Shen Jianguo is going crazy too.
"Commander, that's really all the educated youth, Xiao Jian. She just said that one sentence and then headed in this direction."
He said it several times, but why didn't the commander believe him?
He's not the kind of person who lies.
"Commander, I swear, it's true. If you don't believe me, ask him. He heard it too."
Does Lin Zhengde not believe it?
On the contrary, he understood her simple temperament all too well; that was more like her personality.
He had been on tenterhooks the whole way, and when he finally arrived, he was secretly pleased that the girl had been so cooperative. But it turned out she was just waiting for him here.
She spun around in circles, still feeling indignant. She thought of telling them to go find someone, but she still had some sense. Sending them out to find someone would be like throwing lambs to the slaughter. Who knows, when Xiao Jiandan comes back, they might have to go out and rescue them.
The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became. Looking at the rows of wooden figures standing there, they seemed eager to try, but he dared not. With their limited abilities, in this deep mountain, they would be nothing more than food delivered to the wild animals. Why would he need to find someone?
Down the mountain, after rushing to deliver the reinforcements, Cheng Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Heaven knows that although they weren't busy down there these past few days, the mental anguish they endured was immense. Now, the huge weight on their hearts had finally been lifted. Although they were exhausted and hungry, their spirits were soaring.
"Put away all the tents and clean up the scene."
Seeing his smile, one of the bolder ones asked,
"Political Commissar, are we about to call it a day?"
Cheng Jin felt a huge weight lifted from his shoulders, and his voice became lighter.
"Almost there, almost there. Your battalion commander will come down soon, and then we'll call it a day."
Once the vehicles were ready, people started loading them as soon as they came down the mountain.
"Someone who's quick on their feet, go back and tell Old Zhang to prepare some good food so the brothers can have a good meal."
"Yes, Political Commissar, I'll go back now."
Cheng Jin waited happily for half the afternoon, heating the simple hut and the kang (heated brick bed) until they were warm and cozy. What awaited him was Lin Zhengde with a dark, brooding expression, and Jian Dan, pale-faced, standing on Lin Zhengde's back. Cheng Jin was instantly enraged.
"Holy crap! I lent you my niece, and this is how you protect her?"
To be honest, Lin Zhengde was also wronged. He didn't even know what had happened. He was holding the fort when he saw Jian Dan staggering towards him, and he was so scared that he lost his mind.
"Don't say that, my leg is still weak. Quickly put it in the car and find a doctor. Has Old Yang arrived yet?"
Cheng Jin didn't have time to say anything to him and quickly reached out to take Jian Dan from him.
"I sent someone back; they should be here in a bit."
"Well, how about we bring it inside first?"
I tried it, and his breathing was normal, and there was no smell of blood on him. I guessed he was probably just tired.
"Why don't we let her warm up first, and then let Old Yang take a look at her later?"
Cheng Jin snorted but didn't object. He picked up Jian Dan and turned to walk towards the courtyard. Feeling guilty, Lin Zhengde quickly stepped forward to open the door. As soon as he entered the house, he was greeted by a wave of heat. Lin Zhengde's body, which had been frozen solid, stiffened for a moment.
After placing the person on the kang (a heated brick bed), Cheng Jin, still somewhat worried, checked their breathing. Only after confirming there was nothing wrong did he breathe a sigh of relief, and then directed his anger at Lin Zhengde beside him.
"How did you promise me that?"
Didn't you say you would protect her mother well?
What happened? She was lively and energetic when she left, but she's back unconscious. You, you, you... I...
Seeing that Cheng Jin was about to grab something to use, Lin Zhengde quickly stopped him.
"Hey, Cheng, calm down. Are you even listening to me? I still have something to say."
event! "
Cheng Jin paused for a few seconds with his raised hand before slamming it hard against Lin Zhengde, saying irritably,
"Tell me, these are all important matters."
On the one hand, to divert his attention, Lin Zhengde did want to tell him about the gold mine. When he heard that it was located on the border between the two countries, mostly in the neighboring country, Cheng Jin had a strange feeling, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
When Lao Yang arrived with his entourage, including Cheng Chao who had just returned, Cheng Jin suddenly remembered something.
Did she hear you when you were talking about the gold mine?
Lin Zhengde was stunned.
"...No, right? Besides, it's so far away, near the border..."
Looking at the person on the kang (heated brick bed), Cheng Jin sighed but said nothing.
Give the place to Lao Yang.
"Come quickly and check on him. He hasn't woken up since we got back. Could he have internal injuries?"
Lin Zhengde...
If there are no external injuries, then it must be internal injuries?
Can't you hope for something better?
Old Yang frowned as he took the pulse, then pulled at the eyelids, remaining silent for a long time.
The others dared not utter a sound, for fear of disturbing them.
"What's going on? Why hasn't he woken up yet?"
Lin Zhengde was the least patient of them all. In the end, he bore the greatest responsibility for this matter, and he was feeling guilty right now, wondering why he hadn't kept a close watch on things.
Old Yang straightened up, and the look in his eyes was indescribable.
"How's it going? Say something!"
Old Yang's tone was strange.
"No, what makes you all think she's not doing well?"
"What do you mean?"
Cheng Chao slapped him across the face.
"Speak properly."
Old Yang tilted his head and dodged it.
"No, look for yourselves, this is just overwork, he's so tired he fell asleep, he's asleep, not unconscious. This sudden fright scared me to death."
"Alright, alright, I'll go check on those injured kids. You guys discuss it."
