The shrill sound of the whistle woke Mo Jingchun up.
The moment I opened my eyes, I felt a sharp pain between my ribs.
Mo Jingchun gritted his teeth and didn't cry out in pain. He immediately looked at Jiang Li's position beside him.
Jiang Li, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had his eyes tightly closed and his face was pale. He had not woken up yet.
Mo Jingchun's heart tightened, and he gently shook Jiang Li with his hands. With his efforts, Jiang Li finally woke up from his coma.
"Mo Jingchun!"
The first thing Jiang Li did when she woke up was to look at the people around her. Her eyes were extremely panicked. "Are you okay?"
"Don't ask this for now, Jiang Li, we should..."
Mo Jingchun suddenly closed his eyes and broke out in a cold sweat.
"you……"
Because Mo Jingchun protected Jiang Li's whole body when the vehicle rolled into the valley, she only had some minor scratches and was not seriously injured.
"I'm fine, come on, get out of the car."
Mo Jingchun opened his eyes, a relaxed smile appeared on his face, comforting Jiang Li's emotions.
Jiang Li bit his pale lips, his eyes reddened, and he nodded vigorously.
Fortunately, the vehicle did not fall sideways after rolling. Mo Jingchun tried to push open the door. With the help of the car's headlights, Mo Jingchun noticed a yellow-red turbidity outside.
"Jiang Li, come here."
Since Jiang Li's door was blocked, she broke free from the passenger seat and came to Mo Jingchun's side.
Mo Jingchun took a deep breath and kicked the car door open with all his strength.
"Clatter, clatter."
The water that was originally isolated outside by the car door instantly poured into the car.
"Jiang Li, hurry!"
Mo Jingchun endured the pain in his ribs, grabbed Jiang Li's hands and pulled her out of the car.
After some effort, the two finally got out of the car.
At this moment, the sky was as gloomy as midnight. Apart from the lightning rolling in the dark clouds, the surroundings were so dark that it was almost impossible to see anything.
"Ahem."
Because of the excessive force he had used before, Mo Jingchun coughed up some blood.
"Jingchun," Jiang Li held Mo Jingchun's arm, his expression anxious as if he was about to cry in the next second.
"It's okay, let's find a way to get up there."
Mo Jingchun comforted Jiang Li nonchalantly, and then the two of them took out their cell phones from their pockets and started walking towards the hillside under the dim light.
However, the landslide changed the terrain of the area. The two men waded through waist-deep water for a long time but could not find a way to go up.
The dark clouds in the sky rumbled, and the white lightning turned into violent thunder dragons that kept shuttling back and forth in them. Before the two had walked for long, the rain started to fall again.
“Huff, huff, huff.”
Mo Jingchun's breathing was heavy. He was keenly aware that his injuries might not be as simple as just broken ribs, but he couldn't get medical treatment now, and he wasn't sure where else he was injured.
"Mo Jingchun, why are you so stupid?"
Jiang Li's voice came from the side. At this moment, the rain was hitting their faces, making it difficult to tell what was happening.
"Why, I clearly..."
Mo Jingchun smiled faintly. He looked at Jiang Li who lowered her head and wanted to reach out and touch her cheek.
“Boom!”
An extremely dull voice resounded between heaven and earth, causing Mo Jingchun's outstretched hand to stop in mid-air.
The two men stopped where they were. Mo Jingchun keenly noticed that the sound just made was not right. He looked around for a long time but did not see any lightning.
"No, it's a flash flood!"
Mo Jingchun knew very well where they were now, and that if a flash flood came, they would have nowhere to retreat.
Mo Jingchun and Jiang Li looked around, and at the critical moment, they unexpectedly found a high point.
There was a tree as thick as a wrist growing near the national highway, and there was no loose soil caused by landslides, so the two of them could easily climb up.
"quick!"
Mo Jingchun and Jiang Li took action immediately. Because the rain hitting the waist-deep water interfered with their vision and hearing, they did not notice that the flash flood was approaching.
The two of them climbed to a place near the tree with great effort. Mo Jingchun ignored Jiang Li's suggestion that he should go up first, and directly lifted Jiang Li's slender legs and put her on top.
"Mo Jingchun, grab my hand!"
The rain soaked Jiang Li's clothes. She adjusted her posture and stretched out her hands to grab Mo Jingchun.
Just as Mo Jingchun climbed up with gritted teeth, turbid water suddenly appeared beside them.
Mo Jingchun slipped and the half of his body that had climbed to the higher point was hit by the flood and fell back down. Fortunately, he quickly stepped on a support point and was not immediately washed away by the water.
"Mo Jingchun!"
Jiang Li gritted her teeth and did not let go of Mo Jingchun's hand. She knew that if she let go at this moment, Mo Jingchun might really be washed away by the flood.
The sudden change and the current tense situation made Jiang Li feel an indescribable sense of apology and regret.
The mountain torrent hit Mo Jingchun's body. He felt that the support point under his feet was a little loose, and because of him, Jiang Li began to slide down uncontrollably.
Mo Jingchun tried to climb up, but the injuries on his body, coupled with the impact of the flood, made it impossible for him to do so.
Mo Jingchun laughed. Is this God's punishment for his cowardice?
The rain seemed to have subsided, as if God had deliberately reserved time for them to say goodbye.
