Chapter 31
Mrs. Chen originally hadn't thought about Wan's entry into the mountains, but now that Gu Yuan and Su Wan were going, she also realized this and quickly called Old Man Gu, "Old man, you take Erniu, Sanniu and Yuan
Brother, follow the boss to find someone.
Bring the flints and make more torches when it gets dark."
Listening to Mrs. Chen's tone, everyone knew that Mr. Wan might have gone into the mountains. There were many beasts and insects in the mountains, especially since there was a disaster this year. Those ferocious beasts couldn't find food. Let alone people entering the mountains.
In the next village, wolves and wild boars have entered the village and caused trouble.
The Gu family father and son did not dare to be careless. They quickly brought sickles and other small and handy weapons with them, and prepared to follow Old Man Gu up the mountain to find someone.
Su Wan also took out a wood-cutting knife and stuck it on her body, and silently prepared to follow everyone.
But before she left, she felt a shadow covering her eyes. She raised her head and met Gu Yuan's dark and deep eyes.
"It's very dangerous in the mountains. Don't go there. Just stay at home and wait for me to come back."
Su Wan looked at Gu Yuan's handsome face that was 360 degrees, and suddenly felt that his heartbeat had skipped a beat, and his eyes were fixed on Gu Yuan for a moment.
Look at handsome guys, look at them openly, there is no shame in them!
Su Wan didn't feel shy at all, but Gu Yuan's ears turned red when she looked at her. He looked away embarrassedly, and said with a rare hint of panic in his usually calm voice: "I, I'll go first.
Already."
"Oh." Su Wan responded obediently and followed him naturally.
Gu Yuan turned to look at her again. Before Gu Yuan could start to speak, she looked at Gu Yuan with a pair of bright deer eyes and said seriously and firmly: "I can help."
Gu Yuan suddenly thought of the way she protected him when she asked him to stand behind her in a serious manner yesterday.
Look at her small body like bean sprouts, forget it, let her follow if she wants, they won't be so unlucky, they really encountered a ferocious beast.
"Then follow me closely later." Gu Yuan told her before walking towards the mountain.
Gu Daniu had reached the foot of the mountain at this time, but he looked around at the roads up the mountain that were trampled by people. He scratched the back of his head and was confused. Which road should he take?
"Brother!" Gu Erniu shouted to the figure scratching the back of his head at the foot of the mountain.
Gu Daniu turned around in surprise and looked at his father and three brothers, "Dad, Er Niu, San Niu, A Yuan, why are you all here?"
When the group of people got closer, he noticed the little Su Wan following Gu Yuan, and said in surprise: "Hey, why are the fourth younger siblings here too?
I'm afraid we have to go up the mountain later, and it won't be convenient for our four younger siblings to follow us..."
Gu Daniu scratched the back of his head, trying to make his words more tactful, but the expression on his face could be seen by anyone that he disliked Su Wan for being a burden after going up the mountain.
Su Wan didn't blame him. After all, her current small body did make people misunderstand her strength.
When Gu Yuan explained to Gu Daniu that Wan might have gone to look for ginseng where they found it yesterday, Su Wan had already carefully identified the footprints on the ground and determined Wan's path up the mountain.
Fortunately, it rained heavily last night. Although the sun shines brightly for another day today, there are some trees on the mountain road blocking the way, the ground is still somewhat muddy, and there are still traces of Wan's footprints.
After Gu Yuan and Gu Daniu finished explaining, Su Wan said: "Sister-in-law, take this road up the mountain. Let's go this way."
It was already dark, so Old Man Gu lit the pine trees on fire with a flint and gave each of them one, and the six of them hurried into the mountains.
Gu Yuan and Su Wan walked in the front.
Su Wan wanted to quickly get to the place where the ginseng was dug, and then look for it to see which direction Wan had gone.
But as she was walking, a big hand grabbed her small hand, and she turned to look at Gu Yuan in surprise.
Under the weak light of Song Mingzi, there was no unnecessary expression on Gu Yuan's face. Seeing Su Wan looking at him, he said righteously: "It's dark and the road is still a bit slippery. Hold me and don't fall."
Su Wan instantly felt that she was thinking too much. How could Young Cao deliberately tease her?
