Chapter 111

Zhou Chenyu sat aside, as if he was infected by the pain, and asked him uncomfortably, "Does it hurt a lot?"

Yang Xi steadied her breathing, opened her eyes, forced a smile, and comforted her with her injuries, "For a catcher, injuries like this are just commonplace. I'm used to it."

"..." Zhou Chenyu waited for Yang Xi to calm down for a while and his face improved, then he took the cloth tape and put it on the wound, and tied it tightly for him.

After dealing with this, Zhou Chenyu turned around and walked outside the house, frowning in confusion:
"Captain, after all, it's just a job, so why do you work so hard?"

Zhou Chenyu walked outside and washed her hands, then sat where Baoyu had slept. The faint sound of dressing could be heard in the room, and she glanced at the gap between the wooden boards.

The man in the room frowned, his thin lips parted slightly, and beads of sweat rubbed against the bulging veins on his neck.

Zhou Chenyu suddenly withdrew his gaze, calmed down for a moment, and then couldn't help but look in, his cheeks getting hot as he looked at it.

She admitted that she didn't have a clear idea of ​​what he was thinking at the moment.

"Sister, sister, I'm bringing someone back! Open the door quickly!"

Baoyu's urgent knocking came from outside the door, and Huangdou ran to the door to greet him.

Yang Xi walked out, covering his shoulders, "Is someone coming?"

Zhou Chenyu smelled the smell of herbs on his body, and thought of the improper and crooked thoughts he had just had, he looked away guiltily and replied: "Yes...it's Baoyu's voice, I'll go and have a look."

She ran down the wooden stairs and ran towards the door.

As soon as the door opened, Baoyu stood outside the door with sweat, "Sister, the reinforcements are here."

Zhou Chenyu glanced at Baoyu up and down. He was very good, with sound limbs and no missing arms or legs. "Why are you back so soon? I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow morning at the earliest."

"Sister, I'm afraid that you are afraid of guarding Bantou Yang alone, and you dare not rest all the way. Sister, how is Bantou Yang? Everyone from the government office is here." Baoyu wiped his face at this moment, followed by four others A torch-lit headcatcher.

Zhou Chenyu recognized one of them, Xiao Qi, who often followed Yang Xi. He passed the red bean cake to her last time.

"Yang Xi has been awake for a while and just put some medicine on him." She opened the door and Xiao Qi saw the figure on the door. He dropped the torch and ran over. When he saw the injured master, he knelt down with his fists clenched and apologized with tears in his eyes.

"Master, Xiaoqi is late. If he hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have fallen off the cliff. It was my lack of martial arts that harmed him."

Yang Xi saw tears in Xiao Qi's bloodshot eyes and was slightly moved. But when he thought about the details, his face suddenly became gloomy again and he reprimanded:
"My injuries are not serious, why are you crying? As the head of the government and protecting the people, how can you cry when something happens? Otherwise, how can you achieve great things in the future?"

"Master taught me a lesson very well." Xiao Qi wiped away his tears and said after realizing his mistake: "Master, I brought three people to follow Baoyu up the mountain in advance. The doctor is still on the way and will be there in about half an hour. Why don't you Go back to the house and rest first.”

Yang Xi looked at the subordinates crowded in the courtyard. The fire was soaring into the sky, breaking the original silence. "I have been disturbing their siblings here for a long time. There is no need to wait. Let's go down the mountain now."

Xiao Qi was anxious, "Master, how is your injury?"

Yang Xi's cold eyes swept over him, his anger filled with undeniable severity, "Go down the mountain if I tell you to!"

Xiao Qi knew her master's temper well and did not dare to disobey, so she responded loudly: "Yes!"

Yang Xi took the blade and walked towards Baoyu, his stern look softened, "Baoyu, thank you for saving my life, Yang Xi." Baoyu touched his head and smiled innocently, "Boss Yang, last time you helped Huzi and I get our wages back. Well, I did all this as I should, you don’t have to thank me.”

Yang Xi smiled happily, looked at Zhou Chenyu, looked stern, and said in a deep voice: "Farewell."

Zhou Chenyu originally thought that the two of them would be alone for a night, but he didn't expect that the separation would come so quickly.

"Be careful on the road." She said in a daze, and saw them leaving overnight without looking back.

After leaving the wooden house, Yang Xi and his group walked down the mountain. Although it was night, the lit torches were enough to illuminate the path under their feet.

Yang Xi rubbed the handle of the knife. After a while, he looked at a few people and said coldly: "How many people know about their sister and brother saving me?"

Xiao Qi replied, "Master, the person Baoyu happened to meet when he came down the mountain was me. After I learned about this, I immediately found the governor, and then quickly brought a few people up the mountain."

Yang Xi's eyes darkened, "Don't publicize the fact that they rescued me. If word gets out, I'll take it out on you."

Xiao Qi didn't know, "Master, Brother Baoyu and Miss Chen Yu saved you. This is a good thing, why can't it be publicized to the outside world?"

The flickering firelight fell on Yang Xi's cheek, and worry overflowed from his cold eyes, "After Baoyu came down from the mountain, only Miss Zhou and I were alone. These things have made those long-tongued people listen, and they don't know how many ugly lies they have to make up." It's already difficult to save me, and we can't let others insult her honor anymore."

Xiao Qi smiled slightly, "I'm so stupid that I forgot all those gossips. Master is just master, and he is thoughtful in everything!"

Yang Xi pursed her thin lips and stopped talking.

After the light of the torch faded away, Baoyu sat down covering his sweat, and the nerves that had been tense all day were relaxed.

"Sister, Team Leader Yang is Team Leader Yang. Not only is he highly skilled in martial arts, but he also recovers from injuries faster than ordinary people. If the injury happened to me, I would have to lie down for ten and a half days."

Seeing Baoyu extremely excited, Zhou Chenyu felt an inexplicable sense of loss. He thought that if he could be alone with Yang Xi for one night, a lot of things could happen in one night.

But that disappointment only lasted for a few seconds, and he soon returned to his cunning nature.After all, the effect of getting along with each other in just half a day is much better than the previous stalking.

Zhou Chenyu raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "I can hug his thigh as I please from now on, right?"

The appearance and departure of Yang Xi was like a small episode, only breaking the short-term peace. After he left, the hunting trip of the two siblings returned to normal.

Zhou Chenyu stayed near the wooden house. In the morning, he first went to the mountain stream and put the fishing net in place. He then wandered around in the gap to catch some small prey such as pheasants and hares. In the afternoon, he slowly closed the net and cleaned the fish. , put it in the sun to dry.After staying there for ten days, I didn't catch many pheasants and rabbits, but I unknowingly weighed dozens of kilograms of dried fish.

Most of the live birds in the wooden house were caught by Baoyu, including more than a dozen pheasants and hares. Of course, the most valuable one was the wild mountain deer caught on the second day after entering the mountain.

The venison is scarce in quantity, the meat is fresh and tender, and it has the effect of warming the kidneys and strengthening yang. A live deer can be sold for one or two silver coins.

They went to the mountains in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival. They stayed there for more than ten days, which happened to coincide with the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. No matter they were wealthy families or ordinary people, they would buy some good things and prepare a table of wine and food for the festival. .

At this juncture, they transported the prey to the city to sell it, and the time was just right.
