Chapter 55 Jungle Escape
There is a fruit forest between the farmhouse guesthouse and the forest. To enter the mountain, one has to go through the fruit forest first. According to the speed at which Yi Jie and the others are carrying the patient, it will probably take more than ten minutes.
"I'll lead the way. Wang Yushan, you need to be more alert and walk behind to pay more attention to the situation."
Receiving Yi Jie's trusting look, Wang Yushan nodded. Fortunately, Wan Hefei was thin and not very heavy, so it was relatively easy for him to carry him on his back.
Yi Jie said no more and walked quickly towards the forest, avoiding conspicuous places according to her memory. Everyone followed closely behind her.
After passing through the orchard, Guo Zijia, who was carrying Liu Zhijie, couldn't hold on and almost fell down.
"Are you okay?" Yuan Jingyu was the first to notice Guo Zijia, whose face was flushed and sweating profusely.
"It's okay, I just need to take a breath." Guo Zijia shook his head.
Yi Jie looked back and saw that everyone was breathing rapidly to some extent. Yes, her body had been modified so that her walking speed was equivalent to running. She was so focused on reaching the destination as soon as possible that she forgot about this.
"Everyone, lend a hand to Guo Zijia and Wang Yushan. The entrance to the mountain is just ahead. We can't stop."
They had successfully diverted the villagers' attention to the witch's house. The fire was not big and they could put it out quickly. They would find out something was wrong and would soon find out that Yi Jie and the others had escaped. They could not stop for a moment and did not have much time to evacuate.
Yang Wenjun and Meng Jie stepped back to support Wang Yushan, while Yuan Jingyu and Jiang Yuan supported Guo Zijia, and their steps never stopped.
The fire in the wooden house here had been put out, and the villagers rushed into the house without seeing any trace of the witch.
The village chief noticed the sawed-off exhaust fan in the kitchen and the messy house, and his mind suddenly became clear.
"Oh no! We've fallen into a trap! Deshun, how many people did you leave at the farmhouse?"
"Except Dazhi, Quanfu and A'long who were slower and stayed there, we all came." Deshun recalled the people present counting the number of people.
"Stupid! Stupid! Go back and check quickly, we are being attacked from the east and west! Xiaowu, go to the bridge and see if there is any sign of anyone sneaking into the village. Someone must have come to rescue those students! And kidnap the witch by the way!" The village chief did not expect that Yi Jie and the others escaped on their own. After all, in his eyes, Yi Jie and the others were just a group of children, how could they be so powerful.
The witch in the toilet woke up in the stench. After seeing the environment she was in, she tried her best to make a sound but could only squeeze out one or two muffled syllables. With a sock stuffed in her mouth, she couldn't vomit even after smelling the smell. Tears flowed from the witch's cloudy eyes. Why did the heaven treat her, an old woman, like this?
If Yi Jie could hear her inner voice, she would definitely scold her for being shameless. Doesn't she know what bad things she has done?
Yi Jie then successfully led everyone to the mountain pass. The rising sun also wanted to help, so it popped its head out and added a bit of brightness to the earth.
There is no formed road at the mountain pass, half-meter-high weeds are rampant, and the ground is bumpy.
Yi Jie broke off a long branch and held it in her hand to explore the way and remove the weeds.
"Everyone, be careful and watch the road. There may be snakes and insects in the hot summer, so keep your eyes open."
Girls are all afraid of snakes. Even though they were very scared, when they saw Yi Jie walking forward firmly in front of them, they gritted their teeth and overcame the fear in their hearts.
Yi Jie and her friends were not too unlucky, as they did not encounter any snakes or poisonous insects, but they were all bitten by poisonous mosquitoes in the mountains and had a lot of itchy lumps. There were mosquito repellent bracelets for sale in the system mall, but if she took them out suddenly, people would inevitably wonder where they came from, so she had no choice but to feed the mosquitoes together.
They reached an open area with low grass in the mountains. Except for Yi Jie, everyone was on the verge of exhaustion and was struggling to move forward.
Seeing this, Yi Jie asked Chi Chi: "Chi Chi, help me check if there is anything dangerous around."
After a few seconds, ChiChi replied, "Host, this area is relatively safe, there are no wild animals."
That's good, Yi Jie thought, they have walked far enough, and the villagers are probably still searching for them in the village, so they can rest for a while.
"Let's take a rest here and replenish our energy," Yi Jie paused.
After hearing what Yi Jie said, everyone immediately fell to the ground or leaned or lay down, not caring about their image at all. It seemed that they were really tired.
"Xiao Jie, why don't you sit down?" Meng Jie asked Yi Jie who was still standing and looking around.
"I still have enough strength. Let's go find something to eat. We are all tired and hungry after a night. We need to eat something so that we can have the strength to hide later."
