Chapter 42: The Night of Horror
Qingjia stumbled and fell off the cliff and did not return all night, and her neighbor Aunt Zhang was the first to find it, so she quickly gathered the people in the village to go up the mountain to find it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Although the early winter season is not too cold, the wind blows very hard at night, which is really cold to the bone.
After Qingjia fell off the cliff, she felt a sharp pain all over her body and then lost consciousness as soon as it was dark in front of her, fortunately, she was not in a coma for a long time, and when she woke up again, there was no trace of light around her, the wind was blowing, she was cold and afraid, and when she moved slightly, there was a heart-piercing pain in her right leg, Qingjia screamed in pain and quickly covered her mouth for fear that the sound she made would attract some beasts.
She lay on the ground and gasped for a while, and gradually regained some strength and then sat up with difficulty, reached out and touched her right leg to know that she had broken the bone, and her hand was so painful, sticky, it was too dark around her to see anything clearly, she could only lower her head and lick it gently, and her mouth was full of rust in an instant, and it turned out that she was also injured on her hand, which should be a bruise or something, but it is estimated that it is also very serious, because at this moment the hand is almost numb, although I don't know if it is because of the cold or pain.
She had never had such an experience of being alone, she often came to this mountain, so she knew better than anyone that there was no one around, and now she was trapped here, and she was definitely unable to get out of the trap if she was injured and moved. Not to mention whether there will be wild beasts in this wilderness, if there is, then she must be invincible. Even if God favored and did not have those fatal beasts, it was difficult for her to survive the night with injuries on such a cold winter night.
Qingjia was a little desperate, pain, hunger, cold, and fear all came to her heart for a while, she was really scared, what should she do, could it be that God would kill her and let her die here tonight?
Not daring to think about it again, she covered her mouth with her other, less injured hand, silent pain. At this moment, she remembered Chen Wei's face, and her tears were even more uncontrollable and raging.
Third brother, I'm so scared.
I don't know how long I cried, it seemed that the only remaining physical strength was washed away by these tears, Qingjia was tired and lay on the ground again, there were uneven stones under her, it was not comfortable to lie on it at all, and the wound was also under a burst of pain, but she was already overwhelmed by the huge pain in her heart, so she was in no mood to care about anything else.
Probably a double blow of physiology and psychology, the tears were blown by the wind and were really cold and dry, and there was a faint tingling sensation on the face, she was lying on the ground and her body was gradually tired, and her consciousness was slowly drifting away, and she was about to fall into the darkness of consciousness again but suddenly heard someone calling her name in the distance.
Qingjia smiled bitterly, is this the return to the light before the lamp ran out, and he had already had auditory hallucinations.
Just as he was about to close his eyes again, he heard that the voice seemed to be getting closer and closer, more and more clear, one after another, Qingjia's heart beat like a drum, and he hurriedly cheered up, and listened carefully, and the call did not seem to come from the mouth of the same person.
It turned out that someone was really looking for her!
Like a drowning person who grabbed a life-saving piece of driftwood at the last moment of her sinking, she struggled to sit up despite the pain and replied loudly, "I'm hereβ"
Qingjia never knew that her voice could be so loud, as if her throat was about to be pierced by this sharp voice, and she reached out to wipe away more and more tears from her face as she responded.
Fortunately, the mountains are empty, and the voice can be transmitted far and clearly, and sure enough, the people on the other end heard a spiritual shock, and then Qingjia heard Aunt Zhang's voice: "Jiajia, is it you?" β
Qingjia cried: "Auntie, it's me-"
A messy footsteps got closer and closer, and finally, a little spark appeared on the edge of the cliff above Qingjia's head, Qingjia recognized it as a torch, and hurriedly said: "Be careful, it's a cliff, don't fall down, woo......"
The man shouted in surprise, it turned out to be the sister-in-law of the Zhang family, she hurriedly shouted behind her: "Mother, Uncle Zhang, Jiajia is here, she fell to the bottom of the cliffββ"
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly ran over, and in an instant there was a row of torches on the edge of the cliff, and the light illuminated the bottom of the cliff clearly, only to see Qingjia sitting at the bottom of the cliff covered in blood, his hair was scattered, and his face was staggered with tears, and his appearance was so pitiful, it really made people's hearts crush when they saw it.
"Jiajia, don't be afraid, we're going to save you!" Aunt Zhang's words fell and others also followed to comfort, someone found a rope and threw it down, but the place where the rope fell was several meters away from her position, and she was now injured on her legs and hands and couldn't reach it at all, so she lay on the ground and stretched out her hand again and again but fell short again and again, and everyone who watched was both heartache and pity, Uncle Hu's grandson Hu Chaoding jumped out and said: "Sister Jiajia, wait a minute, I'll come down to help you."
