This time, Yan Zhenshen tied the man up, and it was really a tight tying up. Even if he wanted to use the stone demon to tie the hemp rope, he would not be able to find a foothold.

No matter how they begged for mercy, Yan Zhenshen remained silent. When he saw the dead man with a bamboo stick stuck in his neck, he did not say anything.

After tying up the man, they got some stones and tried to block the entrance of the cave to prevent wild beasts from coming out at night. Tomorrow, they would probably only see a few gnawed corpses.

After he finished his work, Chu Xiao slowly threw a forget-me-not flower in: "Let them sleep well."

Yan Zhenshen shook his head and smiled helplessly. His husband didn't take it out at the beginning, probably because he wanted these people to run away.

"Want to let them go?" Yan Zhenshen asked on the way back.

Chu Xiao yawned: "If he really runs away, we will chase him tomorrow morning. Do you think we can meet him at the foot of the mountain?"

"No." Yan Zhenshen denied without hesitation: "If they see you going east, they will definitely run west, and if you want to go down the mountain, you will definitely encounter wolves."

Chu Xiao shrugged, thinking that this should be the case. Even if the person is not dead when he is caught, he still needs to go through great trouble to get him back, which will delay things and cause trouble.

We can only blame him for not thinking too much at the time. In order to restrict his movements, most of the bandages were placed on his legs and feet.

Early the next morning, Yan Zhenshen went down the mountain to look for Zunyuan Hou's men. Chu Xiao had nothing to do and went to the cave to take a look. There was no light inside and he couldn't see the specific situation, but he could hear snoring one after another, so there should be someone still asleep.

A non-stop round trip would take nearly five hours according to Brother Shen's walking speed. By now the daylight hours were gradually shortening, and by the time people came back they could basically prepare dinner.

I don’t know how many people will come to the meeting this time, and whether he needs to provide meals.

People can't always be idle, otherwise the waiting time will be infinitely extended, so Chu Xiao continued to do what he had to do and picked all the persimmons that could be picked from the remaining persimmon trees on the west side.

He also hit a few fairly large birds with stones. He had no idea what kind of birds they were, and had no idea if they were edible, but he could take them back to feed the hunting dogs.

When passing by a wild fruit tree, Chu Xiao saw that the leaves had all fallen, but the wild fruits were still hanging stubbornly on the tree, so he wondered whether he should pick them up.

Although the fruit, which has been hit by frost and has lost its moisture, is not tasty, the silly roe deer probably won't mind.

After all, the hay is probably more unpalatable than these dried fruits.

The silly roe deer really didn't care. Without the threat from the wolf cub, he ate very leisurely and didn't seem to be too wary of humans.

Taking advantage of the good weather today, Chu Xiao went to the bamboo forest to cut some bamboo. Both his bamboo sticks and the bamboo arrows used by Brother Shen would be used.

This will add some more polish, and when you have nothing to do at home in winter, you can take it out and slowly polish it.

If he sees bamboo shoots, he will break them off. It's been cold lately, so the bamboo shoots are not only thin, but also sparse and there are not many of them.

However, he spent quite a bit of time at home this year. He and his third sister went to the Nanshan bamboo forest quite often. Apart from those that were dried, he still had some left in his space.

Feeling that the time was about right, his brother Shen should be back soon, he took out a bamboo basket from the space and filled it with bamboo shoots. He did not put it back, but just carried it back.

As soon as I approached the thatched hut, I heard someone shouting, "Chu Xiao."

Chu Xiao subconsciously stopped and looked back, just in time to see a large group coming up from the other side.

At a glance, there were at least twenty people. Chu Xiao looked down at the bamboo shoots in the bamboo basket. With so many people, he would have to bleed a lot today. He didn't know whether Bai Hao could remember to give him the meal money.

"Oh, I'm so tired from the journey." Bai Hao jogged over, breathing heavily, and sweat was clearly visible on his forehead.

"Why did you come up here too?" Chu Xiao looked at him in confusion. He didn't know how dangerous this deep mountain was. If he met someone who wanted to kill him, he would expect him and Brother Shen, two ordinary people, to risk their lives for him.

What's the matter with "My Lord, you retreat first, I'll hold you here"? This is all bullshit. He could only say "Brother Shen, run quickly, these people are coming for that idiot."

"Let's go out for a walk. This time we've brought a lot of people." Bai Hao touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, "Well, after you told me last time, I went back to discuss it with Lei Huo. I also felt that I was too reckless sometimes."

As he said this, he sighed: "To be honest, I just want to earn money day by day. I don't care about 2.5 or 80,000 yuan. Every day I live is money. I can live as long as I want."

Seeing Chu Xiao looking at him expressionlessly, he lowered his voice again: "I also know that I am a big trouble, and I almost implicated you and your man. I apologize to you."

"Just an apology like that?" Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows, obviously not satisfied with what he said.

"Then how do we apologize?" Bai Hao said quickly, "Hey, is it possible that if an apology is useful, why do we need the police?"

After saying this, he couldn't help laughing: "Have you heard this before?"

Chu Xiao was so upset. How could this person go off track when he couldn't even say a few serious words?

"Come into the yard and have some water." Yan Zhenshen called out. Bai Hao did not move, and none of his guards dared to enter the yard.

After all, this was an era when the class system was very serious, and the concept of superiors and inferiors was deeply rooted in people's minds. If Zunyuan Hou did not move and someone entered the yard first, he could be charged with disrespect and even beheaded.

This is the reason why Chu Xiao didn't want to have any contact with any big shots from the beginning to the end. Otherwise, with his current abilities, it would not be impossible for him to become a general.

At worst, his special ability can enhance his vitality. If he appears in front of the emperor, he will surely be full of energy, and the three thousand beauties in the harem will not be a complete waste.

High-ranking officials dare not even think about it, but there must be high salaries.

However, this was just Chu Xiao's idea to amuse himself when he was bored. As the saying goes, serving a king is like serving a tiger. He had heard in the base that when the managers were on a mission, they used the people around them to block attacks.

If an ordinary manager of a base is like this, he wouldn't even dare to think about it in this world. Wouldn't he be at risk of being taken advantage of at any moment?

So many people are plotting against a crazy and stupid marquis. The more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.

"Well, let's go into the yard first." Chu Xiao saw a guard carrying something that looked like a wooden board, so he asked, "Use this to carry the person down?"

"Let's see who he is. If he's useful, keep him. If he's useless, just..." Bai Hao said as he made a gesture of wiping his neck: "This matter is not my business. Anyway, I've never even killed a chicken."

"Are you scared?" Chu Xiao asked when he saw him pouting and looking reluctant.

"I was scared at first. The first time I saw a dead person, I had nightmares for seven or eight nights. I gave myself a national treasure-level black eye. But now I'm used to it. As long as I don't do it myself, it's fine."

Fortunately, the war was over when he came here, otherwise if he was asked to lead the troops to fight, haha... he could let the people of the whole country witness the most important deserter in history.
