Cheng Yi's sudden question made Qu Qiuning stop what he was doing.

Looking up at Cheng Yi's half-bearded face, he saw a pair of pleading eyes.

"Difficult!" Qu Qiuning dragged out the last word.

"So there is still hope, right?"

Cheng Yi stared at Qu Qiuning's eyes excitedly, trying to get the answer from her eyes.

Qu Qiuning lowered her head and continued to apply the medicine without answering Cheng Yi.

Although she can perform such surgery, she still needs the assistance of high-precision medical equipment to complete it.

Those devices require the system to be upgraded to level two before they can be unlocked, and she herself doesn't know when they can be unlocked.

It's best not to give people hope if you're not sure.

Although Qu Qiuning didn't say anything, Cheng Yi thought of the scene when Qu Qiuning sutured the wound on his thigh.

He knew that, apart from Qu Qiuning, no one in the world could heal his foot injury.

"If you have different goals, why are you following us?"

Qu Qiuning asked about the doubts that had been in his mind along the way.

“No, although our ambitions are different, our paths are the same, and I am going to the northern frontier.

I follow you because I want to follow, it's that simple!"

Cheng Yi looked up at the starry sky, wondering if he could reach his destination.

But he will persevere to the end. He doesn't care if his enemies frame him or the people misunderstand him. He only cares about what his father thinks.

Although I have one leg disabled now, even if both legs are useless, I will crawl to the northern border.

“I don’t care who you are, if you dare to hurt Xing Lan, I will never show mercy.

As for me, I never do business at a loss. How about this? You will be Xing Lan's personal bodyguard until you reach Ning'an City.

During this period of time, I will provide you with food until you reach Ning'an City.

This is just a deal, okay?"

"it is good!"

Cheng Yi agreed immediately. He was really worried that Qu Qiuning would abandon him on the road.

What he didn't expect was that this woman would be so thoughtful in handling things.

"You guard the first half of the night, and I'll guard the second half," Qu Qiuning said, then got into the sleeping bag to rest.

Cheng Yi's long-furrowed brows relaxed at this moment.

What's wrong with a man guarding the whole night? Besides, isn't it a man's duty to protect women and children?

In the middle of the night, Qu Qiuning got up and saw Cheng Yi staring at the still burning fire in a daze.

"Hey! Take a rest! I'll be on guard."

Cheng Yi wanted to say, "Go ahead and sleep," but when he saw Qu Qiuning's serious face, he chose to shut up.

Cheng Yi found a big tree not far from the fire, sat on the ground, leaned his back against the tree and closed his eyes to rest.

It was a peaceful night. When Cheng Yi woke up, Qu Qiuning had already cooked the porridge.

When the three of them were drinking porridge from their bowls, Pang Ya came over with a basket, followed by Gu Nanxuan.

"Sister Qiu Ning, I brought you some food."

Pang Ya brought out a big bowl of wild vegetable porridge, but when she saw the white rice porridge in Qu Qiuning's bowl, she looked embarrassed.

"Sister Qiu Ning, look at this..."

Qu Qiuning stood up and walked to the backpack, reached into the basket, took out a small cloth bag of rice, walked to Pang Ya and handed it to her.

"Take it back and make porridge for your father and his family. Don't refuse.

I still have some, don't worry! Go back!"

Pang Ya took the bag of rice from Qu Qiuning's hand and tears fell.

In the past, she often brought food to Qu Qiuning, but now Qu Qiuning brings food to her.

"Ning'er, if someone bullies you, tell me and I'll beat him up."

Gu Nanxuan looked at Cheng Yi with displeasure in his eyes.

"Brother, what are you talking about! Let's go!"

Fatty looked at Gu Nanxuan with disdain.

Fatty Ya knew that with her brother's mediocre kung fu, it was good enough that he didn't get beaten up, and he even wanted to beat up others!

Pang Ya threw the bag of rice into Gu Nanxuan's arms, picked up the basket, and walked away holding her brother's arm.

