Perfect pastoral life

Chapter 21 Fight to the Death

At night, the temperature in the mountains was low, and everyone was sitting or lying around the campfire, and no one dared to sleep for a while.

Economic development has caused the trees in the mountains to be felled excessively, and the entire forest system has suffered varying degrees of damage. As a result, there are almost no large wild animals in the mountain forests.Generally speaking, if you spend the night in the deep mountains, you will not be attacked by wild animals, but it does not mean that there is no danger in staying in the mountains.

There are no large beasts, but all kinds of centipedes and venomous snakes can also kill people. The most deadly ones are all kinds of blood-sucking mosquitoes in the mountains. There are a large number of mosquitoes and they are widely distributed. Make people's skin allergies, full of swelling.

The best way to prevent mosquito bites is to have a bonfire. Most mosquitoes are afraid of heat, and people can avoid being bitten by them just by sitting next to the bonfire.

Chen Mu picked up a lot of dry firewood and branches nearby, and tried to make the campfire bigger, so as to prevent everyone from catching a cold while sleeping.

The night in the deep mountains is extremely quiet, and the Qingshui River at the bottom of the canyon is flowing quietly, but tonight the sky is thick with clouds, and no stars can be seen, and even the semicircular moon can only see a vague silver outline.

Everyone was a little sleepy and began to fall into a drowsy sleep.Chen Mu couldn't sleep for a while, and his sensitive hearing told him that there seemed to be small wild animals infesting nearby, but he didn't know what kind of animal it was. Based on the direction of the sound he heard, he wanted to go to the nearby mountains to have a look.

Seeing him walking into the dark alone, Liang Xiaoyue asked;
"Brother Chen Mu, where are you going so late, aren't you going to sleep?"

Chen Mu smiled and said, "Xiaoyue, if you're sleepy, go to bed first. I'll go for a walk in the nearby mountains. Anyway, I can't fall asleep now."

Liang Xiaoyue looked at Chen Mu in surprise; "Ah, it's so dark, can you see the road?"

Suddenly being asked such a question, Chen Mu didn't know how to answer her for a while.

Indeed, Chen Mu could see the road clearly because of the golden dragon in his body.However, I can't tell Liang Xiaoyue that I have night vision and can walk freely at night. It would be bad if people misunderstand her as insane.

Chen Mu casually found an excuse to confuse the question, and then said to her;

"By the way, Xiaoyue, did you call your family and tell your mother that you came to collect medicine?"

When asked about this, Liang Xiaoyue panicked suddenly, she had completely forgotten about it.

"It's not good, I left in a hurry today, and I didn't have time to tell my family. My mother must be worried about me at home." Liang Xiaoyue said anxiously.

Hearing this, Chen Mu hurriedly said, "Xiaoyue, hurry up and call home and tell her about our situation, so as not to worry your mother."

Liang Xiaoyue nodded, then hurriedly took out her mobile phone, and turned on the screen with her finger, but she couldn't turn on the phone screen after several attempts, she suddenly became anxious;
"The phone won't turn on. It must be out of battery. What should I do now?"

Pfft, this is troublesome, Chen Mu thought, Liang Xiaoyue's family didn't know about her going to the mountains to collect herbs, and now her mother must be looking for her daughter all over the village.

Chen Mu looked at the last [-]% of his phone's battery, so he said to Liang Xiaoyue;

"Xiaoyue, where do you usually store your contact numbers?"

"Ah, I have all the numbers stored in my phone, but not on the card."

Well, this game is completely over now, there is no way to contact the family, and Liang Xiaoyue's family members have to become ants on the hot pot.

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to worry, I can only wait for Liang Xiaoyue to go home tomorrow to explain to her family, there is no way to do this, I hope her family will not worry too much about her.

At this time, Chen Mu lost the interest in looking for small wild beasts in the mountains. Seeing that the bonfire in front of him was about to burn out again, he went to find some dry firewood nearby and added it to keep the bonfire burning. In Yeling, it is absolutely impossible to keep warm without a bonfire.

