He could always clearly remember the hardships Yu Ye had suffered.
The stone crevices in the cave not only hid the big snake, which almost cost him his life, but also led to the cave from which he came, and was his only escape route.
Although the stone crevice is narrow, the walls are smooth, so crawling down is not difficult.
However, his right hand was not in control, his shoulder was in unbearable pain, and with the darkness in front of his eyes, Yu Ye could only twist his body like a fish out of the water, and then he was able to get through the gap.
Escape was difficult, that's all. But at this moment, he felt dizzy and his body was hot and cold. It was like a fire was lit in his stomach, burning his internal organs, but his limbs were cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, making him miserable. Word.
What's wrong?
Could it be because of the beads, the Jiao Dan?
When I swallowed the pill, I thought it was hard to swallow. Unexpectedly, when he opened his mouth, a jiaodan the size of a chicken egg fell directly into his belly. There was nothing unusual at the time, but unexpectedly his disaster began.
Who was that speaker? Why was his voice heard but not his person seen? Is she helping out with good intentions, or is she deliberately trying to harm herself?
"Crackling——"
Just as Yu Ye was moving, several pieces of gravel fell down.
Bai Zhi's senior brother is chasing after her.
That ruthless guy seemed to be behind him. The sharp blade in his hand can not only shine, but can also easily break hard stones.
Yu Ye moved desperately.
In the darkness, a glimmer of light appeared.
Yu Ye tried his best to crawl over...
…
Inside the cave, torches swayed.
The father and son were still searching everywhere.
Yu Shitou stopped, slammed the iron fork in his hand on the ground, and sighed: "Alas, Yu Ye is clearly here, but no one can be found. His father was like this last year. Who would have thought that today..."
Yu Ye broke into the cave alone, which made him feel uneasy. After Yu Ergou returned, the father and son chased him together.
There were only gravels on the ground and a broken hunting knife. The person I was looking for was gone.
Yu Ergou was a young man with a lively mind. He held up a torch and looked up, reminding -
"Dad, could it be that he ran up there?"
There is a crack in the stone at the top of the cave two or three feet above the ground. Judging from its size, it can actually hide a person.
Yu Shitou shook his head and said, "That's nonsense. It's so high and there's no ladder. Who can run up there!"
Unexpectedly, before the words were finished, a figure quickly fell down...
"boom--"
Yu Ye fell heavily to the ground.
It was like the soul hitting the body, a kind of torture that was difficult to let go of and tortured, making him fall into a trance. Then his mouth and nose felt hot, and hot blood spurted out from his mouth and nose.
Yu Ye forced his eyes open.
In the flickering firelight, it was like returning to the original cave. Yu Shitou and Yu Ergou also appeared in front of him, yelling at him.
"Yu Ye, what's going on..."
"Dad, there is another person above..."
When the father and son saw Yu Ye, they were shocked. Unexpectedly, a figure jumped out from the cracks in the rocks on the roof of the cave again.
Yu Ye ignored the hot blood spraying from his mouth and said anxiously: "He...he wants to kill me, Fifth Uncle, leave quickly!"
Yu Shitou was an old hunter and was wary by nature, so he immediately shouted: "Dog!"
Father and son were connected, and Yu Ergou didn't dare to neglect him. He threw away the torch, picked up his back and ran away into the wild.
Yu Shitou held up the iron fork and said with a wary expression: "Why did this brother kill someone?"
It was Bai Zhi's senior brother who appeared next. Before he landed firmly, he was questioned. He suddenly said angrily: "Back off——"
"If you have something to say..."
Yu Shitou stood up to block him and refused to give in. Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, a light flashed in front of his eyes, his arm shook, and the iron fork he held broke into two pieces and flew out. He turned pale with horror, turned around and retreated out of the cave.
Brother Bai Zhi raised his foot and chased after him.
The reason why that kid didn't die was just luck. It was simply wishful thinking to expect the two hunters to save him.
While breathing, the person is outside the cave.
Brother Bai Zhi rushed out of the cave, took advantage of the opportunity to brush off the snowflakes on his body, raised his hands and feet in one breath, very agile, free and easy, with extraordinary momentum. He was about to continue chasing, but he stopped and frowned slightly.
On the snow outside the cave, there were more than a dozen men standing, each holding a knife or a stick, staring at him eagerly. Yu Ye, whom he wanted to chase, was already surrounded by the crowd.
A middle-aged man took two steps forward and said, "I, Yu Youcai, would like to ask you what your brother's name is!"
A young man followed him, raised his hunting knife, and said arrogantly: "You dare to kill people from my village, how brave you are!"
Senior Brother Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes and smiled sarcastically.
Among the crowd, Yu Ye was sitting on the ground, his face was red, there was blood on the corner of his mouth, and he looked depressed. Half of his robe was taken off, and his exposed right wrist and shoulder were tied with strips of cloth and willow branches. Yu Ergou accompanied him and helped him check his injuries. According to Uncle Wu, his wrist was broken and his shoulder blade was broken into several pieces. Fortunately, the tribesmen came to rescue him and he escaped death again.
What he didn't expect was that not only all the uncles and brothers in the village rushed here, but Yu Youcai and his son also stood up for him regardless of their past grudges.
However, Bai Zhi's senior brother is greedy, cruel and vicious, and he also knows magical powers. Even if he has a large number of people, he is probably no match for him.
"You don't need to know who I am!"
