Chapter 46: It's Nice to Have a Little Daughter-in-law
Lin Hai walked in the rolling mountains for most of the day, and he had not closed his eyes for two days and two nights.
Although he now has the physique of a psychic, the battle with the earth dragon in the ancient tomb consumed a lot of his energy. Coupled with not eating, drinking or sleeping, Lin Hai still felt exhausted early in the morning.
When he felt sleepy, he found a clean place and lay under the shade of a tree to take a nap.
When he was thirsty, he would squat by the mountain spring and drink water. When there was no mountain spring, he would drink a handful of water in the depression.
He was really hungry, so he picked some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger. He originally wanted to hunt some small animals, but he had no weapons. Even if he caught mountain mice, he didn't have the tools to skin them, so he had to give up. He couldn't find any wild animals.
When he was eating fruit, he would randomly grab a handful of leaves and put them in his mouth to chew. There were leaves in the forest with sweet juice that could not only quench thirst but also refresh people.
Just walking and walking like this until sunset, Lin Hai finally saw Fenghuang Village from a distance.
Smoke curled up from the cooking pots, and people who had worked hard all day walked home carrying hoes.
The setting sun bathes the barren small village, like covering the village with a hazy gauze.
Lin Hai's eyes filled with excitement. He had never loved this small village so much.
In just two days of separation, he walked around the gates of hell, feeling like he had been reborn and reborn as a human being.
"Lin Hai, you brat, so you are here!" A rough voice sounded from behind.
Lin Hai looked back and saw that it was Tang Nong, the village party secretary of Fenghuang Village, and two other villagers.
After they saw Lin Hai, they immediately shouted: "Found it! Found it! Lin Hai is here!"
Lin Hai felt warm in his heart. It seemed that these villagers came out to look for him, which moved him a little.
In this remote place, there are still people who remember him after all.
A dozen villagers emerged from the woods, including the little widow Yin Xiaomei, whose face was full of anxiety.
When she saw Lin Hai, a look of surprise flashed across her face. If it hadn't been in front of so many people, she would have jumped into Lin Hai's arms impatiently.
Tang Nong said: "You brat, where have you been these two days? Nothing happened, right?"
Lin Hai shook his head. He had concealed his experience in the ancient tomb. If he told about that incredible and bizarre experience, people would definitely laugh at him, and maybe even regard him as a mental patient. This is a new era, what are we talking about?
The ghosts and ghosts were just promoting feudal superstition, so Lin Hai simply kept silent. He just made up a lie, saying that he was lost in the mountains.
Tang Nong asked: "I heard from Xiaomei that a group of strangers seemed to have come to the village the night before yesterday. Did you bump into them?"
Lin Haidao: "No! At that time, I just followed the group of strangers, but ended up losing them when they got into the mountains. Instead, I got lost myself. Oh, what a shame!"
Lin Hai did not expose the identity of the group of people. If he told the story, the tomb of King Daxi would probably be in danger. Tomb robbers from all over the country would swarm in, and by then Fenghuang Village would not be able to live in peace.
Tang Nong patted Lin Hai on the shoulder: "As long as he can come back safely, it will be fine. These two days have exhausted us to death! Okay, Lin Hai has been found. Let's go home and rest!"
The villagers dispersed one after another, and Lin Hai thanked the villagers one by one, "Thank you for your hard work! I have caused trouble to you! I'm sorry! Thank you! Thank you!"
At the end, only Yin Xiaomei was left.
Lin Hai asked: "Xiaomei, why don't you go back?"
Yin Xiaomei gently poked Lin Hai's waist and lowered her head coquettishly: "I haven't seen you for two days, I miss you! I hate it, why do you have to drive people away as soon as we meet? Don't you miss me?"
"Yes! Of course I do!" Lin Hai hugged Yin Xiaomei gratefully. Well, her hair smells so good!
Yin Xiaomei said: "My mother-in-law and son are back, so they can't go to my house today. Brother Hai, let's go to your house. You look like you haven't eaten for a long time. I'll go to your house to help you make dinner!"
Looking at Yin Xiaomei's swaying little butt, Lin Hai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's great to have a little daughter-in-law at home!"
