Shen Yitian's voice made Yuan Dutou breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, he had received a lot of benefits from the Shen family, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Shen Yitian.

But Song Yuerong brought her to the public, so he couldn't be too blatant in favor of Shen Yitian.

He felt relieved now that Shen Yitian was here. It must be Song Yuerong who was deliberately causing trouble.

However, he still frowned and looked in the direction where Shen Yitian raised her hand, and asked in a cold voice: "Why are you standing at the back?"

"I sprained my ankle." Shen Yitian said very sincerely.

Song Yuerong sneered, "Humph, you want to be lazy if you want to be lazy. You're sitting in the back and you're saying you twisted your ankle. Do you think Yuan Dutou is a pig who will believe anything you say?"

"Shut up." Yuan Dutou couldn't stand it anymore and shouted directly.

"You still haven't learned your lesson from letting me blow in the cold wind yesterday. Come on, give her two lashes to teach her a lesson."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu took the whip from Brother Hu next to him and walked towards Song Yuerong with a sneer.

In an instant, the people who were originally standing next to Song Yuerong scattered, fearing that they would be accidentally injured by the whip if they walked too slowly.

Xiao Yu was also very smart. He pulled Song Yuerong aside and didn't want to hurt anyone else by mistake.

He was not a man who liked to hit people, but Song Yuerong was so annoying that he couldn't help but want to whip her a few times.

Mother Song screamed and suddenly turned around to look at Shen Yitian.

She didn't understand why Song Yuerong was always punished these two days, but every time it was related to Shen Yitian.

Song Yuerong was dragged to the cave entrance to get some fresh air yesterday, and she already had a cold. Today, she kept saying she had no strength.

If he were to be whipped twice more and injured at this time, he would definitely have a fever.

They are now trapped in this desolate mountain. If Song Yuerong really has a fever, where can she find a doctor?

Even though she told herself again and again that she had to tolerate Shen Yitian, she couldn't help it this time.

"Tian'er, your sister is going to be punished again, and you don't say anything?" she asked in a slightly cold voice.

Shen Yitian shrugged innocently: "I'm an exiled prisoner, what can I say?"

"Get started!" Yuan Dutou gave the order directly.

Song's mother was extremely anxious. Seeing Xiao Yu holding the whip high, she rushed over, but she only had time to block one whip for Song Yuerong.

"Tian'er, you are so cold-hearted that you just watched your sister get beaten." Mother Song asked sharply.

Shen Yitian still looked as if it had nothing to do with her: "But what can I do? How about this, I'll just close my eyes and not open them."

After saying that, she actually closed her eyes and turned her head to the side.

Xiao Yu was amused by her action and said, "The boss only said two lashes, isn't that enough? You don't need to close your eyes."

Yuan Dutou nodded, and seeing that everyone was there, he asked everyone to continue looking for the way.

"I still say the same thing as before, don't go too far, and don't even think about running away. I'll call you over every half hour to count the number of people. Anyone who goes too far and doesn't come back will be considered to have run away," he said with cold eyes.

Shen Yitian pinched the fried cake in her hand and then limped forward.

"How did you twist your ankle?" Yuan Dutou asked casually when he saw her limping.

He didn't quite believe what Song Yuerong said, but he didn't take it completely lightly.

Shen Yitian didn't keep the secret and said honestly: "When I was looking for the way over there, I accidentally fell into a hunter's trap. Fortunately, the hunter saved me and gave me some cakes."

After saying that, he handed the bread to him and added, "When the hunter gave me the bread, it was still warm. He must have come down from the mountain. But by the time I realized what was happening, he had already gone far away and I couldn't catch up with him."

When Yuan Dutou heard her say this, his eyes lit up.

"So, there is indeed another way to go up the mountain?"

"There must be one, but we haven't found it yet." Shen Yitian was also very sure.

Song Yuerong was held in her mother's arms. When she heard Shen Yitian's words, she suddenly raised her head and looked at her fiercely.

She had met a man before. He had a beard and dark skin. She thought he was the hunter Shen Yitian mentioned.

But why is it that the hunter they met both had pancakes, but Shen Yitian didn’t?

She was so angry that her teeth itched, but Shen Yitian didn't take the pancake that Yuan Dutou handed over. She said, "I can't finish this pancake either. I'll give it to you."

Song Yuerong was so angry. Shen Yitian really made her mad.

The oil paper package looks greasy, and the pancake inside is obviously made with a lot of oil.

She hadn't eaten much for two days, and just thinking about the fried pancakes made her feel empty in her stomach.

Why would Shen Yitian give such a good thing to those officials? She was still hungry!

At the same time, she also hated the hunter who gave Shen Yitian the cookies.

Yuan Dutou ate a green date that Shen Yitian sent him in the morning, but he wasn't really that hungry.

It was already noon and he was starving.

But he didn't keep all of the two pancakes given by Shen Yitian.

He only tore off a small piece from it and handed it to Xiaoyu.

"Come on, share some with everyone. Eat something so you have the strength to continue looking for the way."

Xiao Yu looked at Shen Yitian with gratitude. He knew that the Shen family always had good things!

These two pancakes are not big. There are more than ten people including the officials and Yuan Dutou, and each person can't eat a very big piece.

But in this situation, having a bite to eat was good enough. Shen Yitian's words just now gave everyone some hope, and after eating a little more, they instantly felt alive again.

According to Shen Yitian, Yuan Dutou led everyone to the other half of the mountain. This mountain must be a place where people often come to hunt or chop wood. There are no main roads, but there are a lot of intricate small paths.

There may even be a small path between two big trees, which is not obvious but can be passed by people.

This situation is the most difficult to find the way. You have to look at every road. Maybe the most inconspicuous one is the way down the mountain.

Moreover, the road often forks, and sometimes a fork in the road will appear when walking alone, which is very troublesome.

I don’t know how long everyone was circling around, but finally, when Shen Yitian started to feel hungry again, they heard a cry of surprise.

The crowd, who had been concentrating on finding the way and didn't even have the energy to speak, suddenly looked up and looked towards the direction where the sound came from.

Hope ignited in everyone's listless eyes. Could it be that someone had found the way down the mountain with this exclamation?

Great, they can finally go down the mountain and finally have something to eat!

So everyone ignored their tiredness and immediately supported each other and rushed towards the direction where the sound came from.

For those young like Fuguier and Song Xiaer who couldn't walk, their mother would just pick them up and run over there.

Only Shen Yitian frowned, feeling a little strange as she looked over there.

That's the place we just looked for, and that's the place everyone was looking for when they first came here. Is there really a way down the mountain?
