Chapter 110 Suffering
Chapter 110 Suffering
Following Ge Fu's instructions, the escort team followed in a jeep at a not-too-close distance behind.
——Just seeing that Lu Yao didn’t notice their tracking, we knew they were still very successful.
At the beginning, everything went smoothly, and the captain even sent two vehicles to the front to provide support. In this way, if there was an enemy attack, they could give early warning or block the enemy's retreat.
But what was unexpected was that they actually saw the princess encounter quicksand.
This kind of natural disaster is simply beyond human control.
They were all stunned with fear at the time. Some of these battle-hardened soldiers even lost their legs on the spot.
Those who were sent by Yang Shaoheng to protect Ge Fu were all his confidants, so these people knew very well how much their boss valued this princess. It was not an exaggeration to say that he treated her as his own daughter.
If Ge Fu lost his life under their protection... these people would be shocked and scared.
They were not only afraid that Yang Shaoheng would be angry, they were even more afraid that he would be sad.
Besides, Ge Fu is the daughter of Ge Yao. If she dies here, they will become sinners of the entire Hengyang.
Unlike his subordinates, as the captain, Xu Jian had witnessed battles between emotionalists more than once. At first, he didn't think it was wrong, until those quicksand pits appeared like honeycombs, and then he noticed something unusual.
It is hard not to associate such anomalies with the emotional therapist.
The one who targeted the princess turned out to be the emotional counselor!
Rather...
They were powerless against the quicksand, and even more so against the emotional master.
Xu Jian’s first reaction was to call Yang Shaoheng, but after dialing the call, he found that there was no signal here.
For a moment, they didn't dare to approach, nor did they dare to leave.
Only after the scouts discovered that there was no movement in the quicksand pit did they dare to drive closer.
Seeing these guards, Lu Yao frowned slightly. These people had obviously experienced battlefields and were not just good-looking people, but they had no courage at all.
If the soldiers under his command want to achieve their goals, neither natural disasters nor emotional masters can stop them.
Of course, he didn't mean to ask them to die. Quicksand and the Emotion Master were indeed not something that ordinary people could handle, but not even daring to get close to them was a bit too cowardly.
But if you think about it, you can understand it. Unlike Jinglong, Hengyang has not had any large-scale battles in recent years. Except for the emotional division who are still on international missions, ordinary soldiers have only experienced small-scale conflicts. Their courage... is not as good as those soldiers of Jinglong who are actually fighting on the battlefield.
Ge Fu did not notice Lu Yao's dissatisfaction with Xu Jian and the others. She smiled faintly and said, "It's okay. We were lucky and did not encounter the quicksand pit head-on. However, Lu Yao was unlucky and almost fell into the quicksand, so he got injured."
No matter who Lu Yao is, she has to cover for him for now.
It would be strange if Xu Jian believed this.
However, since Ge Fu said so, he did not question her in front of her, but decided to report to his boss when he returned.
Ge Fu knew that her words might not be believed by others, and she never thought that the other party would really believe her. She could also guess that Xu Jian would probably report the situation to Yang Shaoheng after returning.
But she was not too worried. First, emotional consultants were not easy to find, and Lu Yao's identity was not so easy to guess. Second, based on her understanding of Yang Shaoheng, if she was not injured, as long as she made a statement, the other party would not embarrass her.
Xu Jian was relieved to see that Ge Fu was unharmed.
"Then let's go back first." No matter what, this is not a suitable place to stay for a long time.
This time when they went back, the people driving were all from the guard team, and Xu Jian even got in the same car with Ge Fu and Lu Yao.
——Rather than being frightened like before, he would rather face the danger with the princess.
The people who were frightened were not only the guards, but also Ge Fu, but she was too nervous before and didn't realize it. Now that she relaxed, the jeep was a little shaky due to the road conditions, and she couldn't help yawning.
"Go to sleep if you're sleepy. I'll call you when we get there." Lu Yao said.
Ge Fu shuddered and quickly shook her head, "No, no, I'm not sleepy!" She was almost traumatized by the idea of sleeping in the car.
She didn't want to wake up halfway and find herself trapped in a pit of quicksand.
Lu Yao understood her concerns after a brief thought, and for a moment he wondered how she could be so cute.
He simply reached out and put her head on his shoulder, smiling and said, "Go to sleep. I promise nothing bad will happen when you wake up this time." Based on his understanding of Jiang Yongjie, he must have run as far as he could by now.
Ge Fu leaned on the man's shoulder and thought blankly: It seems... a little bit handsome.
Ge Fu no longer remembered when she fell asleep. She only knew that when she opened her eyes again, she was already in the hotel garage.
The first thing she did when she woke up was to tell everyone, "Don't tell anyone about the quicksand, lest they get scared."
Xu Jian twitched his lips, looked at Lu Yao and said, "But he can't hide his injuries."
"Just say that he was squeezed by the tourists and fell into the sand pit." Ge Fu found an excuse instantly.
Xu Jian's eyes went dark. "You don't want to stay and play anymore, do you?"
"Of course, I finally got the chance to come out." Ge Fu said without hesitation: "Anyway, Doctor Zhou is here, she can take care of Lu Yao's injury."
Lu Yao followed up with, "It's okay for me."
Xu Jian gritted his teeth and said, "For safety reasons, we should return to Yaojing as soon as possible."
"Quicksand is a natural disaster. How can it be so easy to encounter it?" Ge Fu comforted him, "Don't worry, you won't be so unlucky."
Do we have to bring up the quicksand issue?
Is it just the quicksand thing here?
Xu Jian's face turned red, and he had already made up his mind to complain to his boss.
Because Lu Yao acted so relaxed, Ge Fu really didn't take his injury too seriously. Who knew that Dr. Zhou's expression changed when he saw his injury.
"What? Is it serious?" Ge Fu couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.
She looked up at Lu Yao. He really looked a little disheveled. In addition to his face, his neck, ankles and exposed hands were all covered in blood.
But sand is not a knife, so it shouldn’t have any lethality, right?
"It's not serious, it's troublesome." Doctor Zhou frowned and said, "The wound is full of sand. Cleaning it is too painful."
"It's okay." Lu Yao said indifferently: "Just rinse the wound with medical alcohol."
"That would be very painful." After a pause, Dr. Zhou added: "It would hurt a lot!"
"I can bear it." Lu Yao insisted.
Nonsense, it's not the first time he has done this.
Ge Fu frowned, "Is there no other way?" How painful it would be to rinse the wound with alcohol.
