After resting for three hours, Ye Jian was no longer sleepy. Seeing that her comrades had returned to their tents obediently, she walked to the snow pile that looked like a small mountain. Three hours of shoveling didn’t seem to have any effect on it.
“There’s too much snow on the ground. There were a few snow slides during the shoveling process. They covered the road that we took so much effort to clear up.” Qin Xiu shook his sore wrist gently and looked at Ye Jian. He didn’t seem to be in the mood. “Five hours might not be enough. Although they’re shoveling snow over there, the situation there is probably the same as what’s happening here.”
The snow was connected to the mountain. One side was like a pile of sand. While the other side was shoveling, the snow on the top was sinking. As long as the snow on the mountain was cut off from the pile of snow on the ground, there would no longer be any signs of snow falling.
As they got closer, the snow-white light shone on the side of her face and Qin Xiu could clearly see that her delicate and plump forehead was as smooth as jade. Further down were her long and black eyelashes. With every blink, they were like a small feather lightly scratching his heart.
Just as he was about to take a closer look at her so that he could engrave her face deeper into his heart, the girl who had been looking up suddenly changed her expression. “Quickly retreat!”
When the soldiers heard this, they retreated without hesitation. Ye Jian pulled Qin Xiu’s sleeve and ran away.
Xia Jinyuan, who didn’t know that the scouts in the team were so powerful, suddenly retracted his snow shovel. He grabbed one of his comrades on the right and one on the left. He shouted, “Retreat!”
G3 and Li Jinnian reacted quickly and retreated, only to see the snow at the top of the mountain falling. A minute later, the snow started to pile up like sand.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The sound of snow rang out loud, and the scene in front of them instantly turned white. The fine snowflakes instantly blurred each of their faces.
When the snow mist dispersed, it seemed that the mountain and the snow were cut off. A few searchlights shone on the mountain. Xia Jinyuan signaled his comrades behind him to turn off the searchlights. Then, he turned off his own searchlights too.
They could see the light on the other side. It seemed that J5 and the rest weren’t resting either. They wanted to clear the road tonight.
Soon, the searchlights on the other side went out too. Ye Jian flashed the searchlight continuously. This was the contact number of the Xueyu unit. She was asking if they were safe.
Everything was safe.
J5 and the rest, who were preparing to rest, heard the commotion and ran out again. Even the female soldiers in the female soldiers’ tent ran out. The collapse of the snow was too loud and the ground seemed to be shaking.
“I just contacted my comrades on the other side. They’re all fine. The soldiers said that we don’t have to worry about the snow on the mountain falling again. We just need to clear a path through this pile of snow,” Ye Jian explained to J5. She also explained to Du Jiayi and the rest who were jogging over. They were panting heavily.
Du Jiayi asked Qin Xiu directly, “Reporter Qin, how long will it take to clear the pathway?”
“I’m not sure.” Qin Xiu didn’t really want to talk to Du Jiayi, so he lowered his voice and said in a hoarse voice, “Let’s go with the original five hours.”
“Reporter Qin, you know Ye Jian, the female soldier who saved us. Please give me her contact number. I want to thank her.” Du Jiayi had a purpose for talking to Qin Xiu. She smiled as she spoke. Because she had just woken up, her voice sounded a little sleepy. She was polite and cute.. It was easy to like her.
