Vol 2 Chapter 480: -Guilt

As soon as he thought of this question, A Jie held back his breath and became swift and nervous, almost written on his face.
Seeing him like this, A Niu just thought that A Jie also thought of the fire in the eastern plain that Ji thief had said about the serious consequences. He had no extra thoughts on A Jie who trusted him.
"A Jie, hurry up, come and see with me to see what happened!"
An Niu said anxiously.
"Don't be bullied!"
Seeing Aniu was going, A Jie's anxious leader arrested him.
Right now, A Niu turned his head in doubt, looked at A Jie puzzled, and didn't know why A Jie had stopped him.
I only saw that A Jie lowered his head and babbled for a while, and finally said in his throat: "I, I have seen it, there is nothing wrong there."
Aniu couldn't help frowning: "It's all right?"
A Jie nodded: "Yes, it's okay, I'm sure."
"Have you really seen it? Then why is there still thick smoke rising?" Aniu pointed to the distance.
A Jie looked up at A Niu in surprise.
A Niu pushed A Jie away: "A Jie, this is not a trivial matter. The patriarch said that if there is a fire in the wild, what will happen."
As he said, Aniu was about to move forward. Just stepping out, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked back at A Jie with a strange expression.
Being stared at by A Niu's gaze, A Jie couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.
"A Jie, tell me the truth, did you just cause the fire?"
A Jie hurriedly shook his head: "How is it possible! Am I that kind of person? I don't know who caused the fire. I also saw the smoke before it passed. Moreover, I promised to put out the fire before returning."
"Then why is there still smoke?"
A Jie shook his head: "I don't know that."
"A Jie, if it was you who lighted the fire, it would be fine. Say it and we will put it out. But you can't lie." A Niu sighed.
He really didn't wrong A Jie, the fire was really A Jie's point, after all, it was A Jie's cooking in a copper pot.
Although the truth is so, it is impossible for A Jie to admit this matter.
If he said, then, a new question will come. Why are you going to start the fire for nothing? Ok?
This is simply something that is not clearly explained.
"Well, if you don't rest assured, let's go and see again." A Jie said directly after gritting his teeth.
When he uttered these words in his mouth, A Jie couldn't help thinking, at this point, Mulian should have already left.
Seeing what A Jie said, A Niu turned his head and said to the tribe who came out with him: "Let's go!"
With the effort of speaking, everyone rushed in the direction of smoke.
After walking for ten minutes, I saw that the smoke was already much smaller, and after walking for a while, there was no smoke in the air.
A Jie even said to A Niu: "Look, I didn't lie, I really have put out the fire, otherwise, why would I be so embarrassed?"
Aniu's heart was just puzzled, and he asked whether this fire had nothing to do with A Jie? It's just the hunting department who accidentally left it outside?
Although, Aliang doesn't have the habit of barbecuing when going out hunting, because he always takes the food for lunch with him. However, it is hard to guarantee that the people below do not do this.
It's better to take a look.
Finally I came to the place where the smoke started. A Niu looked around, and after searching for a while, he found the pit where A Jie and Mulian had a private meeting.
A Jie's heart has been hanging since he came to this place. When A Niu himself got into the pit, A Jie couldn't help but want to stop him.
But Aniu's movements were too fast, and when A Jie was about to shout, Aniu had already entered.
"Mulian ah, you must not be in it!"
Frightened and closed his eyes, A Jie couldn't help praying in his heart.
After a while, Aniu came out of the pit, his face gloomy.
"How about Aniu, have you noticed anything?" Seeing Aniu's expression, A Jie's heart shook, saying that his heart is broken. Wouldn't Mulian leave yet?
"I found this inside."
While speaking, Aniu raised his hand and took out a piece of animal skin.
Seeing this, A Jie couldn't help but froze, and then his eyes widened suddenly.
This animal skin was worn by him a few days ago.
Sure enough, I saw A Niu asking, "A Jie, why is the animal skin on your body in this place?"
