Chapter 112 Carelessness
Soon, a figure wrapped in snow appeared and finally stood firm after struggling in the snow for a while.
It's a human!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
When they saw it just now, they thought they had encountered the legendary snow monster.
Legend has it that there is a snow monster in this area, and it appears whenever there is heavy snow.
Whenever the snow monster appears, people or livestock that encounter it nearby will have their stomachs cut open and their hearts taken out, and people are terrified when they talk about it.
Lin Shuo looked ahead, frowning:
"Why are you here?"
"I want to help you find medicine." Shen Liuli shook off the snow on her body, a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes. The snow on the ground was too thick and it was very difficult to walk, otherwise she would not have been discovered.
Looking at her body swaying in the wind, Lin Shuo shook his head:
"I don't need your help. Just go back quickly. It's too cold outside, and the road is difficult to walk on. It's easy to get into trouble."
Shen Liuli looked up, “What if I insist on helping?
More people means more effort, right? "
Lin Shuo looked at her for a while before speaking:
"What do you want?"
Shen Liuli, he knew.
He had seen her before when he went to Shen's house to look for his sister.
She used to be a very cold person. Every time I saw her, she always looked very arrogant.
She is definitely not the type of person who would help others for no reason.
Shen Liuli looked up, “I want ten kilograms of rice, a quilt, and a bottle of gold wound medicine.”
Without a purpose, no one will believe in you.
Lin Shuo looked her over carefully, then nodded.
"Okay! Let's go!"
Liu Dongyang frowned and said, "Lin Shuo, it's not a good idea to take her with you, right?
If we take you alone, we may not be able to guarantee your safety.
Now there is another little girl, I am afraid it will be even more troublesome. If something happens to her, we will not be able to explain to the Shen family."
The Shen family is not easy to mess with, and Liu Dongyang doesn't want to deal with them.
"I don't need your protection." Shen Liuli glanced at them:
"So don't worry that I'll cause you any trouble."
Lin Shuo shrugged, "You can't persuade her to leave.
It would be better to take her with us, otherwise if she runs around on her own, it would be even more troublesome for us if something happens."
Speaking of this, a dark light flashed quickly in Lin Shuo's eyes.
There was no way Shen Liuli would be so kind as to help him.
He had not forgotten her attitude towards his sister.
As for what her purpose is, you can only know it by keeping her by your side.
Otherwise, she would hide in the dark and do something wrong, which would be impossible to guard against.
Liu Dongyang sighed and shook his head:
"Since we're all out, let's go together.
Remember to follow us closely and don’t fall behind.”
After Shen Liuli nodded, the few of them set off again.
Their footprints were soon left in the snow, but these footprints were soon covered by the wind and snow.
"No!"
Liu Dongyang used the stick in his hand to knock off the snow piled on the bushes nearby and shook his head with some regret.
He looked around.
It was a vast expanse of white, with hardly any grass to be seen, and it was very difficult to find.
Liu Dongyang's eyes fell on Lin Shuo, who was clearing away the snow with a stick not far away, and he shook his head:
"Lin Shuo, let's keep going forward.
Doctor Mu said ephedra is cold-resistant, and even in this cold weather, it won't wither. If it doesn't wither, it must still be growing. Even if covered in snow, its branches will stand out because they're still standing. If we follow this, we might be able to find it sooner."
Lin Shuo nodded.
He lifted his feet and walked forward with difficulty.
With a direction, they searched much faster.
It’s a pity that all I got was disappointment.
And before they knew it, they had gotten separated.
When Lin Shuo realized that Liu Dongyang and the others were missing, he actually came to a cliff.
Glancing at Shen Liuli who was breathing heavily not far from him, Lin Shuo shook his head:
"You rest here for a while, then we'll go back to find Brother Dongyang and the others."
After saying that, he picked up the stick again and searched around.
Now that I'm here, I naturally can't give up the opportunity to look for it.
Shen Liuli, who was breathing heavily on the side, glanced at Lin Shuo with a gloomy look, and then looked around.
Soon, she stood up straight and walked quickly towards Lin Shuo.
If I...
"What are you doing?" Lin Shuo looked at Shen Liuli who was walking behind him, and frowned.
"Now that you've rested enough, let's go down and find Liu Dongyang and the others."
After saying that, he turned around and walked down the mountain.
A hint of regret flashed across Shen Liuli's eyes. Lin Shuo dodged quickly enough!
She looked down the cliff with regret.
When I saw this, I was stunned.
Is this God’s help?
There was a hint of madness in Shen Liuli’s eyes.
After walking for a while, Lin Shuo found that Shen Liuli had not kept up with him, so he stopped and looked back at her:
“Chen Liuli, let’s go!
