However, Lu Nianxuan didn't know that at this time, in the depths of the dense forest several kilometers away from her, Chen Peng's mood had fallen to the bottom.

Chen Peng, who deliberately slowed down and waited for Lu Nianxuan, kept the distance between him and the large army. By the time Lu Nianxuan found the road markers he had left, Chen Peng had long since lost sight of the large army.

At the beginning of the march, Ge Zhengtian, Yao Xi and Wang Zhigang were still accompanying Chen Peng, but Chen Peng's three-step and one-turn marching rhythm soon dragged the group completely behind, and almost couldn't even see the shadow of the large army.

Worried about getting lost in the woods, the companions persuaded Chen Peng that he should speed up first to catch up with the large army. You only need to leave road signs for Lu Nianxuan along the way, and if she comes, she can follow the signs. And if they can't keep up with the big army, even if they wait for Lu Nianxuan, everyone doesn't know how to get out of the jungle and reach their destination.

Under the persuasion of the three partners, Chen Peng temporarily agreed to their proposal and accelerated with them to catch up with the large army. But when they saw the large army again, Chen Peng immediately asked the three partners to go with the large army first, leaving markers along the way, while he himself had to continue to wait for Lu Nianxuan; He was convinced that she would come, and that she would need his answer.

After some arguments, seeing that the shadow of the large army was hidden in the dense forest again, Ge Zhengtian, Yao Xi and Wang Zhigang had no choice but to follow Chen Peng's proposal to find the direction in which the large army disappeared and chased after it, while Chen Peng began a long wait in a sparsely wooded forest meadow.

Waiting for Lu Nianxuan's arrival alone is no stranger to Chen Peng. Speaking of which, from entering kindergarten to graduating with a doctorate, the two of them are either in the same school, or in the same class, or with the same tutor, they are definitely childhood sweethearts, and their fate is not shallow.

More than 20 years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the scenes of waiting for Lu Nianxuan stored in Chen Peng's mind have long been so many that even he can't think of how many there are. But none of those waits in the past made Chen Peng feel anxious and uneasy like this time, like sitting on pins and needles. However, this is not surprising. After all, whether it is waiting for Lu Nianxuan to go downstairs to play, go to school together, go home together, or go to dinner together, or travel together, Chen Peng has never waited for Lu Nianxuan to appear alone in an environment far away from human society, and he doesn't have to worry that after Lu Nianxuan fails to make an appointment, it will be difficult for the two to see each other again.

As the sun set in the west, Chen Peng's inner anxiety and uneasiness continued to amplify and ferment in the ever-lengthening shadows of the trees and the roaring wind around him. Finally, it turned into one over and over again, "Nian Xuan, why haven't you come yet?" "Murmur.

The murmur that went unanswered over and over again intensified Chen Peng's restless mood little by little. Eventually, in extreme uneasiness, Chen Peng hallucinated. felt that Lu Nianxuan must be in the incomprehensible dense forest ahead, just as anxiously as he was, looking forward to their reunion. So, Chen Peng finally shouted towards the dense forest: "Lu Nianxuan! I'm here! Come here! ”

However, Chen Peng's shouts over and over again in the dense forest did not get any response except for a few animal cries.

After a shout, Chen Peng, whose mouth was dry, exhausted and disappointed, could only lie down on the grass with a sigh.

Before Chen Peng's fatigue subsided, the black shadow of the tree had quietly climbed to his face, rising to the treetops of the forest to the west, and the blue sky was also dyed with a dim red. Chen Peng, who originally only had Lu Nianxuan in his mind, couldn't help but start worrying about the coming night.

Alone, trapped in the jungle, helplessly watching the sun set over the mountain, letting the darkness engulf him. Chen Peng has seen such a scene in the movie, but he never dreamed that this would become his own personal experience.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shudder, sat up, and unconsciously set his eyes in the direction where Ge Zhengtian and the others left, but soon couldn't help but look in the direction where Lu Nianxuan might appear.

Just when Chen Peng was in a dilemma, he suddenly felt something wet fall from the top of his head. When he looked up, he found that the sky that had been dark a few minutes ago had been obscured by heavy dark clouds, and the east not far away had been shrouded in a hazy fog and had disappeared into the gray and black night.

Chen Peng's heart was not good, but as soon as he stood up, the drizzle like fog had turned into a pouring rain, so that he could only run and hide in the woods.
