The screams of cold snow echoed thrillingly in the empty valley.

Chu Tianshu turned to one side in a hurry, stretched out his right hand without hesitation, and hugged Leng Xue, and the whole person was instantly hung upside down on the tree by this impact. The weight of the two people all relied on Chu Tianshu's two legs to clamp the branch tightly, and the injured right thigh once again came with a heart-rending pain.

The frightened Leng Xue instinctively reacted the quickest, and she also grabbed the thin branches in front of her, but it was completely impossible for these thin branches to bear her weight, Chu Tianshu could only endure the pain in her thigh, and hugged Leng Xue's waist with her right hand.

The security guard at the top of the cliff fired another shot, and this shot screamed down with the screams of the cold snow, and the bullet grazed the cold snow's right arm.

"Chu Tianshu, you let go of me." Leng Xue, who was tired and hungry, shouted weakly, she had eaten a boxed lunch at noon yesterday, experienced several hours of thrilling escape, and endured several hours of torment on the cliff wall, she was exhausted and almost collapsed.

"Nope! I'm not going to give up. Chu Tianshu, who was hanging upside down, replied tenaciously.

After being injured, Leng Xue was no longer able to grasp the branches, and her body slipped little by little in the crook of Chu Tianshu's arm, she could obviously feel Chu Tianshu's arm trembling, and her physical strength was about to run out.

The security guard at the top of the cliff was still shooting, and the bullets flew past the bodies of the two men.

If it goes on like this, both of them are likely to be hit by stray bullets, in which case, neither of them will survive.

"Please, let me go." Cold Snow was in agony, shouting in a faint voice.

Chu Tianshu encouraged: "Leng Xue, hold on, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must make the most effort." ”

This is Chu Tianshu, a man with strong willpower!

Chu Tianshu hugged Leng Xue with his right hand, alternated the force with his left hand and legs, gritted his teeth and moved from one branch to the next little by little.

Move, rest, Chu Tianshu constantly encouraged Leng Xue, and he was also cheering himself up.

Blood was dripping down his thighs, a few drops onto Leng Xue's face.

An hour passed, and the two of them hung down a distance of about two or three meters, and finally avoided the range of shotgun fire.

The further down you go, the thicker the branches become.

Leng Xue could finally touch a twig the thickness of two thumbs, and she hugged it tightly.

Chu Tianshu let out a long sigh of relief, let go of his numb arm, his eyes went dark, and his whole body fell like a bird that had been shot.

Leng Xue couldn't react, reached out and grabbed a handful, grabbing the backpack strap on Chu Tianshu's back, but she really didn't have any more strength to hold Chu Tianshu, but was pulled by the impact, and the branch she had just hugged snapped and broke.

The two of them fell one after the other, and fell down at the same time......

It was already dark.

The woods at the bottom of the valley were bustling with activity, and the birds that had been awakened from their sleep chirped happily, and their voices were crisp and mellow, continuous, as if they were warmly welcoming two uninvited guests from the horizon.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue fell from a tree more than ten meters high and landed on the thick dead leaves.

Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, a large number of dead leaves that have just declined this year have been deposited at the valley floor, nearly one meter thick, like a soft sponge mattress, spread around the big trees.

Even so, Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue, who were exhausted and overly weak, both fell into a coma after they fell.

I don't know how long it took for Chu Tianshu to wake up first, he slowly opened his eyes, looked up at the sky groggily for more than ten seconds, and felt like he had slept for several days.

As soon as he turned his head and saw the cold snow not far away, he suddenly remembered the experience in the dark night, he struggled to sit up, climbed to the side of the cold snow, tried it with his hand under her nose, and reached out and touched her left breast.

Leng Xue's face was haggard, her breathing was slightly weak, but her heartbeat was relatively strong.

Chu Tianshu took out a bottle of mineral water from his mountaineering backpack and held it in his mouth to warm it for a while before leaning over and feeding Leng Xue a few mouthfuls mouth-to-mouth.

Leng Xue closed her eyes, her body moved, and a few dead leaves touched the wound on her right arm, and she let out a painful moan.

The rain-soaked leaves are too damp for the cold snow to lie here for long.

Chu Tianshu tried to pick her up, but the pile of leaves was too thick, and he couldn't exert his strength under his feet at all, and as long as he used force, his injured right leg would hurt badly.

Helpless, Chu Tianshu could only climb while dragging the cold snow outside the pile of leaves.

It took a lot of effort, and finally dragged it to a place with fewer leaves, Chu Tianshu really had no strength, he let go of her, and gasped for breath.

Lying in the pile of wet leaves until dawn, both of them were soaking wet with their clothes.

Chu Tianshu looked around, the valley bottom was filled with dense fog, the humidity was steaming, and he could only see a few big trees around him, in addition, it was all bare rocks, and there were a bunch of debris scattered not far away, which could vaguely be seen to be the wreckage of an electric car, and the fragments of a laptop.

