I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

Lin Jin was about to turn the page of the book when she paused, not knowing whether she should tell Mei Likang now.

Mei Likang saw the embarrassment and hesitation that flashed across her eyes, and he was immediately filled with grief: "They both lost their lives before they even started a family. It's my fault for not protecting them well."

Lin Jin: “…”

Why this sentence again?

"Brother Fang is fine, but... he said that second brother Fang was in trouble, but I didn't see him on my way back. Maybe... he had his own adventure and was rescued by someone." Although Lin Jin knew that Fang Zhu was likely in danger, he still couldn't help but think positively.

Even though this possibility is slim, it is not that discouraging.

Mei Likang felt better knowing Fang Liang was fine. Thinking of Fang Zhu, he couldn't help crying again: "Fang Zhu is the youngest among the four of us."

Lin Jin looked at the man who usually looked as strong as a bear and was now crying like a baby. Although she knew that Meilikang was very sad, she inexplicably found it somewhat funny. She said sorry to Fang Zhu several times in her heart before she could hold back her smile.

Although Meilikang is still unable to move, it does not prevent Lin Jin from going out to explore the way. There are so many desolate mountains and wilderness here that even the system cannot navigate a way. She can only search little by little by herself and wait for Meilikang's injuries to recover a little before leaving together.

Lin Jin was exploring the way at the bottom of the cliff, while Fang Liang and the other two were looking for her on the mountain road several hundred meters high.

Fang Liang originally wanted to tell Zhuang Buyin the news and then go back to find Lin Jin, but he didn't know that Yang Muer didn't know about Lin Jin's affairs. Yang Muer heard everything he said, so he had to go back with him to find someone no matter what.

Qiong Yu did not leave that place and kept waiting for Lin Jin on the mountain, so Yang Mule and the others only found Qiong Yu but not Lin Jin. From the way Qiong Yu kept wandering by the mountain road, they guessed that Lin Jin might have gone down.

"Is she crazy? She's going down here without taking anything with her. She'll die if she falls!" Yang Mule covered his mouth, thinking that Lin Jin would definitely not survive. What's the difference between going down here and jumping off a cliff?

"She must have gone down to rescue the boss." Zhuang Buyin's eyes were full of worry. He actually felt that Lin Jin was probably gone and would never come back, but he still wanted to wait a while, maybe Lin Jin would climb up from downstairs.

"Is there a way to get down there? Maybe we can take a detour down there to look for Lin Jin and the others." Yang Muer gritted his teeth, thinking that he had to find Lin Jin and the others first, "Since Lin Jin is willing to go down, we can't just ignore them. The Uighurs cannot be disloyal."

Fang Liang scratched his head and suggested a possibility: "Maybe Lin Jin was captured and taken to the village?"

Yang Muer rolled her eyes at the beams and pointed at Qiong Yu beside her: "Are you a fool? If those people caught Lin Jin, would they let go of such a good horse?"

Fang Liang thought about it and it seemed to be the case. It was definitely impossible for him to just take Lin Jin away and let go of such a rare BMW: "My mind is confused, confused."

“Lin Jin!” Yang Muer made a trumpet out of his hands and put it to his mouth, shouting Lin Jin’s name towards the bottom of the mountain, hoping that Lin Jin could hear it, “Are you still alive?!”

The distance to the bottom of the mountain is actually not that far, but there are many obstacles blocking the view, so you can't see the situation below clearly.

When the voice reached Lin Jin, it was actually just a rough sound. She felt like it was Yang Muer: "System, did you hear Yang Muer's voice? Are they looking for us?"

[It is indeed Yang Muer. ]

However, it was easy for the sound to come down from the mountain, but it was difficult for Lin Jin's voice to be heard from above. She used the speaker provided by the system and responded loudly: "Yang Muer! We are at the bottom of the mountain!"

Lin Jin put down the speaker. She had already turned up the volume to the maximum. "Do you think Yang Muer can hear it?"

