"I have something else to do." Zhan Yihan walked around Song Yiren and headed forward.
Song Yiren's eyes flashed with resentment, and she chased after him and said, "Brother Zhan, are you going to look for Jin Yue? I'll go with you. She hasn't come back yet so late, and I'm so worried!" There was no need to guess that Brother Zhan was definitely going to look for Jin Yue. What was so good about Jin Yue? Why was he so worried about her?
Zhan Yihan frowned slightly and said, "I can go alone." He didn't want to bring a burden with him.
"I know where Jin Yue is picking herbs. It will be quicker if I take you there," Song Yiren said. She believed that if Brother Zhan spent more time with her, he would definitely know her good qualities.
Zhan Yihan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go." It was getting dark soon, and he would feel at ease if he could find Jin Yue sooner.
"Yeah!" Song Yiren smiled happily and quickly caught up with Zhan Yihan. It was great! Finally, I could be alone with Brother Zhan.
Su Jinyue woke up in a daze, looked around, and found herself hanging on a tree growing on the cliff wall. Below her was the dark and bottomless cliff. She was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, "Tree, please don't break, my life depends on you." How could she be so unlucky? First she was chased by a wild boar, and now her life was hanging by a thread.
She gathered her composure and looked up. It was now completely dark, with only the faint glow of the moon allowing her to vaguely see the cliff above. The tree wasn't far from the cliff, only about four or five meters away, but at that height, she couldn't climb it. She didn't dare move, fearing the tree trunk beneath her would break. This wasn't like last time, just a small hillside. If she fell, she would be dead. She didn't believe she would be so lucky and reborn again.
Zhan Yihan walked very quickly, and the steep mountain path seemed like flat ground to him. As the sky darkened, he grew increasingly worried. The last time Jin Yue fell, she was picking herbs. Now he could only hope that Jin Yue was simply lost and not in any danger.
"Brother Zhan, wait for me." Song Yiren panted and trotted after Zhan Yihan. Brother Zhan's legs were at least half as long as hers. How could she possibly keep up with him? She was a girl after all, so why didn't he show her some mercy?
Zhan Yihan stopped and glanced at Song Yiren coldly, "Which direction are you going?" What a burden.
Song Yiren ran to Zhan Yihan's side, panting for a long time, looked to the left, then to the right, and pointed to the right and said, "Here." Aren't you anxious? I just want you to be unable to find it.
"You wait here, or you can go back first." Zhan Yihan said in a deep voice, and walked towards the right front. He couldn't move any faster with her. Besides, they were still on the outskirts of the forest, so there wouldn't be any danger.
A hint of anger flashed in Song Yiren's eyes. She gritted her teeth and quickly caught up with Zhan Yihan, "Brother Zhan, wait for me. I'm scared to go alone. I want to go with you." Su Jinyue is a treasure, but she is just a weed?
Seeing that Zhan Yihan had no intention of waiting for her, Song Yiren deliberately stumbled and fell to the ground, "Ouch!"
Zhan Yihan frowned, stopped, and looked at Song Yiren with a cold face, "What's wrong?" She was really a worry. If it weren't for Jin Yue and Dr. Xu, he wouldn't want to pay any attention to her at all.
"I think I twisted my foot. It hurts!" Song Yiren said with a face full of pain. If Brother Zhan carried her, her reputation would be ruined by him, and he would have to marry her even if he didn't want to.
"Then sit here and wait." Zhan Yihan said expressionlessly and continued to move forward.
Watching Zhan Yihan disappear in the mountains and forests, Song Yiren was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Zhan Yihan, you bastard!" He just left her here like that, isn't he afraid that she will be in danger?
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and tears couldn't help but fall down. "Zhan Yihan, so what if you are fast? You can't find Su Jinyue at all." She was referring to the opposite direction. Even if Zhan Yihan found Su Jinyue until tomorrow morning, he would not be able to find her.
Zhan Yihan observed his surroundings as he walked. At first, there were traces of human footsteps, but as he went deeper into the forest, apart from towering trees, dense undergrowth, and some animal footprints, there were no more traces of human footsteps. Jin Yue couldn't have gone this way.
After making a judgment in his mind, Zhan Yihan immediately changed direction and ran towards the front left.
After running for about ten minutes, Zhan Yihan's eyes suddenly lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He saw a mark on a tree in front of him. As soon as he saw this mark, he was sure it was left by Jin Yue.
The mark was a five-pointed star. He still remembered that the night before he went to join the army, when he said goodbye to Jin Yue, Jin Yue drew a five-pointed star on the palm of his hand.
Su Jinyue looked at the five-pointed star she had drawn on Zhan Yihan's palm and said with a sly smile, "Brother Yihan, you will be a member of the People's Liberation Army in the future. This five-pointed star is for you. I wish you will soon become an outstanding member of the People's Liberation Army."
Zhan Yihan looked at the five-pointed star in his hand and smiled faintly, "When I come back, I will bring you a real five-pointed star."
Reaching out and touching a five-pointed star in his pocket, Zhan Yihan quickened his pace and ran forward. "Jin Yue, wait for me. I will find you soon. You must be brave and don't be afraid."
Su Jinyue lay on the tree trunk, looking at the dark cliff below. She was cold, hungry and helpless.
"Xiao Yao, what do you think I should do?" She had already made sure the tree trunk she was lying on was thick enough to support her weight. But it was nighttime, and even if she had the strength to climb up, she didn't dare. If she missed a step, she would really be dead.
"We can only wait until daybreak." The little demon's tone revealed a hint of helplessness. If the master's eyes had been upgraded to the mind's eye, even if it was pitch black around him, the master would be able to see everything as clearly as in the daytime.
"I'm so hungry now!" Su Jinyue smiled bitterly as she listened to her rumbling stomach. It was a pity that all the snow frost fruits she had picked had fallen to the bottom of the cliff.
"Master, why don't you close your eyes and practice?" the little demon suggested. Besides helping the master practice, it had no other options.
Su Jinyue rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I don't have that idea." Her heart was not that big, and only with her eyes open could she feel safe.
Su Jinyue shrank back in fear as the mountain breeze blew. After this incident, she felt she was too weak. She wanted revenge, wanted to make her enemies suffer, but being weak wouldn't do. She had to become stronger. So, she had to find the herbs that contained spiritual energy, no matter how hard it was.
