Chapter 143 Picked up an old man

Based on past experience, when a critical moment comes, the medicine she needs will automatically appear around her.

If it hasn't appeared now, it's either broken or it hasn't reached a critical moment.

Therefore, the snake just now is most likely not poisonous.

Chen Zhongqian was still sucking away the poisonous blood from her. Lin Yuxi wanted to speak, but seeing the anxious look on his face, what he wanted to say was stuck in his mouth, but he didn't say it out.

When there was no more blood seeping out of the wound, Chen Zhongqian wiped his mouth and said, "What else can I do?"

Lin Joy had been staring at him with a smile on her face. When he suddenly raised his head, she didn't even come back to her senses. She was stunned for a moment before quickly shaking her head, "No, I don't know."

"Do you know the snake just now? Is it venomous?"

"I didn't see it clearly, but the snakes in the mountains must be poisonous... right?"

After saying that, Chen Zhongqian picked her up and was about to leave. It was a little difficult for him to hold her, but he still picked her up. Lin Yuyi was very surprised at this. When did his physical strength become so good?

After walking for several steps, Lin Joy still felt sorry for him and couldn't bear that he was in such a hurry, shaking his legs to get down.

"The wound didn't change color, and I didn't feel uncomfortable. I thought the snake was non-venomous, so there was no need to be in such a hurry. I could walk back slowly."

Chen Zhongqian heard her words, but did not stop. He still carried her forward and walked for a short distance. When he really had no strength, he put her on the ground and took a few deep breaths.

Lin Joy said quickly, "Take a good rest, you too. What are you doing in such a hurry? You won't die."

He glanced at her, and Lin Joy quickly smiled, "She probably won't die."

She thought she would go back after he had rested enough. Anyway, she had collected the medicine she wanted to collect. As a result, Chen Zhongqian calmed down, but she still heard a gasping sound.

"Not you?"

Chen Zhongqian shook his head, and Lin Yuxi tried to stand up, trying to find where the sound came from.

As soon as she took two steps, Chen Zhongqian blocked her behind, "You stand there and be careful of snakes in the grass. I'll go take a look."

After saying that, he carefully identified where the sound came from, and then went in that direction. After walking about ten meters away, he saw an old man lying in the grass, wearing a dirty clothes. It was him.

He kept breathing heavily.

"There's someone here."

When Lin Yuxi heard this, he limped over and took a look. Sure enough, there was a person lying down. He must have passed out. The person they were talking to didn't react at all.

"He probably fell while going into the mountains. We don't know when he will wake up. It would be very dangerous if we leave him here."

Neither of them are the kind of kindhearted people who would do whatever it takes to save people, but they are not cold-blooded animals who are indifferent even if they see people falling in front of them.

Chen Zhongqian said, "I'll carry him."

The answer is obvious, isn't it?

But when Chen Zhongqian said this sentence that most men would say, Lin Joy felt extremely relieved.

This man, who was so weak that he could even tremble when he walked, was able to carry people down the mountain after a year. Probably not many people could understand Lin Yuxi's mood at this time.

It's like your own cub has finally grown up?

If Chen Zhongqian knew that she actually described this feeling in her heart, he would probably beat her to death.

The old man lying in the grass was only carrying a shabby baggage. He was very thin. It was not that difficult for Chen Zhongqian to carry it, but he still had to stop to take a breath after walking a few steps.

Lin Yuxi walked behind, supporting the person as much as possible so that the weight on Chen Zhongqian could be lighter.

The two of them cooperated like this, and it took them twice as long to get out of the forest. It was already noon.

They trudged back home. Xiaoyu and Xiaoduo had already come back. Xiaoyu was comforting his sister and thinking that if his parents didn't come back after a while, he would go down the mountain to take a look.

"Mom, you are finally back." The two children were very worried. Then they saw the person Chen Zhongqian was carrying and quickly got out of the way.

Chen Zhongqian put the person into the house. Lin Yuxi was afraid that the children would be worried, so he quickly explained to them, "We saw this unconscious grandfather in the mountains, so we rescued him. Don't be afraid, and you can't go out and follow him."

People say, what if someone wants to hurt him?"

The most important thing is that they are worried that this person is a fugitive or something. They don't regret saving people, but they don't want to get into trouble. This person looks like he entered the forest because he was running for his life.

Lin Hexi felt the old man's pulse. There was nothing serious, more like he had fainted from exhaustion.

So she didn't worry, washed her hands and went to the kitchen to cook. It was already so late and the family of four hadn't eaten yet.

Today I went into the mountains to pick some fresh wild vegetables, chopped cabbage from the ground, pulled radishes, and a piece of ribs I bought yesterday.

Lin Xixi made a radish and pork ribs soup, stir-fried wild vegetables, stir-fried cabbage, and simmered a pot of bacon rice with some peas in it. As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, the aroma filled the air.

She had the meal ready in just over half an hour. As soon as the family of four sat down at the table, a shaky old man from a nearby room came looking for the smell and said, "It smells good."

Lin Yuxi saw his hand on the door first. Before she could scream, the man came in and immediately patted his chest.

"Old man, are you awake?"

The old man didn't answer, he just looked at the rice on the table and said, "It smells good."

Lin Xixi hurriedly went to fetch water for him to wash his hands, and then served him food, while Chen Zhongqian brought another stool.

When he got to the table, he started to wolf down his food. It looked like he had been hungry for a long time. Lin Yuxi didn't remember to ask him where he came from, but instead gave him a few dishes.

"Eat slowly, there's still more in the pot." He seemed to like eating bacon stewed rice.

Xiaoyu and Xiaoduo looked at him curiously. After filling their stomachs, he put the bowl down and asked, "Where is this? Why am I here?"

Lin Yuxi thought to herself, you really didn't delay eating at all.

She briefly explained the matter, and the old man nodded, "Is that so? So, I'm not in the mountains now?"

"No, this is our home. Do you remember where your home is?"

The old man shook his head, and Lin Joy's heart skipped a beat. It's over, has he lost his memory?

Who would have thought that he then said, "I don't have a family, and I've been alone for decades."

"In the mountains?"

"of course not!"

When they met by chance, the old man obviously didn't plan to tell them too much, so Lin Xixi and Chen Zhongqian stopped asking.

He asked them what boundary this was, nodded, and prepared to take a rest before leaving.

Xiaoduo helped Lin Yuxi clean up the dishes after eating, while Chen Zhongqian stared at Xiaoyu practicing his calligraphy. The old man thanked them again, picked up his baggage and prepared to leave.

Xiaoduo asked, "Mom, are you having barbecue tonight?"

"yes."

The old man took two steps out and then turned back, "I think I'm still a little dizzy, so I can leave again tomorrow."

Lin Hexi:……
