Chapter 19
Li Ying looked at the small yellow croaker in the box with great joy. She picked up a small yellow croaker and bit it with her mouth, then laughed happily.
The little yellow croaker is a valuable treasure and can be exchanged for a lot of money. From now on, she will be a rich person. She can go to the city every day to eat well and buy beautiful clothes.
Li Ying smiled and counted the small yellow croakers in the box. There were ten in total. She preciously put the small yellow croakers into her small satchel.
If her biological father comes to her early, she will give him a small yellow croaker, and her mother and grandmother will each give one. Grandpa has a small yellow croaker, but she will not give it to her. She will keep the rest and exchange money for delicious food. of.
Li Ying picked up the stick again and started looking for treasures full of energy. She wanted to find many small yellow croakers. She wanted to become the richest cub in the village, envying Deadbolt and the others.
Li Ying searched every corner of the cave entrance, but couldn't find a single hair. She threw away the stick in frustration and stopped looking. She didn't find the treasure, but she was hungry again!
Li Ying looked at the tweezers on the stone wall with salivation. She had an idea and quickly moved two stones and stacked them together. She stepped on the rocks to pick the tweezers and put them into her mouth while picking.
After picking all the ripe ground nuts and eating them, the sky also darkened. Li Ying held some dead leaves and placed them at the entrance. She leaned against the stone wall without daring to move, looking at the increasingly dark night. She kept telling herself, don't be afraid of Ying'er, there is nothing to be afraid of, Ying'er is the most brave and right child in the world.
But facing the darkness, Li Ying was still very scared. She felt that there were countless monsters hidden in the darkness. As long as she moved, the monsters would pounce on her and swallow her.
Li Ying shed tears silently and murmured to the air: "Dad, Mom, Ying'er wants to go home. Ying'er misses you. You have to come and take Ying'er home quickly."
In the Li family hall, Li Yun said coldly to Li Guorong and Li Guoqing: "I won't beat you or scold you, and you don't call me dad in the future. Your mother and I would rather die without anyone than have you be so cold-blooded." The ruthless son.”
Li Guorong and Li Guoqing's expressions changed drastically. They looked at Li Yun in shock and then at Fang Li, hoping that she would not give up on them.
Fang Li looked at them blankly, "The day I can't find Ying'er, the day I won't forgive you."
"My eldest brother and I just deliberately scared Ying'er. We didn't mean to leave her on the mountain. We don't want anything to happen to her. She ran around on her own. If she didn't run around, nothing would happen. You can't blame it all on her. It's on me and my eldest brother." Li Guorong retorted unconvinced.
Li Yun angrily slapped Li Guorong on the face and angrily said, "I still don't know where I went wrong. I'm really stubborn and unrepentant."
Li Guorong covered his slapped face and ran back to the room angrily.
Li Guorong looked at Li Yun and Fang Li with a complicated face, then turned and returned to the room.
Perhaps in the hearts of father and mother, Li Ying is the most important, otherwise they would not give up on him and his second brother so easily.
Grandma Li sighed sadly, looked at Li Yun and said: "Tomorrow morning I will go up the mountain with you to look for Ying'er. We want to see the person alive and the corpse after death."
When Fang Li heard the word death, she cried in fear.
Grandma Li saw that Fang Li's eyes were swollen from crying and bloodshot, and she couldn't help but said: "Xiao Li, stop crying. If you keep crying, your eyes will go blind from crying. For now, We want to find Ying'er, crying is of no use."
Li Yun thinks that Grandma Li is right, finding Li Ying is the top priority.
Li Yun thought about the places where Li Ying might have been, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration. He looked at Grandma Li and said, "Mom, there are many holes in Jinyin Village. Do you think Ying'er may have accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the dark place?" In the cave.”
Grandma Li's eyes lit up, as if she saw hope, "It's possible."
"I'll take the flashlight now and go to the mountain to find Ying'er." Li Yun said impatiently.
"It's late at night and it's not safe for you to go up the mountain alone. I'll go with you to find Yinger." Grandma Li said.
Fang Li wants to see Li Ying quickly and wants to know if she is okay? "I'll go too, there's strength in numbers." Fang Li said eagerly.
Seeing Fang Li's anxious and uneasy look, Li Yun said with relief, "Okay, let's go find Ying'er together."
Li Guorong and Li Guoqing looked at Li Yun, Grandma Li and Fang Li, and went out to look for Li Ying with flashlights at night.
"Brother, will they find Ying'er?" Li Guorong asked anxiously.
