Chapter 440: No Trace
The dark Dadu River roared in the darkness of the night, and the bottomless water roared and rolled and pounded in the winding river, as if it could shatter all the obstacles that stood in its way.
On both sides of the bank are high mountains and mountains, strange rocks are craggy, there is a winding road faintly in the middle of the mountain, and the cliff side next to the long slope is full of broken branches.
At the bottom of the cliff, it is almost a straight angle of 90 degrees, the branches of the trees are broken, and from time to time there are fine pieces of sand and gravel rolling down, and you can still vaguely see the traces left by the rolling and rubbing of the car.
Ling Li still maintained the action of the car when it fell off the cliff, lying motionless on the edge of the cliff for more than half an hour.
There was no trace of the car in her sight, but she refused to leave, and she had no idea of finding someone for help.
Her whole body was cold, and her hands were numb from the cold. My heart was also numb with pain, and there was only one thought in my heart.
She could no longer see him, no longer hear him say she was stupid, no longer feel the warmth of his palm sliding against her forehead.
She only felt that her eyes were painful, and she raised her hand to caress the corners of her eyes helplessly, but she only felt the blood clot on the wound on her cheek, and there was no trace of moisture.
If tears can erase all pain, what should you do when you can't cry?
Ling Li took a deep breath, looked down, and clenched her palm.
Once his hands were empty, and he filled them to the brim. When she lost him again, she found that she had actually lost the whole world.
Now that the truth about the murder of her family has been revealed, she can be regarded as careless.
Ling Li slowly stood up, and it was easy to stabilize her thin figure on the edge of the cliff.
It's very high down there, and your legs tremble at the first glance, but if you jump, you'll get closer to him.
"Wait for me to ......," she muttered, suddenly remembering his smile again.
The upper lip is thin and flat, the corners of the lips are flying wantonly, obviously the face is full of fierceness, and the smile is like a child.
"Pink girl......" his voice is still in his ears.
Ling Li laughed, her heart full of nostalgia.
He was always calling her one nickname after another in disgust, and the corners of his mouth were raised in a disgusting curvature.
What pink girls, sloths, owls, sea otters, mountain lotus leaves, and small year beasts...... There was nothing he couldn't think of.
"Pink Girl ......" is another sound, as if it was blown away in the wind, intermittently.
Ling Li's eyes widened, and an incredible thought popped up in her heart. As if the voice wasn't her hallucination.
She pricked up her ears to listen, but all she heard was the roar of the river and the mournful sound of the wind in the mountain stream.
She stood motionless, her heart beating faster, and hope burning in her heart.
"Powder...... Sister ......"
Finally, she heard it again.
It was indeed not a hallucination, and that weak and hoarse voice was not at all the disgusting and hateful tone of his memory.
Ling Li lowered her head, her voice trembling and hoarse, and shouted to the bottom of the cliff: "Is it you?" ”
A few seconds later, a wry smile came from directly below her position.
"Who else?"
The voice was small and weak, but the tone and timbre were the ones she couldn't be more familiar with.
"You! Where are you? Ling Li didn't care whether it was dangerous or not, and leaned out most of his body on the edge of the cliff, trying to find his shadow in the dim light.
"I ...... It seems to be hanging on a tree. Under the cliff was his somewhat embarrassed voice.
After a moment, his anxious voice sounded: "It's too dangerous, go back quickly." ”
He could see her!
Ling Li was even more pleased, motionless, his eyes wandering over the mountain below.
After a long time, she finally found a blurred shadow on the branches that stretched out obliquely at a height of more than ten meters vertically.
It seems that he was thrown out and hung on a tree branch in the process of the car rolling.
For a moment, she sat limply on the ground, tears streaming from her eyes, and the joy of her regained made her cry.
His weak voice floated from under the cliff: "I'm not dead yet, don't be in a hurry to cry." ”
A minute later, Ling Li couldn't hold back her tears and shouted downward, "I'll go find someone to save you." ”
Nanzhiyi came from below: "This is by the Dadu River, you have to find someone, at least dozens of kilometers away." ”
and dyed with her familiar voice that disgusted her stupidity: "What about the brain? ”
"What then?" Ling Li was at a loss and wiped away her tears, "Are you just waiting?" ”
"Of course," his voice was visibly out of breath, "hold your breath and wait for help." ”
When is it, this person is still in the mood to joke.
