Chapter 298: Asking for help
Liu Chengcheng carried Xi Guanqing into the woods on his back, and he was already tired and sweating profusely before he had gone far.
Just when she was exhausted, she saw two passengers on the side of the road in front of her, who were bowing their heads and cutting the parachute lines wrapped around their bodies.
"Are you hurt?" Liu Chengcheng stepped forward happily and asked them.
The two looked up at Liu Chengcheng in unison, shook their heads and replied, "No." ”
After saying that, the two continued to bow their heads and fight with the parachute line.
"It's dangerous here, you have to leave before dark." Liu Chengcheng opened her mouth to admonish the two, and then she opened her mouth a little embarrassed, trying to discuss with the two: "My friend fell into a coma when he fell, he was too tall to move him, but I have learned to survive in the wild, if you can trust me, can you please help me carry my friend, I will be responsible for finding the exit." All right? ”
One of them happened to cut the paracord, he threw away the stone in his hand, looked at Liu Chengcheng like a fool and said, "You also know that it is dangerous here?" I can't even escape, why should I save you from a burden! You're good at yourself, I'll go first. ”
After speaking, the man waved his hand at Liu Chengcheng proudly and quickly left the place.
"What about you? Won't you help too? Liu Chengcheng pinned his hopes on the remaining men.
The man put down the stone in his hand, looked up at Liu Chengcheng and asked, "Do you have a knife?" It's so hard to cut off. ”
Liu Chengcheng thought that there was hope, she hunched her back and opened the bag straddling her chest, and took out a delicate small carving knife from it.
Without thinking about it, she handed it to the man sitting on the ground, and asked him earnestly, "Do you think this is okay?" ”
"Yes, thank you." The man took the carving knife, cut the umbrella rope after dividing it by two in three strokes, and then he stood up from the ground, threw the carving knife in his hand back to Liu Chengcheng, waved his hand at him and said, "Bye, you go slowly!" ”
With that, the man turned and walked forward.
"I helped you, how can you say just go, white-eyed wolf, you." Liu Chengcheng angrily scolded at the back of the man leaving.
The man didn't seem to hear the angry scolding behind him, and without even the slightest pause, he disappeared from Liu Chengcheng's sight without looking back.
……
Liu Chengcheng was helpless, so he could only carry Xi Guanqing on his back and continue to walk forward.
On the way, she also met several passengers who had landed in the woods, and she also asked them for help, but the results were the same.
The reason for rejecting Liu Chengcheng was that they were worried that the comatose Xi Guanqing would drag them down.
After encountering walls everywhere, Liu Chengcheng dispelled the idea of asking for help, gritted his teeth alone and insisted on finding an exit with Xi Guanqing on his back.
Due to the slow speed of her movements, coupled with the rapid depletion of her physical strength, when she reached the depths of the dense forest, she completely collapsed to the ground, and no longer had the strength to get up.
"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......" The sound of stones crashing into the quiet woods sounded.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Liu Chengcheng knew that they were going to spend it here tonight.
To protect herself from wolves, she used her last strength to collect the branches and dead wood around her and set them on fire with the flint she carried with her.
"Hmm......" may have felt the warmth of the flames, and Xi Guanqing, who was in a coma, suddenly groaned.
Liu Chengcheng sat up vigilantly, reached out and pushed Xi Guanqing, who was lying beside him, and called out to him: "Mr. Xi? Wake up, don't sleep, Xi ......"
"Hiss......" In the process of Xi Guanqing's body moving, he pulled the wound and grinned in pain, and at the same time woke up in pain.
Xi Guanqing propped up his body, looked at the surrounding environment blankly, turned his head to Liu Chengcheng and asked, "What's the matter?" Where are we? ”
"When I landed, you fell unconscious to protect me, and we had to find an exit to get out of here before dark, but you were too heavy, so I had to carry you here overnight." Liu Chengcheng held a branch in his hand, stirring the fire, and explained to Xi Guanqing lightly.
Xi Guanqing naturally knew the danger of his surroundings, he looked up at the sky that had not yet completely become dark, and he struggled to get up with his hands and feet.
He said to Liu Chengcheng anxiously: "No, we must leave the ...... quickly"
"Whew."
Before Xi Guanqing finished speaking, a long wolf howl interrupted him.
"Yes." Liu Chengcheng stood up from the ground with a spirit, she looked around vigilantly, looked around, lowered her head from the satchel on her chest, rummaged through and found the carving knife just now, and then threw a thick branch to Xi Guanqing and said: "The wolf is coming, get ready to fight!" ”
After speaking, Liu Chengcheng's waist sank down and he made a lunge, and his hands took a defensive posture.
Her posture looked like she had been practiced, which surprised Xi Guanqing very much, but now he didn't have time to delve into it, he also raised the wooden stick in his hand to be vigilant about the surrounding movements.
"Click, click, click."
In the silence, there was a sudden sound of crushing fallen leaves.
