Chapter 16 Bitten by a Wild Boar

"Mo Qiubai, I might have to trouble you with something."

Walking along the road and asking questions along the way, some villagers said that they saw Xie Bai going up the mountain.

"I saw him go to the back mountain during the day today. He must be hunting?"

But Xie Bai had never hunted before and had no experience, so he was taking risks for no reason.

Xie Cheng became anxious: "Then can you tell me where the back mountain is?"

Hearing this, the villagers looked a little surprised: "Didn't you go there often before?"

What does she often go there for?

Seeing Xie Cheng's puzzled face, Mo Qiubai quickly stood in front of her.

"She stayed in the city before, and it's normal to forget the road to the back mountain. Xie Cheng, I'll take you there."

Xie Cheng nodded at these words, since someone took him with him, why did he refuse.

The two went up to the back mountain together, dense vegetation grew on it, the towering trees blocked the sunlight that came in, the air inside was extremely humid, and the soil on the ground was also unbelievably soft. Likely to roll down the hill.

After a while, Xie Cheng's face turned red, she was really tired.

Hearing the panting sound behind his ears, Mo Qiubai suddenly squatted down.

"Can I do it? If I can't, let me carry you on my back?"

Looking at the generous back in front of him, Xie Cheng's eyes flashed a trace of surprise and unnaturalness.

Isn't this Mo Qiubai too generous?Xie Cheng was very moved that he was able to carry her up the mountain regardless of previous suspicions.

"No, thank you, it's just exercise."

Her strength suddenly recovered, and her walking was like a breeze.

The two gradually opened up the distance, and Mo Qiubai, who stayed in place, hurriedly chased after him.

"Xie Bo, where are you? If you can hear me, please respond quickly."

This back mountain is very big. They walked for a long time, but they didn't even reach half of it, and their muscles became sore. Xie Cheng couldn't bear it anymore, so she found a stone and sat down. She took out the silver from her pocket. The needle, without the slightest hesitation, stuck directly into the knee.

This scene made Mo Qiu's scalp tingle.

"Aren't you in pain?"

It hurts, but she is used to it, Xie Cheng smiled at Mo Qiubai: "It's okay, do you want to get some needles? This can relieve muscle soreness."

Seeing the tip of the needle, Mo Qiubai subconsciously shook his head.

"No, thank you, I used to go up the mountain to cut firewood, and I'm used to it."

Hearing that he was evading, Xie Cheng didn't speak anymore, and she put away the silver needle.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the two headed for a deeper place. The further they went, the weaker the light source became, and the surrounding area was gloomy.

Although the back mountain is very large and the supplies are abundant, but because there are very few people hunting, not many people come here.

After shouting for a long time, but did not hear anyone's response, Xie Cheng's uneasiness became more and more intense.

"It's not really going to happen, is it?"

But in the original owner's memory, Xie Bai didn't have any major incidents. He just suffered from a few minor illnesses, and the doctor easily settled them. Now that she has traveled through time, did the butterfly effect happen?

Looking at Xie Cheng's expression, Mo Qiubai touched his nose.

"Don't worry, your brother will definitely be fine."

Hearing this, Xie Cheng nodded. She wasn't too worried at first, even if she really lost half her life, she could still save him.

Time soon came to the evening, Xie Cheng was out of breath, and the water bottle brought by the two was already empty.

"Why don't you rest here, I'll go find him alone."

Hearing this, Xie Cheng shook his head. After all, Xie Bai is also her second brother, so how could he let Mo Qiubai look for it alone?
This back mountain is really too dangerous, what if there are wild beasts, the two of them can help each other a little bit together.

"Don't make trouble, I won't rest, I will follow you to find someone now, the soil is so soft, you can always find footprints, right?"

She didn't believe it anymore, how could she not find any clues, unless it was deliberately hidden, but Xie Cheng didn't have such an enemy either.

Seeing the resolute expression on Xie Cheng's face, Mo Qiubai's heart skipped a beat suddenly, as if he didn't know the woman in front of him a little bit.

Xie Cheng's previous emotions were all written on her face, allowing people to see through her thoughts at a glance.

But now she...although she always has a smile on her face, it looks more like a mask.

……

A cave.

Xie Bai curled up and hid inside. He didn't dare to move at all now, and there was the sound of wild boars outside.

"Why am I so unlucky, I ran into a wild boar as soon as I came here."

It also grew two hard fangs.

He originally planned to come to Houshan to hunt down rabbits and deer, sell them in the town, and exchange the money for some rice noodles to return to Xie Cheng, but now he is self-defeating. The people inside knew that they would definitely scold him, but Xie Cheng still didn't know how to laugh at him and insult him.

The calf was bitten by the wild boar, and the severe pain made Xie Bai's mouth shut tighter. He can't make a sound now, otherwise he will attract the attention of the wild boar.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and Xie Baixi smiled.

"Is there anyone, hurry up and save me."

God knows how long he has been waiting in this cave, but the sun's light is getting weaker and thinner.

Xie Bo shook his feet and walked forward impatiently, only to see a woman appearing at the entrance of the cave against the light, holding a wooden stick in her hand.

"Second brother, is that you?"

The light source in this cave was too weak, Xie Cheng who was standing outside couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, so she could only ask tentatively.

After hearing the familiar voice, Xie Bo suddenly didn't want to talk anymore, he was very embarrassed now.

Not getting a response, Xie Cheng asked the question again.

"Second brother, is it you? If not, I'll leave. It's already very late in the sky, and more beasts will come out of the mountain later."

Xie Cheng made a gesture to leave, but Xie Bo rushed out, limping, and grabbed her sleeve.

"Don't go, I'm scared alone."

His eye sockets suddenly turned red, and in the end, it was Xie Cheng who found him.

Xie Cheng's eyes narrowed due to the smell of blood in the air.

"You are hurt?"

Hearing this, Xie Bai clenched his lips.

"Don't worry, it's just a wild boar bite."

This tone is really too relaxed, as if it was just bitten by that mosquito.

Xie Cheng didn't speak.
