Ling Xue and Liao Er got in the car and left the reservoir, chatting as they walked towards the back mountain of Tianchao.
The two of them talked about Uncle Shi. Ling Xue wasn't actually very familiar with him, so she asked Liao Er, "Is Uncle Shi from our village too? It seems like you know him very well?"
Liao Er said "Hi" and explained to Ling Xue, "You know that silly stone at the west end of the village? That's his third uncle. He worked hard outside in his early years and has only been back for two years. When he came back, you were already abroad, so you just missed him."
Ling Xue suddenly realized: "It's him? Silly Stone is also in the village now?"
Sha Shitou is not stupid. These are nicknames given to me by my childhood playmates, and they have been used to call me that until now.
When Ling Xue asked, Liao Er told her about Shitou: "He opened a small supermarket in the county. He's doing OK. His child is two years old now."
"That's good!"
The two chatted casually and soon reached the back mountain.
Ling Xue parked the car on a flat piece of grass by the river, and the two of them walked up the mountain along the path.
This can't actually be considered a path, because it's not easy to walk on. Only a few naughty boys of Liao Er's generation like to walk here.
For no other reason than that it is closer to the waterfall pool if you walk from here.
Therefore, Ling Xue, Liao Er and others would pass through here every time they went up the mountain.
This time they went up the mountain through this route as usual, and had no intention of taking the route that the villagers often took.
When the two men walked to the small cliff, they suddenly heard a burst of scolding, followed by a scream. They immediately stopped and quickly hid behind a large rock.
Liao Er gave Ling Xue a look, and both of them dared not make any sound for fear of getting into danger.
The stone where they hid could not be seen from the outside. No one would have thought that there was a small space behind the stone. The space was not big, but it could hide four or five people. They often played here when they were young and were quite familiar with it.
Fortunately, otherwise they might really get into trouble.
After the two hid for a while, a young man and woman came out with five or six strong men.
"Sister, no one will find out, right?" a voice asked.
"No, the villagers won't come here easily, and few people know about this place, so don't worry!" The voice was very familiar, so familiar that Liao Er and Ling Xue knew who it was as soon as they heard it.
Ling Xue raised her eyebrow and sighed in her heart: "I didn't expect this girl to be so powerful. She actually dared to do such a thing!"
Ling Xuejian didn't really care about it. Besides, it had nothing to do with her, so of course she wouldn't take it to heart.
But Liao Er couldn't do it. Ling Xue could clearly hear his increasingly rapid breathing. Ling Xue secretly said that this kid was not good. I'm afraid something might happen to him.
When the people outside walked to the big rock, Ling Xue could see that Liao Er became more nervous.
The two people inside could clearly hear the sounds outside.
"Sister, what's wrong?" A voice came. Ling Xue swept over with her mental power and saw Li Lele paused, then continued to move forward.
"It's okay, let's go!"
After they walked away, Liao Er sat down on the ground and gasped for breath.
Seeing what Liao Er was about to say, Ling Xue quickly raised her index finger and made a soft "hush" sound, and Liao Er immediately quieted down.
Ling Xue pulled Liao Er inside. The two of them tiptoed around the stones, walked a distance into the hidden area, and then hid in a small space behind a stone.
