Plop!

It fell heavily on the ground, and the scattered dead grass and slush that came down followed it fell for a while before stopping.

Fang Shao shook the covering on his body, before he dared to raise his head, and when he looked up, he couldn't help but gasp.

It was supposed to be a trap dug by hunters to catch large beasts, about five or six meters high, and it was estimated that the hunters wanted to catch live creatures, so they did not set barbs at the bottom of the pit, otherwise they would have been pierced into hedgehogs.

Fang Shao stomped on the ground, it was very soft, it should have accumulated thick withered grass, fortunately, it was like this, otherwise even if he was not pierced to death, if he fell so high, he would have to fall half-crippled.

"Miss Ma, are you alright?" Fang Shao searched through the glimmer of light leaking from the top, but saw Ma Yunlu lying a few steps away.

"I'm fine, it's like, oops-" Ma Yunlu tried to stand up, but when he moved, he felt that his bare feet hurt terribly.

"What's wrong, what's the injury?" Fang Shao rushed over with an arrow on his face.

Ma Yunlu hugged his feet and grinned: "It may be that I twisted my foot, and it hurts so much when I move." ”

"I'll take a look."

Something went wrong, Fang Shao didn't think much about it, squatted down, carefully took off her boots, and gently took off her socks as well.

Fang Shao only wanted to check her injury, and he couldn't think about it at all, but Ma Yunlu's face couldn't help but redden, Rao is that she has been used to Hu Feng for a long time, and her surname is open, but she can't help but feel a little shy when she is touched by a man's hand.

"Is this it?" Fang Shao saw that the left side of her foot was red and swollen, so he gently pressed it with his fingers.

Ma Yunlu immediately snorted in pain and shouted, "That's it, don't touch it, it hurts." ”

"It should just be a sprain, not a major injury, don't worry too much." Fang Shao comforted her gently, and carefully put on socks and boots for her.

"So what now?" Ma Yunlu looked at him blankly.

Fang Shao raised his head and glanced at the pit, frowned and said, "I'll try to see if I can climb out first, and if I succeed, I'll take a rope to pull you up." ”

Fang Shao rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, and tried to climb up along the pit wall, but the pit wall was dug vertically, and the soil was soft, so there was no way to focus on it, Fang Shao tried to climb a few times, and once when he saw that he was less than two meters away from the top of the pit, the wrench in his hand was loosened, and the whole person fell down again.

After many failures, Fang Shao had to give up, and then he opened his voice and yelled, hoping that someone nearby would hear him and come to the rescue, but he shouted hoarsely, and he didn't even see a ghost.

Fang Shao sat down and gasped: "Forget it, just wait here for a while, Ah Shan, they didn't go back when they saw me, and it shouldn't be long before they come back to look for us." ”

Ma Yunlu leaned over, covered his feet, put his head on his shoulder, and muttered: "If I hadn't dragged you to hunt, you wouldn't have been trapped here, do you blame me?" ”

Ma Yunlu's intimate behavior, Fang Shao couldn't figure out whether she did it on purpose or instinctively, but he had known her for a long time, and he was used to it, so he didn't feel too uncomfortable, so he only replied lightly: "It's all an accident, hunting, anything can happen, it's quite exciting to say." ”

Seeing that he didn't mean to blame, Ma Yunlu's expression softened a lot, and he took advantage of the situation to put his arm up, "I know you won't blame me, if you like hunting, then I will often accompany you in the future." ”

The meaning of this move could not be clearer, and Fang Shao's heart couldn't help but move.

The sky was getting dark, and the overcast sky began to splash with snowflakes again. Fluttering snow flakes fell leisurely from the wide gap on the top of the pit, softly, quietly, and silently.

Fang Shao suddenly remembered the old thing, and asked, "Why didn't you say goodbye?" ”

Ma Yunlu was stunned, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, "After I leave, are you very worried about me." ”

"What's the matter, I was just afraid that one of your daughters' family would go back to Chengdu and encounter danger on the way." Fang Shao casually made up a lie.

Ma Yunlu laughed with a puff, and there was a bit of mockery between the laughter.

Fang Shao immediately understood how unreliable his lies were, that was Jin Ma Chao's sister, who killed more than ten thieves, and Ma Yunlu, who was alone and retreated from the group, said that he was worried about the danger that people would encounter on the road, wasn't that obvious nonsense.

Fang Shao felt a little embarrassed, and scratched his head, "Okay, I admit that I made it up, then can you answer my question." ”

Ma Yunlu pulled his arm tighter, she didn't answer, just said, "What do you say?" ”

Ma Yunlu's performance once again reflected the unbreakable truth that women's minds are capricious, Fang Shao can also guess the ** points, but he is unwilling to think deeply, because he feels that the relationship between the women around him is quite chaotic, and if it is mixed in with a Ma Chao's sister, it will only be more of a headache.

