Chapter Thirty-Nine: And Hang the Southeast Branch
As soon as the tsundere boy came to me, he patted me on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
Anyway, when he did this, I didn't have time to avoid it.
Because of the special location, there is no place for me to avoid at this time.
Even when I clinged to the stone wall, I still felt a sense of fear - I felt that I was in danger of falling if I was not careful!
What a terrible feeling!
The boy was right next to me, and he reattached the rope to me.
He looped the rope several times and then tied the knot, and I looked down at his movements.
As long as he does it, the complicated process looks very easy, which is completely different from when I did it myself.
I have to admit that this is what I admire the most, because this is the gap between me and him!
I watched carefully, staring at his hand for a moment, and while memorizing his movements in my mind, I secretly sighed.
Even so, I guess it will be enough for me to do it myself.
Let's look for an opportunity, maybe I won't have the opportunity to learn from the tsundere boy when I'm free.
Of course, the first thing to do is to get out of the current predicament!
After tying the knot, the tsundere boy pointed to the small tree that grew on the stone wall not far from the cave.
The tree looked lonely on the cliff, braving the wind and rain.
He pointed it out to me and said, "Xiaoling, wait a minute, you go over there." “
Seeing my hesitant expression, the tsundere boy immediately explained to me, "Even if it rains, at least there is a cover." can also have a foothold to borrow strength, Xiaoling. ”
Is there any mistake? Is that where the tree is?!
I looked at him in confusion, and naturally hesitated. I will definitely hesitate to change to someone else.
"Where can that tree hold off the rain," I stared at for a moment, then turned my head and pursed my lips and whispered to the tsundere boy, "Young Master, I can't see it." ”
I don't think it's safe, and it doesn't look like the tree has a strong foundation!
What did he mean by keeping out the rain? In my opinion, it is even more impossible. The tree is not big!
If it rains heavily in the mountains and the wind is blowing, what kind of rain can such a small tree hold? ! and shall not fall on me in the same way.
If it's raining heavily. It only takes a short moment to get soaked!
"Xiaoling, you stay for a while, I'll be here as soon as possible."
After a moment of silence, the tsundere boy comforted me again: "Give it a try." Don't be afraid. ”
He spoke in a very calm tone. Generally speaking, it has a soothing power at such times.
The problem is that I've just experienced danger, and my heart is still hanging.
His attitude didn't do much for me for the time being, but it added a bit of a burden to me.
I still feel depressed when I think about it, as if this inexplicable rain was found by him.
Even if I know that rain in the mountains is a common thing!
can't resist this lord's crow's mouth, as soon as he says it, it will come true!
Of course, delaying is also not an option.
Because the rain in the mountains is likely to fall heavily, at least for now.
He and I both had the experience of walking in the mountains, and I learned about the changeable weather in the mountains last time.
Even if we came out of Nanhua Town yesterday, didn't we see rain in the mountains today?
It rained almost overnight last night!
The weather is never subject to human will.
If you stay where you are for a long time. The outlook is not optimistic!
After I could see the location of the tree that the tsundere boy was talking about, I lowered my head and silently calculated the distance in my mind.
The plan he said was clearly thought of. For now, it is also feasible.
Of course, there is also a downside, that is, I still have to take a lot of risks to move!
Just practice before the crossing, there was indeed training in rock climbing at that time, the difference is that it was in the stadium at that time, and it was definitely not in such a dangerous place in front of you.
I retracted my thoughts for a second, and the boy was still looking at me.
I paused, took a deep breath, and began to move cautiously across the stone wall.
Once I want to make such a move, it means that I have to be highly focused and have enough confidence in myself.
If you don't have enough self-confidence, you don't have to try!
Because it is certain to fail, sometimes it is very important to support people's spiritual strength.
On the steep rock wall, every stop must be confirmed.
In a word, now I want to move on the stone wall, which is almost like a juggling person walking on the tip of a knife!
I first held my breath and tried to adjust my emotions, and said to myself in my heart that I must not mess up by myself for a while, remember!
That is the only way to hope for success.
When I found a protruding rock as a foothold, I tried to step on it with one foot, but I couldn't use 10% of my strength, and most of the force was still pressed on the foot that didn't move.
Even if I took a step, my heart was hanging for a moment, and I didn't let go until I made sure that I didn't let go before I carefully moved my whole body.
Each step seemed as long as a century, as if time had stood still.
My forehead was sweating in such a tense situation, and I could hear my own breathing clearly.
Silenced, it seemed that everything else around me had been neglected, and I was the only one in heaven and earth!
After moving a few steps like this, I was about to step on the next rock, and suddenly something happened.
All of a sudden, I felt like the soles of my feet were empty!
A mountain rock rolled down in an instant!!
"Xiaoling!" There was a shout overhead
It's scary!
I leaned against the stone wall and gasped, and my whole body was terrified.
"How are you, are you alright?" Voices came from above.
I quickly took another deep breath and felt my heart pounding so fast!
The tsundere boy was on top, still clutching the other end of the rope in his hand. I shook a few times outside the stone wall before I managed to get hold of the other place.
After calming down, I felt relieved, and I felt a kind of happiness for the rest of my life.
I'm calm. immediately said angrily to the tsundere boy: "Young Master, it's all your bad idea!" ”
I'm so depressed that I want to stomp my feet!
I almost died because of his plan, but unfortunately I was on the stone wall at this time, and I didn't dare to move too much, so I had to step on the stone under my feet with one foot.
"I almost killed you!"
"Xiaoling, how can you blame me," the tsundere boy's eyes narrowed slightly. Then he said innocently to me, "Xiaoling, if I hadn't grabbed the rope just now." If you have enough strength to support you, you might actually fall. “
Does he still have credit?!
