When the light screen appeared in front of him, Xu Jianguo discovered that Xu Yan and Xu Li seemed to be in an underground cave, and some stalactites and stalagmites could be seen around them.
Xu Jianguo ordered the two men to stop and report the current situation to him.
A moment later, Xu Jianguo learned about their current situation. Xu Yan and Xu Li were indeed in an underground cave. They found the entrance five meters underwater in Peacock Lake. They swam in the water for a long time before reaching their current location.
However, the cave was very narrow, so the two of them moved forward very slowly. However, according to the map shared by Xu Jianguo, they were getting closer and closer to Jiang Ende's red coordinates.
For some reason, Xu Jianguo always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart. He gave new instructions to the two of them, asking them to slow down, try not to make any noise, and contact him immediately if they found any traces.
Xu Jianguo waited in the car for nearly an hour before Wen Sitian led the two little girls out of the bathhouse.
He got out of the car and took the washbasin from Wen Sitian's hand. Taking the opportunity of lifting the canvas tent, Xu Jianguo put the things into the space, and then asked the three to get in the car.
Xu Jianguo drove to a state-owned restaurant and took the three women in.
Considering that the two children were still too young, Xu Jianguo ordered two non-spicy dishes: home-cooked tofu and steamed pork with rice flour. He then ordered boiled beef and spicy chicken for Wen Sitian, and also ordered a large bowl of soup and a pound of rice.
After they sat down, Xu Jianguo began to look at the two little girls carefully. After taking a bath, Da Ya and Er Ya looked much more normal. Except for their thin bodies and sallow complexions, they were no different from ordinary children.
Both children are not ugly. Daya looks introverted and quiet, while Erya looks quirky. The two sisters have complementary personalities, but they may not be able to adapt to this unfamiliar environment and seem a little uneasy.
In order to make them relax, Xu Jianguo took the initiative to ask, "Erya, when did your sister stop talking?"
Erya shook her head and said, "I don't know either. When I was little, my sister couldn't speak."
Xu Jianguo thought for a moment, then looked at Daya and asked, "Daya, could you speak when you were little?"
Daya did not answer directly, but looked at her sister nervously, then looked at Wen Sitian, and after a while she slowly nodded.
"Stretch out your hand, I'll take your pulse and see if I can cure you!" said Xu Jianguo.
Daya bit her lip, put her hands on the table, and looked at Xu Jianguo with her big eyes, revealing an expectant look.
Xu Jianguo smiled at her, signaling her not to worry, then reached out and placed his hand on Daya's wrist.
After a moment, he asked Daya to stretch out her other hand, and after carefully examining it, he nodded to indicate that it was okay.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Jianguo said, "Daya, you can't speak because your vocal cords were damaged during your previous illness. Plus, you haven't spoken for so many years, so you seem to have forgotten how to speak. I'll make some Chinese medicine for you later. After you drink it, you should be able to speak normally after a while."
After hearing what Xu Jianguo said, Daya was stunned for a moment, and then an excited expression appeared on her face. A little girl of seven or eight years old knew that she could still speak, and her eyes immediately became red.
"Don't be excited, you will be fine!" Xu Jianguo comforted.
"Yes, you have to trust your brother. He is a very good doctor." Wen Sitian also advised.
Daya thought about it, and after a moment, nodded vigorously. The heart that had been frozen since the death of her parents seemed to be gradually melting, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.
After they finished their meal, it was already past three in the afternoon. Wen Sitian took Daya and Erya to the jeep, closed the door, and said to Xu Jianguo, "Jianguo, what are we going to do tonight? Should we take them back to the space?"
Xu Jianguo nodded and said with a smile: "Take them back. We can't let them live outside by themselves!"
"What if they tell others about the space?" Wen Sitian asked worriedly.
"It's okay, don't worry..." Xu Jianguo told Wen Sitian his plan.
Wen Sitian lowered her head and thought for a moment before she spoke: "Jianguo, don't you think we were too impulsive? We didn't even think about what to do in the future before we took these two girls in."
"Don't think too much about it. Just think of it as finding two playmates for Funiu. Although she has you as her sister-in-law to accompany her, she will still feel a little lonely after all." Xu Jianguo said.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you. But I hope Daya and Erya won't let us down!" Wen Sitian sighed and said.
"Well, now that we have time, you and Du Yu can teach them more. Children's thoughts are not that complicated. They are like a blank piece of paper. If you draw beautiful things on the blank piece of paper, the child will become a warm person in the future. But if you draw blood and violence on the blank piece of paper, the child will become a cold-blooded person, or even a person with a dark character in his heart. In short, what the child will be like in the future depends entirely on how adults educate and guide them, so as long as we teach them well, we don't have to worry." Xu Jianguo said patiently.
"You make sense, I understand!" Wen Sitian said, looking at Xu Jianguo with eyes full of admiration.
After the two got in the car, Xu Jianguo drove towards the suburbs outside Jiazhou City and finally parked the car in a forest by the river.
Daya and Erya didn't know why Xu Jianguo drove the car to such a remote place, and they suddenly became a little nervous.
After the four of them got off the car, Wen Sitian also sensed the two children's uneasiness, so she comforted them, "Don't be nervous, your brother is not a bad person. Let him explain it to you in person later."
Daya and Erya nodded, and the tension in their hearts eased a lot.
Xu Jianguo came in front of the two girls, squatted down and said, "Da Ya, Er Ya, remember, since you two call me brother, I won't let you be bullied again. Are you willing to believe me?"
The two girls nodded without hesitation, and the eldest girl even tugged at the second girl's clothes, urging her to speak.
"Brother, we are willing to believe you, because apart from mom and dad, you and sweet sister are the best people in the world to us." Erya stared at Xu Jianguo with big eyes and said crisply.
