Chu Tianshu was so anxious that his whole body began to sweat, sweat rolled down from his eyebrows, almost blindfolded, he raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead. At this time, he suddenly saw the beam of the flashlight: it turned out that the cold snow was about ten meters above him.

Chu Tianshu had always thought that the cold snow should be below him, so he ignored the upper part of the cliff.

It seems that the slide just now was too fast.

The location of the cold snow is on a cliff about 30 meters below the mountain road.

"I found you!" Chu Tianshu shouted on his phone.

"Come on!" Leng Xue cried again because of the excitement.

"Wait a minute, get ready to climb!" Chu Tianshu hung up the phone and looked up at the life-saving rope hanging down along the cliff, climbing up is much slower than sliding down, and it is much more difficult, and there is still a horizontal distance of nearly two meters between the position of the cold snow and the lifeline.

It's easy to go down, but hard to go up!

You can use the gravity of the human body to go down, and you only need to control the speed with both hands. The key is that the cliff is too smooth, and the feet are not strong, because they also need to move two meters sideways, so the requirements for arm strength are higher.

After sitting in the SASAC for more than two years, Chu Tianshu's physical strength was not as good as when he was in college, and he climbed online with courage and perseverance, and approached the depression where the cold snow was little by little.

Leng Xue's body was close to the rock wall, she was even more nervous than Chu Tianshu, silently cheering him in her heart, praying, and using a flashlight to illuminate the surrounding terrain for him, so that Chu Tianshu could find a place to settle more smoothly.

Finally, about ten minutes, Chu Tianshu dragged the life-saving rope and stepped on the sunken rock, Leng Xue tried his best to suppress his excitement, slowly stretched out his hand, grabbed the rope head thrown by Chu Tianshu, and then, hugged Chu Tianshu who was hanging on the cliff wall tightly, tears gushing out.

"Cold snow, cold snow, calm down." Chu Tianshu's toes and arms felt the pressure.

Leng Xue appeared a little shy, let go of her hand, and then tightly grabbed the lifeline.

"Not good!" Leng Xue let out a soft cry, her unique vigilance had been cultivated by the harsh training she had once hauled.

"What's wrong?" Chu Tianshu asked in surprise.

Leng Xue didn't speak, put her ear close to the lifeline, her face suddenly became solemn, and she whispered, "There are people up there!" ”

Yes?! The sweat on Chu Tianshu's head welled up again.

Leng Xue's keen judgment was correct.

Wan Zhiliang and the others had already touched the mountain, found the bicycle that Chu Tianshu threw on the side of the road, and quickly found the lifeline tied to the tree. One of the security guards squatted down and tried how tight the lifeline was, and with such a subtle movement, it happened to be caught by Leng Xue, who had just grabbed the lifeline.

Wan Zhiliang sneered silently, signaled several security guards to disperse, each holding a shotgun and a dagger and waiting for Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue to climb up, and then come to an urn to catch turtles.

Before the joy of the encounter was realized, it was immediately blown away by the threat it faced.

Leng Xue's remorse surged up again, she closed her eyes in pain, and hated herself in her heart: You are afraid of death, why do you want to agree to Chu Tianshu to risk death to save him?

Chu Tianshu gradually calmed down, he didn't move, leaning on the lifeline and listening carefully to the subtle movements from the top of the deep ditch, a few broken sand particles rolled down, it was impossible for such a fine sand to fall on the smooth and slippery cliff wall, someone must have moved on it and fell.

"What should I do?" The same question popped up in the minds of two people.

Climb up, you can only tie your hands and catch it.

Hanging in mid-air is equivalent to sitting still.

Down, there is an unfathomable sinkhole.

Take a gamble! Chu Tianshu looked down and saw the tops of several big trees, he gritted his teeth and made a choice: going down, it may not be a dead end When Chu Tianshu told Leng Xue this decision by ear, Leng Xue opened his eyes and looked down, understanding Chu Tianshu's intentions, as long as he can get close to the big tree under his feet, there may be a glimmer of life, as for whether there can be a way out after going down to the bottom, I can't care so much for the time being.

However, the position I am in now is at least thirty meters away from the treetops of the big tree, and the remaining length of the lifeline is all put down, and there is still a distance of about ten meters from the treetops.

"Leng Xue, you give me the dagger." Chu Tianshu suddenly had an idea.

Leng Xue hesitated and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Climb up!"

"No, you're going to die!" Leng Xue resolutely disagreed, she said eagerly: "They have guns and knives in their hands, as long as you come forward and don't wait for you to shoot, they can easily put you to death." ”

Chu Tianshu smiled and shook his head.

Leng Xue's heart involuntarily rippled, he could still laugh at this life-and-death juncture, just like the first time he saw it in the fragrance of osmanthus, smiling so easily and confidently, with a little smug and weird.

