On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Chapter 72 Entering the Mountain to Rescue People

Although people on both sides now live in Xiema Village, they have no communication with each other. They still recognize their own village chief.

The old village chief has been thinking for several days. He has no ability and is old. He is really not as good as others.

If you want the people in the village to live a good life, you have to be of the same mind as others.

Xiema Village can only have one village chief, and Ye Hongchang is more suitable to be this village chief than him.

Ye Hongchang said, "Does the village chief want me to succeed you?"

The old village chief nodded, "Brother Ye, if you have this ability, we must let you protect us, otherwise life will be difficult in the future. When you become the village chief, everyone will naturally listen to you."

Ye Hongchang thought to himself, this is really not necessarily true, just like in his own village, who would recognize the name of the village chief if he has no skills?

It's just that if he really wants to make Xiema Village better, everyone must be united. There can only be one village chief.

Ye Hongchang agreed, "Okay, I agree to this, but the village chief has to let those brothers accept this first. After that, they will all be from the same village, and I will naturally take them into the mountains with them."

When the old village chief heard this, he was overjoyed and said hurriedly, "Okay, okay, I will go back and tell them that I will go to the Yamen in a few days to report this matter. From now on, Brother Ye will be the village chief of Xiema Village." It’s grown.”

Wang asked the old village chief to stay for dinner, but he refused and thanked him very politely.

Ye Xiangxiang said, "Dad, do you want to be the village chief?"

Ye Hongchang nodded, "Well, let's do it. If this village wants to think well, it must have a leader. I will do my best to lead the way. If anyone is more capable in the future, I don't mind letting others be the leader."

There are many more people from Tongxin Village than the original villagers of Xiema Village. When the village gets better, it is beneficial to our own people.

If people on both sides remain so hostile, no one will be able to live well, and it is not a long-term solution.

Ye Xiangxiang recalled the looks of the young people in Xiema Village, "I always feel that this matter is not that easy."

On the other side, the old village chief told his own people about the matter after he returned.

Chen Youcai slammed the table in anger, "Why should he, a foreigner, be made the village chief? Our people in Xiema Village are not dead, so I won't do it."

The old village chief said, "Sit down for me. Why do you say that? Do you have anyone's ability?"

He glanced at the others, "They were right that day. If our people were capable, how could we have been bullied by horse thieves for so many years? Don't forget, if it weren't for these outsiders, we would still be in those shabby rooms. It’s nestled in the house.”

"One by one, how long have you been recovering? Have you forgotten everything? You are capable. Why didn't I see you standing up to drive away the bandits?"

Chen Youcai thought of Ye Hongchang's rescue of him that day and felt very humiliated.

"Hmph, why am I so incapable? It's just going into the mountains. It's fine without relying on him. I'll go into the mountains by myself tomorrow. If you're afraid, you can go and beg those outsiders. They're spineless."

He went out directly. The old village chief had no choice but to do this slowly.

As a result, Chen Youcai actually went into the mountains the next day. When his mother found out, her hands were trembling with fear, and she hurriedly went to the village chief for help.

A group of people were so anxious that Chen Youcai came back from the mountains carrying baskets of sweet potatoes. "Look, I can go into the mountains by myself. Who am I afraid of? Village chief, I don't recognize that person named Ye. Let him be the village chief. Why?" Why don't I do it?"

Everyone was dissatisfied at first, but when they saw that Chen Youcai had actually brought food back, they didn't want Ye Hongchang to be the village chief.

The old village chief had no choice but to put the matter on hold for now.

Ye Hongchang is not in a hurry. He has a lot to do anyway, so he can just take his time.

He took other people in the village into the mountains to look for mountain products. Every day they had a good harvest, and each family stored a lot of food for the winter.

Everyone was so happy. There are so many good things in the Yanshan Mountains, which are better than those in our hometown. Look at this big mountain. They just chose a road to walk. They can get back all these good things and travel all over the mountain. How can they not make a fortune?

It was getting late. Ye Hongchang led people down the mountain and suddenly saw a sheep running in front of him.

He hurriedly said, "Everyone, wait for me for a while and don't wander around."

After saying that, he hurried to chase the sheep.

Ye Xiangxiang was a little worried. It was getting dark, so he didn't want to run into any danger.

But the sheep ran slowly, and Ye Hongchang quickly caught up with it. An arrow pierced its throat, and the sheep immediately fell down.

The people in the village were all happy. They only knew that Ye Hongchang knew how to hunt. Today, it was the first time that they saw how he hunted. This was amazing.

Several people came over to help him and said with a smile, "Village Chief, your archery skills are so accurate, so awesome."

Ye Hongchang checked the sheep and smiled, "This sheep was bitten by a wolf and left the herd. That's why we encountered it. I'm afraid there are wolves around here. Let's go back first."

Upon hearing this, everyone did not dare to delay any longer and quickly helped to carry the sheep.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard movement under the cliff. Ye Hongchang looked back and saw a person lying underneath, looking up for help.

Who is that person if it's not Chen Youcai?

He had just shouted for help, but when he saw that the person looking over his head was Ye Hongchang, he immediately shut up, as if he felt very embarrassed.

"Hey, do you need help?" Ye Hongchang asked loudly.

Chen Youcai looked up at him and then looked away, "I'm fine, so you don't need to pretend to be kind."

"Okay then." Ye Hongchang stepped back and quickly poked his head out again, "But there may be wolves around here, so be careful. It's getting late. If you don't go down the mountain, you'll be in trouble."

Chen Youcai said nothing and did not even look at Ye Hongchang.

Everyone tied up the sheep and prepared to go down the mountain. When Chen Youcai heard the noise above getting farther and farther, he became panicked.

It was getting dark, and now that his leg was injured, he would definitely not be able to walk back by himself.

Even if his family members find out that he hasn't returned and come to look for him, they don't know when they will find him.

Chen Youcai regretted that he shouldn't have taken this road. He took a shortcut, but who knew he didn't see the road clearly and fell off the cliff.

He wanted to prove to the old village chief that he could enter the mountain. Who would have thought that something like this would happen after only two days in the mountain? God is really short-sighted.

When Ye Hongchang and his party returned to the village, the sheep were sent to Ye's yard. Ye Hongchang made arrangements and asked Ye Xiangxiang to prepare wound medicine, and he immediately went to the old village chief's house.

After a while, Chen Jiang and Yang Pingshun held torches and headed into the mountain to find someone. Unexpectedly, Ye Hongchang was already waiting by the mountain with someone.

Chen Jiang couldn't believe it, "You are..."

Ye Hongchang said, "Can you know where the person is? It's getting dark. Do you want to hurry up and find the person, or are you guessing my intentions here?"

Chen Jiang said quickly, "Thank you everyone for your help, and please lead the way."