. . .

At nine o'clock in the evening.

Yang Weimin, head of Shuitian Village.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman with a handicap walking anxiously on crutches came to the door of Yang Weimin's house. The middle-aged woman was Yao Honglian, and she was Liang Xiaoyue's mother.

Yao Honglian suffered from paraplegia due to an accidental fall. She could not walk normally on her left foot and could only move slowly with the help of crutches.In the past six months, her illness has become more and more serious. Now she can hardly use her left foot and walks entirely on crutches.

At this time, Yao Honglian gritted her teeth and came to the yard of Yang Weimin's house with difficulty, shouting in panic;

"Village Chief, Village Chief, is Village Chief Yang at home? I need to see you."

After a while, a middle-aged and elderly man under the age of 60 came out of the room. He looked at the woman in the courtyard and asked;

"Liang Caigui's wife, why did you come here at night?"

Yao Honglian cried anxiously with red eyes;

"My daughter hasn't seen her all day today. I don't know where she is. Village chief, can you ask some villagers to help find her? Please, village chief, nothing can happen to my daughter."

Yang Weimin frowned when he heard this, and said, "This matter? Didn't you call her?"

"Yes, the phone is turned off. Something must have happened, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed home so late."

Yang Weimin was also very angry about the fact that the girls in the village did not return home, because some young gangsters from the society often came to harass the girls in the village.The gangsters tricked the little girls into the town or the county to fool around with their rhetoric. Girls nowadays don't know how to protect themselves, and they often inadvertently get contaminated with drugs such as fan-drugs, gun-drugs, and aphrodisiacs. Once the things are taken by gangsters, the consequences will be unimaginable.

It is not unheard of for Mizutamura to have a girl get hurt.

It was precisely because such things had happened in their village before, as the village head, Yang Weimin hated the fact that the little girl in the village did not return home, so he immediately snorted and said;
"What's the matter with your girl? It's shameful that a person of this age doesn't know how to return home."

Yao Honglian cried; "She is not like this usually, village chief, something must have happened, something must have happened, woo woo."

Seeing that Yao Honglian was crying anxiously, Yang Weimin sighed and said comfortingly;
"Liang Caigui's daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry first, maybe your daughter just went to a classmate's house to play."

Yao Honglian snotted her nose and cried; "Village chief, I understand my girl, she will definitely call home before going to her classmate's house to play, and I haven't received a call from her until now, something must have happened. Let's find the village chief."

Hearing this, Yang Weimin finally frowned helplessly. There was no clue at this late night, so where should he take someone to look for it?

Sighing, Yang Weimin kept pacing in the yard with his hands behind his back, other than that, he had nothing to do.

At this moment, a strong middle-aged man was walking by the road outside the gate of the courtyard. The burly man must have heard the conversation between the two people in the courtyard, so he walked in and said;
"Village chief, what were you talking about just now? Liang Caigui's daughter is missing?"

Yang Weimin looked at the rough man and asked, "Yang Shumeng, have you seen that girl today?"

I saw Yang Shu spit out a mouthful of phlegm angrily, and cursed;
"Why haven't I seen it before? I drove past the entrance of Longdong Village this morning, and saw that girl was with a young guy from Longdong Village. Damn, the young bastard in Longdong Village must be dating our little girl. Village head, why don't we go to Longdong Village to ask for someone?"

"What, Longdong Village?" Yang Weimin asked in surprise, "Yang Shumeng, are you fucking sure you didn't miss it?"

"Grass, I'm not blind to the village chief, this can be misunderstood."

Now, Yang Weimin was completely angry;

"Caota Niang is Longdong Village again, Yang Shumeng, listen to me, you immediately find some villagers who can fight and go to Longdong Village, if they can't hand over anyone, you will beat me to death."

"Okay, I'm going to call someone over now. Mara is a bitch, I've been wanting to beat them up for a long time."

Yang Shu turned around abruptly and left the hospital, hurriedly calling for someone to go.
