The forest we had passed through had been going down by the horizon.

Therefore, the height of this rocky slope is not much different from the foothold we have reached at the beginning of the rough stone road.

When you think about it, it's a strange terrain.

Most people would probably find it hard to understand when they look at my description.

Is it natural to do this, or is there a human factor in it?!

It's hard to say anything else, but the trap in the forest, which can't be caused by natural forces.

I'm sure of that.

As I looked at the terrain around me, I suddenly remembered the extent of the earthquake in the Northland.

In an instant, a thought crossed my mind, wondering if the terrain here had anything to do with the earthquake?

If the section of the road that is still far from the north has been changed, I don't know how many landslides and diversions will be there along the way.

I sighed, stared at the stone wall in front of me, and thought for a long time without saying a word.

The boy waited there, but did not speak, and fell silent again.

I frowned and thought about it, but for a moment there was no answer, so I shifted my focus to my companions.

The tsundere boy didn't climb up fast, he almost landed one by one, and he deliberately waited when he paused.

His style is steady.

Seeing that this guy has a lot of experience in the field, including his movements, he knows that he has experienced it before.

The tsundere teenager will slow down. On the one hand, it is for the sake of caution so as not to step on the wrong place.

If he falls, it will be his weight. It's not just him, it's even me!

There are also pros and cons to extra insurance, not to mention, everyone understands it.

On the other hand, I think he took into account my limited physical strength, so he is waiting for me to climb slowly!

Wait until I can have a cushion between climbs.

This way of climbing can sustain physical strength for a longer period of time than if you were to keep climbing all the time.

I'm a lot slower than him, so he's taking care of me. I wasn't far from him.

In addition, it is very quiet here, there is no sound except the wind, and even the breathing of the other party can be heard when climbing.

"Xiaoling." The tsundere boy stopped again, this time his eyes turned to me, and finally spoke, "You must practice well." Look at your movements! “

I tried to ease my tense expression. But he still couldn't help but gritted his teeth and responded: "What's wrong with the action?" ”

"It's so stupid to look at!" He was straightforward.

I took a breath, didn't look at him, heard his disdainful tone, and said to myself, I don't want to, you know, I'm already very tired.

There are individual differences, plus there are differences between men and women, where is it easy to catch up with his progress!

The young man paused, and continued: "Xiaoling." When we come back from the fishing village, we will be on the way to the Northland. You can learn kung fu from me. ”

His mind was spinning quickly, and he felt that I was missing something and quickly made up for it.

Hearing his words, I glanced up, looked down and decided to confess to him.

I said with a little embarrassment: "Young Master, in fact, I have learned. “

"I haven't studied for a long time, and I don't practice much."

"I've learned to look like this, I don't bother to talk about you," the tsundere boy changed his tone and said mockingly, "Is there a problem with the master who taught you?" ”

I looked at him blankly and didn't answer.

"Usually bad teachers will mislead people's children."

"Shut up!" In an instant, I straightened my back and raised my head to the direction where the tsundere boy was, "The teachers are good, they are the best teachers, but I am not angry!" “

I was very upset, and added: "Young Master, don't say that next time, I definitely don't want to hear it a second time anyway." ”

"Such a fierce reaction," the boy muttered under his breath.

"Don't be slow, hurry," he said, raising his voice a little, "I'm talking about that before!" “

"Don't blame you for not reminding you, it would be terrible if it rained halfway up the mountain," the young man looked around and stopped on the slope of the stone slope and looked down at me, "Xiao Ling, look at where we are on the stone slope now." “

"You can't go up or down, the distance between the two sides is about the same."

He's right, it's an awkward position, and what's even more awkward is the inability to change it for a while.

"If it rains heavily halfway through, there's nowhere to shelter from the rain."

I raised my head to meet his gaze and glared at him fiercely.

This man was really annoying, and then I lowered my head and muttered to myself, "Crow's mouth!" “

"Where is there such bad luck, don't say that about yourself."

After a short break, continue to climb.

I don't know if the person above was born with the attribute of a crow's beak, but before I saw it at the top of the slope, the unlucky raindrops really fell.

At first, of course, it was sparse raindrops, which fell on the rocky slope one by one, and also on the body.

"Young Master, it's all your fault, it's okay to say it's raining," I said depressedly, "It's good this time, you said it!" ”

I'm really afraid of what's coming!

I looked up anxiously, unable to reach the top of the slope for the time being, as he had warned me before.

But now we're much higher than the trap-ridden fog forest we've walked before.

Although it is easier to go down, it is definitely not possible to go back to the current situation, so we have to continue to go up.

The fog in the mountains does not disperse, and it rains again, and I am also drunk!

Not far overhead, I heard a low laugh, and the guy didn't look anxious at all.

"Xiaoling, the rain in this mountain is just going to fall, and I didn't invite it," he paused, and asked with a little smile in his tone, "What are you complaining about?" ”

I sneered and fell silent. I made a lot of effort to speed up.

Before, I was afraid that the whole process would take a long time, but after all, some of my physical strength was retained, and my movements were deliberately slow. Now it's time to let go.

Because I don't have time to delay!

Soon, the tsundere boy couldn't laugh anymore.

Seeing that the raindrops have a tendency to increase, it means that it is likely that we will not go down to the location on the rocky slope, and then we will be drenched in soup.

I wiped my sweat a bit, and I was sweating in the winter.

Looking up, I shook my head depressedly.

In my memory, walking alone in the mountains has never been so decrepit, it must be because of the tsundere boy above.

