After walking forward for a while, the two found a small cave.

It can accommodate two people without any problem.

There are just too many weeds in front.

Lu Cheng took out the small knife he carried with him and cleared the weeds at the entrance of the cave.

He found some dry firewood and started a fire inside.

After taking some soft hay in, he said to her, "There shouldn't be any bugs in there. You go in first, and I'll go get some dry firewood.

Otherwise, the rain will last too long and we won’t be able to leave.”

He did all this in one go, and it was obvious that he often lived in the wild.

Meng Si Ning didn't act pretentiously: "I'll go with you."

"Need not."

It's past six o'clock now, and if you're outside, it should be very bright.

But in the forest, the trees hid the view, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, making it pitch black.

It looks like a rainstorm is coming. Oh, as soon as I speak of the devil, he appears. The raindrops have already started to fall.

"Let's go faster together."

This time Lu Cheng did not object, and the two of them found some dry firewood nearby, but they didn't pick up much.

On his way back, Lu Cheng found a nest of baby rabbits under a dead tree trunk.

"Wow, they are so small." Meng Si Ning saw them at a glance and looked over.

Lu Cheng dug around twice and found that out of the three inside, only one was still moving.

"We were recently conducting an exercise here, and our teammates caught a lot of wild rabbits in the mountains. The big rabbit in this nest must have not returned all day. It must have died outside. Look, the little rabbits have all starved to death."

Meng Si Ning touched the two motionless rabbits. One of them was already stiff, and the other one was also very weak.

It looks like it will be less than a month.

Meng Si Ning took the little rabbit in his hand, picked up some of the mother rabbit's fur from the nest, and said to Lu Cheng, "Let's go back to the cave and see if we can save it."

Lu Cheng dug up some soil with his feet and buried the dead rabbit.

Quickly returned to the cave.

After a while, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier.

Meng Si Ning held the little rabbit in his arms to keep it warm and really wanted to take out some milk powder from the space.

Too bad it's not explained.

It reminds me of toffee.

He put the rabbit between his legs, took out a piece of toffee from his backpack, opened the kettle, put some water on the kettle lid, and ground the toffee in the lid until it became syrup.

Dip your finger in the candy water and put it next to the little rabbit's mouth.

At first he was indifferent, but after a while, he started licking it.

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "This little guy has a very strong vitality."

"If it survives, I'll bring it to my best friend. She works in the commune and is encouraging villagers to raise rabbits."

"Have you made a lot of friends in the year since you came back?"

"Not many, maybe one or two."

Lu Cheng looked at her and smiled: "You are just like it, you have a strong ability to adapt. This kind of lop-eared rabbit doesn't grow up. A few days ago, our team caught an adult one, but it was very small."

“You can keep it as a pet.”

In Lu Cheng's opinion, a little rabbit will die if played with by children for a few days, and it cannot be kept for long.

Seeing Meng Sining taking care of the little rabbit so carefully, I felt like she was treating her like a child.

The entrance to the cave is not big. It must be that someone from nearby came to the mountain before and dug a resting place here.

Lu Cheng is about 1.8 meters tall, and his long legs take up a lot of space, so it is still very cramped for two people to sit inside.

If there hadn't been a little rabbit there, it would have been even more awkward with the two staring at each other.

Lu Cheng took out a small flashlight from his bag and placed it in the groove on the wall.

Seeing many flying insects through the light source, he quickly took out some cooling oil from his pocket and gave it to her: "Apply this. There are many mosquitoes at night."

"You brought this too. I brought it too, but our captain said we had to be secretive these two nights. We were not allowed to put anything with a smell on our bodies to avoid being discovered. As a result, I was bitten by insects for two nights. Look." He stretched out his arms for Lu Cheng to see.

There are big bumps of all sizes on it caused by mosquito bites.

Lu Cheng laughed: "Captain Zhang of the 358th is just a rough guy. He has never led a few female soldiers before. He doesn't understand this at all."

"Have you ever led female soldiers?"

"I trained a small team... Sigh, it's so pretentious and such a headache, I don't even want to deal with it." He pointed at the Fengyoujing and said, "But I've learned a lot from experience. Look, I'm much more careful now. Apply it, follow me, and I guarantee you won't get bit by mosquitoes."

Meng Si Ning smiled: "I didn't expect Captain Lu to be so compassionate to women."

Lu Cheng looked at her and smiled without refuting.

"Are you hungry?"

"A little."

Lu Cheng had just taken out two compressed biscuits from his pocket when he saw Meng Si Ning take out a few egg cakes.

Looking at the biscuits in his hand, he couldn't help but laugh: "I was too careless."

Meng Si Ning asked, "Is this all you eat when you're out on missions?"

“Not really, but mostly.”

“That’s pretty hard.”

Meng Si Ning thought of instant noodles. A bucket of instant noodles would be perfect at this time, but unfortunately he couldn't get any out: "Eat the egg cake instead of that."

"No, keep it for yourself."

"Eat it, I still have this." Meng Si Ning said, and took out a few mung bean cakes from his pocket.

There are also a few sausages and beef jerky.

Lu Cheng watched her take things out bit by bit, then looked at her Lei Feng bag and said in surprise, "Your bag can really hold a lot of things."

Meng Si Ning quickly explained: "I...I never let myself down, so I brought a lot of food.

Tonight is also a good opportunity for a picnic, Comrade Lu, please come."
