Dinner was delivered by Niu Dazhuang. As he worked in the courtyard, he was also constantly paying attention to the movements in the woodshed.
"Wife …" Wife... "To eat." Niu Dazhuang placed the bowl beside Xia Yi and took a step back.
He was still a little afraid of Xia Yi, but because of Xia Yi's exquisite appearance, he couldn't help but want to take another look at her.
Xia Yi only glanced at the bowl at the side, then closed her eyes once again.
"Wife, why aren't you eating? You'll starve to death if you don't eat. " Niu Dazhuang was a little flustered. His parents and brother had both told him before, that it was steel if people were to eat iron rice, and panic if people did not eat food. He had always obediently listened to his parents and had a good meal.
Xia Yi helplessly raised her arm, to let Niu Dazhuang see that her wrist was firmly tied up, and said: "How do I eat it?"
Niu Dazhuang lowered his head, as if he was a child who had done something wrong.
Xia Yi's eyes flashed, and asked: "Or maybe you can help me untie the rope for a while?"
"But …" Niu Dazhuang was a little hesitant.
Xia Yi thought it was a good idea, so she continued: "Just tie it up after I finish eating. As long as I don't tell your brother, he won't know."
Niu Dazhuang sneaked a peek outside, and seeing that Niu Dazhi could not see what was going on inside the house, he reluctantly agreed.
Xia Yi was overjoyed. This Niu Dazhuang was not too stupid, it was just that his intelligence was low and his behavior was similar to that of a three year old child.
Just as the rope was untied, Niu Dazhi's voice came from outside, "Dazhuang, what are you doing inside? "Still not coming out."
"He's here!" Niu Dazhuang immediately grabbed onto the rope and wrapped it around Xia Yi's wrist, then ran out of the woodshed in a hurry.
Only after the door was locked again and she heard the sound of footsteps slowly walking further and further away did Xia Yi slowly remove the rope on her wrist.
Earlier, when Niu Dazhuang was in a rush to leave, he had just followed the directions and wrapped the rope around it. He did not know that there was a knot to tie, so with a light shake, the rope was untied.
The sky had just turned dark, so Xia Yi knew that the success rate of her escape wasn't that high.
When the sky had completely darkened and no sound could be heard from outside the woodshed, Xia Yi then got up and flipped out of the woodshed window.
Xia Yi tiptoed along. Just as she arrived at the entrance of the courtyard and was about to remove the latch, she suddenly heard a wild bark.
Niu Dazhuang's family actually had a dog?
Since there were already movements, Xia Yi no longer cared about anything else as she ran for the door.
Just as he reached the village entrance of Taurus Village, he heard that Niu Dazhi had caught up with them. "Stop! "Stop right now, I promise I won't hit you. If I catch up to you, even if I regret it, it will be too late!"
Hearing Niu Dazhi's harsh words, Xia Yi ran even faster, she did not believe that Niu Dazhi would let her go after stopping.
Furthermore, she had just arrived in this era, and was brought to Taurus Village with a head covered. It would be difficult for her to run back to Taurus Village, so there was a high chance that she would be caught by Niu Dazhi.
After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yi decided to run towards the Spirit Mountain.
The villagers all knew about the incident at Spirit Mountain. They even called Spirit Mountain Ghost Mountain a Ghost Mountain. People of this era all believed in ghosts and gods. They definitely didn't dare to go up the mountain rashly.
Indeed, it was as Xia Yi had expected. Seeing Xia Yi going up the mountain, Niu Dazhi stood at the bottom of the mountain and looked around, yet he did not dare to go up.
There was a ghost in the mountain, so he definitely wouldn't go up. He could only spit on the ground, "Damn woman, you deserve to die in the mountain!"
Afraid that Niu Dazhi would follow him again, Xia Yi kept on running until he was halfway up the mountain.
After stopping, only then did Xia Yi realize that she could not determine the direction at all. Helpless, she could only stay on the mountain for the night.
After clumsily climbing up the branch of a large tree, Xia Yi was finally able to catch her breath.
However, she still did not dare to sleep. Although Granny Liu said that there were no large beasts on the mountain, but she was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
With great difficulty, Xia Yi struggled to keep her eyes open until daybreak. Her entire body felt stiff and painful.
However, she was in no hurry to go down the mountain. She had already climbed up the mountain, so she should have brought some ingredients down with her.
After searching for a while, Xia Yi found a place with a few pieces of rotten wood, and these rotten wood were all covered with mushrooms.
Xia Yi's eyes lit up, and without much consideration, she tore off a large piece of cloth from her clothes and laid it flat on the ground, before happily harvesting the mushrooms.
After a while, the mushrooms on top of the cloth were piled up like a small mountain, it took Xia Yi a lot of effort to tie up the fabric together.
After making a trip up the mountain and reaping such great rewards, Xia Yi happily stretched her back and yawned. Just as she stretched her body, she suddenly saw a white figure floating over from the forest in front of him.
"He must be too sleepy!" Xia Yi thought as she rubbed her eyes hard.
When she looked in that direction again, she found that the white shadow was already gone.
Xia Yi, who had received a modern education, did not take the white shadow seriously. She picked up the cloth bag on the ground and turned around to leave, only to discover that the white shadow had suddenly appeared behind her back.
This time, Xia Yi could see clearly that not only was the white shadow floating in the air, it was also upside down. There were also a few bloodstains on its body, which were bright red and not completely dried up yet.
The sudden visual impact caused Xia Yi to jump in shock. Just as sshe was about to run, he tripped over the rotten wood and fell onto the ground.