As expected, Brother Bai Zhi ignored Yu Youcai and Yu Baoshan, but ran towards the crowd and said in an arrogant manner: "Yu Ye from Yujia Village stole my treasure, I will take him away to hold him accountable!"
"ah……"
Yu Youcai was unexpected and asked hurriedly: "Do you have any evidence?"
"snort!"
Senior Brother Bai Zhi snorted and raised the dagger in his hand.
"My credentials are this sharp sword and magical weapon!"
I saw his arm shaking hard, and the dagger he was holding suddenly flashed a light, which could be seen clearly even in broad daylight.
Yu Youcai, Yu Baoshan and everyone present were all shocked.
How had a group of men in the mountains ever seen such a magical sight!
Yu Youcai took two steps back, still reaching out to stop him, but his words were a little more cautious——
"Brother, this matter is related to my nephew's innocence and my reputation in Yujia Village. Don't dare to act out of emotion!"
The people in the mountains were short-sighted, but they cared about reputation, and they all expressed their indignation——
"Produce real evidence."
“The sky is big and the earth is big, no bigger than a word.”
"How could my little boy from Yujiacun do such dirty things?"
"Even if you have magical powers, what can you do? There are also experts in Baijia Village. Miss Bai is here..."
Bai Zhi's senior brother revealed his magical powers, which was meant to shock him. Unexpectedly, these hunters, who were dressed in shabby and vulgar clothes, actually started to talk sense to him. In his anger, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
"Senior brother——"
Someone called.
It was a graceful and graceful masked woman, galloping from a distance. Behind her were twenty or thirty men.
It's Miss Bai's family, Bai Zhi. Her feet seemed not to touch the ground, and she was as fast as the wind. With only a few ups and downs, she floated in front of everyone.
The expressions of Yu Youcai, Yu Baoshan and others changed.
This unreasonable man is actually Miss Bai's senior brother? No wonder he is so powerful and he turns out to be a legendary cultivator. As fellow seniors and fellow disciples, I don’t know how Miss Bai behaves.
"Miss Bai!"
"Brother Bai, Brother Feng..."
Yu Youcai said hello to Bai Zhi and ran towards the group of people behind her to greet her. The twenty or thirty men who came were all hunters from Baijiacun and Hejiacun, and the leaders of the two families, Bai Xuan and Feng Shuanzi, were also among them. He explained the whole story to his two old friends and hurriedly returned to the scene.
Forty or fifty people gathered on the snow-covered hillside.
Yu Youcai, Bai Xuan, Feng Shuanzi and other hunters were silent, only listening to the words of a pair of senior brothers and junior sisters who had just met——
"This is my senior brother, Taoist name Chenqi. He was ordered to go down the mountain and come here. If there is any misunderstanding, Bai Zhi will apologize to all the fellow villagers on his behalf!"
"Junior sister, you don't know something..."
Yu Ye was still sitting on the ground, silently looking through the crowd.
"I will never forgive Yu Ye for stealing my treasure. Junior sister, help me capture him and bring him back to my master's door to be punished!"
"treasure……"
After a brief conversation, a brother and sister seemed to have reached a tacit understanding.
Bai Zhi turned to everyone and said: "Everyone knows that it is true that Yu Ye stole the treasure. Please return the treasure, otherwise my senior brother and I will have difficulty in explaining to the master!"
Bai Xuan seemed magnanimous, waving his hand and saying: "Take the treasure and return it to others."
Feng Shuanzi nodded in agreement.
Yu Youcai looked embarrassed and was speechless to argue. If it was true that Yu Ye had stolen the treasure, as an elder he would not be able to cover it up.
"Yuye, hand over what you stole!"
As Bai Zhi's words sounded again, everyone looked towards Yu Ye.
Yu Ergou muttered: "Brother, are you stealing people's things?"
Yu Ye shook his head and said feebly: "I didn't..."
"Humph, he's quibbling!"
Chen Qi and Bai Zhi said, "Junior sister, the matter has come to an end. It's useless to talk more. I will take action myself!"
"I……"
Yu Ye's eyes were a little erratic, but he was watching Chen Qi's every move through the crowd. He knew that if he didn't speak out at this time, he would have no chance to speak again. He grabbed Yu Ergou's arm and stood up with difficulty, and refuted: "I didn't steal the treasure, but you destroyed the body and wiped out the traces..."
He was about to tell the truth, but was rudely interrupted——
"shut up!"
Chen Qi showed his fierce look and walked straight towards him.
Yu Youcai and others looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
The corners of Yu Ye's eyes twitched slightly, and he stretched out his hand to push Yu Ergou away, pulled off his robe, raised his head and said angrily: "You bully me and humiliate me for no reason, where is the justice of heaven -"
His thin body and bare chest were all visible, unable to hide anything. Coupled with the blood oozing from his injured wrists and shoulders, his angry words were even more desperate and tragic.
Chen Qi remained indifferent, his feet kept moving, and the dagger in his hand flashed with a cold light.
Yu Youcai couldn't bear it anymore and led more than a dozen men to block the way with knives and sticks. The men of the Bai family and the Feng family also showed dissatisfied looks.
Perhaps in the eyes of everyone, Yu Ye is just a child. Since there is no evidence of stealing, he will not be treated like this.
Bai Zhi looked at the situation around her and said, "Senior brother, this matter needs to be considered!"
At this moment, Yu Ye could no longer see or hear anything. He just roared angrily: "Chenqi, I'm not afraid of you, come on -"
Before he could finish his roar, he spurted out a mouthful of hot blood and fell down on his back...
