The sun was gradually rising, and under the sun, Ling Tao and the others were all sweating profusely.

For more than two hours, Zhang Guohua kept weaving ropes, silently, only listening to the rustling of grass blades, the ropes continued to extend, and finally weaved into two straw ropes that were a little thicker than his thumb and forty or fifty meters long.

After more than two hours of continuous weaving, and under the sun, Zhang Guohua was also sweating profusely, and the palms of his calloused hands were also rubbed red, and even blistered.

Zhang Guohua, a simple little person, may not have much ambition in his heart, and may do crazy things because of a momentary temptation, but he came out of the countryside, his heart is simple and kind, when the living dead came last night, Ling Tao untied him who was tied up, and gave him food this morning, which made this simple peasant man grateful.

There is no verbal thanks, he uses his actual actions to repay, simple heart, always feel that why bother so much about what he can do?

There may be no shortage of small people with small bellies, but most of them are simple and kind, at least, the honest-looking Zhang Guohua.

Two forty or fifty-meter-long straw ropes, under Zhang Guohua's second weaving, have become a straw rope about forty meters long and the thickness of the child's arm.

"It's finally done", tying a knot at the end of the end, Zhang Guohua wiped the sweat on his head and smiled.

"Brother Zhang, hard work", Ling Tao said sincerely, a straw rope of about forty meters was completely made by him, without the slightest complaint, and he said in his heart that it was fake if he was not moved.

"It's all a trivial matter, let's go down the mountain first," Zhang Guohua said with a simple smile.

A straw rope, although it is woven with grass, but the weight is not light, because the grass blades contain water, woven into a rope structure tightly, thirty or forty meters long is afraid of fifty or sixty catties, two people carried to the edge of the cliff.

Tie one end to the railroad and secure it, and throw the other end off the cliff and hang down to the ground with one section left.

"Who comes first"? Ling Tao stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at them and asked.

Wang Jun stood up and said: "I'll come first, go down first, and if there is any danger, it can be solved in advance."

The reason why he is so active is because Zhang Guohua was busy working alone before, but they couldn't help, he himself was a little embarrassed, as for the danger or something, the situation below is clear at a glance, what danger can be.

"It's okay, you be careful", Ling Tao thought about it and nodded.

Smiling confidently, Wang Jun walked to the edge of the cliff, grabbed the straw rope with both hands, faced the cliff, and slowly walked down the grass rope.

Ling Tao stood on the side and watched nervously, although he had actually used it before, but after all, the straw rope was the first time to use, and he was still a little uneasy in his heart, what if it broke?

Fortunately, Wang Jun arrived at the bottom of the cliff a few minutes later, and loudly reminded that there was no problem.

"Who's coming first"? The straw rope is strong, there is no problem at all, after Wang Jun is finished, Ling Tao looked at the others and asked.

"I ...... I'll come", Lu Jiang said, a little embarrassed, he hadn't done anything all this time, and he didn't have a strong sense of existence in the group.

"Well, be careful," Ling Tao said with a nod.

In any case, there were only six of them present, and there was a long way to go, and no one knew who would help whom in the end.

Lu Jiang went down, followed by Yu Miaomiao, and then Jiang Feifei.

Yu Miaomiao went down very smoothly, and when she arrived at Jiang Feifei, this eldest lady with fine skin and tender flesh almost fell halfway, and screamed in fright, don't look at the simplicity of going down the mountain, but it is also a hard work, a control zhì is not good, her hand will be shattered if she slips, others take two or three minutes, she took more than ten minutes to go down, and after going down, she suddenly collapsed on the ground.

In the end, only Ling Tao and Zhang Guohua were left on the cliff.

"Brother Zhang, you come first, I'll go down later", Ling Tao looked at the other party and said.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Guohua shook his head and said: "Brother Ling Tao, I said sorry for last night's incident, I was originally going to go to H province to work by train, and I have a younger brother at home who is sick and needs money urgently, so I was dizzy when I heard Deng Feng's remuneration of 10 million, I'm sorry ......."

"It's okay, Brother Zhang, it's all over, I can understand your feelings, let's go down first, there will be hope when you get to H Province", Ling Tao smiled and said, a trace of unhappiness last night completely disappeared in his heart.

"No, Brother Ling Tao, you go down first, I'll be there later", Zhang Guohua stubbornly shook his head and said.

After thinking about it, Ling Tao nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll wait for you below."

As he spoke, Ling Tao grabbed the straw rope, his footsteps were suspended in the air, and he prepared to go down.

"Wait, Brother Ling Tao......", at this time, Zhang Guohua stopped Ling Tao.

"Is there anything wrong with Brother Zhang"? Ling Tao stopped and asked.

His face changed, Zhang Guohua looked around, and said with some sternness: "Brother Ling Tao, you are from the city, and you didn't pay attention to some things, but I found that something was wrong around me."

Ling Tao frowned, stood up and asked, "Brother Zhang thinks something is wrong?"

