Chapter 77: Careful Thoughts



The people in the tent were also awakened by the intense gunfire. Without waiting for them to ask, Liu Wenliang said, "The gunfire is still some distance away from us. Don't worry, take this time to rest!" They were so tired that they turned over and went back to sleep. Zhang Yuan, who had also woken up, found that there was no response in Liang Yiyi's tent. He got up and sat next to Liu Wenliang, lowering his voice and asking, "Don't tell me Yiyi is still sleeping in the tent? Where did she go?"

Liu Wenliang was silent for a moment before he said, "She said she's going out for a while. If she doesn't come back tomorrow morning, we'll have to leave. I don't know where she went. You should go back to sleep."

"I can't sleep. Why didn't you stop Yi Yi from going out by herself? What if something happens? At least it would be safer if you followed her than letting her go out alone, right?" Zhang Yuan said with a little anger.

"Do you think Yi Yi will let me follow him? If it was in the past, it would be easy to say, but now Yi Yi is not someone we can persuade." Liu Wenliang said softly.

"But it's too dangerous for a girl to act alone. Aren't you worried at all?" Zhang Yuan asked back.

"Zhang Yuan, I know what you are thinking. You have always loved using your sister as an excuse to get close to Yi Yi since you were little. How can we who grew up together not see it? Yi Yi has been pretty and cute since she was little. Who doesn't like her? But Yi Yi has changed so much in recent months. Zhang Yuan, do you think Yi Yi can accept us based on the way we are now?" Liu Wenliang said with a little disappointment.

Zhang Yuan's eyes widened as he asked, "Are you going to fight me? Are we still brothers?"

"What do you mean by arguing with you? Do you even know how to talk? You can like me, but I can't. My old man and Grandpa Yiyi said they wanted Yiyi to be my wife!"

"Please, how old were you at that time? It was just a joke, okay? Why did you take it seriously?" Zhang Yuan said anxiously.

"A joke can come true. What am I doing exercising and studying so hard these days? Just to be closer to her so that I can have a chance to be with her." Liu Wenliang chuckled.

"Who doesn't study hard just to go to the same school as her? Since we have the same idea, let's compete fairly!" Zhang Yuan thought to himself, my sister is Yi Yi's best friend. With her helping me, I will definitely win Yi Yi's heart. Thinking of this, Liang Yi Yi's delicate little face could not help but appear in front of him. He really liked her more and more.

Fair competition? Oh, it wasn't that he was belittling himself, but Liang Yiyi probably wouldn't even give them a fair chance. This thought had been growing stronger recently, as he felt like Yiyi was different from before.

Seeing Liu Wenliang silent, Zhang Yuan thought he was dissatisfied with something. Just as he was about to speak, he heard footsteps coming from the woods ahead. Just as the two of them were about to grab their guns, they heard Liang Yiyi's voice: "It's me, don't be nervous."

Now the two of them finally put their minds at ease, "Yi Yi, what were you doing just now? We will be worried if you act alone. Next time you go out, call me with you!" Zhang Yuan said.

"What was that gunshot just now? It seemed like you were coming from that side." Liu Wenliang said.

Liang Yiyi put his backpack on the ground and poured out everything inside, "I'm going to rob." A pile of food fell to the ground.

Liu Wenliang saw that these things were obviously obtained from many people. Could it be that the gunshot just now was really related to Yi Yi?

"I'm too sleepy. I'm going to sleep first. We can talk tomorrow." Liang Yiyi yawned with his hand covering his mouth.

There were less than three hours left until dawn. When the two thought about how Yi Yi had been tired all day and hadn't had a rest until now, they couldn't help but feel distressed. They said in unison: "You should go to bed soon." After saying that, the two looked at each other and quickly packed up the things Liang Yi Yi had brought back.

Liang Yiyi walked into her tent. She wasn't exactly sleepy; in fact, because of her martial arts training, not sleeping for a few days didn't affect her much. It was just that when she came back just now, she happened to overhear the conversation between Liu Wenliang and Zhang Yuan. Apparently, having excellent hearing can be a problem. The thought gave Liang Yiyi a headache. Although her body was only seventeen, her mental age was already twenty-five. She treated her peers like children, never thinking of them that way. She simply considered them good friends. It seemed she would have to keep her distance from them from now on.

At the same time, Liu Wenliang was also wondering if Yi Yi had heard their conversation when he came back just now. He hadn't forgotten that when the two soldiers were so far away from them this morning, Yi Yi had reminded them to hide! He must not let Yi Yi know about his little thoughts, otherwise it would be so embarrassing!

At 5:00 in the morning, Liu Wenliang woke up a few people, packed up briefly, ate something, and then the seven-member team set off again.

According to Liang Yiyi's plan, they should walk more than 150 kilometers every day in the first few days, and the next two days will be relatively easier. What she has to do is to prepare enough food for them to ensure that they have enough physical strength every day to support such a large amount of exercise.

Along the way, Liang Yiyi's exceptional hearing and impeccable marksmanship helped them overcome numerous difficulties. Their greatest luck was finding a rather large cave not far from their destination. It was clean, with faint traces of human intervention. It looked like it might have been used by hunters to rest. There was also an iron pot nearby, large enough for three or four people to cook. Fat Zhu Er went to inspect it, and found that the pot had broken down, likely due to age, with a hole in the bottom. Although the pot was unusable, the group was delighted. Who would want to set up their own tent after a tiring day of walking? This cave truly saved them a lot of trouble!

After eating compressed biscuits for two days in a row, when it was time for dinner, everyone lost interest in eating this only food. Thinking of the delicious beggar's chicken she had eaten yesterday, Zhang Juan smacked her lips twice. She looked at the food in her hand and had even less appetite. She cursed herself in her heart for not knowing how to appreciate the blessings she had and even despising the food she had. She was so ungrateful.

Liang Yiyi had already seen through the expressions of the few people. She also wanted to change her taste, so she said to them, "Those who have the strength, go out and find some firewood. I'll go find some food. Be careful when you go out. I'll be back soon." When the few people heard what Yiyi said, they knew that she would never return empty-handed when she went to find food. Thinking that there would be delicious food soon, everyone was very excited and took action immediately. Some of them went out to find firewood, and the others stayed in the cave to rest.

Visibility was poor at night, but it did not affect Liang Yiyi much. She walked out of the sight of several people, held her breath and used her hearing to the best of her ability. The sound of birds flapping their wings when returning to their nests, the sound of snakes crawling on branches, the sound of grasshoppers jumping in the grass... These sounds were clearly transmitted to her brain and formed a picture in her mind. Finally, she found what she wanted. Three hundred meters to the left and in front of her, there was a lone little wild boar. Now she could have a good meal tonight, but before dealing with this little wild boar, she seemed to have to do something. She didn't want to be disturbed while eating.

d..q, wonderful!( = )
