Xia Anyan's reassurance worked, and the monkeys indeed quieted down considerably.
After saying this, Xia Anyan quickly shouted to the surroundings, "Found it, it's here."
The monkeys still trusted Xia Anyan.
Although they were afraid of the humans who approached, they still obediently gathered together.
Captain Gong saw the injured little monkey, and his eyes narrowed instantly when he saw its broken leg.
Those people are truly vicious; they could even bring themselves to harm a monkey like that.
Thinking of this, Captain Gong's expression grew even colder.
Not long after, the people Captain Gong had sent to support them arrived.
There were quite a few monkeys, but they were all very well-behaved. Under Xia Anyan's guidance, they followed them obediently. As for the injured little monkey, it was held in Zhang Junan's arms.
Don't ask why it wasn't Captain Gong carrying her; it's because Zhang Jun'an always stayed by Xia Anyan's side, and these monkeys only trusted Xia Anyan.
"Dad, should I carry him?" Xia Anyan saw Zhang Jun'an's dark face and wondered if he didn't like it.
But Zhang Junan shook his head: "No need, I can do it."
His face darkened, not because he didn't want to hug the monkey, but because seeing its injuries reminded him of some things from a few years ago.
Why can't we kill all those bad guys?
...
Because they had to take care of the monkeys, they walked relatively slowly, and it took them about half an hour to get back to their camp.
As soon as they returned, Grandpa Xia rushed over to them.
Seeing that his granddaughter was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned: "You little rascal, you really scared me to death just now. From now on, you're not allowed to run around by yourself anymore. You have to stay by our side, understand?"
Xia Anyan stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed: "Grandpa, I know, but I did a good deed this time, and I even saved so many little animals, look."
Xia Anyan made way for the old man to see what was behind her.
Grandpa Xia's attention was entirely focused on Xia Anyan, so he naturally didn't see Zhang Junan behind her, or the monkeys.
Now that he saw it, the old man's eyes widened instantly.
No, this...
"Hey granddaughter, where did you get all these monkeys from?"
The young soldier came back and told him that his granddaughter was alright, then he called everyone to leave without explaining what had happened.
Later, he discovered that the young soldiers had brought back a lot of bad guys, and some of them were injured. He then guessed that his granddaughter might have been taken away by those people.
But now that he's seen so many monkeys, he's a little confused.
What exactly happened?
"Grandpa, please sit down first, and I'll tell you slowly."
Xia Anyan once again told Grandpa Xia what she had said to Captain Gong. Grandpa Xia was furious when he heard this, regretting that he hadn't gone up and kicked those people earlier.
Zhang Junan had already settled the little monkey in and walked over to the grandfather and grandson with a dark expression.
Seeing the old man's expression, he snorted coldly: "Those bastards, they are definitely not ordinary hunters, they may even have ties to some country."
After he finished speaking, the old man immediately covered his mouth and glared at him fiercely.
"Are these things something you can just say carelessly?"
Even though there was no one else around, what if someone else overheard them saying these things?
“Grandpa, you don’t need to worry so much. Actually, I also suspect that those people may have connections with Sakura Country.”
Those people in Japan have been conducting human experiments all along. They even used Chinese people as test subjects before. Now they want to capture some monkeys, which may be a test of their bottom line.
Of course, it could also be from the United States or other countries.
To find out the specifics, we'll have to wait until the interrogation ends.
However, by then it probably wouldn't have anything to do with her anymore.
Just as the three of them were chatting, Captain Gong came over with a plate of sliced meat and a canteen of water in his military water bottle.
"Grandpa, Uncle Zhang, sister-in-law, please eat first. I'll bring you some more when the rabbit meat over there is ready."
Judging from the weight he was holding, it was quite a lot.
The pheasants and rabbits he and his men had just hunted were few in number, so it was clearly impossible to feed everyone.
"Captain Gong, this is enough for now, there's no need to go to so much trouble." Zhang Jun'an quickly waved his hand.
But Captain Gong smiled and said, "I just sent people to catch them again. Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone is well-fed and watered before we set off."
They worked hard just arresting those people, and they might have a tough battle to fight when they get back, so they need to eat and drink their fill before they go.
Since Captain Gong has already said so, Zhang Jun'an and the others naturally won't refuse.
After Captain Gong left, the three of them sat down to continue eating.
Xia Anyan had just swallowed a piece of chicken when the monkey that had taken her away earlier came up to her.
Xia Anyan recognized the little monkey at a glance.
The human and the monkey exchanged a glance, and Xia Anyan instantly understood its meaning.
"Do you want some too?"
Can monkeys eat meat?
This question kept echoing in Xia Anyan's mind.
Not only did she not know, but even Grandpa Xia and Zhang Jun'an didn't know. They had never experienced anything like it before.
"Sister-in-law, these are some wild fruits I found in the mountains. Why don't we give them to the monkeys?"
Upon seeing this scene, someone quickly ran over and took out a few fruits from their pocket.
The monkey's eyes lit up when it saw the fruit, but it didn't reach out to take it.
Xia Anyan smiled and handed a few fruits to the little monkey: "Take these quickly."
The little monkey hesitated, its eyes darting away, as if trying to confirm if it was true.
Xia Anyan felt a pang of sympathy after seeing this.
What has this little monkey been through? It's just a few fruits, why is it so scared?
She sighed and shoved the food directly into the little monkey's arms: "Quick, hold it, take it back and eat with them."
"Only when you're full will you have the chance to leave the car and go where you're supposed to go."
The little monkey couldn't understand what Xia Anyan was saying, but looking at her gentle expression, it knew that this human was a good person.
The little monkey, carrying the fruit, returned to the other monkeys and handed them the fruit one by one.
Not enough, so they broke it in half, one monkey for each monkey, so that neither could be missing.
Seeing the monkeys, the young soldiers' eyes reddened, and they all took out the fruit from their pockets and offered it to them.
