"Hey! I know, Master." Zhuzi turned around and ran into the yard to inform his uncles.

After a while, the searching soldiers arrived at the gate of the farm.

As soon as I knocked on the door, Lai Fu opened it.

"Hey! What business do you have, Mr. Bing? It's so late at night..."

Before Lai Fu could finish his words, a soldier came up and pushed Lai Fu away.

"Search for the fugitive and do not stop him!"

With a wave of his hand, several soldiers squeezed into the gate together, and Lai Fu did not stop them.

Standing in the shadow near the door, he quietly took out a few hidden weapons.

With just these few people, he was confident that he could kill them silently.

However, we have to consider that there are other soldiers outside.

After thinking about it, Lai Fu followed the soldiers and entered the yard.

The soldiers' search was similar to a house search, and Lai Fu felt unhappy when he saw the broken farm tools.

At this time, several fellow apprentices in the courtyard also came out and looked at the soldiers with unfriendly eyes.

The leader was quite tactful and reprimanded a few soldiers:

"All of you men, be gentle."

The soldiers responded casually a few times, but finally, seeing that many people came out of the yard, they restrained themselves a little.

Seeing their frank appearance, it was clear that there were no outsiders hiding in this manor. But they still had to investigate. Who dared not to obey orders from above?

What's more, you can take this opportunity to make some money.

Lai Fu waited for these people to look through the crowd for a while before he took out a purse and stuffed it into the hand of the soldier who had just reprimanded his men. It seemed that he was the leader.

"Soldier, you have worked hard. A few small amounts of money are not enough to show respect. My women are timid, so please be more cautious."

A few soldiers looked at the package of filial piety and thought it was acceptable, so they searched it symbolically a few times and then withdrew their troops to the next village.

As soon as the others left, Lai Fu quickly closed the door.

He turned to several fellow apprentices and said:

"I don't know who they are looking for. Although it has nothing to do with us, we should be alert these days and don't cause trouble."

"We all know it. Big brother, you go and have a rest. I will guard the gate for the next few days."

Shitou had heard the sound and was sneaking over. When he realized that they were not targeting them, he told Shiyi and then kept watch nearby, not getting much sleep that night.

Shi Yi slept soundly without any care in the world.

During the previous epidemic, in order to support Lu Xiangsheng's great cause, I worked day and night for several months, and I was really exhausted.

Some time ago, she was enslaved by the second shopkeeper for such a long time, and she had it so hard!

Her ideal life is to sleep until she wakes up naturally. Isn’t it good to be a lazy person?

During these few days with Uncle Lai Fu, I was able to truly relax my body and mind, and unwind without any worries.

After breakfast, I decided to go for an outing with Asan.

Qingqiu insisted on leading the donkey for her today, and Shitou followed quietly. Before they even left the door, Zhuzi was also sent over by Uncle Laifu, and Shiyi...

She just wanted to hang out with Asan. This team is a bit overstaffed!

But can I refuse? Obviously not.

Shi Yi thought, why not... not go out?

I feel a little unwilling!

Why not adjust the plan and take everyone on a picnic? That would be the best of both worlds!

I'm such a clever fellow!

Qingqiu was asked to prepare some things, and a group of people rushed up the mountain in a mighty manner.

Shi Yi took a fruit from Qingqiu's basket and ate it, then rode on the donkey and walked leisurely.

Ah San saw that Shi Yi was chewing it with sweet taste.

The donkey also ran towards Qingqiu's basket.

Qingqiu touched its head, took out a fruit from the basket and handed it to Asan. The little donkey happily took Qingqiu's hand and took a bite.

Shitou swallowed his saliva. Even before he ate it, he felt his mouth was full of saliva, because he had eaten that fruit in the farm before, and it was really sour!

I don’t know how the boss and the donkey ate with such relish.

When they got to the mountain, they found a place not far from the river and started working.

Qingqiu was picking up some dry firewood and branches nearby, while Zhuzi took a bow and arrow and went hunting.

Asan was running around happily and Shiyi didn't care about him.

Anyway, it will find its way back by itself in a while.

Shi Yi also wanted to hunt a pheasant or something, so he installed the sleeve arrow, picked a random direction and went into the woods.

Stone put the bow on the stone and shot an arrow, and an unlucky bird was shot off the branch.

He has very good aim. In the past, he had to risk his life just to have food to eat. In order to keep him alive, his father set strict requirements and high standards for him to learn martial arts.

He had some talent in archery, and could easily use it to hunt.

Because there were only a few of them, they didn't need too many ingredients, so he was very picky and would not hesitate to hunt for anything that didn't taste good.

So he picked and chose, looking for suitable prey, and was not in a hurry.

Coo coo... Coo coo...

When Shitou heard it, his eyes lit up. It was the call of the colorful pheasant.

He carefully avoided the branches and approached quietly.

Sure enough, there was a pheasant on the hillside, digging the soil with its claws from time to time, and then pecking at the small insects in the soil with its sharp beak.

Shitou drew his bow and aimed, patiently waiting for the right moment to release the arrow.

Just as he adjusted his breathing and was about to release the arrow, an arrow flew towards him.

The pheasant's head was nailed to the ground.

Shi Tou was shocked. Are there other people on this mountain?

He swallowed his exclamation, closed his mouth, and watched carefully, wanting to see if the person who shot the pheasant was a hunter?

Or someone?

After a while, a man came out from the bushes. He was not as tall as himself, with delicate features, but he walked very lightly and with a professional posture. He picked up the pheasant and left quickly and neatly.

Shitou concluded that this was a martial artist and didn't look like a hunter.

Shitou stroked his chin and thought for a while, then gave up decisively.

As expected, I am not good at things that require thinking.

As long as they don't come to cause trouble for me, it's fine. In such a big mountain, am I afraid that I won't be able to hunt prey?

Shitou continued to look for prey calmly and was not affected.

After he left, a man appeared from behind a tree not far away, looked at the stone as it walked away, shook his head at his companion, and quietly retreated.

Shitou was unaware that he was in danger and was still walking back happily carrying the rabbit he had just hunted.

Zhuzi didn't walk far before picking up stones near the river and building a simple stove.

When Shi Yi entered the forest, she was concentrating on finding prey at first, but after a while, she realized that the forest was too quiet.

There was not even any bird singing, this was so unusual.

She walked out of the forest as if nothing had happened, with the hair on her body standing up. This forest was too abnormal, too quiet!

Her sixth sense told her: There is danger!

She picked flowers and hummed a song, and soon returned to the river.

Qingqiu had already lit a fire by the river. Shitou turned the stick over and carefully roasted the rabbit. Shiyi calmed his disordered heartbeat and walked slowly towards the fire.

"Is San back?" Shi Yi asked Qing Qiu.
