219: Chapter 219 One kiss each, and we're even!

Very good!

The power of a role model is infinite!

With Yaro as a successful example, things would be much easier from here on out.

"Stay where you are and maintain vigilance."

Qin Feng replied calmly into the walkie-talkie, then turned to face the remaining female prisoners.

He began rebinding their hands, ensuring that three people could pass through safely at a time.

As for trying to escape?

That was non-existent!

In this minefield of death, only the places marked with flags were paths to survival.

Running around was no different from suicide, and it might even trigger a chain reaction, sending everyone to the sky.

"You three, go first!" Qin Feng put away his dagger and pointed at the minefield.

"Don't play any tricks; choose between life and death yourselves."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a heavy threat.

At that moment, the three female prisoners hesitated again.

They looked at each other, none of them willing to be the next one to take the risk.

It wasn't just the minefield; it was also the fear of the Dragon Country.

That fear had long been deeply rooted in their hearts.

They had been exposed to terrifying descriptions of the Dragon Country since they were children.

They had a deep sense of dread for that place, just like the minefield before them.

"If we go to the Dragon Country... what will happen to us?" a timid art troupe soldier's voice trembled.

"I heard... they put prisoners in terrifying concentration camps..."

"I would rather die here than go to that place and be humiliated!"

Despair birthed courage, but it also birthed stupidity.

Qin Feng watched this group of dawdling women, his brows furrowed.

I'm giving you a way to live, but you won't take it. You insist on dancing on the edge of the Bridge of Helplessness, right?

My military merit is about to be in hand, and you're still here whining!

"My patience is limited."

Qin Feng's voice turned cold. He pulled a pistol from his waist and disengaged the safety.

With a crisp "click," the sound was exceptionally jarring in the silent Gobi Desert.

The female prisoners' whispering stopped abruptly, and fear once again gripped their throats.

"I'll say it one more time: move out."

Qin Feng's muzzle lowered slightly, pointing at the Gobi Desert in front of them.

"Or, I can send you on your way; I guarantee it will be painless and very fast."

The threat of death was far more real than the fear of the unknown.

The female prisoners trembled, their faces pale.

But even so, they remained huddled together like a flock of frightened quails, no one daring to take the first step.

Qin Feng's gaze turned completely cold.

He hated this kind of time-wasting dawdling the most.

His eyes swept across the crowd and finally landed on Tuoya.

This woman had been full of hostility toward him from the very beginning, and the resentment in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Very good, you'll do.

Killing the chicken to warn the monkey—this trick was the most effective.

"You, come out." Qin Feng gestured with the muzzle of his gun at Tuoya.

Tuoya's body stiffened abruptly; she hadn't expected this demon to call her name first.

She shrank back in terror, trying to hide in the crowd.

"Don't force me to do it." Qin Feng had no more patience.

The surrounding women scattered to both sides as if avoiding a plague, exposing Tuoya alone under the muzzle of the gun.

"No... I don't want to..." Tuoya screamed in terror, tears and snot streaming down her face.

"I don't want to go to the Dragon Country! I don't want to go through the minefield! Please, I beg you, spare me!"

"Spare you?" Qin Feng's mouth curled into a cruel arc. "I'll just blow your brains out right now!"

The next second!

Qin Feng backhanded her across the face, and the world was instantly quiet.

Tuoya was struck so hard she saw stars, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, and she was completely dazed.

"Now, start walking."

Qin Feng pressed the muzzle against her forehead and threatened, "Start walking! If you dare to take one wrong step, I'll shoot immediately!"

Tuoya could feel the killing intent of the man behind her.

This guy was a complete lunatic!

Fear overcame everything.

Tuoya was desperate!

She looked tremblingly at her once-best companions; it was they who had pushed her out one by one.

Life or death, it was all in a single thought.

When she went completely crazy! She closed her eyes and stepped toward the area marked with flags.

At that moment, the hearts of the other female prisoners jumped into their throats.

Seconds ticked by.

No explosion!

There really was no explosion!

Even Tuoya opened her eyes and turned to look at the Chef.

Qin Feng just shook the gun slightly, signaling her to continue.

The next scene went much more smoothly.

Emboldened, Tuoya carefully made her way through the minefield.

She succeeded!

The subsequent process was much simpler.

Although the remaining female prisoners were still a bit scared, they set off in twos and threes, maintaining a safe distance between each other.

Half a day later, only Qin Feng and Lanna remained at the edge of the minefield.

At this moment, Lanna touched her injured leg, feeling a bit nervous.

"Hey, Chef." Lanna suddenly spoke up.

"Hmm?"

Qin Feng was checking the fuses and springs in his backpack while leading Chiyan.

"I know you stayed until now because my leg is injured."

Lanna's voice was very soft but exceptionally clear.

"I'll walk by myself in a moment; you don't need to worry about me. If... if I step on the wrong spot, you absolutely must not come over."

Qin Feng's hands paused, and he looked up, meeting Lanna's azure blue eyes.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Feng frowned. "After all this time, you still don't trust me?"

"I trust you, but I don't trust my leg." Lanna shook her head.

Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she limped over to the Chef, stood on tiptoe, and wrapped her arms around his neck without a word.

Her soft, warm lips pressed onto his.

Qin Feng was stunned.

He could clearly feel Lanna's rapid heartbeat and her slightly trembling body.

Holy crap! This Russian Girl is for real!

In broad daylight, with a bunch of people watching on the other side! How inappropriate!

But... it felt pretty good...

After a long while, they parted.

Lanna's cheeks were flushed with an unnatural crimson.

"Bastard, you kissed me on your own initiative once, and now I've done it once too. We're even!"

Bold!

The beauties of the Bear Country are not just ordinarily bold.

It was so bold that it gave Qin Feng the illusion that he wasn't here to escape for his life, but to pick up girls!

After saying this, Lanna turned and wanted to walk into the minefield.

Qin Feng grabbed her wrist; his strength wasn't great, but it was impossible to break free.

"Alright, are you done acting?" he said, missing the romantic mood.

"You're making it sound like a life-or-death parting; anyone who didn't know better would think you were going to blow up a bunker."

"Follow behind me, don't go stepping around randomly!"

Lanna looked at the Chef's serious expression, and she was so angry she wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.

"You heartless jerk!"

She rolled her eyes at him fiercely, but she didn't struggle anymore, letting him lead her.

"Too much nonsense." Qin Feng didn't let go; instead, he walked in front.

He took every step firmly while keeping a constant eye on Lanna behind him with his peripheral vision.

"Left foot, follow my footprints, right."

"Slow down, don't rush."

"If you're tired, just say so, and we'll rest for two minutes."

Lanna took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and limped along after him.

On the other side of the minefield, the female prisoners had all stood up, holding their breath and stretching their necks, all of them waiting impatiently.

Yaro's fists had unconsciously clenched tight, her palms full of sweat.

She found herself actually praying for that pervert.

This thought startled her.

In the corner of the crowd, however, a glimmer of resentment flashed in Tuoya's eyes.

She quietly bent down, and while no one was paying attention, she picked up a stone from the ground and hid it behind her back.

The smug smile on the corner of her mouth was probably harder to suppress than an AK.

Almost there, almost there.

Just a little closer!

Then she would throw the stone!

And blow you all to hell!