We have to hurry and find Brother Dongyang and the others."
Shen Liuli put away all her thoughts and turned to look at him:
"Come and take a look. Is this the ephedra you want?"
Ephedra!
Lin Shuo was delighted and rushed over quickly.
Sure enough, an ephedra plant was growing on a cliff.
The trunk of the plant is covered with ice and snow, and if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.
But soon Lin Shuo's smile froze on his face.
It was about ten feet away from the top of the cliff, and I couldn't reach it at all.
At this moment, a bundle of thin hemp rope was handed to him.
Lin Shuo looked up at her. Before he could speak, Shen Liuli spoke first:
"Tie me up with this rope and I'll go down and pick them."
"What?" Lin Shuo's eyes widened, and after coming to his senses, he quickly shook his head:
"No! This is none of your business. I can't let you take this risk. I'll just go down."
"Are you sure?" Shen Liuli frowned:
"This hemp rope isn't thick enough to bear your weight. What if it breaks and you fall?"
Lin Shuo's face froze. This was indeed a problem.
He wanted to fold the rope into a double layer, but found that it didn't seem long enough.
He looked up at Shen Liuli, hesitant to speak, with a serious face:
"Thank you, I misunderstood you before. You are a very nice person."
"Just remember to pay me."
Shen Liuli just glanced at him, said nothing more, and began to look for a place to fix the rope.
Finally, a protruding stone was chosen.
Then he tied one end of the rope directly to the stone. After testing whether it was firm or not, Shen Liuli then tied the other end of the rope around his waist.
After doing all this, Shen Liuli walked to the cliff.
When she looked down, her legs began to shake uncontrollably. She would definitely die if she fell down.
Lin Shuo also swallowed nervously:
“Chen Liuli, how about we find another way?
I'll go get Brother Dongyang and the others. They should have a solution. You'd better not take any risks.
You discovered the medicine, and I will pay you for it."
"Can your mother delay it?" Shen Liuli glanced at him:
"You'll have to pull me up later."
After saying that, he shook his body, grabbed the rope and slowly moved down.
Looking back, Shen Liuli regretted it for a moment.
But soon his eyes became serious again and moved downwards tentatively again.
Suddenly her foot slipped and she slid down uncontrollably.
“Ahhhh!”
“Shen Liuli!”
Both of them screamed in fear.
Lin Shuo rushed to the edge of the cliff, and when he saw Shen Liuli’s thin figure swaying back and forth in the middle, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there was a rope.
At this moment, Shen Liuli's face was terribly pale, and he was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.
This feeling of being suspended in the air is not pleasant.
Especially when the cold wind blows, the rope swings with the wind, which is even more terrifying.
But she thought of her purpose.
There was a hint of determination on Shen Liuli’s face.
Now that she has come this far, she won't let her suffering be in vain.
Thinking of this, she tried to move her body to get closer to the ephedra plant.
But after trying several times, I was just a little bit off.
This scene scared Lin Shuo upstairs so much that his heart almost stopped beating.
“Be careful, Shen Liuli, be careful, don’t force yourself, take your time.”
But Shen Liuli didn't listen to him at all, and tried to swing over. After several times, she finally succeeded in catching Ephedra.
As she swung out, she pulled out the ephedra with force.
Looking at the ephedra in her hand, she raised it and shook it towards Lin Shuo excitedly:
"I got it."
Lin Shuo nodded excitedly:
“Well, Shen Liuli, you are really amazing, I will pull you up right away.”
Shen Liuli nodded, stuffed the ephedra in her hand into her arms, and then grabbed the hemp rope with both hands, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes that was colder than ice at this time.
Almost there!
She couldn't help but exert force with her hands holding the hemp rope.
As the rope moved, Shen Liuli's body was moving up little by little.
When they were almost at the edge of the cliff, Shen Liuli stretched out her hand towards Lin Shuo:
"Pull me up quickly."
Lin Shuo didn't think much about it. While holding the rope tightly with his right hand, he stretched out his left hand to grab Shen Liuli's hand.
But just as he stretched out his hand, Shen Liuli's hand grabbed his wrist first.
Lin Shuo was puzzled. She grabbed his wrist, but he couldn't use too much force. Shouldn't he hold his hand?
He was just about to speak up to remind others that he had caught the wrong person when he suddenly felt a huge pulling force on his wrist.
Before he could react, he fell uncontrollably towards the cliff.
And because the rope no longer had anyone pulling it, Shen Liuli also fell down, hanging in the middle and swaying back and forth.
Lin Shuo stared with wide eyes at Shen Liuli who was getting farther and farther away from him.
Going through all this trouble just to take his life?
He was careless after all.
If he died, would she give the medicine to his mother?
