Chapter 158 Relaxed Expression
Looking at the corpse being dragged out, Chi Wenyan's face was gloomy.
The assistant walked over to check the condition of the body and stood up.
"Boss, this man has been dead for about an hour."
The time of death was almost the same as the time when Ji Wan and others left as mentioned by the guard in the base just now, which showed that this person was the one who took Ji Wan out of the base.
Even after the deceased's identity was confirmed, Chi Wenyan's worries did not diminish at all.
Ji Wan and others are not familiar with the surrounding environment. Where will they run to?
Seeing Chi Wenyan remained silent, the assistant stood silently behind him.
Some people were searching near the bushes.
"Boss, there are footprints here."
Another voice came.
Chi Wenyan strode over.
Looking at the messy footprints, Chi Wenyan frowned.
The footprints were not big, and it was obvious that they were women's, and there were also some high-heeled shoe prints among them.
Looking at the direction of the footprints, Chi Wenyan looked at the mountains not far away.
It seems that Ji Wan and others have gone into the mountains.
Looking up at the sky, it was already late.
If Ji Wan really went into the mountains, the search area would be very large.
If it gets dark, there will be many unpredictable dangers.
A hint of anxiety appeared between Chi Wenyan's brows.
He pointed to the footprints on the ground and said to everyone, "Follow the footprints and search."
"Yes, as you command."
The burly man responded.
They followed the footprints up the mountain.
Fortunately, Ji Wan and the others had not been away for long, so their feet were clear.
Seeing that they were getting further and further away, Chi Wenyan frowned so much that he could pinch a fly to death.
On the other side, Ji Wan led a group of people up the mountain.
She knew there were dangers in the mountains, but she also knew that once she entered the mountains, it would be difficult for those people to find them.
Although these women had a poor social status, they were supported by the rich for a period of time and had no worries about food and clothing, which also made their bodies a little more delicate.
They had not walked far when they began to complain of leg and foot pain.
Although they grumbled a lot, no one would fall behind the team.
They knew what would happen if they returned.
The dense forest gave everyone a gloomy feeling.
As they walked longer, the women began to feel exhausted.
"Let's stop and rest."
Ji Wan looked around and spoke.
As soon as she finished speaking, several women sat down on the ground. At this time, they didn't care about their image anymore. They just felt that their feet were sore and their legs were swollen.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Ji Wan couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"We can't stay here for long. Why don't I go to the front and see if there's any place suitable for us to hide first?"
"Then be careful."
"How about I go with you?"
At this time, everyone had already regarded Ji Wan as the backbone.
After listening to her words, some people agreed and some made suggestions.
Then three women left with Ji Wan.
They were afraid of taking the wrong path, so they left marks along the way.
After walking for a while, we saw a cave in the distance.
This made Ji Wan's face show a hint of joy.
The four people walked over and saw that the cave was spacious and dry.
I always feel like God is helping me.
A few people turned back and brought the others to this cave.
On the way here, Ji Wan and others also picked up some dry firewood.
This is for emergencies.
When they arrived at the cave, these people sat on the ground in a completely ungraceful manner.
These delicate young ladies walked such a long way, and some of them were wearing high heels.
Everyone looked tired.
"You two rest first. I'll stay at the cave entrance to keep watch. Whoever's rested can come take my place."
Ji Wan suggested.
"Miss Ji, why don't you take a rest first."
"Yes, I'm not too tired yet. I'll rest later."
These people were able to escape from the base thanks to Ji Wan.
They were somewhat grateful to Ji Wan, but some of them disagreed with his proposal.
"It's okay, I can still hold on, you guys take a rest first."
Ji Wan shook his head and refused.
She was not very confident about these people.
From the moment he woke up from the coma until now, Ji Wan's heartstrings have been tense.
She felt that it was better to take control of her own destiny.
Seeing Ji Wan's refusal, everyone looked at each other and found a place to rest.
Soon everyone fell asleep.
The cave is not very hidden, and half of the entrance is blocked by weeds.
Ji Wan sat there, looking at the woods outside.
She wondered in her heart whether Chi Wenyan already knew that she was missing?
I don’t know when Chi Wenyan will be able to find her.
It was getting darker and darker, and the mountain was getting steeper as we went up.
Chi Wenyan was even more worried about Ji Wan's situation.
Later, the traces of Ji Wan and others were a bit messy, so Chi Wenyan asked his men to disperse and look for them.
"Boss, there is a cave ahead."
Just when Chi Wenyan was thinking about Ji Wan and wondering where the man could escape to in this vast mountain, someone suddenly reported to him.
Everyone dispersed, and Chi Wenyan's men hurried back to report after seeing the cave.
Hearing this, Chi Wenyan's expression froze, "Let's go and take a look."
Ji Wan sat at the entrance of the cave. She looked tired, but still alert.
Hearing footsteps, the vigilant Ji Wan immediately realized that someone was approaching.
He quickly squatted down, hid in the bushes at the entrance of the cave, and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
Leading the group were several burly men.
Ji Wan held the dagger tightly in his hand.
I wondered how these people caught up with me so quickly.
Ji Wan pursed his lips, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
I've even made up my mind to die with them.
Suddenly, she saw a figure following those burly men, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Ji Wan threw away the dagger in his hand and stood up straight.
The dagger made a sound when it fell on the stone. Chi Wenyan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman standing there with a nervous expression.
In an instant, Chi Wenyan's heart calmed down, and he took big strides and ran towards Ji Wan.
It was not until the two people hugged each other and smelled the faint fragrance emanating from each other that they felt the reality.
"Ji Wan, I finally found you."
"Chi Wenyan, I knew you would come."
The two people said in unison.
After seeing Chi Wenyan, Ji Wan's tense nerves completely relaxed.
Her body was already overloaded from the entire escape, and coupled with her completely relaxed expression, Ji Wan felt a black screen before her eyes, and passed out.
Chi Wenyan was looking at Ji Wan with excitement on his face, when he saw her eyes close and her body go limp, which frightened him so much that his heart almost jumped out.
He grabbed Ji Wan in one go, his face full of tension.
"Ji Wan, Wan Wan."
Seeing that there was no response, Chi Wenyan bent down, picked up the person, and ran down the mountain with big strides.
Seeing this, the assistant did not follow, but instead asked a few people to follow Chi Wenyan down the mountain.
He dealt with the other women in the cave and the base's affairs.
