On the first night of her marriage, she was hospitalized

Chapter 425 Who's the boss?
"It's alright, it's alright, it's not hard work, it's not hard work."

As she spoke, Deng Ping waved to Zhang Xiangdong and quickly went to catch up with Jiang Tang.

Xu Hui and his group saluted Zhang Xiangdong and his group, then turned and left.

The original team of thirteen people had two people left at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, and now two more have left, leaving only nine people.

Jiang Tang, Deng Ping, Xu Hui, and his six comrades-in-arms.

"Hey, I told you to slow down."

Deng Ping clutched her chest, panting as she chased after Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang, who was already squatting by the river, turned her head and made a quiet gesture to Deng Ping, telling her not to make a sound.

Thinking back to what happened yesterday, Deng Ping immediately walked over cautiously, as if she were a thief.

"How about it?"

"Did you find anything?"

Her voice was very soft.

Only the two of them could hear it.

Those unaware of the situation might think they were plotting some shady scheme.

Jiang Tang asked Deng Ping to step back.

They were currently at the lowest point between the two mountains.

Behind us were the mountains we had come from, and on both sides were more mountains. To move forward, we had to cross the canyon where a flash flood would suddenly erupt.

Therefore, it is essential to determine just how loud a noise would trigger a sudden flash flood!
Deng Ping understood what Jiang Tang meant.

They retreated back up the mountain.

Xu Hui and the others also walked up to her.

He tried to step forward, but Deng Ping stopped him.

"Wait a moment."

"Let her try it first."

Deng Ping's voice was also not loud.

Xu Hui thought about what Jiang Tang was going to try. He wanted to suggest that he go in Jiang Tang's place.

Deng Ping turned around and looked at the tall man beside her.

The scrutinizing look in his eyes made Xu Hui involuntarily stand up straight.

"Comrade Deng Ping?"

"You can not."

Deng Ping drew a conclusion.

Not only did they say Xu Hui was incompetent, but they also turned around and told everyone behind them what they were saying.

"You're all no good, you're far from it."

Xu Hui...

The six people behind him...

Thank you, I was indeed discouraged.

Deng Ping didn't care about them; she just wanted to make herself clear.

"If you want to get to the mission location alive and come out alive, you have to listen to her, and of course, you have to listen to me too."

"Don't try to be tough and say you're all men. In these mountains, Jiang Tang is the boss."

"Just listen to her."

Xu Hui nodded blankly.

The captain also said that everything should be based on Comrade Jiang Tang's words, so they would naturally listen to Comrade Jiang Tang.

Eight people stood on the edge of the mountain, watching Jiang Tang's small body, carrying a large backpack, hopping and leaping across the water-washed rocks.

It feels like she's just playing around.

They hopped forward while playing.

In no time, she jumped to a place about two hundred meters away from them.

That is, the narrowest part of the canyon.

That is the source of the stream.

In what looks like an inconspicuous place, there are several large rocks, inside which is a small pool of water, with water flowing continuously from it.

The flow rate is moderate.

But we cannot be careless.

Yesterday's flash flood originated from there.

Upon arriving at her destination, Jiang Tang looked around before climbing a large tree above the stream's outlet.

She lay on the big tree, peered out at the mouth of the stream, and let out a loud "Ah!"

Her voice echoed on the pool.

Several people in the distance were startled by her actions.

After Jiang Tang cried out, she immediately hugged the tree trunk with both hands.

And they listened intently, carefully discerning the movements deep within the pool.

After her cry, there was indeed a rumbling sound of water inside, as if groundwater was about to gush out again. Before long, the water in the pool became murky, and the flow rate increased considerably.

Indeed.

The pool here should not be disturbed by sound.

Excessive noise can cause groundwater to flow out.

Some people may find this too mystical, but it is actually just a natural phenomenon.

There is so much groundwater in this place that without external stimulation, it will always maintain a delicate balance.

However, if someone stimulates it, such as through tectonic movement, sound, or objects falling into it, it can overflow.

In the past, this would have been considered a phenomenon beyond nature.

But not now.

Jiang Tang lay on the tree for a while, tapping the trunk and speaking in a normal voice. The pool was calm, and there was no danger of a flash flood.

She looked up at the sky, but the sky didn't seem to be changing anytime soon.

So she slid down from the tree and waved to Deng Ping and the others in the distance.

It's okay now.

All seven of them carried large backpacks and walked slowly along the riverbank.

Everyone tacitly kept quiet.

They only breathed a sigh of relief after they met up with Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang told Xu Hui to take his men and go a few steps ahead.

Deng Ping looked at her suspiciously and asked what else she wanted to do.
Jiang Tang snorted, "Doesn't it like to cause flash floods all the time? Then let it perform for me again!"

As she spoke, she actually picked up a large rock, about the size of a basket, lifted it high, and smashed it into the pool.

A rumbling sound came from beneath their feet.

The sound was terrifying; it felt like a thousand horses were galloping beneath my feet.

"Are you crazy?"

Deng Ping was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she grabbed Jiang Tang's arm, trying to drag her away.

"No rush, they flow downwards, they can't flow back up."

As she spoke, she squatted on a large rock to the side, watching leisurely as the flash flood gushed out of the pool.

Deng Ping...

"So, you're so petty that you won't even let a small pond go?"

“You didn’t get flooded yesterday, but I did.”

How can one not seek revenge?

Deng Ping...

As the river widened rapidly, Deng Ping had only one thought in her mind: Could the ginseng spirit's heart be as small as a needle?

After thinking about it carefully, Deng Ping felt that it was definitely not possible.

After all, people with narrow minds and tiny hearts shouldn't be capable of holding a grudge against Xiaoxi.

Jiang Tang, who was "taking revenge," was unaware that Deng Ping was secretly criticizing her.

She watched the water gushing down, but instead of stopping immediately, she rubbed her hands together and snapped the big tree she had just climbed into pieces.

Yes, that's right. She snapped a tree trunk that was thicker than a man's thigh in half.

He grabbed the tree trunk with both hands and poked it into the pool.

Deng Ping!!!

What is she trying to do?
They were completely stunned and speechless.

The rumbling sound beneath my feet was still echoing.

After being speechless for a while, Deng Ping quickly came to her senses and grabbed Jiang Tang's arm.

Stop her from continuing to do evil.

"Ancestor, that's enough, let's go quickly. Do you want this ravine to turn into a swamp?"

"More water is good; it helps plants grow."

Jiang Tang was reluctant to leave.

The reason is quite legitimate.

Deng Ping couldn't control her and grabbed her arm, saying, "Xu Hui and the others are still waiting for you. Have you forgotten that you promised Zhang Xiangdong that you would take them out safely?"

"There's no danger around here!"

Jiang Tang answered.

Deng Ping instinctively asked, "How did you know? This is deep in the mountains."

"If there's danger, won't you be the first to run away?"

Jiang Tang answered as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Deng Ping thought about it and realized, "Oh, that makes sense, doesn't it? After all, rabbits are masters at seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune..."

"No, who said I'd be the first to run away? Jiang Tang, you underestimate me!"
