The daily life of the concubine of the Prime Minister

Chapter 212 The Wolf Comes Down the Mountain

"Take good care of the master. I'll be back soon." Feng Xiao reminded Feng Mo worriedly.

Feng Mo hummed unhappily.

He knew that his master blamed him this time for bringing his wife to Shan'ao Village and not taking good care of her, so he said nothing and just waved his hand.

After bidding farewell to Feng Mo, Liu Yu, escorted by Grandma Feng Xiaokui, left Shan'ao Village on the deep and dark mountain road in the night.

Passing the steep path along the cliff, climbing the rock wall...

Suddenly, wolf howls were heard from the mountains.

The faces of the three men all changed. They all stopped and looked back in the direction of Shan'ao Village.

"Feng Xiao, how long will it take you to send me back?" Liu Yu asked.

"About an hour."

"What about yourself?"

Feng Xiao guessed what Liu Yu was going to do. He refused without thinking: "No, the master asked me to protect the lady back."

Liu Yu's voice suddenly became heavier: "You want your master to die? Answer me, how long will it take you to go back alone?"

Feng Xiao clenched his fists: "It takes less than half an hour to go back and forth."

Liu Yu took a deep breath: "If you don't want to kill your master, then go quickly. The hardest part of the journey has been passed. We have Granny Kui to take us there." Although his tone softened a little, it was not easy to refuse.

"But..." Feng Xiao was torn between his master's orders and his master's life.

"Can't you tell the difference? If you lose your life, you really lose everything."

"The master asked me to take the lady home safely."

Liu Yu discovered that Feng Xiao was a stubborn person and was much harder to fool than Feng Mo.

She turned around and walked back without saying a word. If Dayou Fengxiao didn't go back, she would go back to Shan'ao Village.

Feng Xiao understood Feng Mo’s difficulties.

The howls of wolves in the mountains were getting louder and louder. He knew that if he delayed any further, his master might really be in danger.

Finally, he solemnly instructed Grandma Kui to send Liu Yu and the others back.

Seeing that he was so worried, Liu Yu took the initiative to promise: "I value my life very much. I promise you that we will definitely go back."

Feng Xiao was relieved then. He jumped, used the branches as leverage, performed light skills, and flew quickly down the mountain.

After a while, the figure disappeared.

Liu Yu smiled as he watched Feng Mo disappear. No wonder it took four times the time.

I really am a burden to Feng Xiao.

Granny Aoi walked forward and pointed the road down the mountain.

Liu Yu understood what she meant, but he didn't intend to do it.

She looked at Madam Yang.

Madam Yang shrugged: "I don't care. I've lived long enough anyway. It would be nice if I could do more for the people before I die."

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction and continued walking back.

At this point, Granny Kui was so anxious that she danced with joy and even cried out: "Ah..."

Liu Yu pressed down her gesturing hand and explained with a faint smile: "Mother-in-law, one more person means one more point. Compared with the old, weak, women and children in the mountains, I think I am still much stronger. Why can they stay in the mountains, but I have to let you escort me back..."

Granny Aoi started gesturing again.

"I did promise Feng Xiao that I would go back, but I didn't say when. We can go back after we fight off the wolves."

Granny Aoi shook her head violently, and the movements of her hands almost left afterimages.

Liu Yu understood her worries and what she wanted to express. She smiled but said firmly:

"I am no different from them. I am a person with a life. My significance is determined. No matter who it is, it is useless to say anything. I must go back to Shan'ao Village."

Now that my aunt had her father's company, it was impossible to tell the difference between the mother and son of the Qiu family.

Even if he really died with Master Chen San, he would have no unfulfilled wishes.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him any more, Grandma Kui could only escort Liu Yu and set out again on the road back to Shan'ao Village.

It is difficult to go down the mountain, and even more difficult to go up the mountain. This is the mood of Liu Yu and Mrs. Yang at this moment.

It took almost twice as long to climb the cliff and cross the path on the steep cliff, and finally I could see Shan'ao Village in the distance.

Shan'ao Village at this time was different from when Liu Yuguang left. A fire channel had been lit at the entrance of the village, and an old lady and a young man were walking back and forth guarding it with torches in their hands.

There are also many women who are reinforcing the walls that were not even waist-high at the beginning…

Liu Yu stood not far away and observed for a while. When he didn't see anyone familiar, he quickened his pace and walked towards the village entrance.

At this moment, someone saw a pair of green eyes appearing behind the short lame man opposite the village entrance. A rough count showed that there were no less than a hundred of them, staring at Shan'ao Village with a fierce look.

Liu Yu and the other two also felt the wolves emerging from behind them, and the hair on their bodies stood on end.

Granny Kui carried Liu Yu in one hand and Madam Yang in the other without saying a word, concentrated her internal energy on her legs, and fled towards Shan'ao Village with all her strength.

Perhaps realizing that the prey was about to fly away, the wolf king on the opposite mountain let out a long howl, and more than half of the wolves ran down the hillside and chased after Grandma Kui and the other two.

Although Granny Kui's martial arts skills are very good, she has the weight of two people on her body after all. No matter how fast she is at martial arts, her speed is still more than half slower than usual.

The speed of a wolf is more than twice that of a human. After a chase, the distance between the wolf and Granny Kui was closing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing the wolves chasing after them, Liu Yu and Madam Yang felt their scalps tingling, but they dared not speak loudly for fear of disturbing Grandma Kui.

Even though they heard that Grandma Kui's breathing was rapid and almost reaching her limit, neither Liu Yu nor Madam Yang could say anything to let Grandma Kui leave them.

Now that he was abandoned, he would become the wolf pack's only hope.

But he was still half a step too slow and was less than three meters away from the village entrance.

Grandma Kui, Madam Liu Yuyang and the other two were eventually caught up by the wolves from behind and were surrounded by them.

Granny Kui put Liu Yu and the others down, pulled out her knife, put it in Liu Yu's hand, and took Liu Yu's stick herself: "Madam, I will open a way for you, don't turn around and run to the village."

The villagers guarding the village entrance also discovered Liu Yu and his friends.

"Mrs. Jiang, do you want us to go out and help?" the gatekeeper asked the man opposite.

"What you said is nonsense! Do you see that lady? She is Lord Chen's wife. And do you think those wolves will let us go after killing Madam Chen?" After saying that, he picked up the machete prepared beside him and rushed towards the wolves outside.

Ergou followed closely behind, as did the women who had just reinforced the fences. Those who had iron tools took them, and those who didn't picked up sticks.

A group of nearly twenty or thirty people attacked the wolf pack that was besieging Liu Yu and her group.

Grandma Kui had already killed two wolves. The leader of the team didn't expect that humans could be so powerful. He didn't dare to approach Grandma Jinkui and the others and circled around them.

The twenty or thirty villagers who rushed out to help had already started fighting with the wolves.

Even though they are all women and there are few young men, they are very strong when fighting wolves. Although they cannot kill the wolves in a short time, it is even more difficult for the wolves to bite them.
