"I can't do it anymore. I need to rest. I, huh... I can't walk anymore..." The junior brother stopped, squatted down slowly, put Walnut down from his back, and said, "Call the police..."

When he thought of what Hu Tao said about people growing poppies in the mountains, he became so scared that his legs went weak. Everyone knows that people in this business are cruel and ruthless. If the five of them were to come face to face with those people, they would be dead.

In better cases, he fed the wild beasts in the mountains. In worse cases, he gave his heart and soul to the people.

Zhang Xin glanced at him and said, "Now, no one is stopping you from calling the police."

You Jinge stepped forward, pulled Hu Tao onto his back, and then followed Zhang Xin's footsteps.

The junior fellow was sitting on the ground sulking. He watched the two people walk away, slapped the ground in anger, and stood up to follow them.

At noon, when the sun was at its hottest, the three men carried Hu Tao and Fang Rou back to the half-human-height weeds they had been to before.

Clear a place and put Hu Tao and Fang Rou down.

It has been confirmed that Hu Tao is not in danger of life, he was just exhausted from being too tired and hungry. After replenishing his energy and resting, he will be fine.

Fang Rou was weak and skinny, and it was obvious that she had been abused. But after she was given some water, her condition stabilized.

This is also the reason why You Jinge and Zhang Xin decided not to call the police for the time being after coming down from the mountain to rest.

We need to save people, but we also need to take care of ourselves.

"After the rest, you carry Fang Rou and I will carry Hu Tao." Zhang Xin said to You Jinge while studying the compressed biscuits in his hand.

You Jinge nodded slightly, took a small bite of the compressed biscuit in her hand, and her saliva secreted from her mouth to wet the biscuit. The tiny energy nourished her body, and her fatigue immediately subsided a little.

She looked at Zhang Xin, and Zhang Xin also looked inquiring, apparently he had also discovered the difference in the compressed biscuits.

The junior fellow student at the side was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, stuffing a compressed biscuit into his mouth like a cow chewing a peony. He finished one in a few bites, patted his stomach and sighed, "You know what, this compressed biscuit is quite filling."

He apparently didn't notice the difference in the biscuits.

"Be frugal." Zhang Xin reminded him without telling him about the biscuits.

The junior brother opened and closed his eyes, "I want to sleep for a while."

"Go to sleep." Zhang Xin.

"Then don't forget when you leave..." Before he could finish his words, he started snoring.

Zhang Xin stood up and arranged the weeds around him to make them look more natural. He said to You Jinge, "You should take a nap, too."

You Jinge did not refuse. She stayed up for the second half of the night and did strenuous physical activities for the whole morning. She was able to hold on until now only because of her perseverance.

Before closing her eyes, she was still thinking that when she returned, she would have to train more and learn some self-defense skills...

The sun sets slowly in the west.

In order to make the target smaller, the five people closed their eyes, huddled together tightly, and were sweating profusely. The insects and ants in the grass crawled over them but did not wake them up.

I don’t know how long it took, but Hu Tao slowly opened her eyes and felt the heat from her arm. She tilted her head and saw You Jinge’s sleeping face.

It is impossible to dream so clearly. Hu Tao showed a smile of surviving a disaster and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she survived again.

Zhang Xin woke up when Hu Tao breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the time on his watch, sat up, and asked Hu Tao, "Are you awake? How do you feel? Can you walk on your own next step?"

Walnut didn't hesitate, "I have regained a lot of strength. I can walk by myself, but I'm very hungry."

Zhang Xin took out a compressed biscuit from his pocket, opened it and handed it to her, "Eat slowly, we don't have enough water."

Walnut took the compressed biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth. "What's the situation now? You are not a rescue team, right?"

At least the rescue team won't wear casual clothes when they are out in the mountains.

"It's too complicated to explain right away," You Jinge sat up, rubbing his forehead as he answered Hu Tao, "You'll know when you get back."

Then he asked, "Do you know how to leave the mountain?"

Hu Tao nodded, "I know. Fang Rou told me this many times."

He turned to look at Fang Rou who was still sleeping beside him, and briefly told her about his predicament, "... Fang Rou was afraid that she would get me killed as well, so as long as we had time during the escape, she had been planning a route for me to escape."

"You know what, Fang Rou is quite smart. She was able to plan a route for us even though we were running around to avoid people."

Walnut bit into a compressed biscuit and sighed: "If we hadn't accidentally stumbled into the poppy field, we wouldn't have been hiding and afraid of being discovered."

You Jinge pondered for a while after hearing Hu Tao's words, and then asked, "So, you two didn't see the people guarding the poppy fields with your own eyes?"

Walnut nodded, "Yes, but we saw a straw hut, so there should be someone there."

You Jin Ge: "..."

She took out a fully charged phone from her bag and handed it to Kurumi, "Your phone."

When Hu Tao saw her cell phone, she half stood up but fell down again. However, the surprise on her face expressed her joy, "Wow..."

Just when I wanted to say "thank you", tears started flowing.

You Jinge and Zhang Xin did not say anything to comfort her and just let her cry.

I'm too tired and really not in the mood.

The junior brother was awakened by the crying and rubbed his eyes, "Are you going to leave?"

After realizing what was going on, he looked at Hu Tao with an excited expression on his face, "Oh, you're awake. That's great, that's great. Now you can walk by yourself, right? I really can't carry you anymore."

For him who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, the most difficult experiences in his life were yesterday and today.

Hu Tao's face was full of gratitude: "Thank you so much, my name is Hu Tao, you..."

The junior brother was very happy: "My name is Zhen Wei."

"Which Wei? Wei in Mingzhu Weibao? Thank you so much for saving me. I will bring my parents to your house to thank you later. I..."

"No, no, no!!!" Before she could be happy that Hu Tao got the meaning of her name right, Zhen Wei immediately raised his hands to stop her from speaking.

"I can't tell my parents. If they know I took such a risk, they will break my legs!" Zhen Wei was horrified.

As a second-generation rich man, the reason why he didn't grow up too badly was all thanks to the support of his parents.

After a while, everyone became more sober and the atmosphere was not so depressing anymore.

You Jinge looked at the time, stood up and said, "Let's go, hurry up and get going."

Zhang Xin interrupted You Jinge's attempt to carry Fang Rou, "Let me do it."

Zhen Wei immediately stood up to support Hu Tao.

Hu Tao stood up and looked at the surrounding terrain. After thinking for a while, he pointed to the way You Jinge and the other two came and said, "Go this way."

You Jinge and Zhang Xin, who had been remembering the route, couldn't help but raise their eyebrows and looked surprised.
