Chapter 608: How Long Will You Be Gone?

work anyway.Moreover, the irrigation ditch was dug closer and closer to the foot of the mountain, making prey scarce. It's also unlikely Zongyu would encounter any game there."I was just saying, if y...Zong Bai pulled the hare out of the trap. Fang Jinxiu directly put it into her space, lest the bloody smell spread and attract wild beasts.

"This trap was definitely not made by your older brother."

Zong Yu wouldn't set so many sharpened stakes in a trap. If someone fell in, they would be dead for sure.

"Then there's only one possibility," Zong Bai mused after a moment. "It must be those people from the Umeng Kingdom."

If this was a trap set by the people of Wumeng, then things are bad. There should be more than just one in this forest, right

The expressions on the three faces immediately became more cautious.

"From now on, you must follow me closely and not stray from the path."

As soon as Fang Jinxiu's voice fell, she was pulled by Zong Bai.

"No."

"Sister-in-law, let me go ahead. After all, I learned how to set traps from my elder brother while we were in the mountains. Let me scout the way."

She pushed him back, "At such a young age, you already know how to take someone else's work."

"With your older brother gone, you have to listen to me."

"Just stand behind me, this is just a simple trap, I can easily get through it."

She stood firm, shielding her siblings behind her, and carefully bypassed the traps laid in their path as they slowly continued on.

Zong Bai and Yulian couldn't resist Fang Jinxiu, so they had to follow along.

Actually, Fang Jinshu was also nervous inside. There were so many wooden spikes in the trap, just looking at them was terrifying. If she wasn't careful and accidentally fell in, she wouldn't die but would definitely be seriously injured.

Every step she took from then on was exceptionally careful.

In no time, I found two traps.

Zong Bai and Yu Lian looked at these life-threatening traps, feeling a chill down their spines while gritting their teeth in curses.

"These Wumeng people are too vicious, setting traps is bad enough, but they even put so many wooden spikes in the trap."

"I think they set this up not to hunt, but rather to keep people away from here."

Zong Bai said it right, Fang Jinxiu also agreed.

Just as they encountered the fourth trap, Fang Jinshu didn't notice it. Her foot stepped into an empty space, and she instinctively exclaimed in surprise, only two words popping up in her mind.

It's over!

Zong Bai and Yu Lian were so scared that their faces turned pale.

Fang Jinshi closed her eyes, at the last moment she was about to slip into the space to protect herself.

Suddenly, my body stopped falling and was pulled upwards by a force.

Zongyu's voice, urgent and trembling, echoed above her head.

"Jinxiu, how are you"

"Is there anywhere hurt"

Hearing this familiar voice, and the familiar scent reaching her nose, Fang Jinshu's tears welled up uncontrollably.

"Didn't you leave already!"

"What else will come and save me"

The young wife's sobs broke Zong Yu's heart. He grabbed Fang Jinshu's hands as she pounded on him, pulling her into his embrace with all his might.

His chin rubbed repeatedly against the beloved's scalp, his eyes filled with reluctance, entanglement, and pain.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Let me escort you out of this forest first."

Fang Jinshu was taken aback. She raised her tear-stained face and looked at Zong Yu.

"Are you still going to deal with those people"

Zongyu remained silent.

Fang Jinxiu wiped away her tears with one hand while retreating from his embrace.

Zongyu's hands hung down, his fists clenched tight.

"Follow me."

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked ahead, leading the way.

Fang Jinxiu wiped her tears and followed him, turning back to greet Zongbo and Yulian.

"Why are you just standing there Move."

University closures are no joke.

They couldn't interfere in Big Brother and Sister-in-Law's affairs, so they could only follow silently.

Along the way, Zong Yu pulled out five or six traps. In addition to the four that Fang Jinxiu had found earlier, there were almost ten traps along this path.

“These people from Wumeng really know how to dig, it seems like this forest is full of holes.”

Wherever Zong Yu found a trap, he removed the wooden splinters inside and filled it in.

As he neared the edge of the forest, he suddenly stopped.

Fang Jinxiu didn't speak the entire way. After calming down, she thought a lot. During her time at the Zong family, it was always Zong Yu who listened to her.

She never seemed to have taken the initiative to understand what Zong Yu was thinking.

This was the first time he didn't listen to her and insisted on doing this.

Perhaps this really matters for reputation.

"Zongbai, you lead the way down this road and bring them home safely."

Zongyu saw Fang Jinxiu's face was sullen and didn't dare to speak to her, afraid of making his daughter-in-law even angrier. He could only turn his head and instruct his younger brother.

Zong Bai frowned, "Brother, aren't you coming home with us"

Zong Yu shook his head, cast one last glance at Fang Jinxiu, and turned to leave.

"Wait!"

In that instant as he turned, Fang Jinxiu still couldn't help but call out to him.

Zongyu immediately stopped and turned back to look at her.

At least, you have to tell me, when will you be back.r drove Hu Ailan to shake her head quickly, indicating that she wouldn't dare speak again."You better do as you said and work hard in the old house, or this village won't have room for you anymore."Af...
