It seems that you are going to flee from famine, don't be anxious or panic
Chapter 146 Don’t dare
Fortunately, Huo Yu had excellent hearing. After hearing what he said, he said calmly, "Don't worry, you won't die. It cost me 500 taels of silver to save you. Remember to settle it with me when you get better."
500 taels? Aunt Zhou and the others who were eating couldn't help but be surprised when they heard this number. My goodness, what kind of life is this? It's so worth so much.
When Suifeng heard the number, he nodded immediately and said that he would definitely give it. Not to mention 500 taels, he would give 5000 taels.
Judging from the current situation, if he guessed correctly, it was Boss Huo who brought him out of the Dark Night Pavilion. Based on his understanding of Ye Buli, Boss Huo must have made some kind of deal with him, which is why he let Boss Huo bring him out.
As for what the deal was, it was not a good idea to ask now. He would ask after the crowd had left.
Ning Jian, who was standing by, saw Suifeng wake up, so he asked Huo Yun to make him a bowl of soup.
This person has been burning for too long and needs to replenish water.
"Brother, I'll do it myself." Suifeng hurriedly stood up upon hearing that and wanted to go to the table to get a bowl of soup for himself.
Boss Huo has already helped him so much, he can't let his eldest nephew serve him.
But as soon as he moved his leg, he felt a heart-wrenching pain. He forgot that the outer thigh of the leg he moved was injured, and the injury was very serious.
Seeing his face wrinkled in pain, Huo said to him with disdain, "Alright, you're still injured. Just lie down first. When you're healed, you can help me with some more work."
Although he took the medicine, Suifeng's wounds did not heal completely due to the small dosage, especially the deeper wounds, which could easily tear open and bleed again if he moved too much, so it was better for him to lie down for now.
After hearing this, Suifeng nodded awkwardly and said in a hoarse voice, "Then I'll trouble Boss Huo and Gefu."
Huo? didn't say anything, Ning Yan nodded to him.
Huo Yun poured a bowl of soup and held it in his small hands before bringing it to Suifeng: "Uncle Suifeng, have some soup."
The soup was another wild vegetable soup, but this time Ning Yan asked Aunt Zhou to add some medicinal herbs to it, which would be good for the body.
Suifeng looked at the simple soup without any disgust. After thanking Huo Yun, he picked it up and drank it in one gulp. He felt better instantly after drinking it. After drinking it, he asked Huo Yun to make him another bowl. He had been burning for so long and was really thirsty.
After drinking two bowls of soup, he felt much more energetic and had time to look around the place.
After looking around, I realized that this was the yard where Boss Huo and his friends lived before. It was just that many houses had collapsed, so it seemed much emptier and looked like a temporary settlement in the wild.
After looking around, he looked under himself and found that he was sleeping on a straw mat with a stone slab underneath.
Well…….
Boss Huo let a sick man sleep on the stone slab outside the house. He was really generous. He was not worried that he would die from the heat instead of the illness.
But then again, he didn't seem to feel that hot since he woke up. He always felt a cool sensation on his body, without any of the sticky feeling after being soaked in sweat.
After thinking for a while and failing to find the reason, he gave up, thinking that it was because it was already night and the air had become cooler, so he didn't think much about it.
After everyone finished their meal, it was already the hour of Xu and it was almost dark, so they all went to wash up and prepare for bed.
Suifeng wanted to follow Huo and the others into the house to ask about what happened today.
Seeing that he couldn't move, Huo said directly, "Let's talk about it later. Do you still want me to carry you into the house?"
"No... no need." Suifeng immediately shook his head and refused. He didn't dare to be so rude to Huo?
"You can sleep here at night and keep watch with Duan Xiucai and the others." Huo said to him again.
Duan Zhili and his colleagues have always had the habit of taking turns to keep watch at night, mainly for the safety of everyone's life and property.
Now that Suifeng can't move, I can stay and keep watch together. It's hot now anyway, so it's okay to sleep outside. If there are mosquitoes or the like, I can just ask Ning Jian for some insect repellent powder.
Hearing Huo Yu's words, Sui Feng immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
After Huo Yu left, Duan Zhili came over and politely said, "Brother Sui, if you can't sleep outside, you can sleep in our room. It's a bit crowded, though, so don't mind."
There are three rooms in total. The man sleeps in one room, and the other two are given to my aunt, her husband and the children.
Everyone moved their beds and slept on the floor. The space was not small, but it still didn't seem spacious when more than a dozen people were sleeping there.
But they have to leave three people to keep watch outside at night, so it won’t be that crowded.
Moreover, everyone comes from the same village, knows each other, and likes cleanliness, so there is no bad smell like in the big bunk beds in the inn. However, snoring is inevitable, and it is a bit noisy at night.
They had also thought about finding a new house, but after some thought, they decided to give up for the time being. After all, no one knew how long they could live here.
Moreover, it would be better if they lived in a more compact environment so that they could take care of the safety of their family members. The world outside was too chaotic and people could lose their lives if they were not careful. So after some consideration, they decided not to move houses for the time being and to take things one step at a time.
Besides, they have now built a shed outside where they can cook and eat. If you feel crowded, you can sleep in the shed. After all, it's hot, so it's no big deal.
Sui Feng smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll just sleep here and keep watch with you guys."
Duan Zhili nodded upon seeing this and didn't force it.
In the room, after the family of four finished washing up, Ning Yan took Ning Jing to bed, and then took out some meat that he had bought in advance from the space and ate with him.
Huo? and Huo Yun stood under the bed and watched eagerly.
Huo Yun swallowed hard, and with a bitter face, he begged Ning Yan, "Dad, can you give me one duck leg, just one."
Ning Jian ignored him and said slowly, "Whenever you don't obey, you won't have anything to eat."
"Then I promise to listen to you from now on, okay, Dad?" Huo Yun said coquettishly.
"No, you won't have anything to eat today." Ning Yan didn't give him any room to maneuver.
Seeing that Ning Jian was unable to defeat him, Huo Yun said pitifully to Ning Jing, "Brother, let me have a taste of your duck leg."
Ning Jing was gnawing on a duck leg while listening to his brother and father fighting beside him, when he was suddenly "greeted" by Huo Yun. He couldn't help but stop gnawing on the duck leg, looked at Huo Yun, and then turned to look at Ning Yan.
Intimidated by Ning Yan's eyes that said "If you dare to give it to him, you will have nothing to eat", he simply turned around silently and faced Huo Yun with his back, not wanting to see his brother's eyes asking for help.
Brother, look at what our father is like. Do I dare to help you? I don't dare. You're on your own.
When Huo Yun saw Ning Jing's actions, his face immediately fell and he felt completely hopeless.
He could only drool at the duck legs, as he and his brother had no love left.