The two of them looked into the depths of the woods in front of them, only to see the silhouette of a wolf slowly appearing, two green eyes staring at the two of them, opening their mouths to show their eerie fangs.
Seeing that there was only one wolf, Liu Chengcheng and Xi Guanqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that wolves generally move in groups, and the horse in front of them was obviously left alone and mistakenly broken.
"Whew......"
The wolf suddenly raised its head to the sky and let out a long howl, then it erected its fur, pulled its legs and pounced on the two men not far away.
"It just called out to its companions, and it must be done quickly." After Liu Chengcheng turned his head and said a word to Xi Guanqing, his figure flashed and swung his knife towards the wolf.
Xi Guanqing reacted quickly, and then joined the battle with a wooden stick.
The wolf was currently under attack on its belly and back, and when it turned to attack Xi Guanqing, Liu Chengcheng, who was behind it, slammed down on its back, and the carving knife in his hand slashed through its neck accurately.
Suddenly, warm and fishy wolf blood spurted out, and its tall body shook a few times, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
"Hurry up, the wolves are coming."
Liu Chengcheng ignored the blood on his hands, pulled Xi Guanqing and ran in the opposite direction.
After this battle, Liu Chengcheng and Xi Guanqing formed a deep revolutionary friendship and got along much closer.
……
The bushes were bigger than the woods, and after Liu Chengcheng and Xi Guanqing got in, they didn't get out until dawn.
Fortunately, they were not chased by the wolves, and the bushes did not encounter any dangerous creatures other than poisonous insects.
"It's finally out, we survived two deaths in one day, and we didn't expect to be alive." Xi Guanqing collapsed to the ground panting and sighed happily.
Liu Chengcheng was also so tired that she was panting, and after resting for a while, she got up from the ground with difficulty, and urged Xi Guanqing weakly: "It's not safe here, get out of here quickly and find a better place to stay." ”
"Are you leaving?" Xi Guanqing reluctantly sat up, looked up at Liu Chengcheng and asked, "I'm hungry, sleepy, and tired now, can I sleep first before leaving?" It's dawn anyway. ”
"No, no one knows if there are any other beasts here, you hold on a little longer." After Liu Chengcheng finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pulled Xi Guanqing up.
The two of them supported each other and staggered on.
Walking out of the distance, a stream appeared in front of the two, Liu Chengcheng was overjoyed, helped Xi Guanqing to the stream, picked up the water and poured it into his mouth, and at the same time cleaned up the dirt on his face.
"When you quench your thirst, get up and walk along this creek, and soon someone will appear, and then see if you can find a family to settle in." Liu Chengcheng opened his mouth and said to Xi Guanqing.
Xi Guanqing regained some strength, and after he hurriedly washed his face, he got up and helped Liu Chengcheng to continue walking.
As Liu Chengcheng expected, he didn't go far before he saw a small farm yard.
The two of them felt very happy in their hearts, and they couldn't help but speed up their steps and reached the door of the house as fast as they could.
"Knock knock." Liu Chengcheng raised his hand and knocked on the closed door, and asked loudly, "Is anyone at home?" We were passing through, coming in and begging for a glass of water. ”
"Wait a minute." Someone inside soon answered.
A moment later, the closed door creaked open, and a middle-aged woman in an apron appeared in front of the two of them, seemingly putting down her work and hurrying to open the door.
"Auntie, the plane we took crashed and fell here for a day and a night, I wonder if you can let us stay here for one night?" Xi Guanqing was the first to ask her aunt.
The aunt saw that the two of them were hooked shoulders and backs, covered in dirt, and looked like people in distress.
"You're two, aren't you?" The aunt didn't answer Xi Guanqing, but suddenly asked the two of them rhetorically.
"No ......"
Liu Chengcheng just wanted to explain, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she felt a sinking on her shoulders, and Xi Guanqing hugged her tightly into his arms.
"Auntie has such a good eye, we are indeed husband and wife, and we originally planned to travel abroad, but I didn't expect the plane to crash suddenly." Xi Guanqing admitted with a look of acceptance.
Hearing Xi Guanqing's answer, the aunt seemed to relax her vigilance all of a sudden, and she opened the door and invited them warmly: "How could you encounter such a big thing?" I'm lucky you've survived, so come in! Don't stand. ”
The two were invited into the house, and the aunt took them to a bedroom and said to them with a smile: "This is my son's room, he usually works in the city, and he will not come back until he has a holiday, so you can rest here first!" ”
"Thank you, Auntie, thank you so much." Liu Chengcheng bent down and bowed to express his gratitude to his aunt.
The aunt is also a cheerful person, and immediately stepped forward to help Liu Chengcheng and said, "Don't be so polite to me, you have fled for so long, you must be hungry." I'm just in the middle of the pancakes, and you're waiting for me to make a few more. ”
After saying that, the aunt left the room and rushed to the kitchen to get busy.
