At the beginning, I was a little bit uncomfortable with Xiao Ding's sudden joining, especially when I thought about having someone following me in the future.
But as the two of us got along better and better, I began to feel more and more that it was a very successful thing for me to bring Xiao Ding out of Xuyoushen Village.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the next morning, just as it was getting light, Xiao Ding and I packed our small backpacks and left the village.
Seeing that he was about to leave the place where he grew up, Xiao Ding did feel a little sad, but he did not show it on the surface.
But things did not go particularly smoothly. Since the terrain around the village was too complicated, we soon ran into trouble.
Although Xiao Ding is a native of this village and has lived in this place for a long time, he is just a child who has never left his home since he was a child.
The two of us continued to grope forward like this, and as we walked further and further away, when we came to our senses, we found that we could no longer find the road we wanted to take.
The field in front of me was covered with dense grass, and these weeds made me feel even more sad, and I felt a little at a loss.
Even in the following few days, the two of us could only wander back and forth in a completely unfamiliar place every day, unable to find any exit.
The dry food we brought from the village at the beginning has gradually been eaten up, but fortunately there is always more or less food in the bushes at this season, so we will not starve.
But thinking that it was not a solution if they just kept going around in circles here, both of them became extremely anxious.
But there is a saying that goes, "There is always a way out." Just when the two of us were at a loss and didn't know what to do next, new hope appeared before me.
The grass that originally looked very desolate suddenly had a few more human traces, and it was these human traces that gave me confidence.
After walking two steps forward, I suddenly realized that there was a large group of people in front of me, and it seemed that there were quite a lot of them.
Thinking that I have no idea who the other person is, I was really afraid that Xiao Ding would be in danger if he followed me. So I said:
"Go hide in the bushes nearby for a while. Let me see who they are. If there's no danger, come out. If there are any, run away."
Xiao Ding naturally disagreed with such words, but at this moment I didn't give her any chance to explain herself and pushed her directly into the grass next to me.
I thought to myself, since I had already decided to let Xiao Ding follow me, then as long as I can ensure his safety, everything is inevitable.
Seeing that the group of people in front of me were getting farther and farther away from me, I took advantage of the cover of the bushes next to me and sneaked towards the group of people.
Before they even got close to each other, they heard several impatient voices: "How long will it take to walk through this crappy place? Look at us, we've already been walking for several days."
After looking in the direction of the sound, especially after seeing the equipment the other party was carrying, I couldn't help but be shocked in the bushes.
This group of people is not only large in number, but most importantly, the weapons and equipment they carry are really too cool, definitely not inferior to the weapons I have now.
Even among all these equipment, I seemed to vaguely see the shadow of a detector. This detector is a good thing. I haven't seen it for a long time.
After seeing this situation, I couldn't help but feel a little curious in my heart, wanting to know the origins of these people in front of me.
But after thinking about it for a while, I still feel that it is best for me not to act rashly now. The other party is well-equipped, but I don’t know whether they are good guys or bad guys.
Thinking that Xiao Ding was still waiting for me beside me at this moment, even though my heart was filled with immense curiosity, I still wanted to sneak back.
But just as I was about to retreat quietly, I suddenly seemed to step on a branch, and the branch made a clicking sound. After hearing the sound, the few people in front of me immediately turned their heads.
After seeing this situation, I couldn't help but think to myself that this time I would have to greet this group of people face to face no matter what.
I thought that instead of being caught by this group of people, I might as well go out and greet them first. Thinking of this, I stood up and said with a smile:
"I didn't realize you had someone here. I'm really sorry to bother you guys, but I definitely didn't mean to do that. I hope you can understand."
A large group of people couldn't help but be stunned when they saw me for the first time, but then one of them, a tall and strong man, immediately reacted, pointed a gun at me and said:
"Who are you? What are you doing sneaking around behind us? Did you hear something just now? Tell me the truth."
After seeing this situation, I really felt helpless in my heart. It seemed that I had no way to escape this time.
Just as I was thinking about how to get out of this situation, a man next to me came over and said with a smile:
"My name is Jack, and I'm an explorer here. I don't know what you're thinking that makes you hide behind us. Are you trying to spy on us?"
Looking at the gun pointed at me, I could only lie helplessly: "I came here for tourism, but my plane crashed, so I ended up here."
After hearing this, the man who called himself Jack looked at the man pointing the gun at me with disdain, and then shouted at him with some ill intentions:
"I'm just here for a trip, why are you so nervous? Someone who doesn't know would think you've done something bad. Put the gun down right now."
Seeing someone suddenly come out to rescue me, I felt a burst of joy in my heart. Maybe this group of people can really help me get out of this hellhole.
Thinking of this, I pretended to be pitiful and said, "I know you are all good people. If you want to leave this place, can you take me with you?"
The expression on his face was still smiling when he was speaking in this class, but after hearing this sentence, his expression changed in an instant, and then he shook his head and said:
"We won't be going back now. We can take you with us first. Maybe we can go back in a couple of days. I just don't know if you can wait until then."