Hu Chaoding followed the rope, came down without much effort, dragged the rope to Qingjia's side, carefully picked her up, and then tied the rope around her waist, and the people above tied the other end of the rope to the big tree on the side, and then pulled up hard to bring Qingjia up.
Just when everything was ready, Qingjia suddenly remembered something, looked around, and finally found the cold grass scattered on the side, so he said to Hu Chaoding: "Chaoding, can you help me hand me the flowers behind your feet?" β
Hu Chaoding was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at it, picked them up and handed them to Qingjia, she carefully put them into her arms.
"Jiajia, are you alright?"
Qingjia nodded and then everyone worked together to pull her up, although this is a feasible way, but it is inevitable to bump and bump in the process of pulling, especially when it touches Qingjia's right leg, which is even more painful, and finally pulls the person up, Qingjia has a lot of abrasions on his body.
Everyone saw that she was already in great pain, so they quickly put her on their backs and took turns carrying her down the mountain and returning home.
Tossed until midnight, Qingjia finally returned home, Aunt Zhang was about to ask her son to ask for a doctor, but was stopped by Qingjia: "Auntie, I'm afraid I can't invite a doctor even if I go to the county seat at this time, it doesn't matter if I have skin injuries." Today is to blame for my willfulness, even everyone, it's late at night, everyone go back to rest. β
Qingjia's lips turned pale from pain, blood loss and cold, and now she was in pain without saying a word: "Thank you so much today, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'm ......"
Thinking of this, she was still a little afraid, everyone listened to her words and comforted a few words and then went back, leaving only Aunt Zhang to change her clothes, clean up the wound, apply some simple wound medicine, and then the two slept together.
Such a thrilling, dangerous night passed like this.
The next day, Qingjia had a high fever because of the wound and cold.
Critically ill.
***********
On the Yuncheng side, Chen Wei captured the enemy's general in a battle, and made great contributions and was promoted to captain of the light cavalry. This event was a great event, but he himself did not take it to heart, and after the war was over, it was estimated that there would be a charter for peace after the war report went up. In this way, he can also prepare to go home, and after being away for so long, he has already returned to his heart.
Li Da was very happy to hear the news of his promotion and proposed that everyone go to celebrate, anyway, there is nothing to do now, the training is very tight on weekdays, and the army is very strict, everyone has no chance to go around, so it is just taking this opportunity for everyone to get together and relax completely.
This group of people who survived the battlefield are more eager to enjoy life than anyone else.
Chen Wei didn't want to be high-profile, but seeing what Li Da said sincerely, he agreed after thinking about it.
A great victory made the whole army excited, and the above turned a blind eye to some of the indulgences of the people below. After all, after the end of the war, they still couldn't have a moment of rest, and the court couldn't take it lightly.
Li Lin, who had been transferred to the hussar battalion as the battalion commander that day, happily stopped him: "Chen Wei, there is your letter!" β
Li Lin strode over, took a thick stack of envelopes in his hand, rummaged through the letters signed by Chen Wei, took out and handed it to him, rubbed his hands, his face was happy, and said, "Hehe, I also have a letter from home," he shook a few pages of stationery, and said happily: "My wife has given birth, she is a big fat boy, and both mother and son are safe." β
Chen Wei had seen this man's ruthless and decisive killing when he killed the enemy on the battlefield, but when he saw that his face was full of face, he was a little proud and a little proud.
The surprise of becoming a father for the first time was revealed on his face, his eyebrows fluttered, and he was showing off to everyone, just writing the big words 'I have a queen' on the door of his head.
Also as a man, Chen Wei could certainly understand his mood and said, "Congratulations." β
Li Lin smirked, scratched his head, and said heroically: "Hehe, go, I'll invite you to drink!" β
Chen Wei shook his head and said, "Tonight, Li Da and they booked a seat at Tengyun Inn and said that they were drinking, and everyone got together, why don't you join together?" β
When Li Lin heard this, he high-fived and said, "Ha, that dare is good, just what I want!" β
Chen Wei smiled, opened the envelope in his hand, took out the letter paper, and looked down.
Li Lin was still immersed in great joy, and said to himself: "What do you say I should choose, the nickname is arbitrary, but the big name has to be thought about carefully, the boy wants an atmospheric ......" didn't notice Chen Wei's sudden change of color at all, and said: "Hey, buddy, Li Da said that you have read books, and your knowledge must be better than mine, you say ......"
Li Lin looked at Chen Wei, only to see the fluttering letter slipping from his fingers and then swaying to the ground, and there was already a trace of blood on his face.
"Chen Wei, buddy, what's wrong with you!?"
What Li Lin was saying, he didn't seem to hear it, and no matter how much Li Lin shouted, he couldn't shake his distraction.
Only this letter is like his heart at the moment, scattered all over the ground.
