"What's the point of my life?"
She ran and cried, shouting, "I'd rather die! Nobody cares about me anyway, and I'll just be called an ingrate, waaaaah..."
She ran this way without realizing that it was the place where Lin Jingyu and the others were.
"Waaaaah..."
A faint sound of a woman crying could be heard.
Yang Shujue's face turned pale with fright.
With a trembling voice, she asked, "Jingyu, Shiyu, did you... did you hear crying?"
"Crying? What crying?"
Lin Jingyu was so focused on chopping wood that she didn't hear the crying at all.
Peng Shiyu's expression was conflicted. "It sounds like crying, but it doesn't quite sound like it..."
Then the sound of crying came again...
Ah~
Yang Shujue screamed in fright.
He rushed towards Peng Shiyu and hugged her tightly, exclaiming, "There's crying! There really is crying!"
"Jing, Sister Jingyu, I, I heard it too."
Peng Shiyu trembled with fear, her voice trembling with sobs, "How could there be crying on the mountain? It's too, too scary."
"Don't be afraid, what's there to be afraid of in broad daylight?"
This time, Lin Jingyu heard it too.
She stepped forward and gently patted the two terrified people. She craned her neck and peered into the surrounding woods, hoping to spot something.
As the crying grew louder, the two women were so frightened that they immediately hugged her.
Yang Shujue said in a trembling voice, "It's a woman, a woman is crying. Jingyu, who is crying on the mountain? It's terrifying."
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Lin Jingyu felt somewhat helpless, but she couldn't very well push the person away.
She noticed that Peng Shiyu seemed somewhat terrified, her whole body tense, clearly gripped by immense fear.
Yang Shujue also looked like she was about to cry.
"What are you afraid of? Look at me."
Lin Jingyu deliberately put on a stern face and tapped their foreheads in an annoyed tone: "Have you lost your nerve? You get scared like this from the slightest sound?"
“There really was crying.”
Yang Shujue still looked somewhat frightened and explained, "I definitely didn't mishear. Shiyu should have heard it too."
"Yes, there really is someone crying."
Peng Shiyu held her hand tightly, still unable to contain her fear, and nodded, saying, "I didn't mishear, it was a woman crying."
"Yes, it's a woman crying."
Yang Shujue calmed down and wasn't so scared anymore. "Strange, why would someone cry at this time? In broad daylight, it can't be some kind of demon or monster."
"Go to hell with your demons and monsters."
Lin Jingyu laughed in exasperation, "I don't know what's going on in your heads, the sound just now must have been..."
Before she could finish speaking, her gaze had already fallen in one direction.
And then I saw that familiar figure...
She walked over, wiping away her tears.
So he spoke again: "Look... the 'demons and monsters' are here."
The two women followed her gaze upon hearing the sound and saw the person approaching.
"Zhang Ailan~"
Yang Shujue lost her composure and shouted loudly.
She finally understood what the woman's crying had meant.
I never expected that she would scare me half to death.
A surge of anger welled up inside him, and he yelled at her, "Why did you come up the mountain crying like that? Aren't you afraid of scaring people to death?"
"Ah, you~"
Overwhelmed with grief, Zhang Ailan suddenly looked up and was startled by the unexpected sound.
She never expected there would be other people on the mountain.
And then tragedy struck.
She was so frightened while standing on the hillside that she lost her footing and fell down.
Under their watchful eyes, it rolled down in an instant.
"Damn it, we're doomed."
Lin Jingyu cursed.
He immediately leaped up and chased after Zhang Ailan in the direction she had rolled down.
"This, this has nothing to do with me."
Yang Shujue was almost crying. "I was just angry that she cried as she went up the mountain and scared us. I didn't mean to make her fall."
"Shujue, what should we do?"
Peng Shiyu had never encountered anything like this before.
I was so scared just now that I could hardly believe my eyes, and now I see people rolling down the hillside.
If it weren't for Lin Jingyu, who was distracted and chased down the mountain, she might have been so frightened that she lost her composure again.
"Let's hurry down the mountain and take a look."
Yang Shujue, having lived two lives, quickly calmed down despite her initial shock and fear.
He pulled Peng Shiyu down the mountain, saying, "Jingyu chased after them, so there definitely won't be any problems."
"Yes, Sister Jingyu will save her."
Peng Shiyu's gaze gradually hardened.
The fear in my heart gradually dissipated, and I regained almost all my energy.
Lin Jingyu caught up with him at top speed.
It was still too late to save them.
However, Zhang Ailan was lucky; she was stopped by a large pine tree after rolling down about three meters.
It was fortunate that they didn't tumble straight down the mountain.
"Comrade Zhang Ailan, how are you?"
Lin Jingyu quickly helped the person who was struggling to get up to their feet, asking, "Are you hurt anywhere?"
"I'm fine."
Zhang Ailan's expression showed slight pain, clearly indicating that she still had some abrasions on her body.
The mountain slopes were already uneven and covered with loose stones, so it would be strange if she didn't get injured after rolling down like that.
"Wait a moment, I'll find some herbs to apply to your wound."
Lin Jingyu helped her sit up, "Why did you come up the mountain at this time? The sun is almost setting."
