Chapter 22
Heishi respectfully saluted the village chief slightly, Xu Shi was doing gentle movements, which didn't match the usual strong image of this reckless man, and looked a little clumsy, "Help is not a word, we are here this time, just I want to do my part to rebuild the house in Taocun. In addition, I brought a red-eyed pig as a gift to express my apology and sincerity."

As he spoke, he waved his hands, and four people walked behind him, carrying together a dead red-eyed pig.The blood on its surface was still bright red, and it had just died not long ago.

In this barren land, food is extremely precious, and it is dangerous to enter the Qingming Forest every time to hunt, so for the villagers, food is the best and most sincere gift.

"Hey, I didn't expect you Wucun to be quite intentional." Tietou was careless, with a clear distinction between good and evil. Seeing that the people in Wucun had a good attitude, and listening to Shi Qiu's explanation, he slowly let go of his hostility.

With the help of Wucun people, the reconstruction of Taocun has been accelerated.

Because of the debt to Taocun's family, Wucun often deliberately arranges to go to the Qingming Forest to cut wood. Occasionally, if he is lucky, he will bring back some food, such as one or two small rabbits.

Rabbit beasts usually live on the edge of Qingming Forest, which is a relatively safe area for hunters.

Rabbits are also the main food for wild residents. They are short in body, flexible and fast, and are not easy to catch.Due to the limited amount of meat that the rabbit can provide, it is often hunted, which is far less valuable than a red-eyed pig.

……

Since that day, Youxiang has locked himself in a corner of the ruins, which was his former home, and now there is only one house without a roof, surrounded by broken wooden walls, which looks crumbling.

He didn't want to come out, and he didn't allow the villagers to rebuild the ruins.Over the past few days, I have been immersed in sadness, neither eating nor drinking.

Every time Shi Qiu would deliver the prepared meals to the door, he would naturally not accept Shi Qiu's kindness and refused to eat.Fortunately, Tie Tou was with him all the time, forcing him to eat more or less food.

On the way back, Shi Qiu happened to bump into Heishi, he was still very respectful, seeing Shi Qiu was always cautious, which made Shi Qiu very unnatural.

"You don't have to be like this, you are a generation older than me." Shi Qiu said, trying to relieve the embarrassment visible to the naked eye, her voice slowly recovered, but it was not completely recovered.

Shiqiu and Heishi walked on the village road together. The villagers on both sides were still busy building houses, and a few children were running around playing. Run away again.

Looking at the figure of the child, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.

"After all, I owe it." Heishi couldn't help but sighed.

"It's still the same sentence, the wrong has the head and the debt has the owner, and one person's crime has nothing to do with others." Shi Qiu couldn't count how many times he said this sentence, but every time Heishi saw him, he still looked guilty. .

As if thinking of something, Shi Qiu asked again: "That day Wu Cong talked about his sister? So he went to Qingming Forest to save people?"

"Not all." Heishi paused for a moment, then glanced at Shi Qiu again, seeing that she was not unhappy, he continued, "Wu Cong and Wu Yan were brought up by my little family. They lost their father and mother when they were young. It's a pity, Yan'er suffered from tuberculosis since she was a child, and her days are numbered. Wu Cong... this child has a heavy heart."
