Chapter 131: Found the Document
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Only places with dead objects would have yin qi. It was obvious that there wouldn’t be a graveyard in such a place. Perhaps there was something dead nearby.
Su Meng held a flashlight and searched the area carefully.
However, she didn’t know what was going on. The compass indicated that it was here, but after searching for a long time, she didn’t find anything. The other soldiers had already checked every tree and thorny bush, but there was still nothing.
It was not very big, but it was not small either. It should not be so difficult to find it. Su Meng frowned as she stood under the tree. She was analyzing in her heart. Could it be that she had missed something?
The rain had completely stopped. She did not have to worry about affecting her line of sight. Su Meng held the flashlight and looked around, but there was still nothing.
Because she was a little tired, Su Meng took a few steps back to lean against the tree. However, just as she took a step back, her foot stepped on something soft. She lost her balance and almost fell.
Fortunately, in the next moment, someone held her back, so she did not fall. Su Meng looked back and saw that it was One who was holding her. There was a dried wood beside the tree. If she had just fallen on it, even if she had clothes, she would have been injured.
“Thank you.” Su Meng raised her head and thanked One.
One still maintained his cold and aloof appearance. He would not speak if he could. When he heard Su Meng’s thanks, he nodded slightly, indicating that he accepted it.
Shen Jian and Gao Yan also noticed this. Gao Yan asked Su Meng, “Miss Su, did you discover something?”
“I stepped on something just now. Let me take a look,” Su Meng replied and then lowered her head to look.
Su Meng held the flashlight and squatted down to take a look. After looking for a long time, she finally saw what it was. It was actually a big fox. The fox was already dead and its body was covered in mud.
The rest of the people followed Su Meng’s line of sight and also saw the fox on the ground.
It was too normal to encounter dead animals in the forest. Gao Yan immediately lost interest when he saw that it was not what he was looking for. Shen Jian, on the other hand, squatted down with tears in his eyes.
“Mr. Shen, what happened to you?” Gao Yan looked at Shen Jian, who was crying in a low voice, puzzled.
“The fox is so miserable. It died here and no one buried it.” Shen Jian caught the fox and did not mind the mud on the fox’s body. He walked to a flat area next to it and put it down.
Su Meng looked at Shen Jian’s actions and was deep in thought. She did not make a sound.
“Excuse me, do you have a small shovel? I want to dig a hole for the fox to bury it. This is too pitiful.” Shen Jian asked Gao Yan.
Gao Yan handed him a military shovel. Shen Jian took it and began to dig the hole.
Gao Yan walked to Su Meng’s side and asked softly, “Mr. Shen has always been so… Hmm… Sentimental?”
Su Meng nodded and said with a sigh, “He feels the same way.”
While the two were talking, Shen Jian, who was digging a hole, suddenly shouted, “Boss, Boss, come quickly! There’s something wrong with this fox!”
When Su Meng heard Shen Jian calling her, she immediately ran over.
“This fox has a wound on its body. There’s a hole in its stomach.” Shen Jian supported the fox’s body and let Su Meng see its stomach.
There was indeed a large wound on the fox’s stomach. It was roughly sewn up with a white thread. Because it had just rained, the blood had been washed clean. In addition, there was a lot of mud on its body. If one did not pay attention, they would not be able to see it at all.
Su Meng suddenly thought of what she had predicted during the day. The target had been moving all along, but it had stopped moving at night. Her heart moved, and she said to Gao Yan, “There’s something in the fox’s stomach. Can you take a look?”
There were a few spots on the fox’s body that were not covered with mud, and its snow-white fur could be seen. Su Meng immediately understood. It seemed that this fox was the mother of the little fox just now. Thinking of the poor little fox, Su Meng really did not have the courage to tear open the big fox’s stomach by herself.
It was strange that the fox was so severely injured and had something in its stomach. It could actually hold on for so many days and only died today. It was said that maternal love did not differentiate between species. It was probably to take care of the little fox that it was able to hold on.
On the day the big fox died, the little fox was met by her. This must be God’s will. Su Meng secretly promised in her heart that she would take good care of the little fox in the future.
Gao Yan immediately understood what Su Meng meant. He apologized in his heart and then opened up the fox’s stomach. Sure enough, a paper that was a few centimeters long was revealed. It was wrapped in transparent plastic film, so it was not wet.
“See if it’s what you want.” After Su Meng said that, she asked another soldier for a military shovel and dug a hole with Shen Jian to bury the fox. Meanwhile, Gao Yan took the thing that he had just found to One’s side.