[As long as you are not deaf, you should be able to hear it.] All products produced by the system are high-quality.

Yang Muer did hear the voice, and a big smile appeared on her face: "Lin Jin is still alive!"

Zhuang Buyin also breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "From the sound of his voice, he seems to be not injured."

Both sides were looking for each other. Lin Jin found Fang Zhu's body on the third day. She dragged out Fang Zhu's body, which had turned white after being soaked in the river. The arrow in the chest was the real cause of Fang Zhu's death.

"System, I..." Lin Jin had always hoped that Fang Zhu was not dead, but now that his death was confirmed, she felt uncomfortable. She didn't dare to imagine how uncomfortable Meilikang and the others would feel when they saw Fang Zhu's body.

Fang Zhu now looks a bit ugly, and the foul smell it emits attracts a lot of insects and flies. Lin Jin is wondering whether to bury Fang Zhu here or cremate him and take the ashes back to Meilikang.

"System, what do you think would be a better approach?"

[Here I suggest the host choose burial. In ancient times, cremation had a bad meaning. Even if the host doesn't believe this, I still recommend burial.]

Lin Jin picked a place and started digging a hole for Fang Zhu: "How should I tell Mei Likang? I should wait until his injury is better before telling him. I am very conflicted now."

【Host, just follow your heart. 】

Lin Jin borrowed a straw mat to wrap Fang Zhu's body, then moved Fang Zhu into the pit, filled it with the soil he had just dug out little by little, compacted the grave mound with an iron hoe, and finally picked a better stone and placed it on top.

After burying the pillar, she returned the same way. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Mei, I want to tell you something."

"What's wrong?" Mei Likang looked at Lin Jin, as if he had sensed something, "Did you find the pillar?"

"Well... I have buried him. When you are well, I will take you to see him." Lin Jin was a little afraid to look into Mei Likang's eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't bring him back to show you."

She thought at the time that Fang Zhu was dead after all, and there were still a lot of bacteria on his body. Meilikan had injuries on his body, so it would be better not to take him back. It would not be good to leave him anywhere, so she buried him first.

But these people had a deep friendship with Fang Zhu, and she forgot to let them take a last look at Fang Zhu and buried him.

If Meilikang really wanted to see it, she was willing to dig out the pillars again, let Meilikang take a look, and then bury them again.

Mei Likang was heartbroken, but how could he blame Lin Jin? Lin Jin had already buried their brother for them: "There's nothing to be sorry about. You've been very kind to us. Zhuzi is dead, and he should be buried as soon as possible. You did the right thing, very right."

Because of Fang Zhu's death, Meilikan became unusually quiet in the following days. Lin Jin did not dare to disturb him. She felt that saying anything more would be an insult to both of them.

Meilikan's recovery ability was really good. On the seventh day, he could basically walk like a normal person. The two of them didn't waste much time. When Lin Jin was sure that his injuries were indeed good enough to continue traveling, they went out together.

Lin Jin took him to the place where the pillars were buried, and then stepped aside to leave the space for Meilikang.

Meilikang's eyes were slightly red: "Let's go and see if we can meet Bu Yin and the others."

"Yeah." Lin Jin pretended not to notice Meilikang's red eyes and continued on his way.

After walking for a day, Lin Jin and Mei Likang finally saw Yang Muer and the others. When she saw the looming shadows, she waved her hand quickly: "Yang Muer, is that you? Yang Muer!"

Yang Muer heard the voice and stood at the highest point so that Lin Jin could see him: "Lin Jin!"

When Lin Jin saw her, she finally smiled. After the others had gathered, she told them the news about Fang Zhu: "Shall I take you to see Fang Zhu?"

"Boss, you are injured. You and Yang Mule stay here. We will go and take a look." Zhuang Buyin looked at Fang Liang who was speechless and helped Fang Liang make a decision.

When Fang Liang saw the pile of earth where the house pillar was buried, he staggered over and knelt in front of the grave: "It's my fault that I didn't protect you." He made a sound similar to the howl of a wolf.
