Chapter 4: Bear with him for a few days

Ye Hongchang was not unconscious, but the wound was too painful at the moment and he remained silent.

After persuading Mrs. Wang, Ye Xiangxiang said, "Grandma, let's first hear what happened."

Wang was also curious and sat down after listening to her granddaughter's words.

When Ye Hongchang recovered, Ye Xiangxiang said, "Dad, I have stitched up your wound. I will find some herbs for you to use. It will gradually get better. How do you feel now?"

Ye Hongchang nodded slightly, raised his hand and waved, telling his family not to worry.

When he felt that the pain was bearable, he said, "Gou Yi and I... went hunting in the mountains, and I... hunted a deer. Originally... I wanted to move back here so that Xiangxiang could eat something good. Who could Know……"

He coughed, and Ye Xiangxiang quickly pressed his chest. Coughing at this time would easily open the wound.

"Who would have known that Gou Yi stabbed me directly in the chest while I wasn't paying attention." Ye Hongchang said this with all his strength, his eyes filled with blood.

"Gou Yi, he wanted to... want to kill me. I pretended to be lifeless. When he saw that the knife was inserted deep enough, he escaped with the deer..."

Ye Hongchang roughly told what happened, his voice choked with sobs. He was betrayed by his good brother. He was also a person who valued love and justice. At this time, he was afraid that the pain in his heart would be no better than the pain in his body.

If his family hadn't gone into the mountains to look for him, he wouldn't have been able to come out today. Would he still be alive when the wolves smelled the blood?
  After the whole family heard this, they were all filled with anger.

Ye Hongshun had never believed that Gou Yi would betray him before, and was wondering if there might be any misunderstanding. Now that he heard his second brother say it himself, there would be nothing wrong.

Seeing that his second brother was so seriously injured, Ye Hongshun snatched the kitchen knife from Wang's hand and wanted to chop Gou Yi directly.

He was impulsive, and Ye Xiangxiang shouted loudly, "Third uncle, Gou Yi is the village chief. We have no evidence and only rely on our family. How can we fight with him?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Wang for help, and Wang called out to Ye Hongshun, "The third child is back, let's listen to Xiangxiang say a few words first."

The family sat together, and Ye Xiangxiang asked Ye Lixuan to go out and look outside and don't let anyone come over.

Ye Hongchang turned his head and looked at his daughter. His thoughts were the same as Wang's. Why did this girl suddenly become different?

He was still asleep when he went hunting, but now he is not only better, but he is also so thoughtful that he can even treat his injuries. What is going on?

Ye Xiangxiang naturally knew that he was confused, but she had no intention of hiding anything when she was in crisis.

"Third uncle, it's easy for you to go and fight Gou Yi now, but can you easily hurt him? He has done something wrong, and he must be paying attention to our family now. He will know it as soon as you go out, why don't you hide? "

"Right now, we are fleeing from famine. There are about seventy people in Tongxin Village, and we are always fighting with people along the way. Once we get into trouble with Gou Yi, we will definitely break away from the team. Gou Yi is the village chief. Just based on what we say, Do the people in the village believe him or us?”

"If he leaves our family behind and Dad is seriously injured, have you thought about how we will go along this journey? We are still far away from the Great Yan. If we leave the team, it will be difficult for us to continue to escape."

"I remember my father said that there are dangerous peaks ahead, so we have to work together to survive. How will our family make it?"

After Ye Xiangxiang's analysis, Wang also suppressed his temper and nodded, "Xiangxiang is right, it is not easy for us to escape here. We can't ruin everything on impulse."

Ye Hongshun said anxiously, "But we can't let Gou Yi go just like that, right? I'm really angry. How did we treat him badly? He actually did such a thing."

Ye Hongfu said, "Lao San, please listen to Xiangxiang first."

He could also see that this niece seemed to be a different person. She spoke clearly and clearly, unlike a fourteen-year-old girl.

Ye Xiangxiang continued, "This account must be settled with him, but not now. In my opinion, we just think that dad was injured when he fell off the cliff. If we don't look for him, he will be even more panicked. Let's first deal with the crisis at hand." Let’s talk about it later.”

She looked at Ye Hongchang and asked softly, "Dad, what do you think of this?" Ye Hongchang grabbed his clothes tightly. Ye Xiangxiang knew that he was also angry, but for the sake of the overall situation, he had to endure it at the moment.

He nodded, "Xiangxiang... you are right. If we are separated, our family will not be able to go to Great Yan, so we must endure it for now."

In Ye Hongshun's heart, his second brother is a god. He has spoken, so he will naturally not make trouble again.

"Okay, I'll tolerate him for now, but I can't bear it for long."

Ye Hongshun gritted his teeth. When he thought about the help the Ye family had given Gou Yi over the years, he felt so regretful that he felt like he had been fed to a vicious dog.

It was already getting late. After discussing the countermeasures, the Ye family each had something to eat and went to sleep.

Ye Hongchang was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep. Mrs. Wang came over and said, "Take good care of your injuries. You are the backbone of our family. Don't let anything happen to you."

"Mother, Xiangxiang, she..."

Mrs. Wang nodded and briefly told the story of Ye Xiangxiang waking up, "I thought Xiangxiang might have met a god to help. Let's not make this matter public. It's okay as long as our family knows about it. It's not a bad thing for a girl to be more capable. What do you think? Woolen cloth?"

Ye Hongchang loves this girl the most, so naturally he has nothing to say, he is just confused.

Not to mention being possessed by a ghost, or encountering help from gods, even if Xiangxiang really became a ghost, she was still his precious daughter.

"Thanks to Xiangxiang today, otherwise I would have died in the mountains. I was not on guard against Gou Yi, but who would have thought that he would be so ungrateful and blame me for mistrusting others."

Mrs. Wang comforted, "You are an upright person. What's wrong with helping others? If you help him and he bites him in turn, that's because he has no conscience. You haven't done anything wrong. It's better to see him clearly this time. In the future, You won’t be confused anymore.”

"Yeah." Ye Hongchang nodded.

Late at night, everyone had gone to bed, but Gou Yi and his son Gou Xingwang were still busy.

"Dad, where is the deer?"

I heard he said that there was a deer hidden in the grass. After everyone went to bed, they went to look for it. They stayed hungry all night and looked forward to coming to find it.

But there was nothing in the grass at the moment.

The grass was crushed, but it could be seen that something had been placed here before.

Gou Yi was also anxious. He remembered clearly that it was placed here, but it was gone.

After searching for a while, Gou Yi gave up and sighed.

"Stop looking for it. It was either dragged away by wolves or found by other refugees. It's a little late."

When Gou Xingwang heard this, he sat on the ground and started to make a fuss, "I told you to look for me earlier, but you didn't listen. How are you now? When can I have a bite of meat?"

Gou Yi had no intention of thinking about the deer. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the place where the Ye family rested.

After he left today, the Ye family went into the mountains and later seemed to carry Ye Hongchang back.

He just didn't know whether he was carrying a corpse or a living person.

If Ye Hongchang had not died...
