Lu Yu led everyone into the cave quietly, and at the same time signaled the soldiers behind him to remain vigilant and not take it lightly.
After entering the cave, they were surprised to find more than a dozen children lying on the ground, including nine boys and four little girls.
After careful observation, they discovered that the teacher's grandson was also among them.
The children lay there motionless, seemingly unconscious. The soldiers rushed forward to test their breathing and confirmed that they were only in a coma.
In addition, the room was filled with large amounts of food and precious jewelry, which made people wonder where these items came from.
Despite successfully finding the missing children, Lu Yu and his soldiers did not feel any joy, but instead felt more depressed because they realized that this was likely a den of human traffickers, and the torture and harm the children had suffered was heartbreaking.
Lu Yu decisively issued an order:
"Li Xiangdong, take a group of people and send the children back to the camp first, and notify Commander Li and his wife. I'll leave a few brothers here to continue searching for clues. Once you've taken care of the children's affairs, please return quickly to support us."
After saying that, he took several soldiers to continue investigating this mysterious place, determined to uncover the truth hidden behind it.
"yes!"
Li Xiangdong and several soldiers first wet towels with water from the kettle to wake up the four girls. Then, each of them picked up two children and led the four girls back to the camp quickly along the original route.
At this time, Commander Li and his wife were anxiously waiting for news in the camp. When they saw the soldiers returning with the child, they burst into tears of joy and hugged the child tightly.
"Thank you, thank you for saving my grandson!" Commander Li said to Lu Yu with tears of gratitude.
"You're welcome, this is what we should do." Li Xiangdong replied solemnly, and then quickly ran towards the cave.
After Li Xiangdong left, Lu Yu led the remaining three people to continue exploring the cave. He knew that although the children were safe, they still had a tough battle to fight.
The disappearance of the child this time is just the tip of the iceberg. The next task is more difficult and more dangerous than finding the child. In the future, there are more challenges and enemies waiting for them.
"We will definitely become stronger! Protect this land and its people!" Lu Yu swore secretly in his heart.
Let’s not talk about how Lu Yu completed the next task, let’s talk about Qin Wan. Because Lu Yu went on a mission overnight after treating everyone to a meal, she slept until noon.
Last night she used mental control forcefully and overdrew her supernatural powers. If she had not entered the space in time and drank the spiritual spring, she would have fallen seriously ill.
She got up from the space. After getting up, Qin Wan heard her stomach rumbling, so she went to the kitchen. She found eggs in the kitchen and decided to fry some eggs with soy sauce.
She first beat the eggs, prepared the sauce, added soy sauce, vinegar and a little sugar, then started to heat the oil in a pan. After frying the eggs, she poured in the prepared sauce, stir-fried them evenly and served.
She put the fried eggs on a white porcelain plate, fried two pancakes, and sat down at the dining table to eat.
At this moment, she heard a knock on the door.
"Is there someone else who wants to come and have a free meal?" Qin Wan thought, and then went to the door and opened it.
This time it was a little girl who knocked on the door.
The little girl had shiny black hair that fell on her shoulders like a waterfall. Her eyes were big and bright, like two sparkling gems, and her long eyelashes were slightly curled like a fan.
Her skin was white, pure as snow, with a faint blush on her cheeks, as lovely as a ripe apple. Her lips were rosy, as tempting as cherries, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned with a hint of sweet smile.
The little girl was undoubtedly beautiful, but what caught Qin Wan's attention was not her appearance, but the fact that she was tightly holding a plastic bucket filled with all kinds of cookies. When the little girl saw Qin Wan opening the door, a smile immediately appeared on her face. She blinked her bright eyes and asked softly:
"Auntie, can I trade these cookies for your eggs and pancakes?"
Qin Wan looked at the cute little girl in front of him and did not rush to give her an answer. Instead, he curiously asked the little girl's name.
The little girl took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and answered seriously in her childish voice:
"My name is Zhou Ya, and I'm your neighbor across the street. My mom isn't home, but I'm so hungry. I really want pancakes and eggs. Can you give me your pancakes and eggs in exchange?"
There was a hint of shyness in Zhou Ya's voice, but more of it was a desire for delicious food. Her little eyes were full of anticipation, which made people feel pity and love for her.
Qin Wan raised her head and her eyes fell on the biscuit jar in Wen Ya's hand. She smiled slightly, and that smile was warm and kind, as if it could dispel all the coldness and loneliness.
"Your cookies look really good, little girl. But I can't trade with you."
Qin Wan looked at Zhou Ya's cute appearance and felt a surge of joy in her heart. She couldn't help but tease her. She thought she should have known who this little girl was.
As early as the first day of moving in, Lu Yu gave scientific knowledge to the neighbors around him.
Her next-door neighbor is Lu Yu’s partner, whose surname is Wang, Wang Zhiqiang. His wife is Zhou Ju, a doctor in a military hospital.
The couple had a daughter, and if he guessed correctly, it was the little girl in front of him named Zhou Ya.
Her neighbor on the left was the battalion commander of the first battalion of the second regiment. His wife was from the countryside and they had two girls and a boy.
Her neighbor to the right lived in the town of Birmingham, the battalion commander of the Second Battalion of the Second Regiment. His wife was from the city and was a teacher at a military primary school. They didn't have any children yet.
