Behind him was a deadly mudslide. Su Fan knew that if he didn’t hurry up, once his feet were submerged, he would be powerless to turn the tide.
However, no matter how close the mudslide was, his determination to hold Wei Zhitong’s hand tightly and pull her up did not waver at all.
It wasn’t that he had any so-called noble character, but in his eyes, this was human nature. He was a doctor, and saving the dying and healing the wounded was his duty. He couldn’t just leave people in the lurch.
“Wuuu… Su Fan, why don’t you let go of me?” Wei Zhitong tried her best to keep up with Su Fan’s pace, but she stumbled and had to rely on Su Fan to pull her along in order to run.
She would not drag Su Fan down and did not want anything to happen to him.
“Cut the crap!” Su Fan gripped Zhitong’s wrist even tighter.
The dead branches and leaves under his feet were quickly trampled down by him. The debris from the mudslide and a few pieces of debris hit his calves.
Su Fan’s elegant face was calm and composed. Only his tightly furrowed brows could show the urgency and heaviness under his calmness.
If they ran slower than the mudslide, both he and Wei Zhitong would lose their lives here.
“Su Fan! Faster! Run!” Monk You You stood together. Before he could catch his breath, he shouted at Su Fan in fear.
Luo Yangyang panted as she ran to Shang Yiran. She stopped and turned around to look down with him.
When she looked down, she was not as worried. The mudslide seemed to have stopped rolling, and the narrow valley was completely submerged by the mudslide.
Behind Su Fan and Wei Zhitong, there was a distance of four to five meters between them and the mudslide that had piled up. The mudslide did not continue to pile up and catch up to them.
When Su Fan pulled Wei Zhitong along and finally ran to where Shang Yiran and the others were, the five of them were panting heavily as they looked at the mess at the foot of the mountain. When the bean-sized raindrops fell on their faces through the branches and leaves, they felt as if they had just survived a disaster.
If they had not discovered the mudslide in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Su Fan…” While the few of them were still in a state of lingering fear, Wei Zhitong looked at Su Fan’s hand that was still holding her wrist tightly and looked at him with admiration and worship.
Su Fan’s torchlight had long been lost in the mudslide when he was fleeing for his life. His vision was severely obstructed in the stormy night, but this did not prevent Wei Zhitong from looking at him lovingly.
Wei Zhitong’s voice sounded abnormal in Su Fan’s ears, and he subconsciously turned to look at her.
In the darkness, there was a rather familiar face. His wet hair was stuck to his face, and he looked miserable.
Su Fan looked at Wei Zhitong for two seconds before realizing that he was still holding her and immediately let go of her hand.
“Which one of you has a flashlight in your bag?”Su Fan’s gaze turned away from Wei Zhitong.
He would pull Wei Zhitong to escape purely because she was a human, and had nothing to do with anything else.
“Yangyang and I have it in our bags!” You You said as she took off her backpack.
They didn’t use it before because they were worried that Su Fan’s flashlight would run out of battery. If they used all their flashlights, it was very likely that no one would have any battery in the second half of the night, and they would have to walk around in a dark place.
“What do we do now?” As You You handed the flashlight to Su Fan, she said worriedly,” We’re not leaving the valley, right? If we encounter another mudslide…”
She wasn’t sure if she could run faster than the mudslide if she had to run for her life again.
“Yes.” Su Fan nodded. Just in case, he decided not to go into the valley.” Go back along the mountainside.””
“Which direction?” Luo Yangyang looked around. The trees around her seemed to look the same. She had been running for so long that she almost lost her sense of direction.
“Follow me, this way.” Su Fan raised his hand and patted Luo Yangyang’s backpack as if to comfort her.
The five people who had just escaped from the disaster walked along the mountainside with a flashlight under Su Fan’s lead.
The helicopter that was flying in the air quickly flew over the mountain where the mudslide had occurred.
“Saint, there is light on the mountainside.” As Chun Yucheng spoke, he drove the helicopter closer to that direction..
