Chapter 874: Digging her out
" You can leave me here," Li Hanjing groaned in pain as he looked at the snow which was crashing down on the village, he knew that the entire village was covered with snow and it was already hard enough for one person to walk on the snow-covered paths, with him as an added baggage there was a chance that Yu Dong might not be able to get to the bunker which she asked the villagers to dig earlier on.
Yu Dong breathed out as she replied, " Just hold on tight, don't worry too much and keep a focus on your breathing."
As she spoke she turned to look at the crumbling snow and gritted her teeth before summoning her spiritual energy as she parted her cold and said, " Hey, Brother Hanjing for the time being act like you cannot see anything all right?"
" Hmm?" Even though Li Hanjing's head was spinning wildly because of the pain, he understood everything that Yu Dong was saying, his lips parted as he looked at Yu Dong with confusion in his eyes. He wanted to say something but before he could even bring himself to speak, he saw that the snow which was still at the bottom of the mountain was now heading straight towards him and Yu Dong with a worrying speed, with no barricades to stop it, the snow which was crashing down did not take long to reach the two of them who were left behind since most of the villagers were already inside the bunker.
" Leave…me," He uttered those words just as the pile of thick snow covered them. Li Hanjing was sure that he was going to get crushed with snow and die after freezing to death but when he opened his eyes surprisingly he was not covered with snow instead the snow surrounded him and Yu Dong in a globe-like form while the inside of this small globe was rather warm which eased his contractions a little. " Thi…This?"
He was stunned when he looked at the globe which was covering them but before he could ask anything else Yu Dong placed her finger on her lips and then said," Remember, you did not see anything all right?"
Though Li Hanjing was stunned he realized what Yu Dong was trying to tell him and he nodded in understanding. He was not a fool, Yu Dong had allowed him to take a peek at her secret, it would be too unfair of him if he was to make use of her secret for his gain which was why he closed his eyes and pretended to faint.
This way, he will not have to answer anyone's questions.
On the other side when the villagers saw that Yu Dong and Li Hanjing were buried in the snow, they immediately screamed. Even though Shen Li knew that his wife was not a normal human, his face still could not help but turn paler than the snow as he looked at the pile of snow which was covering the entire village including his wife.
He did not care if Yu Dong could get out of the snow on her own and still ran towards her.
" Dong Dong!"
" Dong Dong!"
The others also reacted, they did not care that they needed to use the oil-lit torches at all, all they cared about was finding Yu Dong. That woman was the light of the village, only she could lead them out of this trouble, if she died then what will happen to them?
Only Old Man Tong shamelessly occupied a warm corner of the bunker and refused to go out, in his eyes it was Yu Dong who foolishly tried to save that mer whose worth was lower than the copper coin thrown on the street, so why should he bully his old limbs to go and look for her? She deserved it for acting as a hero!
Chen Mi who watched his wife get buried under the snow felt his leg go suddenly weak as he fell on the ground but then he handed his son to Grandma Yu and then rushed after Shen Li and Ye Liu who were now digging through the thick snow with their bare hands.
" Dong Dong! Say something anything... I will not be able to live if something happens to you …"
At this moment, Chen Mi felt regretful. For the past few weeks, he had been fighting with Yu Dong, in case something happened to her and if Yu Dong left him when the last thing he told her was that he wanted a divorce what was he going to do? Would he not die of regret every day?!
Ye Liu and Fang Chi also tried to dig through the snow while Xiao Hua somehow managed to find a large piece of a broken log which he used to scope huge amounts of snow which were piled up on the spot where Yu Dong and Li Hanjing were buried.
In the pile of snow, Yu Dong was also digging. However, the snow was too thick and with the plants and trees withering in this cold winter she was not able to summon any of the pointed roots to dig herself out, just as she was getting worried about what to do, she heard Chen Mi and Shen Li's voice.
Great! They were here!
Her eyes lit up as she pushed herself to the feet and then curled her hands around her mouth as she shouted in the direction of her husbands. " Ah Li, Mi! Liu! Chi! Stop digging and bring me the groundhogs which I brought with me. They must have followed you under the guidance of the calf and the goat! Those round furry things with sharp teeth and claws!"
Yu Dong knew that even if her husbands dug with all their might, they might not be able to dig her out along with Li Hanjing but those groundhogs which were influenced by her spiritual energy were different! They could definitely dig through this snow as long as they were given the spiritual water!
