Chapter 301 I am a man

  The footprints of the three people are gone, replaced by a piece of grass that has fallen on the steep slope.

   Shao Mingyuan went down the steep **** to the bottom of the valley, and saw a familiar figure wandering along the mountain stream. The girl held a long bamboo pole in her hand, and the other end of the bamboo pole was submerged in the water, as if she was exploring something.

   "Miss Li." Shao Mingyuan shouted.

  The back was obviously stiff, and then turned around abruptly, it was Qiao Zhao without a doubt.

   "General Shao—" Qiao Zhao opened his mouth, spit out these three words, and his eyes couldn't help but grow tight. At such a desperate and helpless moment, the appearance of Shao Mingyuan undoubtedly lit a light in Qiao Zhao's heart.

  Qiao Zhao thought, she really can't hate this guy anymore.

   Shao Mingyuan had already strode over and asked in a warm voice, "Are you okay, are you injured?

  Qiao Zhao tightened the bamboo pole in his hand: "I'm fine, but the morning light and the ice green are gone."

   "Gone?" Shao Mingyuan thought for a while and asked, "Binglu slipped and fell down the steep slope?"

Qiao Zhao was stunned, then nodded: "Yes, Chenguang went to pull her, but the soil under his feet was loosened, and the two of them rolled down together. I climbed down the hillside and found that there was a mountain stream here, but there was no two of them. In all likelihood, they fell into the mountain stream."

   Speaking of this, Qiao Zhao's expression darkened.

   With the ability of the morning light, if he was awake at that time, it is impossible for the two of them to disappear like this.

Qiao Zhao felt even more uncomfortable when he thought of the bloodstains on the stone he saw when he was climbing down, so he forced himself to cover it up and said, "Chenguang may have hurt his head on the way down, I guess they fell into a coma when they fell into the water. I don't know... I don't know if they were underneath or were washed away by the water..."

   She followed the direction of the water and found nothing. She picked up a bamboo pole and explored the mountain stream back to the original road. She had no hope, and then heard that person calling her: Miss Li.

   For a moment, Qiao Zhao thought that there was nothing wrong with being Miss Li. However, this thought just flashed by, and more emotions pushed it out of the sky.

   "Miss Li, please turn around." Shao Mingyuan said suddenly.

  Qiao Zhao knew that this man's mind was not under his own, and in such a harsh environment, force was much more practical than wisdom. After listening to him, he turned around without hesitation.

   She couldn't see what Shao Mingyuan was doing, she listened carefully, only a very slight rustling sound was heard.

   With his back to the mountain stream, Qiao Zhao couldn't help but ask, "General Shao?"

   "I'll go into the water to have a look, Miss Li, please don't—"

   "Please don't turn around for the time being" was interrupted by Qiao Zhao sharply before he could finish his sentence: "No way!"

   She turned around immediately, then opened her eyes wide in shock and took a half step back.

   The man in front of him took off his robe and trousers, he was shirtless, and he was wearing only a pair of shorts. Because he was too surprised, a long leg that had been raised was so stiff in the air.

   After a momentary delay, Shao Mingyuan jumped into the water with a plop.

  Qiao Zhao woke up suddenly, ran quickly to the side of the mountain and shouted loudly, "Shao Mingyuan, come up!"

   Is this person dying? The water in the mountain stream is already cold, and he hasn't given any needles today, so it's no wonder he doesn't lose half his life!

  Qiao Zhao was in a hurry and shouted a few times, but there was no movement below except for the turbulent water waves on the surface.

   "Shao Mingyuan, if you don't come up again, I'll go down!"

   The voice fell, water splashed all over, and Shao Mingyuan came out.

   He touched the water droplets on his face, and his breath was a little rushed: "Fortunately, there is nothing underneath!"

   It's not that there is nothing at the bottom of the water, but there are scattered human bones, but there is no need to say these to scare Miss Li.

  The corners of Shao Mingyuan's lips raised slightly: "After they rolled down the mountain stream, they didn't sink into the mud at the bottom of the water. This is good news. If they float away, there is hope of surviving—"

   Shao Mingyuan couldn't continue his words. Facing the girl's livid face by the water, his tone was stagnant: "Miss Li, you—"

   "Come up." Qiao Zhao tried to keep her tone calm, although she had the urge to kick the person in front of her to death.

   Did he take his body seriously?

   "Okay." Shao Mingyuan agreed happily, "Miss Li, please avoid it for a while."

  Qiao Zhao didn't lift his eyelids, and turned away expressionlessly.

   The movement of landing came from behind, followed by Shao Mingyuan's somewhat embarrassed voice: "Miss Li, my clothes are in front of you—"

   So he has to go around in front of her if he wants to get dressed...

  Qiao Zhao almost laughed angrily, took a few steps forward, bent over to pick up the clothes on the ground, raised his hand and threw it back.

   Shao Mingyuan caught it steadily and quickly put on his clothes and trousers, and he was relieved.

   He tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened, and walked up to Qiao Zhao: "Miss Li, I'll take you back to Dafu Temple first."

  Qiao Zhao pointed out: "General Shao went to sit down on that rock, and then took off his coat."

   Shao Mingyuan was startled.

  The one he just put on—

   "You haven't had the needle today yet, and you're in the water again. If you don't apply the needle to expel the poison right away, don't tell me where you're taking me. I'm afraid I'll have to carry you in a while."

   He is so big, how could she be able to carry it.

  Shao Mingyuan had to sit down and take off his shirt.

   At this time, the sky had turned dark, and the wind was cold at the bottom of the valley, and he couldn't help shivering.

  Qiao Zhao sighed in his heart, half-knelt beside Shao Mingyuan, and reached out to touch the purse tied around his waist.

   She gave a hand and changed her face.

   "Miss Li?" Shao Mingyuan looked down and saw that the girl's waist was empty.

   "I lost my purse, this is bad." Although Qiao Zhao has always been calm, after this series of changes, he was inevitably a little confused.

   "Why don't you listen to my advice and insist on going into the water?"

  Shao Mingyuan's eyes were calm: "You can feel at ease by confirming the situation at the bottom of the water. I believe that if Miss Li knows water, she will definitely do the same."

   The girl in front of her is too strong. When encountering a sudden situation, the first thing she thinks of is to rely on herself, and she never thinks of relying on others.

   He was lucky to arrive in time.

  Qiao Zhao was speechless when asked.

  If she knows water, of course she will go down to see what happens. Because only by seeing it with your own eyes, whether the result is good or bad, can you give up.

  Qiao Zhao thought, she and Shao Mingyuan are very similar in some respects.

  However, Miss Qiao will not be speechless by someone choking, she said with a stern face: "What's the matter, you have cold poison in your body—"

   Shao Mingyuan did not obey Qiao Zhao's words, and said seriously: "This is not a reason to back down when encountering an accident."

   He looked at Qiao Zhao with gentle eyes, and said word by word, "I'm a man."

   He said these words in a clear and frank manner, but Qiao Zhao's face became hot for some reason, so he looked away and said lightly, "General Shao should put on his clothes first."
