In just an instant, everyone's faces became solemn.

The flashing shock seemed to be just an illusion of people.

Lin Qingshuang and the person in charge of the Sheng family took the lead in eye meeting, and they both had grim faces, "You can't stay here for a long time, the sinkhole formed by the collapse of the ground can easily cause a secondary collapse ......"

The man nodded and began to count the numbers.

After the integration was completed, everyone took a step towards the entrance of the sinkhole.

The group with the stone carvings was firmly in the middle of the team, and Lin Qingshuang was responsible for the aftermath because of his inconvenient legs and feet.

The group walked slowly in the deep pit, the sun above their heads rose higher and higher, and the temperature around them began to heat up.

The road that was extraordinarily easy when it came seemed extraordinarily far away at the moment. There was a lot of fog in the sinkhole, and the fog began to dissipate under the sunlight.

The sinkhole is like an empty desert, with no borders in sight, only the clear sky above, proving that everyone is not in nothingness.

Suddenly, the road surface in the sinkhole began to shake violently, and the person leading the way in front was forced to stop.

With the violently shaking ground, everyone's bodies swayed like broken candles, and the abnormal movement under their feet continued to continue, Lin Qingshuang's face turned pale, and he grabbed the hand on his side, and shouted at the team, "Run!"

However, in the case of such a strong vibration, Lin Qingshuang's feet seemed to be stepping on cotton, and running undoubtedly became the most difficult and powerless thing.

Lin Qingshuang endured the severe pain in her legs, tightly clutched the little sun and heart beside her, and pulled them to run inside the empty sinkhole.

However, the sudden disaster caught everyone off guard, and the group almost stumbled in a few steps, Lin Qingshuang gritted his teeth and barely managed to stabilize his body to avoid falling, and tightly supported the two people with soft feet to flee towards the periphery of the earthquake.

The muscles of the thighs were hesitant and forcedly tightened, and they had already begun to cramp, and Lin Qingshuang's injured calf hurt even more to the bones, but now he couldn't relax in the slightest.

If you fall here, you will not be able to escape to death.

Lin Qingshuang's heart was extremely clear, she wondered in her heart, was it an earthquake, or did the ground collapse a second time? No matter what the situation was now, they were all on the edge of danger, and they could only try their best to escape in order to avoid the approaching danger.

The area around the sinkhole began to collapse one after another, and everyone gathered together, watching the entrance being covered by the collapse, and despair rose in their hearts.

After a long time, the shaking of the mountain calmed down.

The fall of the stone caused the sinkhole to be filled with fog-like dust, and in the face of the sudden vibration, everyone was embarrassed by the use of their hands and feet.

"Ahem......"

Coughs and lamentations rang out from the sinkhole, and for a moment, the sinkhole became the most desperate place.

"Sister Qingshuang......" Xiao Sun wiped the dust on her face and looked at her with a worried face, "What should we do?"

Lin Qingshuang patted the dust on her body, stood up with her calves pinched tightly, and patted her head comfortingly, "You're not hurt, are you?"

As the words fell, she turned her head to look at the same embarrassed heart.

Seeing that both of them shook their heads, they were relieved and went to check the rest of the personnel.

Everyone's vigilance was very high, and as soon as they heard the run, they immediately turned around and went back, and some of them just scratched their skin on the way to run, and there were no major casualties.

Lin Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen's employees watched her limp, carefully checking the number of people in the team and comforting her, but they had a great sense of security for this woman who looked extremely weak.

The entrance was sealed, and the people of the Sheng clan began to panic.

A sinkhole is not as flat as the ground, there will be many times if there is a collapse, and if there is no timely rescue, it is only a matter of time before they are buried.

After Lin Qingshuang comforted her members, she also comforted them, her cold voice sounded in the sinkhole, but there was an inexplicable shock and stability, "The entrance is sealed, and now there is no way to get out by our own strength, the other stone carvings have collapsed and buried deep underground, what about us?"

"Here!" Seeing her gaze asking, the group in charge of carrying it raised their hands and signaled.

Although they were scared when the earthquake was strong, they were still very well protected for the stone carvings.

Without the stone carvings, their line of work would be basically meaningless.

Seeing that the stone carving was intact, Lin Qingshuang settled down and nodded, "The most important thing now is to get in touch with the outside world, the signal is definitely not very stable now, and you need people with two convenient legs to try around to see if you can call out." The rest of the group gathered together, maintained their strength, and bandaged the injured first to stop the bleeding, all we can do now is wait. ”

Everyone responded, they knew that what Lin Qingshuang said was the truth, and they had to wait.

After the arrangement was completed, Lin Qingshuang also sat down next to the stone, exhausted, and a trace of weakness rose from top to bottom.

The man who was always paying attention to the field group felt a little uneasy when he found that the GPS was motionless in the sinkhole.

