Chapter 140 I'm Down There
Hearing that they were going down the cliff to rescue people, Old Man Chen was so angry that he cursed in his heart.
Wu Baoan, Wu Baoan, you are such a fool. Even after saying so much, you still want to seek death.
This place is full of dangers. Besides wild beasts, there are also many poisonous insects.
His old arms and legs can't withstand the torture. If he is bitten by a poisonous insect, he will be disabled if not killed.
As the saying goes, it's hard to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. Since you want to die, don't drag me into it...
Thinking of this, he beat his chest and stamped his feet, pretending to be heartbroken, and burst into tears.
"Zhanliang, Daddy wishes I could take your soul home right now, but my legs are so weak, I can't even walk!"
Seeing him howling at the top of his lungs, Wu Baoan shook his head and sighed, "Uncle Zhonghou, stop yelling. Since you can't walk anymore, take a rest first."
"Okay, then you better be careful!" Old man Chen pretended to wipe away his tears and howled at the top of his voice, "My son, you died so tragically. You left like this, leaving your father to live..."
Chen Zhanshan was upset and said angrily, "Alright, stop howling. If you attract wolves, it will hurt everyone!"
"What, wolf!"
Old man Chen was shocked. He was so careless that he forgot about this matter.
If everyone goes down and I am the only one left, what should I do if a wolf suddenly jumps out?
Hearing the faint howling of wolves in the distance, my heart tightened and I felt a chill running down my spine...
It is said that Chen Zhanliang rushed out of the house, worried about Dabao's safety, and ran all the way to the Wild Wolf Valley.
Looking at the dense woods, he didn't think twice and groped his way into the mountain to the west where there were fewer bushes.
Because she left in a hurry, she didn't even bring a torch. In this dark night, she was supported by the love for her son in her heart to move forward.
He took one deep step and one shallow step, calling Dabao's name on the mountain, but there was only the rustling sound of the wind in his ears, and no response from Dabao at all.
Chen Zhanliang was extremely anxious and his steps became faster and faster.
I don't know how far I ran, but a sharp wolf howl came from the valley.
He was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and he felt a chill rushing from his spine to his forehead.
In shock, his foot slipped and he rolled down the cliff to the side.
He just felt his head buzzing, and then he lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, he woke up in severe pain.
Chen Zhanliang endured the pain and gritted his teeth as he tried to stand up, but every time he moved he felt a piercing pain in his legs.
He was worried about his son and tried several more times but failed. He had no strength in his calves, as if his leg bones were broken.
He lay at the foot of the cliff with a look of despair on his face.
At this moment, he heard a slight sound coming from the mountain, and his heart rose to his throat again.
Could it be that the wolf followed the smell of blood?
The cold sweat on his forehead flowed down. If he didn't find his son, he would fall into the wolf's mouth.
Forget it. I’m not going to survive anyway. It’s better to die with my son on a mountain.
He closed his eyes resignedly, waiting for the hungry wolf to come and bite his neck off, which would be a quick death.
After a long time, there was no response. He opened his eyes and looked around in the faint starlight. He didn't see any trace of the wolf, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
But when I thought of the wolf howling just now, my heart tightened again. Dabao must be in great danger.
His eyes were red, and he slapped his broken leg hard. He couldn't continue looking for his son. He blamed himself, felt guilty, and was anxious...
Suddenly, Chen Zhanliang seemed to hear bursts of crying coming from the cliff. He immediately became alert and pricked up his ears to listen carefully.
He recognized it as Old Man Chen's voice. His father must have been worried about him and personally brought people to chase him.
Thinking of this, Chen Zhanliang felt a lump in his throat. It seemed that his father still loved him.
He couldn't help but respond loudly, "Dad~~Dad~~I'm here..."
Just when Old Man Chen was in a daze, he suddenly seemed to hear someone calling "Dad".
He hurriedly shouted to Wu Baoan, who was discussing countermeasures, "Security, be quiet for now. Does someone sound like they're calling you dad?"
"Uncle Zhonghou, there is no sound here. Don't get startled. It will scare people to death." Wu Baoan ignored him and continued to discuss how to get down the cliff to rescue people.
When Old Man Chen heard him say this, he shook his head vigorously and muttered to himself,
That’s not right. It seemed like that was Zhan Liang’s voice just now. How could they not hear it?
What is going on? Could it be that Zhan Liang’s ghost is still lingering, feeling that his death was unjust, and is calling me from the bottom of the cliff to take him home?
Impossible, this must be an illusion.
Just as he was lost in thought, he heard someone shouting, "Dad, I'm down there, I'm down there..."
Old man Chen was so frightened that he screamed, "Oh my god, there's a ghost!"
Wu Baoan was frightened by him, "Uncle Zhonghou, are you done yet? Do you want to scare a few people to death before you give up?"
"No, no, no, no, it's not like that. Baobao, Baoan, someone is really calling daddy."
Old man Chen was so frightened that he almost peed his pants and his mouth was swollen.
"Ken Ken, it must be Zhan Liang's ghost that's still lingering around, trying to lure me to find him.
You said he should die, so what are you asking me to do? Let's go quickly, or we'll run into ghosts."
Wu Baoan listened to him talking more and more outrageously. Just when he was about to scold him a few more times, he also heard a faint cry for help. He quickly signaled everyone to be quiet, held his breath and listened attentively.
"Did you hear that? It sounds like someone is shouting for help."
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, it's Zhan Liang's voice."
"That's great, Zhan Liang is not dead, he is still alive."
"Yes, let's go down and rescue him quickly!"
Hearing what they said, Old Man Chen stamped his feet anxiously, "You are so foolish and bold, you don't understand anything. This sound is so miserable, it's clearly the cry of a ghost.
It's attracting our attention, and then making us fall off the cliff and die one by one. We must not take this risk.
I'd say there's too much resentment here. For everyone's safety, we need to turn back quickly, or none of us will survive."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Wu Baoan was furious. "Uncle Zhonghou, stop talking nonsense. It was clearly Zhan Liang's voice just now. Don't be so mysterious. If you are afraid, just wait up there. We will go down and save Zhan Liang."
Hearing the wolf howling in the distance, Old Man Chen's scalp tingled and he quickly waved his hands, "No, no, no, don't leave me alone, I'd better go with you!"
"Whatever you want!"
Wu Baoan ignored him, then found a slightly gentler slope and quickly led everyone to the bottom of the cliff.
Everyone was very careful and finally reached the bottom of the cliff after great effort.
By the light of the torch, they saw Chen Zhanliang huddled not far away. Everyone ran over quickly.
Wu Baoan's face was filled with anxiety. "Zhanliang, how do you feel? Are you injured?"
Chen Zhanliang weakly raised his hand and pointed at his calf, "Village head, my leg seems to be broken."
Old man Chen was already exhausted and wanted to sit down and have a good rest, but he saw that everyone was surrounding him with anxious faces.
In order to pretend, he had to grit his teeth, separate the others and rush forward crying...
