Unable to contact his grandmother, Hu Ge'er had to turn off his watch.

His grandmother had taught him how to use it, and it required some magic to use the watch.

This spiritual light is not difficult to obtain. You can place it under the sun and slowly absorb the spiritual light.

During the day today, he has been basking in the sun when no one is paying attention.

But after all, the sunlight in this valley was not very good, and he didn't know how much spiritual light had gathered and whether it was enough.

So save whatever you can.

Another thing is that when the dial is lit, it can easily attract other people's attention.

Even though he was surrounded by his classmates, he dared not let others know about the treasure given to him by the immortal.

You have to know that he has only been transferred to this class for a month.

On the day he transferred to the school, he was so much younger than his classmates that they burst into laughter just by looking at him.

If the teacher had not seen him, he would have given the whole class a few questions on the spot and asked him to answer them. When his classmates saw that they could not answer the questions but he could talk about them eloquently, they would have looked at him seriously. They did not have a deep friendship with each other.

Hu Ge'er turned off the watch, quietly reached into his sleeve, took out two pieces of candy from his sleeve pocket, and stuffed them into his mouth silently.

Fortunately, his grandmother often said that it is better to be prepared, so she asked him and Shan Jie'er to always carry various small things they needed. Otherwise, he would be starving tonight.

After swallowing two pieces of candy, Hu Ge'er felt as if he had regained some strength. He hid in the bushes and continued to listen to the discussions of these students.

"Ouch! Something is biting!"

"You won't give me food tomorrow, will you? I am so weak!"

"Brother Liu, what are you eating?"

"That fruit might be poisonous. Brother Liu, don't eat it carelessly!"

"I don't care about that anymore. We're all starving to death. If it's poisonous, then it's poisonous!"

"Hey, those people outside are actually asking for a ransom of 20,000! Even if I sold all my family's property, I still don't have 20,000!"

"I borrowed money to pay for the academy's tuition. I can't even come up with 20,000 taels, let alone 200!"

"There are six brothers in my family. Even if there is really 20,000 yuan, it is impossible for me to spend it all!"

Most of those who discussed the 20,000 yuan ransom were students from Yulin.

Although these students were talented and not necessarily inferior in knowledge to the students from the other two families, their family backgrounds were relatively ordinary. Even if there were some who came from wealthy families, they were only small merchants with a family property of several thousand taels. The ransom of 20,000 yuan sounded like a sky-high price.

Several of them actually started crying as they spoke.

Woo woo woo, if other families have taken out silver to redeem their people, but they don’t, will their lives be in danger?

Hu Ge'er's eyelids drooped slightly.

He believed that if his mother and grandmother knew about the ransom, they would be able to raise enough money even if they had to sell their jewelry and property.

If it was his father who got the news, he would probably be crying like the students from Yulin.

As he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a slight vibration in his forearm, making his wrist a little numb.

This feeling...isn't it the vibrating of the watch?

Hu Ge'er looked around quickly and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he went back into the bushes.

He bent down again and looked at his watch.

Sure enough, it was my grandmother calling!

Although he had already gone into the bushes, there were outsiders not far from him. Even if he tried to keep his voice down, he was afraid of being discovered.

So he pressed twice on the edge of the watch, which opened a small mechanism and took out an object the size of a clove.

His grandmother had taught him the usage and name of this object.

This little thing called headphones is not much bigger than a bean.

But it has endless uses.

Just put the earphones in your ears and you can hear sounds coming from far away.

He put the earphone in one ear.

Just tap your finger and it's connected.

"Brother Hu, is that you?"

Isn't this voice exactly that of my grandmother?

His grandmother even lowered her voice deliberately so that it came through the headphones, and only he could hear it.

Hu Ge'er naturally would not make any sound to attract other people's attention. He just tapped the dial three times with his finger.

This is what his grandmother taught him.

If you are in danger and it is inconvenient to speak, just nod three times gently to mean yes.

Of course, if it is just a moment, it means a negative.

"Brother Hu, are there any robbers around you now?"

No.

"Brother Hu, are you okay?"

Ok.

"Send your location to your grandmother."

Hu Ge'er remembered that his grandmother taught him how to send location information.

So I found the location and emergency icon on the watch face and clicked it.

Hu Ge'er actually doesn't quite understand.

What exactly is this positioning used for?

Although his grandmother told him that once the location was sent, no matter where he was, as long as he was no more than ten miles away from her, her grandmother would know where he was.

But what good would it be even if my grandmother knew he was in this valley?

This valley was like an open-air cage, with the exit guarded by the robbers.

Wasn’t there a strong student who tried to sneakily climb around the edge but was shot dead by the robbers?

There were at least several hundred robbers, all of them ferocious-looking and holding swords.

Just now some students were discussing secretly that those people looked like bloodthirsty people and who knows how many lives their subordinates have taken.

Although my grandmother had a few capable men under her command, there were only about ten of them in total. Even if we included my mother's servants, there were only about twenty people, and they came from outside. How could they be able to defeat those robbers?

After he sent the location, his grandmother started talking.

"Don't be afraid, my grandma will be here to save you soon..."

Brother Hu became anxious when he heard this.

My grandmother is so old, why does it sound like she wants to come in person?

That's so dangerous!

He didn't care about anything else and just wrote on the watch face with his fingers.

"It's dangerous, there are a lot of bad guys, grandma, don't come!"

However, the grandmother said, "Don't be afraid, Brother Hu. Grandmother is under the protection of the immortals."

He wanted to write more, but his grandmother never spoke again.

The call was also disconnected.
