Lu Xingfei and Sun Qingguo took a car back to the Jiangzhou Military Region family compound.
It was just after noon and the old man had just finished his meal. When he saw them, he was so scared that he started hiccuping.
"Uncle, what's the matter?" Lu Xingfei greeted him tiredly.
Sun Qingguo still had a foot injury and could not walk, so he had to rely on others to support him or carry him on his back.
Hearing this, the old man came to his senses and looked at them again and again, confirming again and again that they were still alive. He slapped his thigh happily and shouted, "Oh my God! You are still alive!"
As he spoke, he turned around and continued to shout loudly in the courtyard: "Hey! Come and see! Battalion Commander Lu and Deputy Battalion Commander Sun are back! Battalion Commander Lu and Deputy Battalion Commander Sun are still alive!"
As he was shouting, tears welled up in his eyes. He turned around and said excitedly, "Your wives, Chen Fang and Wang Youyou, thought you were gone and are so sad. They went to see you at the place where you had the accident this morning with Battalion Commander Zhang."
"Uncle, don't get excited, we understand." Lu Xingfei quickly persuaded him.
Hearing the old man's shouts, the soldiers and their wives who were on leave at home came down to visit them.
Everyone excitedly surrounded Lu Xingfei and Sun Qingguo and asked about their well-being.
Sun Qingguo's foot was hit by a rock in the river and he is now in a hurry to go to the hospital.
Lu Xingfei asked his comrades to send Sun Qingguo to the hospital first, while he called Liu Qinmin to tell him that they were still alive.
Since Wang Youyou and the others mistakenly thought they were gone, they probably just went to pay their respects and should be back in the afternoon.
Thinking of this, he calmly went home to take a hot bath and have a good rest.
He wants to be in the best condition to welcome Wang Youyou back.
Think about it, if Wang Youyou knew he was still alive, she would probably jump up with excitement, right?
It was almost six o'clock in the afternoon when the sound of the jeep returning was finally heard.
He went downstairs happily, but only saw Chen Fang's family.
When Chen Fang's family learned that Sun Qingguo was still alive, they happily rushed to the hospital.
"Where is Wang Youyou?" Lu Xingfei asked Li Hanrong nervously.
Not seeing Wang Youyou made him feel something was wrong.
Li Hanrong confessed honestly: "Sister-in-law and Lao Zhang went to look for you. They said they would look for you for four days, so I came back first."
Hearing this, Lu Xingfei was frightened. There were wild boars in that place, and the soil was soft, so it was very unsafe.
If they went to the mountains to look for Wang Youyou, a weak woman, it would be impossible to find her even with Lao Zhang.
"Give me the car keys."
His face was filled with astonishment, which frightened Li Hanrong. "With Lao Zhang here, there's nothing to be afraid of. They'll just walk along the river and come back."
"No." Lu Xingfei knew Wang Youyou. "Wang Youyou is so smart. If she could find us by the river, we would have been found long ago. So with Wang Youyou's personality, she would definitely try to look for us in the mountains."
Li Hanrong suddenly realized, "I'll go with you!"
Lu Xingfei said with a serious expression: "Well, it's getting dark, I will set off alone first. Please help me report to the leader and request fifty brothers to come to support me."
He didn't want to stay for a moment.
"Yes." Li Hanrong seemed to have received a mission. He left Lu Jinfeng and immediately returned to the army to gather his brothers to set off.
…
On the other side, Zhang Jingxu and Wang Youyou followed the route that Lu Xingfei and his men were most likely to take and walked into the mountains.
After the rain, the mountain road was wet and slippery.
Wang Youyou shouted as she walked.
When it was almost dark, she and Zhang Jingxu finally reached the top of the mountain.
At a glance, you can see the Wanjiang River across four or five mountains.
Because we didn't eat lunch and walked for five or six hours, everyone was tired and hungry.
There is an open space in front and a big rock.
"Let's go there and rest for a while!" Wang Youyou said, pointing to the open space.
"Okay." Zhang Jingxu climbed up first.
This big rock is very flat and there are no big trees blocking the view in front, so you can see farther and more clearly.
When Wang Youyou climbed up the big rock, her foot slipped and she accidentally fell.
"Are you okay?" Zhang Jingxu asked quickly.
Wang Youyou stood up, clapped his hands, and said calmly: "It's okay."
Thinking that she might be too short to climb up, Zhang Jingxu reached out to her: "Grab my hand, I'll pull you up."
"Thank you." Wang Youyou had no choice but to extend her hand.
Zhang Jingxu had great arm strength and easily pulled her up.
Wang Youyou took off her raincoat, put it on a rock, took out a lunch box from her backpack, and sat on the ground.
The weather was hot, and she was afraid that if she cooked too much and couldn't finish it, the food would go bad, so she only brought one box of lunch.
Thinking back to the beginning, she just wanted Zhang Jingxu to accompany her for a walk by the river, but now she wanted Zhang Jingxu to accompany her to climb the mountain, and the mountain road was so difficult to walk on, she suddenly felt embarrassed.
But there was only one serving of fried rice, so she gave the lunch box to Zhang Jingxu: "Captain Zhang, I only brought one serving of fried rice, I'll give it to you!"
"It's okay, you eat it and I'll eat the biscuits." Zhang Jingxu saw biscuits in the backpack and picked up a pack of biscuits.
Wang Youyou felt bad, so she suggested, "This is the vegetable and egg rice I made this morning. It's quite generous. If you don't mind, let's eat it together!"
Seeing the apology in her eyes, Zhang Jingxu did not hesitate, "Okay, you eat first, and I'll eat the leftovers!"
"How can this be?" Wang Youyou put down the lid of the lunch box and poured some fried rice out of it.
"You eat from the lunch box, and I'll eat from the lid." As she said that, she handed him the lunch box and the spoon.
She ate it with her hands.
Seeing her so considerate, Zhang Jingxu was touched and gave her the spoon, "Eat with a spoon."
