Chapter 140: Living Treasure
"Thank you for taking care of me tonight."
Yu Wan waved her hand and said, "We are all teammates, and we should help each other."
However, Yuan Ji no longer took other people's care for granted as he did in the past.
In the wilderness, his illness would be a burden to her.
I could have ignored him, but I still insisted on keeping watch and checking his temperature.
Without her careful care, he might not have been able to survive.
Unless Yuan Ji has a heart made of iron, he will definitely be moved.
He said slowly and firmly, "Thank you."
Yu Wan couldn't see Yuan Ji's psychological changes, she just thought he was being polite, "Let's go find a way now, the people above must be very worried."
Yuan Ji said, "Now that things have come to this, there is no need to rush. If they can't find us, they will definitely try to find rescuers. You have been on guard all night, so you should take a rest first. I can also prepare some herbs by the way, so it won't waste time."
Yu Wan thought about it and felt that it made sense. Keeping vigil was no joke. It was really tiring, so she just lay down.
Yuan Ji didn't leave, and Yu Wan thought he was going to follow her example and keep watch. "It's daytime now, there's no need to keep watch. Go and get busy."
Yuan Ji paused for a moment before saying, "The wound on your back..."
Yu Wan understood that he was going to apply medicine to her, and she didn't mind, "Then apply the medicine to me."
After saying that, she lay down. Because she was too tired, she didn't even have time to lift her clothes and soon fell asleep.
Yuan Ji, who had come back with the medicine, was stunned for a moment, then he calmly walked over, squatted, lifted her clothes, and applied the medicine.
After applying the medicine, Yuan Ji carefully put her clothes down and went to prepare the herbs, looking back from time to time.
When it was almost noon, the sun was warm and Yu Wan woke up from a good sleep, feeling much more energetic.
"How are you doing here?"
"I cooked some, that's enough."
"Great, let's find a way."
This time Yuan Ji didn't refuse, "Okay."
The two men began to look for a way to go up again. Perhaps because of the good light during the day, this time they quickly found a way to go up.
"We need to make some marks along the way. After all, there are so many herbs down there, and maybe they will come back."
Yuan Ji agreed with Yu Wan's point of view, and the two of them made marks as they walked.
After walking for about half an hour, I heard a call.
"Am I hallucinating?" Yu Wan asked instinctively.
Yuan Ji shook his head, "It's not an illusion, I heard it too."
Yu Wan's eyes lit up instantly, "Great, we found us!"
Sure enough, they soon met up with Professor Zhang and his team.
Professor Zhang was really scared to death. Before he found the two people, he was afraid that something had happened to them. But after searching for a long time last night, due to the gloomy sky, he couldn't find any way to go down.
The place where they fell was very unique. There was a cliff over there, and no one noticed it because of the thick vegetation.
They originally planned to search along the place where they fell, but before they could climb up, it collapsed a little more. They didn't dare to move, for fear that the people who fell down were not dead, but were instead crushed to death by the rolling rocks.
This road was blocked, so we had to look for another one, but it was getting dark, so we had to wait until the next day.
In addition, Professor Zhang also asked people to go down the mountain to contact professional rescue personnel, hoping that someone would come to help at dawn, otherwise it would be difficult to find anyone late at night.
Fortunately, their hard work paid off and they finally found the person.
"How are you guys? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"It's just a minor injury, but we found a lot of medicinal herbs, which can be considered a blessing in disguise." Yu Wan said happily, "Shall we go over and take a look?"
Yuan Ji said, "You have a wound on your back, you'd better go back to the village to rest. I still remember the way, you can just stay here with me."
Yu Wan said without thinking, "You are sick too."
Yuan Ji, "I'm fine now, you go back first."
"Okay." Yu Wan didn't argue anymore. Since the herbs had been found, there was no need for her to stay, so she followed them back to the village.
The medical team had already arrived and examined Yu Wan again. Apart from the injury on her back, she had no other problems. Moreover, the injury on her back was not a serious problem because it was treated in time.
The key is to get enough rest.
Yu Wan was very obedient and had a good sleep after returning home.
I was really exhausted after staying up all night, and we were out in the wilderness, so I was tense.
She slept until the evening, and when she woke up she found out that Yuan Ji and the others had all returned, especially Professor Zhang, whose face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Although the journey was full of hardships, we finally completed the mission.
Professor Zhang was really grateful to Yu Wan, but Yu Wan just waved her hand. Her role was to lead the team into the mountain, and the rest depended on everyone's efforts. It was not her credit alone.
After expressing his gratitude, Professor Zhang went to look at the medicinal herbs. This time he brought back a lot of fresh herbs. We will have to wait until we get back to know their specific effects.
Yuan Ji looked at Yu Wan quietly, "Are you feeling better?"
Yu Wan was happy, "I should be the one asking you, are you well now?"
Yuan Ji nodded.
Yu Wan asked again, "Can we go back tomorrow, or do we have to travel tonight?"
After all, they have a car and can leave anytime they want.
Yuan Ji said, "I'm afraid we have to stay here for a few more days, because some herbs need us to preserve them quickly, and the process is a bit cumbersome and not convenient for traveling."
Yu Wan nodded, "It's okay, then stay. I'll just talk to the village chief."
Yuan Ji wanted to say something when Yu Wan's cell phone rang. She saw it was her second brother calling.
She made a gesture to Yuan Ji as if she was going to answer the phone and walked away.
In fact, Yu Wan had already told her family from the beginning that her signal was poor in the mountains, and she would contact them if anything happened, so they didn't need to worry.
On the first night she arrived, she also reported her safety to her family on WeChat, and the next day she went into the mountains and has been there ever since.
As soon as Yu Wan answered the phone, her second brother's excited voice came over, "Little sister, you finally answered the phone. I called you several times just now, but you didn't answer. I almost wanted to go look for you!"
Just as the second brother finished speaking, the eldest brother's voice came from the other end of the line, "I told you not to call and disturb your sister, but you called behind my back again!"
"It's been several days. I can't bear it until today and it's already the limit. Why can't I call? Besides, you called several times behind my back, but no one answered. Do you think I don't know? Now that my sister answered my call, you're jealous of me!"
"Brother, is the external speaker on?" Yu Wan asked quickly, fearing that if it was any later the two brothers would start quarreling again for no apparent reason.
"It's driving, it's driving. What does my sister want to tell me?" Yu Su couldn't wait to turn on the external speaker, just in time to make the eldest brother envious of him.
After confirming that the external speaker was on, she said, "I've been a little busy these past two days and haven't been able to contact my family. I'm sorry to have made my two brothers worried."
Yu Su felt distressed, "My sister is suffering, but my second brother is not suffering in the ward. He is just too worried about my sister, so he has no appetite. My eldest brother is much better than me. He enjoys eating and sleeps as soon as he touches the bed. I envy him."
Yu Wan, "..."
