The air after the heavy rain was particularly fresh, with a slight chill, and everyone woke up one after another.

Although the heavy rain has stopped, the mountain road is still muddy and difficult to walk on. If you are not careful, you may roll down the hillside.

Li Mao stood up, took a look, and then called out to everyone.

"It's time for us to continue on our journey. If we walk a little further, we will reach Changping County in the evening."

A group of people, including the villagers of Luohua Village, all stood up and walked along the path down the mountain, everyone followed carefully one by one.

The villagers of Luohua Village walked first, the elderly, women and children walked in the middle, and the exile team followed behind.

Everyone took a step carefully, fearing that they would accidentally push down the person in front of them, thus triggering a chain reaction like dominoes.

"Everyone, please walk carefully, be careful not to slip, and take care of the elderly, children and women." Village chief Zhang shouted loudly in the front.

"Everyone, don't be anxious!" another villager echoed loudly.

Long Yi and Long San were at the end of the team, pushing a cart with Mo Tianyu and Zhang Dayong lying on it.

Mo Tianyu watched his subordinates pushing him with difficulty, and felt a pang of pain in his heart. He was about to stand up and walk by himself...

Long Yi saw it and whispered, "Master Mo, no, you can't expose yourself for the time being."

Mo Tianyu and Zhang Dayong were on the same cart, and Zhang Dayong had already noticed that Mo Tianyu was pretending to be disabled.

But Zhang Dayong knew very well that his benefactor must have some hidden purpose in doing this, so he pretended that he saw nothing.

Mo Tianyu knew very well in his heart that Zhang Dayong had already seen all of this.

However, Mo Tianyu had no intention of avoiding him at all.

One of the reasons for this is that he wanted to take this opportunity to test what kind of person Zhang Dayong is.

Another reason is that he will definitely need to stand directly in front of many people at that time.

So, for these things, whether you know them early or late, it’s actually the same.

Seeing that there was no expression on Zhang Dayong's face, he didn't ask too many questions.

Mo Tianyu was very satisfied and secretly admired Ye Zirou's good vision in people.

Of course, Long Yi understood Mo Tianyu's concern for his subordinates, but they hoped to protect Mo Tianyu more.

"Master Mo, don't worry, we'll be fine. Please lie down and rest."

When Zhang Dayong heard this, he felt a little guilty and thought that he shouldn't be lying on the cart, so he tried to get up and get off.

Seeing this, Mo Tianyu quickly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Brother Zhang, your foot injury has not fully recovered yet, so you'd better lie down obediently."

"My foot is basically healed now and I can move freely," Zhang Dayong insisted.

"No, Brother Zhang, if you force yourself to get out of bed, it will aggravate your injury and make it more difficult to recover. You'd better lie down." Mo Tianyu advised hurriedly.

At this time, Ye Zirou walked in front of them and heard their entire conversation.

She stopped and turned around, speaking sternly.

"Both of you stay still and don't talk. You two are the only ones who want to take off your legs. Do you want to amputate them?"

Mrs. Zhang also said, "Husband, listen to Miss Ye."

Ye Zirou's sudden scolding frightened the two men so much that they dared not speak anymore and just looked at each other in bewilderment.

Mo Tianyu smiled awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, Brother Zhang, my wife is just like that. Please bear with me!"

Zhang Dayong also responded with a smile.

"I understand, I understand. My wife feels the same way."

The two men looked at each other, then looked at their wives, then smiled at each other and stopped moving.

Xiaoqing and Xiaoling in front supported each other and moved forward slowly.

Suddenly, Xiaoqing slipped and almost fell. Fortunately, Xiaoling was quick-witted and caught her, preventing her from falling to the ground.

"Xiaoqing, are you okay?" Xiaoling asked nervously, her voice full of concern.

Xiaoqing patted her chest, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "I was scared to death."

She was still frightened and looked at Xiao Ling with gratitude.

"It's okay, thanks to you, thank you."

"It's good that you're okay. Let's walk slowly." Xiao Ling's tone relaxed a little, but still contained a hint of caution.

Xiaoqing nodded, a hint of gratitude and relief flashing in her eyes.

This scene happened to be seen by Long Yi. He was frightened and wanted to rush forward, but the cart in his hand suddenly loosened, but he quickly held on to it tightly.

He knew very well that he must not let go of the cart. If he did, both he and the cart would fall to the ground.

Mo Tianyu and Zhang Dayong on the cart noticed Long Yi's nervousness, smiled at each other, and understood what was going on.

In a blink of an eye, everyone arrived at the foot of the mountain and was about to separate.

Mo Tianyu looked at Doctor Bai, frowning slightly, with a hint of reluctance in his voice.

"Yi Chen, you really don't want to go with us?"

Doctor Bai smiled slightly, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

"No, I have been away from Baiyi Valley for a while. It is time to go back and see the old master of the valley. I am also curious about who the woman in the portrait is and why she looks so similar to Madam."

Seeing that he was so persistent, Mo Tianyu felt reluctant but could only nod.

"Okay, then you can also give him your regards for me. Once we settle down, we'll go to Baiyi Valley to find you."

"Okay! See you later!" Doctor Bai bowed.

Village Chief Zhang said to Ye Zirou with a big smile on his face, "Madam Mo, you are welcome to come to our Luohua Village in the future. We will definitely entertain you and your friends well."

Ye Zirou smiled, took out a small bag of beef jerky from her sleeve and handed it to Village Chief Zhang.

"Okay, I will definitely go! Please accept this gift."

Ever since Ye Zirou gave Village Chief Zhang some beef jerky in the cave, he and his family tasted it and could not forget the flavor.

Beef jerky is not only delicious, but also easy to carry and filling.

For country people, they usually can’t afford to eat meat. They only eat it during festivals or happy events in the village.

But Village Chief Zhang kept waving his hands.

"No, no! You have a long journey ahead, so you should save the food for the journey."

Ye Zirou patted her big sleeves lightly, smiling.

"Village Chief, don't be polite to me. Just take it. I have a lot more. Don't worry!"

Seeing her persistence, Village Chief Zhang was moved, smiled slightly and nodded.

"Okay, then I'll accept it. Thank you, Madam Mo."

At this time, Li Mao interrupted everyone with a hurried voice.

"Everyone, let's get going quickly, otherwise we won't be able to reach Changping County before dark and we'll have to sleep outdoors in the mountains again."

When everyone heard this, they said goodbye and continued on their journey to their next destination.