He didn't hesitate at the moment, and called a group of people to set off with rescue tools.

When he received the distress call, he was walking in the direction of the sinkhole with people.

Hearing the news of the collapse of the sinkhole, the man immediately thought of the woman's face, and for the first time he felt a little flustered in his heart.

My heart was inexplicably anxious, and I walked forward without saying a word with a cold face, but my steps were much faster.

The entrance was tightly sealed, and after the unremitting efforts of the group, the entrance to the cave was finally opened.

Sheng Yixing did not hesitate, and entered the sinkhole first, looking for the figure of the woman as far as the eye could see.

As soon as he entered, he saw a woman curled up beside the rocks, her face as pale as paper, her petite body trembling constantly.

Sheng Yixing's heart was suffocated, he was still dressed in dark clothes, cold and straight, his handsome and cold face was so gloomy that he could drip water, and the whole person exuded a daunting cold and cold aura.

He looked at the woman who was huddled like a frightened cat, her eyes darkened, her thin lips pursed into a straight line, and she walked straight with her long legs.

From the moment this man appeared, he exuded a silent but powerful aura.

Sheng Yixing put his arm on her shoulders, took off his clothes and draped them over her.

The man's movements were meticulous and focused, even if Lin Qingshuang frowned and wanted to dodge, he sat on his hand as if he didn't see it.

The pain in her leg could no longer be contained, she gritted her teeth and broke out in a cold sweat, although she didn't want the man to touch, she couldn't push him away. She could only let the man help her tidy up her messy clothes that were wrapped vigorously, and then smoothly pulled the hair on her forehead behind her ears.

The cold and tall man squatted down in front of Lin Qingshuang, his fingers fell on her knees, and his voice was low and silent, "My leg hurts again?

It is an inquiry, but the meaning of the inquiry is very light.

Lin Qingshuang didn't speak, and at this moment, she couldn't pay attention to what the man said.

Sheng Yixing looked at her pale little face, feeling the unbearable pain of the woman, so he didn't ask anymore, leaned over and directly wrapped around her waist, and picked her up from the chair.

Sheng's employees were just about to step forward to talk to their boss, but when they saw the boss's action, their thoughts fell on Lin Qingshuang.

At that moment, they didn't say anything more, and watched the tall and cold man walk out with the woman in his arms in his arms.

The relationship between the two is a thin layer of window paper in the eyes of everyone.

Seeing such a scene at this moment, there is a lot of discussion.

Sheng Yixing hugged the silent woman out of the sinkhole without saying a word, Rao is this long mountain road, and the man did not stagnate in the slightest.

The group followed behind, silent.

Finally arrived at the bus at the foot of the mountain, Sheng Yixing put Lin Qingshuang on the seat.

The evening breeze in the mountains swept slightly, with a slight coolness.

After settling Lin Qingshuang, Sheng Yixing got out of the car and told everyone.

Lin Qingshuang was in unbearable pain, and he didn't pay attention to a sharp gaze that fell on him from the corner.

That was the leader of the Sheng project team, Sun Chenxiao.

The woman who sat in the corner and came with the rescue team looked at Sheng Yixing and Lin Qingshuang so intimately, her fingers were clenched tightly in her palms, and her face sank slightly.

After Sheng Yixing arranged everyone, they got into the car and sat next to Lin Qingshuang.

The man's coat was given to Lin Qingshuang, and there was only a dark gray thin coat on his body, which could not be seen in texture, but he was wearing it with the handsome and cold of a noble son.

He leaned over Lin Qingshuang, his slender and bony fingers fastening the seat belt for the woman in the seat.

The man's breath was clean and cold, and there was a silent silence in the car.

Lin Qingshuang turned away a little uncomfortably, and after a moment of silence, she said lightly, "Thank you." ”

Sheng Yixing stared at the woman with drooping eyes, squinted and did not speak.

Lin Qingshuang hugged the man's clothes on his body, leaned his head on the back of the chair, closed his eyes to rest, and spoke weakly, "Sumerian stone carvings were found in the sinkhole, and this stone carving records relevant materials of the Sumerian era, which is very likely to bring new progress to the project and a closer understanding of Sumerian civilization." ”

"Manpower is limited, so we only brought the stone carving about the dynasty inheriting the emperor, and the rest ......" Lin Qingshuang paused, the scene of collapse flashed in front of his eyes, and his heart was depressed, "The rest are buried deep underground." ”

Sheng Yixing nodded, he knew Lin Qingshuang's pity, but on the contrary, he was a little more happy.

He didn't know exactly what he was thankful for.

After everyone got into the car one after another, the accompanying doctor began to examine everyone's body.

Lin Qingshuang's leg injury was very serious, and during the careful pinching and examination by the accompanying doctor, she couldn't help but snort.

