Chapter 122: The Woman in the Bushes

"You don't wear hazmat clothing?" Zhao Xi was a little anxious when he saw that Yan Murong was only carrying a satchel with some water and food on his back, and was about to leave. "That's not good, at least you have to wear a protective suit and a mask, it's too dangerous, no, absolutely not."

"Uncle Zhao, it's really fine." Yan Murong explained with a smile. "I also learned that this virus is not transmitted through the air, so I don't need to wear these things - do you see the villagers? These days they eat all the water and food you have sent them, so they don't have anything to do. ”

"Then you have to be careful." Zhao Xi said worriedly. "You don't know the power and speed of this virus."

"Don't worry, it's okay." Yan Murong said with a smile.

"Well—pay attention to yourself, and come back as soon as you find that wild fruit." Zhao Xi saw that Yan Murong had already decided, so he could only nod his head and admonish. "It's already afternoon, and it's dark early in the mountains, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back before dark, or will you be entering the mountain early tomorrow morning?"

"No, I've lived in the mountains for decades, and I'm very familiar with life in the mountains, and I know how to protect myself."

"Then bring a gun." As he spoke, Zhao Xi took a gun and two magazines from a soldier and stuffed them into Yan Murong's hand and said. "It gets dark early in the mountains, and the villagers have said that there will be some wild beasts on the mountain - you will shoot if you think about it, you bring a gun, if you encounter a wild beast, shoot directly, it is important to protect your own safety."

Beasts? Yan Murong thought to himself, he has been with the beast for so many years, he can clean it up with his bare hands, and he still needs to hold a gun?

However, seeing the worry on Zhao Xi's face, Yan Murong also knew that he was worried about himself, and he was also a little moved in his heart.

It is said that there are four irons in a man's relationship, and he has carried a gun in the trench with his father, and the relationship is very good, as can be seen from the fact that he has to marry his daughter to himself.

"Okay, don't worry." Yan Murong smiled and took the gun and magazine, put the gun on his shoulder and smiled.

"Wait." As soon as Yan Murong turned around and left, Zhao Xi stopped him again.

"I think it's too dangerous for you to do this—or I'll get two soldiers to go with you?"

"Don't." Yan Murong hurriedly said. "Uncle Zhao, you just wait here, I can talk about it alone, if there are two more people, I can't take care of it."

"Okay then." Zhao Xi nodded helplessly, looked at Yan Murong's back who had already walked away, lowered his head and thought about it, then walked into a tent quickly, grabbed the phone and called-

Walking alone on the path in the mountains, listening to the "rustling" sound of the mountain wind blowing the leaves from time to time, the corners of Yan Murong's mouth hooked a beautiful arc, and smiled silently.

This feeling is really intimate.

In the past, when I followed the old man in the mountains, I lived this kind of life, in addition to studying medicine, practicing qi, and practicing martial arts every day, I ran into the mountains to fight with those wild beasts, and over time, some people got used to this kind of life.

The air in the mountains is good, and the trees are greener than in the cities. Breathing in the fragrance of the trees, Yan Murong suddenly missed the old man a little.

"Huh? How could I have such an idea? Yan Murong thought in surprise.

That old pervert often abuses himself in a different way, how could he think of him? Shaking his head and smiling, Yan Murong walked forward quickly.

"Rustle!"

Suddenly, Yan Murong heard a slight noise behind him - he looked up at a tree beside him, and when he was sure that there was nothing on the tree, Yan Murong dodged and hid behind the tree.

The sound just now was not the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, but the sound of the grass on the ground being trampled on.

Turning sideways slightly, and then the cover of the tree trunk, Yan Murong poked out half of his head and looked at the place where the sound was made.

That place was a bush, although the bushes were not dense, but they were about half a person tall, if there were any animals hidden in it, they would definitely not be exposed-but Yan Murong breathed a sigh of relief, at least it would not be a large beast such as a wild bear, although even if there was a wild bear, he could deal with it, but that thing was relatively large, and it would be a lot of effort to deal with it.

With a gun in his hand, Yan Murong was more economical and hardened with his fists.

The bullet was loaded, the safety was opened, and Yan Murong walked out from behind the tree, but in order to prevent the beast from suddenly pounced, Yan Murong still walked forward in small steps, and at the same time, he also picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it into the bushes.

"Ouch." There was a cry of pain from the bushes.

"Huh?" Yan Murong was stunned, and his footsteps stopped.

What's going on? Ouch? How could a beast still make a human sound? And it sounded very thin, obviously a woman's voice.

Just as he was wondering if he had come across the legendary wild man, there was a sudden noise in the bushes, and then a figure stood up.

"Damn, how could it be you? Why are you here? Yan Murong quickly closed the safety and lowered the muzzle of the gun, looked at the woman in front of him who was rubbing her head and asked with a resentful face.

Rubbing his aching head that was smashed by a stone, Zhao Chen looked at Yan Murong with fire in his eyes.

"You're sick, aren't you? Don't you know who is going to throw the stone if you ask? And pointed a gun at me - what if I misfired? ”

Zhao Chen's squirting stunned Yan Murong.

Ask who smashed it again? Damn, who knew there would be a squatting person in the bushes? Animals usually hide there, what do I ask? If there is a bear hidden in it, do you have to ask what breed it is male or female? - Even if you ask, can the beast understand human speech?

Wait--Yan Murong suddenly thought, how could this woman be here?

"Why are you here? Your dad asked you to come? Yan Murong looked at Zhao Chen and asked suspiciously. Seeing that she took off her white coat and changed into a camouflage military uniform, Yan Murong was a little puzzled.

"Why can't I come?" Zhao Chen tidied up his hair that had been rubbed by himself and said. "This mountain is not yours, I want to go wherever I want."

"It's not." Yan Murong explained. "I don't care if you want to go to see the mountain god, but why are you following me?"

"Following you?" Zhao Chen pursed his lips and said disdainfully. "I'll go my own way, who's following you."

"Your dad doesn't know, does he?" Yan Murong asked with a smile.

"Do I need to tell him where I want to go?" Zhao Chen said angrily.

"I really don't have to tell him." Yan Murong nodded and said. "But you have to tell me why you're following me."
