Chapter 61: A Desperate Shot
"Guys, hurry up, or the rain will start and I'm afraid I'll have to fall again." An uncle from Qiupo County snorted, and the men immediately agreed in a sullen voice, and the speed of the team's movement also accelerated.
Lin Xiangwan raised his head, the sky was now like an upside-down pot bottom, black and pressing, with occasional lightning flashing, like a pair of invisible hands in the dark, tearing the sky apart, leaving a miserable white scar between the clouds.
The raindrops, though not very large, are as dense as a cow's hair. The soil under her feet was soaked by the rain again, and even the non-slip shoes with oxford soles couldn't stand firmly on it, Lin Xiangwan had just walked out of a hot sweat, and now she was doused with cold water, which completely made her understand what it means to be Ice and Fire Nine Heavens, all the pores were screaming pain, and her body seemed to explode.
The hands of the people in the mountains are very strong, they hold a hoe all the year round, and their hands are covered with a thick layer of calluses, and they also used all their strength when they grabbed Lin Xiangwan's wrist, so that Lin Xiangwan's wrist hurt, so that she gritted her teeth so that she didn't cry out in pain.
Lin Xiangwan can endure it does not mean that everyone can endure it, a girl in front of her is estimated to be usually held in the palm of her hand by her family, and she has never suffered like this, and she was caught screaming and screaming, which was very noisy.
The man who took her over the mountain probably hadn't seen such a noise, and when the girl quarreled, he panicked, and his feet were also chaotic, and his body staggered and fell into the slope, it didn't matter if he fell, the row of men who were connected to him were going to fall. The body of the person who grabbed Lin Xiangwan leaned outward, and Lin Xiangwan was pulled by him and stepped on the air all of a sudden.
The sharp pain from her ankle made her break out in a layer of cold sweat, Lin Xiangwan knew that her ankle must have been twisted, but she just didn't know how heavy it was, and now this situation did not allow her to stop and check, it would be good to be able to stand, Lin Xiangwan used her hands to look for all the bumps on the rock wall that could be grasped, but she finally found that all these efforts were in vain.
The team that was tied together was crumbling, everyone was desperately looking for the center of gravity, Shen Shijun was at the back of the team, and he could see from a distance that Lin Xiangwan's state was a little wrong, but he was too far away from her, and he could only be in a hurry and unable to act.
Lin Xiangwan's situation is getting more and more critical, seeing her body gradually leaning out of the cliff, but no one can take care of her, if she can't hold on and fall, then the whole team will also fall into the deep valley!
Just as he was about to make a move, suddenly a black figure quickly swept over the cliff at an almost 90-degree right angle, and then firmly grabbed Lin Xiangwan's waist.
"Don't be afraid, Ah Wan, I caught you, don't be afraid. ”
Although he said that Lin Xiangwan should not be afraid, Chu Di's face was even worse than her. He held her tightly in his arms, as if he were going to rub her into his body, for fear that if he let go, she would fall off the cliff.
Between life and death, personal grievances become less important. Lin Xiangwan didn't refuse his embrace, she buried her head in Chu Di's neck socket, breathing rapidly, and her body trembled so much that she could barely control herself.
Chu Di hugged Lin Xiangwan with one hand, and carried her to safety all the time, and he didn't let go, he let her sit on his lap and take off her shoes.
"It's okay, it's just a sprain, it didn't hurt the bones, and it's fine after two days of rest. Shen Shijun, who came up from behind, gave Lin Xiangwan a quick check, and Lin Xiangwan leaned into Chu Di's arms and showed him an ugly smile, "I'm not so fragile, senior brother, don't worry too much." I'm sorry to trouble my brother,"
For some reason, such a scene made Shen Shijun really feel embarrassed, the woman he likes snuggled in the arms of other men, as long as it is a man, but anyone who is a little bloody, I am afraid he will not like such a scene. The more polite Lin Xiangwan was to him, the more estranged he felt from her.
Shen Shijun rolled up the corners of Lin Xiangwan's pants, took out a can of spray from his backpack, sprayed a layer of potion evenly on Lin Xiangwan's injury, and said to her, "After spraying the medicine, it is estimated that it will take effect after a while, and it shouldn't hurt so much, but your feet can't be stressed for the time being, and you will have to trouble Mr. Chu below." ”
Chu Di didn't speak, first took off his coat, and then quickly carried Lin Xiangwan behind him, and then put his coat on her.
The man's coat is the top professional mountaineering suit, which is waterproof, breathable and warm, Lin Xiangwan was covered by it, and there was a warm feeling, which made her unable to refuse.
The warmth from Chu Di warmed her chest, and his clothes protected her back at the same time, and she fell asleep in the warmth.
"Don't fall asleep, otherwise you will get sick easily, talk to me, and sleep as you like when you get to the station. Chu Di's deep voice came from the front, and Lin Xiangwan's gaze went around his shoulder and saw his shoes.
