Chapter 134: Difficult
Ignoring the numb stomach that was already painful, he looked around for something to borrow, and after seeing a long wooden stick not far away, he immediately walked over.
"Mother, how are you? I'll pull you up now". Qin Chu stretched out the stick, and Yang Mu moved her body with great difficulty.
It's a pity that Qin Chu misestimated her ability, how could she easily pull Yang Mu up with her little strength.
I tried twice, but I failed. As time passed, the strength of the two of them was also running out little by little......
"Chu Chu, you go first, don't worry about your mother's ......" If you continue like this, neither of you can escape.
Just as Qin Chu was sliding down the slope and was about to use his body to lift Mother Yang out, he suddenly heard someone's voice coming towards them. Saying something she didn't understand, she didn't have to think about it to know that it must be the enemy who didn't give up, so she looked for her again.
The two of them suddenly stiffened in fright, looked at each other with pale faces, and saw despair in each other's eyes......
The two of them remained in their original position, not daring to move, and even their breathing stopped. I'm afraid that if there is a little noise, people will be summoned.
Just when Qin Chu felt that time seemed to be as long as a century had passed, there was a sudden sound of dirt sliding overhead, and then a fat rabbit ran over the two of them. I heard someone whispering something not far away, and the footsteps faded away.
Qin Chu and Mother Yang breathed a sigh of relief, until they couldn't hear any other sounds except the rustling sound of the wind blowing, and Qin Chu realized that the clothes on his back were already tightly attached to his skin.
"Mother, you step on my shoulder, I'll help you up." Qin Chu moved and squatted down.
"I ......" Mother Yang was about to excuse herself, but was quickly interrupted by Qin Chu: "There is no delay at this time, in case they turn back again, my own body knows that it will not be strong."
Mother Yang knew Qin Chu's personality, she would not leave her no matter what, and now in this situation, it was better to leave as soon as possible so that it would not affect her.
Mother Yang hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and agreed with Qin Chu's opinion.
By the time the two of them finally climbed up from the bottom of the pit, it was already getting dark outside.
It was late autumn and the evening temperature was already below freezing. When he escaped, he also dropped a burden, and the money was on Ah Cheng's body, and the two of them were alone on this potholed barren mountain, and they didn't dare to make a fire.
"Mother, we can't stay here any longer, the temperature is lower at night, we have to find someone first." Qin Chuleng's voice trembled a little.
opened the only remaining burden on his body, took out all the jackets and thin cotton pants inside, and let Yang's mother put them on.
"You're a double, you can't make any mistakes, or you wear it." Mother Yang's attitude was very resolute this time, no matter how Qin Chu persuaded her, she was resolute not to wear it.
Qin Chu couldn't, took the cotton pants and put them on himself, and handed the jacket to Mother Yang: "Mother, put this on, now in this situation, it's not good for anyone to be sick." We'll have one piece at a time, so we'll all be a little better. ”
Mother Yang had no choice but to nod, holding a wooden stick in one hand and Qin Chu in the other, the two of them walked forward with difficulty.
Qin Chu still remembered what Ah Cheng had said, to keep walking south, for fear of deviating from the route, and to glance at the sky from time to time to discern the direction.
Occasionally, she glanced in the direction behind her, even if she was already crazy about that person in her heart, she tried to control her emotions, and even comforted herself, after all, there was Mother Yang and the child in her belly, and she resolutely did not allow herself to be weak.
Along the way, she would also pay attention to the movements on both sides of the road from time to time, for fear that Ah Cheng would have an accident, which was the last thing she wanted to see.
The two of them walked and stopped like this, and they walked for most of the night without seeing anyone. On the contrary, because the road was uneven and there were many thorns and weeds, the two of them had a difficult walk, and finally they were exhausted. As a last resort, Qin Chu had to find a leeward place on the hillside, and there was no fire, so the two had to hug together to keep warm.
fell asleep in a daze, and when the sky was just dawning, Yang Mu suddenly heard a rustling sound getting closer and closer, and she was so frightened that she suddenly became energetic, and hurriedly pushed Qin Chu beside her.
Qin Chu whispered in response, feeling as if he was in the clouds, his mind was dizzy, and his limbs couldn't use his strength. Obviously I know it in my heart, but my eyelids seem to weigh a thousand gold.
Mother Yang soon discovered that Qin Chu was wrong, she was a little anxious with her exhaled breath, and tentatively reached out to probe her forehead, which turned out to be a little hot.
Caring about anything else, Mother Yang hurriedly took the person in her arms and called softly: "Chu Chu-"
He didn't get a reply from Qin Chu for a long time. At this time, the rustling sound was approaching, and Mother Yang hugged Qin Chu in her arms tightly, and held the wooden stick beside her tightly with her other hand. His eyes were fixed in the direction from which the voice came from.
