Chapter 22: Teenagers

Realizing that he was in trouble, Huang Ye struggled to get up from the bathtub, and the clothes on his body were almost all wet, but fortunately, the weather was neither hot nor cold in May, and even if it was wet, it was fine.

She twisted the clothes on her body, but she gave up when she couldn't dry them, and began to look around the room.

The house was a simple wooden hut, and even the roof was only a few thin planks, and dense vines grew on it, and if it weren't for the fact that those vines had cushioned her, she would have suffered a little even if there was a bathtub underneath.

There was nothing in the room except a tub and a simple shelf, and she pushed open the door and walked out, only to take two steps before she squatted down with her legs weak, apparently with a broken hamstring.

As a last resort, she could only stand up and look at the surrounding environment, there were a few thatched huts outside, a small yard that was fairly flat, and a few rows of vegetable patches in the corner, but those vegetables were all gnawed by small animals, and they didn't look good, as if the main family planted vegetables to raise animals instead of chewing them themselves.

For Huang Ye, who has been suffering for several years, he can't help but feel sorry for the owner of the house, it's really a good thing to be blind!

The door of the hall was locked, she couldn't get in, she could only go into the stove house, the stove was not clean, and there was still a little warm water in the pot, it seemed that the owner of the house had not been away for long.

It's dark at this time, and the other party shouldn't go far.

While she was examining her foot, a teenager pushed open the fence door with a bundle of firewood on his back.

Huang Ye hurriedly put on his shoes, stood up strongly, and limped to the young man like a child who had done something wrong, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I accidentally fell down when I went into the mountain to collect medicine, and I damaged your house..... But I can compensate, can you please take me in for one night? ”

She knew that this was a bit excessive, but who let it get dark at this time, and it was not safe for her to go out like this.

The young man stared at Huang Ye for a moment, his sharp gaze flashed, and he scratched his head with a smile, "It's okay, I'll go take a look....."

The young man carried the firewood into the stove house, scooped a scoop of water from the water tank and poured a few mouthfuls, and washed his hands before leaving the yard, still looking honest, "That..... There is only one bed in my house, and my little brother can squeeze in with me if he doesn't mind. ”

Huang Ye's eyes widened instantly, and he shook his head and waved his hand again and again, "No, no, I'll just nest for a night, and I won't squeeze with you." ”

Joke, how can she, a big girl with yellow flowers, sleep with a strange man!

The young man raised his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything more, turned around and opened the door of the hall to let Huang Ye in.

The hall had nothing but a small square table and a chair for eating, and the home could almost be described as a house with four walls.

The young man was stunned when he saw Huang Ye, and explained: "My family is poor and white, and I make everything by myself little by little, so you have no place to sleep, so it's better to sleep with me!" ”

Huang Ye's head shook like a rattle, "No, no, I can sleep on my stomach!" ”

Seeing her firm, the young man turned to leave.

Huang Ye breathed a long sigh of relief, and lay down on the small square table tiredly, and the corner of the young man's mouth behind him raised a wicked smile.

After a while, the boy came in with a basket, "Is this yours?" ”

Huang Ye turned his head suddenly, and his godless eyes lit up instantly, "Where did you find it?" I thought I lost it! ”

When she fell, the back basket disappeared, she wanted to go over to look for it, but it was already dark, so she could only give up, she didn't expect this young man to be so powerful.

The corner of the young man's mouth twitched, and he said, "The roof of the bathhouse fell off by itself." ”

Huang Ye: "....."

She pulled the back basket, fortunately the things are still there, tonight's dry food is available, seeing that the young man's family is not very good, in order to thank the other party for taking in, she divided half of her dry food to the other party, "I didn't bring money into the mountain this time, I can only take this to thank you, don't dislike it!" ”

I thought that the young man would be polite, but I didn't expect the other party to accept it with peace of mind, and ate it in front of her.

Huang Ye was stunned for a moment and then took a bite.

"Where are you from?" The boy asked curiously.

Huang Ye swallowed the food and glanced at him, "In the nearby village, someone in the family is sick, and I went into the mountains to collect medicine, what about you?" You're the only one in your house? ”

The young man nodded, "I've lived here alone since I was very young, and sometimes I catch some prey and send it to the small market outside Pucheng to exchange some money, I see you are limping when you walk, are you injured?" ”

Huang Ye nodded and didn't say anything.

The boy didn't ask any more curiously.

The two of them ate dry food in the dark hall, and the young man turned his head and went into the house to sleep, as if he didn't plan to care about her.

Huang Ye has been in Pucheng for so many years, and it is the first time she has seen this kind of hospitality, but the other party's indifference made her breathe a sigh of relief, because she is not good at being polite to people.

By the moonlight, she took off her shoes again to check her ankles, fortunately it was only a sprain, the bones were fine, if there were conditions, apply some herbs, and it would be fine after two or three days of cultivation.

But the problem is that she doesn't have the right herbs around her, and she has to find them, and she doesn't know if the indifferent and honest teenager is willing to help.

Because of the pain in her feet, she couldn't sleep well this night, and she moved from time to time.

The young man in the room naturally heard it clearly.

At dawn, Huang Ye had just fallen asleep in a daze and the boy got up, and when he passed by Huang Ye's side, he looked down at her red and swollen ankles, and went out expressionlessly.

When Huang Ye woke up again, she found that there was a broken bowl beside her, which was filled with mashed herbs, she picked up the herbs and smelled them, a trace of surprise flashed on her face, and then applied the medicine to her feet.

The boy didn't know where he went, the whole yard was quiet, and there was a movement outside the yard about half an hour, she thought it was the boy who had returned, and was looking forward to it, but she didn't expect it to be a wild boar.

At this moment, Huang Ye only felt that her muscles were tense and her breathing was stagnant, she secretly put her hand into the back basket, took out a sickle from it, and was ready to fight the wild boar desperately at any time.

At this time, two more rough voices came from outside.

"Look, the wild boar is there, do you shoot it or do I shoot it?"

Huang Ye was so frightened that his face turned white, this wild boar has not attacked yet, if she is hit by an arrow, she will definitely go crazy, and she will become the target of the wild boar nine times out of ten.

If her foot hadn't hurt and she could have found a way to deal with it, now she's struggling to protect herself.

Before she could utter a loud shout, two arrows pierced the boar's body, and with a terrible wail, the boar began to rush around the yard.

Huang Ye came back to her senses, hurriedly went over and closed the door of the hall, and then hid in the room, thinking about it, it didn't seem safe to stand on the ground, and she found a way to use the rope to climb the beam.

She had barely sat down on the door of the hall when a wild boar knocked it open.

Huang Ye listened to the movement outside, and his heart rose to his throat.

After a while, the boar howled twice, and it seemed that the two hunters had chased in and made up a few arrows.
