Chapter 197: Chapter 197 Unbelieving

The hunter raised the broadsword in his hand and hacked at the wild wolf several times.

The wild wolf let out a howl and fell to the ground.

Only then was it truly dead.

Having learned his lesson just moments prior,

after the wild wolf fell, the hunter stabbed it in the throat one more time to make sure it wouldn’t get up; only then did he hurry down the mountain to find Gu Ya.

“Brother Gu! Brother Gu!”

Looking down from the edge of the cliff.

The hunter felt a chill in his heart.

Falling from such a height.

Brother Gu wouldn’t have already…?

It was at that moment that Gu Ya’s cry of pain seemed to come from halfway up the mountainside; following the sound, the hunter caught sight of Gu Ya, who had fallen onto a large rock, tangled in vines.

“Brother Gu, are you alright? I’m coming to rescue you right now.”

Finding a relatively thick vine, the hunter clutched it and climbed down. Gu Ya had hit his head on the rock when he fell and felt dizzy.

Hearing Hunter Wang Meng’s voice, Gu Ya tried to get up, only to find he couldn’t move at all—his legs wouldn’t obey him!

After several attempts, Gu Ya still couldn’t stand up.

Wang Meng climbed down next to Gu Ya and reached behind to help him, “Brother Gu? How are you? Are you alright?”

Gu Ya looked at Wang Meng.

“Big Brother Wang, it seems my legs won’t move.”

It’s common for hunters to break their legs hunting in the mountains.

Instinctively, Wang Meng asked Gu Ya, “Brother Gu, could it be that you’ve broken your legs?”

“It seems so.” The feeling in both legs was the same as when Gu Ya had broken his leg for the first time; he had a sense of what had happened, knowing he must have broken them when he fell.

Knowing that Gu Ya’s legs were broken, Wang Meng said, “Brother Gu, since you can’t move your legs, let’s do this! I’ll carry you up the mountain right now.”

“Thank you so much, Big Brother Wang.” Gu Ya had no other choice; in his current condition, he could only let Wang Meng carry him back up. Otherwise, with his legs broken,

he wouldn’t be able to climb the mountain on his own.

Wang Meng had a rope tied around his waist, used for binding game, which he now used to secure Gu Ya to his back; after tying him firmly, Wang Meng carried Gu Ya, clinging to the vines as he climbed upward.

Gu Ya had fallen off a cliff, and it was urgent to carry him back to the village to find a doctor. Having climbed the cliff with Gu Ya on his back, Wang Meng still had the wolf on top of the cliff; if he left it there, other hunters might take advantage of the free prize.

Luckily, Wang Meng was tall and sturdy; despite carrying Gu Ya, he could still drag the wolf. Wang Meng’s house was at the edge of the mountain, just at the foot of the hill.

When passing Wang Meng’s house, he first dragged the wolf to his home before continuing to carry Gu Ya back to the Gu Family. As for the wolf, Gu Ya and Wang Meng had agreed that after selling it, they would split the silver evenly.

That morning, Su Yunjin had gone to the market to get medicine for Gu Ya, and after Wang Meng sold the wolf, he brought half of the silver, fifteen taels, to Gu Ya.

The silver was the result of Gu Ya’s hunting, and since he had also fallen off a cliff because of it, he was afraid that his young wife, upon learning about it, might worry. When his wife inquired about what game he had sold to earn the silver,

Gu Ya didn’t plan to tell her the truth.

After thinking it over, Gu Ya said, “Yunjin, I made this silver by selling a roe deer.”

“Roe deer?” Su Yunjin was skeptical. She had once accompanied Gu Ya to the market to sell a roe deer, but it didn’t fetch nearly as much, “Can a roe deer sell for so much?”
