Chapter 517: Chapter 511: Found the Person Chapter 517: Chapter 511: Found the Person The snow pressed on the wound.
Shen Fei could feel the blood flowing slower from his wound, but it was still flowing.
“This wound is too large,” Shen Fei slumped to the ground, “We’re helpless.
None of us are doctors, none of us know how to stitch a wound.
There’s only five of us left, there’s no way to send word out.
It’s all snow everywhere; it’s too dangerous for anyone to leave alone.
And they can’t afford to take that risk after the journey they had.”
The snow had been falling continuously for an entire day and night.
When the hell would it stop?
If it didn’t, they may all die here, including the two wounded, who had just joined this year, one of whom was only eighteen years old.
Just an eighteen-year-old child, who had just reached adulthood.
If something really happened, what would his parents do?
And this generation mostly consists of only children.
If they lost their child, who would take care of the parents once they got old?
Gu Ning stood against the wind, with the endless white snow stretching out into the distance, as if no hope could be seen.
His dark eyes, like two black holes, could only accommodate the snow in front of him, white to the point of purity, white to the point of ruthlessness.
Meanwhile, Tang Yuxin and the others continued moving forward.
Along the way, they relied on the objects hanging from the trees.
However, as they continued, things they hung became increasingly peculiar.
Even the cotton from the inside of their clothes came out.
Maybe it was because the road was too long, and they ran out of things to hang.
They didn’t dare to leave them on the ground, because the snow was falling too heavily.
They feared that they hung too few items, and no one would see them.
“There’s another marker here.”
Lin Yile pointed at a tree.
On one of the tree branches, there was an arrow pointing forward, indicating that the person they were looking for might be just up ahead.
Yes, there should be no problem.
The group quickened their pace, almost sprinting forward.
Shen Fei tossed away the snowball in his hand.
The snow on his wound had allowed the blood to clot, but it was still an annoyance.
How come it was still flowing?
If it continued to flow this way, the blood in his body would run out first.
If the blood ran out, what would they do?
How would they survive?
As he grabbed another chunk of snow off the ground, he suddenly heard a sound.
Quickly throwing away the snowball, he pressed his ear close to the ground.
“Gu Ning, someone’s coming.”
“Someone’s coming?”
Gu Ning also strained his ear, it did seem like there were footsteps.
However, his hearing wasn’t as good as Shen Fei’s.
Shen Fei had a natural gift for keen hearing that most people just couldn’t match, which was why he was the best scout in their team.
If Shen Fei said someone was coming, then someone was indeed coming.
The footsteps are quite light, three persons, Shen Fei continued.
All are quite heavy, must be men.
The three men he referred to were currently walking forward.
“Teacher, teacher, someone’s coming.”
Another student who was shoveling snow suddenly shouted with surprise.
The surprise brought them to the brink of tears.
Someone was really coming.
They must be here to rescue them.
Perhaps their two colleagues have been rescued as well.
Gu Ning walked over, and as he saw these three figures approaching, he couldn’t help but feel his pupils contract.
“Women?
That’s impossible.” Shen Fei thought about the sounds he had just heard – they had to be men.
Women couldn’t be that heavy.
Even if they had one larger woman, they couldn’t have three larger women.
Their unit didn’t have any big women like that, much less three.
And besides, he really didn’t know who would come sightseeing in this kind of weather.
However, as these people drew nearer, Shen Fei was finally able to confirm.
These were three women.
Definitely three women.
Although they were all dressed in military coats, from their gait and body shape, it was evident that they were women, not men.
“Yuxin, we’ve found them, we’ve found them,” Lin Yile was pointing at a tent made of branches, canvas, and other materials, and she cried with joy.
From here, she could see that there were still people.
The tension that they had been carrying all along finally eased.
They had found them.
How wonderful!
They had truly found them.
“Good Lord, why is it them?”
Shen Fei rubbed his eyes.
He had thought that anyone could come, but never expected it to be them.
Gu Ning stepped forward, the shoes on his feet making crunching sounds on the snow.
He suddenly stopped in his tracks.
“What are you guys doing standing there?
Go and help.”
He spoke to Shen Fei and the other student.
Hadn’t they seen the girls carrying things?
“Oh, I’m coming,” Shen Fei rushed over.
He was the first to run over and took the medical box from Li Jia.
Judging from the weight, he now understood why he had mistaken the girls for men.
Firstly, their cotton-padded clothes were obviously damp, which added to their weight; secondly, they were carrying these things.
When he saw what was inside, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Good thing these all were medical supplies.
Their injured comrades finally had a chance of survival.
By this time, Gu Ning also came over.
He brushed the snow from Tang Yuxin’s hair.
“Why did you come?” His voice was filled with strong disapproval.
“I feared there might be injured patients here and that we would not have enough time to help them,” Tang Yuxin wanted to smile at Gu Ning, but found that she couldn’t.
Her facial muscles were frozen by the cold.
Of course, she did not say that in fact, it was because he was there.
If it were someone else, she would definitely take the risk.
But now that they found them, she breathed a sigh of relief, almost wanted to burst into tears, actually she just wanted to smile.
In the end, she still remained calm.
Meanwhile, Lin Yile was prattling on about how they reached here, how they luckily found a small path leading here, but as soon as they stepped onto it, the path collapsed.
They saw the things on the trees and she was curious about why they hung socks on the tree.
Her question made Shen Fei extremely embarrassed.
Why hang socks, why hang socks.
The fact that he hung socks was already good enough, he had almost sacrificed his underwear.
Gu Ning had heard all that Lin Yile said, so Tang Yuxin did not need to explain anything to him.

But it was not the time for explanations.
They all remembered there were still the two patients.
Saving them was the priority now.
