Chapter 277: The Most Dangerous Time
When it comes to the wild boar's nest, many people exclaim: "How can you climb such a high mountain?" Who has the guts, when did they climb up, what are they doing there, not afraid of being gnawed by wild boars? ”
Aunt Ding's father was sure to say: "It will not be from Moon Fort, to get there from the village, you have to go through the Grand Canyon, go down to the canyon land, and then climb the mountain, at least two hours." You don't dare to go alone, and if you want to go, you have to go in groups. ”
In order to be cautious, he arranged for two young people to quickly go door to door to check if anyone had gone out during the day and had not returned.
Xing Yi noticed the position of the three fires, which were obviously placed in a triangle. According to common sense, it is not a problem to make a fire in the wild, chaotic and irregular, but if there is a triangle of standard rules, it is a dangerous situation.
Xing Yi told everyone: "There must be someone trapped there, and in case of an emergency, this is sending a signal for help outside." ”
For a while, everyone talked about it.
"A distress signal? Who would understand this, according to you, it is certainly not a local. ”
"What are you asking for? Maybe it's to burn a fire to bake and cook something to eat, or to barbecue some wild things. ”
"Whether it's a person or not, how many are there, who can be sure?"
"People are in the middle, and there are three fires burning around them, and people are in it, and they are not cold at all, and they can sleep peacefully."
"Needless to say, it's a local, and you can't find your way back?"
"Outsiders, if it's just one person, it's dangerous, and in the second half of the night, the wild boar comes out, and what do you see."
Aunt Nadine didn't speak, but kept looking there.
Xing Yi waited for him to think for a while, heard a rough breath, and guessed that he was worried, so he took the initiative to find two bold and careful young men in the village who were strong and strong, and went up with him to have a look.
Aunt Ding said: "The road is too far, in the middle of the night, and the road is all ditches, the canyon is not easy to walk at all, the water is fast and cold, and you have to climb the big slope, I'm afraid you can't stand it." ”
Xing Yi said: "I'm young, my body is good, walking at night, crossing the ditch should not be a problem, I haven't been to the canyon, I should experience it." ”
"Really worried about the people up there?"
"Everyone is right, it is definitely not a local, outsiders are in danger, more terrifying than locals, at this time, it is time for our locals to come forward to help."
The two young men who had gone to inquire came back and reported to Aunt Ding's father that there was no such situation to be inquired about.
Aunt Ding asked them, "Would you like to go up the mountain to have a look?" ”
Both guys were startled and took a few steps back.
Aunt Ding said, "What's the matter? Just ask such a sentence, are you sloppy? It's better to be an outsider, see someone on the mountain asking for help, people take the initiative to stand up, look at others, think about themselves, and are not afraid of being ridiculed by others? ”
Two young men stood still, looked up at the mountain, and one said, "It will take at least three or five people to dare to go." ”
"Listen, and me, a guest from the city."
The young man said, "All right, let's go too." ”
"This is our boy from Moon Castle."
Another man in his thirties came up and said, "I'm one, I went to the canyon the other day and know how shallow that section is." ”
"That's great."
The five men gathered together, made their preparations, took their ropes, their scythes, their scythes, and their water, and their dry provisions, and set out.
Twenty minutes to the Grand Canyon, down to the bottom of the valley, still twenty minutes.
Aunt Ding's father told Xing Yi: "This is Tiger Leaping Gorge." ”
Xing Yi raised his head and looked up, the outline of the mountain cliff was very blurred, and he could only rely on the sparse starlight to discern the narrow sky above his head.
The cold wind gusted in the night of the canyon, blowing and making the body tremble, Xing Yi wrapped his clothes tightly and asked: "Is there a second canyon with this name, is there a second one in Jinxiu County?" ”
The eldest aunt fought tooth wars and said, "As far as I know, there is no second. ”
Why did Xing Yi ask this? Because in the previous life, the year my son graduated from junior high school, there was a highway in the county, with six lanes in both directions, and the speed could reach 120 kilometers per hour, from south to north, through the border of Jinxiu County for 80 kilometers. The highway is connected by four large and small bridges, the most famous of which is a large cable-stayed bridge, which crosses over the Tiger Leaping Gorge, so the name of the bridge is also called the Tiger Leaping Narrow Bridge. In this way, the location of the bridge is here.
At the opening ceremony of the cable-stayed bridge, the person in charge of the prefabrication yard followed General Manager Sun to participate. After he went back, he explained to everyone, the car drove to the middle of the bridge and stopped, the person opened the door and stood out, condescending, the wind was whistling in his ears, it was shocking, he was shocked by the formation, he looked down at the canyon under his feet, people were like ants, it was amazing. At that time, General Manager Sun was so excited and panicked that he couldn't hold his mobile phone firmly and fell to the bridge deck.
The goal pursued by General Manager Sun all his life is to enable Hongda Company to participate in the construction of such a world-class bridge and leave traces of his labor on the project. It's a pity that although he has been striving for it and has made a lot of efforts, his sincere pursuit and good wishes have never been realized.
The construction of the highway connection bridge took a year and a half.
This year, my son graduated from elementary school, that is, in another year and a half, the construction of the bridge began. This point in time is long and long, there are still more than 540 days, and it is short and short, and it will come with a few blinks of eyelids.
How much can you do in three years, and how close can you get to the bridge? Xing Yi is starting to think about it now, and he still doesn't know when the project will be approved. Take the initiative to find out the relationship in the province and see if you can find out any relevant news?
If you start preparing now, even if you can send a car of sand and gravel to the bridge and tie steel bars for a day in the end, it will be a very happy thing.
Know the progress in advance, prepare everything in advance, and God will always give you some favor.
The water in the canyon is waist-deep enough for people to wade through, but the current is so fast that if you don't pay attention, you can be washed down.
All five of them were tied with ropes around their waists, and they were implicated in each other, and if one of them accidentally stepped on the sidetrack, the other four stood still, so that they could trip him and pull him back into the group.
The cold wind was blowing, and everyone was shivering. Wading through the current, climbing up the slope for a full hour. It was already late at night, in order not to take a detour, Aunt Ding chose a high point, stood high, and looked back, he meant to determine the direction of the target by looking back at the direction of the Moon Fort. But because it was dark in the distance, he couldn't see anything, and sighed that the village should have installed street lights a long time ago.
However, Xing Yi had a compass in his mobile phone, leaned on the flashlight light, opened it and pulled it a few times, flattened it, turned his body one hundred and eighty degrees, the direction was calibrated, climbed a hundred meters, and finally saw the three fires, and a little closer, three figures appeared in the gap between the fires.
It was already two o'clock in the morning.
Seeing them, the three of them struggled to get up, walked a few steps, and squatted down again, exhausted, and with hunger, it was indeed the most dangerous time.
