"There's nobody else? Are they gone?"
The woman mumbled in surprise. Her face was filled with grief at this thought. "Perhaps they gave up on me. After all, in a place like this, how would they return to search for me after a night's absence?"
"We've saved you, that's it! Goodbye." Song Ming took her to the side, near the tree, and cupped his fists in a salute.
"You're leaving me here?" The woman seemed to be taken aback by his words. She bit her lips and asked, "Can you take me partway? If you leave me here, I may die at any time. "
"But all I was going to do was get you out of that tree. I didn't intend to take you with us. It's different from my original purpose." Song Ming waved his hand. "Besides, we're men and can't take a woman like you along. Rescuing you is a great feat already, so don't make it difficult for us any more."
With that, Song Ming looked at Feng Jiu and others. "Let's go!"
