Back to the Wilderness

Ten people were digging the tunnel with enthusiasm. Although the progress was very slow, everyone was full of energy and did not feel tired after three or four hours of continuous digging.

Xie Cheng handed the dagger to Ji Fuyun, "I'm going to catch some food, you guys continue."

"En." Ji Fuyun responded, but the casualness in his heart suddenly disappeared when he touched the dagger.This dagger feels soft and natural to the touch, with a moderate weight, and it doesn't feel awkward in the hand at all, as if it is a part of his own hand, which is handy.This is definitely a treasure!

Ji Fuyun held back the surprise in his heart, turned his head to look at Xie Cheng, only to find that he had already walked around the corner and quickly disappeared.

Ji Fuyun looked down at the dagger in his hand, some simple lines were engraved on the handle, the gray blade surface was inconspicuous even under the sunlight, he raised the dagger, easily sank into the earth wall, turned it at will, Just like cutting tofu, the solidified and hard soil did not act as a hindrance.If it weren't for the small size of the dagger, digging the tunnel must have only been a matter of an hour or two.

Only the user of this dagger can truly see its priceless value.If Luo Zongqiang knew that the dagger was more powerful than he had imagined, he would definitely tear his skin apart and grab it directly.

Ji Fuyun smiled, it must be a kind of trust for a person like Xie Cheng to hand over the dagger to him.

Out of the corner of Chen Jia's eyes, he caught sight of this rippling smile, and snorted.

Standing next to Ji Fuyun, Gao Yiyang was digging the soil. Now he remembered that Xie Cheng had been carrying Ji Fuyun on his back, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Brother Ji, why is Boss Xie carrying you? You were injured, is it serious?"

"It's okay." Ji Fuyun shook his head, "It's just a slight injury, and it's almost healed now." It's not really Ji Fuyun comforting Gao Yiyang, his left leg has indeed improved a lot, and I don't know if it's because of the cold moss.

Chen Jia rolled his eyes, "It's fine, I have to be tired of others' backs."

Seeing the way out, everyone was in a good mood, and Lingbi teased after hearing the words: "Chen Jia, don't be sour, we bachelors don't understand the fun between young couples. Ji Fuyun, you say yes, hahahaha."

Ji Fuyunmo.

Gao Yiyang looked bewildered, "Little couple? Interesting? What do you mean? Who is a couple with whom?"

Li Congyun, who was already married, understood it all at once, "Boss Xie and Fuyun are not bad together, you don't have to worry about other people's opinions, that's fine." As he spoke, he thought of Lu Nianzhi and what she was worried about. He looked more eager to go out, and his hands were digging faster and faster. Although his fingertips were already bleeding, he didn't notice it at all.

Gao Yiyang stood there stunned, feeling that his world view had collapsed, "Boss Xie and Brother Ji? Couples?" He looked at Ji Fuyun, hoping to get an accurate answer.

Ji Fuyun didn't know how to explain it, so he turned his head silently, as if he didn't see it, thinking in his heart that he would solve the misunderstanding after avoiding Luo Zongqiang.

But in Gao Yiyang's view, his appearance was an acquiescence, and he was immediately hit with understanding.Although he no longer minded that Ji Fuyun was gay, it was still hard to accept that he suddenly found out that he and Xie Cheng were together.No one told him that Boss Xie also likes men!

Xie Cheng came back soon and brought some fish.

In order to be able to work for a long time, eleven people began to consciously take shifts.

Gao Yiyang squatted aside and ate raw fish while secretly observing Xie Cheng and Ji Fuyun.

Ji Fuyun returned the dagger to Xie Cheng, and said a few words in a low voice, Xie Cheng smiled and listened quietly.After chatting for a while, Xie Cheng advised Ji Fuyun to hurry up to eat, as if he was afraid that Ji Fuyun would be hungry.After hearing this, Ji Fuyun also nodded, walked obediently to the bank of the dark river, and washed his muddy hands and face.

Gao Yiyang bit a large piece of meat and chewed it hard, so it seems that the two of them are really tricky!

After splashing a handful of water on his face, Ji Fuyun felt much refreshed, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. This kind of hopeful feeling is very good.

