Chapter 223 We Are Leaving the Mountain
223
Tang Yue frowned, and the corners of her lips curled up sarcastically, "Didn't you say yesterday that we were human traffickers? What? Aren't you afraid of being sold by us now?"
Xiao Mohe's face turned red, but he admitted that he was wrong yesterday.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong yesterday. Please forgive us. We really want to get out now."
Tang Yue didn't agree directly, "Didn't you come in by yourselves? Then you should be able to leave by yourselves, right?"
Xiao Moyu curled his lips, "When we came in, we didn't know where we came from. We walked further and further away, and then we didn't know how to turn, but finally we found that cave.
Now we can’t find the way back.”
By the time they finished speaking, they had already lowered their heads. At that time, they thought that they would never leave the mountains again, so it didn't matter to them where there was a way out.
But now, if the little girl in front of them doesn't take them out, it will be really difficult for them to get out of the mountains.
"Are you sure you want to go out?"
The three siblings nodded in unison. Tang Yue was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. "Oh, then you can follow me."
She had some ideas, but she had to see if they were suitable. First, let's look at their physical strength.
"Really, little sister, you promise?"
Xiao Moyan was very happy. She wanted to move forward to talk to Tang Yue, but when she saw the tiger and leopard, she didn't dare to move forward. Tang Yue sat on the leopard's back and nodded gently.
Xiao Moyan followed behind and asked, "Little sister, my name is Xiao Moyan, that is my eldest brother Xiao Mohe, and my second brother is Xiao Moyu, what is your name?"
"Tang Yue."
"Tang Yue, Xiao Yueyue, wow, what a nice name."
Listening to Xiao Moyan's chatter, Tang Yue could sense that their previous family must have been filled with love. Furthermore, the little girl must have been pampered growing up.
"Xiao Yueyue, you are so amazing."
"Um!"
"Xiao Yueyue, you are, well, so cute!"
Tang Yue looked down at her. Well, this feeling of looking down was great. Finally, she didn't have to crane her neck to look at people anymore.
"Xiao Yueyue, why don't you ask us why we went into the mountains?"
"Yan Yan!"
"younger sister!"
Xiao Mohe and Xiao Moyu hurriedly stopped Xiao Moyan from speaking.
Xiao Moyan pouted, then quieted down. The four of them walked very quickly, and the three siblings felt increasingly tired. However, Tang Yue showed no intention of stopping, so they could only grit their teeth and persevere.
Tang Yue realized that the battalion commander and his men were not far ahead, so she quickened her pace.
Chen Erniu was scouting nearby when he saw the four people. "Hey, Captain Xiao Tang, why did you bring them here? We're in a hurry to get on the road, and we don't have time to send them back."
Xiao Mohe and the others were a little embarrassed when they heard what Chen Erniu said, "Oh, they are not going back, they are leaving the mountain."
"Ah? Oh!"
"The battalion commander and the others are ahead?"
"Well, I've been walking for a while and I'm taking a break. I'm scouting around."
Tang Yue followed Chen Erniu forward. Xiao Moyu tugged at his brother's sleeve from behind, "Brother, did you hear that? That little sister is actually the company commander. Company commander, isn't that a position only for very capable people?"
Xiao Mohe was also shocked. Although no one in their family had served in the military, their father and uncles had often told them stories of battles in previous years, so they had some understanding of the army.
But he had never imagined that this little girl, who was only about five or six years old, had already become a company commander. How could this be possible? Could a child be a soldier?
Without giving them much time to think, they had already arrived at the place where the soldiers were resting. When Xu Hongchang saw the three children, he was stunned for a moment, then came over and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, have you figured it out?
Are you ready to follow us out of the mountains?"
Xiao Mohe took his younger brother and sister and bowed to Xu Hongchang first. "Hello, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. I misunderstood you. I apologize."
Xu Hongchang exchanged a glance with Chang Yin and Fei Shuwen, and a smile appeared in their eyes. Xu Hongchang stepped forward and pulled the three children up. "Hey, kids, there's no need to be so formal. Just think it through. This deep mountain is really not suitable for children to live alone."
