Chapter 167: All Kinds of People
"Come over here!"
"Hurry up and climb up the vines!" The spider kept reinforcing the vines with spider silk, and the load-bearing capacity of each vine increased sharply.
Zhao Tianshuo and his group were the last of the student group. When they were not far from the tiger, Yun Xiang immediately arranged for some planters to climb the vines, hoping that this group would successfully reach the tiger while it was gathering strength.
Yun Xiang looked at the rest of the people and said, "Now each of us should choose a vine and hold on to it tightly. We can use ropes, plants we have grown ourselves, or other binding tools. Of course, if you think you have enough arm strength, you can just hold on to it."
In short, make sure you don't fall off the vines, even if you are hit by falling mud or stabbed by suddenly growing vines.
I have only two requests of you: one, don't faint, and two, don't let go! Even if you only have one breath left, you must do it. Can you do it?"
"Yes!" Everyone's heart was filled with pride, their voices louder than ever. The moment to decide life and death had arrived.
"Action!" Yun Xiang gave an order and everyone started moving.
"Climb faster, climb faster!" Zhao Tianshuo urged Li Man behind him while climbing.
The growers had just climbed up the vines, and here they were, while others had reached the middle, and they were still stuck here.
"Hurry up!" The person behind Li Man began to urge her.
"The rope... the rope is shaking too much." Li Man said tremblingly.
"It's almost the end. You can't get any further if you sway. Just be brave and you'll be through in no time. The middle section of those seniors was really swaying."
Li Zixi tried to persuade her kindly, but Li Man didn't appreciate it and complained immediately, "Captain, what a fool! You can't wait for us to get there before sending anyone else!"
This made Zhao Tianshuo furious. "Captain, what's wrong? Don't you understand the situation? We're running for our lives, not sightseeing! Are you going to let everyone else die just because of you?"
"You...you are going too far!" Li Man looked at Zhao Tianshuo with tears in her eyes, an accusing look on her face.
"Sister, can we go over there and cry first?" Li Zixi was so unlucky that he followed behind Li Man.
"Big...Big sister?" Li Man was stunned. Suddenly, there was a loud bang and the rolling ground beneath her collapsed, turning into a bottomless abyss.
Li Man grabbed the rope, shrank her head, and dared not move.
"Hurry up and climb, climb!" Li Zixi urged. It's true, there are always people who slack off.
They've been dawdling for so long, ever since they got on the vines, they haven't stopped for a moment. They were still moving before, but now they've just stopped. They're not afraid of death, but don't hold them back!
"I... I'm scared!" Li Man was shaking all over and didn't even dare to reach forward.
"It's almost here. Look, Brother Hu is coming!" Zhao Tianshuo was so anxious that he treated Hu as his brother.
Hey, Li Zixi's hand holding the vine trembled. How come he didn't know when he became sworn brothers with Brother Hu?
Aaaaa, he wants to become sworn brothers too! Li Zixi was about to climb out at twice his previous speed, but unfortunately, there was a stone sculpture of Li Man blocking the way, so he had to give up regretfully.
"I, I can't climb anymore!" Li Man simply closed her eyes and escaped.
"Fuck," Li Zixi said angrily, "Why are you keeping your eyes closed? We're hanging upside down, how can we see anything?"
"You--ah!" Li Man was about to retaliate when she suddenly screamed.
Her two interlocked feet suddenly loosened and slid down the vine, leaving only her hands holding on tightly.
"Help... Help! Quick, quick, save me!" Li Man gritted her teeth and clung to the vines, looking at Zhao Tianshuo with hope, "Zhao Tianshuo, save me!"
She knew that among their group, Zhao Tianshuo was the kindest and most soft-hearted.
Damn, how can we save her? They only have one pair of hands and one pair of feet each, how can we pull her out!
"Use your own strength to lift your legs up!" Li Zixi was angry, but still gave birth to a vine.
He was angry, but he couldn't let her fall to her death. He was about to approach Li Man, but Zhao Tianshuo next to him got there first and stretched out a hand towards her.
It’s bad! Li Zixi’s heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, Li Man grabbed Zhao Tianshuo's hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She first grabbed his hand with one hand, and then with the other hand.
Zhao Tianshuo overestimated his physical fitness, or overestimated the difficulty of being in the air. One hand could not support the weight of two people, and Li Man kept struggling. The other hand slipped down, and he could only barely keep steady by holding on with his remaining feet.
"Ah——" Li Man screamed, "Zhao Tianshuo, you better hook it properly!" Li Man's nails nervously dug into Zhao Tianshuo's flesh.
Zhao Tianshuo frowned in pain, but forced himself not to let go.
"Zhao Tianshuo, why are you letting go? We are going to die!"
"Zhao Tianshuo, you should think of a way!"
"Zhao Tianshuo——"
"Shut up!" The veins on Zhao Tianshuo's forehead were bulging. He could no longer bear it and shouted to shut up.
As soon as he finished speaking, his feet slipped away.
"ah--!"
"Wow!" There was a vine around Zhao Tianshuo's waist. He looked up and saw that it was Li Zixi.
"Brother, let me tell you, I can't hold on much... much longer! Damn, my waist is going to break!"
It was already difficult enough to support the weight of two people, and Li Man was still kicking non-stop from below.
"Sister, if you don't stop, we'll all die!"
"Oh, you have to hold on!" Li Man immediately didn't dare to move. But soon realized that they couldn't move at all, "What should I do?"
Zhao Tianshuo thought for a moment and said, "Let go of one of my hands first, and I'll help the vines grow."
Li Man paused, but instead of letting go, she held on tighter. "Zhao Tianshuo, you're not trying to get rid of me, are you? I won't let go."
"...Sister, he can only climb up again with the help of vines, and then we can be saved!" Li Zixi had a splitting headache.
"I don't believe it! You just want to leave me behind!" Li Man howled at the top of her lungs, "Ah—no one can let me die!"
"Fuck! You're crazy!"
"Don't think I don't know, you two are holding the trap and waiting for me to enter!"
Zhao Tianshuo and Li Zixi looked at each other. This guy must be suffering from paranoia.
Li Man saw the two people exchanged glances and became more certain of her guess. "Don't even think about giving me up, don't even think about--"
Li Man became more and more excited as she spoke, and her legs began to kick wildly again.
"No--sister!"
"ah!"
"Shit! What was that? I'm done!"
"Hold on to the vines! Don't let go!"
"ah!"
…
After the tiger swallowed the crystal core, its wings grew bigger, and its fur became smooth and shiny, making it look even more majestic.
He glanced at the team in the distance, decisively gave up building the bridge, and turned back to reinforce it.
The tiger's eyes stared into the distance, and his human-like eyes were full of worry and anxiety.
The collapse took only a moment. Yun Xiang felt his body flash and he suddenly fell down like a kite with a broken string. "Ah——"
Screams echoed throughout the jungle. Thirteen vines held people hanging from their ends, in all sorts of positions. The only thing they all shared was their howling, their hysterical howling.
