Chapter 254 Tu Shan Arrives
Chapter 254 Tu Shan Arrives
"Everyone, don't panic. Brother Ling Yang will definitely come to save us. What we need to do now is to accumulate our physical strength and stay in good condition so that when we escape, we will have the strength and will not be a drag.
Everyone is now overcoming it, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to return home safely."
Although chicken soup for the soul is useless, it is pleasant to listen to.
Chu Miaoling, who had been acting delicately and in all kinds of trouble along the way, is now in the best condition among the group.
She was the one who took the lead in finding this place. She was also the one who took care of everyone when they were injured, scared, and emotionally broken.
All the resentment that everyone had accumulated towards her along the way disappeared in these two days, and they all regarded her as a benefactor.
After hearing her words, everyone's latent emotions were suppressed.
"Dr. Chu, thank you. Without you, we don't know what we would do."
"Yes, Dr. Chu, I was rude to you before. I'm sorry."
……
One by one they began to repent.
Chu Miaoling was very generous: "It's okay, I didn't do well enough. This is my first time on such a mission, so it's inevitable that I'm not used to it. I've caused a lot of trouble for everyone. I'm really sorry, I hope you don't blame me.
We are now a whole, and as long as we move forward and retreat together, everything will be fine. Don't give up."
"Okay." Morale rose.
Qu Dai, the military advisor, frowned slightly and took another look at Chu Miaoling, who had taken over his duties. He felt that the difference between her past and present was too big and a little inconsistent.
"Doctor Chu, you are so capable, can you help us find something to eat? We are so hungry." The middle-aged woman licked her face and came close to Chu Miaoling.
The messy hair, dirty face, tattered clothes, and the stench all over his body made Chu Miaoling frown uncontrollably.
The disgust in my heart almost burst out without my control.
This woman is really annoying. She was one of the people who came back with the returning group but was not on the list. The couple, I heard, had smuggled themselves abroad hoping to make a lot of money, but ended up being cheated and had to beg for food abroad for several years.
When I heard about the returning group, I insisted on coming back with them.
From the very beginning, he looked dirty, smelly and unpleasant.
If their age didn't match that of the Jiang couple, she would definitely ignore them.
But after spending time with this couple, she found that the man was lazy and timid, and the woman was selfish and greedy. Neither of them looked like intellectuals at all, so she almost excluded them immediately.
Of course, although she hated the couple, she would not show it openly.
The people who returned home had a strong attachment to their hometown. Even though they didn't like the couple very much, they never thought of abandoning them. They even took care of them, tolerated them and tolerant them in many ways, just because they were compatriots.
If Chu Miaoling showed her disgust towards the two of them, it would definitely leave a bad impression on everyone, so she could only endure it.
"Sorry, I can't find anything to eat."
Li Qiu's voice suddenly became sharp: "How could you not find it? If you can't find it, how can you know that we can go back? Are you kidding us?
Oh, I'm going to die, I'm really going to die. You're such a great doctor, how can you lie to me? I can't live anymore, I can't live anymore."
The sharp sound echoed in the cave, making people's ears ring.
Chu Miaoling was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she could only patiently comfort him.
But the more Li Qiu tried to appease him, the louder his voice became, and the crowd began to get restless.
Jiang Yuanguo seemed to have just woken up, mumbling and scolding: "It's so noisy."
Like a switch being turned on and off, Li Qiu's voice suddenly stopped.
Jiang Yuanguo snorted coldly: "I have nothing to eat, I'm starving."
Li Qiu said cautiously: "No, Dr. Chu said she can't get it."
"Waste," Jiang Yuanguo cursed angrily, not knowing whether he was cursing Li Qiu or Chu Miaoling. After cursing, he turned over and fell asleep again.
Li Qiu shrank his neck, not daring to make another sound, and squatted obediently in the corner.
Chu Miaoling was so angry that she almost went crazy. She had grown up in such a big family that everyone praised her for being smart and capable, but this loser was the only one who repeatedly called her a loser.
Why? Who the hell is he?
The couple had been behaving like this all the way, and everyone was used to it. After comforting Chu Miaoling with a few words, the cave gradually quieted down.
Chu Miaoling walked to the side of Qu Dai and the other two with a wronged look on her face: "Brother Qu, what should we do next?"
Her eyes moved slightly, trying to get Qu Dai's comfort.
Qu Dai looked at her and shook his head, as if he had no strength to speak. He really had no strength to speak.
I hid here for two days, relying on the water dripping from the cave to survive. Except for Chu Miaoling who ran into the crowd from time to time to do good deeds and say a lot of things, no one else had the energy to speak.
Chu Miaoling bit her lip and lowered her eyes.
The cave became completely quiet.
Tu Shan listened to the whole process and originally thought that there might be spies among these people, so why not let them stay here for a while.
But looking at their miserable states, if she continued to stay here, she might really collapse. If nine out of ten of them went back, they would go crazy, and Old Master Zong Zheng might kill her.
It would be better to throw them all into the cave. Once inside the cave, no one can get out without her, and no matter how powerful the spy is, he won't be able to pass on the message.
The small body stood in the cave and asked: "Are you all resting?"
In the cave, the drowsy people suddenly opened their eyes.
Those who didn't know Tu Shan felt as if they were facing a great enemy. Within a few breaths, their backs were wet. All kinds of scenarios flashed through their minds, but no one acted rashly.
The only three people who knew Tu Shan blinked twice, unsure, then closed their eyes and opened them again to see that it was really Tu Shan.
"Ow..."
Three steady, iron-blooded and serious men suddenly howled and ran towards Tu Shan.
The two men held Tu Shan's short legs in their arms, one on each side. Qu Dai, the mature man in everyone's eyes, squatted in front of Tu Shan.
The three of them cried like abandoned fools, with tears and snot running down their faces.
"Third sister, it really is you. We thought we were hallucinating."
"Third sister, why did you come just now? We were almost bullied to death."
"Third sister, third sister, you are finally here."
Everyone... was inexplicably a little afraid to look.
Tu Shan...never knew she was so popular.
She felt quite embarrassed when she met the staring eyes of the other people in the cave.
"Hehe, well, my kids at home are ignorant, sorry for making fun of me."
everyone...
Chu Miaoling's eyes flashed, and she walked over slowly: "Brother Qu, who is this?"
Qu Dai wiped away his tears, took two breaths, and calmed down. He was not embarrassed at all.
"Third sister." Just two simple words.
"The third sister from Zhoucheng?" A puzzled voice came from the crowd.
Qu Dai nodded.
Everyone was slightly startled. They had certainly heard the shout, but they didn't know the Third Sister of Zhoucheng and didn't take it to heart.
During the two days they hid here, Qu Dai and the other two never talked about this matter.
So, when a real person appeared in front of me, I still felt a little disillusioned.
Chu Miaoling frowned slightly: "I haven't heard of the Third Sister of Zhoucheng, Brother Qu, there won't be any misunderstandings?"
It's almost like saying this person is a fake.
Tu Shan's gaze fell on Chu Miaoling's face. The light in the cave was poor, but it did not affect her vision.
Chu Miaoling's face felt very familiar to her, and it seemed to be three points similar to her previous face.
Chi Xuanxuan said Ling Yang was very special to her.
Tu Shan felt that Ling Yang had treated her very specially in the past. She originally thought that she was the only one who had this honor, but now it seemed that was not the case.
So, was her previous honor due to the fact that her face was somewhat similar to Chu Miaoling's?
Not sure, let’s have another look.