Zhang Guohua stretched out his hand and pointed around and said: "Brother Ling Tao, you look around, it's autumn now, but you see, the surrounding plants are revealing new shoots, and you look over there, there are actually plants blooming, this is autumn, it's too abnormal, as far as I know, this season, except for a few flowers such as chrysanthemums and osmanthus, other plants should not bloom, but the surrounding plants not only reveal new shoots, but also bloom, do you think this is normal?"

Ling Tao opened his mouth and looked around, it was really like this, he had lived in the city since he was a child, and there were not many opportunities to contact this kind of wilderness, Ling Tao really hadn't noticed these details before, listening to him say this, Ling Tao only then discovered the changes around him.

"Moreover, when I was mowing the grass just now, I didn't find any traces of small insects in the grass, not even ants, it is impossible for there to be no small insects in the wilderness, and even, even if we hear the sound of birdsong, we only hear its sound and do not see its appearance, which is not normal at all", without waiting for Ling Tao to speak, Zhang Guohua said again.

"Brother Zhang, what do you want to say"? Ling Tao's heart sank slightly, and he asked.

Shaking his head, Zhang Guohua looked at Ling Tao and said: "Brother Ling Tao, there is a saying in our countryside, there is a saying in our countryside, fierce beasts are infested, mosquitoes are nowhere to be found, I don't understand the plants growing around, but the surrounding silence, I guess, in this surrounding, I am afraid that there are some terrifying beasts, which can scare insects and dare not appear, birds dare not approach, it must be an extremely dangerous thing, maybe I think too much, but, when you go down, you must be careful."

My heart tightened, I don't know why, after hearing Zhang Guohua's words, the hairs on Ling Tao's body subconsciously stood up.

"I know, Brother Zhang, you should be careful, let's go down first, it should be safe on the opposite railway", Ling Tao subconsciously swallowed his saliva and said.

I didn't think anything about it before, but Zhang Guohua's words made Ling Tao vigilant in his heart, there must be demons when things go wrong, and the surrounding situation will not be like this for no reason.

"Well, you go down first, and I'll come later," Zhang Guohua said with a smile.

Subconsciously looked around, and after Zhang Guohua reminded him, Ling Tao suddenly felt as if there was something staring at him in a corner he didn't know.

Take a deep breath, grasp the straw rope with both hands, step on the cliff with both feet in the air, slowly release the rope, Ling Tao slowly descended.

Although the cliffs are steep, there are many places to stay, but some low-growing plants are a big obstacle.

The surface of the straw rope is rough, and Ling Tao still has gloves on his hands, but it will not slip and wear out his palms or something.

Halfway down, a foul smell hit, almost making Ling Tao vomit out, not far from the side, a corpse hung halfway up the mountain, the stench was emitted from the corpse, the strange thing is that there are no mosquitoes flying on the corpse.

"Plants spit out new shoots and bloom, I'm afraid it's because of the X virus, which can promote the growth and mutation of all things, but there are no birds, beasts and insects around, is it possible that there are really fierce beasts lurking in this area?" Don't look at the disgusting corpse, Ling Tao thought in his heart.

The reason why I think this way is because I have doubts in my heart, and second, I want to divert my attention from looking at the disgusting corpse.

Fortunately, the descent of the mountain was quite smooth, until it went down to the bottom, and there were no accidents when they met Wang Jun, Jiang Feifei and Yu Miaomiao and the two girls went down, and Ling Tao would not even be inferior to them.

"Brother Zhang, I'm in the end, it's your turn", standing on the stone pile below, Ling Tao shouted at the top.

"I'll be right away," Zhang Guohua's voice came from above.

But the next moment, what Ling Tao didn't understand at all was that Zhang Guohua, who was above, untied the straw rope tied to the railway and threw ......it down.

"Brother Zhang, what are you doing? Come down quickly", Ling Tao was shocked in his heart, and said loudly, he didn't understand Zhang Guohua's approach at all, didn't he want to come down? Or is something else going on?

They are clearly overthinking.

Zhang Guohua did not speak, and under Ling Tao's surprised gaze, he climbed down the cliff with his bare hands, although it was not as smooth as walking on the ground, but it was extremely smooth.

Until he stood beside him, Ling Tao and the others were still a little unable to react.

"Hehe, I have lived in the countryside since I was a child, and I am used to going up and down the hill, this rope may still be used later, so I will drop it", Zhang Guohua looked at Ling Tao and the others and said with a simple smile.

"Thank you", Ling Tao nodded, and finally only said these two words.

Zhang Guohua could have come down without anything, but in order to take care of them, he was busy weaving a straw rope for several hours, and his hands were blistered, and he said in his heart that it was fake if he was not moved.

Who says everyone in this world is selfish? That's because many people haven't met simple and kind people......!

(There are too many novels that blindly compete for hegemony and upgrade bloody possession, and Stone always wants to write something different, a little more practical, a little more human, and a little more 'real', but it seems a little slow-paced, and the mood is very apprehensive, really worried, after all, there are not many of this genre, right?) I don't know how many people can calm down and get used to the fast pace, can you slow down and be 'real'? Finally, ask for a recommended collection)
