Chapter 26: The Price of Romance

"It's okay here. They were already standing halfway up the hill, and Ou Shangwen glanced back at the river: "Xiaoman, when you look back, it's all mudslides." ”

Su Xiaoman stopped, just to catch a breath, she looked back, and her face immediately changed. Because it was a little farther away, the mudslide was not visually very rapid, but it spread over everything, like a mysterious devil. The creek they walked across was completely gone, and the mudslides had knocked down a large area of grass and trees along the river, as if it were a mysterious force emanating from the ground.

Su Xiaoman felt that her heart was a little unbeating, she had never seen such a terrifying and shocking scene. Ou Shangwen shook her hand tightly: "Don't worry, we are in a high place, it should be okay for the time being, let's take a few more steps, let us get closer to safety." ”

Su Xiaoman calmed down and gasped a few times, as if this way the heart could move and breathe normally: "Could it be that the water is getting higher and higher, higher and higher, and will drown us too?" I don't want to sleep in such a dirty place for the rest of my life." She looked reluctant, as if she was about to sleep in a mudslide.

Ou Shangwen hugged Su Xiaoman tightly: "No, there is me." Right away. How many steps will you go up, or I'll carry you?" he gasped, but he was very calm.

Su Xiaoman shook his head.

The two people don't know whether it is sweat or rain on their faces, they are already wet, their shirts can't cover the rain at all, and the two people are soaking wet, because they are desperately trying to escape, they don't feel very obvious about the cold and wet, and they have only one belief: hurry up and race against the mudslide.

"I'm okay!" Although Su Xiaoman said this, she still took the initiative to hold Ou Shangwen's hand, and Ou Shangwen smiled encouragingly: "You are the bravest girl I have ever seen, come on!"

Su Xiaoman smiled hard, trying to keep up with Ou Shangwen's pace. But now the sky was darker, because the dark clouds completely covered the blue sky, and the road was super difficult to walk, with branches all over the place, and wild grasses were overgrown, and the grass was taller than a person. Su Xiaoman fell again, her palm had already fallen off a piece of skin, and the blood was quickly washed away by the rain, and she was slightly painful.

"Be careful! Watch your step. Ou Shangwen reminded, and at the same time held Su Xiaoman's hand in his hand, feeling distressed: "It's really broken! I'm sorry I didn't take care of you." He blew on her hand.

"It's okay, I can still go!Continue!" Su Xiaoman didn't want to be a burden to Ou Shangwen, so she endured the pain and comforted him. In fact, Su Xiaoman's feet also hurt, he really shouldn't have come to find any mandala flowers, this flower is really poisonous, and it has brought disaster!

Ou Shangwen didn't dare to be careless, and held Su Xiaoman's hand tightly: "It's okay to go slowly, our current height is relatively safe." He looked around and into the distance, as if assessing distance and safety. The two men began to move on again. If the road is easier, trot a little, and if the road is difficult, walk slowly, Su Xiaoman was afraid that Ou Shangwen would be affected, and he was afraid of bringing trouble and danger to him, so he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Running to a half-way hillside, it was a place with a cliff, and the two of them stood still, looking back at the river below, and in the distance they could see the mudslide in the river still surging. Su Xiaoman let out a long sigh of relief: "Are we out of danger?"

"Well, almost. Auchanwen replied in the affirmative.

"Oh my God. Su Xiaoman was so tired that she felt that she couldn't stand still. After four miles of escape, I couldn't help but hug and celebrate.

"I felt like I was really close to death just now, and I felt this way for the first time. ”

Ou Shangwen still hugged Su Xiaoman tightly: "What about me?" He repeated this sentence again, as if having this sentence could bless Su Xiaoman's safety. "I'm not going to let you have anything to do. He was absolutely sure.

Su Xiaoman's eyes were still moist, Su Xiaoman suddenly felt the importance of this person, and the two of them actually experienced a life and death together. "If we live in this place for the rest of our lives, it's quite quiet. If that's the destination. Zhu Xiaoman said self-deprecatingly, and couldn't help hugging Ou Shangwen tightly, if he was sleeping here, it would be okay if he was accompanied by this man.

Ou Shangwen slowly let go of Su Xiaoman, looked at her with doting eyes, and then put his hand on Su Xiaoman's lips: "Don't say such things." It will be decades before this can be said. ”

Su Xiaoman smiled bitterly, and thought to herself, I don't know where I am in a few decades, and you still don't know where it is.

"Believe me, this is not our destination, it is just our station, a small station. Ou Shangwen gently wiped the rain on Su Xiaoman's face: "Come with me, you will find shelter soon, believe me?"

Su Xiaoman nodded heavily, she had no choice now, this man was her only backer and hope.

