, and saw a black snake was about to slip away from the crevice of the stone. He quickly squatted down, grabbed the snake's tail, and pulled the snake out.

He grabbed the snake's head seven inches away, his heart beating wildly. Fortunately, after confirming that it was only a non-venomous snake, his tense nerves relaxed a lot.

After knocking the snake unconscious and throwing it aside, he supported Bai Xu to sit down carefully, "Xiao Bai, don't be afraid, it's a non-poisonous snake."

Bai Xu held his forehead, but felt some pain in his legs, but not very painful.

Good guy, it's still a snake haunted by a couple. As expected of Daqi Mountain, there are snakes and insects everywhere.

"Does it hurt? Let me look at the wound for you."

Huo Yi squatted in front of her, saw that there was faint sweat oozing from her forehead, reached out to take off her shoes, rolled up her trouser legs, and wanted to check the wound.

Bai Xu shook her head, "It's okay."

Rolling up the trouser legs, an obvious tooth mark appeared in the middle of the white and tender calf, and the area around the bitten wound was slightly red.

Huo Yi looked around, it wasn't very good to wash with stream water, but they had run out of water.

Although there is nothing serious about the bite of a non-venomous snake, there is no guarantee that the wound will not swell and hurt.

"Sit down, I'll look for herbs nearby."

Generally, where there are snakes, there are detoxifying grasses, Huo Yi put her legs on the stone, got up and rummaged in the grass cage behind.

While he was looking for herbs, Bai Xu took some spiritual spring water from the space to wash the wound, and then sat quietly on the stone.

Huo Yi quickly found two kinds of herbs, one for anti-inflammatory and analgesic and the other for removing snake venom. After washing the herbs in the stream, he rubbed them into pieces in his hands and applied them to Baixu's wound.

"Hmm~" Bai Xu bit her lip and snorted, covering her face, forcing herself not to scream.

Pain!

It's okay if you don't touch it, but it hurts when you touch it.

"Be patient, you'll be fine soon." Huo Yi couldn't bear to see her in pain, and his hands that were holding her calves tightened.

Looking at the color of her calf which was clearly different from the skin on his hands, Huo Yi thought to himself that she really wasn't suitable for staying in the village.

Years of exposure to wind and sun will make her skin wrinkled and vicissitudes. She should be a rose growing in a greenhouse and will always be carefully cared for.

Bai Xu sat on the stone, stroked her hair, and tied it on the back of her head indiscriminately. The hot temperature on her calf made her feel itchy.

Seeing the man with an erratic expression and not knowing what he was thinking, she calmly looked at his appearance.

She had always made up his appearance before, and hadn't observed him seriously at all, after all, the two of them had very little communication.

Looking at him today, I found that he actually looks really good, with star eyebrows and sharp eyes, deep eye sockets, a straight nose bridge, and clear facial features, especially the wide and smooth jaw line, which can show his masculinity even more when he is not talking.

Just adding his excessively sharp inch-cut head makes him look a little more aggressive, and when placed on the curb, people can avoid it.

"Okay!" Huo Yi tore a piece of cloth from nowhere to wrap the wound and the herbs together, then slowly lowered her trouser legs, and put on her shoes.

Bai Xu withdrew her gaze, felt the wound, and found that it didn't hurt much anymore.

"Thank you, Brother Huo."

Huo Yi shook his head, saying thank you or not, if she hadn't discovered the snake first, he would have been bitten, he should thank her.

Suffered a disaster for him.

"Can you still go?"

Baixu stood up, put the bag on her back, took a few steps forward, and nodded slightly.

That's right, after walking for a while, the speed was obviously slowed down, sweat was all over Baixu's forehead, and her little face was also pale.

Huo Yi stopped, his eyes were anxious and distressed, "Don't go, I will carry you."

He wanted to carry her on the back just now, but he was afraid that she would think he was making a fuss out of a molehill. If he had known, he would have carried her on the back just now.

"No, no, I can do it." Bai Xu quickly waved her hand, forced a smile, stopped and took a breath.

The mountain wind was violent and hot, she wiped the sweat off her face, not wanting to bother him all the time.

"Come on, don't delay your time to go down the mountain."

Huo Yi hung the bag on his chest, squatted down in front of her, his voice was clear and crisp.

Bai Xu looked at his strong and broad back, her face became hot, but she really didn't want him to carry it down the mountain.

"I'm too heavy. How about you go down the mountain first, and I'll walk slowly."

There is still more than an hour to go down the mountain from here. With her physique, don't crush him.

Huo Yi turned to look at her, his face was calm, and he spoke firmly to her.

"Do you think I can rest assured that you go down the mountain alone? I know you don't want to trouble me, or you can treat me to a meal and thank you when you go back."

"Okay." It's all said for this sake, if she refuses again, it will be a bit hypocritical.

