"Little stutterer, I... I'm afraid I won't make it. You absolutely must find Brother Ye Feng and make sure he lives to the end. I'm entrusting my daughter to him..."
After saying that, his head slumped, and he slowly closed his eyes…
"Brother Xiong! No...no! I...I...can't...do it alone! Don't...die, Brother Xiong!"
He shook Fu Changxiong's broad shoulders forcefully, and instantly recalled the time when they were attacked by the wild boar king.
It was this older brother who stepped forward and helped him escape a disaster.
As a result, Fu Changxiong almost lost a leg...
He suffered bullying from a young age; apart from the headmistress and his sister, no one was willing to protect him or care for him…
After arriving here, only Brother Feng and Brother Xiong in front of him didn't find his talkativeness annoying and continued to protect him.
Otherwise, he would have died somewhere in the woods or bushes long ago, becoming nourishment for this land.
Now, one of his older brothers is gone, another is missing, and even his only remaining relative, his beloved older sister, will likely leave him soon…
But he had no way to stop it all.
In an instant, he seemed to have become utterly alone, silently awaiting death in this desolate land…
Perhaps it will happen tonight, because the sky is already gradually being swallowed by darkness…
Having spent so long in the Amazon, he knew very well what the night represented…
Although Qi Xiaojie is an adult, he is still just a boy who has just turned eighteen...
How could anyone withstand such a blow...
This heartbreaking scene overwhelmed him, and he threw his head back and burst into desperate sobs…
"ah!……"
The heart-wrenching cries startled all the birds in the surrounding woods, sending them flying away...
The enormous calls of the birds and the sound of their flapping wings seemed to be announcing to him…
The game ends here...
"Brother Feng! Where are you?! I really... can't... hold on any longer..."
Tears streamed down his face uncontrollably. He collapsed to his knees on the stone, his heart filled with utter despair…
Now, he doesn't want to do anything anymore; he just wants to wait for death to come and end this short life...
At the end of the stone path, in the woods, Ye Feng was frowning, carefully examining the area.
He had just returned from collecting materials when the calls of birds caught his attention.
He could hear it clearly; it was the sound of a flock of yellow-capped parrots.
Ye Feng has been here for two days and has never heard such a loud scream before.
Generally speaking, birds only make this sound when they are frightened or fighting.
Could it be that someone, or perhaps a wild animal, has come?
Ye Feng dared not be careless at all, as either of these would pose a great threat to his safety.
After all, it's not far away, and with a little searching, you might be able to find your campsite.
Therefore, I must take action now…
Thinking of this, he quickly climbed up the treehouse, picked up his compound bow and telescope, slung his quiver over his shoulder, and headed towards the source of the sound…
As soon as he stepped out of the woods, he spotted several familiar figures on the narrow, rocky downhill path.
But it was getting dark, and he couldn't be sure who it was. Out of caution, he picked up his binoculars and took a look...
The first thing that catches the eye is Qi Xiaojie kneeling on the ground…
Ye Feng's lips were about to curl into a smile, but he immediately noticed the other people lying on the ground.
Judging from its motionless position, it's clearly injured...
He quickly started running...
"Little stutterer!"
Upon hearing the sound, Qi Xiaojie's desperate and dejected eyes suddenly brightened, and he quickly turned to look...
The man I'd been longing for, the one who could bring everyone a sense of security, has finally appeared…
He quickly stood up, took off his glasses, and vigorously wiped the water-drenched lenses, fearing it might be a hallucination…
Upon discovering that it was indeed Ye Feng, he felt as if he had seen his father come back to life, and ran over with excited, yet unsteady steps…
She hugged Ye Feng tightly one last time and began to sob on his chest…
"Feng... Brother Feng, Brother Xiong, they're... dead. My sister is... going to die too. Please... save her."
"What did you say!?"
Ye Feng's eyes widened, and his heart felt as if it had been struck a heavy blow.
Fu Changxiong was the person who had been with him the longest, and also the person he liked the most in the team.
It's not just about personality and execution; most importantly, they share the same deep-seated connection.
That is... for the most important person in my life...
Before he could ask what had happened, he shoved Qi Xiaojie aside and ran to Fu Changxiong's side...
When I saw his snow-white face and the wooden arrow stuck in his back, my heart sank...
With tears in her eyes, Ye Feng placed her hand on his chest…
But not long after he put it on, his expression changed. He blinked a couple of times and then suddenly held back his tears…
He turned around and beckoned to Qi Xiaojie with a finger...
When he got close, he found that the sadness on his face had completely disappeared.
Before Qi Xiaojie could even react, Ye Feng slapped him across the face…
"Smack!"
He was knocked off his feet...
"Little stutterer! Is your head pointy? You called someone who was unconscious dead?"
"Your dead people have heartbeats?! Damn it, you almost made me cry! You idiot!"
"ah?"
Faced with Ye Feng's angry glare, Qi Xiaojie stopped sobbing. He then realized that he hadn't actually listened to his heartbeat...
He scratched his head, looking embarrassed...
"I'm...I'm sorry, Brother Feng, I...I was too tired and forgot to check..."
Ye Feng shook his head helplessly and began checking on the others.
Only after it was all over did he realize that Liu Sisi was the most dangerous person.
Because her high fever lasted for a long time, she would not have been able to recover without modern medicine.
Although Qi Xiaoyan and Fu Changxiong looked frightening, thankfully their internal organs were intact, and their wounds had been completely healed…
The vein was injured, but the bleeding has stopped.
Most importantly, the wooden arrow was too weak to penetrate deeply.
The reason for fainting was simply due to excessive blood loss, coupled with physical exhaustion, resulting in a brief coma.
With proper rest and a diet rich in blood-nourishing foods, you should recover in no time.
Ye Feng glanced at the sky and decided not to delay any longer…
"Little stutterer, hurry up and memorize it, or something bad might really happen."
After saying that, the two began the moving work...
Since it wasn't far from his camp, the three who had fainted were carried back in less than ten minutes.
Since the treehouse can only accommodate two people at most, Ye Feng had Qi Xiaojie start building the platform...
Qi Xiaojie had also participated in the previous two treehouse constructions, and building the floor wasn't too difficult...
Anyway, Ye Feng has already built the framework and collected a lot of wood, so all he has to do is fill in the blanks according to the framework...