Due to the rain, the mud on the ground has melted away, and when you step on it, you will sink into it, Chu Di's shoes have become a mess, but his steps are still extremely firm, even if he carries her behind him, it has not affected his speed in the slightest.
"Why are you here?" It wasn't until now that Lin Xiangwan realized how big her nerves were, the Hummer just now was obviously his mount, why did she forget about it after only a few years.
Was it because she deliberately didn't want to remember the past, or was it because the past was too hideous for her to look back?
"The company that supports Qiupo Pharmaceutical this time is a newly acquired company by Chu's, so I will come over first to understand the environment. ”
Swindler.
If there is an employee of the Chu family at the scene, his lies will be directly exposed, such a drudgery of going to the mountains and going to the countryside, where is the need for a big man of his identity to come forward?
He only came because he couldn't let her go.
Ever since she had been separated from him that day, he had been forcing himself not to think about her. But her figure filled every place he stared at, and he found that he could not bear to break up with her, without her, time became long and tasteless, and life was left with a never-ending cycle without any surprises or novelties.
As long as he thought that she proposed to break up with him, breaking up meant that he could no longer have her in the future, and he felt like a knife.
This will not work.
He made a judgment at the first time, and then listened to his own heart and followed her to Qiupo.
If Lin Xiangwan was not in distress, he could have been hiding in the depths of the dense forest and watching her, as long as he saw him, it would make him feel at ease, and feel that the floating soul could find a landing site.
"They don't need cardiovascular drugs, they need multivitamin tablets. Lin Xiangwan muttered softly. The rugged mountain road, leaning on the man's back, and the feeling of being bumpy made her think of the few times Ye Zhen had carried her behind her back when she was a child.
His back is much wider than Ye Zhen's, leaning on it, there is a reassuring feeling.
Chu Di didn't speak, silently carried Lin Xiangwan and walked forward, Lin Xiangwan knew that she shouldn't sleep, but she was tired and tired, her eyelids fell involuntarily, her consciousness was drowsy, she persisted for less than a quarter of an hour, and fell into the dark sweet country.
In a daze, someone patted her cheek, Lin Xiangwan buried her head in her arm, and said with a whining, "Dad, don't make noise with me...... Let me sleep a little longer...... Just five minutes of sleep......"
Chu Di felt distressed and ridiculous when he saw her playing tricks, and took out a thin blanket from his backpack and wrapped Lin Xiangwan a few more times before he retreated from the tent.
When Lin Xiangwan woke up, it was already past five o'clock, and she was sitting in the tent in a daze, her head heavy, and she couldn't figure out why she was here for a while.
The wet clothes on her body had been changed, and even her hair had been thoughtfully dried, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the transparent fabric at the top of the tent, shining warmly on her.
There was the aroma of food in the air, Lin Xiangwan's empty stomach was seduced by it, she closed her eyes and inhaled greedily, and suddenly heard the sound of the tent being opened.
Chu Di entered the tent with a small pot in his hand, but he didn't expect Lin Xiangwan to wake up, the two looked at each other, and no one said anything. After a while, Lin Xiangwan straightened up, raised his chin, and pointed at his hand, "What's it?"
"Oh, I've cooked some porridge for you. Drink it while it's hot. ”
When the pot was placed in front of Lin Xiangwan, the porridge inside was still boiling hot, Lin Xiangwan took a deep breath and made sure that it was this taste that had just hooked his index finger.
"The treatment of rich people is good, and there are people who cook porridge to drink. Lin Xiangwan muttered unceremoniously, and Chu Di stuffed the spoon into her hand, "Everyone eats the same." And when he had said that, he went out again.
Huh? How is that possible? Doesn't it mean that Qiupo County is a well-known poverty-stricken county in the whole country? Why is there not only all kinds of rice but also nuts and grains in this porridge? Is it possible that Qiupo County is a special product? Would it be poor if there is such a specialty?
As my mind went awry, the tent rattled again.
Shen Shijun stood at the entrance of the tent with a pot in his hand, unable to advance or retreat.
Looking at the hot instant noodles in his hand, and then at the fragrant eight-treasure porridge in front of Lin Xiangwan, Shen Shijun smiled bitterly, "Since someone has brought you food, then I will go out first, and I will show you the wound on my leg later." ”
"Senior brother, wait a minute......" Lin Xiangwan opened his mouth and called Shen Shijun, but Shen Shijun had already strode away.
There was still a unique aroma of instant noodles in the tent, and Lin Xiangwan's mind couldn't turn for a while, didn't he say that everyone ate the same? Why did Shen Shijun bring instant noodles? And Chu Di took porridge? Sure enough, that guy asked him to open a small stove for him again, right? and lied to her that everyone ate the same......
Thinking in her heart, Lin Xiangwan opened the curtain, but when she saw everything in front of her, her heart couldn't help but sink downward.