Sheng Yixing's gaze on the side fell on the woman's pale little face, and his face was very tight.

The accompanying doctor felt a trace of pressure, then cleared his throat and replied, "Miss Lin's leg injury has recurred, it looks more serious, and the specific treatment will be done after the hotel." ”

"yes, I see. ”

The man's face was expressionless, but the air pressure was lowered.

After the doctor's examination, he sat in the car.

Everyone didn't say a word, but they always paid attention to the every move of the two people in the front row.

Xiao Sun and Xinxin were fine, they were originally very worried about Lin Qingshuang, but now they were relieved to see Mr. Sheng so carefully.

However, Sheng's employees widened their eyes one by one, as if they had seen something frightening.

They have always been cold and treacherous Mr. Sheng, and their meticulous and gentle actions just now made everyone's scalps tingle.

If it is said that because of the previous relationship, it is like this to Lin Qingshuang.

But the nervous emotions in the man's eyes are too strange.

The bus had been going for a long time, and everyone had experienced a collapse accident and walked so many roads, and everyone was exhausted and slumped in their seats.

Lin Qingshuang lay on the chair even more weakly, endured the pain in her legs, and fell into a deep sleep in a daze.

Sheng Yixing sat quietly on the side, his eyes bright.

There was the sound of a woman's even breathing beside her, watching her follow the bumps of the bus, and she was sleeping extremely unsteadily.

Sheng Yixing wanted to reach out and hug her several times, but in the end he held back.

Pain and fear can be mentally and mentally draining, especially in situations of chaos and despair.

Lin Qingshuang slept very badly, and her grogginess made people feel uncomfortable.

Finally arrived at the hotel, and the bottom of the group's hearts was realized.

Xiao Sun and Xinxin stepped forward and wanted to wake up Lin Qingshuang, but they were stopped by the man beside him, the man's voice was low and full of distance, "I'll send her back, you guys go back to rest early!"

Lin Qingshuang frowned, looking at the man's good-looking face, and couldn't understand his thoughts.

She was powerless to refuse, and Lin Qingshuang knew that this man was not the type who would listen to her.

Tired, let him go.

Xiao Sun and Xinxin nodded, and did not force it again.

The man grabbed Lin Qingshuang's waist with his big hand, hugged her horizontally, and sent her back to the hotel room in person.

"Thank you, Mr. Sheng, I want to rest if it's okay!" After returning to the room, Lin Qingshuang sat on the bed and looked at the man in front of him tiredly, and gave an eviction order.

No matter what kind of mind this man had, she didn't have the energy to deal with it.

Sheng Yixing raised his eyes and his gaze fell on the woman's cold face, and his eyebrows wrinkled invisibly.

This is the second time she's said thank you to herself today.

The night he was drugged was still intimate and ambiguous, but at this moment he suddenly felt indescribably distant.

Sheng Yixing turned his head sideways, his indifferent gaze was slightly on her lap, and a cold voice sounded in the room, "You don't have to go out into the wild later, I will communicate with Shen Nanxian." ”

Lin Qingshuang looked at him, her tone was weak, but the resistance in her eyes was extremely obvious, "Mr. Sheng, what you said doesn't count." ”

Sheng Yixing stood in the room, his eyes were sharp and knowledgeable through Lin Qingshuang's resistance, and there was no thought on his indifferent face.

The atmosphere in the room was a little weird, Lin Qingshuang was tired, turned around and lay down with his back to the man.

The woman lying down was extremely unhappy in her heart, she knew that Sheng Yixing was staring at her at the moment, full of breath but nowhere to go.

After a long time, Lin Qingshuang heard a click behind him.

My heart was suddenly relieved, and the man finally left.

The room was quiet, and she fell asleep deeply.

In a daze, I heard the voice of a man talking.

Lin Qingshuang opened her eyes, and her consciousness gradually cleared.

Sheng Yixing brought the doctor to show her leg, although she was unhappy, she didn't say anything.

"Miss Lin, can you let me check on your condition?" the doctor asked, putting down the medical box in his hand and sitting on the side.

Lin Qingshuang did not hesitate, reached out and pulled her trouser leg above her knees, revealing her fair and delicate legs.

Her calves were already swollen at the moment, and coupled with the bruises and purples from that day, the whole thing looked extremely terrifying.

Sheng Yixing furrowed his brows, looked at the woman's scarred calves, and asked coldly, "How is the situation?"

The doctor pressed a little on the leg, carefully examined the wound, and groaned slightly, "Miss Lin's leg is an old disease, and the recurrence of the leg injury must be unbearable, the only thing I can do now is to eliminate the swelling and pain, I will prescribe some medicine for her first, and rub it every night before going to bed to activate the meridians." ”

Lin Qingshuang nodded and replied, "Thank you, doctor." ”

She knew her own leg that she had been taking painkillers before, and Su Linyun also prescribed some for her to prepare, and she forgot about the past two days.

