Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In contrast to Xue Wufu’s excitement, Jiang Yue’s expression couldn’t be calmer. However, Jiang Yue didn’t want to waste any more time. Since Xue Wufu believed that he was the one who hunted the bear, that was all that mattered.
Just as she was about to tell them that she was going to find people to carry the bear to town to sell, she saw Xue Dafu, Xue Yifu, and Xue Erfu rushing over from the mountain with a dozen young men.
Each of them held something in their hands.
They must have heard that Xue Wufu had gone hunting in the mountains and that she and Xue Yan had gone missing. Obviously, they had gone into the mountains to find Xue Wufu. They were naturally worried, so they called people to look for him as well.
They were afraid that if they really encountered a bear, they would all be holding a weapon that they thought could deal with the bear.
In fact, they were just some sticks, sickles, and machetes.
“Look, it’s them!” Jiang Yue pointed in the direction where Xue Dafu and the others came from and said to the two boys.
“Hey! We’re here!” Xue Wufu immediately waved his arm and shouted.
Xue Dafu and the others were looking for a way to enter the mountain when they suddenly heard Xue Wufu’s voice. They looked up and saw that Xue Wufu, Jiang Yue, and Xue Yan were already at the foot of the mountain. They weren’t in the mountain at all. They were all overjoyed and hurriedly parted the gra.s.s and came over.
It was only when they came over that they noticed the big bear at the side. They had not seen the bear earlier because the gra.s.s was too tall.
Xue Dafu and the others were shocked.
Only when they discovered that the bear was already dead did they stop being afraid.
The dozen or so young men who had come with him were all surrounding the blind bear and looking at it.
“There really are blind bears!”
“It’s so big!”
“How much is this worth!”
Xue Dafu, Xue Yifu, and Xue Erfu were different from the others. They immediately checked on their three precious family members.
“Xue Yan, are you alright?”
“Jiang Yue, are you alright?”
“Wufu, you’re injured?!”
“I’m fine,” Jiang Yue shook her head.
Xue Yan also said he was fine. Xue Wufu was clearly injured, but he said he was fine as well.
Xue Dafu and the others were relieved to see Jiang Yue and Xue Yan completely fine, and that Xue Wufu had stopped bleeding from his injury.
Xue Erfu had a flamboyant personality and was the most popular among his peers in the village. He was also the most loyal to his friends. As long as there was something he needed, he could wave his hand and these people would be willing to help him. The dozen or so young men who came today were all his good friends.
Xue Yan knew them, so he greeted them one by one.
Jiang Yue didn’t know them at first, but when Xue Yan greeted them and whispered to her that they were all good friends of her brother, she immediately understood what was going on and greeted them one by one.
“You d*mned child!” Relieved, Xue Dafu slapped the back of Xue Wufu’s head. “Xue Yan even dreamed that you would meet a blind bear, and you still dared to come! See, dreams do come true!”
Before Xue Wufu could say anything, one of the young men asked, “Who did this?”
Xue Wufu immediately ignored his father and raised his hand in excitement. “I did it, I did it!”
No one believed him.
Someone even laughed. “You have such thin arms and legs. This blind bear can crush you to death with one paw. How did you beat it?”
