Chapter 280: Rescue

Zhu Xishi turned back with a big handful of mountain rhododendrons, looked at Zhao Zhenyuan, who was sitting among the rocks and kept coughing, and asked uneasily.

"Does it matter? Let me do it anyway. ”

Putting down the mountain cuckoo in his arms, regardless of the tired Zhu Xishi, he hurriedly relieved his back smoothly. Zhao Zhenyuan lowered his head, raised his hand and waved weakly, signaling Zhu Xi that there was no need to worry; The sweet smell of blood in his throat was swallowed back by Zhao Zhenyuan, who was disguised.

No one is easy, but they all try their best to endure in front of each other.

Gently removing a gold thread from between the brocade robes, Zhao Zhenyuan carefully tied a few mountain rhododendrons together, put them aside after forming a bundle, and continued to repeat the previous movements.

Zhu Xishi was not idle, assisting Zhao Zhenyuan to repeat this monotonous and tedious thing, the fragrant fragrance of flowers floating in the air, and the bouquets around him had formed a blanket.

"Is that enough?"

He asked cautiously, as if he didn't dare to affect Zhao Zhenyuan's concentration.

"The more the better, we still have to rely on it to trust, naturally we can't break it."

Stabilizing his cough, Zhao Zhenyuan couldn't help but feel guilty when he looked at Zhu Xi, who was sweating profusely.

"You're tired. But before the rescue comes, we still have to be energetic and persever; Don't do it, rest and release the tied flowers. ”

"Got it, you don't have to worry about me."

An indifferent smile immediately dispelled the tiredness on his face, and there was a long way to go, Zhu Xi quickly put the well-tied mountain rhododendron into his arms, and immediately ran towards the hot spring pool.

Carefully walk through the hot spring waters. Three or four meters away from the turbulence, Zhu Xi stopped his steps and calculated the interval. Let go of the bouquet of mountain azaleas that you are holding in your arms.

When the first bouquet disappeared as far as his eye could see, Zhu Xishi hurriedly released the second bouquet, and so on until all the bouquets in his arms were empty.

Looking at the bouquet of mountain azaleas chasing the waves, Zhu Xishi's heart was also rising and falling in apprehension; Each bouquet of flowers is a prayer that will send the message to the person they want to inform

Valley of flowers, valley bottom.

At this time gathered at the bottom of the valley to search. Not only the nurses of Yunde Villa, but also the rescuers from King Rong's Mansion and the Gong Family also arrived and joined the search and rescue operation. More than 100 people launched a carpet search at the bottom of the "Valley of Flowers". Carefully looking for clues.

"Master of the family, there is no discovery in the waters of the five miles downstream, please instruct."

In early spring, the valley floor is extremely cold. The house slave who had just returned from the search had been in the water for too long. has frozen lips purple and white face. Although Gong Yihan was worried about the safety of Zhao Zhenyuan and Zhu Xishi at this time, he couldn't ignore the lives of his subordinates, so he hesitated for a moment and gave an order.

You can set off fireworks signals to notify the major branches, and quickly send reinforcements; In addition, I gave my order to let the brothers who were searching in the waters go ashore to adjust and repair, and wait for support. ”

"Yes!"

After making the order, Gong Yihan hurriedly rushed towards the water area searched by the people of the Rong Palace.

"How is Uncle Gong, is there any news?"

At this time, the courtyard of King Rong's Mansion was under the waterfall, and a strict search was launched. And Uncle Gong, the steward, stood anxiously by the waterhole and watched; The sound of the huge water was masked, and Uncle Gong did not notice Gong Yihan who was inquiring behind him.

"Uncle Gong."

He gently patted Uncle Gong on the shoulder. He always turned his head as if he had been frightened, and his face was full of panic; Knowing that it was abrupt, Gong Yihan respectfully apologized to him, and hurriedly approached his old ear and asked.

"Did you find anything, Uncle Gong?"

"Nope. Young Master Gong, how is the situation over there? ”

"Not found."

replied loudly, Gong Yihan, who shook his head, was full of disappointment, and couldn't help but wonder if his speculation was wrong? Could it be that Zhao Zhenyuan and Zhu Xishi did not fall off the cliff, but were captured by mistake, and such incomprehensible contradictions also stood in his heart.

When he was stunned, suddenly the nursing home searching in the pool waved his hand excitedly on the water, Gong Yihan and Uncle Gong's faces were shocked, and they stared intently at the nursing home that was approaching the shore step by step; It seems that he is dragging something in his hand, but he is too far away to see clearly.

And the shortened distance gradually unveiled the veil of mystery just now, and Gong Yihan saw clearly what was in the hands of the nurse who waded through the water.

A bunch of mountain rhododendrons.

"Young Master Gong, Gong Steward, the little one found this bunch of mountain rhododendrons under the waterfall, please take a look."

At this time, Uncle Gong, who was anxious, did not take a closer look at this bunch of mountain rhododendrons, and was worried about the safety of his prince, so he couldn't help but blame this nurse angrily.

"Bastard, the prince's life and death are uncertain now, and you still have the heart to linger in the landscape!"

was about to grab this bunch of mountain rhododendrons and throw them back into the pool, but Gong Yihan didn't want to stop them at this time.

"Uncle Gong and wait!"

snatched the bunch of mountain cuckoos and looked at it, and the golden thread tied to the tail handle suddenly raised Gong Yihan's eyebrows.

"Look at what's tied to this bouquet."

According to Gong Yihan's prompt, Uncle Gong looked at the bunch of mountain rhododendrons in his hand again, and the golden golden thread also made his eyes tremble.

"This is this"

At this time, he couldn't take into account Uncle Gong's feelings, and Gong Yihan, who thought for a while, quickly asked about the nurse.