I didn't expect it to relapse when I rushed to Noide.

The doctor shook his head with a smile, and said by the way, "Yes, the ointment that Miss Lin prescribed to you is also very effective for the strangulation marks on these ropes on your legs, and they will get better soon." ”

Lin Qingshuang looked at the doctor suspiciously, and muttered, "Rope strangulation? I'm not ......."

Traces of violence?

Her appearance made the doctor stunned, "Yes, aren't these bruises on your legs made by rope? ”

Stranding marks of the rope?

So?

Lin Qingshuang subconsciously glanced at the man next to him who was speechless, then turned his head to the doctor and smiled, "It's okay, thank you." ”

After the doctor left, Lin Qingshuang's eyes fell on Sheng Yixing's body, and she wanted to open her mouth but didn't know how to ask, and she hesitated for a while.

Sheng Yixing sat down across from her, and the man asked in a low voice, "Have something to tell me?"

"Can't I look at you if I'm fine?"

"Yes, but I look at you like you have something to ask. ”

Lin Qingshuang didn't know how the man guessed, but it was.

She bit her lip and said with an unnatural expression, "The wound on my body is tied with a rope?"

The man raised his hand to play with the glass in front of him, and his tone was unfazed, "Huh?

Lin Qingshuang looked at his grim face, "Why? Isn't it your ......?"

"What am I?" Sheng Yixing raised his eyes and asked rhetorically, "What do you think I can do like that? I don't want to rape corpses." ”

The indifference in his words was not heavy, but it seemed to seep out of his bones.

Lin Qingshuang looked away in embarrassment, although she had guessed it just now, and now she really didn't know what to say when she heard the man like this.

Should she be glad that the man had the last respect, or should she be glad that she was a corpse in his eyes?

Sheng Yixing looked at her, his brows furrowed, and at the end he gave an understatement in the end, "That night, someone was driven by desire, and there was no way to tie you up. ”

In the end, I felt that I was a little inexplicable, so I silenced my face calmly.

Lin Qingshuang had nothing to say, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she also called her to help her, right?

Otherwise, how could she wake up and the rope was gone.

Sometimes this man's approach makes people cold to the bone, and sometimes they are unbelievably meticulous.

"You don't have to go to the field project, just stay in the city and help with the research and dissertation. ”

Sheng Yixing lightly threw the folder on the bed on the side, turned around and walked out.

When was this brought over?

Lin Qingshuang looked at the folder in her hand, and her eyes fell on the door a little inexplicably.

However, after seeing the project, I quickly returned to my senses and focused, and it was fortunate that I was able to bring back the Sumerian stone carvings before they collapsed.

After reading the documents in her hand, Lin Qingshuang was about to lie on the bed and rest for a while, when Shen Nanxian's phone called.

She stared at the two words Mr. Shen on the mobile phone screen, her eyes were a little helpless, she took a deep breath and answered the phone loudly, "Mr. Shen, every time you call, you just pinch the time, do you send someone to stare at me?"

The man on the other end of the phone chuckled lowly, "Excuse me?" ”

Although the tone was flat, it inevitably revealed a low level of concern, Lin Qingshuang couldn't help but squint her eyes, and only then pursed her lips and said, "We found the Sumerian stone carving this time, if the text on it is completely cracked, it will be better for the development of the project." ”

Shen Nanxian nodded and praised, "I heard, Qingshuang, you are really great!"

No one doesn't want to be praised, let alone a person like Lin Qingshuang who hasn't been out of the wild for a long time, so he is naturally happy in his heart.

"No matter what, you still have to pay more attention to your body. ”

"I know. ”

"I heard about the second collapse of the sinkhole this time, your leg was originally injured, and the part of the project will be handed over to you, can you do it?"

"No problem. Lin Qingshuang pursed her lips, and her eyes dimmed.

Shen Nanxian's hearing was naturally from Sheng Yixing.

Ignoring the man's cold warning tone, he didn't want Lin Qingshuang to be injured alone.

"Questions?"

"No, Mr. Shen, don't worry, I will do my job well. ”

"Get plenty of rest and pay attention to your body. Finally, Shen Nanxian hung up the phone.

Lin Qingshuang tiredly threw her phone aside, although she knew in her heart that it was for her good not to let her go out.

But in her heart, she inexplicably had a feeling that she was being manipulated by Sheng Yixing.

Sure enough, no matter where you are, you can't stay away from that man?

What's more, now she really can't understand a man's every move.

Turning off the light, she lay quietly in the bed, and her mind involuntarily thought of the man's movements and embraces when she was in the sinkhole.

Feeling even more disturbed, she pulled the quilt with both hands and buried herself deeply, emptying all her thoughts.
