Chapter 3 The Girl Child

A quarter of an hour later, Yuan Yi ran to the chain bridge.

Although he had seen this scene from a distance before due to the great improvement in his eyesight, when he arrived here, seeing the scene in front of him and listening to the deafening sound of water, Yuan Yi was still secretly frightened.

I saw that in the continuous sound of the river waves, a river that did not know where it came from and where it flowed, rolled and flowed along the east-west ravine area. Among them, between the water waves, splash up the waves, its small one is only the thickness of the bowl mouth, the river water fluctuates, it is fleeting, the big one is several zhang, the form is dynamic and colorful, under the river water beating, some even jump several zhang at once, so that its water vapor splashes the iron chain bridge above the river center.

There are three iron cables on the bridge, each of which is about 30 zhang, and they are all rusty, as if they have experienced many years. The top two are slightly parallel to the river and are separated by more than three feet from the bottom cable. The waves splashed on it, shaking the soft chains to make it make a "dang dang" sound. If you are not careful, you will fall into the heart of the river and be buried in the belly of the fish!

Yuan Yi looked at such a sinister situation, his brows furrowed tightly, and he secretly thought about a good way to cross the river.

He suddenly looked forward, and saw that on the chain bridge, a few feet away, the figure he had seen before was carefully climbing the chain.

Judging from the back, the figure is a girl in her teens.

She was dressed in purple, with iron chains on her feet, and a circle of green rattan was tied around her waist, and the two ends of the green rattan were connected to two iron chains more than three feet high, and two big rattan rings were tied on them to prevent her from accidentally falling into the heart of the river.

"Good idea!" Yuan Yi saw this, and couldn't help but praise secretly.

So he turned around and searched the surroundings for a mountain vine, and in a short time he found a large section in a nearby valley, and after dealing with it, he learned the girl's way, tied it around his waist, and attached two iron cables, and prepared to cross the river according to it.

......

Suddenly, a miserable cry came from a distance, the voice was extremely crisp, Yuan Yi was shocked, and hurriedly followed the reputation.

I saw a few zhang away, the rattan rope on the left side of the girl suddenly broke for some reason, and then, the soles of her feet were unstable, and she suddenly fell to the right, but fortunately, the rattan ring tied to the iron rope on the right and the rattan ring around her waist were not broken, so that she was able to get rid of the bad luck of dying in the heart of the river, and that scream was made when she fell just now.

However, even so, her condition at this time is not necessarily much better!

But seeing his petite body hanging by the green vine in the heart of the river, the splashing waves and the blowing river breeze were floating leisurely left and right, which made his plan to climb the vine with both hands add great resistance, making it extremely difficult for him to save himself.

Seeing the shocking scene in front of him, Yuan Yi's heart suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly checked the vine rope again to prevent repeating the girl's mistake.

When he saw that there was no problem, he got up and walked along the chain, and after half an hour, he came to the place where the girl had fallen.

At this time, the girl was still struggling for her life under the iron rope, but she had not yet been able to climb the vine.

When she heard someone approaching, she hurriedly fixed her eyes and met Yuan Yi's gaze!

I saw her grasping the green vine with both hands, and when she took a closer look, she had climbed a short distance, but her whole person was like a swing in the wind and waves, and her delicate body wrapped in wet clothes trembled slightly, her face was pale and abnormal, and her fearful and desperate eyes showed hope while seeing Yuan Yi.

Seeing the girl's pitiful expression, Yuan Yi sighed softly, and after a little thought, he planned to lend a helping hand to the girl who was struggling for her life in the wind and waves.

After all, the current Yuan Yi can't be saved when he dies!

When he was ready, he grabbed the iron chain on his left side with one hand, and the unbroken vine rope with the other.

At this moment, in the heart of the river, a shocking change protruded!

A large wave of river waves suddenly hit from the topstream, and the three iron chains immediately shook for a while, and the soles of his feet staggered, almost falling. At the same time, his right hand sank suddenly, his upper body bowed involuntarily, and the burden behind him suddenly fell to the bottom of the river, and then gradually disappeared in the surging waves.

