Ah Hui was stunned. She didn't expect someone to protect her. She held her right arm with her left hand, and her trembling body gradually calmed down. Ah Hui looked at Hu Tao's back and for a moment she didn't remember that they had met yesterday.

Seeing that their boss was no match for them, the three big men turned around and ran without any hesitation, abandoning their boss.

Hu Tao also admired such decisiveness.

Hu Tao was not in a hurry to chase after him, not because she couldn't catch up. On the one hand, she was worried about Miss A Hui's safety. On the other hand, the boss was not kicked to death by her and was still alive. Since he was the boss, he must know more than his younger brothers.

"Hehe, if I can't find you, can't I catch your little brother?" Hu Tao thought proudly.

Hu Tao turned around and asked Miss Hui if she was injured.

"No, it's okay," Ah Hui still kept her left hand grasping her right arm. She looked pale and forced a smile. "Thank you for saving me, girl."

"You're welcome. I will punish this kind of villain every time I see him."

"I remember your name is Ah Hui, right... Ah Hui, didn't the Qianyan Army warn everyone that the mountains are very dangerous during this period and that we can't just go into the mountains casually?"

Walnut asked concernedly, feeling somewhat confused.

Ah Hui was stunned for a moment, then recognized Hu Tao as an accomplice of Qianyan Army.

When faced with Kurumi's questions, under normal circumstances, she would be able to think of and answer the reasons with a normal expression.

But she had just been threatened by the treasure-stealing gang who held a knife to her neck. The familiar coldness of the blade upset Ah Hui's mind. Having suffered from psychological trauma, she stammered and only started to explain after a while, giving an excuse that she did not realize the problem.

"It's almost time to hand in my work. I still have some herbs to collect. After all, I need to eat."

When Ah Hui said this, her expression was haggard and self-deprecating. When Hu Tao saw this, she felt that this girl was very pitiful.

"...I see. Ah Hui, I will accompany you. You have seen that I am very powerful. I will protect you."

"No, no need," Ah Hui shook her head. "I'll go down the mountain right away. I still have some sweet potatoes at home, so I can still hold on. If all else fails, I can ask the villagers to borrow some food."

"...Okay, if you have any difficulties, just tell us. There will always be someone willing to help." Hu Tao is not ignorant of the cold and hot. Working in a special industry, she has seen more of the fickleness of the world than the average person, so Hu Tao said in a gentle voice.

The gentle version of Master Hu is rarely seen even in Lin Ye.

"Yeah." Ah Hui nodded in response, and she turned and walked down the mountain.

Hu Tao called her. Ah Hui tensed up, stopped, and slowly turned around. She saw Hu Tao picking up the knife dropped by the man with a knife, pointing at the man, signaling him to get up quickly, and smiling at her.

"It's dangerous to go down the mountain alone, let's go together."

Ah Hui remained silent, standing alone on the mountain path. She was both moved and flustered, and laughed at herself in her heart for having fallen into such a fearful and timid state.

Hu Tao escorted the big man down the mountain with Ah Hui.

Saying goodbye at the foot of the mountain, Hu Tao looked at Ah Hui's receding back with mixed feelings.

Collecting herbs...where is the medicine basket?

Walnut’s gentleness is gentleness, but it is not necessarily just gentleness, it also includes cunning.

The big man was seriously injured, with stars in his eyes and unable to speak clearly. Hu Tao planned to go back and let him catch his breath before asking him any more questions.

After walking a few steps, she heard someone calling her. She turned around, raised her eyebrows, and kicked the big man again.

Walnut means...

Chapter 76 When Will You Leave Here?

Time goes forward. The boss bids farewell to Ah Hui and returns to the safe house with Lin Ye and the others.

The boss had some puzzled questions in his mind, so as soon as he returned to the safe house, he dragged Lin Ye to a remote place to answer his questions.

At this time, a member of the treasure-stealing group named Li Jiu found Lin Ye and told the boss that he had something to report to the second in command.

Lin Ye had anticipated this and comforted the boss to stay calm. He glanced at Shen He before leaving.

The girl didn't say a word on the way back, with her head down, as if she was thinking about something.

Are you thinking about the meaning of "like"?

Shen He is willing to try to understand human love, which is a good sign for Lin Ye.

After Lin Ye left, Shen He looked up belatedly and looked around. Where was Lin Ye?

At this moment, Shen He's heart skipped a beat and his brows furrowed.

If it were usual, Shen He would think that Lin Ye was busy with something and would not feel nervous or worried.

But this time, in Shen He's subconscious mind, Lin Ye might leave Ao Zang Mountain at any time.

And Shen He had a possessive desire that she was unaware of.

This is not eternal companionship, and he is not here for himself.

Thus, the evil spirit suppressed in the heart by the red rope dissipated slightly along with the excitement.

With the boss alone in front of him, Shen He actually thought of the worst.

All kinds of dark and cold speculations naturally appeared in Shen He's mind.

"Where is Lin Ye?!"

The boss was frightened by Shen He's cold eyes.

Shen He exudes a suppressed hostility, which forms a sharp contrast with his unworldly appearance, which is shocking and terrifying at the same time.

"Someone is looking for my second brother! He just went out! He will be back soon!" the boss replied hurriedly.

Upon hearing this, Shen He realized that Lin Ye did not disappear out of thin air, nor did he leave without saying goodbye. Only then did he relax his brows and feel at ease.

Then Shen He noticed that there was still an expression of fear on the boss's face, and for a moment he recalled his past experiences.

She had seen this expression not often, but not too often.

In the end, it was the boss who took the blame. Shen He felt guilty, expressed his apology, did not stay, and turned and left.

The boss looked at Shen He's receding back, and his fear disappeared when he heard Shen He's apology.

