59 A boar runs into a tree (1/2)
Yang Xiaojin's decision to follow Xu Xianchu to the Jing mountains surprised everyone. Nobody expected that the first person to voice their opinion would be a girl.
But what Yang Xiaojin said was very reasonable. Too many dangers lurked around here. With a supernatural being around, he would make everyone feel more at ease.
If they were without the protection of a supernatural being, even if they did not venture into the depths of the Jing Mountains, they might not be able to reach Stronghold 112 safely either.
After a brief silence, someone else said, ”I'll follow too.”
”I'm going too.”
Suddenly, everyone decided to follow Xu Xianchu to the Jing Mountains. It looked like all of them were not dumb.
Just then, Luo Xinyu whispered to Ren Xiaosu, ”Are you going too?”
Ren Xiaosu was clearly taken aback. ”Why are you asking me?”
”I'll go if you're going,” Luo Xinyu said.
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. 'Sis, we're not that familiar with each other, so why are you trying to make it seem like we're super close?'
He ignored Luo Xinyu. Instead, he turned to Xu Xianchu and said, ”I'll go with you too.”
A bright light suddenly appeared in the sky in the distance. Xu Xianchu looked at the sky and said, ”Let's quickly get some rest. Since all of you have decided to follow me, we'll set off once it's bright. Now remember, the entire team has to listen to my instructions. If anyone still goes against me, I won't hesitate to go hard on you.”
He then led the soldiers to pick up some branches and lashed them into a stretcher. The soldier who got kicked could still walk on his own, but the one who was stabbed couldn't.
Xu Xianchu was actually thinking of taking the wounded with them. All of them had to abandon their vehicles now that a dense forest had suddenly appeared. If they were to carry one more person, it would be a great burden for them.
There was probably no one in the team that would be willing to carry the stretcher as a normal adult man was really heavy. Even some adult women would be heavy, much less a man.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was a little puzzled. Was Xu Xianchu someone who was full of positive energy or was he deliberately trying to win them over?
The injured Wang Lei was almost moved to tears as he kept saying ”thank you, sir” to Xu Xianchu.
When Ren Xiaosu heard his thanks, he got a bold idea.
After the stretcher was constructed, Xu Xianchu asked, ”Who's willing to carry him with me?”
”Let me carry him!” Ren Xiaosu stepped forward of his own initiative.
Everyone around him was confused by this. 'Ren Xiaosu, are you that nice?'
Xu Xianchu thought for a moment and said, ”Since you're the most familiar with the wilderness, you should lead the way from the front. Besides, you're still young, so I'm afraid that you won't be able to carry the weight of an adult man.”
Ren Xiaosu was starting to get anxious. ”No, I have to carry him today no matter what! I'll cut anyone that tries to vie with me to death!”
Everyone else was speechless. Everyone was dumbfounded. 'Do you even have to resort to threatening words to do a good deed these days?'
…
Half an hour later, Ren Xiaosu and Xu Xianchu were carrying the stretcher together. But Ren Xiaosu did not find it heavy at all. After all, he was extraordinarily strong now.
After Ren Xiaosu applied the medicine on Wang Lei, Wang Lei thanked Ren Xiaosu. ”Gratitude token +1.” When they carried Wang Lei, Wang Lei thanked Ren Xiaosu. ”Gratitude token +1.” Along the way, Ren Xiaosu showed a lot of concern to Wang Lei and kept checking with him if he was hungry or thirsty. With that, Wang Lei thanked him again. ”Gratitude token +1.”