"I'll go with you!" Everyone said to Yi Jie in unison.
"It's too dangerous for you to go alone!" Yang Wenjun's eyes were full of disapproval, and the others also agreed.
"I'll just be walking around the area, not far away. I'll call you if anything happens. Wan Hefei and Liu Zhijie will wake up soon, so please take good care of them while you rest. Besides, it will only be more tiring for me to take you out when you are already at your limit." Yi Jie told everyone the truth in an unquestionable tone.
In fact, it is more convenient for her to act alone, and she can use any props she has without having to worry about people around her. Yang Wenjun and the others really need to rest.
"That's fine..." Yang Wenjun wanted to say something else, but Yi Jie touched her head and said, "Be obedient and wait for me to bring something back."
Yang Wenjun swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
After Yi Jie got away from other people's sight, she quickly ordered a mosquito repellent bracelet with an energy value of 10 and put it on her wrist. Mosquitoes within a radius of meters would avoid her.
She changed her magic shoes into comfortable and breathable hiking shoes before continuing to look for food.
"Chichi, will they remember that I used a lullaby to knock those people out?" Yi Jie suddenly remembered this.
"Don't worry, host, they will just think that I was confused for a moment."
Yi Jie breathed a sigh of relief. This miraculous behavior could not be exposed to everyone.
After walking for a few minutes, she saw a tall mountain peach tree not far away. The peaches on it were green and red and looked very delicious. She swallowed her saliva and ran over.
She took out the Flying Tiger Claw she had bought, hooked it, grabbed the rope handle and climbed up. After picking a pocket full of peaches, Yi Jie could only protect the fruits with one hand and hold the rope with the other hand to slowly descend. It would be great if the system backpack could store things from the outside world, Yi Jie thought.
"Host, if you want to upgrade the system backpack, you need 200 million energy points. The capacity will be larger, and both external items and system items can be stored."
"Forget it, forget it. I still owe you money. I'll consider these things after I pay it off."
"Come on host!"
When she was about to get close to the team, Yi Jie took back the props and saw Wan Hefei and Liu Zhijie leaning against a tree. They had both woken up, but they had been poisoned for quite some time and were still quite weak.
"Yi Jie! You're back!" Wang Yushan's sharp eyes caught sight of Yi Jie's figure first.
"Well, I picked some peaches, wild peaches from the mountains. I tasted one and it was a little sour, but it's better than nothing." Yi Jie walked to the middle and put the peach in her pocket.
"Xiao Jie, are you okay?" Yang Wenjun pulled Yi Jie up and looked her up and down. The people around them also looked at her with concern.
"I'm fine. Go eat the peach!" Yi Jie pointed at the peach on the ground.
Everyone happily picked up the peaches and rubbed them on their bodies without paying attention to whether they were washed or not, and just put them into their mouths.
Yi Jie walked up to Wan Hefei and the other man and squatted down.
"How are you two feeling?"
"Much better, but I still feel a little dizzy." Wan Hefei forced a smile.
Liu Zhijie lowered his head. After waking up and listening to what his classmates said, he felt guilty. If he hadn't been ignorant of the immensity of the world, he wouldn't have put everyone in such danger.
"I'm... sorry." He stammered.
"Just take it as a warning, and don't make the same mistake again next time, otherwise no one will come to save you." Yi Jie knew that Liu Zhijie must be feeling bad, so she spoke in a relaxed manner without saying harsh words. He would also reflect on it in his heart after suffering this pain.
"I... I will, thank you, I am too ignorant." Liu Zhijie seemed like a helpless child at this moment.
Yi Jie patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, don't think too much about it. Our top priority is to fill our stomachs and wait for rescue."
Wang Yushan threw a few peaches to them and said, "Eat them quickly, they are very juicy."
Yi Jie sat in the middle of the group and told her classmates everything she had seen in the landlord's house, as well as the activities of the witch and her friends.
Everyone got goosebumps after hearing this; such a shocking fact was truly unheard of.
"Are they still human?" Guo Zijia pounded the ground heavily.
"It has already turned into a devil." Yuan Jingyu whispered while stroking the peach in her hand.
Jiang Yuan's eyes were full of admiration. "Yi Jie, you are so brave. You have done so many things by yourself. You are our savior!"
Yang Wenjun and Meng Jie, two little fans, agreed very much.
Yi Jie waved her hand and said, "None of this matters right now. Let's escape first."
"I don't know what the situation is outside." Wang Yushan looked outside the mountain worriedly.
"The police will definitely be here soon, don't worry. We just need to protect ourselves." Yi Jie comforted everyone. An hour had passed and they would be able to get out of the mountain soon. The witch must have been found.
