At this moment, her steps were so fast that it was almost as if she was running. Therefore, when Wen Xuehui pulled her, Jiang Yao almost fell. However, after swaying twice, she finally steadied herself.
"Sorry, I was a little distracted." Jiang Yao apologized in a low voice. "I don't know why but I suddenly feel uneasy. Why don't we run a little faster?"
Wen Xuehui nodded and ran hand in hand with Jiang Yao. She turned around and saw that the two comrades behind her were also running. She didn't say anything.
It was a stormy night with thunder. It was obviously the hottest summer but at night, it was so cold that people couldn't help but shiver.
Jiang Yao heard Wen Xuehui's voice cursing the weather and the sound of broken branches being stepped on.
The night in the village was terrifyingly dark without the light of the moon. The thunder and lightning added a terrifying atmosphere to the night.
If it wasn't for the two soldiers following behind them, Jiang Yao wasn't sure if she and Wen Xuehui, two girls who were afraid of the dark, would dare to run on this small path at this time.
"Run! Run! "
Suddenly, there was a roar behind them. It was an unfamiliar sound. When Jiang Yao turned around in shock, a pair of hands instantly pushed her and Wen Xuehui out. In the dark, she saw a face …
A familiar yet unfamiliar face.
The mountain that had been washed by the rain for several days was no longer as firm as it used to be. After the huge earthquake, the mountain was no longer a mountain but a huge mound of earth.
That face was buried in it.
"Lu …" Jiang Yao looked at the mound of earth in front of her and wanted to go back in panic.
"Jiang Yao, don't go. It's dangerous." Wen Xuehui hurriedly grabbed Jiang Yao. She couldn't express the pain in her heart. "This comrade pushed us out at the critical moment without caring about his own life. He gave us time to avoid the collapse but he was buried in it …"
"Captain!" The little soldier on the side suddenly rushed forward as if he had gone mad.
Wen Xuehui saw that the collapsed mountain was still shaking, so she directly hugged the waist of the crazy soldier who was about to rush forward. "Hurry up, we can't go over there. Look at that mountain, if we don't go, we will also be buried here. In that case, if we all die here, what's the sacrifice of a company commander worth?"
"You're talking nonsense. There's no sacrifice. The company commander won't sacrifice himself. I'm going to pull him out!" That little soldier was so mad that he almost lost his mind. "It's all my fault. It's all my fault. When I heard the sound, I stopped and looked back. It was the company commander who pushed me away in time. But because of me, he didn't have time to run. It's all my fault!"
"Jiang Yao, what are you standing there for? Come and help me drag this idiot away! " Wen Xuehui shouted at Jiang Yao who was standing there and seemed to be about to go forward. "Don't be stupid at this time. Four deaths and one death. It's such a simple math problem. Can't you do it?"
This was not a simple math problem because the person buried in the mound of earth was her husband of eleven years, Lu Xingzhi.
The person who was least likely to appear here had actually appeared here.
Even though she resisted the marriage with him, Jiang Yao couldn't just watch him be buried in the ground.