Suddenly, a black shadow came out of the weeds, and by the hazy moonlight, Yang Mu opened her eyes wide and tried to identify it, and said with some uncertainty: "Ah...... Yes? ”
said that Ah Cheng, in order to lure away the pursuers, ran quickly in another direction alone, however, no matter how fast he was, he still couldn't get as fast as the enemy's arrows, and he accidentally rolled down the middle of the hill.
Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy had not yet chased him, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow on his shoulder, and only bandaged it briefly, fearing that running in the agreed direction would attract the pursuers, so he made a long detour, and finally made sure that no one was chasing him, so he returned the same way and rushed south according to the agreement.
"What's wrong with you? Injured? Although it was dark and it was not real, the faint smell of blood on Ah Cheng's body still made Yang's mother aware of it.
"A little injury". Ah Cheng replied simply, his eyes fell on Qin Chu in Yang's mother's arms, and immediately discovered that something was wrong with her: "Girl, what's wrong with her?" ”
"Maybe it's cold, my forehead is very hot when I touch it, we have to find a doctor as soon as possible." Mother Yang said worriedly.
"It's all my wife who has caused her, if it weren't for me, she would ......"
Mother Yang was a little choked up when she spoke, now she can't go to the village and the back of the store, her legs and feet are inconvenient, Ah Cheng was injured again, Qin Chu is like this, how can it be good.
"The old lady will hand it over to me." Ah Cheng pursed his lips and squatted down in front of Yang's mother. Mother Yang hesitated slightly, but still put Qin Chu on his back.
"No, no, you just have to carry the person well." Ah Cheng carried the person on his back, and wanted to reach out to help Yang's mother, but she refused.
Having an injury himself, and taking into account Qin Chu behind him, Ah Cheng was indeed a little too busy to take care of himself, seeing that Mother Yang was struggling to get up with a stick, he didn't say anything, raised his legs and walked forward slowly.
In order not to lag behind, Mother Yang dragged her injured leg and tried to keep up.
The two walked from late at night to the dawn of the sky, I don't know how far they went, and suddenly saw a trace of cooking smoke rising from the col in the distance, and Yang Mu excitedly pointed to the distance for Ah Cheng to see.
Ah Cheng wiped the beads of sweat in front of him, blinked his eyes twice, and his expression relaxed.
Because of his injury, excessive blood loss, and having such a long way with Qin Chu on his back, he was already at the end of his crossbow, and he began to feel dizzy and vague.
Seeing that hope was in front of them, the two of them were suddenly full of strength, even if they wanted to climb, they had to climb to the place, and when they got to the place, Qin Chu would be saved.
For such a long time, Qin Chu has been in a semi-comatose state, as if in the sea and as if in the clouds. She could faintly hear the voice in her ears, but she couldn't really hear whose voice it was.
For a while, I thought I was at home in Wansong Town, and suddenly felt that someone had fed something in my mouth, thinking it was Yang Zhengming, and I was happy in my heart, and just called "Zhengming ......" and opened my eyes.
"Chu Chu, you're finally awake." When Mother Yang saw her open her eyes, she was happy and obviously the corners of her mouth were smiling, but her tears couldn't stop falling.
raised his arm and rubbed it on her face, seeing that her eyes were still a little dazed, she hurriedly explained: "We are saved, this is a hunter's house, and you have been in a coma for a day and a night......"
Qin Chu listened to Mother Yang's words, and his eyes gradually darkened. It turned out that everything was just a dream......
"How are you, are you feeling better?" Mother Yang said for a long time, seeing that her expression was still stunned, she couldn't help but put down the bowl in her hand and raised her hand to probe the temperature of her forehead.
"There are barren mountains everywhere here, only this family, I don't want to find a doctor, Ah Cheng's child is too, I don't say that I was so seriously injured, I just gritted my teeth and carried you here, and now people haven't woken up yet......"
"Ah Cheng?" Qin Chu muttered, his originally dull gaze turned around, and when he heard Mother Yang's words, he couldn't lie down anymore, and he was about to get up with his elbows on the bed.
As soon as she moved, she found that she didn't even have the strength to get up for a while, and her head was buzzing because of her movements.
"You're still sick, lie down!" Mother Yang nervously hurriedly helped the person to lie back on the bed.
"Where is Ah Cheng's injury? Does it matter? Qin Chu grabbed Yang's mother's hand and asked nervously.
"There is no doctor here, fortunately, the man who saved us knows a little about herbal medicine, but he can only simply dispense a little medicine, you are also sick now, you still have to find a doctor as soon as possible."
"The little lady is awake?" While the two were talking, the curtain was lifted and a woman in her forties entered. Pan-headed, round face, eyebrows are a little sparse, cheeks are red on the plateau, and the smile is more obvious. It makes her look very honest and amiable.
"Lin Niangzi". Mother Yang saw someone coming, turned her head to say hello, and continued: "Thanks to you for taking it in yesterday, otherwise we, orphans and widows, really don't know what to do."
Lin Niangzi should have few opportunities to contact outsiders, and she was a little restrained when she spoke, especially for Yang's mother's thanks, and the plateau red on her face was even more red.
