Chapter 138: Action (8)
Xiu pulled Victoria up.
Her hair was already covered with snow particles, and her coat also had small pieces of ice slag frozen together, which looked particularly ugly.
But Victoria didn't care about that.
"Can't you go by yourself if I don't go. You're so good at running up on an avalanche, can the ice on the lake still hold you back? Why do you have to look for me. Xiu looked at Victoria's embarrassed appearance and couldn't help but look away.
"I might be able to step on the ice, but I can't bring anyone out." Victoria said indifferently, "Holding people, I can't walk like myself." I'll fall with them. ”
Xiu stopped talking.
Maybe Victoria wasn't as simple as she thought it was in the avalanche. He thought to himself.
"It's not that far away." Xiu said, "But if we want to go down the mountain, we will have to take a long detour. It's a distance of several kilometers down the mountain. This will take a lot of our time. ”
"Then let's climb down from here." Victoria rubbed her eyes and patted her face, sniffing to cheer herself up.
"Do you know how high it is here, do you know how dangerous it is. It's too cold now! It's easy for our fingers to get frozen, and there's a lot of fine snow on the rock wall, so it's easy for us to miss it! If we miss here, we will definitely be dead! Xiu Zou said with a frown.
"I'm willing to take risks. If we had gone down normally, we would have lost too much time. Victoria was unconcerned about these dangers and insisted on her opinion.
Because it's the fastest way to get down the mountain.
Xiu's brow furrowed even deeper. He didn't expect that Victoria would actually... It's a bit like myself. All are adventurous people.
He couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not going to agree to that."
Victoria seems to have anticipated, "It doesn't matter if you don't dare to climb the mountain, come to my back, I'll carry you." I was trained to climb this kind of mountain. ”
Xiu felt as if she had misunderstood something, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"That's not what I meant... It's true that I don't know how to climb mountains, but I would say that I have a better way. Xiu smiled slightly.
"How?" Victoria looked at Xiu's smile and didn't know why she felt a little chilled.
"Do you know why I chose this place as my hideout?" Xiu didn't answer her question, instead turning to look at the cliff.
Victoria, of course, didn't know. Who knows why Xiu would choose this desperate situation where there is nowhere to escape to hide.
"You don't think there's anywhere to run here, do you?" Xiu's voice was a little smug.
"It was here for the first test that I jumped over the cliff on horseback with fifty-one of my companions. Because of this crossing, we reduced the distance by nearly 100 miles and arrived at the meeting point in time. ”
"You... Want to jump over? Victoria looked at Xiu with some uncertainty.
"Yes!" Xiu responded with a big smile.
Victoria looked at Xiu in disbelief, and she thought Xiu must be crazy.
"You don't have a horse right now! Even if you have a horse, it is impossible for a horse to run more than one piece of speed on such snow! Do you know how easy it is to slip! ”
"Who said I was going to ride a horse." Xiu looked at Victoria, "Just jump directly." In a moment, you just have to jump over with all your might..."
"Impossible!" Victoria refused without hesitation: "I'm a Valkyrie, there's nothing wrong with me, but I'm not that powerful enough to jump over such a long cliff!" Besides, it's very windy on the cliff, and if we jump on it, we'll definitely be blown away! ”
"Didn't you say you wanted my help?" Xiu suddenly turned around and walked in front of Victoria, raised his head and looked at her seriously, "Since you want my help, then trust me." ”
Victoria was silent.
"I'd love to trust you, but you're going to tell me what you're going to do."
"You just have to believe me, it's my business to do it. Choose, I'll give you the fastest way to get down the mountain safely, and the fastest way to find your companions. And all you have to pay is a small bit of trust. After Xiu said this, he stopped talking.
Victoria's heart was at the pole in an instant. She couldn't believe that this little child could say something that she couldn't imagine.
Truth be told, she now prefers to believe that she can climb down the mountain than to believe that she can jump over it.
She knew that it was simply impossible!
However, such an impossible thing, the little boy looked at her so confidently and told her that it could be done.
Victoria gritted her teeth.
"If I hadn't jumped over, you had to save my teammates." She took a deep breath and prepared to walk to the edge of the cliff.
Xiu stopped her.
"You skipped it, what should I do?" He looked at Victoria with a smile and opened his hands to her.
Victoria, on the other hand, didn't understand the meaning of repair.
"Hold me and jump over together." Of course, the repair said.
"I can't get through it alone, plus you..."Victoria thought Xiu must be crazy.
"You can't get by alone. Plus me and you're good to go. Xiu bared his bright teeth and said confidently and affirmatively.