Bai Xu squatted down and slowly lay on his back. When Huo Yi got up, his center of gravity was slightly unsteady, so scared that Bai Xu quickly hugged his neck.

Huo Yi hugged her thigh, and walked forward steadily, with a slight smile in his eyes.

The mountain road is rugged, even if Huo Yi wants to avoid bumps, it is a bit difficult.

A strand of hair was hanging down his neck, and Huo Yi's nose was dripping with sweat. Enduring the itching, he looked forward.

Feeling that the person behind her slipped a lot, Huo Yi hugged her up again.

"Brother Huo, why don't you let me come down?" Bai Xu was shaken so drowsily that her eyelids became heavy, but she couldn't bear to see Huo Yi going over mountains and carrying her on his back.

Huo Yi shook his head, and said calmly, "You and I can still carry one by one."

Bai Xu pursed her lips and said softly, "But you are too tired."

"Not tired. You are very light." Huo Yi is really not tired, his physical strength has always been excellent, and now most of them are going down the mountain, so it is no problem to carry her on his back.

"I'm still light? Haven't you ever carried someone else's back?"

Bai Xu curled her lips, she weighed more than 100 catties anyway, and there was flesh everywhere on her body, so how light could she be?

Huo Yi smiled, the speed of his feet was no slower than before, and there was a layer of joy in his eyes.

"A girl has only carried you on her back. In comparison, you are really light."

Bai Xu squeezed her face, and said depressedly, "I feel like I've gained a few pounds when I go home."

Her mother's craftsmanship is really good, and she can eat two big bowls of rice every day.

"It doesn't matter whether it's serious or not, as long as you're healthy." Huo Yi didn't feel that she was getting fat, and she still looked slim and slender.

Bai Xu agreed with this sentence and nodded slightly.

She pinned the fallen hair behind her ears, and continued to lie on Huo Yi's shoulder, looking drowsy, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

A shallow warm breath sprayed on Huo Yi's neck, and when he looked sideways, he caught a glimpse of her peaceful sleeping face, with the corners of her mouth slightly hooked.

As the road widened and the village was in sight, Huo Yi felt the sleeping figure move behind him. He was about to wake her up when he realized that Bai Xu's arms were tightening around his neck, and he muttered something , and then rubbed his lips against his neck.

...A current flowed from his fingernails to his hair, Huo Yi's face flushed, if he hadn't been hugging her, he probably didn't know where to put his hands.

Taking a deep breath, Huo Yi forcibly endured it again and again.

It's just that he has endured so many times, and he is going to go crazy with a breath of depression in his chest.

Huo Yi thought silently for a long time, he will never be a third party for love, he must stand by her side in an open and above board manner.

She hasn't broken up yet, and he can't meddle in other people's feelings.

However, not breaking up now does not mean that there will be no breaking up in the future.

He had to find the group of "husbands and dogs" to give him advice.

When they reached Nanshan, there was no one around, Huo Yi woke Bai Xu up and put her down.

"Can you go back by yourself? I'll go to the village chief and tell him."

Looking at Bai Xu's cute face, he felt soft in his heart, but it was a pity that he couldn't carry her to the door of his house.

"Yes." After Bai Xu stood up, she rubbed her cheeks and nodded to him.

Huo Yi resisted the hand that wanted to touch her head, and spoke softly.

"Okay, then go back quickly, and contact Feixin if you need anything."

"Okay, thank you Brother Huo." Bai Xu waved at him and walked home in small steps.

Back home, Bai Xu pushed the door open and entered, feeling the urge to drink water, and called out, "Dad, Mom."

No one responded to her, so Bai Xu walked into the kitchen and sat down. After confirming that there was no one there, she quickly poured herself a glass of spiritual spring water and poured it into her mouth.

She was dying of thirst. She drank a sip of water this morning and has not drank any water until now.

After drinking two glasses of water in a row, Bai Xu put down the glass and hiccupped, finally feeling better.

"Xiaobai!" Liu Xiao's voice appeared at the door.

Bai Xu stood up and walked to the yard, "Mom, where have you been?"

Liu Xiao was carrying a basket with vegetables like eggplant and pepper in it, and he showed it to her and said with a smile.

"I went to Aunt Li's house next door to pick some vegetables."

She said that she seemed to be looking at her daughter's figure, so she hurried back to take a look.

She put down the basket, looked at her dirty daughter, and shook her head helplessly, "How are the people on the mountain?"

"It's okay, I've been rescued." Bai Xu fanned the wind, followed her eyes to look down, and gasped twice.

"Mom, I'm going to take a shower and wash my hair, and I'll come down later."

It's so dirty, she can't stand it...

Liu Xiao nodded, watched her rush upstairs, and yelled after her.

"Okay, take the clothes down and mom will wash them for you."

Bai Xu took the clean clothes, got into the bathroom as quickly as possible, and turned on the shower.