Ou Shangwen took Su Xiaoman's hand and strode forward. Su Xiaoman followed him, feeling warm and touched, and now, he was her world, holding his hand as if he had held the hand of God. Perhaps because Ou Shangwen had returned from abroad, Su Xiaoman naturally associated him with God.

Sure enough, after walking for a short time, I found a stone crack under the cliff, and two people squatted in it to rest, neither of them could straighten their waists, and the height was about one and a half meters. But squatting in it and sitting in it can still shelter from the rain. There's no rain coming in yet, so it's pretty dry.

Ou Shangwen found a clean stone for Su Xiaoman to sit down: "Xiaoman, you sit down and rest first, it seems that someone has stayed here, do you see? This stone doesn't look like it fell from here, it should have been deliberately moved over." ”

Su Xiaoman observed: "I don't know much about this. It's not too big? Probably? It's a natural shelter, are we going to stay here tonight?"

Ou Shangwen bent down and walked out, looked at the sky, there was still moderate rain, and there was a vast area in the distance, the key was the river, it was already like a big river, and it was still rushing. He didn't know which mountain had landslided, causing a mudslide, and he didn't know how heavy the water and rain were upstream. If he returns the same way, he can still find it back, but unfortunately he is separated by the "Yellow River water", and he does not dare to wade into danger.

Su Xiaoman saw Ou Shangwen standing outside observing something, and suddenly wanted to walk away, Su Xiaoman exclaimed: "Why are you going?"

"I'll look for some branches, which haven't been soaked in the rain yet, and maybe make a fire. Ou Shangwen saw some dry branches next to him, although it was already raining, he knew that the rain was very short, and it was not so wet that even the inside of the wood was wet, so he could put it away for later use. He himself could endure it all night, but he didn't want Su Xiaoman to suffer with him.

Su Xiaoman twisted Ou Shangwen's shirt a few times, trying to wring out the moisture as much as possible, hoping that it would dry as soon as possible so that the man could wear it. The current Ou Shangwen is shirtless, and he doesn't wear a vest inside, so it's so unfortunate today?

After a while, Ou Shangwen came back with a few large branches and piled them up at the door.

"Not wet?" Su Xiaoman pulled a branch, pulled off a branch vigorously, and observed the inside: "It's okay, it's dry inside, and it's a little wet." ”

"Haven't you always wanted to learn how to drill wood for fire? ”

Su Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and she was a little surprised: "Really, you can see it today? But didn't you say it's very difficult?" She remembered that Ou Shangwen said that it was very difficult to make fire.

"We'll have to give it a try. Auchanwen threw a piece of thick firewood: "It's not easy to find this. I'll have to go out and get some dry moss, or I'll not be able to start a fire. ”

"Can you find it along the rock wall? I'll go too. ”

"Don't, you stay here, I'm not going far, it's nearby. Ou Shangwen saw Su Xiaoman supporting his shirt with two arms, so he pulled over a branch: "You put it on it, it's too tired." ”

"I'm fine, you go, go and come back quickly. ”

Ou Shangwen hurriedly walked out again, Su Xiaoman didn't want to stay idle like this, she also wanted to go out to see if there was anything to eat. Ou Shangwen was only looking for firewood, and he probably saw something to eat, but he didn't notice it.

Which wild vegetables can be eaten raw in summer, Su Xiaoman didn't know, but she knew that some could be eaten, although she couldn't name them, she still found a little. Unfortunately, because of the rain, some soil has been splashed on the leaves, and some of the leaves have been washed by the rain and some dust has been removed. Su Xiaoman took the wild vegetables under the crack in the stone and put them on the branches brought by Ou Shangwen, the place where she put them was just exposed, the rain could drip down, and the wild vegetables could be regarded as a cleaning.

When Su Xiaoman went out, she didn't see Ou Shangwen's figure, and she was a little worried in her heart, this guy, didn't you say that she wouldn't go far? She picked up Ou Shangwen's shirt and shook it a few times, hoping to dry it quickly. But the air seemed to be more humid, and the rain had no intention of stopping.

Su Xiaoman sat there, feeling lonely ahead of her time. When Ou Shangwen was by her side, she was often a little impatient and wary of him, but now that he was not in front of her, she felt very empty and looked forward to his appearance. Su Xiaoman squatted by the crack in the stone, looking out where the raindrops could not reach.

After a while, Ou Shangwen's tall figure finally appeared, and Su Xiaoman rushed out to greet him: "Hey, why did you come back?"

"Is it late? Hurry back, don't get wet. ”

Su Xiaoman didn't stop, she had gone out just now, and it had already rained again. Auchanwen also quickened his pace,
