Chapter 22
Guo Xiu, who had been talking for half the afternoon, was thirsty. She drank a few sips of water, took a steamed bun and looked at the distant village and started eating.

Cao Shi looked at Guo Xiu who had finally calmed down and heaved a sigh of relief. If she kept talking, he would collapse. Terrible.He wiped the sweat off his face and quickly ate a cornbread; "Let's spend the night in this village tonight."

Guo Xiu was slightly startled when he heard this; "Are you sure? Is there any danger?"

"It's going to be dark soon. We can't go far even if we pass through this village. It rained a lot last night. It's too dangerous for us to drive in the dark at this time."

Guo Xiu didn't understand why it was dangerous for them to drive in the dark after a rain?
"Oh! Then shall we enter the village?"

"Of course you can't enter the village. Like the night before, you come with me."

Guo Xiu looked at Cao Shi who was walking towards the village, and hurriedly followed. The two came to a dilapidated small courtyard at the entrance of the village. Cao Shi bent slightly and whispered; "I'll go in first, open the courtyard door, Go around to the courtyard gate, remember not to let others see it."

Cao Shi saw Guo Xiu nodded and jumped into the courtyard.

Guo Xiu glanced around and quickly walked around to the gate of the courtyard, and was immediately pulled into the courtyard by Cao Shi.

"Hide here for a while, I'll go out for a while."

Guo Xiu reached out and grabbed him; "What are you going to do?"

"Take care of our footprints."

Guo Xiu heard that he let go of him, she looked at Cao Shi who had climbed over the wall, closed her eyes and consciously entered the space.She first glanced at the steamed buns piled up into a hill, then casually glanced at the mess she threw, and finally looked at her acre of land, waiting to see pomegranates, jujube trees, and apples covered with When the fruit came, she laughed, her consciousness returned to her body and she opened her eyes. After thinking for a while, she picked a few apples from the space and put them in the basket. Seeing that there were not many steamed buns in the basket, she took some more out, and then After filling the gourd with spring water, she squatted down carefully after finishing all this. After waiting for about an incense stick, she saw Cao Shi jumping in from the outside, and she stood up hastily.

Cao Shi quickly walked to her side; "Let's go!"

"Go? Don't you want to rest here?"

"This is the most dangerous place in the whole village. Of course we can't rest here. Let's go to the third house. In order not to let people in this village find out, I can only offend you." Cao Shi said as he hugged her shoulders. Waist, a few jumps have come to the third yard.

Guo Xiu covered her mouth and blinked her eyes. She looked at the man beside her and felt that all this was like a dream. She looked at the four-meter-high earthen wall and glanced at Cao Shi in admiration.

Cao Shi uncomfortably let go of the woman in his arms and went into the kitchen.

Guo Xiu followed and saw him digging quickly behind the stove, and within a short while she dug a plank. With the previous experience, she jumped in without his orders.

Cao Shi covered the wooden board and walked out of the kitchen carefully, cleaning up all the footprints outside before jumping into the hole.Since it was not completely dark yet, he lit a fire pocket.

Seeing that Cao Shi picked up a small wooden board in the hole by light, and then took out a small bundle from under the wooden board, she stepped forward curiously, and saw that there was a line of writing on the bottom of the door board. She saw clearly that Cao Shi reached out to destroy the characters, turned around and sat on the wooden board and opened the bundle.

Guo Xiu looked at the black bun in the bundle, subconsciously covered her teeth and sat down beside him; "Your friend left it for you?"

"It's brother!"

"Oh!"

Cao Shi took out a cornbread and put the rest into the basket.

Guo Xiu couldn't bear to look at Cao Shi who was eating the cornbread, so he took out half a steamed bun from his back basket and handed it to him; "I haven't thanked you for saving my life before."

Cao Shi took the steamed bun, glanced at her, and quickly ate it, while blowing out the fire bag.

Guo Xiu rubbed Gao Laodi's swollen knee, yawned and soon fell asleep.
