Treasure Hunt of the Cute Baby with Cunning Eyes in XNUMXs

Chapter 17

Li Ying opened her small satchel. There were five fruit candies, a box of matches, two cents, and a few playing cards in the bag.

Li Ying picked up a candy, peeled off the candy wrapper, stuffed the candy into her mouth, stuffed the candy wrapper into her bag, and sat down against the mountain wall.

"Tick-tock-tock" a soft sound came into Li Ying's ears. This should be the sound of water dripping on the ground.

Li Ying immediately sat up straight and looked for the sound. The sound came from inside the cave. The entrance was a little small. If Li Ying wanted to go in, she could only bend down to get in.

Li Ying licked her dry lips, touched her hungry belly, and plucked up the courage to walk towards the entrance.

The entrance was very dark. Li Ying held on to the stone wall, groping step by step, and slowly walked towards the place where the sound of water dripping was heard. The further she walked in, the darker she became. Li Ying's heart was in her throat, she was like a The blind man walked inside based on instinct.

In the darkness, Li Ying could only hear her own heartbeat and breathing. The suffocating fear struck every nerve in her body, making her almost unable to help but walk back.

But she can't. She can only find food and drink on her own now, otherwise she will die of thirst or starvation.

She doesn't want to die!

She wants to live and go home alive!

Li Ying groped forward in the darkness. With every step she took, she mustered up the courage to step out. As if a century had passed, a glimmer of light appeared in front of her. Li Ying was so delighted that she couldn't help but speed up by two minutes. .

The front gradually became wider, the light became brighter and brighter, and bright stones came into Li Ying's eyes. She heard from her grandfather that there was a kind of stone in the cave called a stalactite, which glowed. This should be a stalactite.

Li Ying reached out and touched the stalactite. It was so beautiful!
It would be great if I could take it home!
The sound of "tick-tock-tick" clearly reached Li Ying's ears. Li Ying walked towards the sound and saw water-white milky white stones dripping down into a small puddle.

Li Ying took a closer look and saw that there were no locusts or insects in the water. She squatted down and put her head into the puddle to drink water.

After drinking water, Li Ying's stomach felt much better. She sat by the puddle and looked at the cave carefully.

The cave is about the same size as her room. There are strange-shaped stones in the cave. Above the cave, sunlight shines in through the gaps in the stones.

Li Ying stood up and walked towards the outside of the cave.

She groped back to the cave entrance in the dark, sat down against the stone wall, and looked at the top of the cave entrance. She fell from it. If her father and mother came to find her, she would definitely hear their voices.

Li Ying kept looking up, her eyes were sore. She didn't hear the voices of her father and mother, or even anyone else's voice. She looked away in disappointment, looked at the ground in frustration, and kicked the dead leaves on the ground with her feet. , a teardrop fell in the air.

A strong wind blew, and the trees growing on the stone wall danced wildly with the wind. The dead branches and leaves above the cave entrance fell into the cave entrance one after another, falling on Li Ying's body, and a red date fell in front of Li Ying.

Li Ying's eyes lit up, she couldn't wait to pick it up and stuffed it into her mouth. Then she looked at the ground and saw a few dates falling down. She immediately picked up the dates quickly and put them into her small satchel.

"Boom, boom, boom", lightning and thunder sounded one after another, and a bolt of lightning struck down towards the entrance of the cave, shaking Li Ying and subconsciously closed her eyes.

Damn it!Why did lightning strike her? She is already pitiful!She's even more pitiful than the cabbage in the field. She should be given a few more dates!

"Wow!" Heavy rain fell from the sky. Li Ying hurriedly retreated to the entrance. She watched the heavy rain falling from the top of the cave entrance. After thinking about it, she turned and walked towards the cave.

Lin Qingxuan and Li Yun stood in the rain, their bodies soaked by the heavy rain. Li Yun looked at the heavy rain, knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

"Ahhh...!" Where is his Ying'er?
Why couldn't he find her? He was so useless!

Lin Qingxuan couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw Li Yun kneeling on the ground and crying loudly.

A man does not shed tears easily, but he has not reached the sad point. He understands Li Yun's pain. How can he not be sad and sad when such a beautiful and lovely daughter's life and death are unknown!

Fang Li stood at the gate, looking straight at the path ahead. The heavy rain fell on her body, but she didn't care at all.

Li Guoqing and Li Guorong came to Fang Li wearing straw hats and looked at her sadly and guiltily.

"Mom, it's raining. Go back to the house quickly, otherwise you will get sick." Li Guorong advised.

Fang Li seemed to be out of body, looking forward without moving her eyes.

Seeing that Fang Li didn't respond, Li Guoqing also said, "Mom, if you get sick, Yinger will be unhappy when she comes home."

Fang Li heard Li Guoqing mention Li Ying, turned to look at Li Guoqing, gave him a cold look, then indifferently withdrew her eyes and continued to look ahead.

Li Guoqing was shocked by Fang Li's look, and lowered his eyes sadly.

Mom is complaining about him, even hating him!
Li Guorong saw Li Yun's figure appearing at the end of the path and exclaimed: "My father is back."

Surprise burst into Fang Li's eyes, and she looked forward without blinking. As the figure got closer and closer, the light in her eyes disappeared and was replaced by despair.

Yinger not found?

Where is she going to find her daughter?
Fang Li was overwhelmed by sadness, her vision went dark, and she fell backwards.

Li Guorong and Li Guoqing saw Fang Li passed out on the ground and exclaimed: "Mom, mom!"

Li Guoqing took Fenfang Li's hand and said helplessly and regretfully: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Wake up. I know I was wrong and I will never do that again."

Li Guorong looked at Fang Li who fell to the ground in disbelief, shook his head, and murmured to himself: "I didn't know it would be like this. I just heard Xue'er say that if Ying'er doesn't obey, just put Ying'er on the mountain and don't care. She, deliberately scared her, so she won’t dare to talk back to me in the future.”

Li Yun heard Li Guoqing's panicked cry and hurried to his side. He saw Fang Li unconscious on the ground. He was about to bend down to help Fang Li when he heard what Li Guorong said and looked at Li Guorong suddenly, "What did you just say?" , say it again, I didn’t hear you clearly?”

Li Guorong was frightened by Li Yun's gloomy expression. He couldn't help but take a step back and nervously repeated what he just said.

Lin Qingxuan was stunned for a moment. Li Xueer looked gentle and kind, how could she instigate Li Guorong to do such a vicious thing!

Li Xueer stood in front of the window and looked out the window. In the gray sky, heavy rain poured down. The raindrops fell and splashed with raindrops. The rainwater flowed away from the lower places. The soil on the ground mixed with the rainwater and flowed away, and her face was filled with tears. smile brightly.

This heavy rain will wash away the traces left by Li Ying. It will be difficult to find her!

At Goddess Liu's house, Grandma Li sat opposite Goddess Liu, looking at Goddess Liu expectantly, "Goddess, can you help me see where Ying'er is now, and whether I can avert the danger and come back safely."

Grandma Liu put her hands on Li Ying's clothes, closed her eyes, muttered something in her mouth, and trembled all over. After a while, she opened her eyes and looked at Grandma Li, "I asked the gods for you, can your granddaughter survive this narrow escape?" If she can’t survive, it depends on her fate.”
