Liang Junwen and Liu Wei met each other's eyes, both filled with deep concern for Fu Yanci and Zhang Junshan.
Their brows were furrowed, and their eyes were full of anxiety and uneasiness.
But now that Lu Xiangdong was leading the team personally, they felt more confident.
Liang Junwen quickly put his feet together, straightened his back, raised his hand and saluted in a standard military salute, and said loudly: "Yes, commander!"
Next, everyone struggled forward along the rugged mountain road.
The mountain road is rugged and covered with large and small stones. You have to be careful with every step you take, as you might trip if you are not careful.
Everyone lined up, one following the other, with their eyes fixed on the road beneath their feet.
They searched along the stream. The gurgling stream made clear sounds in the silent night, as if guiding them.
Along the way, Su Wantang's eyes were filled with endless anxiety, and she kept calling out the names of Fu Yanci and Zhang Junshan.
I don't know how long they walked, but suddenly, the soldier at the end of the team shouted: "Report to the division commander, there is some blood here!"
Everyone turned around quickly and saw the soldier walking carefully along the bloodstains and found another piece of rag in the grass by the stream.
Su Wantang stepped forward quickly and recognized at a glance that this was the fabric used for military uniforms.
Her eyes were red with excitement and she said in a trembling voice: "This is the cloth for the troops' clothes. They must be nearby!"
Everyone's spirits were immediately lifted, and their eyes were filled with hope and fighting spirit.
They immediately dispersed and began to search the surroundings more carefully, not missing any corner.
Just then, a faint groan was heard from not far away.
Su Wantang's heart suddenly trembled, and she looked anxiously in the direction of the voice, her eyes full of worry and concern.
Her hands clenched unconsciously, and then she carefully followed the team and rushed towards the direction of the sound.
They came to a hidden cave, which was covered by dense vines and filled with a damp smell.
The damp smell mixed with the faint smell of blood made people feel uneasy.
The sound came from inside the cave.
Lu Xiangdong made a gesture to Feng Yuanzheng, his eyes conveying vigilance and decisiveness.
Feng Yuanzheng immediately understood what he meant, and he led his men, armed with weapons, and tiptoed into the cave.
Su Wantang and Lu Xiangdong followed closely behind.
As they walked along, there were several bodies of bandits in the cave. Su Wantang's heart was in her throat, her breathing became rapid, her eyes were wide open, and she looked around vigilantly.
Finally, they saw Fu Yanci lying on the ground in the cave, and Zhang Junshan sitting beside him with a serious expression.
Su Wantang could no longer control herself, tears welled up in her eyes, and she rushed to Fu Yanci regardless of everything, holding his hands tightly with both of hers.
He choked up and said, "Feast!"
Fu Yanci's face was as pale as paper, completely bloodless, with bloodstains at the corners of his mouth, and he looked extremely weak.
Hearing Su Wantang's voice, he seemed to be pulled back to reality from darkness and opened his eyes weakly.
The moment he saw Su Wantang, a light flashed in his eyes: "Wanwan...is it really you? Wanwan..."
Su Wantang tightly held Fu Yanci's hand and burst into tears: "It's me, I'm here to save you! Hang in there, we'll take you out right away."
Zhang Junshan saw Su Wantang was about to help Fu Yanci up, and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Comrade Su, don't touch Captain Fu yet, he...his leg is injured!"
When Su Wantang heard this, her heart skipped a beat and her eyes quickly fell on Fu Yanci's legs.
And the plot in the original book about Fu Yan being injured while on a mission and accidentally breaking both legs also came to mind.
Could it be that the plot in Fu Yan's book where he broke his leg during a mission actually happened here?