In a panic, he hurriedly explored the cause, and looked down, but it was the other end of the vine rope, and the girl was attacked by the river waves, and her little hand was also unstable, and her body slid down. The force of his body sliding down made Qingteng overstressed for a while, and then a certain section in the middle made a "click" sound, and suddenly, Qingteng looked like it could break at any time.

All of a sudden, the girl's situation became precarious!

Yuan Yi sweated all over his body, and in fear, he used his strength cautiously to prevent carelessness and aggravate the fracture of the vine cord.

However, this time, there is no danger.

In the blink of an eye, he lifted the bloodless girl up and completely freed her from the danger of being buried in the heart of the river.

As soon as the girl came out of danger, she grabbed Yuan Yi with one hand and the iron rope with the other, and then said tremblingly and indistinctly: "Many... Many... Thank you!"

Yuan Yi didn't have time to pay attention to the girl at this time, and only said "Don't talk yet", while caressing the "bang" pounding heart with one hand, while trying to soothe the body that was trembling from nervousness before.

After a while, he took a deep breath and slowly straightened up, and at the same time, on the other side, the girl finally came to her senses.

"If it's okay, let's discuss how to get over, shall we?" said Yuan Yi.

"Good!" the girl replied crisply.

Subsequently, the two discussed for a while and agreed on a solution.

Then, the two held each other with one hand and grasped the iron rope with the other, the girl was in front, Yuan Yi was behind, one step at a time, and carefully walked forward on the bridge!

Finally, a quarter of an hour later, they reached the end of the chain bridge.

......

As soon as Fang saw the other side, the girl cheered, broke free of Yuan Yi's hand, jumped down.

Suddenly, an "oops" sound came, Yuan Yi hurriedly looked, only to see the girl squatting on the ground, holding her left foot with one hand, he checked carefully, but it was because she jumped down and just stepped on a sharp stone, so that she sprained her foot.

Seeing this, Yuan Yi said, "Huh, you twisted your foot?"

As he spoke, he stepped forward to help.

However, the girl waved her hand and said with a stubborn face: "This time I will come by myself." ”

Then he rubbed his little twisted feet with both hands.

Yuan Yi was not reluctant, found a stone not far away and sat down, waiting for the girl's injured leg to recover.

At this time, he had time to look at the girl's true face.

I saw her round face, smart eyes, two pigtails hanging down her shoulders, and a purple shirt wrapped in a body, showing her delicate body. At this moment, she was sitting on the stone floor, her hands moving repeatedly, her eyebrows slightly raised, and her face was full of pain, looking like I was pitiful.

At this moment, a "hiss" sound came!

Yuan Yi heard the sound, hurriedly withdrew his gaze from the girl, frowned, and wondered: "What sound?"

"What?" said the girl, who immediately raised her head, and looked at the sound with the same doubt.

Suddenly, her pupils suddenly dilated, her face showed a look of horror, and at the same time, her right hand pointed to Yuan Yi's back, and her voice trembled slightly: "Snake!

Before he could say anything, Yuan Yi had already turned around.

At this moment, his heart seemed to stop beating, and drops of cold sweat kept bursting out, instantly soaking through his clothes.

But I saw that a few feet away from Yuan Yi's left shoulder, a big snake as black as ink was screaming with its head held high.

The body of the black snake does not know how long it is, but it is half a foot thick, and there are seven blood-colored spots on the forehead like flowers, which are distributed in an arc on the two thin eyes, and there is a fierce light in its eyes, and the red letter in its mouth is swallowed from time to time, making a "hissing" sound, and it looks like choosing people to devour!

At this moment, Yuan Yi instinctively clenched his fist and punched out in the direction of the snake's head.

Immediately afterward, he did not have time to check the results, and hurriedly got up, about to choose a way to escape.

However, at this moment, the girl screamed miserably, but when she had not healed her injured leg and struggled to get up, she fell to the ground again.

