However, he still knew what was important and what was urgent. Most importantly, Jian, who was always dealing with problems, also knew that if he was asked to notify Captain Lin, it might be related to them.
He immediately sent his own son out again.
“Go, go to the garrison, or find Captain Lin. It’s extremely urgent. Then take him to the foot of the mountain. Li Zhiqing will take me up later. Tell her to come back and wait for you at the foot of the mountain.”
Li Yan, who was standing to the side, had unknowingly taken on a job, the kind that she couldn't refuse.
Massaging her legs, Li Yan vowed that she needed to rest for a few days, at least three, and definitely wouldn't go up the mountain; her legs were getting so thin from all the running.
Back in the cave, Jian Dan managed to sneak out a water bottle and, while holding his nose, poured a few mouthfuls of water into Cheng Chao's mouth.
Yes, it worked very well; it woke him up.
"Cough cough cough..."
A deafening cough followed, and Cheng Chao slammed himself against the stone wall again.
"Can I suspect that you're trying to choke me to death?"
She still has the energy to speak, so she should be alright.
"You still have the energy to think? Looks like there's nothing seriously wrong?"
After all, it's a passionate age, so naturally they want to show off.
"Yeah, they won't die."
Jian Dan didn't bring a basket, and couldn't take out anything big. I looked at him.
"Can you hold on? I've already sent someone to call for backup."
"You can't burn your brain, can you?"
Cheng Chao hadn't realized he had a fever until this was mentioned, at which point he felt his face burning and his mind going sluggish.
"No way, right?"
Simplicity is also a big deal.
"Oh, that's fine. It's okay. Even if you get burned, it's still a work-related injury."
Cheng Chao, unsure of his own feelings, couldn't help but cough again.
"Um, do you have any more water?"
Jian Dan handed him the water bottle, and Cheng Chao gulped down a large amount of water, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
"Oh! I'm so thirsty!"
He simply sat down on a stone on the ground and asked with great interest,
"You've been stuck here for days?"
Cheng Chao seemed to blush slightly, but it was hard to see clearly with his stubble, except for a slight blush on the tips of his ears.
"I can't remember exactly, but it should have been around six or seven days, right?"
It wasn't so serious at first. Although I was injured, I could still move and was still conscious. I remember the next day, it was raining, and I even crawled out to collect rainwater to drink.
After that, I think I started to have a fever that night, and all my things had been lost in the mountains over the past few days.
With this wound on my body, it's difficult to move even a step. I don't have any medicine on me, so I can only endure it like this.
A few days ago, I still held onto hope, thinking someone would find this place soon. But day by day, after the rain stopped, I knew I was just waiting to fend for myself.
Simple muttering,
"Then why did you hit my dog?"
The little ones also barked a few times in response.
Cheng Chao chuckled softly, his abdomen trembling, and after a moment he spoke.
"If it were a person, it would be fine, but this sound is clearly from an animal. I'd rather die on my own than be eaten by them."
Even if things don't go well, I still hope to at least have a complete corpse.
A simple, dry laugh.
"That's true too."
He was given a pot of water in several portions, but it was clear that his symptoms were getting worse and worse. He was even speaking unclearly. The main problem was that Jian Dan didn't know anything about medicine, so he didn't dare let him fall asleep. He just hoped someone would come quickly so he could be handed over to someone else.
Try every possible way to find topics to talk about with him and keep him from sleeping.
"By the way, how come you forgot to bring money and tickets for what seemed like an important matter last time?"
Cheng Chao mustered his spirits.
"And you're telling me? I was so angry! I had everything all prepared, and I even put it in my pocket the night before. I was almost checking it the next morning when things went wrong. You wouldn't believe it, I ordered a whole bunch of things, but when I went to pay, I reached into my pocket and there was nothing there. I was completely dumbfounded."
This had never happened before. I searched all my pockets, but there was nothing there. My face was burning hot then, even more so than it is now.
It is indeed a very important matter. My uncle and his family are waiting for me at the government office. They have already given me their money and receipts. There is no way I can go back to get them in time. Not to mention whether I can even find them if I go back, it will also delay important matters.
I just stood there waiting at the door for more than half an hour, hoping to run into someone I knew who could help me out. Half an hour! You have no idea how those people looked at me.
If I hadn't really had something to do, I would have crawled into the ground right then and there. You know how I felt when I saw you, right?
I almost cried, you know? It was like God sent someone to save me from hell.
"Did you find it later?"
Cheng Chao pouted.
"It wasn't my fault. Someone was trying to sabotage me. They knew those banknotes were very important to me, and they also knew I wouldn't have any extra with me at the time, so they deliberately caused trouble. When I got back, I took my revenge myself."
A sickly body and a fierce look in his eyes—well, to put it simply, it's quite a good match.
"Are there people like this in the military?"
"I don't believe it either. The military is also a corrupting influence. However, such people are a minority, a very small minority. The vast majority of them have extremely high respect and enthusiasm for the motherland and the people. Those black sheep will be purged from our ranks sooner or later."
It's clear that he has a deep affection for the military.
He simply asked casually.
How many years have you been in the military?
Cheng Chao recalled,
"Oh dear, it's gotten quite long."
Simply disbelieve
"Guess how old you are? You're so old-fashioned! Even if you're twenty, how old do you think you are to join the army?"
"Hehe, no, I grew up in a military compound when I was a child. I officially joined the army when I was a teenager, so it's been six or seven years now."
"Oh, so you're a veteran?"
Cheng Chao was very proud of this.
"What do you think? Do you think ordinary soldiers can complete this kind of mission?"
Simply give a thumbs up.
"Hmm, impressive, an elite."
The praise made Cheng Chao feel embarrassed.
"That's not quite right. It's just that I'm young, impulsive, and don't know my own limitations. I always want to try things out on my own. My uncle always tells me that I'll learn from my mistakes."
Simple curiosity
Did you crash?
"you?"
Cheng Chao was almost driven mad by her.
"Miss, I am a patient. Is this the kind of topic you should discuss with a patient?"
What I need is a calm and peaceful state of mind; I can't get excited or have too many emotional ups and downs.
Simply crossed his arms, expressionless.
"Is this what you call being a patient? And having a peaceful mindset? Ask yourself, when have you ever had a peaceful mindset? You brought up the wrong topic, don't blame it on me."
"Why are you making so many demands when I'm offering free chat?"
"I?"
Cheng Chao clutched his chest, reflecting, "Is that so? Is it my fault? What did I say? What did I ask for? This illness has confused me; how did this become the fish's memory?"
