Chapter 32: The Abyss
Although she didn't want to mention Gong Jueyi and didn't want her to help, but she didn't want to involve these men who were willing to work for her, Gong Jueyi left an address that said that he could be found in the capital before leaving, and the second girl handed it to Mama Feng.
After speaking, let Lu He go down the mountain first, and told him to pay attention to concealment, after all, if something happens in the mountains, I am afraid that no one will care about how you died at this juncture.
The figures of Lu and several people disappeared into the woods, and Erya was also ready to act.
"Miss, you are a weak woman to go up, in case something happens, how to deal with it, the slave will go up with you, and there will be a response." Lu Yong couldn't bear to let a girl's family be in danger alone, so he said after thinking about it again and again.
"I understand your kindness, but this road is not easy to walk, my body is lighter and easier, you are willing to put life and death on my line, and I don't want to burden you."
Erya's tone was resolute, and after speaking, she rubbed her legs and stomach, took a deep breath and began to climb the slope.
As soon as her hand touched the moss on the surface of the hillside, Erya couldn't stop beating a drum in her heart. The five fingers were clutched into the soft soil, and something seemed to be squirming under the abdomen of the fingers, and a wet and sticky nausea made people uncomfortable.
Although Erya is very petite compared to the big men, she is also the tallest among the women, she is a little worried that the soil is unstable, she can't bear the weight when she catches it, and it will be over if she slides down the mountain.
Looking at a girl hanging on the steep slope of the cliff, the people waiting below couldn't help but sweat.
"Ahh With a scream, several people were shocked, and their hearts were raised to their throats.
The place where Erya originally grabbed it, the mountain skin peeled off and fell up and down, she glanced at it and quickly put her hand on the other hand, immediately grabbed another point of strength, and looked back, the abyss under her feet, and one was accidentally shattered.
It took a long time for the hillside to fall before it made a loud bang in the upper and lower streams. Voices echoed through the valley.
Not daring to look any further, Erya kicked the mountain with her toes and climbed up hard.
Lu Yong and the others gradually lost sight of Erya's figure, rested in place, and prayed that the young lady could come back safely.
Although the soreness and exhaustion of her body made Erya feel that she couldn't hold on anymore, but the brighter and brighter colored stone in her neck told her that she must not give up, and Ling'er must be waiting for her to save her.
In Lin'an City, the government began to set up porridge sheds to relieve the victims, and the embankment began to be repaired.
At the door of the Lu Mansion, a man with dirty clothes that couldn't see the color banged on the door vigorously.
Qian Fu glanced through the crack in the door and saw that this person ignored it.
After a while, the knock on the door sounded rhythmically, Qian Fujian was still the same man, and there was no one else around, only a few homeless people squatting on the side of the road.
"Who are you, and what are you doing knocking on the door?" Qian Fu asked tentatively.
"I'm from Anbei Town, I'm the shopkeeper of Fuxing Building, and Miss Lu wrote to me to come here."
Qian Fu didn't know whether it was true or not, and thought for a while: "You wait here first, I'll ask."
Qian Fu hurried to the backyard, Miss was not in the house, and Mama Feng was in charge of everything.
Mama Feng is making autumn clothes for the ladies in Tonghua Courtyard and Agarwood, these are prepared before, in the princess's mansion, Mama Feng doesn't do this, but Mama Feng used to be picked out for the princess in the palace, and the embroidery work is good, but no one knows.
The delicate orchids bloom lightly on the light purple brocade, a few white butterflies are vivid, and a picture of a spirit butterfly playing flowers seems to be in front of you, Agarwood can't help but be stunned, and looks at Mama Feng with envy and admiration, "When will Mama teach agarwood, if agarwood can learn this unique skill, it will die without regrets!" ”
Listening to the funny words of agarwood, Mama Feng smiled, but she was thinking about how the young lady would come at this time.
Qian Fu painted the boat and came to the backyard, limping to Tonghua Courtyard, the courtyard door was open, and Mama Feng and Agarwood were sitting under the eaves.
"Mama Feng, Mama Feng!" Qian Fu called Mama Feng, who bowed her head, she looked up and saw that it was Qian Fu, and asked, "What's the matter in the front yard, you came here in such a hurry?"
