"Don't worry, boss. I'm here to guard the place and won't let any suspicious people get close."

Sui Huan nodded cheerfully. After Hua Rendong walked a few meters, she patted her head and said, "Sister Erhua, a woman came to our family compound the day before yesterday evening. She said she was your mother and was driven away by your aunt. Yesterday, she asked many people about you. I guess she will find you soon."

Hua Rendong frowned. She was really looking for her. When she took away the pension left by the original owner's father and ran away with another man, she didn't think about how her daughter would live in the future. When her daughter grew up, she came to her again. Did she want to make up for it? Or did she have other calculations?

"Thank you, Sister Huanhuan. I will be more careful."

After thanking Sui Huan, Hua Rendong followed Xia Yu out of the mountain.

Hua Rendong apologized to Xia Yu, "It was my carelessness in my work that caused the mistakes in this operation. If this alerted the enemy, it would be my fault. If I have to write a self-criticism or be criticized, I should bear the responsibility."

Xia Yu glanced at her and suddenly laughed, "You just reported your findings. I was the one commanding the operation. If there was any mistake, it was my command error. What does it have to do with you as a scout?"

Hua Rendong was about to praise the leader for being generous when Xia Yu said, "I don't criticize people easily. Self-criticism is the most useless form of punishment..."

Hua Rendong just breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard Xia Yu say: "I will only deduct the bonus!"

This time, Hua Rendong's eyes widened. "No, boss. I worked so hard for a month, and this is just a small bonus. If you deduct it again, I will lose all my motivation to work. I will accept your criticism or writing a self-criticism. Can you not deduct the bonus? At worst, I can get you more liquid medicine next month."

Xia Yu suppressed his laughter and said seriously, "Well, since you have completed several tasks beautifully, the medicine is indeed a good thing, so I won't deduct your bonus this time."

Hua Honeysuckle quickly replied, "You can't deduct it in the future!"

This time, Xia Yu really couldn't help himself and showed his big white teeth. Hua Rendong then realized that he had been fooled. He snorted, quickened his pace and left Xia Yu behind.

Seeing that the little girl was angry, Xia Yu stopped teasing her and caught up with her to ask, "You said you are so good at making money, why do you still take your salary so seriously? You can earn more than that just by selling something."

Hua Rendong asked curiously, "You don't care about salary? Then why do you work? Don't tell me you love it, then why do you want salary? How come you are not selflessly contributing?"

Xia Yu laughed out loud at what she said: "Yeah, who would complain about too much money? If you really don't pay him, he will quit his job."

Dedication is fine, but for him, there is no such thing as selflessness.

When they were almost at the foot of the mountain, Hua Honeysuckle used her special powers to investigate. The area around the radio station was very quiet, with no signs of being tampered with.

I was relieved that I hadn't alerted the enemy. But I didn't know how long I would have to wait.

When will we be able to catch all these damn bad guys?

During the day, the two of them did not open the quilt. With Hua Honeysuckle's special ability, they no longer had to stay so close to the cave where the radio station was located as they had been with Sui Yong before.

The two of them hid in the grass more than 100 meters away from the cave. As long as someone passed by within a radius of 200 meters, Honeysuckle could detect it.

They waited until the sun set. During that time, Xia Yu went down the mountain and brought back two roasted chickens. The two of them enjoyed the meal happily.

The mountains after dark were eerie in their silence. If it were Honeysuckle in her previous life, she would definitely not dare to stay in the mountains, but in this life, she had supernatural powers and even became braver.

Especially Xia Yu who was beside him. Although he always looked unreliable, it had to be said that having him around did make people feel at ease.

Especially, I don’t have to worry about food and drink, which is really considerate.

While Xia Yu was out looking for food, Hua Rendong entered the space to ask about Xu Xixi's situation. She had already sent her several copies of the materials for making the elixir, but she didn't know if she had succeeded in making the elixir.

But there was no reply from the other side, and the items placed in the trading grid remained motionless, which made Hua Rendong feel uneasy. She didn't know if Xu Xixi made the elixir and something went wrong after taking it, otherwise why didn't she get any news for so long.

Or is it that Xixi is depressed because she failed to make the elixir?

But there was no point in being anxious. Hua Rendong found opportunities to enter the space several times every day, but there was no movement from Xu Xixi.

Hua Rendong became more and more anxious, fearing that Xu Xixi would not be able to survive the pain of forming spiritual roots after taking the spiritual pill.

The ambush lasted on the mountain for five days. It was the first time for Hua Rendong to carry out such a long mission. In addition, there had been no news from Xu Xixi, so she was inevitably in a restless mood. But seeing that Xia Yu was always calm, Hua Rendong's mood gradually calmed down.

Things have come to this, and there is nothing we can do no matter how urgent it is. We can only pray that nothing happens to Xixi and that the mission is completed successfully.

Fortunately, there was not much rain this spring, otherwise if it rained again, the two of them would not even have a place to shelter from the rain in the mountains, which would be torture.

Who knew that just after I finished feeling thankful, I felt a chill on my face. Fine raindrops fell on my face, making me feel hazy and damp.

Hua Honeysuckle secretly cried out "Oh no!" Should she take out her rain gear now?

Xia Yu had already started to cut the branches, and Hua Honeysuckle hurried forward to help. He used his special ability and a vine shed appeared between the trees. The vines were close to each other, and not a single drop of rain could get in.

Xia Yu took the freshly cut branch and silently threw it aside.

Honeysuckle said, "It's raining, so no one should go up the mountain in the rain, right?"

Xia Yu shook his head, "Be more careful, what if the other party guesses your thoughts?"

"It's true!"

The honeysuckle gave birth to a cucumber and a tomato, which were very refreshing to eat in the drizzle.

In the evening, the rain stopped for a while, and Xia Yu went to hunt a pheasant and roasted it directly with his supernatural power. It was the first time for Hua Jindong to eat roasted chicken cooked by lightning, and he thought it tasted good. It would be even better if the chicken could be stewed in advance.

The two were enjoying the pheasant and cucumber when Honeysuckle suddenly felt someone entering the range of her supernatural powers.

"somebody is coming!"

Xia Yu finished the chicken wings in his hand in a few bites, and Hua Honeysuckle also sped up.

Just as I finished the last bite of chicken, I heard the sound of someone walking on tree branches.

Through the gap in the shack, the two saw a hunched figure in a straw raincoat coming to the front of the cave.

Perhaps he didn't think there would be anyone nearby at this time, so he didn't even look around vigilantly and walked straight into the cave.

The man covered himself so tightly that Hua Rendong and Xia Yu couldn't see his face, but from his figure and the pace of his walk, they could tell that he must be very old.

The two looked at each other. After so many days of hard work, the fish finally took the bait.
