"Lin Qingping! Are you here? Just promise me!" He came down from above, along the steep slope, the flashlight swaying, and several beams swept over Lin Qingping.

Lin Qingping looked at him and wanted to agree, but when she opened her mouth, for some reason, no sound came out.

Zhong Xiaoxiao answered for her.

Zhong Xiaoxiao waved her hands vigorously, "Here! We are all here! Lin Qingping is here too!"

After saying that, she added, "She's still alive! She's alive!"

Lin Qingping: …

It’s alive…

Then, she saw the beam of light rushing down like flying, all the way to her front, illuminating the darkness before her eyes, and his face also became bright and clear.

Dark skin, hard features, and brighter than the light are his eyes in the darkness.

"Lin Qingping." He panted slightly, his eyes determined, "I'll carry you!"

Lin Qingping didn't say anything. He seemed to be afraid that she would refuse. His eyes darkened and he added, "This is an order!"

Brief, powerful, and resounding, just like the orders he gave to the troops, which left no room for doubt or opposition.

He turned around, his back facing her, and said, "Come up."

Lin Qingping raised her hands, but only one was lifted, the other one was in pain. Her foot was also in pain as she stood like this.

He waited for a while, but there was no movement. He turned around and suddenly realized something. His face changed. "Are you hurt?"

"Yes, we are all injured. We don't know if any bones are broken or fractured..." Zhong Xiaoxiao, who was still sitting on the ground, rushed to speak.

Gu Juncheng looked at Lin Qingping and his voice changed, "Then why did you walk so far? And stand straight?"

"We just don't want to wait for death..." He Xin explained behind Lin Qingping.

"How can I wait to die!" Gu Juncheng shouted angrily, "I will definitely come!"

The Four in Distress: …

Who knew you would come?

Gu Juncheng squatted down to check Lin Qingping's injuries.

Lin Qingping was covered in mud, and her clothes and pants were all soaked in mud. However, Gu Juncheng had many years of military experience and had encountered such situations before. After examining her carefully, he determined that there were probably problems with her hands and feet, either dislocated or fractured, but fortunately, both her knees were fine.

"Captain, the three of them are probably injured. How are we going to take them back?" Oda was a little worried.

"Wait a moment." This sentence was said to Lin Qingping. After that, Gu Juncheng called Xiaotian and two other young men. Each of them broke a few bamboos nearby, then put them together and tied them tightly quickly to make a bamboo stretcher.

"Two of you carry the two girls, and the other one carries the boy." Gu Juncheng arranged. Of course, he himself carried Lin Qingping.

Gong Jing had been crying the whole time. After Gu Juncheng and the others showed up, they briefly left to look for bamboo nearby and make a bamboo stretcher. During the entire process, Gong Jing stopped crying.

When Gong Jing and Zhong Xiaoxiao were carried onto stretchers, they finally relaxed completely.

Zhong Xiaoxiao also said to Gong Jing, "Now you are finally not afraid anymore, right? And you are not crying anymore."

Gong Jing was a little embarrassed. "I stopped crying when I saw them coming. Didn't they say that Lin Qingping's husband is a soldier? Then what is there to be afraid of?"

It was cold in the mountains, so Gu Juncheng took off his coat and put it on Lin Qingping. Then, he squatted down and easily carried Lin Qingping on his back. He walked with big strides and shouted, "Hey boy, can you move your hands? If you can, take the flashlight and light us up."

Zhong Xiaoxiao said hurriedly, "My hands can move, so I can take pictures for you."

After Zhong Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Xiaotian gave her the flashlight.

Xiaotian looked at the leader's coat on Lin Qingping and understood that the four of them were wet and cold and might get sick, so he took off his cotton jacket and covered the two girls with it, blushing and saying, "Warm them up for now, don't mind."

"What about you?" How could Gong Jing and Zhong Xiaoxiao dislike him? They were still worried about him.

"I'm fine, we're in good health!" Xiaotian said, and he and his companions, each carrying one end of the bamboo stretcher, followed Gu Juncheng's pace.

Lin Qingping has been very quiet.

When Gu Juncheng came to rescue her, she did not resist, nor did she argue with him, nor did she fight with Zhong Xiaoxiao for the stretcher to prevent him from carrying her.

She has always been cooperative and obedient.

At this moment, lying on Gu Juncheng's back, listening to them talking, he admitted that what Gong Jing said was right: the moment he saw him coming, he was not afraid of anything.

Even though he was her ex-husband, even though he no longer remembered her, even though he had even said hurtful words to her for Chen Xia, there was one thing she was sure of: since he had come, he would definitely save her, and he would definitely be able to rescue her, even if she was just a passerby, he would do it, not to mention that she was his ex-wife.

This is determined by his integrity and character, and has nothing to do with their relationship.

Their chat continued.

Zhong Xiaoxiao was very curious why they appeared here.

"Like gods descending from the sky." Zhong Xiaoxiao also described them this way.

Gu Juncheng never said a word, but Xiaotian would speak.

"Our leader knows that you are going into the mountains! Didn't you tell him when you were having dinner in my restaurant? The leader heard it. This afternoon, the clouds in the sky changed. My grandparents and parents are very experienced. Looking at the clouds, they said that there might be a heavy rainstorm in the evening. Our leader was worried that if it rained heavily, there would be landslides or falling rocks in the mountains, so we went into the mountains." Oda spoke carefully and, of course, did not forget to express the leader's worry and concern in every word.

Gu Junben was walking with his head down. When he heard Xiaotian talking, he interrupted him coldly, "Have you said enough? Stop exaggerating and talking nonsense."

Xiaotian didn't dare to say anything more, but he muttered in his mouth, "What nonsense is that? Before the rain, the ants outside our house were in a hurry to move, and you were also walking around like an ant on a hot pot."

Zhong Xiaoxiao couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this.

Lin Qingping didn't laugh.

Maybe she was too tired...

She lay on Gu Juncheng's back, bouncing with the rhythm of his walking, which made her feel a little dizzy. The sound of their conversations seemed distant and near.

She tried to stay awake and dozed off several times, but she used her willpower to force herself to wake up.

However, human willpower is limited, and in the end, he was unable to resist the fatigue of his body. Lin Qingping relaxed and fell asleep on his shoulder.

Even on such a cold and rainy night.

Even though she had just been in life-threatening danger.

Even though she was covered in mud and was lying on her ex-husband's back.

He also couldn't resist the fatigue that came from the sudden relaxation of the bowstring after it was fully drawn.

In the moment before she fell asleep, she thought: Forget it, let’s sleep, he is Gu Juncheng…
