Chapter 386 - 7 The Seven Daggers
The rain had persisted for a long time, with the storm lasting through the night. Only in the morning did the weather clear up, leaving everyone feeling exhausted and downhearted due to hunger.
At dawn, a group of female soldiers huddled under a large rock. Yi Chentian looked up as daylight broke and patted Zhong Ming on the shoulder, "Let’s go look for food!"
Zhong Ming naturally had nothing to say. They had been starving, their stomachs growling for a whole day and night without eating, all while continuing to deplete their physical strength.
"Wait for us to team up, and be careful of the instructors. They could come to catch us at any time. If we get caught, it’ll be trouble. It’s better to stick together," Zhao Zilong and Shao Changfeng also stood up and said.
As men, of course, they had to protect the women. He looked toward Gu Xiaoxi and the others and smiled, "Seize the time to rest, and we’ll come back once we find food."
Gu Xiaoxi nodded her head, "Then be careful on your way."
Tang Yisheng also went along with them.
By this time, apart from Gu Xiaoxi and others, there were two more female soldiers in the team, naturally, it was Ye Shen and Xia Li whom Gu Xiaoxi had saved.
Ye Shen touched her still somewhat damp clothes, her eyes brimming with tears, "Is this what war is like? War isn’t as merciless as this. Why is the weather so cold? I can hardly stand it."
The clothes were continually wet and cold to wear, and colder still to remove.