"Yes. We want to go out. Can you take us with you?"
Although Tang Yue agreed, it was obvious that the person in front of them was the leader. If he didn't agree, they would have no way to follow him.
"I agree. How could I not agree? I'm so happy that you're willing to leave the mountains. Once you're out of the mountains, do you still remember where your home is? After we get out, we can register at the nearby police station and have them send you back home."
Xiao Mohe's face turned pale when he heard this, and he took two steps back. "No, we don't remember where our home is. We don't have a home, and we're not going back."
Xu Hongchang put away his smile. It seemed that these children had quite a few stories.
"Well, let's think of a solution after we get out."
At their speed, they should have been able to leave the mountain tonight. Having been delayed this morning and now having to wait for these children, it seemed they wouldn't be able to leave today.
It's a good opportunity for them to rest in the mountains for another night, and they can practice well tonight.
Sun Jinan and Wang Ming brought back a roe deer and a few pheasants and rabbits. Everyone worked together to prepare them. After roasting them, they gave a lot to the three siblings.
Holding the fragrant meat in their hands, they felt that only the gods in the mountains could live such a day.
Sun Jinan moved closer to Tang Yue and said, "Captain, you are really the best."
Tang Yue gnawed on a chicken leg without saying a word. Sun Jinan didn't leave, but moved closer to Tang Yue. "Hey, Captain, can we hunt some more game to bring down the mountain?"
Tang Yue turned her head to look at him, and Sun Jinan chuckled, "Isn't this because you haven't eaten enough? We in the army can't eat meat every day. It's really a blessing to be able to eat meat these days."
"You can take it if you want, but in this weather, if it dies, it will probably stink in a day."
Sun Jinan......
The meat in his mouth didn't taste as good anymore. He just thought the company commander was amazing and wanted to find a solution, but the company commander actually said this.
Alas, Sun Jinan sighed to the sky. It seems that he will have to say goodbye to the days of eating meat every meal from now on.
In the afternoon, we climbed two more mountains. After seeing that there were three more mountains to climb before we could get out of the Qinling Mountains, we stopped.
Chang Yin, Sun Jinan, and the others all sensed that the spiritual energy seemed to become thinner as they got further out. They planned to soak up some more spiritual energy in the mountains tonight.
During these days, they had been quietly cultivating while listening to the insights of Chang Yin and the others while traveling. Among their group, only Bu Mancang and Wang Junhui had felt something, but it was very subtle. The rest of them had no reaction at all.
Tang Yue pondered the results. She had already come to a conclusion: those she had injected spiritual energy into seemed more sensitive to it. And those who interacted more with her seemed to sense it more quickly than those who had less contact.
Xu Hongchang and his group had no prior contact, having only known each other for a few days. Therefore, their speed in perceiving spiritual energy was extremely slow. As for the others in her group, aside from Sun Jinan and Wang Ming, who were relatively quick, the rest were like sluggish cows pulling a cart, making little progress.
However, there was some progress. Once they left the Qinling Mountains, the spiritual energy would be even thinner, and it would be difficult for them to reach the first level of Qi training. But at least they were much stronger than ordinary people.
Tang Yue's gaze fell on Xiao Mohe and his two siblings. She had a bold idea. Since she was the company commander, it should be okay for her to recruit the people she wanted to use, right?
Since the news of the cultivation had already spread, if one person knew about it, it wouldn't matter if more people knew about it. Then she could form a company to cultivate. Wouldn't that make them invincible?
Tang Yue felt very happy just thinking about this, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
Xiao Mohe saw Tang Yue's eyes glowing as she looked at them, and he felt a little strange. Chang Yin sat next to Tang Yue and said, "You're drooling."
"Slurp!" Tang Yue finished the action and looked at him in disbelief, "Battalion Commander!"
"What are you thinking about? Come with me somewhere later."
