C9 With My Brother There Is Nothing to be Afraid of

"Ah!"

A sudden scream made Lin Tian and the others, who were working in the field, raise their heads.

They looked in the direction of the scream and couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

They saw that Lin Xiaoguo had run to the swamp beside the field to play. She lost her balance and fell into the swamp.

Wang Cuijuan shouted anxiously when she saw this.

"Xiaoguo!"

When everyone saw this sudden situation, they immediately threw down the work in their hands and ran towards the swamp.

This swamp was famous for its dangers in the Lin Village.

In the past, there were villagers who used to herd cows in this place. If they were not careful, the entire cow would be submerged in the swamp and disappear without a trace. No one knew how deep it went.

No one in the village wanted Lin Tian's land, and the swamp was one of the reasons. It was too dangerous.

Lin Tian rushed over immediately. He saw Xiaobao guarding the edge of the swamp, meowing in Lin Xiaoguo's direction. It looked very anxious.

Lin Tian glared at Xiaobao, quickly took off his gloves and shoes, and said.

"Since Xiaoguo is so obedient, it must be because of you. I'll settle the score with you later!"

After saying that, he walked into the swamp and walked in Lin Xiaoguo's direction.

Everyone behind him was extremely anxious.

"Be careful!"

Lin Xiaoguo was stuck in the sticky mud and kept screaming.

The children of the Lin Village had grown up listening to the terrifying rumors of the swamp since they were young, so she was extremely afraid.

Lin Tian looked at Lin Xiaoguo's situation calmly and found that she had fallen at the edge of the swamp.

He comforted her gently, "Xiaoguo, don't move. The more you struggle, the deeper you sink. Don't be afraid. Brother is here. Brother will save you."

Under Lin Tian's comforting, Lin Xiaoguo gradually calmed down and quietly waited for him to save her.

"Brother, Xiaoguo is not afraid."

Lin Tian's feet were deep and shallow. He felt the depth of the ground and found that the mud only reached his thighs. He felt a lot more at ease.

Without much effort, he walked to Lin Xiaoguo's side and suddenly grabbed her hand, lifting her up from the mud.

"Brother is here. Don't be afraid."

"Brother!"

Lin Xiaoguo cried softly as she hugged Lin Tian tightly and obediently stayed in his arms.

Lin Tian carried Lin Xiaoguo and steadily walked towards the shore step by step.

When they reached the shore, Lin Guoming quickly took Lin Xiaoguo from him. Wang Cuijuan looked at the two of them, who had turned into mud, and was so anxious that tears came out of her eyes.

Bai Ling looked at Lin Tian, who was covered in mud, and handed him a towel.

She had a smile on her face. She felt that Lin Tian was even more handsome than usual.

Wang Cuijuan wiped the mud off Lin Xiaoguo's body and couldn't help but scold her.

"Child, why are you so naughty? How many times have I told you not to approach this swamp? Do you remember now?"

Lin Xiaoguo's face was like a cat's as she said pitifully, "I didn't mean to. I was just playing with Xiaobao when I saw something strange over there. I thought it was a big conch, so I wanted to pick it up. The big conch was so slippery that it scared me.

Then there was a loud noise in the mud, and it made me jump, and I fell in. The mud was awful..."

" Ai, you silly child! "

When Lin Tian heard their conversation, he looked in that direction and walked towards the place Lin Xiaoguo mentioned.

There, Lin Tian found the conch that Lin Xiaoguo was talking about.

The "conch" looked very big, about the size of a big snail. It was dark brown in color, and upon closer inspection, it was curled up into a ball.

If one didn't see it clearly, it wouldn't be strange to mistake it for a snail.

Lin Tian sighed and said to Lin Xiaoguo, "My sister, this isn't a snail, it's a leech!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoguo trembled.

"Leech? It can suck blood! I'm so scared!"

Lin Tian frowned and said to Wang Cuijuan, "Mom, hurry up and see if there are any leeches on Lin Xiaoguo's body. I suspect that the swamp is full of leeches. This one is very big, and the legs of a buffalo can be skinny."

Leeches were common in the wetlands of the farmlands. They hid in muddy places in the water and drank blood.

Wang Cuijuan and Bai Ling quickly checked the mud on Lin Xiaoguo's body for leeches.

"No! Thank God!"

Wang Cuijuan heaved a sigh of relief.

Lin Guoming walked to Lin Tian's side and muttered as he looked at the shiny black leech.

"Although leeches can suck blood, they are good stuff and can be used for medicine. If there are a lot of them, you can sell them to the pharmacy. I heard the price is very high."

Lin Tian's eyes lit up. Now, as long as he could get money, he would be interested.

Wang Cuijuan said.

"Lin Xiaoguo, where are your shoes? Why are they missing?"

Lin Xiaoguo said with a sullen face, "They fell into the mud pool."

"Sigh, you child, you just bought the shoes a few days ago. If you lose them, what are you going to wear?"

Hearing Wang Cuijuan's helpless words, Lin Tian said, "It's fine. I'll go find her shoes."

He thought of what Lin Xiaoguo had said just now.

There was a splash in the water. Maybe it was a fish.

When he went to find Lin Xiaoguo just now, he felt a lot of strange sounds under the mud. It should be a fish.

It was not surprising that there were fish in the swamp. He heard that someone in the village had caught fish in there before.

Maybe he could catch a fish to taste today.

He was covered in mud anyway, so he didn't care if it was dirty.

After saying that, he walked directly into the swamp.

"Tian, what are you doing? It's dangerous! Come back quickly!"

Lin Guoming was the first to notice and quickly shouted at him.

Lin Tian waved his hand at him without turning his head and said calmly, "Dad, it's fine! I went to the place where Lin Xiaoguo was just now to find her shoes. It's not dangerous, it's very shallow."

"This child!"

Lin Guoming could only be anxious.

Lin Tian bent down and fumbled in the mud pool.

When he was young, he had played with fish before, so he had some experience in catching fish.

On the surface, he wanted to find shoes for Lin Xiaoguo, but in fact, he wanted to catch fish while he was at it. The food at home was too bad, and he couldn't even see the meat star.

Looking at the muddy water in front of him, Lin Tian concentrated. His hearing and vision were magnified to the limit, as if not a single movement in the water could escape his ears and eyes.

Yesterday, Lin Tian noticed that his myopia, which was originally over 100 degrees, had become much clearer.

He guessed that absorbing the Spirit Energy in the Bead Space had improved his physique, and even his myopia had been cured.

Not long after, Lin Tian saw small bubbles appear on the surface of the water around him, and there was a slight movement in the nearby soil.

He immediately stopped, as quiet as a log.

Then, he stuck his hands into a certain spot in the mud and grabbed it!
