【Li Ruxing】【Li Ruyue】

These are Uncle Zaozi’s children. Their names sound like sisters, but they were actually born as a pair of siblings.

Huaiyu didn't know how they appeared here. This place was far from a place that the garrison had ever explored, and there was no way of knowing what would happen in the future.

But at this moment, she looked at the scattered bones collected from the moss, branches, and ice and snow on the edge in front of her, and finally put them all into the bag, along with their clothes that could no longer be put together and their old identity tags.

She thought of her mother, who was clinging to the iron window, staring out the window in a disheveled state and despair, and Kataro's pink bouquet from the rose corridor, and her eyes were fixed on the rose on Lin Xuefeng's chest.

It is silent and everything is unclear.

But who can be sure that all this is not God’s will?

She put her backpack away, then took out an eggshell knife and drew a circle on the ice under Lin Xuefeng's feet - the blade was so sharp that it cut into it easily.

Then she took out two thermal blankets, wrapped the ice sculpture in front of her tightly, and then wrapped it with layers of vines with dense branches and leaves.

On the one hand, it ensures that his body is not damaged during the movement, and on the other hand, it also tries to make sure that the ice will not melt with the highest probability.

After everything was done, Huaiyu took out the wire saw again, sat on the ground, and pulled along the incision of the eggshell knife with both hands, slowly cutting the ice layer connected to the ground, and being careful not to let the sculpture fall down...

By the time everything was done, she had already drunk another packet of nutrient solution.

Then Huaiyu looked at the still fierce snowstorm ahead, and carefully fixed the heavy ice sculpture wrapped in layers on the ice, along with the backpack -

This time, she really moved forward with a heavy burden.

…

Huaiyu seemed to have returned to the time when he was in Sanqing Mountain.

She has to build a house, live, and collect food...

On Mount Sanqing, she was out of breath carrying a load of more than ten kilograms, but in order to survive, she had to do it even though she was pulling more than a hundred kilograms.

My shoulders were rubbed raw, my hands were bruised, the redness, swelling, and bruises reappeared every day, and disappeared again after a night. My lungs were burning with pain, and I wanted to give up halfway through and just walk away.

It's really tiring.

But at this moment, pulling a grown man covered in ice, with a large block of ice underneath used as a skateboard, her tears could not be suppressed more than she thought.

As soon as he walked out of the outer range of the blizzard, Huaiyu couldn't help but shed tears while lifting his legs forward.

It’s so hard... Why is it always so hard for her... She was so tired before, and she is still so tired after living a new life.

The forest was not even a smooth path, and there was a long, gentle slope visible ahead. The slope was not steep, but it was enough to double her strength as she kept going up.

Huaiyu sat down on the ground, staring at the large ice sculpture with only its face exposed, and cried, "I'm so tired... My hands and shoulders hurt... My legs are so sore that I can't lift them..."

When she was alone, she could keep all these things to herself, or after venting them, she would immediately grit her teeth and persevere. But once there was someone she could rely on around her, these emotions were like silent tides, receding and coming again and again.

But what if she brought back a living Lin Xuefeng? Thinking of this, she didn't dare to delay any longer, so she wiped her tears in embarrassment, tied the rope again, pulled it with her hands to try to relieve the pain in her shoulders, and tried to move forward again.

This time, she didn't reach the mark of the first sunflower until dark.

There are now two sunflowers standing side by side there, emitting a faint glow in the gradually darkening night. It is not very dazzling, but like the bright moonlight, people can see it from a long distance.

Huaiyu was finally able to loosen the rope with peace of mind, and then gave birth to the third sunflower.

But she didn't plan to rest - a full night's sleep was too long for Lin Xuefeng now, so she decided to put on a headlamp and continue on her journey.

After all, she was alone and close to the center, so no mutant creatures would attack her.

So in the dark forest, in the small area illuminated by the headlamp, there were the sounds of the girl's breathing as she tried her best, the sobs of grievance that she couldn't help but feel because it was too exhausting, and the "clicking" sound of the ice rubbing against the frozen soil.

In the ice sculpture, Lin Xuefeng's quiet face showed no sadness or joy, and time was still frozen at the moment before he was exhausted.

…

Zhou Qian did not leave the area covered by the big tree until noon of the next day, and carried out his twice-daily climbing exploration - as usual, he rested at night, so there would be no change in progress in the morning.

All he had to do was to climb up Sunflower before noon or dark in the evening, and then guess Huaiyu's route based on the situation on the opposite side.

But now he stood carefully on the huge sunflower bed, and saw that two of the three eye-catching sunflower road signs had changed.

From two trees side by side yesterday to three trees now!

It was too late last night when Huaiyu was trying to stimulate the sunflowers to grow, so he didn't see it.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

But in just one night and one morning, there were already two trees? This was really not the efficiency she could have when carrying the weight of an adult man - had something changed?

Or was Xiaoyu... also on the road at night? Zhou Qian couldn't help but get anxious.

Zhou Qian was well aware of Huaiyu's physical strength.

Although when people are pushed into a corner, they will show resilience and perseverance that is difficult for ordinary people to show, it must be very painful.

And Huaiyu...

If she hadn't been forced by life, she would have collapsed after carrying more than 10 to 20 kilograms of vegetables for 1,800 meters. Now if she had to travel overnight with others...

Zhou Qian stood on the tree, his heart full of guilt at this moment.

Obviously, they were in the wilderness together, but Xiaoyu was the only one who had to bear the hardest and most difficult work.

He returned to the car, closed his eyes and silently estimated Huaiyu's progress in his mind. When the third sunflower appeared, he would wait another 1-4 hours, then drive back to the crevice where Huaiyu left and wait quietly.

At this moment, Huai Yu used an eggshell knife to enlarge the entrance of the cave below, and then, with the help of the stability of a big tree next to him, he lowered the tightly wrapped Lin Xuefeng down little by little.

Below is a cold and dark river without sound or light.

When she went down, Lin Xuefeng had been wrapped in vines and was floating slowly in front with the water flow.

Huai Yu took a deep breath, pulled him back, carefully supported his quietly floating body, and stepped into the deep dark river again.

The huge buoyancy made it difficult for her to maintain balance, and the aches all over her body and the stinging pains from her wounds made her extremely awake.

At the same time, the heavy ice blocks ensured that the huge ice sculpture would always protect her firmly, preventing her from choking on water or falling.

Huaiyu's heart was beating like a drum.

Because she knew that Zhou Qian... was just ahead. (End of this chapter)
