After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 764

Chapter 764: Found Him
Without giving Xi Mo a chance to refuse, Zhouzhou dragged him straight to the car.

Xi Mo looked at her helplessly. “Zhouzhou, stop messing around. This isn’t a small matter.”

Wei Fangyi was very capable; even he couldn’t handle it, Xi Mo couldn’t imagine how formidable the opponent was. He didn’t want Zhouzhou to face danger. What if something happened to her?

While he was worried, Zhouzhou wasn’t afraid at all. She patted her small chest confidently. “It’s fine, I’m capable, and Ancestral Master will protect me.”

Thinking of how Ancestral Master had protected them last time, even avoiding a bomb, Xi Mo felt somewhat reassured. But only somewhat.

What if Ancestral Master wasn’t omnipotent?

“Stop hesitating, Uncle, rescuing people is urgent,” Zhouzhou urged.

Skinny Monkey and the others joined in, “Boss, I’m coming with you.”

Cui Kun and others silently nodded.

Commander looked at them and, seeing Xi Mo wasn’t speaking, decisively made the decision. “Alright, everyone get in the car.”

“Commander?” Xi Mo frowned.

Commander didn’t give him a chance to argue. “No matter how difficult the obstacles we’ve set up in the simulation, they can’t compare to Zhouzhou’s direct experience.”

In fact, he had been opposed to Zhao Xinghua and others agreeing to let Zhouzhou wait until she was eighteen to take on missions. The girl’s current strength was more than sufficient for missions; what she lacked was practical experience. Waiting another decade or more was meaningless.

However, they were concerned about Zhouzhou’s safety, so he hadn’t spoken out much. This time, with Xi Mo accompanying her, he hoped she could gain some valuable experience.

Zhouzhou nodded vigorously. “Exactly!”

She flashed a bright smile at Commander, clearly pleased with his words.

Commander rubbed his chin, vaguely feeling he might have found a way to bring the girl on board more effectively. But that would have to wait until their mission was over.

“Let’s go, Uncle. Don’t hesitate; if you keep hesitating, we might end up waiting here for the funeral,” Zhouzhou urged.

Hearing this, Xi Mo stopped dragging his feet and got into the car, with Skinny Monkey and the others quickly following.

Zhouzhou held Wei Fangyi’s piece of jade. There was nothing with his aura stronger than this. She took out her small compass, stuck the talisman on it with a “pop,” and the paper pointed in a direction.

By the time they reached the forest, night had fallen.

There were quite a few people in the forest, all searching for someone.

Zhouzhou crouched behind the bushes, peeking out cautiously with her round eyes alertly scanning the surroundings.

Xi Mo pressed her Fortune Hair down and whispered, “Have you found them?”

Zhouzhou nodded, pointing with her little chubby paw. “Over there.”

It was in the direction where the group had headed.

Xi Mo’s expression turned serious. Within two seconds, he made a hand signal.

Skinny Monkey and the others nodded, gradually spreading out, silently approaching the group.

“Let’s go.” Xi Mo signaled Zhouzhou, and the two of them swiftly followed.

Their footsteps were light. Before the people could react, their throats were already cut with daggers.

Zhouzhou also jumped up, landing on one of the people’s back. She covered his mouth with one hand and deftly twisted his neck with the other.

The entire process took only the blink of an eye. Before the victims could make a sound, they were on the ground.

After hiding the bodies in the bushes, Xi Mo glanced around and immediately said, “Let’s move.”

These people were only a part of the whole. It would be troublesome if the others caught up.

“Mm-hmm.” Zhouzhou nodded and quickly ran in the direction indicated by the compass.

At that moment, in a cave:

Wei Fangyi was pressing his hand against his wound, his face pale from blood loss. He held a dagger, vigilantly guarding the cave entrance while occasionally glancing back at his injured companions.

Although the cave provided temporary shelter, it also meant no cell signal, preventing them from sending a distress signal.

“Boss,” one of his men approached, worriedly frowning, “Sun Hai’s face looks off. We need to get him to the hospital immediately.”

They hadn’t expected the enemy to have secretly raised snakes. Even though they had quickly extracted the poison, some remained, which could be fatal.

Wei Fangyi glanced at Sun Hai, gritted his teeth, and said, “I’ll draw them away. You all take Sun Hai and leave quickly.”

The others immediately shook their heads. “No way.”

He was injured too. If he stayed and was captured, it would be a dead end.

“Boss, we came together, and we’ll leave together.”

“Listen to me.” Wei Fangyi scanned each person’s face. “Don’t make unnecessary sacrifices. Save as many as you can. Take Sun Hai and go. Once you’re out, you can get help. Make sure to call Xi Mo and explain the situation here. Hand over the task to him.”

Though he wasn’t fond of Xi Mo, he had to admit his strength. If Xi Mo were here, it was unlikely they’d be in such a dire situation.

Seeing their silence, he added, “Don’t worry. I’ll wait for you to return.”

When they continued to hesitate, his face darkened. “What, do my words no longer matter?”

Tears welled up in the eyes of those in front of him, realizing he was painting a grim picture. If he went alone to draw away the enemy, his chances of survival were slim. He was willing to sacrifice himself to pave a path for them.

Seeing that he was about to speak again, Wei Fangyi cut him off harshly. “Obedience is a soldier’s duty. Everyone, leave immediately. No turning back!”

The atmosphere in the cave dropped to its lowest point.

A few seconds later, the person in front wiped his tears and, head bowed, carried Sun Hai out.

He gave Wei Fangyi a deep look and gritted his teeth. “Let’s go!”

The others exchanged glances and silently headed for the cave entrance. They knew this was the only way to save Sun Hai.

Wei Fangyi moved to the cave entrance, just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly hardened. “Someone’s here!”

At this, everyone quickly retreated.

Wei Fangyi’s expression turned grim as he pressed himself against the wall, tightly gripping his dagger. His bullets were spent. But he would drag them down with him if necessary!

Three meters. Two meters. One meter.

A figure suddenly appeared at the entrance. Wei Fangyi dodged immediately and slashed at the figure’s neck with his dagger.

However, the person seemed to have anticipated this and grabbed his hand.

The cave was pitch black, and Wei Fangyi couldn’t see his opponent clearly, but the scent was familiar.

Without time to think further, the two engaged in several exchanges.

The opponent seemed to know him well, anticipating each of his moves perfectly.

Something was off–he was…
