Chapter 111: Rushing to the Border (1)
After Qiu Yu walked less than half the distance, his clothes, shoes and socks were already soaked with sweat, his hands and feet were trembling, and his waist was straight against the cliff.
Qiu Yu followed closely behind the old brother who was driving the car, he didn't dare to walk too slowly, for fear of being left behind, and he didn't dare to go too fast, for fear that if he didn't take the right step, he would fall off the cliff, at this time in his eyes, he only saw a cloud in front of him, and the rocks under his feet could be vaguely seen below.
At this time, not far in front of Qiu Yu, he heard another hoarse shout, and as the sound slowly fell under the cliff, Qiu Yu closed his eyes in fright, and a cold sweat broke out on his body.
The old brother who was driving the car looked back at Qiu Yu, comforted his injured heart and said, "Little brother, don't be nervous, let alone be afraid, the person who fell just now is unlucky, stepping on a pumice stone, you remember that every foot must be stepped on, and then walk the other foot." ”
"Brother, I remember, I will definitely be careful. Qiu Yu slowly opened his eyes, his legs were still trembling, the beads of sweat on his head were dripping, even his palms were sweaty, he rubbed his hands on his clothes, and had the courage to move forward slowly.
Just when Qiu Yu had the courage to walk forward, another scream was heard behind him, and another person fell off the cliff.
At this time, the person walking behind the person who fell, after seeing the person in front of him fall, he was so frightened that he covered his chest with his hands, his legs kept trembling, his eyes were straight, and he cried out directly, shouting, "I'm not going, I don't want to die yet, who can save me." ”
After hearing this, Qiu Yu turned his head to look at him, and comforted him kindly, "Don't be afraid, as long as you are careful, we will definitely pass, you follow me, don't you see that the people in front of us have already passed?"
Qiu Yu was also frightened suddenly, seeing them fall one after another, it was also a torment in his heart, but he still didn't forget to turn around and comfort him, "Brother, hold on, and then you will reach a flat place." ”
Although Qiu Yu said this, in fact, he himself had no bottom in his heart, he heard the old brother who drove the car say that the cliff road would have to walk ten miles, and now this situation is that he wants to turn back, and he has no chance, so he can only bite the bullet and go up.
At this time, they all made up their minds, and after walking forward for a while, Qiu Yu saw a wooden plank two meters long and one foot wide appear under his feet.
Qiu Yu heard the old brother who drove the car say that there is no road in some places on this cliff road, so it can only be built with a wooden plank, but he didn't expect to encounter it so soon.
Qiu Yu followed closely behind the old brother who was driving the car, and watched the old brother in front of him step on the trembling plank and walk over quite smoothly, but it looked terrifying, and he didn't have so much confidence that he could be as stable as the old brother.
He held the cliff with both hands, and walked slowly towards the plank, and as soon as one of his feet landed on the plank, he felt his foot trembling so much, and he could no longer tell whether the plank was shaking or his legs were trembling.
When Qiu Yu stepped on the plank with both feet, he found that he was trembling even more, he was so frightened that his legs were bent, his body was clinging to the cliff wall, and his head was cold, soaking his clothes.
He clasped the mountain stone with both hands, and did not dare to relax, although he knew that if he really fell, the mountain stone in his hand would not play any role at all, but he could hold the mountain stone, and his heart could finally be more stable.
Qiu Yu slowly moved his steps, one step, two steps, three steps, two meters long plank, he walked a total of eight steps to the other end of the plank, when his feet fell on the rock at the other end, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and settled down.
When Qiu Yu was glad that he had walked over, the moment the person behind him stepped on the plank, the plank suddenly flipped on its side, and he only heard an "ah" sound, and the person behind him, along with the plank he was stepping on, fell in front of his eyes.
Qiu Yu was so frightened that his mouth opened, he stopped in mid-air and couldn't close, he was stunned there, time seemed to stand still at this moment, until a cold wind blew away, Qiu Yu slowly woke up.
The old brother who was driving the car looked back and saw Qiu Yu stunned, and shouted helplessly, "Look at what, hurry up and keep up, if you don't keep up, you will be left behind." ”
Qiu Yu reacted when he heard the shouts of the old man who was driving the car, he calmed himself down first, touched his heart, and tried not to think about the situation where the person behind him fell just now, he looked at the old brother who was driving the car.
"Dude, the guy behind me fell along with the plank. ”
After hearing this, the old brother who was driving the car looked behind Qiu Yu with his feet, and he shook his head helplessly, "Little brother, don't worry about it, it's all dead, it's useless to say it, go to the battlefield, you have to die every day, you will know it after you have more experience in the future, just get used to it." “
"Who's going to be carrying the plank? The old man who was driving the car looked at the person behind him and shouted.
"I have it, you go on, I'll put the plank back on. Someone in the back responded loudly, and after the old brother who was driving the car heard it, he continued to walk forward with peace of mind.
After Qiu Yu saw the old brother who was driving the car and continued to walk, he hurried to follow, he didn't know how long it was, and he didn't know how much he sweated, he just felt that the time had passed long and difficult, and when he finally walked over the cliff, his whole body was wet, and he was shivering with cold when the wind blew.
When all the people had crossed the cliff, the Commander ordered everyone to gather their teams, sit in place and rest for a while, and check the number of casualties by the way, and when they counted the number of people, they found that almost a third of them had fallen off the cliff.
After the commander had counted the number of people, he had given them a rest for another hour, and then ordered the troops to continue their journey, all of whom had just gone through the test of life and death, and they were still in shock, so they had to support their tired bodies and continue to walk in the direction of the border.
Before they had gone far, the sky began to rain heavily, and this heavy rain made the walking of the tired soldiers even worse, and they walked in the rain as if they were carrying dozens of pounds of things.
