2 Help!! (2/2)

Xia Lian continued moving forward in the hope of finding at least one person.

After walking for an hour she found a faint silhouette coming out from woods. He probably did not notice her as he started walking with his back towards her.

She found him wearing a veiled bamboo hat and carrying an axe. He seemed like an ordinary villager. After contemplating for a while and making sure that he seemed harmless, Xia Lian came to a quick decision in her heart as her face immediately lit up and she cried out loudly ” Help!”

But, the man did not seem to notice her as he did not stop walking.

Xia Lian started to run while shouting at the same time ignoring her heavy injuries. The man was walking at an unhurried pace but Xia Lian found it difficult to keep up with him as she was currently running like a snail.

” Sir, wait!”

Still, the man was not able to hear clearly. The man on the front furrowed his brows but he did not stop walking.

'Did someone call me ?' he wondered as he thought that he was imagining things.

On seeing that he was not responding to her shouts, she had a ridiculous thought ' What if he's deaf??'

But the thought did not even humor her in the least, as her face was filled with complete horror. She observed the distance between the man and her. No matter how hard she tries, she understood that she cannot cover up such long distance in her current physical state. She had only one option: Use all her energy to shout.. If he still cannot hear, then he is deaf. Xia Lian prayed hard for the second possibility not to turn true. She cannot even begin to imagine her situation, if the man is deaf.

She shook her head to drive away all the pessimistic thoughts from her 1.2 kg brain. ' Be positive and think positive' she reminded herself as she prepared herself to shout out loud this time.

” Sir!!” Xia Lian used every ounce of her energy in this shout.

The man immediately turned around and saw an injured girl running towards him. He immediately quickened his steps towards her.

When the man reached in front of her Xia Lian immediately handed her brother to him and pleaded ” Sir, please help me carry him to a doctor. His body is burning.”