"A bouquet of mountain rhododendrons tied with gold thread, is this the only one?"

"There are quite a few below the waterfall, but the water is too strong, and the small ones can only be picked up nearby."

And there are many more, and these words are undoubtedly exciting news! Raise your head and look at the Yinchuan that hangs upside down between the mountain walls, the water curtain that flows straight down is like a rising dragon and goes straight into the sea of clouds, and the dragon sees the head and does not see the tail, and does not know where the source of the water is hidden.

"Uncle Gong, these mountain cuckoos should be the third brother's distress signal."

Gong Yihan's words suddenly made Uncle Gong's face unconcealed surprise, and he couldn't stop nodding yes, while Gong Yihan looked down at the bouquet in his hand, and continued to say what he thought.

"The valley floor is inaccessible, and these mountain rhododendrons are neatly tied together with gold thread. It's not just a matter of spur of the moment. I think Zhenyuan and they should be trapped somewhere in this valley at this time, and with the help of the water flow, these bunches of mountain rhododendrons are used for help. ”

"Young Master Gong. In your opinion, where is the prince trapped now? ”

Pursing his thin pink lips, Gong Yihan looked at the majestic waterfall again and replied in a positive voice.

"The bouquets have accumulated under the waterfall, and according to this situation, the third brother should be trapped somewhere in the spout of this waterfall now."

Vitality has appeared, although Zhao Zhenyuan and Zhu Xi have not yet been seen, but at least it can be determined now. The two should be safe for the time being. It's just that the sky is getting dark, and the more time drags on, the more difficult it is to rescue, and every minute is full of unknown variables. They have to hurry.

"Uncle Gong, quickly order someone to prepare ropes, torches, and warm clothes, so that you can go down the cliff to save people."

"Okay, I'll order someone to prepare it immediately! An hour later. We meet at the top of Moyun Mountain. ”

The idea of saving people was finalized. The two sides quickly organized their own men and horses to start a rescue operation

As night fell, the trough at the spit of Moyun Mountain fell into darkness. At this time, Zhu Xishi anxiously stayed by Zhao Zhenyuan's side, and with the help of the vague moonlight between the zeniths, he cautiously looked around.

The mountain breeze mixed with water vapor blew, sending a chilling chill to the heart and lungs. The temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is very large, and although he is close to the geothermal hot springs, Zhu Xishi still feels that his body can't bear the cold.

"Zhao Zhenyuan."

In the quietness, fear inevitably breeds in his heart, and Zhu Xishi couldn't help but call Zhao Zhenyuan beside him. But after waiting for a long time, he didn't respond in the slightest.

"Zhao Zhenyuan?!"

Restlessly summoned again. Zhu Xishi hurriedly came closer; The hand that was groping blindly in the darkness inadvertently touched the icy face, and Zhu Xishi's heart suddenly rushed to his throat.

Why is his body so cold?!

Distracting thoughts spread along this fear, and Zhu Xi was able to take Zhao Zhenyuan, who was lying on the rock, into his arms, and his tone was full of irrepressible panic.

"Zhao Zhenyuan, wake up, wake up! Don't sleep!! ”

The meager body temperature in his arms didn't seem to be enough to warm Zhao Zhenyuan, who was unconscious, and the temperature around him was still dropping; If he didn't think of a way to deal with it, he wouldn't survive tonight! In a panic, Zhu Xishi suddenly caught a glimpse of the steaming hot spring pool water, and his heart suddenly made up his mind.

It took a lot of effort to move Zhao Zhenyuan to the edge of the shoal, quickly remove his clothes, and soak his cool body in the hot spring; Immediately afterwards, Zhu Xishi picked up the volcanic hot mud from the bottom of the water and kept rubbing it on him, trying to revitalize his blood.

But after a lot of effort, Zhao Zhenyuan, who was immersed in the hot spring, still showed no signs of improvement, and Zhu Xishi, who was rubbing his back hard to invigorate his blood, slowly fell into a panic.

"Zhao Zhenyuan, you big starling, wake up and talk to me, okay? Don't wake up, wake up."

"Don't be silent, I'm scared to stay here alone"

"You can't die, Zhao Zhenyuan"

Clutching his cheeks, Zhu Xishi seemed to be fiddling with a lifeless puppet, and the tears finally couldn't bear the huge pressure in his heart.

Life and death, what other things in the world can destroy people's hearts so much, it will implant a shadow in the heart for a lifetime.

Will hope fall from the sky? Eyes overflowing with tears looked helplessly at the pitch black, and suddenly a faint light slowly fell from the mountain wall like a meteor sinking into the galaxy. Zhu Xishi, who thought he had a dream, quickly rubbed his hazy eyes, and that little bit of light still danced in front of him.

Ghost fire?! Such a terrible thought quickly rushed out of his mind, and he held his breath and did not dare to make any sound, only the rumbling sound of water kept roaring in his ears.

"Anyone? Is there anybody?"

Just when his heart defense was on the verge of collapse, a distant inquiry suddenly came through the sound of water, which suddenly aroused a tremor in the depths of Zhu Xishi's soul.

"Who?"

"Who? Who is it?! ”

The despair in his heart was like a spring breeze, and hope continued to raise Zhu Xishi's rhetorical question like spring shoots breaking through the ground.

"I am the guardian of King Rong's Mansion. You're a little girl?! ”

Constantly asking rhetorical questions and finally getting a response from the other party, Zhu Xishi's drowning man suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw and cried out heartbreakingly.

"I am, I am! Hurry, save people!! Zhao Zhenyuan is dying."

Hope and despair poured into his heart at this time, and the sound of crying jumped between the mountains and ravines! (To be continued......)
