At the same time.
The jungle thousands of miles away beyond the border.
After running for more than ten days, Gu Guanhai, clutching his injured shoulder, hurriedly hid behind a rock.
Behind him, gunfire roared incessantly, and his life hung by a thread at every turn.
He had not eaten a single grain of rice for more than ten days, surviving only on snakes, insects, and rain in the jungle.
Hiding behind the rocks, he drank some rainwater from the leaves beside him, then closed his eyes, panting heavily.
He lured away all the pursuers.
His companions should have already returned to their home countries, right?
Their mission should be complete by now, right?
Excessive blood loss, coupled with a prolonged run and escape, left Gu Guanhai utterly exhausted; his body had reached its limit…
"Bang!"
Gunshots rang out from afar.
Gu Guanhai, hiding behind the rocks, did not open his eyes.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"..."
The dense gunfire grew closer and closer.
Gu Guanhai: ...
I don't want to move!
I don't even have the strength to move!
To be able to die on the battlefield again, even if not on the front lines, would be enough for him in this life, but...
For some reason, Gu Guanhai suddenly recalled the courtyard at the entrance of his old village, and the figure in the courtyard who was always busy in the kitchen.
Gu Guanhai: "Damn it!"
"This life is enough?!" That's utter nonsense!
I don't want to die!
He wiped his face, got up, and staggered onward as he continued running.
"You think you can kill me? You're too green!"
"When I was conquering battlefields, you were still playing in the mud!"
As he ran, Gu Guanhai cursed under his breath, "You're going to keep chasing me, huh? Then we'll play it big!"
The jungle where he lived was located at the junction of three countries.
The group that chased him was hired by a certain empire to retrieve the equipment!
But……
They bought the equipment at great expense, but the other party took the money and then went back on their word, trying to take it back—what a pipe dream!
He not only wants them to leave empty-handed, but also wants them to kill each other!
Gu Guanhai chose a direction in the dark jungle based on his intuition, and then ran for his life!
Run! Run! Run!
If he outruns the people behind him, he can go back alive to chase after his wife!
Can't outrun...
Even if he can't outrun them, he'll still try to lure the enemy to an enemy country!
time.
Time slips away, bit by bit.
After Yu Mingxiang lit the oil lamp in Gu Guanhai's room, she left it there.
The lamp oil is limited; it will eventually go out once it runs out.
She went back to the backyard, blew out the lights in the house, and pretended to go to sleep. She waited until midnight, when all three children were fast asleep, before quietly leaving the house.
When Gu Guanhai was around, she had to hide herself and carry her own belongings with her when she went out, not daring to conjure them out of thin air. But now…
She was all alone, so there was no need for her to hide.
She first went to the Cui family's house next to the cowshed, took out a large sack of supplies and placed it at the door of the shack, then gently knocked on the door a few times before slipping into the space.
Soon, the door to the shack was opened.
Cui Hongwei opened the door, was taken aback when he saw the sack at the entrance, and immediately poked his head out to look around.
"who?"
Silence reigned all around.
From inside the shack, Grandpa Cui's voice came asking, "Xiao Wei, who is that?"
"Grandpa, there's no one here."
Cui Hongwei turned around and whispered, "Someone left a sack of things at the door, but we haven't seen anyone."
There was a moment of silence in the shack.
Grandpa Cui's voice came again, "It must be Dr. Yu. Bring the things in, but don't make a sound."
"good."
Yu Mingxiang, hiding in the space, watched everything that happened outside. Only after the shack was completely quiet did she slip out and head to the next house.
Others may be skilled and daring, but Yu Mingxiang is fearless because she has the power to control space.
Anyway, if she encounters danger, she can hide in the space immediately.
That night, Yu Mingxiang visited all the households in Hedao Village that had been relocated there.
