Ten minutes later--
All arrangements for the mountain expedition have been completed.
The Miao people gathered at the Lusheng field in Quedong Village began their journey.
The rafts were made and carried to the riverbank.
Thousands of people acted together.
For every ten rafts completed, forty young men and twenty young women dressed in Miao costumes would carry twenty kilograms of supplies and run in two lines to the riverbank.
Once again, they boarded the raft, their expressions resolute as they went upstream, entered the canyon mouth, and headed towards the deep mountains.
The Han Chinese had lost count of how many Miao boys and girls had gone into the mountains, but it was getting dark and still not a single raft had appeared.
The women's hearts also clenched.
dusk.
Yun Kai and Lei Zhan, who helped unload the goods from the truck, were exhausted.
They wanted to rest for a while, but the Miao people continued to fight.
"You can't do these things, go and rest."
"Go and rest, we can all do these jobs."
The smiles of the Miao people seemed even more genuine and heartbreaking to Yun Kai and Lei Zhan at that moment, yet they felt a burning sensation on their faces.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan and Ning Jing, who came from the provincial capital, became increasingly alarmed.
because--
The unity of the Miao family, the boss's family, is terrifying.
Tens of thousands of people worked tirelessly to carve out a road into the mountains.
That was a meter or two of snow.
Women dressed in different Miao costumes cooked and prepared dishes at the largest Lusheng field, carrying them in small buckets into the mountains to feed the Miao people.
Work continues through the night!
If they get tired, they can take a break and the other Miao people can step up!
They take turns.
Relevant officials from the city government have also arrived!
The scene on the Miao people's side far exceeded the officials' expectations.
The mayor originally intended to send people to build a road into the deep mountains for the Miao people, but when he arrived at the scene, he found that the snow accumulation leading to the deep mountains was far more serious than he had imagined.
The crucial point is, there's something terrifying in the snow!
If you don't understand, going in is a death sentence.
It's late at night!
One after another, the Miao men and women entered the deep mountains by waterway, but still no one was seen coming out.
The Han people are unaware of the situation deep in the mountains of Miao territory, but the Miao people know it all too well.
If no one comes out now, it can only mean that the young men haven't delivered the supplies to their destination yet.
Amo has been waiting for news.
She was accompanied by guards.
My close friend Guan Yue also came.
By the campfire, Guan Yue saw A Mo rubbing her temples, her eyes still a little red. She said softly, "Go and rest for a while. You've been so busy."
"It's okay! I'll wait for his news."
As she spoke, Amo clutched her aching chest.
"MoMo, what's wrong? You look so pale!"
Amo waved her hand, and the guards beside her immediately stepped forward. When they noticed Amo's condition, they exclaimed anxiously, "Holy Maiden, you—did you sense that Brother Achen—"
Amo nodded.
"Don't make a fuss. Ah Chen's condition is very bad. He seems to be in a semi-comatose state."
Siwei Amei was also getting anxious.
Guan Yue was completely confused.
Because she didn't know how Amo could sense that her husband had fainted.
"Guan Yue, I can't spend the next couple of days with you. Let's talk about the fruit after I find A Chen, okay?"
"Oh, go ahead and do what you're doing, there's no rush."
"Okay! If you're tired, you can come to my house to rest. I've already told the people at the intersection."
Guan Yue nodded.
That night, the freezing rain grew heavier and continued unabated.
Amo only dozed off for a short while.
Because her feelings were so intense, Ah Chen's fate was unknown.
But in the deep mountains, new situations can arise at any time.
Peng-
Three o'clock in the morning.
About thirty kilometers northwest of Que Dong Village, the war drums that the Holy Maiden and her companions had been waiting for finally sounded.
Puff--
Ten minutes later, two more drumbeats came from different directions deep in the mountains.
Boom boom boom--
Half an hour later, several more war drums sounded.
Upon hearing the distinctive sound of the war drums, the people of Quedong Village were silent for a few seconds before bursting into joyful cheers.
Those Han Chinese who were still by the campfire heard the muffled sound of war drums and the cheers of the Miao people on the other side, and they hurriedly inquired about the situation.
In particular, the handsome young man who shouted the most excitedly today immediately ran to ask the Miao people who were still making rafts for information.
The Miao people said, "The supplies have arrived. Judging from the sound of the drums, they have been delivered to about sixty Miao villages."
Sixty Miao villages? That many?
"Less than half."
The Han man was astonished! "Were all these delivered by those young men and women?"
"right!"
Teacher Shen also rushed over to ask, "When will they be able to come out?"
"The earliest we'll have to wait is tomorrow afternoon! Because they still need to bring the injured Miao people out for treatment."
"How did you know there were injuries?"
"The sound of drums. You wouldn't understand even if I explained!"
Teacher Shen and the others didn't understand, but they were all wondering, could the children really bring the wounded out?
However---
After daybreak.
The Han people stared blankly at the Miao women who were waiting on the banks of the river at the entrance where they had gone upstream the day before.
It seems to be waiting for something.
The Miao women were all holding cotton quilts in their hands.
Time, passing by second by second --
On the other side of the riverbank, the Han men and women also looked expectantly towards the mouth of the canyon hundreds of meters away.
Saintess Amo also arrived with her guards and several jackals.
In the afternoon, just past one o'clock --
