Chapter 140: Rescue from the Cliff
Soon, the mountain road became quiet, but there was no insect sound in the middle of the night, and there was no noise in the breeze in his ears, Lin Qiudu tightened his clothes, and he was a little afraid.
It was the first time he had been alone in such a desolate place, and although he was also an out-and-out outdoor enthusiast, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation, which really made him a little difficult to adapt.
grunt
"There won't be wolves in this place, right?" Thinking of the previous time in the dark, the accident that almost killed them made him tremble, and even the urge to urinate came out.
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Lin Qiudu focused his attention on his hearing, carefully distinguishing the sounds that might appear, if there was an abnormal sound in the dark, it was likely to be dangerous, and he had to keep himself in the most vigilant state at any time.
But what did he think about, Lin Qiudu's spirit was tense, it was the state of the wind and the grass and trees, and suddenly there was a sound like nothing, and the weakness made him think that he had auditory hallucinations, but soon the sound came again, and the sound was still very small, and he couldn't tell the direction from which the sound came.
Lin Qiudu had no choice but to look around and ask in a deep voice, "Who is calling?"
After his inquiry, he stopped breathing, paying close attention to the direction of the *sound, but he didn't want the other party to answer him.
If it was Lu Yunfan and the three of them who sent out the *, he could still come forward to rescue, but in case it was some kind of demon or monster, on this big night, he didn't even have a helper, and he didn't know which direction to flee, and he was torn into strips of meat in an instant?
* The sound is intermittent, although the direction cannot be distinguished, but it is not thought to be on the road, the west side is the back mountain, the east side is the cliff, and it can only be the sound from the bottom of the mountain.
Lin Qiudu slowly moved to the side of the road step by step with a flashlight, wanting to look down, but it was dark and high, he was really afraid, so he took off the umbrella rope on the car, tied one end to the tricycle, and tied the other end to his waist, and then lay on the ground again to remove the weeds on the side of the road, and looked for it under the cliff along the straight line pillar of light of the flashlight.
Lu ...... Lu Yunfan, is that you?" Lin Qiudu let go of some psychological defenses, and his voice became much louder. This shout, the sound is like entering an ethereal mountain stream, it is amplified a lot, and there is even an echo, which is similar to the effect of shouting a mountain but is very different.
The three people on the path under the cliff were not far from him, otherwise it would be impossible for such a whisper* to reach the road even if it was by the wind, so the group of six people on the road stayed here for a moment, Lu Yunfan knew all of them clearly, but he didn't know where he bumped into it, he couldn't make a sound at all, and it became much more difficult to breathe with one mouth, so he watched them go away, but fortunately they were not stupid, leaving Lin Qiudu behind, which became his last hope.
Lu Yunfan groped against the rock for a long time and touched the old grandson.
"Old ...... Old Sun, are you okay? Zhang Zhang seems to be dizzy. Lu Yunfan opened his mouth with difficulty, but he still didn't make a sound at all, and the hoarse voice didn't even make him understand what he was saying.
"If yes, give me a look, or I'll go?" At this time, Lin Qiudu's voice came again, Lu Yunfan couldn't speak, and he was anxious, but at this time, the old grandson on his side trembled and got up again.
"In ...... Here, your Lu Yunfan is here, come down and save ...... Save us......" Lao Sun replied intermittently to Lin Qiudu on the cliff, sounding like he was about to lose his breath, but his confidence was still quite strong, and his voice was also very powerful, as if he was the least injured of the three.
"Old Sun, are you Old Sun?" Lin Qiudu asked again on the side of the road.
"Yes...... Yes, yes, it's me, my ancestor!" Lao Sun sat up strongly, groped for a box of matches out of nowhere, lit one with a bang, shook it twice against the cliff, and hurriedly threw it away.
Lin Qiudu was overjoyed and said, "When I see you, I'll put the rope down, and you guys will grab the rope and climb up." ”
Lin Qiudu untied the rope on his body, hesitated for two seconds, tied the flashlight to it, and threw it at the position where the fire flickered just now.
Lao Sun grabbed the rope, took a deep breath, sighed softly, and soon fell silent again, not even the * sound was gone, the flashlight he grabbed in his hand was fixed there motionless, Lu Yunfan wanted to catch it and respond to Lin Qiudu, but before he moved his hand, the flashlight moved again, and suddenly jumped up, hitting Lu Yunfan's head, with a muffled snort, Lu Yunfan fell on the rock behind him again.
Lin Qiudu saw that they didn't take action for a long time, and asked again: "What's the matter? Can you come up? It's very strong, you can rest assured." ”
The sudden disappearance of the sound made him feel a little uneasy, but the voice that replied to him suddenly disappeared like a hallucination, and even the light of the fire just now made him feel a little unreal.
The rope had been lowered, the flashlight had been put down, and the light of the flashlight was still there, and he had just seen that the light of the flashlight had suddenly stopped moving, so he stretched out his hand and pulled it, as if the old grandson who grabbed the flashlight was not a living creature at all.
Lin Qiudu trembled slightly, so he grabbed the rope and pulled it back, as if he was hanging on the withered grass, and then it became loose, so he quickly put the rope and flashlight back, and held it high to look down.
According to the trance-like memory direction, Lin Qiudu found that there was a path in the place near the mountain, and the location of Lu Yunfan and the three of them at the moment was just not up or down, and more than half of the path was covered by wild grass, and it was precisely because these wild grasses were too conspicuous that people could see this path clearly.
Nearly 100 meters below the slope, the three of them fell there crookedly, he couldn't see whether the three were injured, and there was no blood on the ground, but it was still too dangerous to go down alone.
