Crossing the Western Tianshan Mountains

Fang Ya originally wanted to call Ling Fengxi to tell him about the situation here, but she finally held back. Maybe it was a nearby herdsman who just took a look inside out of curiosity.

It shouldn't be a worker.

After all, we have been in Xitianshan for several months. We have been together for so long that we have developed some friendship. No worker would be so unethical and unjust.

But Fang Ya still didn't dare to be careless and asked the girls to start taking turns on night shifts, which means that two girls were required to take turns on night shifts every night.

The lights are on in the office and there are sober people around, which is a deterrent to those with bad intentions.

That night, Lin Jinghui also noticed something unusual. He came out of his room to relieve himself and was heading towards the public restroom when he saw a man hurriedly emerge from the woods and run into the yard, panting. Lin Jinghui walked over to stop him, "Which team are you from? What are you doing out there so late at night?"

The man looked panicked and mumbled, "Lin Tou, I'm Su Binghe from Group 3. I have a stomachache..."

"If you have a stomachache, why don't you go to the public toilet and go to the woods?"

It seems that the grove is farther away than the public toilet.

Su Binghe said embarrassedly, "I originally wanted to smoke a cigarette in the woods and admire the moon, but I didn't expect to have a stomachache. When I had a stomachache, I saw a wolf nearby, and I was so scared that I ran back quickly."

"Wolf?" Lin Jinghui was confused.

Although there are indeed wolves in the Western Tianshan Mountains, there are so many people stationed where they are currently, and they don't raise sheep or other livestock. This is the first time they have heard of wolves approaching the camp.

"Hurry back and rest. The construction schedule is tight these days. Don't run around at night."

"Yes, Lin Tou'er, I understand."

Lin Jinghui was a little worried, so he took a flashlight and went outside the yard to see if there was really a wolf, but it was very quiet around and there was nothing unusual.

The next day, Lin Jinghui told Wu Yongjie, "It seemed like there were wolves in the camp yesterday."

Wu Yongjie said, "That's bullshit."

Lin Jinghui said, "I also think it's impossible. I asked around, and nothing unusual happened yesterday."

Wu Yongjie nodded. "The project has finally been turned around these past two days and is progressing normally. We must make sure nothing goes wrong again. Also, assign a few more safety officers to Yan Zhuoyu. This guy, like Li Jianguo, is overworking himself. I'm afraid he might accidentally get himself killed here, and then it would be hard to explain."

"clear."

Because Yan Zhuoyu was afraid that any more problems would arise, he personally supervised the handling of the underground river problem, paying attention to every detail, and sometimes even did the work himself.

Other workers change shifts every two to three hours, or even three to four hours, but Yan Zhuoyu does not change shifts because he has to personally monitor quality and technical issues. At the end of the day, his body is covered in sticky sweat. When he returns to the dormitory, he doesn't even have time to eat and falls asleep directly on the bed.

Wu Yongjie finally discovered another problem. "There are too few technicians. Technicians are also human beings. How can we expect them to supervise everything from beginning to end? No one can handle this."

Just when I was worrying about this, I suddenly saw a man carrying luggage appear in the cafeteria courtyard while having breakfast.

Someone quickly ran to report to Wu Yongjie, "Captain Wu, Li Jianguo is back!"

Everyone was familiar with Li Jianguo, and the workers gathered around to greet him. "Commander Li, it's been a long time since we last met. You're finally back. How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Yes, Commander Li, we are all looking forward to your return."

Wu Yongjie rushed out of the cafeteria and saw Li Jianguo, a tall, thin man wearing glasses and with a clean complexion. The weathered look he had acquired from his trip to the Western Tianshan Mountains had faded, revealing his youthful appearance.

He walked over and patted Li Jianguo's arm hard. "You kid, you still remember to come back to see us. Not bad, not bad. Have you fully recovered?"

Li Jianguo smiled and said, "Captain Wu, I'm not here to see you, I'm here to rejoin the team."

"Return to the team?"

"Yes, I didn't agree with the previous instructions. I've already discussed it with my superiors. I'll continue to do technical support work on the West Tianshan Tunnel Project. Besides, I've suffered so much here, and I'm not willing to leave in such disgrace."

"That would be great."

After hearing the news, Ling Fengxi also rushed over to visit Li Jianguo, looked him up and down, patted him, and then said, "Good boy, I'm glad you're okay."

Seeing Wu Yongjie's disdainful face beside him, Ling Fengxi said again, "A strong general has no weak soldiers."

Wu Yongjie sneered, "Are you glad that there's someone back who's willing to fight for you?"

Ling Fengxi did not refute, but only said to Ye Minglang, "I'll treat you tonight, make some dishes."

Ye Minglang went to receive the order.

Li Jianguo was clear about the current progress of the tunnel construction project. Since he had been in contact with Yan Zhuoyu all the time, he knew all the details.

After breakfast, the luggage was not even taken to the dormitory, and we went directly to the 14th site.

Yan Zhuoyu walked out of the cave with the first group of workers who changed shifts. He took off his protective helmet and saw Li Jianguo. The two of them didn't say anything, but just punched each other's chest.

By this time, Li Jianguo had already changed into protective clothing, and when the second group of workers arrived, he joined them immediately. Wu Yongjie was still a little worried and asked, "Xiao Li, is this really okay? Don't force it. We want to complete the project, but we all have to be well too."

Li Jianguo made an OK gesture and said, "Don't worry, I can do it!"

Yan Zhuoyu watched Li Jianguo go in, then sat down on a rock. After a long while, he said, "Captain Wu, thank goodness Jianguo is back. If he had endured for two more days, I wouldn't have been able to make it."

Wu Yongjie said, "Go and have some rest, come back this afternoon."

Yan Zhuoyu was almost carried down the mountain by the safety guard. After going down the mountain, he went directly to the medical room. After Fang Ya examined him, she found that he was still too tired. In addition, he had been wearing safety clothes while working in the cave, which caused severe fatigue in all his body functions and even slight hypoxia.

So Yan Zhuoyu was given oxygen.

Ling Fengxi's condition would be better during the day. Apart from a slight headache and fatigue, he didn't feel anything else. But at night, he coughed very badly and couldn't lie down. If he lay down, he would be short of breath and cough violently. In the end, Fang Ya personally sent him to the hospital because she suspected that his pneumonia would eventually lead to myocarditis, which would be very serious and troublesome.

After going to the hospital for a check-up, it was found that I did have moderate myocarditis.

Ling Fengxi didn't dare to act rashly anymore. During dinner, he asked Fang Ya, "Is myocarditis serious? Will he die?"

Fang Ya said, "There will be no planned death, nor will there be a slow death, but death will happen suddenly at a certain moment."

Ling Fengxi said, "Sudden death."
