Chapter 20
Li Ying saw Li Yun, Grandma Li and Fang Li looking at her small satchel with burning eyes. She immediately covered it, looked at them like a wolf, and said warily: "The little yellow croaker in the bag is mine, how can you do it?" You can’t steal my little yellow croaker.”
Grandma Li and Fang Li both laughed when they heard this. They were just curious about how many gold bars there were in Li Ying's bag.
Although Li Yun liked money, he was more concerned about Li Ying's physical condition. Seeing that Li Ying's body was dirty, the gauze on her forehead was missing, and the wounds looked more injured, he hurriedly asked: "Ying'er, are you Injuried?"
Li Ying reached out and touched the injury on her forehead, and said aggrievedly: "When I fell, I hit the stone."
"Why are you so careless?" Li Yun said distressedly.
When Li Ying heard this, she immediately became unhappy and complained: "Do I like falling? It was the eldest brother and the second brother who left me alone on the mountain. They didn't take me home when it was almost dark. I went home by myself." I met a big snake with golden eyes. It stood up and hissed at me. It looked so fierce and scary."
"As soon as I got scared, I ran away. While running, I hit a rock and fell, hitting my head on the rock..."
Li Ying narrated what she had encountered, and as she spoke, she began to cry aggrievedly.
Li Yun gently wiped the tears from Li Ying's face, feeling extremely distressed, and coaxed her with gentle words.
Li Yun suddenly discovered that Li Ying seemed to be born with the ability to sense whether a person was malicious to her. Just like she would never take the initiative to approach Li Guorong and Li Guoqing. Even when she saw Li Xueer, she would subconsciously avoid it. She did not expect that she could also sense animals. Do you have any ill intentions towards her?
Li Ying thought of the cobra looking at her coldly and hissing at her. She was still scared now, even more scared than if she fell in a cave.
Grandma Li and Fang Li burst into tears after listening to Li Ying's story. How could Guorong and Guoqing be so cruel to throw Ying'er up the mountain alone? If Ying'er hadn't been clever, what they saw now would be Ying'er's body.
"Ying'er, dad will vent your anger and give your eldest brother and second brother a whip with a whip." Li Yundao said.
Li Ying touched her aching forehead and said angrily: "You have to beat the eldest brother and the second brother so hard that they cry for father and mother."
When Li Yun heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said dotingly: "Okay, I will follow you, I promise to beat your eldest brother and second brother until they cry."
Li Ying nodded with satisfaction, this was pretty much it, otherwise her pain would have been in vain.
Fang Li gently stroked Li Ying's forehead, "Ying'er, you fell from such a high place, were you injured anywhere?"
"Mom, there are thick leaves under the hole, and I am not injured." Li Ying replied.
When Fang Li and Grandma Li heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief. They felt relieved that everything was fine.
Li Yun saw Li Ying's bulging little shoulder bag and joked: "Ying'er, you have so many little yellow croakers, you will be a rich man in the future, and dad will follow you to eat well and drink spicy food. I will envy Lin Qingxuan and others to death."
Grandma Li slapped Li Yun on the arm and scolded with a smile: "Stop it, don't let the news about Ying'er finding the baby get publicized. We only need to know."
"Mom is right. I'm worried that after the news comes out, people from the village and outside the village will flock to the mountains to look for the treasure. Those aunts and uncles who haven't been in touch for a long time will come to borrow money." Fang Li echoed.
Li Yun picked up Li Ying and whispered: "Yinger, you are not allowed to tell anyone about finding the little yellow croaker, not even your grandfather."
When Li Ying heard that she couldn't tell anyone that she had found the treasure, she pouted unhappily and said, "Dad, I also want to tell Shuanzi and Shitou that I found many small yellow croakers and that I am the richest cub in the village. Let them They all envy me." "Ying'er, if you don't show off your wealth, if you tell others, others will snatch your little yellow croaker." Li Yun said.
Li Ying clutched her small satchel and said, "That's right! Even you want to snatch my little yellow croaker, Shitou and the others must want to snatch my little yellow croaker even more."
Li Yun was stunned by what Li Ying said. How could he answer it?
Seeing that Li Ying was in good condition, Grandma Li said with a smile: "It's so late at night and I'm so scared on the mountain. Let's go home quickly."
The family rushed home through the night. Li Ying leaned in Li Yun's arms and fell asleep in a daze.
When they were about to reach the fork in the road, they saw a white shadow under the big tree at the fork in the road. When the wind blew, the white shadow swayed with the wind. The three of them stopped involuntarily and subconsciously turned off the flashlights in their hands.
Fang Li asked with some fear: "Mom, when we went up the mountain, did you see the white cloth hanging on the tree?"
"I didn't pay attention." Grandma Li said.
Li Yun remembered that this was where he found Li Guoqing and Li Guorong. When he found them, he was obviously frightened. He thought they had lost Ying'er and felt guilty and scared.
Maybe he was thinking wrong. They should have been frightened when they saw the white shadow.
Li Yun turned on the flashlight and mustered up the courage to move forward. "It's just a shadow. There's nothing to be afraid of."
He does not do evil things, and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. He, Li Yun, lives an open life and is not afraid of those bad things.
Grandma Li thought about it. A living person is afraid of death and ghosts. She took Fang Li's hand and followed Li Yun. The closer she got to the fork in the road, the deeper her fear became. Every step forward required a lot of courage.
In the dark night, the only sounds of "tap, tap, tap" footsteps could be heard, as well as their heavy breathing.
Grandma Li and Fang Li felt the sound of slight footsteps coming from behind them. Their expressions changed drastically. They looked at each other and involuntarily looked at each other. They both stopped and listened carefully. They didn't hear any sound. They should have It was because they were hallucinating, so they continued on their way, and then there was the sound of slight footsteps behind them. They stopped again, and found that they heard nothing.
Grandma Li and Fang Li caught up with Li Yun, and at the same time reached out and grabbed the clothes on Li Yun's back. The man was so angry that ghosts didn't dare to get close, so they grabbed Li Yun's clothes to make them feel safe.
Li Yun's body stiffened slightly, my mother!He is also scared, okay!
"Hey!" A vague sigh sounded in the air.
Grandma Li and Fang Li's backs were numb, their hairs stood up, their breathing slowed down, and they felt like something was surrounding them, making their hair stand on end.
Li Yun's scalp felt numb and his heart was trembling, but he couldn't show his timidity and walked forward. When he passed under the big tree, Li Yun's head hit something, and his heart suddenly lifted, and he held Li Ying's hand. Subconsciously, I tensed up and raised my feet to run, but when I thought of my mother and daughter-in-law following behind me, I put my feet down again.
You can't run away. If he runs away, my mother and daughter-in-law will be frightened to death. He is the head of the family, the support and spiritual support of my mother and daughter-in-law, and he must be steady.
Grandma Li and Fang Li walked behind Li Yun. Under the light of the flashlight, they saw a pair of feet on Li Yun's head. They almost couldn't help but scream, fearing that they would scare Li Yun to death. Both of them subconsciously He let go of his hand and covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.
