Chapter 326 Ending Part 2
It was too dark in the pit and too bright overhead, so Tu Yao couldn't see anything at all.
She called out again.
"elder brother!"
But there was no sound from above.
Where she couldn't see, Tu Chaoxi's legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground.
"elder brother!"
Lin Yue quickly tried to help him up, but was stopped by a raised hand.
"...No, don't help me up, let me catch my breath."
Tu Chaoxi was breathing heavily, her head and body covered in cold sweat.
"Get them out of there right now, don't delay!"
The shallow concave surface was firmly blocked by several large and heavy stones, and beneath the stones, tree trunks stretched out to protect it.
It's a level of luck that everyone who has witnessed such a scene would consider themselves fortunate.
Tu Yao continued to call him "brother" persistently.
Tu Chaoxi felt a headache coming on. "Quickly, tell her to stop shouting. It's like she's calling for her soul!"
Lin Yue almost laughed. When they couldn't find him, his brother was a cold-faced devil, but once they found Tu Xiaomao, he started to get irritable again.
Nan Ke squatted at the edge of the pit, and through the gaps between the leaves, he could clearly see Tu Yao's wet and dirty face.
He opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Tu Yao couldn't help but pout: "Second Brother..."
She quickly wiped her face and called out again, "Second Brother!"
After several hours of tension, Nan Ke's mind relaxed, and her eyes reddened.
"...Don't be afraid, isn't Xu Chi here too?"
Tu Yao nodded: "I'm not afraid, Xiao Chi is here too."
Listening to her earnest and methodical answer, Nan Ke suddenly felt as if she were in another world.
Without any delay, the rescuers analyzed the terrain and confirmed that rescue was possible. They quickly moved the stones that were pressing on the pit and straightened the collapsed tree trunk.
A concave surface, just large enough to accommodate two people and measuring a full two meters, was successfully revealed.
Tu Yao squatted in the pit, and Xu Chi nodded slightly to her beside her.
The two were soaking wet and looked disheveled, but their spirits were not bad.
...But when the rescuers looked at the concave surface, their expressions suddenly turned serious.
If such a deep and narrow concave surface was formed by the impact of rolling down from above, these two people would have suffered numerous external injuries.
Moreover, five or six hours have passed since the accident, and even the slightest wound is prone to infection.
The two of them look perfectly normal now, which is likely due to hormonal influences, a kind of emergency response by their bodies.
What they could think of, Nan Ke and Lin Yue also thought of.
In an instant, everyone's expression changed.
The team leader made a decisive decision and immediately called for a doctor.
"Quick! Doctor, get in position!"
Just as he finished speaking, the captain suddenly felt his foot being poked.
Looking down, I saw it was Tu Yao.
The girl smiled and said, "We're fine."
She unzipped her coat, and the captain glanced over instinctively, only to see that all of Tu Yao's wounds were tightly bandaged.
The young man beside her, upon closer inspection, also had a layer of green ointment applied to the abrasions on his face.
team leader:?
The next second, a teammate next to him seemed to have seen something, tugged at his clothes, and gestured for him to look over.
Tu Yao silently made way for her, and saw a pile of ointments at the bottom of the pit, as if she were opening a shop.
team leader:? ?
Tu Yao rummaged in her pocket again, pulled out a few candies, stood on tiptoe and placed them at the edge of the pit, saying with a smile, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. You've worked hard. Here, have some candy to replenish your energy."
No, who's replenishing whose stamina?
He suddenly didn't know whether to give away the two bottles of glucose in his hand or not.
Xu Chi couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Nan Ke and Lin Yue, standing to the side: ...
...
A dozen minutes later, the two were rescued one after the other, and the doctor still performed an examination on the spot.
Tu Yao couldn't stand it any longer and turned around to look for people. Her second brother and younger brother were still there, but where was her eldest brother?
The doctor had just released the person when Xu Chi pulled him back.
"Xiao Chi?" Tu Yao turned her head.
Xu Chi switched hands and said to the doctor, "Re-bandage her wrist."
Tu Yao was taken aback for a moment, then immediately quieted down.
Nan Ke and Lin Yue frowned again. Wrist? Did you just injure your wrist?
Before the two could ask, the doctor blurted out, "Young lady, your wrist looks like it has an old injury."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tu Yao didn't need to look to know that her two older brothers' expressions had changed.
The surroundings quieted down, and the doctor quickly re-bandaged the wound, giving a few simple instructions.
Tu Yao didn't dare look at Nan Ke and Lin Yue, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Chi, can I leave now? My brother seems to be missing."
Xu Chi rubbed her head, sighed, and pointed in a direction: "Over there."
Tu Chaoxi stood alone about ten meters away, in a place where the light couldn't reach, holding up her phone as if she were making a call.
Tu Yao quickly ran over.
Behind him, Nan Ke immediately asked in a deep voice, "What happened to her wrist?"
Xu Chi was silent for a few seconds: "...I was injured in an accident four years ago."
Nan Ke's face turned pale, and he looked away, staring straight ahead.
On the muddy ground, no trace of herbs could be seen.
Their sister, four years later, seems to have experienced another cruel twist of fate.
...
On the vast plain, after the signal was completely restored, Tu Chaoxi was reporting the news one by one.
"Yes, we found it. It's alright, don't worry, Grandma."
