Chapter 95 Fu Ciyi made a gesture of silence to her, listened carefully, and after a moment, said to her: "Come with me."
I saw him striding away, and Yan Funing hurriedly followed.
The two walked along the cliff for a while, and then walked for a while toward the top of the mountain.
Suddenly, Fu Ciyi stretched out his arms to stop her.
"What's wrong?" Yan Funing didn't know why.
Fu Ciyi took his chin and pointed at the ground: "It's right here."
Yan Funing took a closer look and saw that the ground was covered with fallen leaves. At first glance, it looked no different from ordinary mountain ground.
And when I looked carefully, I discovered that there was a trap here, and a hole had been made in one corner.
"trap?"
Fu Ciyi: "It was probably set up by Orion."
The faint cry for help came from here.
Yan Funing knelt down and pulled away the dead leaves, revealing a few branches lying across the pit.
At the bottom of the trap, curled up was an old man with gray hair.
"Sure enough, there is someone." Yan Funing threw the branch aside, raised her hand like a trumpet, and shouted to the bottom of the trap, "Old man, how are you?"
The old man moved slightly, his half-closed eyes slightly opened.
When he saw the sky and two beautiful people, he wanted to say something but fainted.
"Hey, old man, what's wrong with you?" Yan Fu asked anxiously.
However, this trap is obviously prepared for wild animals. It is so deep that once you fall into it, you will never be able to climb out again.
Fu Ciyi said to her: "Since there are traps here, it means that wild beasts appear frequently. Do you see a lot of paw prints on the trap wall?"
Yan Funing looked carefully in the direction he pointed, and sure enough she saw a lot of paw prints.
The trap is surrounded by mud, but the belly is big and the mouth is small. If the beast falls into it, even with powerful claws, it will be difficult to climb up the ground.
When a person falls in, he or she does not know whether his legs or feet are injured. Even if his legs and feet are not injured, he can only wait for someone to rescue him.
Deep in the mountains and old forests, there are few people, unless the hunters who dig this trap come.
However, hunters usually come only after a while, so it is very dangerous for people to fall into them.
Yan Funing nodded.
Fu Ciyi put the backpack on the ground: "Just stay there and don't move."
He was afraid that when he went to save the old man, a wild beast would suddenly arrive.
By then he would have lost sight of the other.
Yan Funing said softly: "I won't move."
"Okay." With one word, Fu Ciyi jumped into the trap.
Yan Funing didn't expect that he would jump in to save her, and her heart skipped a beat: "Fu Ciyi, let's look around for vines and the like. You're like this..."
Before she finished speaking, Fu Ciyi had already led the old man out of the trap.
Yan Funing quickly looked to see if there were any scratches on his body and face. She felt relieved when she saw that his clothes were neat and his cheeks were as usual.
Then he looked down at the old man whom he had placed leaning against the tree pole.
"Old man, how did you fall into the trap and when did you fall in?"
The old man opened his eyes slightly and said weakly: "Yesterday morning."
"It's been so long." Yan Funing frowned, "Where is your family?"
"Is there water?" The old man's voice was hoarse.
"There are oranges." Yan Funing quickly took out an orange from her backpack and gave it to him.
The old man took the orange, raised his eyes to look at them, and said slowly: "My family will come to look for me. It's getting late, so you should go back."
Yan Funing asked: "Ah, there are many wild beasts here. Is it okay if you wait here?"
The old man shook his head: "It's okay, you can go back." Yan Funing felt strange that they saved him, but instead of saying a word of thanks, he told them to leave quickly.
It was as if he was afraid that they would extort money from him.
Fu Ciyi picked up the backpack without saying a word, grabbed Yan Funing's arm and left.
The two walked in silence for a long time.
Suddenly there was a whistle from behind.
Fu Ciyi's ears twitched. As he expected, the old man probably had some background.
Yan Funing had a complicated mood. She thought for a moment and said to him, "Fu Ciyi, maybe I'm meddling in other people's business."
Fu Ciyi said calmly: "The intention of saving people is right. What you just did was right, but not everyone will repay the kindness. Just be more considerate in the future."
Yan Funing asked: "Do you think the old man just now is afraid that we will extort money?"
His clothes looked like they belonged to a wealthy family, but they were wearing fine cotton.
Fu Ciyi said: "It's probably possible."
Yan Funing sighed: "We didn't find Ganoderma lucidum today, and we only picked a few oyster mushrooms."
"Go into the mountains again tomorrow and change the road and the top of the mountain."
"it is good."
The two of them walked out of the deep mountains and old forests and passed by a place where they were picking oyster mushrooms. They found several figures surrounding the dead tree, so they walked over quickly.
It turned out that the five members of the Hu family tied up the dead wood with hemp rope, passed the knots of the hemp rope with poles from front to back, and lifted the dead wood directly.
Yan Funing shouted: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Hu Ajing put her hands on her hips and said with a smile: "You are allowed to pick it early every day, but we are not allowed to take the dead wood for ourselves?"
"Take it as your own?" Yan Funing frowned, "This dead wood is from the forest, not from your Hu family."
Hu Ajing smiled again: "Let's carry it home. It belongs to our Hu family." She turned to her family and said, "Grandpa, father and mother, lift it up quickly."
Hu Dahai, Hu Xingwang, the Fu family and the Qian family all shouted slogans, and the thick dead wood was carried away by them.
Hu Ajing proudly said to Yan Funing: "We will put the dead wood in our yard, pick some when we want to eat oyster mushrooms, and sell them for money. You will have no wild oyster mushrooms to sell in the future!"
Mrs. Fu said in a strange tone: "Being a teacher, I support a family of five, and now I have a fatherless and motherless Ali. Haha, tsk, tsk, tsk, I can't even pick the oyster mushrooms."
Qian also said: "Oyster mushrooms are delicious and valuable. Whoever carries away the wood on which the mushrooms grow belongs..."
The Hu family members chattered and said all kinds of unpleasant things.
Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing looked at each other, ignored them, and walked straight ahead.
The Hu family could not move quickly while carrying the dead wood, so Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing left them far behind.
When they were going downhill, Fu Ciyi stopped and said coolly: "If the dead wood is destroyed, no mushrooms will grow."
Yan Funing stopped and said, "What you mean is that we wait for them here and trip them when they pass by, so that the dead wood will fall down the mountain. Because the wood is already dry, it will definitely break into pieces."
Fu Ciyi nodded and said bluntly: "That's exactly what I mean."
Yan Funing laughed out loud.
"Why are you laughing?" Fu Ciyi was confused.
"We only picked three or four kilograms of oyster mushrooms today. I looked carefully when we were picking. The wood was dry and the nutrients contained the oyster mushrooms. It has been harvested for several times, and no oyster mushrooms can grow on the rotten wood. Here we come." Yan Funing smiled again, "What they brought back today was just rotten wood, which is of no use and can't even make a fire."
Hearing this, Fu Ciyi rarely chuckled.
Yan Funing blinked, this man had a very nice smile.
Being stared at by her like this, Fu Ciyi felt a little uncomfortable and said hoarsely: "It's getting dark, let's go back soon."