Chu Tianshu couldn't help but be a little afraid, if he and Leng Xue fell down just now, not in the pile of leaves under the big tree, but on this rock, he would definitely have been crushed.

Chu Tianshu stood up strongly, took a few steps forward on tiptoe, and looked up, the surrounding cliffs were steep, covered with moss, and from the bottom, it looked like people had fallen into a well, and only a small piece of light at the mouth of the well could be seen.

The sky was still overcast, and it seemed like it was going to rain again.

No, you have to find a dry place to shelter from the rain and make a fire, otherwise, your whole body will be wet with rain, the wound will deteriorate, and then it will be blown by the mountain wind, and no matter how strong your body is, you will not be able to stand it.

Further on, the eyes are full of bare cliffs.

Chu Tianshu turned around and saw a waterhole, which was full of muddy muddy water, it was estimated that it was washed down from the top of the mountain by heavy rain, and he walked along the waterhole for more than ten meters, and he faintly saw that there was a recess in front of the right, and the surrounding rocks seemed to be less moss.

Chu Tianshu couldn't help but be surprised, he took out the telescope and took a look: Great, it's a cave.

The cave is the highest part of the canyon separated by a waterhole, and the entrance to the cave is not full of bare cliffs, but is covered with thorns and weeds, and the slope is relatively gentle, and if it is summer, the entrance of the cave should still enjoy an hour of sunshine.

Chu Tianshu returned to the bottom of the big tree, rearranged his backpack, carried it on his chest in turn, and then squatted down and grabbed Leng Xue's uninjured left arm, and laboriously lifted her on his back, walking towards the direction of the cave.

Walking to the waterhole, Chu Tianshu threw a stone and tried the depth, it didn't feel too deep, so he wanted to wade over, but as soon as he took a step and retracted his leg, the wound on his right thigh was still oozing blood, and if it was soaked in muddy water, it was likely to rot and become inflamed.

Chu Tian relieved the cold snow on his back, looked around again, and found that he wanted to get close to the cave, but he couldn't get around this pool. He gritted his teeth, but bravely stepped into the water.

The water is bitingly cold.

Fortunately, there was not much silt underneath, most of them were hard rocks, Chu Tianshu took a few steps forward boldly, the water slowly became deeper and deeper, the deepest part just passed the thigh, the wound was stirred by the cold water, but he didn't feel pain.

Chu Tianshu walked hard, passed through the pool, climbed a small slope, and finally came to the entrance of the cave. He did not rush in, took the dagger out of his backpack, stooped down and picked up a few fist-sized stones, threw them through the hole, and then flashed aside, staring warily at the mouth of the cave in case a wild beast or a poisonous snake came out.

After waiting for a while, there was no movement.

Chu Tianshu walked into the cave little by little with the cold snow on his back.

In line with what was expected, although there was a smell of dampness in the cave, the ground was relatively dry, and there were some leaves that had been blown in earlier, which were not wet by the rain, and clicked when stepped on.

Chu Tianshu found a slightly flat place in the cave, carefully put the cold snow on the ground, untied the backpack on her body, took out the sleeping bag and laid it, and originally wanted to transfer the cold snow to the sleeping bag, but seeing that her clothes were soaked, she still muttered, planning to talk about the fire.

Chu Tianshu went to the outside of the cave and chopped some branches with a dagger, gathered the dead leaves in the cave together, turned the first aid kit out, found the box of wax-sealed matches, poured a little alcohol on a ball of cotton wool, used his body to block the wind that might blow in from the entrance of the cave, struck a match and lit the cotton dipped in alcohol, leading a pile of dead leaves.

Chu Tianshu roasted the freshly cut branches on the fire, and after the water vapor evaporated, the branches also burned, the fire became even stronger, and the cave gradually warmed up.

Outside, the sky was getting gloomy.

Chu Tianshu didn't dare to be careless, put aside the dead leaves that might have been collected in the cave, and went out to pick up a lot of thick branches, piled them next to the fire and let them dry, and cut down a few small trees with branches, built a shelf at the entrance of the cave, took off the wet clothes on his body, and baked them on the shelf, blocking the wind by the way.

After doing all this, Chu Tianshu washed his hands in the pool, entered the cave, thought about it, and took out the infrared induction alarm and set it up in a little deeper part of the cave.

Chu Tianshu took out a set of short-sleeved sportswear from his mountaineering backpack, which was stuffed into it during his orienteering training during the summer vacation of his freshman year, and then the club was disbanded, and the mountaineering bag basically never came in handy again, so this set of sportswear was forgotten in the mezzanine and never taken out again.

Chu Tianshu squatted next to Leng Xue, hesitated for a while, and still unbuttoned her clothes one by one, when he took off his coat and shirt, the first thing that caught his eye was not the towering chest, but the criss-crossing scars on his back.

"How did she get hurt so much?" Chu Tianshu was suspicious, and tried to help her put on a short-sleeved sweatshirt as carefully as possible, he continued to untie her belt, held her hips and took off her pants, and a scene that surprised him even more appeared......