I shook my head, not quite out of my nervous state.
"You should thank me for holding on to the rope!"
He repeated, then paused.
The tsundere boy stuck his head out a little and looked at me from above. Remind me: "Xiaoling." Ye didn't say that wrong before, right? “
"Ye said a long time ago, your skills just can't work."
He looked at me with disdain and said, "Xiaoling, look at you, it's only been a few steps, and you almost fell down!" ”
Hey, this guy, what if you pick a few nice words to say?
Just get out of danger and hit me, don't bring this!
I gritted my teeth. Xindao, this guy's EQ is too low!
The rain intensified, and I stood still. But worries are also growing.
At this moment, I really didn't dare to move, I clung to a certain place on the stone wall, looked at the tsundere boy above and said, "When are you going to clean up?" “
I almost stepped on the air just now, and I was a little scared.
"Why are you moving so slowly?"
If he says me, I have to pay homage too!
"Nonsense, Ye is not a mouse, mice are good at burrowing," the tsundere boy poked his head out of the cave on the stone wall, looked at me with a little mockery, and said, "Xiaoling, if it were you, you would be slower than me!" “
"Xiaoling, what is your expression?" He asked me.
"I can't hold on to my expression!"
I wiped the drops of water from my forehead in frustration, and I couldn't tell if it was my sweat or the rain that had fallen!
"Really, I can't hold on anymore," I asked for help, "Young Master, you must know that there is no place to stay here, it is like hanging on a stone wall." “
"What the hell do you think I'm going to do? Why don't you think of another way! ”
The rain hit my body, and I couldn't help but tremble, I gritted my teeth and said weakly.
"It's not impossible."
The young man poked his head out of it again and said, "Xiaoling, it depends on whether you are happy or not, and you can still free your hands, and I will help you fix your position." ”
"Hurry up, if it rains heavily, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to catch the stone and fall."
Think about the picture, I'm drunk too!
The young man paused, and suddenly said with a smile in his tone: "You ask so strongly, I'll follow your wishes." ”
"Hurry up, find a place where you can fix it, and help me."
I said in a hurry.
"Okay, wait."
He said yes so happily that I don't know why I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart
In less than ten minutes, I blackened my face, gritted my teeth and looked at the tsundere boy and said, "What do you mean?" ”
I'm in a more awkward position right now than before!
I don't even want to describe this scene!
The tsundere boy told me earlier that he would help me find a fixed, safer position, and this sentence is correct!
In my opinion, as long as I don't keep venturing to climb over there, I think it's okay.
As a result, I watched him come out of the cave and move swiftly to the southeast of the cave, where the little tree he had told me about.
However, this time he didn't ask me to climb over myself, but directly untied the rope from his own body.
He found a fixing point in the gap in the stone wall, and then pierced it into the gap with the long dagger he carried with him.
The tsundere boy fastened the rope to the trunk of the small tree, and added the point where the long dagger was fixed as a safe side.
Now I look like I'm hanging from a tree!
Yes, that's right, hung from a tree!
It hurts to pull my waist!
"Bastard!" I finally couldn't help but curse.
"Didn't you ask for it? Xiaoling, it's good to hang here, don't worry, you will definitely not be able to fall. ”
"It's safe!"
The tsundere boy smiled and returned to the cave and continued to dig and clean up the earth.
"Xiaoling, you can turn around and look at the scenery, although the fog is a little bigger, there is also a different kind of beauty!"
"Xiaoling, I realized it this time, my kung fu is not as good as people, how painful it is, and when I come back from the fishing village, I have to practice with my master every day."
"Xiaoling"
Your sister, who's going to gag him!
No matter how hard the boy tried to clean the cave, I could only continue to be "hanged" from that small tree in frustration.
He kept telling me that it was safe, but I was not less worried.
Just with the long dagger fixed in the crack in the stone wall, and the tree above my head, I really don't think it's as safe as he says.
Not only that, but the rain in the mountains gradually became heavier, mixed with the mountain wind blowing at me, and my waist was strangled uncomfortably, not to mention, it was still very cold to stay in that position.
The mountain wind blew and raindrops, and the robe I wore was clinging to my body, but in a moment, I couldn't help but sneeze twice.
"Xiaoling, it's okay!"
I let out a long breath when I heard the words above my head.
The boy came out of the cave and walked to the little tree, and he looked down at me, and I thought the guy was still smiling.
"The scenery is very good!"
After he finished speaking, he quickly untied the rope, and took off the long dagger that was fixed in the gap in the stone wall.
This time, he landed some distance, protected me with one hand, and quickly reached the location of the cave
As soon as my hand touched the ground in the cave on the rock wall, it was as if my whole body had been stripped of strength.
I sat on the floor and rested for a while before I was in the mood to look at the small place in front of me.
It's rare that there is a place on the stone wall that can accommodate people, and the rain in the mountains is gradually falling heavily.
My clothes were wet from the raindrops, but the place was too small for a fire, so I had to wait until I was on my way to find a time to dry my clothes.
Or if you're lucky, you can take shelter from the rain and set off again, and if you can reach the fishing village before dark, you may be able to have a hot meal and a place to stay.
When I think about it, I feel a lot better.
The tsundere boy is still very close to me.
This cave could have accommodated about one person, and if it weren't for him cleaning and digging, I guess I wouldn't have had a chance to hide in.
I have mixed feelings, on the one hand, I have to thank him, as a very actionable partner, it is helpful to be around me.
Just by looking at the way he wraps the rope around it, I know that there is a lot to learn from him!
On the other hand, this man has a number of flaws, the most annoying of which is that I found out that he was fond of pranks.
I don't have any hope of relieving the previous scene in a short time! (To be continued.) )
