Time seemed to freeze at this moment, every second filled with agony and anticipation. Despite disagreements, the Security Bureau and Special Forces personnel shared a common purpose: to rescue their missing teammates and to protect the tranquility and peace of this land. They knew that in this battle against the miasma and the unknown, they must unite to overcome all difficulties. Their faith was as firm as a mountain, their resolve as unwavering as a river.

The arguments gradually subsided, replaced by closer cooperation and a more resolute resolve. They awaited the arrival of rescuers, ready to set out at any moment. In the miasma-shrouded Shiwan Mountains, they demonstrated responsibility and commitment through their actions, and wrote heroic legends with their faith. They knew this was more than just a rescue operation; it was a test of courage and will. They would defend the dignity and peace of this land with their lives.

In a tranquil valley, the roar of rotors suddenly echoed from the clearing beside the camp. An armed helicopter slowly descended, stirring dust as it came to a steady stop in the sunlit clearing. As the rotors gradually came to a stop, the cabin door slowly opened, and a woman dressed in traditional Miao attire gracefully stepped out. Her vibrant attire and delicate silver jewelry made her stand out. This woman was the Holy Maiden of the Miao region. Her presence was a vibrant sight, bringing a new dimension of color and vitality to the tranquil valley.

The Miao people have inhabited this land of Guangxi for generations, their culture deeply rooted. Upon learning of the situation at the camp, the Miao high priest decided to send the Holy Maiden to express his concern. The Holy Maiden's arrival was not only to comfort the people but also to train this Holy Maiden, who had served for only two years. She carried the people's expectations and trust, and her every move touched the hearts of the Miao people.

Upon seeing the Holy Maiden arrive, many Miao people in the camp immediately began performing Miao etiquette. They clasped their hands together and bowed their heads slightly in a sign of respect. Bai Handing, the Holy Maiden of the Miao region, accepted their greetings and quickly stepped forward to comfort them. With her gentle words and kind smile, she eased the people's anxiety. Her every gesture, every smile, was as warm as a spring breeze, allowing the people to feel the warmth and care of home.

After comforting the tribesmen, Bai Hanning headed to the camp's headquarters. She walked in, greeted everyone present, and took a seat. She quietly waited for the others to arrive, ready to discuss the next steps. The atmosphere inside the headquarters was solemn yet orderly, as everyone prepared for the upcoming meeting.

A few minutes later, as the roar faded, another attack helicopter slowly descended onto the camp's open grounds. The hatch slowly opened, and two practitioners emerged from the helicopter. One wore a yellow cassock, six scars clearly visible on his head, signaling his status as a Buddhist. The other wore a Bagua Taoist robe and a Taoist hat. He held a whisk in his right hand and a compass in his left, signaling his status as a Taoist. They walked with determined steps toward the command center.

As they entered the headquarters, they immediately sensed the tense and solemn atmosphere. They quickly and politely greeted everyone present and found a suitable seat. The man at the head of the group looked around and asked, "Is everyone here? Bai Hanning, Zijing, and Zhang Tianyi, who among you three is in charge of this operation?" Upon hearing this question, the three exchanged glances and shook their heads in unison. They had only received a mission commission, not any assignment of leadership.

The man and the others present immediately realized someone else was coming. Despite the somewhat heavy atmosphere, everyone's eyes shone with anticipation and curiosity. They knew that the wait might reveal the true leader of this operation, the key figure who had yet to be revealed.

Inside the headquarters, the lights were dim and anxious, everyone's faces filled with anticipation and tension. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, each second carrying an immense weight. Outside the window, the night was as dark as ink, the occasional rustle of the wind seeming to tell of an unknown secret. A suffocating tension hung in the air, everyone's heartbeats seemed audible, the tension almost piercing.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound from the horizon shattered the silence. An armed helicopter, like the brightest star in the night sky, streaked across the sky and slowly descended into the center of the camp. The door opened, and Ying Ni, clad in a white tracksuit, stepped out with a dashing presence. Her gaze was firm and resolute, as if it could dispel any gloom. Her presence was like a ray of light, bringing hope and strength to everyone present.

As soon as she stepped off the plane, Ying Lai's eyes were drawn to the scene at the camp. People, dressed in festive attire, sang and danced, their laughter filled with hopes and hopes for the future. This innocence and enthusiasm filled Ying Lai's heart with warmth, but it was quickly overwhelmed by a sense of urgency. She knew that while the scene before her was moving, the severity of the mission didn't allow her to relax even a little.

She quickly walked towards the command center, and the moment she pushed open the door, everyone's eyes were on her. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, as if even the air had frozen. Ying Ni felt the pressure and felt a little embarrassed, but she quickly adjusted her mind and spoke calmly, "Well, I'm Ying Ni, the person in charge of this operation. I know you've been waiting for a long time, so I won't say much." Her voice, though calm, revealed an unquestionable determination.

Ying Ni stood at the table, her gaze sweeping over everyone present. Her voice was clear and forceful, revealing unquestionable resolve: "The Security Bureau and the military will each send a few personnel, and we'll also need to find a guide familiar with the local environment. I'll give you two days, and we'll set off in two days." Her tone held both commanding authority and trust and expectation for the team. She knew that only close teamwork could ensure the mission's success.

She then turned to the other three, her eyes gleaming with determination. "Three, I hope that over the next two days you can provide as many items as possible that can help break through obstacles, such as talismans, bodhi seeds, and so on. We need all the help we can to face these unknown challenges." The three nodded in agreement, their eyes gleaming with the same determination and conviction. They knew that each of them would play a crucial role in the coming battle. Their support and assistance would be indispensable to the mission's completion.
