Grandpa He coaxed in a low voice: Baby, be good!

Chapter 741: Saving a Dead Person

The mark on the tree trunk seemed to be a distress signal. It seemed that the young people had discovered something and were forced to move on. The mark on the tree trunk was a bit sloppy, so it must have been carved secretly, and they were worried that others would find it!

Haotian and He Lingting observed the marks for a while and determined that they were definitely man-made, so Haotian called everyone over and said, "There are marks on this tree, and I guess there will be similar marks. Everyone, pay attention. This should guide us to the right path. Also, while we are on the road, pay more attention to some dirt pits and haystacks."

"Boss, what kind of people do you think we might meet?" a soldier asked puzzledly.

"I'm not sure either, everyone please be careful!" Haotian didn't say anything else except instructing everyone. He didn't want his guess to become a reality, but the current situation forced him to think of the worst.

Seeing that Haotian didn't say anything else, everyone followed his orders and continued to move forward...

Haotian walked up to He Ting and asked, "Ting, what do you think about this?"

"Haven't you guessed it all?" He Lingting said coldly.

"You think so too? It seems that the person who made the mark is in great danger." Haotian said with a sigh.

"Let's wait and see!" He Lingting said expressionlessly.

"I hope there is still a glimmer of hope. After all, these young people are not very old." Haotian sighed and muttered...

Sure enough, not long after everyone walked forward, someone found a mark on the tree. In this way, everyone walked along the way, searching along the way until night fell. The mountain was pitch black. Not to mention finding the marks on the tree trunks, even seeing the road was difficult. Everyone insisted on walking until midnight with the help of their solar flashlights. The flashlights were running low. Haotian gathered everyone and said, "Let's not walk tonight. Let's find a place to rest!"

So everyone found a flat valley, collected some dry branches and hay, and lit a bonfire, not only for warmth, but also to drive away wild animals. Although there are very few wild animals now, we still have to be careful to be on the safe side.

Everyone spread hay on the ground, sat on it, took out a down blanket from their backpacks, covered themselves with it, and fell asleep.

Lu Haotian looked at He Lingting and said, "Ting, you should go to bed as well! I'll keep watch."

"You go to sleep first! I'll take over. You haven't slept much these two days since your wife gave birth!" He Lingting said coldly.

"Okay then, call me in the second half of the night and I'll take your turn." Haotian thought about it and didn't want to be humble anymore. He just lay down on the hay and fell asleep.

He Lingting sat by the fire, glanced at the sleeping people, then stared at the blazing fire, adding a few dry woods from time to time. His mind was wandering to Xiaomai at home. He wondered if the girl had slept without him by her side...

When the sky was just getting light, Haotian woke up first. He looked at He Ting who was beside the fire and complained, "Ting, why didn't you call me? I'll watch over you. You should take a nap while it's still light."

"Yeah!" He Lingting didn't hesitate and directly exchanged seats with Haotian, sitting back and closing his eyes. After a while, several soldiers woke up. They looked at Haotian and greeted him, then said, "Boss, we can see now. Let's get some food first, and then we can continue our journey after everyone wakes up and eats."

"Well, don't go too far, just look for it nearby." Haotian reminded.

"Got it." After responding, several people went out to find food. They were very obedient and did not go far. Fortunately, no one had been to this mountain before, so the products were relatively abundant. Although there were no big fish and meat, there were still many wild vegetables and fruits. After a while, several people returned home with a full load.

After a few people came back, everyone woke up one after another. They boiled some water, blanched the wild vegetables in hot water, sprinkled salt on them, and ate dinner with the dry food and wild fruits they brought with them. After simply packing up, everyone started to quickly hurry on their way again.

At this time, the sky was getting brighter and brighter. Everyone could see everything in the mountain clearly without the help of flashlights. Suddenly, a wild rabbit jumped out. A soldier quickly took out his pistol. With a "bang" sound, the rabbit fell to the ground. The soldier walked over quickly, saying as he walked, "Take this and save it for a lunch snack."

When the soldier was about to reach the rabbit, the hare somehow struggled to death, suddenly jumped up, and jumped directly into the bushes next to it.

The soldier went forward and dug through the bushes, trying to find the hare. Suddenly, he stopped what he was doing and shouted, "Hurry up! There's something wrong here."

After hearing this, everyone gathered around, "What's going on? Why are you making such a fuss?" Haotian also came over and asked.

"Boss, there seems to be someone here." said the soldier.

After hearing this, Haotian and He Lingting looked at each other and hurried over with cold expressions. It seemed that these people were really cruel and ruthless to achieve their goals.

"Alive or dead?" Haotian asked with a frown.

"I don't know, it looks like a woman," the soldier replied.

Haotian walked forward to take a look, put on a pair of gloves, and carefully dug the woman out of the bushes. The woman rolled out and lay flat on the ground. The blood on her body had already coagulated and it was impossible to tell what she looked like.

"She should be dead now! Boss, what do you think we should do? Should we just bury her and let her rest in peace?" asked the soldier.

"Wait, I feel like he is not dead yet." Haotian hurriedly stopped him.

When the soldier heard this, he also became interested. He put on gloves and pinched the woman directly. Maybe he was too heavy-handed and the woman on the ground let out a slight moan, but it was enough to excite everyone, because it turned out that she was alive.

Since it was confirmed that the person on the ground was not dead, everyone must have done their best to rescue her. Not to mention, thanks to everyone's efforts, the woman really showed some signs of waking up...
