Disaster Apocalypse: Farming, Family, and My Hidden Secret Space-Chapter 247. Luo Song
Chapter 247: 247. Luo Song
Immediately straightening his back, his eyes suddenly became deep. Could the voice be what he’s thinking?
But...that’s impossible!
Given the affection of his friend’s family towards Jin’er, it’s absolutely impossible to let the young girl run around the mountains by herself.
"Isn’t it?"
Seeing that no one answered for a long time, Jin’er muttered to herself.
Could it be that she really mistook someone else? Jin’er couldn’t help but scrutinize the person ahead again.
This voice shocked Luo Song once more.
Being able to call out his name, and with such a similar voice, Luo Song couldn’t believe such a coincidence could happen.
Therefore: ...
His eyes became eager, and he took a few steps forward.
"I am Luo Song, but who might you be, brother?"
Speaking as he pulled down the fur covering his face, revealing a face that, although slender, remained handsome, with obvious urgency in his tone as he stared intently at the person ahead.
It really is him! Jin’er also excitedly pulled the rabbit fur hat surrounding her eyes upward and her scarf downward, revealing a delicate little face, happily shouting towards Luo Song.
"Brother Luo Song, it’s Jin’er!"
After a year, finally seeing other living people, and familiar ones at that, how could she not be happy!
Jin’er was in a very good mood; she was indeed happy, but it scared Hua Da almost to the point of collapsing on the spot, shouting to a few companions to grab weapons and rush directly toward the mountain where his sister disappeared.
Meanwhile, Luo Song couldn’t restrain himself from rushing to Jin’er, stopping two steps away.
The visible joy showed, as the past baby fat had faded away, and the young girl had grown into a refined young lady. Luo Song couldn’t help but take a closer look.
"Sister Jin’er!"
Amidst the joy, Luo Song’s heart was extremely complicated.
He never expected that sister Jin’er would save him another time; repaying this kindness might really take a lifetime.
"Sister Jin’er...thank you for saving me again."
"It was purely a coincidence, and I didn’t expect to see Brother Luo Song here either. Aren’t you in the state capital? Why are you here at Qinggu Mountain?" Jin’er was genuinely curious.
"This is a long story, let’s not talk about why I’m here first, sister Jin’er, how come you’re in the mountains, and what about Brother Yun Ao? Are Grandpa Hua and the villagers okay?" Saying this, he looked around the mountains again, but sadly saw nothing.
Jin’er: "..."
She bent down to lift the badger pig he had casually thrown on the ground and then shook it in front of Luo Song.
"Badger pig?" Luo Song recognized the creature, primarily because it was full of valuable parts and great for nourishment, his grandfather ate quite a lot.
"Yes, it was to chase this," Jin’er nodded hurriedly.
She told Luo Song the reason she appeared on the mountain.
Luo Song didn’t quite agree, immediately looking at Jin’er, "Just you by yourself?"
Jin’er nodded.
"Come on, I’ll take you back," Luo Song could imagine how anxious Hua Yunao might be knowing that his sister was missing. Without saying another word, he immediately got to the point.
Although Jin’er wanted to go back quickly, she hesitated looking at the people beside Luo Song, not immediately agreeing.
Rescuing someone didn’t mean she had to take them back.
Seeing an old friend was indeed pleasant, but hearts can change, especially during such difficult times. Jin’er really hadn’t decided whether to bring them to the mountain where they lived, especially when there were so many strong villagers absent.
Especially considering there were over ten able-bodied men with combat power here.
Luo Song, being perceptive, understood precisely what the young girl’s heart held just by following Jin’er’s gaze.
Jin’er’s cautiousness didn’t offend Luo Song; instead, it made him happy, though the excitement he felt earlier at this bold young girl daring to rescue them was now diminished.
He thought about reminding Hua Yunao later.
"Jin’er, do you trust Brother Luo Song?" Luo Song asked Jin’er without saying much, just this one question.
Jin’er carefully observed Luo Song’s expression; the honesty and excitement in his slightly profound eyes were not fake.
Pondering over various memories, this guy indeed treated them well, whether it was snow salt or later sweet potatoes, they never suffered losses — his character was reliable.
Also, in such disastrous times, managing to return from the distant state capital meant he was well-prepared; likely, he wasn’t coveting the small perks of Hua Village.
Perhaps she was overthinking.
However: ...
"Can Brother Luo Song promise me Jin’er?" Jin’er pushed the ball over.
"Of course," Luo Song said with utmost seriousness.
Had it not been for the Hua family, he wouldn’t persist in searching for months ever since he reached the mountains.
"Since so, let’s hurry," Jin’er was getting somewhat anxious after delaying for so long.
Earlier, chasing the badger pig left no time for thinking; now she truly reacted and realized Big Sister Xiaomao and others might be worried sick, and most likely even Big Brother might already know.
The more she thought, the less calm Jin’er became. Hurriedly pulling her hat and scarf tight, she moved to the wild boars in front, first retrieving her crossbow arrow, then reaching out to grab the leg of a wild boar, quickly advancing while carrying the badger pig in one hand and dragging a wild boar in the other, leaving Luo Song and his men in stunned amazement.
"Hiss," the dozen or so men almost simultaneously gasped, including Luo Song.
Setting aside the formidable weapon in the girl’s hand, this strength alone vastly exceeded over ninety percent of men, with formidable destructive power.
Now they finally understood why this young girl called Jin’er dared to fearlessly appear in the mountains.
With such strength, unless encountering a fierce beast, she could walk unchallenged in the mountains!
Feeling shocked, Luo Song quickly followed, closely accompanied by Luo Lai, who always protected the master. Seeing this, others endured their injuries and lifted another relatively intact wild boar, picking up speed to catch up.
The other two wild boars, unfortunately, were too badly mauled to bear, so they were decisively abandoned to keep up with the masters’ pace.
Jin’er was anxious, and her speed was somewhat fast. Even so, it was much slower than her previous pace, far ahead of everyone, having to wait occasionally.
Seeing an old friend was a delight, but the thought of facing Hua Yunao when she returned home made Jin’er regret.
If she had known, she wouldn’t have meddled. Besides, these people weren’t as weak as imagined; they indeed could handle the wild boars, perhaps with some injuries.
Thinking that this speed was too slow, having several mountains to cross, by the time she arrived home, it would be dark. Even if Big Brother wished to help her hide, it might be impossible; thinking of her mother and grandmother’s reactions made Jin’er wish she could fly home instantly.
No, Jin’er couldn’t wait any longer.
She moved forward to Luo Song, saying: "Brother Luo Song, Jin’er might have to leave first. If I return too late, Grandpa, Grandma, and Mother would worry. You just follow the mountains horizontally, passing over three consecutively, then, upon seeing a rocky mountain, cross over; we live halfway up. By then, I’ll have Brother hold a torch to meet you. Brother Luo Song, do you remember?"