Now he only had a rope in his hand, and if even he was under him by mistake, the four of them would have to wait for the return of the people who had gone to look for him to escape.
But waiting for them to come back right now is not the best thing to do. Lin Qiudu raised his head and looked ahead, where was there still the light of the flashlight, I am afraid that they have already gone several kilometers away.
He had to check the strength of the knot again, gritted his teeth, and slowly walked down the ambiguous path with a flashlight.
The front is narrow and the back is wide, Lin Qiudu walked very carefully, if it goes straight up and down, the rope can also become a booster, but it is different diagonally downward, the rope cannot help at all, it is just a safety rope, so he can't be careless.
Although he didn't know the situation at the bottom of the mountain, there were many sharp stones on the rock wall, and he had already seen it clearly by the light of the flashlight before.
Lu Yunfan slowed down for a long time, and finally felt a little more relaxed, looked up, and saw Lin Qiudu actually walking towards them. The night was too dark, Lao Sun had said before that even he didn't dare to walk this road at night, but now when he saw Lin Qiudu ignoring his own danger, he was suddenly moved in his heart.
The entrance of this road is very narrow, plus the weed-covered place, a total of only more than thirty centimeters, a wrong step may fall, even if there are some sharp stones that can be climbed on the edge of the cliff, it will still make people feel frightened, walk through the entrance four or five meters, the path will be wide, the further down, the wider the path. The place where Lu Yunfan and the three of them fell had even reached half a meter wide, which was one of the reasons why they survived.
"Old grandson... Lao Sun ......" Lu Yunfan could barely make a sound, moved, and felt that his whole body was in pain, but except for the pain of his flesh and skin, there was no pain in his muscles and bones, he coughed a few times, took a deep breath, grabbed Lao Sun's arm and shook it.
"Don't... Don't fucking shake it, I'll... I just want to breathe a sigh of relief......"
"Hey... Well, that's good, I thought... Are you hanging?" Lu Yunfan slapped him heavily on the thigh, and then lay on his body weakly.
"What are you kidding, I can't, you can't, I finally got such a good job, I can't allow a day's salary to be lost. ”
Lao Sun took Lu Yunfan's hand away, lifted his front half of his body, asked him to sit with his back against the rock again, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, how is it? I haven't seen him panting for breath for a long time, won't he fall to death?"
"You... I won't ...... if you die. Die!"
Zhang Li, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, which startled Lu Yunfan, but made Lao Sun laugh.
"Haha, I know... You know, you've met a noble person in this rotten life, I... I'm the same, if we don't die, we will... Must ......"
"Don't beep, you brought this broken road, and it almost killed us. Perhaps because he had accumulated more strength, he spoke very quickly and without interruption.
He stood up against the wall, poked out with his feet, and continued, "It's safe here, let's walk slowly, we should be able to walk back." ”
"the fart... Ah, you... Doesn't it hurt?" asked Lao Sun.
"But I don't want to spend the night here, even if it's safe for the time being, if I fall asleep, I will be really useless to turn over casually. ”
As Zhang Zhang spoke, he began to try to walk back, turned his head, saw the light from Lin Qiudu's flashlight, and said loudly: "Lin Qiudu, you go back and swing the flashlight for us." ”
Lao Sun laughed on the side, and muttered to Lu Yunfan in a low voice: "Lao Zhang, this guy, I didn't expect to be so afraid of death." ”
Lu Yunfan snorted coldly, who is not afraid of death, not to mention that Zhang Zhang has just picked up Sister Xiaohua, it is the critical moment to make his ambitions come true, even if he is not afraid of death, he will never be willing to throw his life in such a broken place.
Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't say it, just gave him a blank look.
Lin Qiudu heard Zhang Li's words, responded, turned around and walked back, but he was careless, and stepped on the air under his feet, which was very similar to the situation they had just fallen, and rolled towards them with a scream, but this time they were not very worried, Lin Qiudu was tied with an umbrella rope, at most he suffered some flesh and skin, even if he fell out of the path, his life would not be in danger.
As if expected, after screaming repeatedly, Lin Qiudu really fell out of the path, scaring several of them into a cold sweat, Lin Qiudu's experience was like a replay of what they had just encountered, fortunately they didn't fall off the path, otherwise they would have been shattered by now.
Several people secretly rejoiced that they had not died.
Lao Sun asked, "He won't fall to his death, will he?"
"Shut your crow's mouth, isn't he tied with a rope?"
The tension was anxious, and Lao Sun closed his mouth stupidly.
Several people watched Lin Qiudu fall downward, in just a few seconds, the screams resounded through the mountains, although there were countless bumps, but Lin Qiudu finally remained awake, and only after the light of the flashlight stabilized did Zhang Lien ask loudly: "How are you?"
Lu Yunfan and Lao Sun looked nervously at Lin Qiudu not far below them, holding their breath and quietly waiting for his answer. But after Lin Qiudu's screams stopped, he didn't make a sound again for a long time, which made Lu Yunfan anxious.
In any case, Lin Qiudu came to save them, although he didn't save them, but because of them, he put himself in danger, and with this alone, Lin Qiudu's status in his heart rose several levels.
Lu Yunfan ignored the pain in his back, and shouted again in a hoarse voice: "Lin Da, are you okay?" You are waiting there, we will come down to save you immediately." ”
Touching the rock wall behind him, although he didn't know what the road ahead was, he had already decided that he must save Lin Qiudu, even if he took his own life. Come and don't be rude, you come to save me, and I will never abandon you.
