Chapter 136: Rescued
Now the mobile phone in her pocket is Mo Wenchu's only support, she takes it out from time to time to look at it, and when she finds that there is no signal, she will stuff it back in despair.
This went on and on.
An hour passed, and the rain finally stopped, but the phone was still in a state of no signal.
Mo Wenchu's whole body curled up in a ball, it was already six o'clock, although the sky had cleared again because of the rain receding, but Mo Wenchu knew that the sunset time was only one hour.
The phone's battery is only 25%, and if it can't be rescued within an hour, it means that Mo Wenchu will most likely need to use this 25% battery to spend the night in the forest.
Looking at the tall trees around him, thinking of the black snake that had just passed in front of him, Mo Wenchu's whole person shrank.
Spending the night in the barren mountains and old forests, Mo Wenchu couldn't imagine what would happen this night.
But now she has an ankle injury, almost incapacitated, and has no tools other than her mobile phone, and is almost powerless to do anything about the night that is coming.
When night fell, Mo Wenchu was cold and hungry, she curled up on the side of the road, shivering from the cold.
When Gu Jue returned to the manor, it was already completely dark, and as soon as he stepped into the living room, the maid immediately stepped forward in a panic, "Mr. Gu, Miss Mo, she hasn't come back since she went out at noon, and I have asked them to look for it, but it's been more than two hours, and there is no news at all." ”
"She's going out?" Gu Jue's hand that was taking off his coat paused, and he stared at the person in front of him.
"Miss Mo said that she would go out for a walk, and she wouldn't let us follow, I thought she would come back soon, but I didn't expect ......"
"Did you check the surveillance, and in which direction did you go?"
"On the hill, it should be in the direction of the observation deck. ”
Hearing this, Gu Jue immediately turned around and went out.
drove the car slowly along the mountain road, searching everywhere for Mo Wenchu's whereabouts.
But after looking along the road from the manor to the viewing platform, Gu Jue found nothing.
On the way back, Gu Jue took advantage of the high beam of the car and suddenly saw three pebbles placed on the side of the road at the fork in the road.
Gu Jue immediately stopped and got out of the car to observe the situation.
The appearance of three pebbles here looks a little strange, as if someone deliberately placed them here to mark them.
Thinking of this, Gu Jue immediately got into the car and drove the car into the fork in the road on the right-hand side.
Sure enough, as he had guessed, three stones would appear on the side of the road at intervals on the fork in the road.
Just when Gu Jue was full of hope, he saw the flash in front of him from a distance.
"Did you find someone?" After getting out of the car, Gu Jue asked the two people standing on the side of the road.
"Mr. Gu, we also found this place along the mark, but when we walked to the end, we never found any trace of Miss Mo, and when we came back, we kept an eye on the situation on the side of the road, and found that the stone mark had been broken at this location. ”
Gu Jue looked down at the three stones, and then shone the flashlight in his hand forward.
He couldn't help but frown, and then shone his flashlight into the woods on both sides of the road, "How far is this from that military factory?"
"It's about six or seven hundred meters. ”
Gu Jue nodded thoughtfully, and then carefully looked at the imprints under the tree, wanting to find clues from them, but because of the heavy rain just now, even if there were marks that Mo Wen had walked in for the first time, they had already been washed away.
"You keep looking down the woods, I'll turn back and look at another fork in the road, and if anything goes, radio contact. ”
"Yes. ”
After the two men were given the order, the woods continued on foot.
Gu Jue glanced at it a few times and then returned to the car.
Mo Wenchu was not familiar with this area, so Gu Jue felt that it was not very likely that she would give up the road and choose to walk the woods, and the most likely reason why the stone marks disappeared here was that Mo Wenchu suddenly reacted that this was a wrong road after walking here, so he turned back again.
It's just that the reason why Mo Wenchu didn't return to the manor on time is very likely to have chosen the wrong path at another fork in the road.
Thinking of this, Gu Jue immediately started the car and returned the same way.
At another fork in the road, he found the stone marker again.
A heart suddenly became excited.
Walking slowly along the dim path, after driving for a short time, Gu Jue saw people huddled on the side of the road from a distance.
And the dazzling flash also attracted Mo Wenchu's attention, and she raised her head to look in the direction where the light came from.
When the car stopped, he was still a little nervous, silently holding his phone, thinking that if the person in the car was a bad person, he might be able to hit him on the head with his mobile phone in exchange for time to escape.
It's just that this nervousness finally disappeared completely when he saw Gu Jue.
He jumped out of the car and landed firmly on the ground, Mo Wenchu looked at him against the light, and his eyes turned red uncontrollably.
Gu Jue stepped forward immediately after standing firmly, and frowned and half-squatted on the ground after seeing her injured ankle, "Why are you still injured?"
"I accidentally fell. It was late autumn, and the night in the mountains was exceptionally cold, coupled with the cool breeze that blew from time to time, making Mo Wen's teeth tremble when she first spoke.
Gu Jue looked at her embarrassed appearance, and couldn't help but take off his coat and put it on her body for her.
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Mo Wenchu to react, he picked her up and walked straight to the car.
Mo Wenchu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but thinking of the current situation, if she refused again, it would be extraordinarily hypocritical, so she simply gave up and let Gu Jue carry her back to the car.
The moment the door closed, Mo Wenchu wrapped her coat tightly and curled up in the chair.
"Did you see the stone markings?"
After Gu Jue got into the car, Mo Wenchu looked at him cautiously and asked.
Gu Jue nodded, picked up the radio pager from in front of him, and told the other people who were still searching in the forest that he had found Mo Wenchu.
"With this ability, I dare to walk around, and I am not afraid of encountering bad people and beasts. ”
After glancing at Mo Wenchu, Gu Jue started the car.
Mo Wenchu pursed her lips, and her tone was obviously weak when she retorted, "I have always had a good sense of direction, but I didn't expect to get lost today." ”
Gu Jue didn't speak, just silently turned on the heater in the car to the maximum.
"I'm sorry for your trouble. After the heater in the car was turned on, Mo Wenchu finally felt a little more comfortable, looked at Gu Jue's side face with some caution, and said.
