"It's inconvenient, really inconvenient." Niu Qigu's voice was low and heavy. "Although it is secluded here, daily necessities are extremely scarce. We rely entirely on the few acres of thin fields in the village and some wild fruits to make a living. Occasionally someone can go out hunting, but there are wild beasts in the deep forest, and it is very dangerous."

When Lin Congyun heard this, he felt a pain in his heart.

She understood how difficult life these women and children led in this deep forest.

"Have you ever thought about going back?" Lin Congyun asked.

Niu Qigu smiled bitterly and shook her head: "How can we go back? Even if we go back, we will still be worried and scared. It is better to live in this deep forest for the time being."

Lin Congyun listened to Niu Qigu's words and felt full of sympathy, but she couldn't provide them with much help now. The most she could do was to leave some food for them.

Thinking of this, Lin Congyun said, "Seventh Aunt, when we get out, we'll bring some food in for you."

When Niu Qigu heard Lin Congyun's words, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but soon turned dim again, "This... How can this be possible?"

"Why not?" Lin Congyun said quickly, "You saved my family and helped me so much, we should help you."

Niu Qigu waved her hands quickly: "How can this be possible? How can I take your things?"

"Seventh Aunt, please don't be polite. After we get out, you can arrange for someone to lead the way for us, and then we can bring it in for you."

After Lin Congyun finished speaking and was about to leave, Niu Daya, who had just gone out to help look for someone, came back with her people.

Bai Shiqing also went with her. After seeing Lin Congyun, he immediately ran over and said, "Ancestor, we found them."

After hearing this, Lin Congyun was delighted and asked quickly, "Where is the person?"

"To answer the old man's question, they are now temporarily trapped near a swamp, and several of them are injured. When we come back, we should call a few more brothers over to help bring them back."

"Hurry up and ask someone to go." Lin Congyun turned around and said to Fang Deyong, "By the way, ask you, the third brother, to go with them as well."

Fang Deyong nodded quickly: "Okay, I'll follow you right away."

Lin Congyun handed him some medicine and a can of spiritual spring water, and told Fang Deyong, "If the injury is serious, let him drink some of the water first."

Fang Deyong took the things and nodded, "Got it."

Niu Qigu also asked, "Madam, do you want us to arrange a few more people to help?"

Lin Congyun thought for a moment and said, "Not for the time being. We have already caused you so much trouble, and we already have enough people."

When Niu Qigu heard Lin Congyun say this, she stopped insisting.

After Lin Congyun explained these things, he asked Fang Deyong to call other people and follow Bai Shiqing to meet them.

Lin Congyun followed them all the way to the village entrance. When they disappeared from view, he was about to turn around and leave when a crisp "Grandma" broke the silence at the village entrance.

She turned her head and saw a little girl about ten years old, dressed in simple cloth, running towards her.

"Xinxin, are you up?"

Fang Xinxin panted, her face slightly red, and said, "Grandma, I didn't know you were here. It was only after I saw Uncle San that I heard my mother say that Grandma came to see us last night."

Lin Congyun looked at the lively little girl in front of her, her heart full of love. She touched the girl's head and said, "You slept too deeply last night, so your mother didn't wake you up."

Fang Xinxin blinked and said, "Grandma, my mother told me that you brought my eldest brother here as well?"

"Yes!" Lin Congyun held Fang Xinxin's hand and walked back.

Fang Xinxin jumped up happily: "Then, can I see my brother now?"

Lin Congyun looked at Fang Xinxin and said with a smile, "Don't you want to see Xinlei, Xinyue and the others?"

Fang Xinxin tilted her head, thought for a moment and said, "Yes, I do! Grandma, how long can I expect to see them?"

"After your third uncle and his friends find the other uncles, if there is nothing else, we can rush back to meet them."

Fang Xinxin looked excited, "Really? Then I can play with them."

Lin Congyun looked at Fang Xinxin and smiled, "Yes! You can play together from now on."

After saying that, Fang Xinxin took Lin Congyun's hand and skipped towards the village.

Not long after, Fang Deyong and his group returned with the people trapped outside the village.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun hurried forward and asked with concern: "How are the injuries? Is everyone in trouble?"

These people looked a little pale, and their clothes were stained with dirt and grass debris, so it seemed that their injuries were not serious.

A young man struggled to stand up, but seemed unable to do so. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Thank you for your concern, ancestor. We only suffered some minor injuries, nothing serious."

Lin Congyun nodded and signaled everyone to carefully place the wounded in the simple thatched hut in the village.

She noticed that one of the middle-aged men had his legs wrapped in rough cloth, and although the blood had dried, it was obvious that he had suffered serious abrasions.

She turned around and said to Fang Deyong, "Old Third, go get some clean water and clean their wounds first."

Fang Deyong went away in response and brought some clean water in a short while.

Lin Congyun personally cleaned the wounds of the wounded, applied ointment, and gently bandaged them with clean cloth.

After everything was settled, she asked them again in detail about their experiences over the past two days.

It turned out that after they lost their way in the deep forest, they relied on the dry food they carried with them to maintain their physical strength. However, when they set out, they did not bring much dry food with them and they just wanted to find a way out quickly.

Who would have thought that they mistakenly entered the swamp and several people were injured.

Fortunately, Fang Deyong and his team came, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Lin Congyun breathed a sigh of relief after listening to their description. Fortunately, the discovery was made in time.

She looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was already high, so she said, "You guys rest here first. I'll have someone prepare some food for you."

After saying that, Lin Congyun turned around and tried to leave. An injured young man struggled and said, "Ancestor, don't bother. We can still hold on."

Lin Congyun waved his hand and replied: "It's okay, you guys have a good rest."

When they arrived at the thatched hut, Li Hongsui had just finished feeding Fang Xinlei medicine.

"Xinlei, how do you feel today?" Lin Congyun walked forward and looked at Fang Xinlei carefully.

Fang Xinlei saw Lin Congyun coming in and struggled to get up, but Li Hongsui held him down and said, "Don't move."

Fang Xinlei smiled foolishly and nodded to Lin Congyun, "Thank you for your concern, grandma. I feel much better today."