Chu Tianshu was close to Leng Xue's face, and the heavy manly aura made Leng Xue's heart beat.

"I pretended not to know anything, climbed up slowly, and when I reached the top, I would cut the lifeline......"

Leng Xue covered his mouth: "What do you want to do?" You're going to fall to pieces. ”

"I'm not doing it, huh?" Chu Tianshu learned the northeast accent of cold snow and said, "If you fix the lifeline on the corner of the rock, won't I be able to fall?" Most of the rope is down, and we can go down to the big tree, and then go down the big tree to the bottom of the valley, understand? ”

"This ...... It's too risky. Leng Xue was amazed by Chu Tianshu's bold idea, this is probably the only way to choose under the premise that there is no other way at present. However, if he suddenly fell nearly 30 meters from a high altitude, once he hit the rock with poor control, he would definitely die of blood.

However, as long as the lifeline can be lowered, the cold snow on the rock can be used to descend to the bottom of the valley with the help of the length of the rope, and there may be hope of survival.

Chu Tianshu was gambling with his life, in order for Leng Xue to gain life.

"Let me come, I'm better than you." Leng Xue held back her tears, she wanted to leave the hope of life to Chu Tianshu.

Chu Tianshu smiled faintly again: "Leng Xue, I really don't want to rob you, but look, can we change positions?" ”

Indeed, the small space recessed into the cliff wall can only accommodate one person, and it is almost an impossible task for two people to exchange places.

Leng Xue's tears welled up again, she hugged Chu Tianshu's face, her lips pressed against his mouth, and gave him an affectionate kiss.

Chu Tianshu turned his face away and said, "Leng Xue, you wrap the rope well, and I'll go up." ”

Leng Xue tried his best to stick his body to the cliff wall, wrapped the remaining ten meters of life-saving rope around the protruding corner of the rock, and in order to prevent slipping, he also dug a shallow groove with a dagger, and then pulled the rope head tightly in his hand.

After doing all this, she nodded to Chu Tianshu with tears in her eyes.

Chu Tianshu climbed up little by little again, and when he encountered a place with small branches, he used a lifesaving rope to wrap around it a few times, of course, these small branches were not enough to bear the weight of a person, but after the rope was cut for a while, it could slow down the speed of the body falling a little.

After climbing up for more than twenty meters, the people above could almost hear Chu Tianshu's gasp, they were holding weapons and waiting for them, and only someone could throw themselves into the net.

But they never expected that just when they were proudly about to take it alive, the rope suddenly broke, and the end of the rope tied to the big tree shook up the old high.

Chu Tianshu fell rapidly.

Due to the early mental preparation, and the rope was constantly pulled by the small branches, the speed of the fall at the beginning was slowed down, which also allowed Chu Tianshu to maintain the posture of facing the cliff, his left hand tightly grasped the lifesaving rope, and the dagger in his right hand slashed across the smooth rock face, splashing a string of sparks, which also effectively reduced the acceleration of the fall.

Despite this, Chu Tianshu's body was constantly rubbing and crashing against the cliff, he completely forgot about the pain, and there was only one thought in his mind, hold on, you must hold on!

Falling, falling, falling faster and faster.

The wind swept in Chu Tianshu's ears.

Passing near where Leng Xue was, Leng Xue covered her mouth and sobbed.

Chu Tianshu touched the treetops, and his face and body were hung by the branches, but the speed of his fall slowed down a lot.

Finally, the rope tightened suddenly, Chu Tianshu slammed into the cliff wall, a heart-piercing pain came from his left thigh, and the injured part was attacked by a branch, and the blood flowed profusely.

Chu Tianshu was dizzy for a while, but his willpower supported him to endure the pain, and he shook his body slightly, feeling that he didn't seem to be too seriously injured except for his thighs.

The dagger in his right hand is still there, the backpack on his body is still there, but his clothes are torn, and the mobile phone has flown somewhere.

He dragged the lifeline with his left hand, tried to find a stronger branch with his right foot, let go of his left hand slightly, and after making sure that he stepped on it, he found another branch, rode on it with his legs crossed, and put the dagger into his backpack, and then shook the lifeline vigorously and told the cold snow above that he was still alive.

Leng Xue also gently shook the loose lifeline.

Without mobile phone contact, we can only rely on this most primitive way to report information.

The security guard at the top of the cliff fired another shot, but he didn't aim it, and the bullet flew down from the branches, startling a large group of birds resting in the trees again, and the stingers flew up and rushed into the night sky.

Leng Xue slid down the lifeline quickly, the rope embedded in the crack of the rock made a clicking sound, and when she approached the treetops, the lifeline suddenly broke, Leng Xue subconsciously screamed, and her body smashed directly on the top of Chu Tianshu's head.
