On the first night of her marriage, she was hospitalized

Chapter 419 I'm so angry I could die
"Feeling? What feeling?" Deng Ping looked suspicious and gestured for Jiang Tang to move aside before getting out of the car again.

Standing beside Jiang Tang, shoulder to shoulder with her, they looked at the faint outline of the mountains in the distance.

There was a vague sense of familiarity about it.

"familiar?"

Deng Ping keenly grasped the word that flashed through her mind and turned to look at Jiang Tang, "Familiarity?"

She had never been here before, nor had she ever been to this area, so why did she feel a sense of familiarity?

Deng Ping didn't know.

I hope Jiang Tang can give her an answer.

Jiang Tang gently shook her head.

"I do not know either."

The sense of familiarity that Deng Ping felt was also felt by her.

Moreover, she also vaguely sensed a crisis emanating from deep within the mountains.

This mission might go wrong.

Realizing this, the two, who always loved to bicker, both fell silent.

After a long while, Jiang Tang finally spoke up, "Otherwise, you can stay outside and resupply at the supply point."

Deng Ping immediately objected, "You think I'm a burden to you?"

"No."

Jiang Tang's tone was different from usual at this moment.

She looked up at the mountain silhouette hidden in the night and said softly, "One of us has to stay. We can't both be wiped out."

It's rare for Jiang Tang, who is always full of confidence, to say something like that.

Normally, Deng Ping would have taken the opportunity to mock her, but what she said now was different from usual.

But now, she can't smile.

The mountains are too oppressive.

The invisible pressure made her lose all interest in arguing.

The two of them gazed at the distant mountains.

Zhang Xiangdong, who was not far away, saw this scene but did not know what had happened.

However, he keenly sensed that the atmosphere between the two women was noticeably different from when they got on the bus and set off.

His mood also became heavy.

.........

It took Xu Hui and his group an hour to drive from the mountain to the town at the foot of the mountain.

The mountain road was difficult to drive on, the road conditions were poor, and in addition, it was dark and the road surface was slippery after it had just rained.

When driving, you have to go slower, and even slower.

If you accidentally slip and fall, that would be terrible.

Therefore, they were delayed for quite some time before finally arriving at the town's police station.

At this time, there is no one on duty at the police station.

Xu Hui and his team searched everywhere but couldn't find the person. After thinking for a moment, he decided to go to the county to look for him.

Getting to the county from here is alright. Although it's still a mountain road, it's not as winding, and there aren't any steep mountain roads anymore.

However, this round trip will take a long time.

In the mountains.

It's stopped raining outside, and I can't stay in the car forever.

Not knowing when Xu Hui and the others would return, Zhang Xiangdong had someone gather firewood and start a fire. The eight of them gathered around the fire to warm themselves and also to prepare some food.

Military rations don't taste very good, and the quantity is limited.

They have time now and don't plan to eat military rations.

Eat some of the dry food we prepared before setting off.

Not far from them were the three corpses lying on the ground.

On such a night, in the desolate wilderness, surrounded by darkness, with three corpses not far away, it was honestly quite frightening.

Deng Ping found it very frightening.

She leaned against Jiang Tang, trying her best to hide her emotions and not let Jiang Tang notice that she was afraid.

Jiang Tang was tidying up the canned food she had seized from the bandits' den.

Deng Ping was startled when she saw this.

"You eat the food of the dead?"

Jiang Tang looked at Deng Ping with a puzzled expression.

"They're dead, and the food isn't expired, so why can't we eat it?"

Deng Ping...

She knew she could eat it, but she still felt a bit uncomfortable.

Does ginseng extract really not bother you at all?

"Disgusting?"

Jiang Tang blinked. "Why would I feel uncomfortable?"

Forget about eating their canned food; if necessary, she wouldn't even feel a thing for sleeping next to those corpses. Deng Ping…

Stop talking about it, let's not discuss this topic with her at night.

Otherwise, you'll only end up hurting yourself.

If you're too afraid to go outside to use the toilet in the middle of the night, then the stinky ginseng will probably laugh its head off.

Eight people sat around the fire. As the night deepened, they couldn't wander around, so they took turns resting.

Zhang Xiangdong arranged for duty shifts.

The six people were divided into three groups of two, with each group having two hours.

Jiang Tang and Deng Ping were both women and their team's guides, so they naturally didn't need to be on duty.

"Xiao Jiang, you and Comrade Deng go back to the car to rest."

As for the men, they would rest by the campfire outside, dozing off with their guns in their arms.

Jiang Tang did not refuse.

She and Deng Ping returned to the car.

One person sat on the driver's seat, and the other sat in the passenger seat. They reclined their seats and could close their eyes and take a nap.

Jiang Tang closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Deng Ping had trouble sleeping.

The mountains grew even quieter at night, and Deng Ping even felt a little uncomfortable in such a place.

She had run in the mountains at night before, and back then she wasn't afraid of anything.

Now that I'm a human, I've become much more timid.

Deng Ping asked Jiang Tang what was going on.

Jiang Tang didn't open her eyes. "Aren't rabbits always timid?"

"It's innate; it won't grow bigger after you become a human."

Deng Ping...

"And what about you? You used to be so carefree, how come you suddenly have a brain after you became a human being?"

Although she hadn't spent much time with Jiang Tang, she knew that she was very outstanding.

Back when she was a ginseng spirit, she buried herself in the ground every day, acting silly. No one could tell she had a brain!
Is it possible that you just haven't noticed?

Jiang Tang countered with a question.

Deng Ping...

So angry!

I'm not going to talk to her anymore, or I won't be able to sleep.

Deng Ping angrily closed her eyes.

She had initially thought that the person who couldn't sleep was probably just angry with Jiang Tang, because she closed her eyes for a while and actually fell asleep.

Hearing the soft calls from beside her, Jiang Tang's lips curled up slightly.

I drifted off to sleep peacefully.

Jiang Tang had originally planned to sleep until dawn.

But in the middle of the night, her hand was suddenly gripped tightly, forcing Jiang Tang to wake up from her dream.

When she opened her eyes, she found that Deng Ping was covered in sweat and had one hand tightly gripping her arm.

He kept muttering, "Don't come any closer, don't come any closer!"

Have a nightmare?

Jiang Tang sat up and reached out to nudge Deng Ping.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the outside and noticed that fog had rolled in.

"..."

What are you doing?
She was a little angry, so she removed Deng Ping's hand, opened the car door, and got out of the car.

"What are you doing?"

She looked around and spoke coldly.

Upon hearing Jiang Tang's voice, the two soldiers on night watch rushed over.

"Comrade Jiang, what's wrong?"

"fine."

Jiang Tang told them to go to the fire.

The two soldiers, holding their guns, nodded.

Jiang Tang slammed the car door shut, climbed onto the hood of the car, and sat down cross-legged.

She wanted to see when this fog would finally dissipate.

A white mist enveloped the area, filling the mountain path between the two mountains, and faintly, it seemed as if someone was talking in hushed tones.

There was not only conversation, but also laughter.

Not only Jiang Tang heard it, but the two people on night watch also heard it.

Where did this person come from in the middle of the night?