"Do your feet still hurt?" Fang Shao tried to change the subject.

"It's okay, this little injury is nothing."

"The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and it's going to get darker, it's going to get colder and colder, you're already injured, and it's not good if you get cold again, I'll try to climb it again."

Fang Shao found a very suitable excuse, pulled out of Ma Yunlu's close proximity without a trace, and tried a few more times, but it still didn't work.

"It's useless, you better not waste your efforts, keep your strength to keep warm." Ma Yunlu persuaded.

Fang Shao glanced up at the sky, it was already so dark that he couldn't see the shadows of the trees outside, and it was getting colder and colder in the pit.

"We've gone too far, even if they come to look for it, it is estimated that it will be difficult for this black light to find us, no, we still have to go out. If only I had tools at hand. ”

Fang Shao searched anxiously, and suddenly, he saw the dagger that Ma Yunlu pinned to his waist.

"It turns out that you have a dagger with you, why didn't you give it to me earlier." Fang Shao complained.

"I ...... My feet hurt and I forgot. Ma Yunlu explained hesitantly, and reluctantly took out the dagger and gave it to Fang Shao.

Fang Shao didn't have time to say more, he pulled out the dagger and got busy. With the help of the dagger, he was able to dig grooves in the pit wall, and with the help of these support points, he could climb up inch by inch, and after half an hour, the panting Fang Shao finally climbed out of the pit.

At this moment, the surroundings are already pitch black, and it is only through the reflection of the snow that I can have a slight vision. Fang Shao lay on his back on the snow with his face to the sky and lay down for a while before he gasped. And when he got up and tried to find the two mounts, he found that the two beasts were gone.

"Grandma, it's really not righteous enough, in vain Lao Tzu usually gives you the best forage."

When the horse left, Fang Shao had no choice but to untie his belt and coat, reluctantly make a rope, and then threw a knot into a loop and threw it down, shouting loudly: "You put the rope around your waist, and I will pull you up." ”

Ma Yunlu, who was at the bottom of the pit, answered, and also got up from the ground, endured the pain in his feet, touched it in the dim light for a while, and finally touched the rope, and after putting himself on it, he pulled the rope, raised his head and shouted, "I'm tied." ”

Fang Shao above took a deep breath, wrapped the rope around his hand a few times, and with a low roar, he stepped back vigorously.

Although Ma Yunlu is a daughter's family, he is tall and tall, not to mention a hundred catties in weight, so he only uses a rope to pull it, and the ground is particularly smooth, Fang Shao is very difficult to pull up. A few times his feet slipped, and he almost fell up, only to strangle his hand so painfully that he lost consciousness before he could barely hold on.

After tossing for an unknown amount of time, Fang Shao yelled, kicked a few steps with all his strength, and finally dragged Ma Yunlu up.

Then he collapsed from exhaustion and fell headlong on the snow. And Ma Yunlu was also dangling and tossing enough, and he was lying there at this time and didn't want to move. In the forest on this snowy night, only the heavy wheezing sound of two men and women could be heard, and if someone passed by, they would definitely think crookedly.

After a long time, Fang Shao finally regained his strength, and only then did he get up and walk over, helped Ma Yunlu who was lying on the ground up, and asked with concern: "How are you, are you not hurt?" ”

Ma Yunlu nodded, looked around, and asked, "Where are our horses?" ”

Fang Shao smiled helplessly, "Those two brutes, it is estimated that it is easy to run into the master's trouble, so they took the opportunity to elope." ”

Ma Yunlu was originally exhausted by tossing, but when he said this, he couldn't help but be amused, and scolded with a smile: "What a disloyal beast, if you find them next time, you must slaughter them for barbecue and eat." ”

After being happy, Ma Yunlu couldn't help frowning again and said: "Without a horse, I can't go, but what should I do." ”

Fang Shaochang let out a sigh, stood in front of her, and bowed down with his back to her, "What else can I do, of course I left on your back, come up quickly." ”

Ma Yunlu was moved in his heart, but he refused: "Then how can I do it, you have been tired like that when you pulled me up, where can you still have the strength to carry me again." ”

"I said that I will carry it, where is so much nonsense, come up." Fang Shaosuo grabbed her calf and carried her on her back with a force.

In the snowy night, he carried her on his back, looking for the footprints when he came, one foot deeper, one foot shallow, and walked forward step by step.

Ma Yunlu lay on top of the man, his head pressed tightly against his back, and her ears were full of wind and snow, but she could hear his heartbeat.

Step by step, the snow became heavier and heavier, the ground became more and more difficult to walk, and the footprints he came from were gradually swallowed up by the falling snow, and he had to speed up his pace, and his breath became heavier because of it.

I don't know how long it took, Fang Shao stopped, because the footprints left when they came could no longer be seen on the ground, and their footprints were completely covered by the snow.

"Isn't it, lost?"