After all, she is his younger brother's sister-in-law. The eldest boss recalled Shen He's cold eyes and sincerely admired his second brother's courage to stay with her. Ah Hui was also gentle.

On the other side, Lin Ye and Li came to the place where the One-Eyed Dragon was imprisoned, but there was no one there.

"Second Master, after you and the First Master left, someone really did secretly rescue the One-Eyed Dragon and escaped with him."

"As you instructed, we pretended that we didn't notice anything and secretly sent a few good men to follow us." Li said, his face gloomy.

The person who rescued the one-eyed man was his friend, and he was not the one brought back by the one-eyed man.

Lin Ye guessed why Li was sad and spoke to comfort him.

"People die for money and birds die for food. This is his own choice."

Li lowered his head and hummed something. After a while, he couldn't help but look up, staring directly at Lin Ye and expressing the questions that had been in his heart for a long time.

"Second boss, there are the Qianyan Army at the foot of the mountain, and there are ungrateful, greedy ungrateful bastards like One-Eyed Dragon in the mountain... The boss's mind is not here for us, I don't know what he is doing..."

"You said, is our treasure-stealing group going to disband soon?"

Li is a core member of the treasure-stealing group and one of the few smart people.

Lin Ye was silent for a moment, patted Li Jue on the shoulder, and said something that sounded like encouragement.

"As the saying goes, if an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Don't think too much and don't have too much pressure."

Li was somewhat moved, and he also had some enlightenment.

The second in command came here to sever worldly ties and resolve the crisis facing the treasure-stealing group!

Lin Ye smiled and changed the subject, saying that once he found useful information from the One-Eyed Dragon, he would report it to him immediately. If he was not there, he would give it to Lao Zhou.

Li nodded to show that he understood.

In fact, he didn't understand. He didn't understand the true meaning of Lin Ye's words of encouragement. There was a subtext.

there is always a solution to a problem.

If you can block it, block it. If you can’t, send it.

Lin Ye was not optimistic that the treasure-stealing group could deal with the Qianyan Army, which had two powerful generals, Hu Tao and Xing Qiu.

When necessary, Lin Ye will push the treasure-stealing group to meet with the Qianyan Army and end the game quickly and efficiently.

But before that, Lin Ye needs to find out the source of the destruction of the treasure-stealing group as described in the system task. Lin Ye interrogated the one-eyed dragon, and his eyes were full of mockery and unwillingness.

He will not give up. There must be a hidden crisis that Lin Ye has not noticed.

Li is a smart man. He noticed the changes in the treasure-stealing group, but was powerless to change anything. The second-in-command, who he placed his hopes on, turned out to be the biggest traitor.

Hopeless.

Afterwards, Lin Ye returned to the boss's place and did not see Shen He.

Where did such a big crane like me go?

Lin Ye thought so in his heart and changed his words when asked.

"Where is Shen He?"

When the eldest boss heard the familiar words and different expressions and tones, he felt that the second brother was the most cordial.

"After you left, she asked me where I had been, and I told her that you had gone out with someone and would be back soon, and then she went out too."

"Oh, by the way, Immortal Shenhe seems to be angry, and looks a bit scary." The boss kindly reminded again.

The eldest boss thinks he is not the second brother and does not understand women's minds.

Just like his second brother had said to him last night, a woman's heart is like a needle in the sea or a cloud in the sky, difficult to guess and unpredictable.

The boss doesn’t know why He is angry, and the key point is that Lin Ye doesn’t know either.

Is Shen He angry?

Lin Ye looked at the boss. He was intact, so it was probably not the boss who made Shen He angry, otherwise he would not have been able to see him alive.

Did I make Shen He angry?

Lin Ye wondered, he had done nothing.

It is absolutely impossible that I made Shen He angry.

Let’s go look for Shen He first.

Lin Ye told the boss that he was going to find Shen He, who expressed his understanding and said that making the girl happy was the most important thing.

Lin Ye looked around and finally found Shen He at the place where she drank morning dew in the morning. She was meditating with her eyes closed. Lin Ye wanted to quietly watch Shen He from a distance, admiring her.

But Shen He sensed someone, opened his eyes, and saw Lin Ye.

Lost and found?

Shen He thought of this idiom in his mind.

It should be mentioned here that Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun was knowledgeable and also taught Shenhe cultural courses. It was one thing for Shenhe to remember it, but it was another thing to understand its meaning.

Even the silly Shen He knew that using the idiom "lost and recovered" to describe his feelings was an exaggeration.

But what about that?

When Shen He saw Lin Ye, his mood unconsciously became lighter.

Lin Ye looked at Shen He, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Shen He didn't look angry. Did the boss see it wrong?

Lin Ye walked closer to Shen He, thought for a moment, and asked.

"I'm planning to go down the mountain, can you accompany me?"

Shen He was stunned for a moment, then nodded silently.

After Lin Ye planned to instruct the big boss, he would go down the mountain to show his presence. He was worried that he would soon become a missing person. At the same time, as a qualified off-field wingman, he was responsible for luring away the Qianyan Army.

Otherwise, if the boss accidentally runs into the Qianyan Army, accidents are inevitable.

"I'm going to go to the boss first. Shen He, can you wait for a while?" Lin Ye asked again in a gentle voice.

The reason why Lin Ye asked Shen He to wait was mainly because the content he was going to discuss with the boss was not suitable for children and was not suitable for Shen He to listen to now.

What if Shen He misunderstands me as a playboy?

Shen He raised her eyes and stared at Lin Ye. She had just thought about something. After a while, Shen He nodded gently.

Lin Ye turned around and heard Shen He's subtle voice, which sounded like a question, or like a question to himself.

"When will you leave here?"