"Ahem." A Jie who didn't know how to answer hurriedly coughed. Taking advantage of this time, his brain was running fast, thinking about how to answer A Niu's question.
"Um, didn't I tell you, I just put out the fire, I must have used animal skins to slap the fire, I don't know why I fell here."
A Jie said.
A Niu couldn't help but was taken aback when he heard the words, wondering if A Jie was really putting out the fire just now?
While thinking about it, a group of people ran up panting in the distance.
Take a closer look, but it was the thief who brought Tushan and more than a dozen members of the military department.
"Master Patriarch!"
Seeing Ji Thief, everyone turned to him and bowed their heads and shouted respectfully.
Ji thief gasped loudly: "I'm exhausted so far, Damn, Ah Niu, you let me tell me that there is a fire, how is the situation?"
Aniu turned around and looked behind his back without making a look.
Ji Thief gave a sigh, and took a few steps forward: "Where is the fire?"
A Niu pointed to A Jie and said, "A Jie has been put out."
"A Jie? Why are you here?"
"My patriarch."
Facing Ji Thief, A Jie always felt a little guilty in his heart. For one thing, it was because Ji Thief treated him so well, but he violated Ji Thief's orders. Secondly, it was because he lied to Ji Thief.
"Today, Tushan is looking for you and you are not here. Could it be that you came to put out the fire?" Ji Thief turned to look at A Jie and asked.
Hearing this, A Jie was taken aback: "Did Tushan look for me?"
The thief nodded: "Isn't it because Usma is sick and no one cooperates with me? I think about it, and you can follow my thoughts in the tribe, but unfortunately I didn't find you, so you came here to put out the fire. "
The more Ji Zei said so, the more ashamed A Jie lowered his head.
"Okay, since it's okay, it's okay, it's a false alarm. A Jie, you did a good job of this." Ji Thief praised.
A Jie's head was buried even lower.
His face was scorching hot, and he was extremely ashamed.
Everyone just thought A Jie was shy, and Ji Thief was even more so. He stepped forward and patted A Jie on the shoulder and said, "What's the matter, you were awkward when you praised you before. Why is it the same as Usma before? ?"
A Jie reluctantly raised his face: "No, there is no patriarch."
When saying this, A Jie just hesitated in his heart.
Ji Thief trusted him so much, and A Jie fell into a deep entanglement for a while. In fact, he really wanted to tell Ji Thief the truth of the matter.
But if I said it myself, Mulian would never survive.
As one of the most valued and trusted people of Ji thief, A Jie knew how much Ji thief hated Mulian.
On the one hand, he felt sorry for Ji Thief, and on the other hand, he was reluctant to bear the Mulian. He could only fall into an endless loop.
"But then again, how could this good eastern plain catch fire? Could it be that Aliang's hunting department made some moths? No, wait for him to come back and talk about him." Ji thief pinched his chin. Muttered.
No one heard what he was saying.
"Aniu." Ji Thief shouted.
Anniu came forward upon hearing the words: "Master Patriarch."
Ji Zei pointed to the vicinity of the pit and said, "Fill this pit, and check it out nearby to make sure that there are no sparks around."
A Niu nodded and said yes.
At this time, Ji Zei turned around, took a look at A Jie, and said, "Let's go back."
Meeting Ji Zei's gaze, A Jie suddenly panicked inwardly.
I don't know if it was his own illusion, A Jie always felt that Ji Thief seemed to know something.
It is also possible that this is an illusion caused by his own guilty conscience, or it is possible that the thief really knows something.
After all, Ji Thief was the only person A Jie had ever seen with great wisdom and unfathomable depth.
For myself, this feeling is like looking up at a high mountain from a soil slope, unclimbable.
Nodding lightly, A Jie followed Ji Thief.
Seeing A Jie's awkward appearance during the action, Ji Thief couldn't help but sigh, and asked what happened to A Jie?
Ji thief, who had never suspected that there was anything wrong with A Jie, couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help but shook his head and walked towards the direction of the tribe.