Cheng Yi looked at Gu Nanxuan's leaving back. The word "Ning'er" just now made his heart tremble slightly.

After breakfast, the villagers started another day of long journey.

Once you get deep into the jungle, you'll see lush trees and many thorns, and sometimes you'll see pheasant feathers and the like.

Compared to walking on the official road, walking through the jungle is much slower, only about twenty miles a day.

In the evening, after a day's journey, Qu Qiuning and the other two were exhausted.

Everyone would go together to dig some wild vegetables or pick some fruits nearby.

Qu Xinglan took out the pot to cook porridge. His small and thin figure made people feel pitiful.

"Hey! Keep an eye on Xinglan while I look around to see if there's anything to eat!"

After Qu Qiuning finished speaking, he turned and left.

Qu Qiuning walked around the area and didn't see any wild fruits, but found a pheasant feather.

Qu Qiuning was searching carefully when he suddenly heard a humming sound, like that of a puppy.

So we followed the source of the sound and found a tree as thick as an arm growing diagonally on the edge of the cliff, extending out for four or five meters.

There is a bird's nest and a snow-white wolf cub on the fork of the tree.

The wolf cub looked about two months old. It was motionless and making humming sounds from its mouth.

It turned out that the little wolf was naughty and wanted to rob the bird's nest, but he couldn't get down.

On the edge of the cliff, a female wolf, also snow-white, was walking back and forth anxiously, making humming sounds from her mouth.

Wolves are social animals. Qu Qiuning was worried that Xing Lan and the others might be in danger, so he turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the mother wolf discovered Qu Qiuning, bared her teeth, and had a fierce look in her eyes.

Qu Qiuning turned around and saw the female wolf grinning with sharp teeth showing, ready to attack.

Qu Qiuning slowly bent down, pulled out the triangular pyramid, held it tightly against her chest. She was confident that she could deal with a wolf.

Neither the man nor the wolf took that step, and the situation remained in a stalemate.

As the sky was getting dark, if this continued, Qu Xinglan and his companions would be in danger if there were wolves.

“How about I help you save the baby and you let me go?

I swear, I won't hurt you and your son," Qu Qiuning spoke first.

The female wolf slowly put away her fierce look, stepped back, and stopped beside a tree.

Seeing that the mother wolf had retracted her attacking posture, Qu Qiuning slowly walked to the tree, took out a retractable fishing net, and slowly extended the extended net to the side of the little wolf.

"Be good, jump into the net bag and you can go back to your mother!"

Qu Qiuning said to the little wolf, but the little wolf remained unmoved and continued to hum.

"Jump! I can catch you, jump!"

After the little wolf and the mother wolf looked at each other for a few seconds, the little wolf jumped into the net bag.

Qu Qiuning lifted the net bag like catching fish, carefully moved it to the side of the mother wolf, and carefully put the little wolf on the ground.

The little wolf returned to the mother wolf and was very happy. He kept rubbing his head against her.

Qu Qiuning put away the net bag, turned around and walked away.

When Qu Qiuning appeared in front of Qu Xinglan at the fastest speed, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Qu Xinglan was safe and sound.

"Sister, I'm worried about you!" Qu Xinglan ran over and hugged Qu Qiuning.

"It's okay, I'm your sister and I'm very powerful!" Qu Qiuning patted Qu Xinglan's back gently.

Cheng Yi was relieved to see Qu Qiuning return safely. This jungle was full of danger, which made people worry.

"Help! Help! Help..."

There was a commotion and screams from Pang Ya and the others.

Qu Qiuning pulled out the triangular pyramid and shouted to Cheng Yi:

"Look forward to Xinglan"

After saying that, he ran towards the camp of Pang Ya and the others.

Qu Qiuning stopped a villager who was running.

"Uncle, what's going on up ahead?"

"There's a snake ahead, run! Black girl."

Qu Qiuning ran over and took a look. Oh my god! It was indeed a snake, but this snake was very unusual, as thick as a bucket.
