Qian Xiao thought for a moment and raised her hand: "Um, can I go in and help look for things? I'm pretty good at finding things."
Qian Sanbao nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, my eldest niece is really good at finding things. She can find all the food my mother hides without fail."
Captain Wu... Is this the same thing? But it's not impossible. What if this young comrade is exceptionally lucky and finds something? He really doesn't want to let these damn foreigners off easily.
"Alright, come in and take a look. But if you find anything, don't act on it directly. Tell us so we can come. It wouldn't be good if we encountered any danger."
Qian Xiao agreed very readily. She was afraid that those might be some kind of poison. If these people could find nothing, she wouldn't have liked to join in the fun.
"Third Uncle, you shouldn't come in. You should stay outside and keep watch over these five people." In case it really is poison or bacteria, we don't want Third Uncle to get infected.
Qian Sanbao didn't really want to join in the fun. In fact, he didn't even want his own niece to go, but since she had already said so, he couldn't very well stop her.
"Okay, don't worry, Uncle will keep a close eye on these guys." His eldest niece had finally managed to catch them, so he couldn't let them escape again.
Qian Xiao thought about it and was still not at ease, so he went over to take a look at the five people. These people were very likely mercenaries. What if they managed to break free of the ropes and hurt his third uncle?
Oh dear, they're all awake and quite quiet, but seeing the signs of struggle on the ropes tied behind their backs, it's quite possible that these people who live on the edge could escape. I just grabbed one of them and slashed him on the neck.
Captain Wu tried to stop him but didn't have time: "Comrade Xiao Qian."
Oh right, it's already been handed over to them. She should have informed them beforehand: "Well, I thought they might struggle free from the ropes, so I thought I'd knock them unconscious first to prevent them from escaping."
Captain Wu also came over and glanced at the spot Qian Xiao was pointing to. Sure enough, the ropes binding the people seemed to have loosened a bit, and it was quite possible that these people could break free. He quickly waved to his men to come over and re-tie the people.
He also picked two skilled men to stay and watch over the five people. They were deep in the mountains, and if they ran away, there would be nowhere to find them.
Qian Xiao kindly reminded him, "These five people are all very capable, so be sure to keep a close eye on them."
Anyway, these five people are the five most powerful people Qian Xiao has ever met, and they seem even more powerful than his own great-grandfather.
"Thank you for the reminder, Comrade Xiao Qian. Now let's go in and search again to see if there's anything we missed."
Qian Xiao followed the group into the cave. The cave was brightly lit by torches. She pretended to be banging and tapping around. Don't think she didn't see that Captain Wu was watching her the whole time, as if she were some kind of bad guy.
If it weren't for her patriotic heart, she would have quit right now.
After knocking on all the surrounding mountain walls, Qian Xiao increased the weight of his steps, stepping slowly on the ground inside the cave. The people on the mission shook their heads, thinking, "Is this kid just here to make us laugh?"
Soon no one paid attention to Qian Xiao anymore, except for the captain, of course. Suddenly, Captain Wu caught a glimpse of a child stomping around in one spot, with his ear turned up as if he was listening to something. He walked straight over to Qian Xiao.
Qian Xiao waved to him, "You're here just in time. Captain Wu, why don't you give it a try? I feel like this area is hollow, and the sound doesn't seem right."
Captain Wu's eyes lit up when he heard this. Could it be that this little girl really found it? Isn't she just too lucky?
Qian Xiao didn't care what was wrong with Captain Wu's gaze. If he suspected her, he could investigate her. She was a native of Qianjiatun and wasn't afraid of being suspected at all.
Captain Wu called over a man skilled in reconnaissance and gestured for him to test the area. The man, holding tools, began tapping and tinkering at the spot, and after a while, nodded to Captain Wu.
"Come on, everyone, start digging."
Qian Xiao watched them start digging and immediately opened her mouth, saying, "Then I'm going out," showing absolutely no interest in what was underneath.
Captain Wu was quite satisfied with Qian Xiao's perceptiveness: "Alright, then I'll trouble you to wait outside."
After laughing, Qian took a good look at where he was standing: "Third Uncle, I'll wander around and find some meat to eat."
"Let's go together, Uncle. We won't go far, just wander around the neighborhood."
“Okay, Uncle, come with me.”
The uncle and nephew should just act as guides; it's best not to get too involved in the rest.
By the time the uncle and nephew had finished eating the oily, bland rabbit, Captain Wu and his team had also finished their work. However, Captain Wu's already serious face looked even colder when he came out, as if he had encountered his father's killer.
I reckon there's definitely nothing good in there, and it looks pretty dangerous, otherwise Captain Wu's face would be even uglier after they found the stuff.
"Are those five people awake or not?"
The young man guarding the five men nodded: "He just woke up a little while ago."
"Pack your things and hurry down the mountain."
Qian Sanbao and Qian Xiao both looked up at the sun in the sky. The sun was about to set. Were they crazy to set the sun at this hour? But they were just leading the way, so they couldn't say anything. Anyway, these guys all had guns, so they probably wouldn't have much of a problem if they encountered any large wild animals.
"Third Uncle, did you have a smooth journey here?"
Qian Sanbao nodded: "It went very smoothly. I was wondering how we could not find anything in such a deep place."
Qian Xiao was now even more relieved. The person who led the way was indeed very familiar with this forest, and they should have no problem returning along the same route.
Qian Xiao carried his small half-basket of pears on his back and walked at the front. He was full of energy after eating and drinking his fill. He was also glad that the weather was cool, otherwise his small half-basket of pears would have rotted.
It took them two days to enter the mountains, but only a day and a half to get to their back mountain, just outside the deep mountain range.
Qian Xiao pointed to two pear trees, one with a few pears hanging on it and the other with more: "That day, I was swinging on this pear tree, letting the pears fall so I could pick them up, and that's when I saw these people."
As he spoke, he pointed to the five people behind him who were already in a sorry state. The key point was that no one had given them food for the past two days. What a pipe dream! You come to our country to cause trouble, and we still provide you with food and drink?
