Chapter 198 Looking for someone
"Good boy, go to sleep."
"No, you need to sing like A Niang."
Qin Zuo had no choice but to pat her back gently and hum softly in his gentle voice.
He Fang seemed to feel safe and slowly closed her eyes.
Qin Zuo was still humming softly, and his voice became choked with sobs as he sang.
He buried his face in He Fang's shoulder, trying to hold back his tears.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Zuo said softly:
"Fang Er, I was wrong."
But He Fang didn't hear a word he said.
*
In the mountain village, it was already night when Shen Nuo woke up.
Inside the main hall, the men were anxiously preparing to go down the mountain to find Qin Zuo and the others.
But it was snowing heavily outside, and it was not easy for them to go down the mountain.
They were not familiar with the mountain roads here, and it was too dangerous to go down there in the dark.
Some of them wanted to go down and find someone quickly, while others wanted to do what they could.
If they continue like this, not only will they not be able to find Qin Zuo and the other two, but if anything unexpected happens, these men will also die there.
When Shen Nuo woke up, he heard a noise coming from the main room.
"Why is there a quarrel over there?"
Qin Yan brought the porridge to his mouth, hesitating whether to tell him.
Shen Nuo has a very good relationship with He Fang. If Qin Yan told him, he was afraid that he would go down the mountain to look for someone right away.
"Let's finish eating first."
"If you don't tell me, I won't eat. I'll starve to death."
Qin Yan still didn't say anything, so Shen Nuo guessed on his own.
It must not be a good thing to make Qin Yan like this.
If you don't tell him, then something bad will happen to someone around him.
who is it?
The first person Shen Nuo thought of was He Fang, but He Fang’s fighting power was very high, so how could something go wrong?
He thought of Qin Ruan again. Qin Ruan was protected by the Lin family, so it shouldn't be the case.
Could it be Qin Yu?
Shen Nuo frowned and thought, Qin Yan took a deep breath and said:
"It was my third cousin and his wife who fell off the cliff."
"what?"
Shen Nuo was startled.
"Hanging, cliff?"
Recalling the last time he fell off the cliff, Shen Nuo quickly thought of the miserable situation of the child who fell with him.
He Fang and the others are just ordinary people. If the cliff is so deep, they will fall straight off...
Shen Nuo didn't dare to imagine what would happen.
"Let's go find them."
There was sadness in his voice when he spoke. He Fang had always played well with him, and Shen Nuo didn't want her to die.
Thinking of this, Shen Nuo wanted to stand up and go find He Fang with the people over there.
Qin Yan held him in his arms and comforted him:
"The cliff over there shouldn't be very deep, they might be fine. Besides, it's snowing outside, it's too cold, it's not easy to find someone.
Besides, they are not fools. If they are fine after falling, they will find a place to hide from the snow. Let's wait until daybreak, okay?"
Shen Nuo felt a little confused and forced himself to calm down.
I quickly thought of the few points I clicked during the day.
Shen Nuo looked at a red dot far away from him, clicked it, and saw a dim cave.
He Fang was held in Qin Zuo's arms, and Qin Zuo seemed to be coaxing her to sleep.
Shen Nuo also saw rabbit bones on the ground. It was just as A Yan said, they found a cave to hide in.
Seeing that Shen Nuo had finally calmed down, Qin Yan fed the porridge to his mouth:
"Eat something first, they will be fine."
This time, Shen Nuo did not refuse and opened his mouth to eat.
Vaguely said:
"They are indeed fine. They are hiding somewhere. Let's go find them tomorrow."
At least Shen Nuo knows the location and will go there with Qin Yan and the others tomorrow.
Qin Yan felt much more relieved after hearing him say this.
He is not a cold-blooded person. The person who fell was his cousin.
Qin Yan didn't want the men to look for it because it was very dangerous at the foot of the mountain and if they were not careful more people would be killed.
It’s not that he didn’t want to save Qin Zuo and the other two.
For some reason the main room became quiet again.
Shen Nuo seemed to have heard Qin Ji's voice, which probably told them not to take the risk.
"By the way, did those bandits run away?"
Qin Yan fed him the porridge while telling him what happened next:
“You sprinkled the juice of black grass, and they got on their horses, but they didn’t run far before they all fell off.
We now have many more horses in our village, and all their food is ours."
Those bandits didn't have much food, otherwise they wouldn't have been so anxious to rob Yunzhu Village.
However, those ten or so horses are also very useful.
They can be used to pull more things, but fodder is a little hard to find.
But Qin Yan was not worried. When people are hungry, they can chew on grass roots and tree bark. These horses will definitely chew on the hay on the roadside when they are hungry.
Those who can adapt to the environment will naturally survive, as for those who cannot.
Then we can just consider it as eating an extra meal of horse meat.
"That's good. We must not let this kind of person go."
Shen Nuo didn't care how the bandits died, as long as they were really dead.
The next day.
It was dawn when the snow outside stopped.
Qin Yan took a dozen men with him and went down the mountain to find Qin Zuo and the others.
This time, they will not bring so many people to avoid danger to the village.
Shen Nuo went along with them, he wanted to show Qin Yan the way.
And Qin Yan was also worried about him staying in the mountain village.
Now Qin Yan has to take Shen Nuo with him wherever he goes. This is because several accidents in the past have forced him to be on guard.
I always feel that if I don’t keep Shen Nuo by my side, Shen Nuo will be hurt.
When going down the mountain, Qin Yan always carried Shen Nuo on his back, and everyone else was used to it.
They walked very fast, and if Shen Nuo walked by himself, he would have to use some magic to keep up with them.
Now that he was on Qin Yan's back, he no longer needed any magic.
Qin Yan was not tired either. In his opinion, Shen Nuo was really light and did not affect him at all.
At the foot of the mountain, Qin Zuo had already woken up.
There was no food here, so he could only roast the leftover rabbit meat from last night.
He tore the rabbit meat into pieces and fed it to He Fang. He only ate it himself after He Fang was full.
After the snow outside stopped, he carried He Fang out of the cave.
He held a sword in his hand and cut on the surrounding tree trunks as he walked to mark the ground.
He Fang lay on his back and slowly fell asleep again.
Although Qin Zuo couldn't beat He Fang, he was still a man after all.
It was no problem for him to carry He Fang on his back and walk.
He wanted to find a way up the mountain, even if it was a small path.
But there was white snow all around, and all kinds of dry trees on it, so it was difficult to find the way.
The people from Yunzhu Village would definitely come down to find him, but he couldn't just wait there.
He had no choice but to keep walking, and suddenly, he saw flares being set off in the sky.
This was placed by Shen Nuo. The last time he was attacking the mountain stronghold, Shen Nuo placed something like this.
Qin Zuo saw the flare explode and looked around.
