When Cheng Fangyi found Lao Dai, he was in a valley.
Old Dai was squatting on the ground with his collar wide open.
There was a bald spot on the top of his head, several bloody marks on his neck from scratches, his clothes were disheveled, his hands were stained with sticky blood, and he looked like he had lost all hope in life.
At his feet was a woman who had passed out in sleep.
Old Dai covered the woman's face with dead branches and weeds, and she only had an outer shirt on her body, which barely covered her face.
When Old Dai saw Cheng Fangyi, it was as if he had seen a savior, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"Wow, Old Cheng, you guys are finally here. If you had come a little later you wouldn't have been able to see me." Old Dai cried and hugged Cheng Fangyi.
Cheng Fangyi raised his hands, stepped back slightly, and looked at Su Qing nervously.
Su Qing spread his hands, with a helpless expression, and said, "You two can chat about the past first. I'll take people to the front to check the situation."
The brothers were very tactful and followed Su Qing's pace.
Cheng Fangyi paused waving his hands in the air. He couldn't believe that he was abandoned like this, and by his own beloved wife!!!
Cheng Fangyi pushed Old Dai away and said, "What's the point of a grown man crying? If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out of here."
I really wonder how Hou Guangzhi, a man of iron will, could take a little crybaby as his confidant.
Could it be that Hou Guangzhi is still unmarried at forty because...
Cheng Fangyi looked at Lao Dai, and his eyes gradually became impure.
Old Dai, who was confused, was still crying and telling about his tragic experience.
"Old Cheng, the women here are so tough. When they saw I was a stranger, they pounced on me. I was scared to death." Old Dai showed the scratches on his body.
Some are long and some are short, and some of the skin and flesh are turned inside out.
Looking at the woman again, her nails were also covered in blood.
Cheng Fangyi patted Lao Dai's shoulder sympathetically and said, "It's okay. You knocked him out."
But Old Dai felt even more aggrieved. He said with a bitter face, "What else can I do if I don't knock him out? Will he eat me alive? Think about how I faced the dark wooden entrance without blinking an eye. But facing an old woman, my legs are shaking. I'm really useless."
Thinking of his own disappointing behavior, Lao Dai slapped himself twice.
Maybe it hurt, so he started to comfort her softly.
This series of actions left Cheng Fangyi confused.
Old Dai continued to complain, "Old Cheng, you don't know, she's really fierce. When she saw me, she started to strip my clothes. She didn't strip hers, but mine, and kept calling me a bastard. I slapped her in the face like that, but she still came closer. I had no choice but to knock her unconscious.
The most thrilling thing was that as soon as I rested for a while, she stood up like a zombie."
Old Dai recreated the scene as he spoke.
"She stood up and started taking off her clothes, then chased me. I definitely didn't agree, so she just punched and kicked me, and every move was fatal. I couldn't just stand there and get beaten, so I fought back and accidentally severed the tendons in her arms and legs."
Now the woman has fainted due to excessive blood loss.
Old Dai didn't want to look the woman in the eye, so he covered his face with something casually.
After hearing the whole story, Cheng Fangyi was so shocked that his mouth twitched.
"Is she addicted to drugs?" Cheng Fangyi said what he was thinking.
Old Dai shook his head and quickly denied it, "That's impossible. How could a drug addict be so reckless?" If it weren't for his height advantage, he might not be able to subdue her.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Besides her, have you met anyone else?"
Cheng Fangyi looked around.
However, the surrounding area was covered with weeds taller than humans, swaying wildly in the wind.
"No, I just reached the valley when I met this woman." Old Dai was frightened.
"Let's tie her up and follow the main force first. We'll consider how to deal with her when we get there," said Cheng Fangyi.
The figures of Su Qing and his group had long disappeared, and Cheng Fangyi's heart had also flown away.
He was afraid that Su Qing might encounter some danger.
My heart is in turmoil...
"Old Cheng, I don't want to touch her." Old Dai said.
Although he is old, he is still a virgin and has had affairs with only a handful of women.
Now he was asked to tie up a naked woman and take her away, and he was absolutely unwilling to do so.
Cheng Fangyi advised: "If you don't take her away, she will be eaten by wild cats, dogs and wolves when it gets dark."
During this season, many animals often come out to look for food at night.
What's more, the woman was injured, and the smell of blood on her body was the best bait to attract wild animals.
Persuasion was useless, so Cheng Fangyi began to paint a rosy picture for Old Dai.
"Old Dai, think about it. She's a woman, and to be in this desolate place, she must be no ordinary person. We might be able to interrogate her and get a lot of useful information, and then all the credit will be given to you. With your qualifications and achievements, it won't be a problem to move up a level. If your career develops well, a partner will naturally come."
These words left Old Dai stunned.
"Just bear with it for a while and make some sacrifices for this mission. I know it's not easy for you. When we get back to Guang'an City, I'll sing the praises of your great achievements to Old Hou. Actually, I really want to help you, but I have a family and I'm afraid of my wife, so I can only bear with you." Cheng Fangyi said, "You can't let a married man like me do these things."
Old Dai was confused.
In the end, not only did they tie the man up, they also simply bandaged the wound.
It was already dark by then.
Cheng Fangyi didn't dare turn on the flashlight for fear of alerting the enemy, so he could only grope his way forward carefully.
After walking for about another half an hour, we finally saw some light.
Guessing Su Qing's thoughts, Cheng Fangyi thought of several places where Su Qing might be hiding, and took Lao Dai to look for them one by one.
Finally, I met Su Qing and his group behind a hillside sheltered from the wind.
"Wife." Cheng Fangyi called softly, "I'm back. How's the situation here?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Su Qing silently retracted the loaded rifle.
"There are quite a few people stationed here, estimated to be about two hundred people. They just finished dinner and dispersed. We will take action later." Su Qing replied.
She observed these situations through a telescope.
The specific circumstances have not yet been clarified.
So she didn't dare to act rashly.
Cheng Fangyi leaned against Su Qing to rest, squinting his eyes and asked, "Is there anything unusual?"
"There are two visible sentries at the main gate, equipped with heavy machine guns. There are covert sentries at 3, 9, and 11 o'clock, armed with light machine guns. There are patrols, changing positions every half hour.
"Oh, there are thirty houses in total, twenty of which have lights and guards at the doors. I guess they're doing something shameful inside." Su Qing highlighted the key points.
