Chapter 499: The Ravine
After another day of walking on the snow, we are getting closer and closer to the Meili Snow Mountain, this is the fourth day of searching, and the road has become particularly difficult to walk due to the avalanche yesterday.
Zhang Biwei and I were almost walking in the snow, the snow was almost up to the waist of the two of us, and the difficulty of walking was much greater than on the first day.
"Li Ran, what do I think, there seems to be a single-plank bridge in front?" Zhang Biwei craned her neck and looked into the distance, "It seems that there really is a single-plank bridge, look at it!"
"Really?" I looked into the distance, turning on my visual ability, only to see that in the distance, almost at the foot of the Meili Snow Mountain, there was a naturally formed fractured valley, the distance of the break was about twenty meters or so, I am afraid that it would be difficult for me to jump over, connecting the two sides of the valley, not so much a single-plank bridge, but two ropes, I could only see a few planks.
"There are no single-plank bridges, just two ropes. ”
"That'...... How do you get there?"
"Climb over, of course, or how else can you get over?"
"Huh?" Zhang Biwei was a little surprised, "Climb over?" but I can climb a ladder, not a rope!"
"When the time comes, you can just hold me, anyway, let go, you will definitely fall!"
We walked for another half a day, and finally arrived at the location of the broken valley, which looked particularly spectacular from the side, and there was ice under the broken valley, and there were many animal carcasses in the ice, which were all well preserved because of the cold, and I don't know how many years they have been frozen here.
At the bottom, there is a huge ravine that can be several kilometers long, and the walls around the ravine are also covered with ice.
"Oh my God, this is the legendary Ice Valley. Zhang Biwei hid behind me and secretly poked her head down and said.
"Are you afraid of heights?" I knew that Zhang Biwei was afraid of heights as soon as I saw Zhang Biwei's appearance.
"Who...... Who said that!" Zhang Biwei is still strong.
"Ahh When she realized that I was lying to her, she immediately kicked me in anger.
"Alright, alright, we'll have to get over!" I glanced at the two ropes, which were only six planks, and each one was so old that it could probably break if it was touched.
"Do you really want to use these two jump ropes to climb over?" Zhang Biwei was a little stunned when she saw this "abyss".
"Now it seems that this is the only way!" I put my backpack on my chest, and then squatted in front of Zhang Biwei, Zhang Biwei hugged my neck with both hands, and her legs also clamped my waist: "Li Ran, you must climb over well, I don't want to come back to life in an avalanche and die on these two ropes!"
I took this opportunity to peel off the oil twice more and touched Zhang Biwei's legs: "Don't worry, just for these two legs, I can't let you fall!"
Zhang Biwei immediately showed an angry expression, and then bit me the neck.
There are four ropes on the bridge, two of which are above and two below, and since most of the planks are gone, you can only step on the rope below, and then hold on to the rope above, and move towards the opposite side little by little.
Zhang Biwei's legs clamped me tightly, her eyes were tightly closed, and her body was trembling. I moved about five meters forward, and there were still more than twenty meters left, which looked very long, and I felt that the rope could come loose at any moment.
Li Ran ...... How far is it......" Zhang Biwei didn't dare to open her eyes, so she could only ask me with her eyes closed.
"Don't be afraid, it's not far away, it's coming soon. "Little by little, I moved towards the opposite side, but I'm not particularly sure about it now, because it's so far away and there's no foothold in between, and even if I wanted to jump over, there was no place to jump.
When I moved to the middle, I could see the whole gully more completely, it was really spectacular, every place was formed by ice, every place was transparent, and the bottom of the gully was about 70 meters away from where we are now.
Just as I took another step forward, the rope under my feet suddenly broke, and my whole body was suspended in an instant, Zhang Biwei also felt this, and immediately began to shout: "Li Ran! What's wrong! Li Ran!"
"It's okay, it's okay, the rope under my feet is broken!" I grabbed the rope on it with both hands, and then used my arms to move towards the opposite side little by little, and the speed was significantly slower than just now.
Zhang Biwei opened her eyes in a very small slit, and after taking a look at the situation, she was immediately frightened and closed tightly: "Li Ran...... What's going on?"
"It's fine, it's just that the rope suddenly broke, and it's not far from the other side. ”
"Will the rope on it also be broken suddenly?" As soon as Zhang Biwei's voice fell, I suddenly felt that the whole person fell directly, and the rope on it was broken at once.
I jumped at the last moment towards a plank in the middle of the bridge, but as soon as my foot landed on it, the plank cracked, and before I could jump, I had already fallen.
"Biwei, let go!"
Zhang Biwei followed my wishes, closed her eyes tightly in mid-air, let go of me, and I also hugged Zhang Biwei tightly in mid-air, so that her whole body was on my chest, I hit the ice wall of the ravine with my back, and then slid down the ice wall all the way to the bottom of the valley.
But God didn't seem to want me to reach the bottom of the valley safely, there were a lot of raised ice cubes on the ice wall, I put my back on the ice wall to the bottom of the valley, and put Zhang Biwei on my chest.
I hit the bulging ice directly, the speed was very fast, and the force was so great that I only felt like my entire spine was going to break, and although I gritted my teeth, blood still came out between my teeth.
But it didn't stop, the two of us were still gliding down the ice wall, and before long another bump of ice appeared, and I tried to change the direction of our slide, but I just moved, and the speed of the slide was already causing me to actually hit the ice again.
The ice cube was directly smashed by me, I still didn't hold back this time, and spit out a mouthful of blood directly, and it was getting closer and closer to the bottom of the valley, although the light at the bottom of the valley was very dark, but I still saw the bottom of the valley, there was a particularly large ice pick, aimed at the ice wall where we were, if it really went down, then it was possible that both of us were pierced by the ice pick!