The people in the village were searching everywhere for Yi Jie and her friends. After the three people who stayed in the guest house woke up, they told the village chief that Yi Jie had escaped from the guest house long ago.
The village chief judged that this action should have been done by Yi Jie and his team themselves, without any external assistance.
"These students are quite capable. I really underestimated them." Deshun threw the cup in his hand to the ground.
"Okay, what's the point of thinking about these things now? Let's first think about where they ran off to. Did you find the witch?"
"No, maybe he was taken away by those little beasts." Deshun gritted his teeth and spoke sinisterly.
The villagers didn't think of the public toilet at all, mainly because these students were spoiled and couldn't stand staying in such a dirty and smelly environment for so long. It can only be said that the stereotype will make people lack consideration. If Yi Jie and the others can't stay there, they can put the witch in there. It's not them who are fainted by the stench.
"Village chief! Village chief!" A villager ran over, panting.
"Have you found them?" asked the village chief hurriedly.
"Er Laizi found the witch. She is in the public toilet of the farmhouse and has passed out."
"What?!" The village chief and Deshun could not stand steadily. The witch was a highly respected elder in the village and had always been respected, but she was treated like this.
"Hurry, take us to see it." The village chief supported Deshun, and the two of them followed the villagers with staggering steps.
The witch was carried into the guest room by the villagers. She was emitting a strong stench, her eyes were tightly closed, and the quilt on her body had been torn apart. Her face was beaten beyond recognition. If it weren't for the rise and fall of her chest, it would be impossible to be sure whether she was still alive.
The village chief entered the house and saw the witch's appearance. He was furious and said, "I will dig three feet into the ground to find those little beasts. All the women in the village should clean the witch and use the best medicine!"
"Yes!" The villagers answered timidly and took quick action.
In the police car.
"How long will it take?" Officer Ge was extremely anxious.
"It's in front, just in front." Gangzi was also very anxious. One minute later, Yi Jie and the others would be in more danger.
Seeing the broken bridge at the entrance of the village, all the police officers put on life jackets without hesitation, tied themselves up with long ropes in groups of four, and took turns to go ashore. Yi Jie explained the situation here clearly when she reported the case, and they came here only after they were well prepared.
The police were very agile and all of them were on the shore in a few minutes. Holding their guns, they approached the village step by step.
Officer Ge picked up a loud speaker and said, "Listen up, people of Changping Village. You have been surrounded. Stop what you are doing and surrender. Otherwise, we will take coercive measures. Once we catch you, we will not show any mercy."
When the villagers heard the news, they were shocked. Why are the police here?
The village chief was in a trance, but soon calmed down and said, "Don't make a fuss! Hurry up and get your stuff from home. There are hundreds of us. How many police can come? What are you afraid of?"
The villagers listened to the arrangements and took action immediately.
"Deshun, follow me."
The village chief took Deshun home and took out two hunting rifles. After entering this business, he was frightened all the time. In order to make himself feel more at ease, he used some connections and bought these two hunting rifles.
"Take your aunt and your wife with you, and the three of you go hide in the mountains. You take this gun, and you must protect your aunt. Please!" The village chief held Deshun's hand tightly.
"Uncle, what are you doing..." Deshun couldn't believe it.
"Listen to me, go quickly. There is no time to waste. The village needs someone in charge. I can't leave. You know you can go out to the other side of the mountain. Once you get out of the mountain, quickly meet up with the children outside." The village elder had tears in his eyes. He was determined to die.
"Uncle, I will listen to you. I will protect my aunt until my death! I will never let her get hurt even if I die." Deshun said with emotion. He was raised by the village chief, and the village chief was like his father.
The village chief watched Deshun leave, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the house with a gun.
"Bang!" Yi Jie and others who were resting on the ground stood up suddenly.
"Gunshot?" Wang Yushan asked uncertainly.
"It was gunshot." Yi Jie said heavily.
"The police are here to rescue us! We can go out now!" Yang Wenjun said excitedly. The others looked at Yi Jie expectantly, waiting for her to give the command to leave the mountain.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Yi Jie's face did not look good.
"Yes, the police will only open fire when a dispute breaks out. It must be chaotic outside, and the gunshots just now were very loud. The police's guns definitely don't make such loud noises, unless..." Wang Yushan continued Yi Jie's words.
"It's a homemade shotgun!" Yi Jie and Wang Yushan looked at each other.
"We can't stay here any longer. We have to find a way to hide and run away. They have guns in their hands. They may be escorting their relatives to evacuate the mountain. It will be bad if they see us."
The cheerful atmosphere immediately turned into a tense atmosphere. The sun was already high in the sky, blocked by the lush trees, with only a few faint rays of light shining through. Yi Jie looked up at the dense leaves and thick tree trunks and said, "Let's hide in the trees!"
