The two of them pressed against the stone wall, moving forward step by step, and the gravel under their feet rolled down from time to time, and the splash was swallowed up by the river that slapped the shore in a moment. The mountain wind was whistling in their ears, and the two of them were covered with cold sweat, their wet clothes were close to their bodies, and the cold was to the bones. I don't know how long the road has been moving, the path under their feet has gradually widened, and Zhang Xingjiu has finally returned to his place with his heart in his heart.

Unexpectedly, this ease was only instantaneous. Like Zhang Xing, the stone saw that the path under his feet widened, and he relaxed for a while, and actually stepped on a loose stone and slipped under his feet. His leg injury was not completely healed in the first place, where could he still be stable? Then he screamed, and his body was crooked, and he fell down.

Zhang Xing grabbed the air, and the grass mat on her back fell down. She hurriedly leaned against the mountain wall to stabilize her swaying body, and her body was covered in cold sweat, and she was even short of breath. Standing firm, the probe looked, the straw mat was floating in mid-air, after falling into the water, a wave hit, and suddenly disappeared in the white waves of the rolling river. After a while, it floated up again, drifting into the distance with the current.

But where are the stones?

She couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart for a while, her body couldn't help but tremble, these days of companionship, no matter how difficult the situation, the smile on the stone face was the strongest support in her heart. She didn't believe that the stone that could bite a wolf to death and glow forever could be so missing.

She couldn't help but tremble, and said to herself, "No...... No......" and got carried away and shouted down, "Stone! stone!"

"I, I'm here ......," a familiar voice replied.

Zhang Xing turned his head to look, and there was a hand on a protruding mountain wall next to him, the green tendons on his hand were exposed, his nails were white, and the head of the stone was flickering and swaying under the protruding mountain stone.

Zhang Xing hurriedly wiped a handful of tears and shouted, "Stone, you hold on, I'll pull you up." She took off her burden and counted all the things inside, but there were only some things in it, such as food and pans, clothes, etc., what could be the use of these now?

She hesitated, her eyes fell on the mass of clothing, and she grabbed it, and quickly twisted it into a long strip, several of which were connected, and tied a dead knot, one end wrapped around her waist, and the other end flung underneath. Then he threw himself on the ground, with a stone on his shoulder and chest, pulled the rope with one hand, and shouted, "Stone, you have grasped it, I will pull you up." ”

The stone was cut at the rock wall, and his five fingers were bleeding, his face was pale, and his forehead was full of cold sweat. After wrapping the rope around one of his wrists, he let go of Shi Bi's hand and shifted his weight over.

Zhang Xing felt that her waist tightened suddenly, as if she wanted to be strangled, and the whole person was dragged to the side, but fortunately, her shoulders and chest were against the stone to stabilize the slide, otherwise, at this moment, she also fell.

The weight of the stone exceeded her imagination, and she couldn't pull it with both hands, so she flipped over, pulled the rope on her back, and leaned forward as hard as she could, before pulling the stone up a little.

But the clothes they brought had been worn for a long time, and even if they had twisted long strips, they were not strong enough. The rope had been pulled on the cliff for a while, and then there was a snort and a tearing sound. Zhang Xing heard the sound, hurriedly turned his head, quickly pounced on the broken rope, grabbed the broken rope, and after being dragged a little, his shoulders and chest were once again pressed against the ground and the protruding stone, and finally stabilized the slippery momentum.

But the severed head of the hand couldn't be grasped at all, and Zhang Xing saw that the rope in his hand was getting shorter and shorter, and his heart sank a little bit.

"Apricots. The stone that had fallen on the twisted rope suddenly shouted.

Zhang Xing looked down. The stone's eyes were as calm as she had never seen before. She shook her head in a hurry, gritted her teeth and tried to move her entire chest to the protruding stone, but as soon as she moved, she noticed a sharp pain in her shoulder and chest, and her whole person rushed forward a lot.

"Xing'er, if you move again, you're going to fall. Then the stone cried out, "Listen to me." ”

Zhang Xing shook her head, burst into tears, and said, "Don't." ”

The stone looked at her and said, "Xing'er, look at my hand, my hand is injured, and I can't move my leg, you can't pull it up." I, I can't go home with you, you are alone, you have to live well, you must go home. After speaking, without waiting for Zhang Xing to respond, he loosened the twisted rope.

"Stone, stone!" Zhang Xing shouted as she looked at the stone that fell like a fallen leaf.

The body of the stone fell into the water with a pop, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Xing hurriedly stood up, stumbled down the mountain road, and when she reached a place where the terrain was a little slower, she climbed and rolled down, and when she reached the river, she picked up a stick, and fished while walking, but she fished all the surroundings, and she didn't catch the slightest corner of the stone.

The river rolled eastward, and the waves crashed on the shore, and from time to time there was a loud noise. Zhang Xing was stunned for a while, but she continued to look forward, until it was completely dark, and she still found nothing.

She curled up in the night on a large rock on the river beach, and the next morning she returned to the mountain path, only to find that all the baggage, food, and other things she had left behind were gone.

The mountains are vast and silent, and the rivers are surging. She sat on the ground for a while, then stood up, and continued to walk numbly with a stick, and went forward along the river, still walking and looking for it. When he was hungry, he ran into the mountains to find some wild fruits to eat, and when he was thirsty, he took water from the river to drink. She had seen several waves of men in gray riding horses in circles in the mountains. But she was very careful not to let any of them see her.

Three days later, the river beach was cut off by a towering mountain, and she climbed up.

It was getting colder and colder, and many of the animals in the mountains were hiding, but now she could not only find the nest of rabbits and pheasants accurately, but also run faster than them. Take a stick to make a harpoon, as long as she fancies the fish, few can escape.

The first time she ate raw meat, she threw up, and the second time, she ate half a fish.

There were not only rabbits, pheasants, wolves, wild boars, but also bears, blind bears, deer, and other large animals, and she had met many of them, and except for one twisted leg, the rest escaped unharmed.

She made a straw mat out of dry grass, and a basket out of branches, which was used to cushion sleeping on the ground, and in which she contained some wild fruits, fish and meat that could not be eaten, and so on. She also found that fish wrapped in a leaf could be stored for two or three days.

She made a pair of shoes out of a few rabbit furs, because her shoes were long gone. The shoes made of rabbit fur are waterproof and warm, and there is no sound at all when walking up the mountain road. It was much better than her broken shoes, and she threw them into the river.

After crossing the hill that cut off the riverbank, she never saw the man in gray on a horse again.

She had seen many boats on the river, but they were all in the middle of the river, and she cried out several times, but none of them came to her, so when she saw them again, she stopped shouting, and gradually became nothing of the boats that were going to be on the river.

When the first snow of winter fell, she saw the smoke of the house.
