Volume 2 Survival in the Forbidden Land Chapter 16 The road is slippery on a rainy day

The night was getting dark, and only a glimmer of white afterglow could be seen on the horizon. There is a rainy day, and tomorrow will be a rainy day. It's just that today's drizzle has quietly stopped at some point.

This is just the place where Ling Yue and the others found the mushroom collection during the day, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be other beasts, using pine resin to ignite a slightly moist piece of firewood, relying on the slight firelight, the group began to disembowel this beast.

The internal organs such as the heart, liver, and kidneys can be eaten directly without too much processing, and the rest of the internal organs are thrown out. The layer of Lin armor on the outside of the beast was too lazy to peel off at this time, which was time-consuming and laborious, and it was obviously not a problem that should be considered now. Cut a large handful of grass to clean up the blood stains, Ling Chen didn't want his storage ring to be polluted by blood. When everyone goes into battle together, the efficiency is naturally much faster. In a matter of moments, the beast was dismantled into eight pieces and placed in the storage ring by Ling Chen.

"Dusty looks so much like a butcher. Wang Qingyun said, "Do you remember the butcher at the end of the street? As he spoke, Wang Qingyun stared at the big eyes of the copper bell, looking not angry and arrogant.

"How many pounds of meat to cut?" deliberately lowered his voice, looking very vicious. Wang Qingyun's hand movements imitated cutting meat with a cutter, and he said as he learned.

Suddenly a group of people laughed, imitating it really similarly, and everyone had an impression. At this time, combined with Ling Chen's appearance, although there was no one similar, he laughed because of this contrast.

Ling Chen also laughed for a while, and he was indeed embarrassed, but he couldn't cry or laugh when he was said to be a fierce and vicious look. Wang Qingyun ridiculed him for being deep in the bone marrow, and Ling Chen was also quite helpless.

With hundreds of pounds of meat, Ling Chen did feel some pressure, and although the weight brought by the storage ring was reduced a lot, it was a little difficult to adapt for a while. Throw all the messy things in his storage ring to Wang Qingyun, and he is only responsible for loading meat. There was nowhere to bury the beast's entrails at this point, and the traces of the battle and the large area of blood here would take time to clean up carefully. Now how can I have the time and energy, clean up a little, and the group will go back. This place is more than half an hour away from the camp, and there is no fear of any wild beast coming to you.

The campfire was still burning, and a simple torch was made by tying the sawdust leaves with thin rattan sticks and putting some pine resin in it. Maybe even Ling Chen didn't think of it himself, but he just casually said that the pine resin under the pine tree can help combustion, but it can help them so much. After making several more torches, the group began to light the fire and slowly groped their way forward.

There is no starlight tonight, and the sound of insects and birds is sparse, but it always adds a little vitality. Today's harvest was extraordinarily rich, not only with so many mushrooms, but also with a wild beast. Hundreds of pounds of meat is enough to eat for a long time. I just opened the meat in the morning, but now I have a large piece of meat, how can people be unhappy?

"Everybody be careful. Wang Qingyun was exploring the way ahead, and he had already passed by the broken slope of this pine forest, where everyone had been reminded and cared for. This place is extremely dangerous, there is no bottom, so be careful when walking. The width that can only accommodate one person to pass, and the group is extremely careful and does not dare to make any mistakes.

Wang Qingyun has already taken the lead and is waiting for everyone on the other side. Ling Yue and Xu Ziqing are already in front and are about to pass here.

"Ahh With a scream, there was an accident in the end. Ning Yuanru exclaimed, his feet slipped, and the whole person fell down the broken slope in an instant. Ling Chen walked in the middle, able to take care of everyone's situation at any time, and he reached out and grabbed Ning Yuanru as soon as he could. If the ground could be wider, maybe both of them would be fine. Ling Chen lowered his center of gravity for a moment, but the ground was smooth and too narrow. As the whole person leaned forward, there was no point of focus under his feet, and at the same time, he lost his center of gravity, and fell down the broken slope with Ning Yuanru. At this time, Wang Qingyu reacted and threw away the white silk in the Qiankun bag, but unfortunately he was a step late.

"Damn!" Seeing the two disappear from in front of him, Wang Qingyun burst into a foul mouth, hurriedly lay on the ground, and shouted loudly towards the broken slope below: "Dust!

Ling Yue was also a little panicked, and also shouted downward: "Ling Chen!

There was no response, Xu Ziqing hurriedly called Wang Qingyu over, and then returned to the broken slope by himself, which was where Ling Chen and Ning Yuanru fell. He began to mark the area, then widened the road and cut down all the bushes in front of him. Seeing this, Wang Qingyun also stepped forward and helped with Xu Ziqing. Ling Yue and Wang Qingyu also wanted to come over, but Wang Qingyun immediately stopped them. The road is too narrow, and it is already the limit for the two of them to stand on it, and they have to come again, in case there is any accident again, no one can afford it.

In a moment, the two cleared out the bushes in front of them, and a large black hole appeared in front of them, bottomless. Ling Chen and the others fell from here, afraid that life and death were unknown. Wang Qingyun's heart sank, and his face was a little grim. Looking at the bottomless hole in front of him, he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything, and continued to widen the bush in all directions, so that more area was exposed. Xu Ziqing was already a little flustered at this time, standing aside completely out of proportion, and didn't know what he should do. Time froze a little, everyone didn't speak, and a layer of gloom shrouded their hearts.

Until a new message came from below: "We're fine!"

It was Ling Chen's voice, which was shouted almost with all his might, probably to let the people above hear it more clearly. Hearing this, everyone was excited, and their faces couldn't stop being happy. Xu Ziqing was also very happy, and continued to work hard to cut down all the shrubs in front of him.

