Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"Uncle Lu, save me, save me!"

He Qi's faint cries for help brought Lu Weiguo back to his senses.

He stepped forward, drew his machete, and, meeting the leopard's terrified gaze, plunged the knife deep into the leopard's neck.

However, Lu Weiguo knew that the terrified look in those eyes was not afraid of him, nor of the knife in his hand.

Rather, it was the first time I had ever felt powerless in the face of such an obese lynx.

The leopard bled profusely instantly; Wangcai had been running for so long and was exhausted.

He lowered his head and licked the scalding blood greedily.

Lu Weiguo turned around to look at He Qi, who was terrified.

But as soon as the boy looked up and saw Wangcai's face covered in blood, he closed his eyes and lay straight down on the ridge of the field.

And coincidentally, my neck ended up on the corn stalks that hadn't been dug up yet.

A bloody gash appeared instantly on her delicate skin.

Anyone who has farmed knows that harvesting corn doesn't involve picking corn directly from the cornfield.

The quickest way is to cut the corn stalks down with a sickle.

Then they gathered together and dumped them in one pile.

Then just sit on the corn stalks and break them apart.

The men cut down the straw, and the women husk the corn.

Working together as a team makes the work easier and is the best and fastest way in this era.

Of course, the corn stalks cut with a sickle are cut at an angle.

Therefore, its sharpness is no less than that of a rusted machete.

Even today, many children have their toes cut off in the cornfields after the harvest.

Therefore, Lu Weiguo was also startled when he saw the blood on He Qi's neck from the cleaver.

Then, he quickly pulled off the leg wraps, picked him up, checked the wound, and began to bandage it.

The wound isn't deep, but the location is rather awkward.

It is essential to stop the bleeding immediately.

This also wasted a lot of time.

"Yes! Grandma, it was him, it was them. They were chasing me and scaring me. That leopard must have been one of them too..."

No! It was a lynx! That cuckold used that lynx to scare me!!! Waaah, it hurts so much, I'm so scared!

Grandma almost got killed by him!!

Lu Weiguo had just finished bandaging He Qi's wound.

Make sure the child is okay.

At the edge of the field, Zhang Qiang was being held by his grandmother, followed by many villagers carrying pickaxes and sickles.

He came over in a panic.

"Weren't you being chased by a leopard? How does that involve Lu Weiguo?"

"Zhang Qiang, don't scare me! Where's my son? Where's my son?!"

"You little brat, don't talk nonsense. Lu Weiguo's lynx is as docile as a cat."

Upon hearing Zhang Qiang's voice, many villagers chimed in.

Especially He Qi's mother, who was holding a sickle, was almost scared out of her wits.

Following behind Mrs. Wai, he kept asking about the situation.

"What nonsense are you talking about?! My grandson would never lie. He must have been terrified to say that!"

It's that orphan Lu Weiguo, he's going to get revenge on me, and on my eldest grandson!!

Old Mrs. Wai was breathing heavily, but when she started cursing, she was still incredibly powerful.

The other villagers didn't dare to provoke him and could only follow behind him into the fields.

"Hurry! Help!!"

He Qi's mother cried out for help.

But these were just ordinary farmers, and Zhang Qiang didn't tell a single truth.

With leopards and lynxes lurking around, who would dare to go first?

Fortunately, a young man with sharp eyes spotted it.

Finally, he recognized Lu Weiguo, who had stood up over the field.

"It's Brother Weiguo! He's really here. With him here, we have nothing to fear. Let's hurry and rescue them."

In Fendou Village, Lu Weiguo's name carries more weight than that of Village Chief Huang.

The large group of people finally dared to jog a few steps.

"Brother Weiguo!"

"Xiao Lu! How is he?"

"What happened? That little brat is terrified and can't explain himself."

Upon arriving in front of Lu Weiguo, the group went forward to examine him. When they saw the leopard being pinned down by the lynx, and the lynx with its face covered in blood, they were shocked.

He took two steps back and didn't dare to go forward.

"It was a leopard. These two kids were playing with air guns and got into trouble with it. Luckily, I was nearby, and look what happened. My Wangcai killed them both."

Lu Weiguo offered an explanation.

There's not much more to say.

There are so many people, and it's impossible to explain everything in a short time.

But Zhang Qiang, who had just arrived, rolled his eyes and immediately started shouting loudly.

"It's all his fault, that green-headed turtle! He knew the kids weren't his, so he tried to kill us children and even stole my air rifle."

"Look, that lynx just killed He Qi's cat a few days ago, and now it wants to kill us too!!"

Zhang Qiang said.

The old woman followed immediately, thinking about her recent experiences.

My son separated from me, and now there's no one to work in the family.

Even when land was distributed to individual households, the land they received was still the worst kind.

She wasn't even given fertilizer or seeds.

Unable to vent her resentment, she plopped down on the ground, cursing Lu Weiguo as if she were about to die.

She had thought that, given he was an old man and a child, even if the villagers sympathized with him...

They would also side with her.

However, after she cried and screamed for a long time...

The moment he opened his eyes, the surrounding villagers looked at him like he was a fool and all sided with Lu Weiguo.

"My son, my son, are you alright? Don't scare your mother."

Over there, Lu Weiguo ignored Old Wai's wife and squatted down to comfort He Qi's mother.

Even though there was that black cat incident, they are still neighbors after all, and his family just likes to take advantage of small things.

There's nothing seriously wrong with it.

"Sister-in-law, the child is fine, just frightened. He got pricked by that corn root, but he should wake up soon."

These words were spoken.

The young woman knelt down on the ground with a thud.

Compared to what Zhang Qiang said, she believed Lu Weiguo more.

"Sister-in-law, please don't..."

"Weiguo, don't pull me! It's my fault, my He Qi has wronged you!!"

"Um?"

Lu Weiguo sensed that something was wrong, but seeing his sister-in-law like this, he didn't ask her in detail.

But when the old woman saw this, she pounced on her.

She gripped her sister-in-law's sleeve tightly, "What are you doing? Why are you kneeling before her? It's him! He's the one who ruined your son! My grandson doesn't lie! Look at that lynx, its face is covered in blood, what good could it be?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone glanced at the lynx that was still drinking blood.

I also felt a little scared.

However, her sudden movement jolted He Qi awake, and upon opening his eyes, he saw his mother.

She burst into tears.

She shouted loudly, "Mom! I'm never playing with Zhang Qiang again! He grabbed me!! He wouldn't let me run!! Otherwise, he definitely couldn't outrun me!!!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Zhang Qiang, who was still throwing a tantrum.

Zhang Qiang noticed something was wrong, his tears stopped instantly, and he blinked his small eyes at the villagers.

He ignored his grandmother and ran outside!
