<h4>Chapter 868 Missing Out</h4>


    Ah Cai did not believe that the curse of the evil children was caused by the phosphorescence or some other fire. He often traveled deep into the mountains. He was the only person in the vige who had seen the phosphorescence. No, it was the only two. Ah Gen had also seen it. At that time, they were also shocked. After all, there had never been a thing like phosphorous here for thousands of years.


    However, because it had been thousands of years, there were always changes in the geology, so it was not unusual for these things to appear. Therefore, Ah Gen knew that these things were not a curse at all. This showed the difference between Ah Cai and Ah Gen and the vige. They could ept different things. Different people were not like everyone in the vige, who treated the n leader like they had eaten bewitching soup, they treated everything in the vige as if they were gods.


    Ah Cai ran over from the small path. Naturally, he was much better off than Yan Kuan and the others who were unfamiliar with the path. Once he reached Ah Gen’s house, he immediately rushed to the kitchen counter.


    At that time, he had already told the two children that he woulde to pick them up. Therefore, even though the two children were already exhausted, they still forced themselves to be alert. When they saw that Ah Cai had indeede, they immediately carried their bags and walked out with him.


    As Ah Cai lived on the mountainside, this route was naturally very difficult to take. He was the farthest person in the entire vige, so at this moment, there was no one around him on the road that he was taking. Even those people who were chasing after Da Bap and Little Treasure had all gathered because of the sudden fire in the square.


    Therefore, although the road was not easy to walk on, it was quite smooth.


    Although Ah Cai was only a bachelor, he had been single for many years. All these years, he had been taking care of himself. Therefore, although this house looked even shabbier than Ah Gen’s house, it was extremely clean and tidy.


    Moreover, because Ah Cai was good at hunting, there was a lot of fur in the room. There was even a piece of bear skin on the bed. Therefore, speaking of which, Ah Cai’s residence was even morefortable than Ah Gen’s house.


    “You guys should stay in the hiddenpartment. I’ve already arranged everything so that we won’t be discovered. My ce is safer than your Uncle Gen’s. I’m the poorest in our entire vige, so they don’t like to associate with me.”


    “Uncle Cai, will Uncle Gen and the others be in trouble?”


    “They’ll probably be punished. We’ll find out tomorrow. You should hide quickly. I have to go back quickly so that they won’t find out.”


    Da Bao and Little Treasure didn’t dy Ah Cai much. They walked to Ah Cai’s bed and climbed down. The space below was at least twice as wide as the one at Ah Gen’s house. There was even an extremely small window that led to the river outside. It was extremely concealed. This way, the air was better. If it was daytime, they could still see a bit of sunlight.


    “Wow, Little Treasure, look, it’s tiger skin. It’s real.”


    “Yes, it’s real. It’s so powerful. This tiger’s head is so big.”


    The two children were a little excited when they saw the huge tiger head ced on the bedside and the same tiger skin on the bed.


    “The weather at night is a little cold. This is underground. It’s better to use this tiger skin to resist the cold.”


    “Thank you, Uncle Cai.”


    Ah Cai’s heart softened when he saw the soft and cuddly two children. He liked children very much, but the children in the vige did not like him to interact with him. Therefore, Ah Cai had always wanted to get married as soon as possible so that he could have a wife and give birth to a child as soon as possible.


    However, his wish had failed now. However, when he saw these two cute children, it was impossible for them to be the evil children they spoke of.


    “What are you thanking me for? Hurry up and hide. There is meat jerky over there. Don’t run around before Ie.”


    “We know. Thank you, Uncle Cai.”


    Da Bao’s big round eyes were wide open and adorable. She looked at Ah Cai with a grin, which made Ah Cai’s heart soften. He really wanted to have such a cuddly little girl in the future.


    After Ah Cai settled the two of them down, he hurriedly ran to the middle of the vige.


    On this side, Shen Xiaoxiao and Yan Kuan still could not find any trace of the two children. Seeing that the sky was about to brighten, the two of them had no choice but to return to Ah Gen’s house.


    Sitting on the bed, Shen Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong no matter how she thought about it. Not afraid of being tired, she checked the room again. When she walked to the kitchen, her eyes directly looked at the firewood pile from before.


    She pulled open the pile of firewood and sure enough, there was a secret door there.


    Yan Kuan went forward and opened it. A dark passageway appeared in front of them. The two of them walked down one after the other. This room was pitch-ck, but the things in the room were still clear at a nce.


    There was a bed, a simple table, a basin, and a bowl.


    The quilt on the bed was folded neatly. This was because Da Bao and Little Treasure were afraid of being discovered. They had tidied it up themselves. There were no other problems, but they had forgotten to clean up the bowl of bugs.


    Therefore, Yan Kuan took a look and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “This is not a granary. Someone has lived here before.”


    “Could it be the children?”


    Shen Xiaoxiao asked Yan Kuan anxiously, but Yan Kuan could not tell either. There was nothing of the children here, and there was almost no light at all. It was impossible to see anything at all.


    “The light is too dim. I can’t see clearly, but the two children should not eat these bugs, right? I remember that Da Bao is most afraid of these bugs.”


    “But if it’s not the children, then why did that man deliberately mislead us? He looked like he would not find us, but he said that this is a granary. Then who else was hidden here? The people in this vige will not save our children like that Ah Gen. they are extremely repelled by the people outside the vige.”


    “Don’t be anxious. I still remember that person’s appearance. I’ll go and check it out.” “I’ll go with you.”


    “Wait a moment. Listen, there seems to be a sound again.”


    When Shen Xiaoxiao heard Yan Kuan’s words, she indeed heard amotion. What was going on? “I reckon that they’re going to torture Ah Gen. If that’s the case, they’ll definitely return here. Why don’t we hide in this secret room?”


    “Hide here?”


    “We’ll wait for Ah Gen toe back on his own. When theye back, we’ll be able to get information about the children.”


    “This…”


    “You have to rest. No matter how important the children are, it’s not as important as you. If you fall, I’ll only be worried about you. You know that.”


    Yan Kuan’s words were considered a threat. Shen Xiaoxiao also knew that Yan Kuan would really be like what he said. If anything happened, he would really only care about her and ignore the children.


    Shen Xiaoxiao red at Yan Kuan fiercely. However, there was really nothing she could do now. She could only hope that the two children were a little smarter and could hide well so that they would not be discovered.


    “Don’t worry. If you’re fine, the children will naturally be fine. You have to believe them.”


    Shen Xiaoxiao finallypromised and could only obediently stay in the dark room.