Yuan Yi turned around when he heard the sound, hurriedly took a few steps back, and picked up the girl on the ground, and was about to run away along the road.

At this time, the wind behind him suddenly rose, accompanied by a "hiss" sound, and a strange and pungent smell, a black shadow suddenly rushed over, Yuan Yi did not have time to review, in a panic to go forward with all his strength, avoiding the black snake blow, he quickly glanced around, and after seeing the road up the mountain, he hurriedly stepped up, and in the sound of the whirring wind, he hugged the girl and ran away.

In a short time, Yuan Yi sprinted to the peak of the fourth peak and completely escaped the danger of the evil snake.

Halfway up the mountain, he finally met the other children, but he paid no heed, and kept running forward under their horrified gaze until he reached the summit.

He panted slightly, swept his surroundings, and saw a dozen children resting scattered on several acres of grass, all of them with hungry and desperate expressions.

Obviously, at this moment when the sun is about to set, with their state, the possibility of passing the assessment is very small.

Yuan Yi was a little scared, but he was not as desperate as they were.

He found a no-man's corner, and after a closer look, he made sure that there was no danger, and finally relented.

After all, after experiencing the two terrifying changes of the iron rope and the black snake, he had to be more careful in order to prevent accidental changes from reappearing.

Yuan Yi gently put the girl down, and then the two sat opposite each other on the grass, and after going through hardships together, the two were also familiar with each other. So, when they were resting and bored, the two began a child-to-child conversation without nutrition.

"You're so fast!" the girl exclaimed again and again after recovering from the black snake's shock, followed by a look of horror at the original speed.

"Really? Thanks for the compliment. By the way, your leg hurts?" Yuan Yi said casually, and then changed his words and asked with concern.

"It's a little better, but it will take some time to heal completely. The girl's face was full of distress.

"Hehe, that's not in a hurry. By the way, what's your name?" Yuan Yi smiled slightly and said.

"Ling Hanfang, what about you?" the girl replied crisply, and then asked rhetorically.

"Yuan Yi, it's a pleasure to meet you!" said Yuan Yi, stretching out his little hand.

"You don't look very old, but you're quite old!" the girl also stretched out her slender hand, and the two shook each other, and she smiled with a mocking smile in her eyes.

"Bigger than you anyway. Yuan Yi argued unconvinced, as if at this time, in the face of the person opposite, he turned back to his childlike temperament and did not grow old anymore.

"Really? Tell me how old you are. The girl smiled.

"Before asking me about my age, should you report your age?" Yuan Yi rolled his eyes and smiled slightly.

"Eleven years, seven months and two days. The girl replied dryly.

"Huh. So coincidentally. I was eleven years and seven months and three days. Yuan Yi said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"You're a liar!" Obviously, the change in his expression could not hide the girl who had been watching him, and was immediately refuted by her coquettishness.

"Hehe! Fang Mei said that I was a liar, that is a lie!" Yuan Yi smiled, and in his words, he seemed to admit his mistake, but in fact, he used the title of "Fang Mei".

The girl obviously understood the verbal "trick", so she stared at Yuan Yi with bright eyes, and looked at Yuan Yi angrily, completely speechless for her rogue behavior!

......

After a while, Yuan Yi raised his head, seeing that the red sun was about to fall in the west, he immediately said, "Let's go!"

"My leg injury is not healed, it's just a burden, you go first!" said the girl with a sullen face.

"Hehe! It's not cumbersome, have you forgotten my speed?" Yuan Yi smiled.

Because it had been shown that the girl was not much slower when he held it, he said so.

"Well, in that case, I'll bother you. However, if you feel too heavy on the way and affect your speed, just let me go. When the girl heard this, she hesitated slightly, and hurriedly said.

After all, she can't give up this once-in-a-lifetime sect assessment easily.

Yuan Yi nodded noncommittally.

Then, with the girl behind him, he was about to run towards his destination.

At this time, the girl suddenly yawned a few times, her eyes suddenly became drowsy, and she fell on Yuan Yi's back. Gradually fall asleep!
