Chapter 0006: One Tree, One Rope, Two People
"Who wrote such a bloody plot? Author, come here, let's have a good chat. Du Xuan finally confirmed the predicament in front of him and shook his head helplessly.
In the canyon, at the moment when the white-clothed swordsman was about to pierce Yu'er's body, a swordsman suddenly appeared from the bottom of the carriage and saved himself and Yu'er's lives.
The horses were frightened, and galloped with the wagons, rolling up the loess. The official road sloped downward, and the carriage accelerated with the trend, faster and faster, rushing out of the canyon, and the castration did not decrease.
The official road at the end of the canyon is a big turn, and the cliffs on both sides are deep and unknowable, and the terrain is dangerous. The frightened horses did not stop, panicked, stepped on the air with their front hooves, and rushed off the cliff without stopping!
The sound of the carriage smashing against the cliff and disintegrating, the wailing of the horses, and the exclamation of Yu'er rang out almost at the same time. The cradle rebounded into the air and immediately fell rapidly.
The sudden overweight and weightlessness made Du Xuan's baby's body surge with blood, and Du Xuan, who had been sleeping for many days, also woke up and felt terrified.
The cradle continued to fall, and then it was stuck between the branches of a tree, like a poor bird's nest, hanging alone halfway up the mountainside.
There is no most coincidence, only more coincidence.
In the process of falling from the disintegrated carriage, the long reins of the horse broke free from the restraints, one end was impartially wrapped around the tree pole, and the other end swayed in the air, falling rapidly, magically wrapped around the waist of Yu'er, who was panicked and falling at the same rapid speed.
One tree, the only tree in the entire cliff.
Two men, one in the cradle between the branches, and one under the tree, wrapped in the reins of a horse, hanging in the air under the trunk.
When the moon rises, the four fields are ethereal, and a layer of mist rises under the cliff, and the chill of early autumn is even more severe.
"Yu'er, we have to live. After a long time, understanding the current situation, Du Xuan slowly spoke, "Trapped in this halfway up the mountain, we can only wait to die, either starve to death, or be killed by the people who are chasing." ”
"Childe, what should Yu'er do?" Yu'er had already calmed down from her extreme fright.
She had become accustomed to the unusually mature tone of the baby in the cradle. Madame Ji has a life-saving grace for her, and her mission is to protect the unfortunate son in front of her, just as she did in the valley, even if it takes her life.
"First you have to climb up the rope. ”
This is the first step to get out of trouble, and the only thing that can be relied on at present is the experience and insight that Du Xuan has lived in for more than 20 years in his previous life and Yu'er's twelve-year-old weak body.
Yu'er looked up at the tree pole less than two meters away from her, paused, gathered strength, gritted her teeth, used her hands and feet together, and crawled upwards with difficulty.
The two cooperated very well, Du Xuan gave the order, and Yu'er acted according to the plan. Although due to physical exhaustion, Yu'er fell short several times, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered, and finally climbed under the trunk when she was almost collapsed.
"Childe. Yu'er took off the cradle and held Du Xuan in her arms, tears sliding down her delicate cheeks.
"Thank you Yu'er. Du Xuan's heart was moved, and he stretched out his chubby little hand to wipe away Yu'er's tears, "We can live." ”
Next is the tool to prepare to get out.
According to the sound of the stones thrown by Yu'er from the cliff, Du Xuan roughly calculated the distance from the bottom of the cliff. The reins were divided into strands, which were joined one after the other. Yu'er's purple robe and the bedding that wrapped Du Xuan were all used, and they were torn into strips of cloth and attached to the lower end of the horse's reins. Du Xuan's boy urine was also not wasted, and was used to wet the cloth strips to increase the toughness of the rope.
Even so, the length of the rope was not enough. The bark on the branches is also used, kneaded into ropes, joined together, and hung down at the lower end of the long ropes.
After a while, another rope was made, one end was tied around Yu'er's waist, and the other end was tied with a slipknot and put on the long rope, so that even if Yu'er was physically exhausted halfway, she could still hang on the rope to accumulate energy in order to fight again.
The soft padding inside the futon was thickly attached to Yu'er's palm, wrapped around the bark of the tree, and made into a simple hand glove.
Everything was in place, Yu'er firmly fixed Du Xuan with the bark on his back, used both hands, and began to slowly slide downward.
The night is deep, the moon is in the sky, and the silver light is dotted.
With the cliff as the background, the petite jade is like a leaf, clinging to a long thin line and slowly squirming downward.
I don't know how long it took, but the faint sound of water could be heard from under the cliff, which meant that they were still far from the bottom of the valley.
Yu'er's condition was not good, the speed of the decline began to slow down, the simple gloves were almost useless, the delicate palms were bloodshot, and the arms were painful.
Du Xuan couldn't ask Yu'er to do more, so he stopped several times and let Yu'er hover on the rope to rest.
Fortunately, they still had time, and even if a killer pursued him to this remote place, even if he found the clue of the tree, it should be two or three days later.
At this time, they didn't know that the ambush in the canyon did not leave a single living hole, the four black-robed people died, the grandfather dressed as a coachman died, and Shangguan Feixue and the person who killed from the bottom of the carriage were also killed.
Heaven had mercy, and they finally slid to the end of the rope.
The sound of water at the bottom of the valley was loud, and a river rushed through it.
Yu'er's palms are blurred with flesh and blood, and her physical strength has reached the limit. But the two are not out of the trap yet, and they are still about five meters away from the water!