Ling Li couldn't be more anxious.
It is an abandoned national highway here, a lonely cliff surrounded by reckless mountains, and no one may come for ten days and half a month.
But let her walk dozens of kilometers to find rescue, not to mention when she will be able to arrive when she is limping, and when the temperature at night drops, the low temperature below zero, Nan Zhiyi is injured and bleeding, blowing the wind on the mountainside, how to survive?
Ling Li clenched her fists and said to herself: "No, I have to find a way to go down!" ”
But he looked at the cliff and shuddered.
How was she going to get down there with a foot injury? Even if she can get to Nan Zhiyi's side smoothly, the two of them can survive the night with their arms warm, but how can they come up?
She was at a loss when the sound of sirens could be heard from far and near.
Ling Li blinked, holding her breath and listening for a second.
Not an illusion, it was indeed the sound of a siren. In less than half a minute, flashing red and blue police lights appeared from the end of the road, and the whistling sirens gradually approached.
She almost jumped up, not remembering her ankle injury at all, and she ran two steps before falling to the ground.
Fortunately, she has already been spotted.
The sound of continuous brakes sounded in his ears, and in the night, a chaotic sound of footsteps approached.
I don't know who helped her up, but a police officer took off a warm coat wrapped around her body that had already frozen to the point of being unconscious.
She only had time to point to the place where the car fell off the cliff and shouted, "There is someone under the cliff!" Save him! ”
In the next second, it was dark in front of him, and he fell to the ground silently.
————
Winter turns to spring, and the tall jacaranda trees outside the window of the ward are covered with blue-purple flowers.
Ling Li lowered her eyes and checked the doctor's medication list, and said with a little joy in her voice: "Today is the last set of liquids, and there will be no orders tomorrow."
"Oh." The man lying on the hospital bed responded lightly, obviously not too concerned.
His eyes looked out the window at the green shade, as if he had something on his mind.
Ling Li didn't notice his absent-mindedness, after reading the medication list, he counted the days again, and said, "I've been living for four months, and it's time to be discharged." ”
He turned his head, looked at her with long narrow eyes, and said in an indifferent voice: "Okay, I see." ”
Ling Li bit her lip, plucked up a burst of courage, and asked him, "What's wrong with you?" ”
He shook his head: "Not much." ”
Ling Li didn't know how to continue the conversation, so she had to pick up the bedside menu and give it to him: "You see what you want to eat, I'll go to the restaurant to order." ”
His gaze stayed on it for less than a second, and he turned his head indifferently and said, "Whatever." ”
Ling Li walked out of the ward with a heavy heart, and just arrived in the corridor, she saw the head nurse patrolling the room with a group of young nurses.
During the four months of hospitalization, the head nurse had already known Ling Li and passed by her with a smile.
In the next second, the head nurse's crisp voice sounded behind him: "Zhu Jinchuan, take your temperature." ”
Ten minutes later, Ling Li ordered the meal and slowly walked back.
As she passed by the second inpatient building next to the cafeteria, her heart felt sour.
Nanzhiyi used to be hospitalized there, in the orthopedic ward.
When he was rescued, he had two puncture wounds, two broken ribs, and multiple bone cracks – fortunately, no internal organs.
It is a miracle that he survived two serious car accidents in which the car rolled over and not suffered too serious injuries.
After being rescued, he fell asleep for three days, and Ling Li had to visit him every day.
Unexpectedly, on the fourth day he quietly disappeared, and has not been heard from since.
Ling Li was at a loss and asked the hospital, and the hospital said that it didn't know where he went after he was transferred; Asked the police, the police said sorry for not revealing the privacy of citizens.
In the vast sea of people, Ling Li didn't know how to find him.
What made her even more incomprehensible was that after experiencing such a life-and-death parting, both sides understood that they were irreplaceable in each other's hearts, why did he avoid her?
She couldn't find him everywhere, and even begged Nan Zhijun and Tian Zhengyan.
However, Nan Zhijun was silent about where Nan Zhiyi was, and even Lu Jinran sighed at her: "Xiao Yi can't stand you, you forget him." ”
