Lunch ended more than half an hour later. When Zhang Xu finished washing the dishes and returned to the house, he said to the little girl: "I have to go on a mountain patrol. If I don't come back at night, you can go to bed first without waiting for me."
"Is mountain patrol dangerous?"
"It's okay. It's generally not dangerous."
"Then please pay attention to your safety. I will wait for you to come back in the dormitory."
Zhang Xu agreed after hearing what the little girl said, and then he left the dormitory and walked towards the office building.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Xiaoxiao put down the book in her hand and looked out the window. She saw heavy snow falling in the sky again, and she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
So she immediately got dressed and got out of bed, then took out a straw hat from the space and put it on her head, then went out and walked towards the office building.
When she came to the office building, she happened to meet the gray cat coming out of the office, so she asked the gray cat: "Do you know where Zhang Xu is patrolling the mountains?"
"I know, it's on the east mountain, but why do you ask?"
"I plan to find Zhang Xu."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the gray cat immediately slapped his mouth with his hand, and then said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Master Xiao, the mountain is very dangerous now, and you are not familiar with the terrain on the mountain. If you just If you rush up the mountain to find the boss like this, I'm afraid you will be in danger."
"There will be no danger."
"Who can guarantee it? So I suggest you not to go up the mountain, just stay at the base and wait for the boss to come back."
Lu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips after hearing what Gray Cat said, and then said, "I don't have to go up, but you have to take me to the foot of the mountain to wait for Zhang Xu."
"Okay, but you have to wait for me and I'll get something."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing the gray cat's words, and then after the gray cat left, she stood quietly waiting for the gray cat to come back.
A few minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao saw Gray Cat walking towards her with two coir raincoats, so she asked Gray Cat, "Where did you get these coir raincoats?"
"I don't know, it's made of wood. Can you wear it?"
"Yes." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he took the coir raincoat from Gray Cat's hand and quickly put it on.
After she put on the raincoat, she looked towards the gray cat and saw that the gray cat had also put on the raincoat, so she said to the gray cat: "Let's go."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the gray cat said hello, and then she took Lu Xiaoxiao towards the foot of the east mountain.
More than half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao and Gray Cat arrived at the foot of the east mountain. Then she looked at the entire mountain forest covered with snow, and her heart sank even more.
So she asked the gray cat: "Is Zhang Xu familiar with this mountain forest?"
"Of course we are familiar with it. No one in the entire base is more familiar with the mountains nearby than the boss, because we were all patrolled by the boss in the beginning.
Originally, there was no need for the boss to participate in this mountain patrol, but the boss said that the weather this year was very weird, and he was afraid of any accidents, so he led the team to patrol the mountain by himself. "
Lu Xiaoxiao said nothing more after hearing what Gray Cat said, but stood straight in front of the mountain waiting for Zhang Xu.
More than half an hour later, the gray cat helped Lu Xiaoxiao pat the snow off his coir raincoat, and then he persuaded Lu Xiaoxiao: "Master Xiao, the boss will not come back so early, so you go back first and wait for the boss to come back. I'll ask him to find you immediately."
Lu Xiaoxiao shook her head after hearing what Gray Cat said, and then said, "I'll wait a little longer. If they haven't come back by nightfall, I'll go back with you."
Seeing that Lu Xiaoxiao had already said this, Gray Cat couldn't say anything else, so he continued to stand under the tree not far away.
