Chapter 76
"Don't run, the road is uneven, be careful of falling." Dai Qingyun hadn't climbed the mountain for a long time, and now he was panting after walking for six or seven minutes.

The back mountain is not big, and you can see the end at a glance. The path they are walking at this moment is also stepped on by the villagers for so many years. There are bushes on both sides, and there are some thorns.

The air in the mountains is very fresh, and you can hear the chirping of insects and birds from the mountains from time to time.

Going further in, the view blocked by the bushes widens a lot.

All kinds of unknown big trees stood tall and straight, and there were some wild fruit trees, all of which bore a lot of red fruits.

However, none of the villagers picked and ate so many bright red fruits, and they were not very tasty in comparison.

"Yun'er, hurry up, you'll be there if you walk a little further, I can already see someone over there." Dai Qingrong called her excitedly.

Sure enough, not far away, several girls were picking wild fruits with baskets on their shoulders.

Dai Qingyun took off the cocklebur on his body, and followed Dai Qingrong, "What kind of fruit did they pick? It looks quite delicious."

"I don't know, I'll ask." Dai Qingrong said and ran to the girls.

"It's a girl from the Dai family, why do you still want to come to the mountain?" A round-faced girl looked at Dai Qingrong and Dai Qingyun behind her with a smile.

"Sister Zhaodi, Sister Chunlan, and Sister Dahua." Dai Qingrong called several people one by one, "Yuner and I came to pick sand fruits today. Sister Dahua said that sand fruits are delicious and we came here."

Dai Qingrong's eyes lit up, pointing to them not far behind, "That must be Shaguo."

Dahua is 15 years old, the eldest daughter of Zhang Tuhu's family in the village. She said to Dai Qingrong with a hearty smile, "Yes, it's a good time to eat sand fruit."

The round-faced Zhao Di also nodded. Her family is also the daughter of the Ge family, one of several foreign surnames in Stone Village.

Dai Qingrong was confirmed, and without waiting for Yun'er to follow, she ran to pick the fruit, calling her to hurry up as she ran.

Dai Qingyun couldn't help but support his forehead, complaining about his poor physical fitness!

"Sister Yun'er, but you're not used to climbing mountains?" Another girl who looked gentler was Zhang Chunlan, the only girl in the village who was born as a child.

Dai Qingyun had met them a few times, but he was not familiar with them, so he also talked to them with a smile. Seeing the handkerchief Zhang Chunlan handed over, she took it with a smile, "Thank you Miss Chunlan, I haven't climbed the mountain for a long time, and I can't keep up with Rong'er." Miss."

Seeing her take her handkerchief, Zhang Chunlan smiled, "You're not like us, you often run into the mountains, it's normal that you're not used to it."

"Let's go, let's go, let's go pick some sago, and just taste the raspberries. If you eat too much, you will feel sour." Zhang Dahua has a cheerful personality, and he is very familiar with Dai Qingyun's arm, "There used to be something wrong here. Let's go, you support me."

"Yeah, don't sprain your feet, I'm worried when I see Rong'er running so fast." Ge Zhaodi smiled and glanced at Dai Qingyun's shoes, "Your shoes look expensive, next time you go up the mountain You can change a pair of coarse cloth, and you won’t feel bad if it’s broken.”

Although Dai Qingyun was a little defensive towards these people before, but seeing that they were only fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls, she didn't have much intellect, so she didn't think too much about it, and chatted with them with a smile.

Seeing them standing beside Dai Qingyun, Zhang Chunlan's face changed, and she quickly smiled and said, "Dai's family is rich, where are there shoes like coarse cloth, I can make a pair for my sister, tomorrow I'll send it to you."

"Sister Chunlan, don't spend money, I'll just let my mother do it." Dai Qingyun shook his head hastily.

Most people in Stone Village are not rich. Although they only have a pair of coarse cloth shoes, many people only have a pair of coarse cloth shoes. It is hot now, and most of the villagers are wearing straw sandals.

Zhang Chunlan didn't insist on listening, and nodded with a smile.

The four of them quickly walked to Dai Qingrong, who had already picked a lot of fruit, "What are you talking about, I've picked so many."

She proudly showed the bamboo basket to everyone.

Dai Qingyun reached out and took a few and started to eat.

Shaguo is very small, and you can feel the taste when you eat three or four together. It is sweet and sour, and the flesh is rustling. It is not bad to be used as an appetizer.

"Sister Rong'er has bald this fruit." Ge Zhaodi said heartlessly, giggling, "I'll pick it over there and see who picks more."

Zhang Dahua also chose a place to pick fruit, but sisters Zhang Chunlan and Dai Qingyun were still picking fruit here.

"I think both of you are gluttons, and you pick more than anyone else." Zhang Chunlan pursed her lips and smiled.

"Chunlan, hurry up and pick the raspberries, the loser will eat ten raspberries!" Zhang Dahua laughed, pinching the berries in his hands.

"Then I can't lose, Rong'er has picked so many." Ge Zhaodi used both hands to quickly pick the fruit.

Dai Qingrong hummed, "Then I won."

Zhang Chunlan looked at the few people who smiled and lowered their heads to pick the fruit.

