Chapter 1599: Missed Him Terribly
The sound of the explosions filled her ears, reminding her that this was a real battlefield.
Once she got off the plane, Yun Xi got Su Hang to contact Mu Feichi and the team. The signal was intermittent, and it took them a long time to contact him. After locating where he was, they drove to the location.
“Girl, you’re smart. If you want to find them in the safest way possible, you have to pretend to be a part of the independent army. That’s the only way to avoid being attacked.”
They had just gotten off the plane and seized the car that they were sitting in from an independent army team that had fallen behind. They had taken off the independent army’s soldiers’ clothes and confiscated their weapons. The independent army’s flag was placed on the front of the car. They were not stopped along the way. Perhaps it was luck or the sky was too dark to see their faces clearly, but if it had been daytime, it would not have been so easy to get through.
“There’s nothing we can do about it. If we want to find people, we have to do it openly, and we also need to be wary of stray bullets. Disguising ourselves is the safest way.”
“Looks like their location has not moved. This area is the residential area of the war zone. We have to be careful now when we enter the war zone.”
Yun Xi nodded. She was sitting on the left while Su Hang was on the right. Both of them were paying attention to the movements on both sides. Fenghuang Niao was driving.
The car drove through the dilapidated streets. Yun Xi looked at the bloody corpses and broken limbs lying around the streets, and a wave of nausea surged in her.
Gritting her teeth, she turned away to look at her surroundings. She did not dare to look at the ground again. The cold wind and the smell of blood that assaulted her senses kept her wide awake.
As if he had sensed her shivers, Su Hang nudged her with his elbow. “This is a war zone. It’s like a nightmare. Do you regret coming here?”
Yun Xi clenched her teeth. With a light laugh, she straightened her back. “Since it was my choice, no matter what the situation is, I will face it.”
She had chosen this path herself. No matter how difficult it was, hadn’t Mu Feichi also walked this path?
If she wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, she would have to overcome all the difficulties like this situation. What right did she have to stand beside him if she couldn’t do it?
“Since you’re so determined, when the Young Commander beats me up later, you better hold him back. I’m afraid that he’ll break my legs.”
“...” Yun Xi laughed bitterly and didn’t say anything. The night was fraught with danger. Apart from trying to stay calm, she missed Mu Feichi terribly.
Even though she knew that she would see him soon, she could not control her restless heart.
She was both expectant and worried.
In the dilapidated residential area, the people who had formerly lived here had either died or escaped after the war had broken out in earnest. All that was left was a building that was in such bad shape that it was hard to identify its original shape.
The refugees were temporarily sheltered in a corner on the second floor. They were guarded by special forces soldiers. There were snipers lying at the highest vantage points. There were also people hidden in the dark corners downstairs, who were on high alert.
Mu Feichi instructed the military doctor he had brought with him to bandage the refugees’ wounds. The moment he turned around, the military doctor gasped.
“Young Commander! You’re injured!” The military doctor looked at the piece of steel stuck in his shoulder, and his expression turned into a grimace. “I’ll help you pull this out first. Compared to them, your injury is much more serious.”
“It’s fine. It’s almost time. I need to go to the front to relieve Lie Huo and San Qing. Help them bandage their wounds first.”
Mu Feichi looked at the piece of steel in his shoulder and was in no mood to treat his injuries.
Lie Huo and San Qing, who had lured the independent army away, had not returned yet. The two of them were fighting against a group of people on their own. Mu Feichi was worried about their safety and did not know if they could return safely.
