Chapter 573: Laughter

"No, no." She was quick to reassure him.

Of course, in such a stimulating situation, any pain has long been forgotten.

In fact, now her calf hurts terribly, and the hat on her head has long since flown somewhere.

Junior General Li let go of her, and the backpack on his back had already broken a strap and straddled his shoulders diagonally.

In this situation, he could still hold his gun tightly in his hand.

Gao Yan couldn't help but wonder, what kind of training did Li Xiaojiang go through to get to where he is now?

Look at the slope.

They're almost at the bottom of the slope now, and to get back to their original route, they'll have to climb up the damn slope.

The problem is that it is full of tangled vines and trees, and the humid climate at the bottom of the slope makes these plants grow even more luxuriantly.

"We have to climb up from here."

Gao Yan looked at this slope and gritted his teeth to strangle Li Xiaojiang, didn't this bastard think about whether she could do it?

She looked at her thin arms and legs.

Throughout her life, she has spent much more time under the microscope than anything else, although she sometimes goes for a run! But that's jogging, that's a pastime.

Now it's terrible.

"Are you sure you have to do this? Can't we go down here, maybe there's a way. ”

Weak defense, even she can see that this place is a valley bottom, and if you want to find a valley bottom, you can only do what Li Xiaojiang said.

But she didn't want to, and she couldn't.

It was absolutely impossible, her body refused to move again, but she looked at him with her chin raised.

He didn't smile, but his expression softened slightly, as if he knew how tired she was.

After this exciting journey, probably a woman will be tired and scared.

"We have to move on down this path." He said, pointing to the slope ahead and taking her arm to urge her to cross the ravine in front of her.

She didn't care that the dew-stained leaves would wet her pants, so she could only follow him briskly, and God knows, the moment his fingers touched hers! It has changed her mind.

Although Gao Yan believed that she would collapse to the ground at any moment, he still obeyed his orders, grabbed the roots of the vines and stones with his hands and feet, everything that could help her reduce resistance, and twisted his body to dig through the dense foliage, and climbed up with great difficulty.

He cursed Li Xiaojiang countless times in his heart, a man who had no pity for the jade complex, did not treat her as a woman at all, he regarded her as his soldier.

But every time she wanted to slip off weakly, it was his strong arms that quickly tightened her waist to support and help her.

She finally staggered up the slope, and after a dozen meters of dense forest, the shade of the trees became sparse again, and the journey became much easier.

She touched her shoulders and arms, the new bruises and pain making her cringe.

"How far is it?"

"There's about fifteen kilometers to go. If my map is not wrong. ”

He looked back in the direction they had come.

"And the detour you need! We have at least twenty-five kilometers to go! ”

Gao Yan didn't need Li Xiaojiang to say, he could see it himself.

Twenty-five kilometers that is impossible.

In this extremely tired situation, she felt that even one kilometer was equivalent to a hundred kilometers for her, and now she looked at the watch in her hand.

There were still eight hours left before their agreed time, and God knew that her life was over.

She caught his suppressed smile, and the man could still laugh.

They hit the road again and returned to the route, this time Li Xiaojiang changed the route in order to avoid encountering the people who were looking for them! This means they need to walk an extra two kilometres.

He handed her something black, hard, and after she chewed it hard, it felt like some kind of jerky, and she couldn't tell, and she didn't want to ask.

After drinking some water, she finally felt better, at least her energy returned to her body, and her feet were no longer so heavy.

Seeing that Li Xiaojiang also ate a stick of that kind of thing, he silently took her and watched her silently forward.

He's flesh and blood, too.

Finally made her mentally balanced a lot.

However, after a few more hours of walking for the rest of the journey, Gao Yan felt exhausted again, her legs could barely move, as if she was walking in the water, the temperature continued to rise, even under the dense shade of the trees, it was already over 32 degrees Celsius, the humid weather made her sweat profusely, and they did not have enough fresh water to make up for the loss of water.

Gao Yan couldn't hold on anymore, and was about to tell him that she couldn't walk anymore, when he turned around abruptly and looked at her indifferently.

She wiped the sweat from her face with her forearm, too tired to speak.

Now even if he kills her, she can't walk, the only thing she can be thankful about is that she knows that this place is already very high, at least she doesn't have to worry about those people finding them, only they find them.

Without saying a word, he grabbed her arm and led her to a small hidden height, where there was a strange emptiness around it, but there were many large trees around, as if an empty platform had been deliberately set aside.

He drew his saber and chopped down some twigs to make a small clearing between the bushes, which was not an open space at all.

Then he pulled a roll of tarp out of his backpack and cleverly set up a small tent with the help of the surrounding woods.

"Go in and find a comfortable place to rest." He said to Gao Yan, who was standing silently on the side.

She watched in amazement at his almost miraculous movements.

But haven't you reached your destination yet?

If they go on like this, they may miss the plane.

She doesn't want to!

"Li Xiaojiang! We're not there yet......"

"We're here, it's our signal, I'll signal here, they'll come after dark. Let's go inside! ”

This time she climbed in as she was told, leaning against the trunk behind her, sighing comfortably and relaxing her aching muscles.

Li Xiaojiang also got into the tent and took off his backpack.

Suddenly there was a rumbling thunder outside, and she suddenly understood why he had gone to such lengths to set up a tent, apparently to shelter from the rain.

Of course, it's also so that you can stop by and have a bite to eat.

Because Li Xiaojiang actually took out a few cans like magic.

Gao Yan couldn't help but sit up straight and leaned over.

God knows when she saw these cans, her saliva was leaking out quickly.

And the loud sound of her swallowing saliva clearly pleased him.

He smiled.

In fact, there was no laughter, just two hoarse voices, but his flat and white teeth were revealed, and there were laugh lines around his dark eyes.

The hoarse laughter gave her a strange feeling.

He apparently smiled very little, life had not brought him many laughs, and she found that she longed to make him laugh a lot.