Victoria wanted to just throw Xiu to the ground, and shouted in a tantrum that "I won't play with you, I love to jump and jump by myself." She was sure that she couldn't jump over such a cliff at all, she was already nervous and willing to jump, and as a result, he had to take him with him!
Find someone to be buried! She still has companions to save, who is going to accompany him to die here!
But when she looked at Xiu's smiling face, Xiu's confident expression, and his open hands like a child wanting Victoria to hug him, Victoria endured the anxiety and uneasiness in her heart.
... Well, although Xiu is a kid now.
Victoria wanted to respond to him. Responding to Xiu's expectation that he could trust him more. So, she calmed down again and let herself continue to go crazy.
"If we hadn't jumped over, we'd all be dead." Victoria bent down to pick up Xiu.
Xiu was not much shorter than Victoria, and he was also at the height of Victoria's shoulders. Victoria didn't have a good time, but Xiu reached out and pressed Victoria's chest to stop her.
Victoria looked at Xiu puzzled, not knowing what he was going to do, but Xiu pressed her shoulder to prevent her from straightening up, motioning for her to continue like this and not move.
Xiu gently waved his hand and swept it over Victoria's coat, patting it carefully, carefully slapping off the frozen ice cubes and sticky snow particles on Victoria's body, and cleaning Victoria's things well.
The white woolen coat gradually became neat and beautiful in Xiu's hands.
He thought back to how Suzanne felt when he was giving himself his hair, and combed Victoria's long hair a little bit.
Victoria doesn't look so embarrassed now.
Victoria went from astonishment at the beginning, to a mess, to mildness at the end. No one knows what she's going through in her heart. She was so obedient to let Xiu tidy up her clothes little by little.
"Alright." Xiu nodded and smiled in satisfaction, then opened his hand and hugged Victoria's neck tightly, his face close to her ear and whispered, "Hold me tight, don't let go." I'll take you there! It's my secret, and no one else knows it! ”
Victoria nodded, hugging Xiu's waist tightly.
"We can get through, can we?" She whispered as if she were talking to herself.
"Yes, we can get through." Xiu responded with a smile.
Victoria held Xiu's hand a little harder.
She stood at the top of the downhill and took a deep breath and held back.
Possessed, bent on the knees...
Catapult out!
She was like a phantom, skimming across the snow, but not really a shadow. Wherever he walked, footprints slowly emerged.
The distance between the footprints was long, almost every one was four or five meters apart, and Victoria hugged Xiu tightly, her body almost touching the ground.
The cliff is getting closer and closer. Finally, it's just around the corner!
Victoria struggled to her feet, stretching her body like a bird into a graceful streamline, her coat hunting in the air, her hands tightly clasping the boy in her arms!
We can get over it! Victoria's heart was determined and unquestioning to think.
But the cliff is too long. Long enough for her to pass.
She felt her body falling, she felt her powerlessness in the sky.
Such a distance was too long, and she had no way to get over it.
I... You can go over! Victoria still thinks so.
The downward trend has already begun to become apparent, and it will only go down faster and faster.
I... Can pass!
At this moment, a strong crosscurrent wind suddenly crashed into Victoria's body.
The sudden strong wind made her a little embarrassed for a moment, and she didn't even maintain her body posture well.
I... Can you get over?
Victoria looked at Xiu, who was resting his face on her shoulder.
I saw Xiu's lips squirm a few times, but she couldn't hear what Xiu said.
Only one word can be vaguely seen.
"Hold me tight."
"Boom !!!!!" A loud bang like a siege cannon sounded behind Victoria, and she felt a powerful force burst out from Xiu's body in an instant!
The power of this moment made Victoria almost drag!
She hugged Xiu tightly, and hugged it very tightly!
She didn't know where this power came from, but... Now it is indeed Xiu Zai who is taking her to leap over this cliff!
Victoria endured the discomfort caused by the loss of strength and tried to adjust her body. Although it hurts, it gives her the strength to move forward out of thin air!
But that's not enough!
When Victoria realizes that this is not going to work, she looks at Xiu, who she realizes is also looking at her.
There was a glint of excitement in those clear eyes!
"Boom !!!"
Sure enough, a second loud bang rang out! But this time Victoria had been prepared, but even so, the pain made her almost unsteady, and Xiu almost came out of her hand.
Fortunately, she was still steady, and her arms were tightly wrapped around Xiu's waist!
The force of the second loud bang allowed them to fly steadily past the last distance, and the two of them fell to the cliff wall in embarrassment, rolling into a ball in the snow.
They gasped for air, their bodies trembling with excitement from the excitement of the aftermath.
Victoria faintly heard Xiu whispering, "It turns out that you can really come over..."