"They're still doing the check-up, they'll be down in a bit."
...
Tu Yao quietly approached and stood still to listen.
After dialing a few more times, Tu Chaoxi let out a long sigh, looked ahead, and slowly his face darkened.
Even though he couldn't see anything in the darkness, he knew that Tu Yao's herbs on the ground were probably ruined.
Turning her head, she immediately met Tu Yao's deep gaze.
Tu Yao grinned: "Brother!"
Tu Chaoxi: ...
Tu Yao took a step forward, then another: "This time I listened to you. I didn't run away. I'm waiting for you."
Tu Chaoxi remained silent, so Tu Yao continued, "I brought medicine and candy with me beforehand. My injuries weren't serious, and Xiao Chi treated them for me very quickly."
Tu Yao looked at him tentatively, paused for a second, and then continued, "Brother, I saw the phone's location. You're amazing. You guys saved me and Xiao Chi this time."
"I've made up my mind, from now on I'll take my phone with me wherever I go!"
One sentence after another without stopping.
Looking at her lively and energetic appearance, Tu Chaoxi finally couldn't resist anymore.
"...Come here, let me give you a hug."
Tu Yao's eyes lit up, and she quickly moved forward and hugged him tightly.
She was already a tall and slender girl, but when Tu Chaoxi held her, she still felt that she was small.
The emotions he had been deliberately suppressing finally surged up again, and Tu Chaoxi held her tightly, refusing to let go.
"...Are you sad?"
Suddenly, his deep, somewhat unwilling voice came from above.
Tu Yao was taken aback.
"All your herbs are gone."
After enduring so much hardship, there are still no results to be seen.
Tu Yao blinked. "...It's alright."
Tu Chaoxi: ?
Tu Chaoxi pulled the person out: "What do you mean, 'Are you alright'?"
Tu Yao blinked again: "...It's okay, it's okay, it's alright."
"If I don't plant it well the first time, I'll just plant it again."
"And now that I have experience, I'm sure it will be even better the second time I plant it."
As Lin Yue approached Nan Ke, he saw that she looked completely undeterred.
...It's always the same; Tu Xiaomao always manages to become more courageous after each setback.
Seeing the three of them all silent, Tu Yao felt a little helpless.
"...Brother, actually I'm quite happy. Everyone is fine, and so am I."
"This is already very good, isn't it?"
Tu Chaoxi took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
"Yes, it's a very fortunate thing."
It's already a great blessing that his sister is standing here safely.
He almost forgot that his initial hope was that his sister, no matter which world she was in, would just live a good life.
Everything else is supplementary.
But is Heaven really unwilling to grant Tu Xiaomao even a little more favor?
...
Tu Yao chuckled. Anyway, the world hadn't started merging yet, so she had plenty of time to generate new fortune.
She shrugged lightly, glanced up at the ceiling without thinking, and suddenly exclaimed "Eh!"
"What's wrong?"
Tu Yao stared at the progress bar, her face full of confusion.
...That's not right.
"The herbs are all gone, so why isn't the progress bar rewinding?"
Above his head, the progress bar was still glowing with a blue light, and the value remained fixed at 91%.
The next second.
[Luck Progress Bar Announcement: +1]

...
[Luck Progress Bar Announcement: +1]
Tu Yao's eyes widened suddenly.
Not only did it not decline, it actually went up?!
"elder brother!"
"What's wrong?"
A group of people quickly surrounded her, asking anxiously, "What happened?"
Tu Yao pointed to the top of her head, stammering with excitement.
Before she could finish speaking, suddenly—
"Tu Xiaomao!"
"Tu Xiaomao!"
"Tu Yao!"
Tu Yao quickly looked in the direction of the sound and suddenly froze.
Along the mountain range, under the dim light, Qin Lang, Chu Yun, Cheng Sangsang, and Xu Bai, their faces full of excitement, each carrying a large handful of herbs, were running excitedly toward her!
Everyone was soaked by the rain, their faces and bodies covered in mud.
He looked extremely tired, but he held the herbs in his hand high.
"Little Mao!"
"Little Mao!"
...
Suddenly, sounds also rose and fell from the other side of the mountain range.
Tu Yao glanced over instinctively.
On the muddy mountain road, a group of people were struggling through the mud, smiling and waving at her, their hands waving herbs, leaving afterimages in their wake.
It was Uncle Liang and his group.
Upon receiving Tu Chaoxi's message, more than twenty people immediately dismounted from their stretchers and came up in groups, carrying herbs.
Tu Chaoxi, Nan Ke, and Lin Yue, who were standing nearby, had tears welling up in their eyes as they watched this scene.
Xu Chi smiled faintly. Just when they thought that God had once again treated Tu Yao unfairly, people from these two worlds timely brought Tu Yao a piece of candy.
Tu Yao was thus surrounded.
He was surrounded by a crowd.
It was also surrounded by herbs.
Each intact herb, even with its tender green leaves covered in dirty mud and water, and its slender stems and leaves swaying precariously after being battered by the fierce wind.
Yet its root system is full of vitality; without the embellishment of soil, it is intricate and intertwined, standing upright with its claws outstretched.
Tu Yao held the handful of herbs in a daze, slowly coming to her senses.
Slowly, she grinned and looked up.
In the dark, rainy night, the blue glowing orb burst forth with its brightest light.
