Hunting the bear
Back to the present.
Old Madam Yu scolded the two kids, if not for the dangerous situation they were in at the moment, she would have given Yu Mai and Li Yuya a few hits. These two brats! They actually came to the forest and that too so deep in the mountains. They were fortunate that the villagers and Yu Dong found out about their disappearance in time, all thanks to the small pups who barked and alerted the entire village through the rest of the livestock.
If not then these two children would have died and eaten by this bear in this mountain and no one would have found even their bones! Bears were known to eat everything, especially bears who were hungry and starved. This bear clearly came down the mountain, looking around the forest for food because of the drought.