Qian Fu nodded, "There is a person who claims to be the shopkeeper of Fuxing Building in Anbei Town outside the door, saying that the young lady wrote to him to come, I don't know if what he said is true, and he is still locked out of the door at this time." ”
When Mama Feng heard this, the young lady had explained this matter before, "You let Lu Zhong go and have a look, in case it is a fraud by the homeless people, close the door quickly!" ”
Qian Fu answered.
Lu Zhong followed behind Qian Fu and cautiously opened the door, and the middle-aged man outside the door grinned, "I want to meet Miss Lu, I don't know ......"
Seeing that he spoke politely, several people already believed it in their hearts.
After opening the door to let him in, the door returned to its closed state.
"You said that Miss Lu asked you to come, but what proof do you have?" Lu Zhong looked at the middle-aged man and said.
"I have a letter from Miss Lu, and ......" He glanced at the old man and Lu Zhong in front of him, and did not continue.
"Okay, you come with me to the backyard." Lu Zhong took the middle-aged man to the backyard, and Qian Fu continued to look at the gate.
The shopkeeper of Fuxing House surnamed Luo, half a month ago received a letter from the owner Miss Lu and rushed to Lin'an, who knew that halfway through the road, the flood was flooded, and the displaced people were everywhere, he was only glad that he left Anbei Town early, and was not drowned by the flood.
However, with a large number of silver tickets, he did not dare to appear at the land gate surrounded by homeless people, so he dragged it until now.
When Mama Feng saw someone coming, she looked at the person with a cold face.
"You said that the young lady asked you to come, do you have a certificate?" Mama Feng took the lead.
Shopkeeper Luo is a businessman, and he has rarely seen such a fierce woman. Hurriedly took out an oil-paper envelope from his arms, "Here is a handwritten letter written by Miss." ”
Agarwood took the envelope and handed it to Mama Feng. Mama Feng looked at it carefully, and it was indeed Miss's handwriting.
Let him stay in the front yard guest room first.
"Big brother, Miss hasn't come back for so long, something should have happened!" Seeing that it was not early, a man spoke.
"Don't talk nonsense, wait." After Lu Yong finished speaking, he also glanced at the sky, it should be the end of Shen Shi, the dark clouds have converged to the center of the sky, and it seems that it will rain again in a short time.
After Erya climbed up, she suddenly fell to the ground, took a few deep breaths, only felt a tightness in her chest, and held an iron rod in her hand to get up.
A different scene appears in front of me than the one below. The half-human-tall grass was mixed with lush vines, and the vines continued to grow forward, with no end in sight.
Now at the intersection of summer and autumn, snakes and insects are very active, and Erya feels numb on her scalp every time she steps on it, but Caishi tells her that Ling'er is around here.
The long pain is not as good as the short pain, Er Ya simply ran forward quickly, and soon walked out of the grass, the trees here did not seem to be affected by the flood, they grew surprisingly well, the forest was dense, and Er Ya was wondering whether to go in, when he suddenly heard movement in the grass.
"Whew, whew, whew." In this uninhabited place, the sound of panting deep in the grass was exceptionally clear.
"Who? Who's there? The second girl took the iron rod and approached the place where the voice came from, and pushed through the dense grass, getting closer and closer...... Getting closer, "Ling'er! ”
Erya saw that Ling'er was tied up, her mouth was gagged, and she was desperately trying to struggle away.
Quickly untied the rope for Ling'er, and the second girl didn't have time to check Ling'er's situation, so she pulled her behind her, pointed to the front with an iron rod, and turned around vigilantly to make sure that there was no danger for the time being.
She ran in the direction of Ling'er, no matter what she stepped on, she didn't stop, Ling'er tripped over the vines on the ground, Er Ya pulled her up, and suddenly had an idea, pulling the rattan on the ground hard.
These vines, which have grown for some years, are very strong, and it will be much easier to hold on to this. Ling'er was already scared stupid, and when she saw that her sister was struggling to pull the vines, the little man wiped a handful of tears and went to help.
Er Ya tied a vine to her body, and took another one to tie to Ling'er, she first glanced at the place where she landed, and climbed the edge of the wall to retreat.
"Ling'er, come here, don't be afraid, go down, my sister will help you." Erya called Ling'er, glanced at the abyss below, tears overflowed again, but she also obediently walked to Erya, my sister is here, she will definitely not fall.
At this moment, there was a sound of swishing in the depths of the grass, as if something was coming quickly through the grass.
Ling'er learned from the second and retreated, "Do you want to leave when you come?" Didn't I work in vain! ”
