"So no one has gone looking this way?" she asked.
"Yes, but the soldiers who came back said that this road was difficult to travel, so we only sent one group to go there. After failing to find General Rest, we gave up on this route."
However, after hearing this, Meng Lu felt that this was the only hope. Few people went searching along this route, and what if Resid happened to be in a place that was missed?
"Let's go this way."
“But you…”
"Stop talking. If you're scared, don't follow me."
The soldiers were not afraid of the difficult road at all, they were just afraid that the lady would get hurt.
As the soldiers said, there was no pressure at the beginning. After walking for a kilometer, the ice on the road began to melt due to the sun, but it was not completely melted. They slipped and got wet again. If they waited until dark, the temperature would drop rapidly and they would easily suffer from hypothermia.
After walking for another hour, the sun was showing signs of setting, and they finally saw a village and went door to door asking questions.
Meng Lu stood by the road, looked up at the surrounding mountains, and asked Rested in his heart, where had he gone?
"Meng Lu?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind. Meng Lu turned around instantly, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
The surprise in Adrien's eyes also disappeared, "Is seeing me so disappointing to you?"
He walked over, holding on to the last glimmer of hope in his heart, "You've already left, why are you back? Did you come all the way here to find me? I really..."
"No."
Before he could even utter the word "happy", he felt completely disappointed and a little bit broken in his heart.
"Then what are you doing here? Are you here to see me in such a state of distress? Yes, there's no car here, so I had to rely on my own two legs to walk, and I ended up in such a mess. I admit that I still wanted to find you, but... are you really not here for me at all? Or perhaps even out of a bit of heartache?"
Meng Lu had spoken too quickly just now, hurting the other person's feelings. He felt a little regretful. "I didn't mean to leave without saying goodbye yesterday. I had an emergency. My partner disappeared on the way to rescue me, so I came here specifically to find him. By the way, I brought you some supplies. I see that you seem to have an injury on your arm. I brought some medicine. Let me help you apply it!"
Well, she still cares about him. Adrian knew that he was looking for candy in broken glass, but he was willing to convince himself that she cared about him.
After spending so many days together, he was the only one who quickly fell into depravity and couldn't extricate himself.
After the soldiers asked every household, they all said that they had not seen General Rest. Meng Lu sighed.
"Admiral Rest? Is he the one you're looking for?"
Hearing Adrian's words, Meng Qi's eyes immediately lit up, "Have you seen him?"
But after seeing him shaking his head, she lowered her head in disappointment and applied the medicine carefully.
"But... I've been resting in this village for most of the day, and I seem to have heard people in the village talking about some weird guy. Perhaps I can investigate from here."
Meng Lu glanced at the soldiers beside him, and the soldiers immediately understood what to do.
Adrian was very excited. He also hoped that the strange person those people were talking about was the admiral. On the one hand, Meng Lu would not have to run around anymore. On the other hand, he would be able to meet another of the most powerful psychic masters on Rose Star. He was very excited.
A moment later, according to what the soldiers found out, the strange man left along the road down the mountain. It happened a few days ago. The other party was thinly dressed and might have frozen to death on the road and was taken away by animals in the mountains.
Rested was so powerful that no one believed he would die in the mouth of an animal.
But now it was getting dark and it was not suitable to set off again, so the group had to stay in the village. Fortunately, the village was close to the tourist area and there were hotels.
At night, seven people gathered together to eat barbecue, and the firewood on the ground crackled.
"You have several scratches on your body. I'll have someone pick you up tomorrow and take you to the hospital."
"No." Adrien rejected her decision. "I'll go wherever you go. You said you'd give me a chance to pursue you. How can I pursue you if we're not together? Besides, you're in trouble, and I have to help you."
"Okay, I respect your decision." Meng Lu didn't say anything more. He was really too sleepy at the moment.
She was so sleepy that she wanted to fall asleep right there.
No, she woke up in an instant. No matter how sleepy a person is, they would not think of sleeping on the spot. There is something wrong with the meat.
The soldiers were all professionally trained. Although they realized they were drugged at the first moment, they were unable to resist the effects of the drug. Two of them had already fallen asleep on the ground.
The hotel owner came out laughing and said, "This is a unique herb that can confuse people in our village. It can bring down the strongest bear in the village. Stop struggling and hand over everything valuable on you."
"Why?" Meng Lu insisted on using his mental strength to hold on.
"Why? It's all because of this damn weather. No tourists dare to come. There is no money and no supplies. The army only distributes supplies to the refugees in Lusa City. They don't care about people like us." The man's face was full of hatred.
A few more people came out, obviously the chefs who were serving them meat.
"I think the Beast God is dissatisfied with the current leader of Rose Star and has sent down this disaster."
Meng Lu used up his last bit of strength to angrily scold them, "Superstition, this is all superstition."
He then fainted on the ground, and the others soon after also collapsed.
The group fainted.