"Xiaoling. If you can't go down like this, you won't be able to reach the top of the slope for the time being, and you can't be on the halfway road. “

The boy turned his head and looked around thoughtfully. He continued: "If it rains heavily, I am afraid that the soil on the mountain will loosen. “

He frowned and muttered, "I'm worried about the time."

Before the tsundere boy finished speaking, I immediately shouted, "Stop." You stop. Please, don't say any more! ”

"Young Master, didn't you notice? As soon as you said it, it came true. ”

I'm not superstitious, but when he says it's raining, I think it's better to shut him up for the time being.

"What do you say now?"

"Xiaoling, why don't you wait."

The tsundere boy moved a few times on the stone wall, and then said to me, "Xiaoling, where you are now." Is there a place where I can fix it? ”

"What do you mean?" I didn't understand what he meant, and looked up in confusion.

The boy is still the same as before. Looking down at me, he said, "I mean, I'm going to look on the stone wall to see if there is a place to hide from the rain."

He paused and continued, "But you're too slow, I'm not with you."

Before he finished speaking, I immediately understood, and hurriedly looked to the side.

At the moment, the position where I am staying is a protruding rock, and it looks quite stable.

Since he wanted to check it out, I was definitely going to do something risky.

I hesitated for a few seconds, trying not to look at the landscape below.

If you look at it, you will naturally feel that the position you are in is too high, and you will think about what will happen if you fall, and if you think too much, there must be a shadow in your heart!

Turning a blind eye is the best way to overcome the fear of being in an awkward position in front of you.

Cautiously, with one hand, I tried to untie the rope that was tied around my waist.

I sweated just by making this action!

Where is it right now, it's too adventurous, and it's a bit exciting.

However, I soon discovered the problem.

Recall that at first, the tsundere boy showed me how to tie the rope before climbing the hill.

At that time, when I wanted to "tie up" myself, the technology was not up to par, and he couldn't see it and helped by himself.

Now the conditions are even worse!

I can only use one hand to untie the rope on the stone wall, or the knot made by the tsundere boy himself, which is too difficult to think about!

However, I was easily unwilling to give up, so I tried patiently, and then reluctantly raised my head to him and said, "I understand what you mean, I understand it." “

"The problem is that I want to untie the rope now, but I can't do it now."

"You wait there, don't move."

The boy whispered to me, and when he had finished speaking, he began to descend, drawing closer to me.

"By the way, don't I have to untie the rope? Anyway, if you don't solve it yourself, it's fine. ”

I had an idea, and immediately said to him, was it a stupid method just now, why didn't he understand it himself?

"The rope must be with me, in case you want to fall, I can still use it to save you, what use can you hold it."

The tsundere boy explained my confusion for a second, and said in a low tone.

When he approached me, he was skillful in his movements, and in three or two strokes he untied the rope, which he knotted himself, and he knew it with ease.

He looked at me for a few seconds, frowned, and then said in a gentle tone: "Xiaoling, you are here for the time being, don't move, wait for me to go up and have a look." ”

Once the shackles between the two people were untied, the speed of the tsundere boy was suddenly much faster than just now.

I looked up and saw him nimbly heading east.

I looked at the bushes growing on the stone wall over there, and maybe the boy had already thought about it and planned to go there to investigate.

I thought to myself that this rock wall was probably caused by soil erosion after heavy rains in the mountains.

Wait for the tsundere boy to climb to the other side to take a look, maybe there is a cave or something like a shelter from the rain that he said.

For now, it seems, there is hope.

I waited where I was, seeing that the rain was getting heavier, and I began to feel a little apprehensive.

What he said just now makes me feel a shadow in my heart!

Looking at the strange terrain here, maybe there will be a problem when it rains heavily!

"Xiaoling!" Suddenly, I heard the tsundere boy calling me, I was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and quickly answered.

"Xiaoling, can you try to come east?"

"Where's the location?" I asked, "Master, make it clear." ”

It took a lot of effort to see the look of the tsundere boy not far away looking at me, and I became angry.

He was comfortable at this moment, and he was sitting on the other side of the cave, his legs still dangling a few times.

A trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he said to me: "Xiaoling, the cave here is very small and can't accommodate two people, but you can wait, I'll clean it up." ”

Suddenly, the familiar feeling came again, I was in a trance for a moment, and then asked, "What you said about cleaning, should it be?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the sound of falling rocks in my ears.

The tsundere boy did as he said and began to clean up the cave where he was.

I almost want to curse! This guy is really!

It's still a bit of a distance from me, but it's a terrible feeling to look at the rubble that keeps rolling down on one side and the dirt in the cave.

"Hey! Then why do you want me to come over, I can wait until you're done cleaning up, and then come over! ”

He shook his head and said disapprecitately: "You are wrong, of course there is a reason to call you over." ”

The tsundere boy poked his head out of the cave and looked at me, and said in a light tone: "If it rains heavily, it will be even more difficult for you to move here!" "As soon as the stone wall slips, how do you seize the leverage?"

"Nonsense, you just want to see how embarrassed I am."

I still feel awkward in my heart!

"Well, it's pretty too!"

The tsundere boy suddenly stopped what he was doing, poked his head out, looked at me and frowned, "No, it's not safe for you to stay now, change places." ”

As soon as he stopped, the sound of falling stones stopped.

I couldn't help but ask, "What bad idea are you playing again?" “

I paused, and said helplessly: "Young Master, how long will it take for you to clear the space that can accommodate two people?" ”

I obviously felt that the rain was getting heavier, and I could clearly feel it on the stone wall.

In other words, will his method work?

The boy did not reply, he patted the dust off his hands, and followed the descending route, and soon reached my side.

Even on the steep stone wall, his movements are light and skillful, and there is even a bit of pleasing meaning to look at! (To be continued.) )
