Gu Sheng left a wild rabbit for Gu Erniu, but only instructed Li Lian to take good care of Gu Erniu and ensure he properly tended to his wounds. Then, he returned to his own home.
The two didn't mention anything about Li Yan.
As for the aftermath, they had already reached an agreement.
They decided to act as if the incident had never happened. Regarding Gu Erniu's injury, they would claim he had been bitten by a wild wolf.
Gu Sheng closed his door firmly.
He threw the deer he had carried back into the wooden basin, fetched water from the well, and prepared to clean and process it.
Next.
He opened the leather sack, revealing the silver fox lying there intact. Gu Sheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief; he had truly been worried that the battle earlier might have damaged the fox's coat, which would have resulted in a significant loss.
For now, Gu Sheng chose not to tell Gu Erniu about hunting the silver fox.