Only Dai Qingyun stretched her waist and did not join their competition. The air in the mountains in the morning was fresh, and there were many plants she had never seen before. Occasionally, a few pheasants ran away.

Dai Qingyun picked up a thick wooden stick under the tree, and used it to poke the grass. It was the first time she came to the back mountain, and the more she walked, the more she found it fun. There is a litter of bunnies with bright eyes, so cute!
She quietly walked into the rabbit's nest, the baby rabbit hadn't opened its eyes yet, maybe the mother rabbit would have to go find something to eat, she squatted in front of the rabbit's nest, and didn't reach out to touch it, just looking at the cuteness of the rabbit and wanted to take a few more glances.

The place where she was standing was a slope. The big tree behind the rabbit nest supported the whole slope from below. She wanted to see if there were any other small animals below. Put half your head out and look down.

The bottom is full of invisible bushes and various wild flowers and weeds.

It really made Dai Qingyun see two pheasants looking for food.

She was watching it for fun, when she heard someone talking below.

Dai Qingyun was a little curious. There is no road down here. It seems that there should be snakes or something. How could there be people.

She stood up and hugged the tree trunk and looked down, and saw two men in black clothes, only the upper body was turned away from her, and they were holding long tools wrapped in black cloth, which looked like swords What.

Then I heard one of the men say, "The eldest prince really came to this village today? What's so good about this place where the birds don't shit."

"What do you know, the emperor specially asked him to check the ice cellar, the master said, let us lie in ambush first, and wait for them to come before we start."

Another man patted him on the head, still cursing.

"But Boss, we are on this mountain, what if there are snakes." The man on the left was beaten, feeling aggrieved.

"Shut up, and I'll deal with you first if you talk again." The man on the right looked at him speechlessly, and didn't know why the master sent him to follow him, he was so stupid and stupid!

Dai Qingyun at the top quickly retracted after hearing this, and quietly bent over to return the same way.

Her whole heart was beating non-stop, what the hell, she just came to see the scenery, and she could hear such a big secret!

It's really going to kill her, thinking that she has been living in a peaceful age, facing such beatings and killings, her life is like an ant, she is still not used to it.

She let out a long breath, but luckily the two of them didn't find themselves.

She walked up to Dai Qingrong, pretending to be uncomfortable and said to her, "Sister Rong'er, I'm not feeling well, let's go back first."

Before Rong'er could speak, Zhang Chunlan was startled, "What's the matter, it must be bitten by some insects, so lethargic."

"Oh, my face turned pale." Ge Zhaodi came over with a basket on his shoulders.

Zhang Dahua said quickly, "Let's send Miss Yun'er back first."

Dai Qingrong also nodded hastily, "Yun'er has not been healthy for a few days, she must be tired, let's go back."

Dai Qingyun was weakly supported by Zhang Dahua and the others. Fortunately, it was a little distance away from the bottom of the slope, so the two killers didn't notice them.

She couldn't imagine that if they saw her, they would wipe Rong'er and the others all over their necks. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.

Seeing her trembling, Dai Qingrong blamed herself even more, "It's all my fault, we shouldn't have come to the mountain."

"It's okay, just go back and rest for a while." Dai Qingyun looked at her self-blame, a little guilty, but for the sake of his own life, white lies can be forgiven.

Seeing this, the other three couldn't help but quicken their pace down the mountain.

Originally it took 10 minutes to go down the mountain, but it took them about [-] minutes to go down the mountain.

Several people sent Dai Qingyun and the two sisters home, and then they left in peace.

Zhang Chunlan also specifically told Li to check to see if there were any mosquito bites on her body, and she went home to get the ointment and it would be delivered.

Mrs. Li felt that this girl was sensible and thanked her repeatedly. Although Dai Qingyun was pretending, apart from being a little touched, she also wondered that Zhang Chunlan seemed to be very kind to her. Is it an illusion?

She was lying on the bed, and Lin was sitting beside her, with a serious face, "You know you are in good health, so what are you doing running so far?"

Dai Qingrong stood aside, with her head down, not daring to make a sound.

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I was wrong." Dai Qingyun took Lin's palm, and seeing Rong'er's aggrieved look, he felt amused and felt sorry for her, "Sister Rong'er, go to the kitchen and help my mother." Well, I have something to tell grandma."

Although her illness was cured, the medicated diet did not stop at all!

Dai Qingrong hurriedly said, "I'll go right away."

Lin looked at her helplessly, "I haven't trained her yet, so you dismissed her. Come on, what do you want to say?"

Dai Qingyun stood up, closed the door tightly, sat next to Lin again, and whispered to her what he had just discovered.

After hearing this, Lin was startled, she frowned, if the eldest prince was really assassinated, then the whole village might be implicated!
"Are you sure they said that the eldest prince is coming today?"

"It's absolutely true, otherwise I wouldn't have pretended to be ill and tricked them into coming down. If they found out, they would have had knives in their hands." Dai Qingyun was terrified after thinking about it.

At this moment, Lin felt that her back was covered in cold sweat. Indeed, the killer doesn't care whether you heard them or not, he would rather kill the wrong one than let it go.
