Blessed Daughter

In the pitch-black culvert, Xu Zhengyong was trying to dig out the mud and rocks blocking the entrance of the cave.

However, although these mudstones are soft, they seem to be endless. If he digs out a little, more will accumulate.

Because of lack of oxygen and hypothermia, Xu Zhengyong felt that he was getting weaker and weaker.

Wei Mingting said to Xu Zhengyong: "Brother Xiaoyong, take a rest first, if this continues, your body will not be able to take it anymore."

Wei Mingting sat next to him, and his breath was heavy when he spoke.

They have been trapped in this culvert for four hours. The air in the cave is getting thinner and thinner. At the same time, the damp and cold environment is also a huge test for their bodies.

Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong are both martial arts practitioners, and their condition is a little better. The three villagers walking with them have curled up into a ball at this moment, and the nine-year-old boy who is the weakest has already fallen into a semi-comatose state.

In this situation, it won't last long.

Looking at the three villagers who were weak and dying, Wei Mingting blamed himself a little.

Although he rushed to rescue people, he still didn't have time, and encountered a landslide on the way back.

Although they hid in the culvert in time to avoid being buried on the spot at the critical moment, it only delayed their death time.

After Xu Zhengyong tried for a while, he sat next to Wei Mingting in frustration.

The ground is wet, and sitting is uncomfortable, but when you feel dizzy, sitting down can relieve you a little.

"I don't want to die yet..." Xu Zhengyong said angrily.

Xu Zhengyong was upset, he didn't want to die, he hadn't fulfilled his promise to sister Ruoer, he hadn't been filial to his parents, he hadn't heard Xiumei call him a senior brother.

Are you really going to die here today?

"I understand how you feel. I don't want to die either. I'm not afraid of my own death. I'm just worried about my family..."

Wei Mingting felt uncomfortable at the moment, he didn't know what would happen to the Wei family, what would happen to his wife, son, and daughter after his death.

Xu Zhengyong took a look at Wei Mingting. Xu Zhengyong felt that Wei Mingting was very qualified as a military commander. He admired him no matter whether it was military, martial arts, or his love for the people.

But unfortunately, this man is not a good father, causing his sister Ruoer to be bullied.

Thinking of Wei Ruo, Xu Zhengyong said, "I still have promises that I haven't fulfilled..."

The family of three hugged next to each other, and the couple who still had a semblance of sanity felt that there was no hope of surviving, so they couldn't help sobbing softly.

Just when the people in the cave thought they were going to die here, suddenly a little light appeared above the cave entrance.

Is it an illusion?

Why is there light?

Is it a ghost messenger who came to pick them up and go to the underworld?

Because I have never died before, I don't know what it should be like when the ghost messenger comes to seduce the soul.

At this moment, the voices of several people came from outside.

"Can the people inside hear the voice? Mr. Wei Qian, Mr. Xu!"

Hearing the sound, Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong both stood up.

"We are here!" Wei Mingting replied with the greatest strength.

"Mr. Wei Qian, hold on, we'll dig a hole to rescue you right away!"

A man's voice came from outside, followed by the more intense sound of hoes and shovels.

Soon, the upper third of the hole was exposed.

Then a middle-aged man got out of the opening.

"Save those people first!" Wei Mingting said to those who came down.

The man nodded, and then lifted the unconscious little boy out of the upper opening, and the other people above responded and successfully rescued the little boy.

Then came the little boy's parents, and then Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong.

When they came outside, they realized that the rescuers were Wei Jinyi and Wei Ruo. Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong were both surprised and delighted.

The words "Sister Ruo'er" came to his throat, Xu Zhengyong held back.

On weekdays, no matter how Xu's parents corrected him, they would not change their words. Xu Zhengyong, who had the face and skin to call "Sister Ruo'er" when he saw Wei Ruo, did not say so at this moment.

At the moment of being rescued, it was Wei Ruo who saw the rescuer. He was the most excited and wanted to rush up to talk to Wei Ruo, but Xu Zhengyong knew that he couldn’t do that with the presence of outsiders. Once he yelled like that, it would hurt Wei Ruo. reputation.

Wei Ruo's gaze was also on Xu Zhengyong, seeing him looking at him excitedly, opening his mouth but not making a sound, he knew his intentions.

Wei Ruo was a little relieved that Brother Xiaoyong had grown up and would no longer act impulsively regardless.

Although Wei Ruo and Xu Zhengyong didn't talk to each other, the exchange of eyes was very obvious, and Wei Jin who was beside Wei Ruo also noticed it.

"Jin Yi, Ruo'er! Why are you?" Wei Mingting was surprised, but also delighted.

"My sister heard that you were in danger, so she came here with me to search and rescue, and it was my sister who discovered that you were buried here." Wei Jin also explained.

"Ruo'er, how did you find us here?" Wei Mingting asked Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo explained: "I thought about what my father thought at the time. If I were a father, knowing that there might be danger, I would definitely choose a relatively safe path to enter and exit the valley. Take the trail on the west side."

"After searching along the way, I found a dagger. The dagger was brand new and didn't look like a villager's thing. I guessed that this might be the place where my father and others were buried."

Wei Mingting's face couldn't help showing joy, he didn't comment, but the smile on his face revealed his mood.

"Let's leave here first and go back to the village to discuss." Wei Jin also ordered.

Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong are in good health due to their daily martial arts practice. Although they are currently in better condition than those three villagers, they were trapped overnight, the cold air entered their bodies, their bodies became weak, and they urgently needed medical treatment.

Coming out of the valley, Wei Jin also borrowed a villager's residence, let Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong take a hot bath and change clothes.

Now the roads to and from the village are blocked, and with Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong's current physical condition, it is not suitable for them to travel any longer, especially over the mountains. Therefore, they stayed at the villager's house temporarily until the road was clear before leaving.

While Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong were bathing and changing, Wei Ruo felt the pulse of the trapped and weak family of three.

All three of them suffered from the wind and cold, their bodies were hot, and their physical conditions were somewhat disordered due to lack of oxygen.

At present, there is no way to go outside to buy medicines, but fortunately, Wei Ruo brought a lot of medicines with him before going out, and there is no problem in temporarily stabilizing the condition of several people.

Afterwards, Wei Ruo came to the courtyard again and saw Wei Jin sitting at the small table in the courtyard, so he also walked over, sat down on the seat next to him, took out the medicine bottle he brought, and began to mix it.

Wei Jin also quietly watched Wei Ruo fiddling with the things in his hand.