The sun hit his body, and the water droplets reflected a little bit of light, shining brightly on him, attracting many eyes.

Ji Fuyun's appearance is exquisite, with fair skin, gentle eyebrows and eyes, giving people a feeling of spring breeze, especially when he smiles, it will make people feel better.But he is not as gentle as a woman. The lines at the corners of his face and the straight back all reveal a faint vigor, with a masculine flamboyance and wildness.The two temperaments of gentleness and sharpness are in harmony with him like never before, colliding with his unique charm.

This kind of charm was first discovered by Mai Tianrui, who was his kind, and was deeply fascinated by it.

Now, many people have found out.

Gao Yiyang paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xie Cheng whose eyes had stopped on Ji Fuyun, and suddenly felt that there really seemed to be nothing wrong with such two people being together.

While Xie Cheng and the others were saving themselves, the people in the safe zone also launched rescue activities.

Zhang Shijie and Liu Jun led their respective people to set off to the collapsed mountain. Although the mountain road was extremely steep, no one complained anymore. They all wanted to hurry to the collapsed place and rescue Xie Cheng and the others.

Occasionally, the eye contact between Zhang Shijie and Liu Jun was also hidden in everyone's anxiety, and no one noticed.

He Zhongqing was petite, and the long trek was a huge test for her, but she insisted on not stopping, her brother Fuyun was waiting for her to rescue.

"Don't be brave." Zhang Shijie noticed her, stepped forward and said with concern.

He Zhongqing shook her head, her eyes were slightly red, but she was full of stubbornness.

Zhang Shijie chuckled, reached out to grab her arm, and helped her out.

He Zhongqing paused, then said gratefully: "Thank you."

When they arrived at the collapsed lake, it was already dark, but they could still see clearly in front of them, and everyone couldn't help being stunned.The scene in front of me is really terrifying. It is hard to imagine how much damage has been done here to become like this. It seems that the entire mountain peak has been broken into slag and piled up here.

"Is... can you really dig out something?" Someone whispered.

Zhang Shijie swept the crowd like he said, "Let's start as soon as possible, the sooner the road is dug out, the more likely it is to rescue them."

As he said that, Zhang Shijie divided the manpower into two groups, and they planned to dig day and night.

The sky turned white, and the night passed.The passage they dug was not deep, not even one meter deep. It is really too difficult to dig here, there are large pieces of rubble everywhere, and several people will work together to move it for you.Desperation has already begun.

He Zhongqing was still digging non-stop, her thin body seemed to be likely to collapse at any time.

"Zhong Qing, take a rest." Zhao Lan advised her.

He Zhongqing just shook his head.She can't stop, her Brother Fuyun is waiting for her to save him.

Zhao Lan sighed, but didn't know what to say.Even she can't bear such intense physical work. I don't know how a 17-year-old girl can persist.

Zhang Shijie looked at the fruitless excavation work with a blank expression.These, as early as he expected.

It has been digging for a day and a night, and the sun is already westward.Many people sat on the ground tiredly, sighing slightly.

"What is that?" A person suddenly pointed to the air and shouted.

A simple small umbrella dangled in mid-air. The blue umbrella fabric was very familiar. It was the sportswear they were wearing!

With a flash in Zhou Qiming's eyes, he quickly jumped a few steps, took advantage of a rock by the side of the road, leaped into the air, and grabbed the small umbrella.

When he saw the handwriting on the umbrella, a subtle joy appeared on his face that had been silent for a long time, and he handed the umbrella to Zhang Shijie, "Xie Cheng sent the signal."

"Young Master?" Zhang Shijie was surprised, and quickly took the umbrella. The writing on it was indeed Xie Cheng's handwriting—see you again at the parting place, "Does this mean that they found the exit?"

Zhou Qiming nodded, "The news can be spread, but people can't get out yet, and we need to rescue them."

"That's really... great." Zhang Shijie said, clenched his fists slightly, and he glanced at Liu Jun.

Liu Jun was extremely happy when he heard the news, and his joy was absolutely real.His purpose is different from Zhang Shijie's. He doesn't want any power, but for better survival. Luo Zongqiang is still alive, which is much better than merging with Zhang Shijie and the others.

