Not long after Xia Meng and the others left the cave, the Vietnamese army found the cave where they were recovering from their injuries.

The reason why the Vietnamese army appeared here was because there was a village not far from the cave. When some villagers went out, they saw Cao Guoqiang catching fish in the river from a distance, which exposed their whereabouts.

After the enemy carefully searched the cave, they found that there were indeed traces of people living here, and in the corners, there was dried blood that had merged with the ground.

After all, Xia Meng and the others had evacuated in a hurry and couldn't possibly deal with all the traces. They didn't have enough time.

The enemy troops followed the trampled traces of weeds all the way to the river.

Whether in the jungle or by the river, they found crocodiles killed by knives or guns.

Based on the condition of the crocodile carcass, the enemy judged that Xia Meng and the others had stayed in the cave for at least four or five days. And from the footprints detected by the river, the enemy judged that Xia Meng and the others had not gone very far, so the enemy officer did not hesitate. Ordered to cross the river to arrest!

The officer first asked one row of soldiers to go into the river first, and then asked the second and third rows of soldiers to go into the river at the same time. He was sandwiched by the soldiers, and finally asked the remaining soldiers to go into the river last. There were soldiers in front, back, left and right, holding the officer firmly. Protect it inside.

Even though there were many of them, there were also a lot of crocodiles in the water. Soon a soldier's leg was bitten by an underwater crocodile and he was pulled underwater. The soldier screamed and was dragged underwater by the crocodile. A large amount of blood soon poured out of the river.

The officer yelled, "Go! Go!"

Some soldiers panicked, fearing that they would be next, and shot underwater without hesitation, but more soldiers had nothing to do with themselves and rushed to cross the river first!

The smell of blood attracted more crocodiles to hunt. Finally, when all the soldiers came ashore, they counted and found that a total of six people were buried in the belly of the fish!

The officer didn't take it seriously. Anyway, it wasn't him who died.

Then comes the rage!

Scold the soldiers who fired because their firing might reveal their position and allow the enemy to escape.

After the officer slapped several soldiers, his anger gradually subsided. Then he directed the soldiers with a cold face to enter the dense forest and start a search.

Xia Meng and the others quickened their pace and moved away from the shore, but they still heard the faint sound of gunshots.

"They are coming!" Cao Guoqiang looked at Xia Meng with a serious face,

"Comrade Xia, we have to speed up."

Xia Meng nodded, "Okay!"

Zhu Hongwei, who was caught in the middle, said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's all me who has caused you trouble."

"What do you mean by that?" Cao Guoqiang said unhappily, "I have already said that if you hadn't saved me, I would have died."

"You are like this because of me. If you despise yourself, then you are despising me."

"Yes," Xia Mengye said, "Comrade Zhu, we are comrades! We are comrades-in-arms!"

"If you say anything that is not conducive to unity, stop saying it!"

Zhu Hongwei immediately said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault," then he glanced at the two of them and said in a serious tone,

"I will never say that kind of thing again."

Only then did Cao Guoqiang's face show a hint of joy, "This is right!"

In order to avoid arrest, the three of them took the path with more weeds and thorns.

But there seemed to be people in the enemy army who were particularly good at tracking, and they kept chasing them.

After walking with Zhu Hongwei for nearly two hours, Xia Meng and Cao Guoqiang were sweating profusely on their faces, and their heavy breathing sounded like a hand-operated bellows, with a bit of overwhelmed exhaustion.

"Let's rest for a while," Xia Meng suggested.

Cao Guoqiang, "Okay!"

The three of them found a big tree and sat under it to rest. Xia Meng took out his water bottle and drank a few big mouthfuls of spiritual spring water. A coolness flowed down his esophagus and into his abdomen. He felt refreshed and his whole body was full of energy. All the fatigue was swept away by this coolness.

Xia Meng handed the kettle to Zhu Hongwei. Zhu Hongwei picked it up and took a sip, then took a few more sips and laughed,

"This water is so sweet!"

"Every time I drink water, my body feels much lighter."

Cao Guoqiang took the kettle and filled half of it, then nodded and said,

"Me too! Me too!"

"After drinking water, I feel full of strength."

Zhu Hongwei, “The country of Yue has beautiful mountains and clear waters, maybe because the water quality is better.”

Cao Guoqiang nodded, "It's possible."

Xia Meng continued to smile without saying a word.

After resting for ten minutes, Xia Meng's ears twitched, and the sound of feet stepping on weeds reached her ears.

Xia Meng's expression condensed and she listened carefully...

That's right!

She heard it right, the enemy caught up so quickly!

"Let's go," Xia Meng stood up in a whoosh, "the enemy is coming!"

Cao Guoqiang and Zhu Hongwei had no doubts about Xia Meng's words. They stood up immediately without saying a word. The three of them quickened their pace and continued walking forward.

In fact, Xia Meng and the others have lost their way. In the dense jungle, they can distinguish the southeast from the northwest based on the growth of plants. However, they are not familiar with the Yue country. As for where they are now, the three of them don't know. In order to To avoid pursuing soldiers, you can only be forced to go to unfamiliar places, farther and farther...

The three of them walked around until night before finally getting rid of the enemy.

But the enemy is obviously more familiar with the surrounding environment, and they might catch up with them at some point.

The three of them sat behind a boulder to rest. After drinking some water, their stomachs made a "gurgling" sound in unison.

When you are in the cave, you can still cook fish over a fire, but don’t think about it now.

There are enemy troops chasing after them. If they get angry, the enemy will definitely know.

In front of the two of them, Xia Meng couldn't take out the food in the space.

After resting for half an hour, Xia Meng told the two of them, "I'm going out to explore the road and see if I can find something edible."

"I'll go," Cao Guoqiang said immediately. "You're tired after a day of walking. You and Hongwei have a rest while I go."

"It's better for me to go," Xia Meng said rationally, "If the enemy appears, you can still carry Hongwei on your back here and escape, but I can't carry him."

This reason was very convincing, and Cao Guoqiang had no choice but to say, "Then...okay," he said without feeling reassured.

"You must be careful, don't go too far, and scream if something happens."

Xia Meng, "Okay!"

Xia Meng walked around the area first, but didn't find anything edible, so he walked further away.

Xia Meng took out a roast duck from the space. While eating, his eyes were not idle. He looked around and around, but he didn't find anything edible.

The main reason is that we can't light a fire now. Hare, pheasant, fish, etc. can't be eaten raw, right?

Now in February, although the leaves on the trees are green, I haven't found any edible fruits. I have found some mushrooms, but the mushrooms are colorful and pretty. But can they be eaten?

Xia Meng is not sure!

Xia Meng walked farther and farther, and unknowingly came to the foot of a mountain. But after taking only two steps, Xia Meng stopped.

Because she actually saw lights on this mountain!

Xia Meng carefully walked closer and avoided the patrolling enemy troops. Xia Meng was shocked to find that she had accidentally discovered the enemy's gunpowder magazine! ! !
