1122: Ye Jian's Strength

Ye Jian's Strength

Now knowing that she had to avoid them, she became more cautious. If there was no time for her to cover her tracks, she had to not leave any traces before moving. Ye Jian endured hunger all the way and did not eat for a whole afternoon before she pulled her distance away from the soldiers.1

On the second day of 'escape from death' training, Ye Jian starved continuously.

Grass roots are edible food while walking. Having relied on them to replenish her energy for five hours of walking, Ye Jian removed two bird nests and ate six small eggs.

She ate half a slice of raw snake meat in the morning, drank stream water at noon, ate grass roots in the afternoon, and had six eggs for dinner!

There was no way for her to relax now. Soldiers were chasing her. She had to be on guard at all times to avoid being discovered.

"Three of you, flank here. The two of you will cut off the road ahead. I will attack with Rock. Focus!" Once again, Team A discovered Ye Jian's tracks and began to form a triangle formation and move towards the direction of her resting area.

And Team B, who managed to catch up, will proceed to attack directly, in a bid to rattle her and catch her by surprise.

In the evening, the golden clouds on the edge of the sky plunged into the sea, and the sky darkened, consuming the last ray of sunlight. Ye Jian, who was resting while leaning on a tree, suddenly rushed down the steep mountain like an arrow leaving its bow. Her speed was so fast that leaves swept by her ears. She was not afraid of the branches and leaves stabbing or cutting her!

"Damn!" The soldiers who were still lurking in the bushes saw her desperately rushing down, and they immediately tightened their rucksack and followed.

Captain Xiao and Captain Ding led the team and followed the sound of swishing leaves, rushing down the mountain without any regard for their lives.

"Flank, flank! Three each on the right and left! The rest go straight and give chase!" Before the fourteen of them dispersed completely, Captain Ding said to Captain Xiao, "If we don't catch her tonight, it will be difficult tomorrow!"

Ye Jian realized that someone was approaching and ran onto the route that she was going to take tomorrow. Not only did she have to run, but she also had to run to a place with a slightly wider view, but she also had to turn her head and look at the mountains under the night sky.

Otherwise, she would not be able to draw her topographic map!

The map that was given to her was not a city map that was bought outside, it was one with the contour lines! She wanted to draw a map herself, and that can only be done by observing the surroundings.

Ye Jian took twenty-seven minutes to reach the mountain saddle from the ridge. She ran for nearly half an hour without stopping when she was hungry!

The soldiers were still chasing. Ye Jian did not continue to run. After leaving some distance from the soldiers, she quickly found a place to seek cover. There were too many soldiers. She had to get rid of a few of them secretly. There are still five days left. She cannot possibly keep running around the mountain and forest in the middle of the night.

Although the left and right flanks were surrounding Ye Jian, the soldiers were spread out and she could deal with them secretly with ease.

She already found a cover, and quickly got up when she heard nearby movement. She approached silently. "Don't move!" The dagger was already on the soldier's back when he turned around. A cold voice reached the soldier's ears. "You're dead."

The dagger was already at his vital point. How is he not 'dead'?

Ye Jian motioned for him to squat down, and laughed, "You can rest now, comrade."

…

He did not want to rest like this!