"Then what are you waiting for! Let's go find them quickly!" Old Wang's face, which had been wrinkled for two days, finally relaxed. Perhaps it was because he was old and prone to pessimism, which caused him to have no hope of rescuing Xie Cheng and the others. At this time, I was relieved.

He Zhongqing's eyes couldn't help being anxious, brother Xie is alive, but what about brother Fuyun?

The crowd became excited all of a sudden, and those who had been lucky enough to do their part were also full of fighting spirit at this time.

Soon, Zhou Qiming led them to the cave that Xie Cheng separated from in his memory. The appearance of the cave could not be seen here, and all the trees were gone.

If it wasn't for the hole in the ground, they wouldn't be sure that this was the place Xie Cheng was talking about.

"People are coming." Xie Cheng said, and sure enough, a shadow covered the light.

"Xie Cheng, are you inside?"

"We are here! We are here!" Gao Yiyang yelled in surprise, and hurriedly looked out from the entrance of the cave, and met Lao Wang who was also looking in, "Master! Come and rescue us!"

"Hahahaha." Lao Wang laughed loudly, "You guys are miserable!"

"Is Brother Fuyun there?" He Zhongqing didn't care about her image and lay on the ground, poking inside hard.

"Is Cong Yun there?" Lu Nianzhi did the same.

"Here!" Ji Fuyun and Li Congyun shouted.

The sound was transmitted to the ears of the two through the five-meter-long hole, and their restless hearts finally returned to their normal beating frequency.

"Brother Fuyun!" He Zhongqing shouted, the tears she had endured for a long time finally fell, panic, despair and fear had been haunting her ever since she heard the bad news, she was so frightened that she trembled all over, she didn't even dare to think about any terrible consequences.

Ji Fuyun couldn't help being distressed, Zhong Qing must be very scared, and quickly comforted: "Don't cry, I'm fine, nothing happened."

"Well! I want to rescue you!" He Zhongqing wiped away tears, got up, and grabbed the bone spear to dig through the passage.

Zhang Shijie stepped forward at this time, arranged for his men, and began to dig in batches.

The people inside were encouraged and didn't bother to rest and continued digging.

The inside and outside were processed at the same time, especially when dozens of people outside were digging non-stop with bone spears, the tunnel was quickly dug through.

When Xie Cheng and the others walked out of the cave, they couldn't help being in a daze. The vision in front of them was wide, and the blue sky and high mountains suddenly came into view, as if they had passed away.

"Brother Fuyun!" He Zhongqing threw herself into Ji Fuyun's arms, she was suddenly overwhelmed by tremendous fatigue, and she couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed on Ji Fuyun's body.

Ji Fuyun hugged the haggard-faced He Zhongqing and couldn't help but feel extremely lucky, it's great that he's still alive.

Lu Nianzhi and Li Congyun looked at each other and hugged each other tightly. They still love each other.

Seeing that there were only five people behind Luo Zongqiang, Liu Jun's expression changed, "Boss Luo, where are the others?"

Luo Zongqiang, who was in a happy mood, heard this sentence, his face sank, and his words were sad: "I'm afraid, something unexpected happened."

They all consciously searched for other people in the cave, but they either found dead bodies or had no clues.Later, Xie Cheng also left an arrow on the rock wall as a guide. It has been so long, but anyone with the ability to move should be able to find the exit here.

Liu Jun couldn't help being silent, and his manpower decreased sharply. It seems that his previous merger plan must continue to be implemented, but...

"Fang Wei also..." Zhang Shijie didn't see Fang Wei, and his heart skipped a beat.

Xie Cheng nodded.

Zhang Shijie was stunned. Although he and Fang Wei had a normal relationship, they had worked together for many years, so he couldn't help but feel sad.He looked at Xie Cheng, but he didn't find any sadness on his face, and he couldn't help feeling a little resentment in his heart.Look, it's just a bodyguard, not worthy of his memory.Luo Zongqiang was still sighing, but Xie Cheng was so indifferent.

Fang Wei, your death is not worth it.
