"Duh... duh duh... duh duh duh... duh duh duh duh!"
Tan Wenbin, holding the crank, quickly turned it to start the tractor.
Once everyone was seated, Tan Wenbin drove the tractor along the mountain road.
Behind them, the Miao village lay in slumber after the celebrations.
Li Zhiyuan sat in the back compartment, looking up at the starry sky.
As they approached the lake, Li Zhiyuan closed his eyes, breaking his moment of peace.
"Get ready."
Everyone began checking their equipment.
Xue Liangliang, who sat in the driver's seat with Tan Wenbin, took over the tractor handle for this final stretch.
They arrived at the lakeside.
Li Zhiyuan, holding a compass, confirmed the position and selected a spot for entering the water and the direction for diving.
Run Sheng crouched down to carry the boy on his back, then leaped into the lake.
Lin Shuyou and Yin Meng followed closely behind.
