Even if Xiang Shengnan has such perseverance, the hardware conditions are limited, so when the sun sets again, they are still three ridges away from the actual descent.

If it were just the couple Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang, they wouldn't be delayed at all because of darkness. They would climb three mountain ridges just like they did, and they would arrive home to have breakfast with their family at dawn.

However, it was not possible to take Xiang Shengnan with him, so Yang Ruoqing discussed with Luo Fengtang: "I think this place is not far from our daughter's camp. How about we go there to stay first tonight and rest up, and then return to the village tomorrow?"

Luo Fengtang said: "That's exactly what I mean. My daughter must be worried about us too. Let's go over and see her to reassure her."

Yang Ruoqing smiled, "Yes, I haven't seen my daughter for a while. My father misses her."

The two of them went over to tell Xiang Shengnan about their decision. They originally thought that Xiang Shengnan, who was timid about being close to home, would be hesitant and unhappy, but they didn't expect that he would become silent.

After a moment of silence, he raised his head and begged: "Sister, brother-in-law, can I ask you something?"

"You said, our family doesn't say whether we ask for it or not." Yang Ruoqing said.

Xiang Shengnan glanced at himself, his brows furrowed like a rope that couldn't be untied.

"If I go back like this, I will definitely scare Duo'er and Jiaojiao, and also make the elderly people on both sides worried."

"I was thinking, this time I went to my niece's camp. Can I stay with her for two days to recover a little bit like a normal person before going home?"

Is this the original request?

Yang Ruoqing did not completely agree with Shengnan's request, "Shengnan, do you know that Duo'er has not set up a tomb for you because she thinks you must still be alive."

"As long as you come back alive, even with just a breath left, it will be an eye-opener for her."

"Just go back like this. Go back earlier so that she can see you, hear you, touch you, and make her feel at ease earlier."

Xiang Shengnan shook his head gently, "Sister, I don't want Duo'er to see me in such a mess. It will take at least two days for me to wait for the strange smell of Nanshan Village on me to dissipate before I can go back."

"And Jiaojiao, I can't let her see her father look like this! I don't want to leave a shadow on the child's heart!"

Yang Ruoqing was silent.

At this time, Luo Fengtang also spoke up. For the first time, he did not stand on Yang Ruoqing's side, but turned to Xiang Shengnan: "It's okay to go to the camp and stay for a few days to recuperate before returning to the village."

"Your sister and I will go back early to make arrangements for you and find a suitable reason to deal with the villagers in and outside the village."

If the truth is told, it will have an impact on Xiang Shengnan's reputation. The villagers spread rumors and don't know what kind of rhetoric it will turn into in the end.

Since they both said so, Yang Ruoqing could only agree.

But while Xiang Shengnan went to relieve himself behind the big tree nearby, Yang Ruoqing still lowered her voice and asked Luo Fengtang: "It's the same as going back directly. I'm good at making up stories. I can make them up on the way, and I guarantee they will be perfect. Why do you have to do it?"

How many days should Duo'er wait to see Katsuo?"

Luo Fengtang touched her head: "Men think differently from women. You can understand this as a man's pride!"

When he said this, Yang Ruoqing suddenly understood.

The look in his eyes suddenly became a little more meaningful.

"What's wrong? What kind of look is that?" Luo Fengtang smiled and pinched her face with both hands.

She looked straight at him with her big eyes: "No man wants to show his embarrassed and fragile side in front of his woman, but what about you? If I hadn't gone to Nanshan Village this time, my skills would have been suppressed, and I couldn't detoxify you.

Shouldn't we die together with them?"

She knew him well, and he would rather die together than compromise in order to live in humiliation.

Luo Fengtang's eyes were gentle, and he pinched her face and continued: "We won't die together. Don't forget that I have the blood of Taizu, which is my trump card!"

Yang Ruoqing grabbed his hand, threw herself into his arms, and hugged his waist tightly.

"I don't allow you to have those arrogant feelings. It's better to die than to live. I just want you to live and I don't care about anything else!"

Even if you were really slept with by another woman, I also know that you had no choice but to do it yourself.

As long as you have me in your heart, as long as you save your life and live well, I can accept it.

Because there is only one you in this world, and if you are gone, you are gone.

A soft sigh fell on the top of Yang Ruoqing's hair. Luo Fengtang gently pressed his chin against her soft hair and said in a deep voice: "Silly woman, don't think too much about your men, okay?"

Yang Ruoqing raised her head, looked at him and smiled: "Yes, my man is the most powerful."

The two of them were not flirting with each other, because Xiang Shengnan came over from the other side, and they let go of each other. Luo Fengtang went over and made a horse stance to let Xiang Shengnan get on his back.

"Come on, let's go to the camp and settle down quickly without any further delay."

Xiang Shengnan originally wanted to refuse, but after hearing this, he gritted his teeth, nodded, and climbed onto Luo Fengtang's back sheepishly.

Originally, he was very afraid of this eldest brother-in-law. When he saw his eldest brother-in-law, he felt inferior and reserved. He didn't know what to say or where to place his hands and feet.

The night I disappeared, I had a few quarrels with Xiao Duo because of this matter...

But during this trip to Nanshan Village, he had many more opportunities to get along with his eldest brother-in-law than he had in the previous years combined.

The eldest brother-in-law has a cold face and a warm heart. He looks cold and seems to be distant from others, but he is actually very easy to get along with. He has no airs and does not look down on others. Before, he was superficial.

Xiang Shengnan, who was lying on Luo Fengtang's back, felt ashamed.

The three of them hurried and hurried slowly, and when they arrived at the camp, it was already dark. The night in the mountains was quiet and deep, with the occasional hoarse sound of a few jackdaws adding a bit of desolation to this early winter night.

It was pitch dark all around the camp, and the training ground that used to be so vibrant was now silent.

In the chaotic darkness, only the light in the hall was lit, which was particularly conspicuous in this dark night, like a star, guiding the direction of the confused people and providing a destination for the tired travelers.

The three of them traveled through mountains and rivers, over mountains and ridges, and when they saw the lights in the hall, warmth and eagerness suddenly filled their hearts.

My feet, which were still tireless, suddenly seemed anxious at this moment. I wished I could cross the distance with one step, plunge into the hall, and shout: "Daughter, we are back!"

…

We finally entered the camp. In the hall, Hong Xiu, Luo Baobao, Ye Yi, and Zuo Jingling were all awake. They were discussing something intensely around a table.

There is a map spread out on the table in front of you. There are mountains and rivers on the map, and many places have been specially marked.
