Captain Liu was very grateful when he learned that Song Yun went into the mountains alone to find ginseng for Fangfang, but he couldn't help but worry. It was already past 10 o'clock and the sky was getting darker. Not to mention whether she would encounter attacks from wild beasts, the temperature in the mountains was not something that ordinary people could withstand.
The more Captain Liu thought about it, the more anxious he became. He was running around in the Song family courtyard in a panic. At this time, the sky began to snow again. He could no longer remain calm. He slapped his thigh and said, "I'll go get someone to go into the mountains to find Xiaoyun. You take Ziyi and stay home. Don't go anywhere else."
This was the first time Captain Liu called Song Yun Xiaoyun since she came to this mountain village.
In the past, I always called her Song Zhiqing, even if I recognized Song Yun's abilities and skills in my heart, I still just called her Song Zhiqing.
But today, Song Yun has a different position in his heart and is closer to him.
Captain Liu went to the village and rang the gong, calling a dozen young men and strong men, who went into the mountains with torches to look for people.
At this time, Song Yun was rushing down the mountain. She looked extremely disheveled. Her cotton coat was torn by thorns in many places, and the holes where the cotton was bulging looked like large snowflakes piled on her body.
Not only were her clothes torn in many places, but her face and hands also had many scratches. It was obvious that she had rolled through a thorn bush. Fortunately, her cotton-padded clothes were thick in winter, and she had deliberately protected her head and face, so there were only some small scratches.
She carried a basket on her back, leaned on a wooden stick in one hand, and held a flashlight in the other, and walked slowly down the mountain. Her walking posture was a bit awkward, and she didn't dare to put any force on her left foot.
Despite her disheveled appearance, she kept a smile on her face. Although the process had been somewhat tortuous, she had dug up two ginseng roots today. One was placed in her backpack, covered with some common herbs, and the other was stored in her system's storage compartment. Both were aged wild ginseng, the kind that could sustain life, a treasure money couldn't buy. She felt very lucky, and this minor injury was nothing.
If Master were here, he would be very happy to see this quality of old ginseng.
"Song Zhiqing! Where are you from?"
Faint shouts came from the hillside below. She stopped and listened carefully.
It was indeed someone calling her, and soon she saw the torch moving, heading towards the direction she was in.
Judging from the sounds, there are quite a few people here.
Song Yun felt warm in her heart, and quickly raised her flashlight to respond with light, "I'm here!" she shouted.
Someone keenly noticed the flashlight and shouted, "There is light over there, like a flashlight."
Everyone quieted down and heard Song Yun's voice.
"It's Song Zhiqing, hurry up, Song Zhiqing, over there."
The team holding torches moved quickly and soon arrived in front of Song Yun.
Seeing Song Yun's miserable state, even a tough guy like Captain Liu couldn't help but burst into tears. "You silly child, how can you be so stupid? How can you be so brave? How dare you go into the mountains alone in this kind of weather? Are you trying to scare me to death?"
The other young men also had burning eyes. Song Zhiqing, a little girl, even risked her life to collect herbs to treat their illnesses.
Who doesn't have elderly people and children in their family? The recent cold wave has knocked down many of them. If such a thing happened in previous years, there would definitely be a situation where people were thrown to the ground. Not only would it cost money and effort, but it might not be possible to treat it so quickly and well. They all saw the dedication that Song Zhiqing had made for the villagers.
"What's wrong with you? Where are you hurt?" Captain Liu wiped his tears and asked hurriedly.
Song Yun waved her hand. "It's nothing. I just fell and twisted my ankle. It will be healed in a few days."
Captain Liu quickly thrust the torch into the hands of the man beside him and said, "I'll carry you."
Song Yun didn't dare to let him carry her on his back. It was dark now and the road was slippery, and the mountain road was even more difficult. Don't fall again, otherwise it would be a waste of time.
"No, no, I just twisted my ankle. I've already had an acupuncture injection and applied medicine. It doesn't hurt much now. Let's just walk slowly. It's okay."
Others said, "Song Zhiqing is right. It's not easy to walk on this road with someone on your back. If you fall again, it will be terrible."