"How are you guys!Are you injured!" Wang Qingyun shouted downward, it was best for Ling Chen and the others to be okay at this time, and then asked about their physical condition, if they fell from here, were they injured.

After a while, a voice came from below: "No! It's safe here!"

"You go back first, and then come back tomorrow to find a way to save us!" the group listened attentively, and in a short period of time, Ling Chen had already told them their plans for the future.

At this time, it was getting late, and it was completely impossible to rescue. So it's best to analyze it rationally and let them come back tomorrow. Since they didn't have to worry about their lives and didn't get hurt, it was naturally the best. Wang Qingyun also understood this, weighed it slightly, and took everyone back first.

"Pay attention to safety!" Wang Qingyun said, "We will come over early tomorrow morning!"

"Good!"

Along the way, the group began to collect stout rattans to use as ropes for tomorrow. Although the two people below are not worried about their lives, if they encounter any danger, no one can say clearly. So it's still a race against time, get everything ready, and start the rescue early tomorrow morning.

Under the broken slope, Ling Chen roughly predicted that there was a height of more than ten meters here, and it was impossible for two people to fall from such a high place unscathed. Ling Chen had been holding Ning Yuanru in his arms, so Ning Yuanru was unscathed. But Lingchen was more miserable, in the process of falling, his right hand should have hit the rock, and it seemed to have been fractured, and there were several wounds on his back that were also cut by thorns, and he was not clothed, in short, he looked very embarrassed.

Now the hot pain on his back seems to have been rubbed off a layer of skin, and the perception of his right hand is completely incomprehensible. Ling Chen shook his head with a wry smile, looked at the little girl with pear blossoms and rain in front of him, and couldn't help laughing again.

"I guess we'll have to spend the night here tonight. Ling Chen looked around, the terrain here was still open, but there were more thorns, and the weeds were quite lush, such a flat terrain was quite good for cultivating crops. The reason why Ling Chen and the others fell from such a high place and were not seriously injured was because of these lush plants that served as a buffer, and the hard work was high.

Ning Yuanru cried and said with a little choked up: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for burdening you..."

"Say what. If you fall from here, I'll have someone with me, and I'll be too late to be happy. Ling Chen said jokingly, which can be regarded as comforting Ning Yuanru.

The pain in his back was intense, and after such a moment, his arm seemed to start to swell, and Ling Chen didn't have much time to laugh and comfort Ning Yuanru. The most important thing is to find out the environment and settle down as soon as possible.

"Yuanru, you stay here first, don't go anywhere, wait for me to come back. Ling Chen said. Without waiting for Ning Yuanru to respond, he turned around and left.

Ning Yuanru's eyes were hazy with tears, the boy in front of him, just like when he first arrived in the forest, he settled himself and waited for him to come back. Ning Yuanru blew her nose, looked at Ling Chen's distant back, and nodded heavily.

The surroundings are lonely, and even the sound of insects and birds is particularly precious. The little girl huddled in a ball with her knees in her arms and hid herself in the bushes. Time passes little by little, and the days of waiting are particularly difficult. Although he was afraid in his heart, Ning Yuanru was still very sure that Ling Chen would come back in the next moment. In fact, even she didn't know why, originally in the class, Ning Yuanru didn't communicate much with Ling Chen and others, only with a hint of classmate friendship. Then she broke through the Qi Cultivation Realm, in fact, she didn't want to come, she just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life, but the quota in the academy was really lacking, so she had to go.

On that day, the weather was fine, and Ning Yuanru officially greeted Ling Chen for the first time and called 'Brother Chen'. In fact, in the back, Ning Yuanru had never called like this at all, and after thinking about it, she had never even called Ling Chen, she had never taken the initiative to talk to Ling Chen.

She didn't know much about Ling Chen, but she knew that he seemed to like a girl very much. That was before she came to this school, so she had never seen that lucky girl, only knew her name, Xiao Zisoul. Maybe it was the gossip that girls were born with, she began to slowly understand Ling Chen, starting with special training from everyone, knowing that Ling Chen had lofty ideals and wanted to go to Dongsheng Academy. "Maybe it's more about going to that girl. Ning Yuanru roughly guessed Ling Chen's thoughts.

Ning Yuanru is actually very smart, although she doesn't talk much, she won't communicate too much with people, but many things can't be hidden from her eyes. Later, for the first time, Ling Chen saved her, and as she did today, she curled up in the grass, quietly waiting for someone. Who is that person? Later, Ling Chen took great care of her every time, and never forgot anything about her. In fact, Ning Yuanru herself just wants to be a person with the lowest sense of existence and help everyone, just doing what she can. Disguising herself to the point of no presence is something she's been doing for so many years. But Ling Chen didn't seem to give her a chance, and every time she would ask herself, ask herself.

"It's so annoying, this person, he obviously has a plan, but he still wants to ask me. Ning Yuanru thought in her heart. But she doesn't hate this feeling, in fact, she knows that she likes it, but she doesn't want to admit it. Even if she disguises herself too much, sometimes, she hopes that she can be noticed.

So gradually, Ning Yuanru began to look at Ling Chen secretly and think about some problems from his point of view. She seemed to have seen Ling Chen through, knew what the reason for his decision was, knew his personality and temper, etc., but she didn't know what kind of status she had in his heart. But it didn't matter, Ning Yuanru used this to guess Ling Chen's thoughts, and found that it was right every time, she was as happy as a child as if she had found a treasure, treasured it, and enjoyed it tirelessly. Whenever Ling Chen said something righteous and Ling Ran, he couldn't help but say a few words: "What to pretend, don't you think so in your own heart." But she never said it, it was her secret, her own happiness. So she found out that this boy is actually very simple, and it is easy for people to understand.

Immersed in her own world, Ning Yuanru thought of these memories, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly happily.
