Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 212 Memories of Yi Chi

Yi Chi told her what happened in the past two years, and finally explained, "I always felt that she was weird. When she came to see me that day, she brought that kind of medicine... I was worried that if it didn't work this time, she would continue to pester me in the future, so I just knocked her out and sent her to the wolf's den."

"That kind of medicine? Which one?" Jiang Yu was at a loss.

Yi Chi pursed his lips, feeling a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he uttered two words very quietly and quickly, "Aphrodisiac."

Jiang Yu exclaimed, she heard it clearly, so she was even more shocked, "So fierce??" Directly use aphrodisiac on men? ? This girl is really bold!

Yi Chi lowered his head to shave the pig's head, pretending that he didn't hear Jiang Yu's sigh.

"By the way, I've never asked you, how old are you?" You should be an adult. Because Jiang Yu was a time traveler, he always thought he was older than everyone else and often ignored other people's ages.

Yi Chi still lowered his head, but answered her question obediently, "I'm 19."

"In terms of age?" Jiang Yu sighed and said teasingly, "That means you've just turned 18. Putting other things aside, that girl has a good eye. At least she can see through your appearance and thinks you have a promising future."

"Jiang Yu!! You are two years younger than me, what nonsense are you talking about!" Yi Chi was helpless and shy. His whole body turned red as if he was scalded. Even the hand holding the kitchen knife turned red. He wished he could dig a hole and bury himself.

Jiang Yu choked up immediately. Yes! I'm only 16 now... You said that I have good taste in liking 18-year-old Yi Chi, and my tone is a little older? Who cares? She looked at the shy Yi Chi and laughed out loud in a very unkind way.

What can Yi Chi do? He can only bite the bullet and continue to clean up the pig head! He pretends that he can't hear her laughter and works hard.

Jiang Yu laughed for a long time before she stopped. She cleared her throat and said to him while splitting the little wild boar in half, "Are you sure it's safe over there with the wolves? Will they leave anything behind to expose you?"

"No, I tore up Liang Shugen and the woman's coats and threw them down the cliff. No one can walk down there, so no one will find them." Yi Chi was very confident about this. The cliff was very hidden. If someone who was not familiar with the road went up there, they might miss a step and fall down. As for whether they could get up after falling down? Almost impossible.

That place is more like a very deep and straight-down hole than a cliff, right between the mountains. It seems as if it was formed by an external force that penetrated the mountain directly from top to bottom. The hole is not big, with the opening only about one meter wide, and no one knows what's inside.

Besides, it’s not far from the wolf’s den. Who would be so stupid as to wander around there?

As for why Yi Chi found that place, it can only be said that it was a coincidence and he was destined not to die.

After his family died, Yi Chi was left in a broken wooden house, starving and freezing. He tried to beg for food in the village, but was ruthlessly driven out. With nowhere else to go, Yi Chi had no choice but to go to the mountains to find food if he wanted to survive.

At the beginning, he didn't go very deep. He knew there were many wild beasts in the mountains and he was afraid of them, so he just dug wild vegetables on the outskirts to fill his stomach. If he was lucky, he could eat some wild fruits. In autumn, there were also chestnuts. If he picked up a lot, he could survive the winter.

However, as the population of the village increased, more and more people came to the outskirts to pick up mountain products, and Yichi no longer had enough food.

He had no choice but to go to the mountains. When he was 9 years old, he didn't have enough food to last through the winter, so he had to bite the bullet and look for food everywhere. But he went in the wrong direction, and there was no food for a long time. He searched in the mountains for a day and a night, trembling with fear.

Just when he was about to give up and turn back, he found that he couldn't find the way back.

The young Yi Chi was extremely panicked. He wandered around in the mountains without any care and just met an old wolf.

Although the old wolf was thin, it was still strong. It was a lone wolf expelled by the tribe. How could it give up when it encountered prey when the weather turned cold? It approached Yi Chi straight away.

Yi Chi was frightened and ran away.

The man and the wolf were chasing each other around the tree. Just when Yi Chi fell to the ground and thought he was going to die in the wolf's mouth, the wolf jumped up and pounced on him, then lost its front feet and fell headfirst into the hidden cave.

Yi Chi looked at the hole that suddenly appeared in shock. It was just one step behind him. If he hadn't been tripped by the vines, it would have been him instead of the old wolf who fell into the hole!

That experience was a nightmare for Yi Chi. He was afraid of mountains for a long time and would rather starve than go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and dig wild vegetables. He was so hungry that he was skinny.

It was only after Zhuang Shouren retired from the army and became the team leader, and started three fires in the village and readjusted the population and rations, that he was able to barely survive.

When he was 13 years old, his third uncle came to him disguised as a passing worker. From then on, Yi Chi began to live like a normal person.

It was also because his uncle took him to the base and interacted with people in the army, and everyone accompanied him in activities in the mountains, that he slowly overcame his initial fear and even slowly found the cave that saved his life.

I also met Tuanzi at that time. It was a very small creature, wandering outside alone for some reason. It couldn’t even hunt on its own and looked very pitiful.

Yi Chi would smuggle some food out to feed it, and the man and the cat (young lynxes look very much like kittens) slowly built up trust and became good friends.

Later, Tuanzi grew up and could hunt independently. He would feed Yi Chi and share wild game such as rabbits and pheasants with him.

Yi Chi's character was not distorted or abnormal, all thanks to the countless positive influences brought to him by the soldiers in the army and Tuanzi.

"Just make sure you're safe." Jiang Yu's voice interrupted Yi Chi's memories.

He turned around to look at her. The sun was setting and the golden sunlight shone on Jiang Yu, as if she had been coated with a layer of light, making her seem somewhat sacred.

Seeing him staring at her in a daze, Jiang Yu called out to him, "Yi Chi?"

"Hmm?" Yi Chi responded blankly.

"The pig's head has flown away!" Jiang Yu pointed at his feet and warned loudly.

"Ah?" Yi Chi blinked, looked down, then quickly reached out to hold the pig's head, and leaned forward a little.

"Be careful!" Jiang Yu spoke quickly when he saw that he was about to fall into the stream.

"It's okay, it's okay. I've got my footing steady." Yi Chi squatted back down, holding the wild boar's head, then dragged the pig's head back and continued to shave the hair.

Seeing that he was fine, Jiang Yu continued to work.

After simply dealing with the wild boar, Yi Chi took Jiang Yu to the cave where the items were stored.

Not far after going up the mountain, he covered the entrance of the cave with vines, placed Tuanzi's stinky dog ​​at the entrance to mark the territory, and built a dense fence inside to keep out snakes and rats, and cleaned it up thoroughly.
