Li Yong swam over with just a few strokes and finally caught the drowning person.

When Su Ying saw this, she grabbed the rope in her hand and pulled him out of the water.

Li Yong dragged the person to the sh.o.r.e. He was a young boy.

Su Ying went forward to check if he was still breathing. She asked someone to carry him and hang him upside down while running back and forth. He would be fine after he vomited out the water in his stomach.

The woman who was shouting for help ran over. “Little Yuan, Little Yuan, are you okay?”

The guards from the Tiger Base carried the boy and ran a few rounds. Then, when they heard the boy cough, they placed him on a stone block.

“Miss, he has vomited out the water that he had swallowed. He should be fine now.”

…..

The boy regained consciousness slowly after the guard finished speaking.

He opened his eyes, appearing somewhat dazed. “Elder… Elder Sis…”

“Little Yuan, it’s great that you’re fine. I was almost scared to death.” The woman hugged the boy tightly. As she was too frightened, her face was still a little pale.

“Young lady, where are you from, and why are you here?”

Li Yong asked as he walked up to the siblings while trying to shake his dripping wet clothes dry.

“Thank you, big brother, for saving his life. Thank you, big brother,” the woman said gratefully as she looked at him.

Li Yong waved his hand in embarra.s.sment. He looked at the woman’s fair little face and swallowed nervously. “Miss, where are you guys staying? It’s not safe in this forest. I’ll get someone to send you back.”

The woman wiped her eyes and shook her head. “We live in the mountains and are very familiar with this area. It’s just that today, when my younger brother went into the water to fish, he suddenly had a cramp in his leg, so he almost drowned. Thank you so much, big brother. We’ll be leaving now.”

The woman helped the boy up and left after she nodded in acknowledgment in Su Ying’s direction.

Li Yong watched the woman leave so reluctantly that his neck was stretched very far out.

As he stood mesmerized, the rope around his waist was yanked abruptly. Li Yong raised his head in annoyance and his eyes met Su Ying’s slightly chilly almond-shaped eyes.

He laughed in an ingratiating manner. “Let’s catch fish. Let’s catch fish.”

Su Ying cast her net out again, but after more than two hours, the number of fish she caught was still very small. She handed the net to Li Yong and the others and let them use it instead.

Su Ying went to the woods and picked up a long branch. She then took out a cord from her interspatial store and attached it to the stick before putting a hook at the cord’s end. She then attached a small fish to the hook and cast the fis.h.i.+ng line.

Before long, there was movement in the water.

Su Ying slowly pulled the line back. “Got one!” She lifted the fis.h.i.+ng line in her hand and a big fish jumped out of the water. Li Yong saw it and quickly took a big winnowing basket to put the fish in.

“You caught it! You caught it! Mother caught a big fis.h.!.+ Mother is so powerful!”

“In a while, Mother wall catch you a bigger one.” Su Ying pulled the fis.h.i.+ng line back and put another bait on. This bait contained a certain amount of feeding attractant, and the fish would gather around once they smelled the bait.

While Su Ying and the others were busy catching fish by the stream, Lin Zhuyu and the others were also working hard to gather firewood.

It was already late autumn, and the weather was relatively dry. There was more firewood on the mountain which could be used without drying.

Lin Zhuyu put the firewood in the cart. They had already gathered up most of the firewood around them. If they wanted to gather more, they had to go deeper into the mountain.

For safety’s sake, Lin Zhuyu asked Jiang Yang, who was nearby, to go with her.

“There seem to be some wild vegetables ahead. Jiang Yang, you go and gather firewood. I’ll go pick some wild vegetables. Mistress and the others love to eat them.”

Jiang Yang surveyed the surroundings and thought that there shouldn’t be any danger since Su Ying and the others were just ahead not far away. He said with a nod, “Mm-hmm. Be careful. If you need anything, just shout.”

Lin Zhuyu nodded. She carried the bamboo backpack on her back and went to pick wild vegetables.

Lin Zhuyu began plucking the tender shoots of the wild vegetable. Uncle Hea had said that this kind of vegetable would taste especially refres.h.i.+ng and fragrant after a quick dip in hot water and drizzled with a little sesame oil.

Everyone had eaten too much meat these few days and wanted to change to something lighter, so she wanted to pluck more. The more she plucked, the deeper she went into the mountain.

She didn’t even notice that the light around her had dimmed.

Behind Lin Zhuyu, a figure was approaching quietly.

Just as Lin Zhuyu stood up and was about to put the wild vegetables in the bamboo backpack, two people suddenly rushed forward and grabbed her from behind. They covered her mouth and nose with the handkerchief they had prepared.

Lin Zhuyu’s eyes widened in shock. However, before she could even react, everything turned black before her eyes and she pa.s.sed out.

When the other party saw that she had pa.s.sed out, he took out a gunnysack and put it over her head before carrying her deep into the mountains.

“Sheng’er, if you’re tired, go play with Ling and Ji by the stream. Let Mother gather the firewood.”

Today, Zhang Cuiniang and Lin Sheng also came along, but Lin Sheng did not follow Ji and Ling to go watch Su Ying catch fish. Instead, he followed Zhang Cuiniang to gather firewood.

With one armful of firewood, Lin Sheng shook his head and said, “I’m not going, Mother. I’ll help you gather firewood.”

Zhang Cuiniang was touched by her son’s thoughtfulness, but she also felt sorry for him.

“Come, this firewood is too heavy. Don’t damage your body with too much weight. Let me do it. You wait for Mother here. Mother will come to look for you after taking the firewood to the front.”

“I know, Mother. I won’t wander away.”

After making sure her son would stay there obediently, Zhang Cuiniang carried the firewood and walked to the cart in front.

As soon as she left, two people appeared behind Lin Sheng.

Lin Sheng was picking up firewood when he suddenly saw two pairs of shoes behind him. He stood up warily and turned around, but before he could react, the other party grabbed him and covered his mouth and nose.

“Oof! Oof!” Little Lin Sheng struggled to press the switch on his bracelet, but the other party held his hands tightly, and he had no way to break free at all!

Soon, little Lin Sheng stopped struggling.

After seeing that the child had pa.s.sed out, the two guys put a gunnysack directly over the child’s head and carried him deep into the mountains.

When Zhang Cuiniang returned, she saw the firewood scattered all over the ground. She became panic-stricken and began to search for the child. “Sheng’er, Sheng’er…Oof!”

Just as Zhang Cuiniang walked into the forest, someone rushed out and covered her mouth and nose.

Zhang Cuiniang struggled instinctively, but the knock-out drug on the handkerchief was too strong. In just a few seconds, she pa.s.sed out.

“How many did we get?”

“Three.”

“Continue. The leader said that the more people we get, the more bargaining chips we will have. Even if she wants to save them, who will she save first? Hehehehe.”

After Zhang Cuiniang was carried away, the people hiding in the dark turned their eyes to Bai Shuang, who was near the foot of the mountain.

They stealthily moved to Bai Shuang’s side, and just as they were about to attack her, Bai Shuang suddenly turned around and met their gazes.

Bai Shuang got a big shock. Immediately after that, she screamed and ran away.

The two of them were worried that they would be discovered, so one of them dashed forward and grabbed Bai Shuang..
