Quick mission: We don't make trouble

Wait until your mood gradually calms down.

Mother Zhu asked softly, "Yingying, are you hungry now? Do you want your dad to pick some strawberries for you? We just tried some, and they're really sweet."

Zhu Yingying shook her head slightly, indicating that she was not hungry, but just felt a little thirsty and just wanted to drink some water at the moment.

Mother Zhu was just about to ask Father Zhu to fetch some water.

Just then, Yu Bo came over with taro leaves in his hands.

He shouted happily, "The water is here! The water is here! Sister Zhu, drink it quickly."

Zhu Yingying carefully took the taro leaves from Yu Bo's hand, and then drank the water in big gulps.

Mother Zhu smiled and said to Bo, "Thank you, Xiao Yu."

Then, she turned her head and glared at Mr. Zhu fiercely, complaining in her heart: He really has no manners at all!

However, Zhu's father seemed to have completely ignored Zhu's mother's gaze, or rather, he pretended not to see it, as if what had just happened had never happened. He turned his head and carefully examined Zhu Yingying's injured ankle.

"Well, the swelling has completely gone down." Father Zhu nodded with satisfaction, and then continued, "It should be fine after applying the medicine again tomorrow."

Zhu Yingying said with a smile: "With you, the old Chinese medicine doctor Zhu, here, the medicine will definitely cure the disease. I can be full of energy again tomorrow."

Father Zhu: "You're still in the mood to joke. It seems you're indeed much better. However, don't rush to walk for the time being. Yingying, Dad will carry you tomorrow."

Zhu Yingying felt warm in her heart when she heard her father's words. She knew that her father would always care about her silently.

Yu Bo also quickly expressed his opinion: "Uncle, aunt, don't worry, I can carry Sister Zhu. I roughly estimated the remaining distance. At the current speed, we will be able to reach the foot of the mountain tomorrow. After we get down the mountain..." At this point, Yu Bo suddenly stopped.

Is it really enough to just go down the mountain?

If they really did cross over, what awaited them at the foot of the mountain might be a completely unfamiliar and unknown world. How would they cope then? These questions weighed heavily on Yu Bo.

Mother Zhu continued, "After we get down the mountain, we're going to have a good meal and thank you, Xiao Yu..."

Father Zhu echoed, "That's right. You should thank them sincerely."

Zhu Yingying noticed something was wrong with Yu Bo.

Only she knew what Yu Bo was worried about. After all, they had talked about this topic before, but did his father and mother know about it?

She looked at her father and then at her mother.

I whispered, "Mom and Dad, what do you think of this earthquake?"

Mother Zhu: “It was very sudden.”

Zhu's father retorted: "Which earthquake is not sudden?"

Mother Zhu: “You…”

Father Zhu: "Yingying, I'm not trying to scare you, but I think this doesn't look like an earthquake."

Zhu Yingying: "Yes, Dad, it wasn't an earthquake. We felt like we were traveling through time."

Yu Bo: "Yes, uncle and aunt, Sister Zhu and I discussed this before and we feel that we have traveled through time."

Mother Zhu was a little confused: "Travel through time?"

Zhu Yingying: "If we weren't traveling through time, and there really was an earthquake, would it be so peaceful here? Forget about the other people. It's impossible for so many tourists to just disappear. And if there was an earthquake, people outside would know about it and definitely organize a rescue operation. Even if the roads were blocked and rescuers couldn't enter the forest for the time being, there would at least be helicopters and drones hovering over the forest. But there aren't any of those, so what does that mean? And the scenery along the way is mostly unchanged. The only thing that's changed is the lack of those artificial things in the scenic area."

Father Zhu: "Yes, I had doubts along the way, and I always felt that something was wrong. I just didn't say it out loud."

Mother Zhu: "You always speak after the fact. You only say what Yingying said."

Father Zhu: "I'm afraid it would scare you if I told you."

Mother Zhu was not happy: "Ha, was I scared?"

Father Zhu: "You're not afraid of being scared, but this isn't as simple as going on a trip and coming back in a few days..."

Mother Zhu: "It's not that complicated."

Father Zhu: ...

I just feel like we don't get along.

so tired.

Seeing that Mom and Dad were really arguing, Zhu Yingying hurriedly said, "Stop, stop, stop. Aren't you tired? We still have to travel tomorrow, so get some rest early. As for the future, let's talk about it after we get out. After all, we don't know anything right now and can't explain it."

Yu Bo: "Sister Zhu is right. Let's take it one step at a time and take things as they come."