"I don't know." Li Guoqing said.
Li Ying vaguely heard someone talking, opened her eyes quickly, ran to the entrance of the cave and shouted: "Help, who is up there, help me!" Li Ying shouted a few words, but no one answered her. I also thought I was hallucinating, and I also suspected that my voice was too soft and the people above didn't hear me.
Li Ying put her hands together and put them to her mouth, and shouted at the entrance of the cave: "Is there anyone up there? If you hear it, answer me. I am Li Yun's daughter, Li Ying."
Li Yun, Grandma Li and Fang Li stopped suddenly, and Li Yun subconsciously shouted: "Ying'er, Ying'er, I'm dad, where are you?"
Fang Li said hurriedly: "Don't make any sound. I'll listen carefully to see where the sound comes from."
Li Yun immediately fell silent and listened with bated breath.
Li Ying shouted at the entrance of the cave for a long time but no one came to the entrance. Tears instantly filled her eyes, "Has anyone left?"
"Ying'er, Ying'er!" A familiar voice sounded above the entrance of the cave, and then a bright light shot towards the entrance of the cave, "Ying'er, is that you?"
Li Ying burst into tears when she heard Li Yundao's voice. While crying, she complained: "Dad, Dad, why are you here now? I thought you didn't want Ying'er anymore."
"Dad, come down and save Ying'er quickly. It's so dark down there and Ying'er is scared."
Li Yun, Grandma Li and Fang Li cried with joy when they heard Li Ying's cries.
They finally found Yinger! "Ying'er, don't be afraid. Mom and grandma are here too. We will definitely rescue you." Fang Li said while choking.
Li Ying not only heard Li Yun's voice, but also Fang Li's voice. Her grievance, uneasiness and fear were replaced by joy.
"Xiao Yun, Ying'er is frightened, hurry up and save Ying'er." Grandma Li urged.
"Mom, I'll go down and rescue Ying'er right now." Li Yun said, tying one end of the rope to the tree and throwing the other end into the hole. He held on tightly and slid down the rope towards the hole.
Li Ying saw Li Yun falling from the sky, rushed to hug him, and cried: "Dad, I have been waiting for you for a long time, why did you just come?"
Li Yun knelt down, hugged Li Ying tightly, and said with choked sobs: "Ying'er, it's all dad's fault, he's late."
"Dad, I thought you didn't want me anymore," Li Ying said.
Li Yun held Li Ying, his fearful and uneasy heart gradually calmed down, and he said with a smile in his tears: "No, Ying'er is so good, how could dad not want you?"
"You disappeared. Your mother, grandma, and the village chief uncle were all worried about you. Many people in the village came up the mountain to look for you. We just didn't expect you to fall into the cave."
As he spoke, Li Yun tied the rope to Li Yun's waist and shouted loudly toward the entrance of the cave: "Daughter-in-law, pull Ying'er up."
Grandma Li and Fang Li worked together to pull Li Ying up.
As soon as Li Ying came up, Fang Li hugged Li Ying and cried excitedly.
Grandma Li untied the rope from Li Ying and threw the rope into the hole.
Li Yun grabbed the rope and climbed up. When he saw Fang Li hugging Li Ying and crying, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Mom, don't cry, I'll give you a small yellow croaker." Li Ying said.
Fang Li was stunned when she heard this, little yellow croaker?Why are there fish in the cave? Li Ying opened her small satchel and took out a small yellow croaker and handed it to Fang Li. Li Yun took a flashlight and shined it on Fang Li's hand. When he saw the gold bar in Fang Li's hand, he was immediately happy. His Ying'er had found the treasure!
Fang Li looked at the gold bar in her hand in shock, and she was completely stunned!
Could it be that her Yinger found the legendary treasure? Li Ying took out two more gold bars and handed them to Grandma Li and Li Yun, and said in an old-fashioned way: "Seeing that you haven't forgotten me and come to me in the dark, I will give you one gold bar each."
Li Yun happily took the gold bar and said overjoyed: "I never thought that I, Li Yun, would be able to touch gold bars in this life."
"Dad, Grandpa said these were small yellow croakers. He touched them for me. I asked him for one, but he was unwilling to give it to me because he was worried that I would lose it. Now that I have small yellow croakers of my own, I no longer care about his small yellow croakers." Li Ying said as she patted her little satchel proudly. There were still seven small yellow croakers in her satchel! Li Yun, Grandma Li and Fang Li all looked at Li Ying's small satchel.
