Lu Yao's words just came out.

Suddenly, not far away, a blinding light flickered and interrupted her words.

"Chen Xu, look, there seems to be someone over there!"

She was stunned for a moment, then immediately pointed in the direction of the light.

"It should be someone from the search and rescue team, before I came to you, Officer Yang, who was in charge of your disappearance, had already notified them to come and support me. ”

"They found a lot of wolf blood from the cliff of the canyon, as well as the saber and flashlight I threw down, and they must have estimated that we could fall off the cliff. ”

"And surviving and searching along the lower reaches of the river is the most basic common sense in the wild. ”

Chen Xu looked at the light and casually explained:

"The international standard fire distress signal is three fires arranged in an equilateral triangle, we don't have to go so far, just take a stick with a fire from the fire and shake it in the air a few times, and they will know. ”

When Lu Yao heard this, he immediately ran to the fire, and according to his instructions, he casually found a burning stick, held it high above his head, and then shook it sharply.

Sure enough, after she shook it a few times, the bright flashlight in the distance flashed, indicating that a distress signal had been received.

"Great, we're finally saved!"

Seeing the lights move in this direction, she shouted excitedly.

The corners of Chen Xu's mouth curved, and with the help of the orange firelight, he looked at Lu Yao's happy smile, and couldn't help but think of the sentence she hadn't finished before.

What is behind the sentence "Chen Xu, I ......"?

However, since Lu Yao didn't mention it again, he was too embarrassed to ask more.

It's a coincidence.

Lu Yao was also thinking about this question in her heart at this time.

Just now, because Chen Xu let go and apologized, she was stimulated, and she subconsciously said: "Chen Xu, I'm ...... Actually, I like you!"

However, due to the appearance of the search and rescue team's lights, in the end, the second half of the sentence was still not spoken.

When Lu Yao came back to his senses, the courage he had just mustered up was like a deflated ball, and his mind was gone.

Turning her head, she saw that under the orange firelight, Chen Xu was sitting on the ground, supporting the ground with both hands, smiling sideways, looking at the search and rescue team members who rushed over from afar.

Somehow, Lu Yao also gently stroked the ends of the hair in front of her forehead, and smiled slightly.

For a moment, the picture seemed to freeze here.

Everything is so beautiful;

As always.

Perhaps, some words, unclear, would be better......

"Chen Xu, are you okay?"

After a while, Captain Li finally rushed over with the members of the search and rescue team.

Seeing Chen Xu sitting naked and covered in wounds, he immediately asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, but when I fell into the river, I was hit by the recoil force and injured my ankle. ”

Chen Xu waved his hand.

In fact, as soon as he came to his senses, he checked his system properties board.

The posture detector shows the following:

Hunger, moderate weakness, severe exhaustion, traumatic infection (rabies virus), severe ankle bruising.

The ankle joint of the human body is composed of articular cartilage in the joint capsule, and theoretically speaking, cartilage damage cannot be repaired in the medical technology of the original world, and can only rely on long-term rest to allow the body to recover itself.

But fortunately, in this parallel world, technology is more developed, and rabies has a cure rate, not to mention a small cartilage damage.

Therefore, his injury is really not particularly serious.

This is also thanks to the buffering of the river water, and the silt at the bottom of the river is soft enough that when the feet are inserted, most of the recoil is removed.

Otherwise, if the soil at the bottom of the river is very hard, then his ankle joint will definitely have bone cracks or even comminuted fractures.

"You are Lu Yao?"

Seeing that Chen Xu was really not in danger of his life, Captain Li turned his head and set his eyes on her again.

Lu Yao nodded and confirmed his identity.

"Okay, it's great that you're okay, I've asked the other search and rescue team members to drive the car over, 120 is also on the way, don't worry, we will definitely send you to the town safely!"

Captain Li glanced at Lu Yao, and then at Chen Xu, his face full of excitement.

To be honest, he has been engaged in search and rescue work for so many years, and he is very unoptimistic about this kind of woman who has been missing in the desert for three days and can still find and survive.

But what I didn't expect was that this Lu Yao really survived, and it seemed that he was not seriously injured.

Most importantly, it took them less than a day to find the missing person from the Lop Nur desert in a radius of tens of thousands of square kilometers.

All this, a lot of credit, is due to this person named Chen Xu.

This is also why Captain Li is so excited, because he really learned a lot from Chen Xu from tonight's search and rescue operation.

After about ten minutes or so, several off-road vehicles were driven up.

Lu Yao is okay, except for the wounds on her forearm and palm, which are more serious, everything else is intact.

But Chen Xu was miserable, his ankle joint was seriously damaged, so he couldn't stand up at all.

As soon as you touch the lower part of your calf, you will experience extremely severe pain.

This scene couldn't help but make Lu Yao's nose sour, and she was very distressed.

She knew that Chen Xu's biggest hobby was to go to the wild for adventures, challenges, and survival, and now, his legs were so seriously injured, if he couldn't stand up again, wouldn't it be ......

Fortunately, the search and rescue team was prepared, took out a simple folding stretcher from the car, and several people carefully put Chen Xu on it, and then sent him to the car.

Because Lu Yao was very worried, he asked to sit next to Chen Xu and help take care of it.

In the car, in order not to worry everyone, Chen Xu endured the severe pain while smiling with his teeth.

Alas, I really didn't expect that I, Chen Xu, would have such a day.

The convoy ran for about three hours before finally encountering an ambulance coming from the town.

So, the two were transferred to the ambulance by the medical staff, and in the car, Chen Xu may have been really tired and soon fell asleep.

It wasn't until early the next morning that they arrived at the hospital in the town.

At that time, the two were arranged for treatment.

Lu Yao's wounds were nothing, they were sutured with simple wound beauty needles, and then anti-inflammatory ointment that helped the wound heal.

Chen Xu's, it's not that simple.

In addition to the wounds on his upper body, all the ankle joints of his legs had to undergo miniaturical surgery, cutting open the joint capsule and extracting tissue fluid to prevent extensive inflammation and infection.

When I'm done with everything, it's already afternoon.

Around the hospital bed, Lu Yao, Wu Tong, Wang Liang, Yang Xin and others were already surrounded.

As soon as Chen Xu opened his eyes, several people immediately surrounded him.
