Before everything goes out

Silent all night.

In fact, Li Fei only slept for three hours and was woken up by knocking on the door at 7:30 in the morning.

The door was pushed open.

A large bald head poked in, startling him so much he almost jumped out of bed.

"Oh, you're awake?"

Niu San.

Li Fei certainly recognized this guy.

The day before yesterday, when I was hospitalized at Wang Guodong's house, this Niu San was the first to rush in, trying to chop off his hand or cut off his head, and I couldn't stop him.

Looking back, the original owner died at the hands of this guy during the interrogation a few days ago.

"That's a pretty dangerous brute."

Thinking of this, Li Fei quickly sat up in bed.

In case anything happens, he can react.

"Don't worry, I won't touch you now. I never expected this, you weren't just talking nonsense, you really can help me find my second brother."

Niu San said.

The pair of small eyes on that big bald head were smiling as they stared at the map on Li Fei's bracelet.

"Teach us how to use this thing later?"

"We'll see, I'm still researching it myself."

Li Fei threw off the covers, got up, and changed his clothes.

It seems that Niu San's change in attitude was all because of the "map" in his hand.

As for teaching, it's definitely not possible.

Although he didn't understand the bracelet himself, if he taught the villagers how to use it, he would truly become an insignificant person.

"Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you outside."

After confirming that Li Fei was in good condition, Niu San left with a remark.

Through the windows and the gate, Li Fei could hear the voices of many people in the courtyard, including Liu Yongxiao and Niu Wenbing.

Just as Li Fei pulled back the covers, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Lin Wen, wearing pajamas, poked her head out.

"Are you going?"

"Um."

"We'll wait for you to come back for dinner. Tonight we'll have roast chicken."

"Um."

Li Fei nodded.

Lin Wen's expression remained normal, so it seemed that Bai Xiaowu hadn't told her about what happened last night.

It's better that they didn't say anything.

At least I don't need to explain anything before going out today. Saying too much at times like this is like setting a flag for myself.

"Is Xiao Wu awake?"

"She's still sleeping. Shall I wake her up for you?"

"No need, see you tonight."

Under Lin Wen's watchful gaze, Li Fei dressed as he had the night before and went out the door.

As dawn broke, a large crowd had already gathered outside.

Outside the courtyard, a group of villagers had gathered to watch the spectacle.

Inside the courtyard was the convoy for this trip.

Snake seven, Niu Wenbing, Niu three.

Li Fei knew all three of them, in addition to three other young men.

One had a face full of pockmarks, one was cross-eyed, and one had bald patches on his head.

Li Fei couldn't recall the names of these people, but they looked somewhat familiar; he had probably seen them while strolling through the village these past few days.

A quick glance revealed that everyone carried tools on their backs, such as machetes at their waists or rakes on their shoulders. In addition, everyone carried their own dry rations, packed in tattered satchels or rag bags.

The group consisted of seven people, including him, and that made up the whole group.

"It's good that everyone's here. With Snake Seven with you, I'm at ease."

Outside the courtyard, a hoarse voice that Li Fei recognized came from.

As before, Liu Yongxiao appeared, his body hunched over, surrounded by several large dogs.

There were two large dogs, one black and one yellow, that he had seen before, as well as some other dogs. Without exception, they were all mixed breeds that he couldn't name, the kind that could be seen everywhere in the countryside.

The dogs stayed close to Liu Yongxiao without barking, appearing quite obedient.

but.

However well these dogs behave now, Li Fei still can't associate them with "pets".

"Old Liu, I won't be going with you. I'll wait for your good news tonight."

Liu Yongxiao, with his hands behind his back, escorted everyone to the north of the village.

At the crossroads before leaving the village, the group waved goodbye to the villagers and received their hopes and expectations.

"Ah Ji, I'm entrusting my uncle to you!"

"Sanwazi, be smart when you get into the mountains, don't be reckless!"

"Grandpa Snake, you will find your daughter, and don't forget my sister."

During the farewell ceremony, Li Fei listened to various voices, but he was not called out to himself.

He wasn't exactly upset; in fact, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't expect me to be the best.

Just as he was about to turn around, he caught a glimpse of two familiar figures in the corner of his vision.

It was Lin Wen, and Bai Xiaowu was being led by Lin Wen.

Seeing Bai Xiaowu's breathless and sweaty appearance, Li Fei knew that she had jumped out of bed and run all the way here.

They exchanged a brief glance, but neither of them said anything.

No need to say more.

Last night, Li Fei made up his mind to help Bai Xiaowu find his mother.

"rest assured."

He nodded to the two men, then turned and followed the group.
