"Zhao Zhao!"
Zhan Nanxing called out, and Shen Zhaozhao quickly came back to his senses. At the moment of escaping, he didn't care about Cao Ya.
She tightly grasped the hand that Zhan Nanxing extended to her, and did not dare to lean her entire body weight on him.
After all, he had a leg injury. If he couldn't hold on and was pulled down by her, he would be finished.
Shen Zhaozhao looked to the right. The mountain was quite bald, and there were some vines as far as the eye could see.
Shen Zhaozhao held the vine with one hand, and Zhan Nanxing held the other hand, and pushed hard up the hillside with his legs.
Finally, I went up.
Along the way, she held Zhan Nanxing's hand and didn't dare to stop at all.
Zhan Nanxing couldn't walk fast at all. He fell and jumped all the way, gritting his teeth to keep up with Shen Zhaozhao.
Fortunately, they reached the ridge safely.
Shen Zhaozhao looked down and saw officers and some relatives of prisoners sitting scattered around. It was dark and raining heavily, so he couldn't tell who was who.
"Zhao Zhao, look."
Zhan Nanxing reminded Shen Zhaozhao in a low voice to look back.
She turned her head. It was dark and raining heavily, so her vision was poor. She squinted her eyes for a long time before she realized that the heavy rain had covered up the sound of the rushing mud and water behind her.
The mountain path they were originally walking on had been cut in half by a rolling mudslide.
If she had not immediately decided to ask everyone to abandon the mountain path and climb up the side slope, most of the people in the team would have been washed away by the mudslide.
Zhan Nanxing held Shen Zhaozhao's hand tightly.
His eyesight was extraordinary and he could see even in the dark.
That's why he was so frightened.
Watching the dark and rushing muddy water carrying a lot of sand and gravel rushing down the mountain, at the foot of the mountain was the village they had just left.
If Shen Zhaozhao hadn't warned them, they would have all died in the village.
"It's Longba!" an officer cried out beside them, "It's actually Longba, this is not just an ordinary flood!"
Dragon steak?
Shen Zhaozhao pursed his lips. It turned out that in ancient times, people called mudslides "dragons".
It’s really vivid.
It rushes down from the mountain, carrying mud and sand, like a dragon, and cleans up wherever it rushes to.
All around them were cries and calls for family members.
"Who has seen my daughter?"
"Dad? Dad! Where are you?"
"Jiang Tou'er? Where is the leader?"
…
"Let's go find grandma and the others." Zhan Nanxing's voice was a little cold. In the chaos just now, they were separated from the rest of their family.
He didn't dare to think about it.
How could my grandmother climb up such a steep slope?
"Okay." Shen Zhaozhao let go of Zhan Nanxing's hand, put his arm around his shoulders, and used his body to support his weight.
Zhan Nanxing was careful not to put all his weight on her.
But every step he takes, he needs someone to support him.
Zhan Nanxing gritted his teeth, preferring to jump and be embarrassed rather than rely entirely on Shen Zhaozhao.
"Aren't you tired?" Shen Zhaozhao looked at the people around him jumping forward while looking around for someone, and vaguely guessed what Zhan Nanxing was thinking.
This man still cares a lot about his reputation.
"Not tired." Zhan Nanxing grunted, then his peach blossom eyes lit up and he raised his hand and shouted, "Second sister-in-law!"
Guo is also looking for someone.
When she heard Zhan Nanxing's voice, she turned around immediately and saw Shen Zhaozhao and Zhan Nanxing supporting each other and coming over. She almost cried with excitement.
"You two made it so difficult for us to find you!" Guo rushed over in three or two steps and slapped Zhan Nanxing.
She was so anxious that she was panicking, and her emotions finally found an outlet.
Shen Zhaozhao was reluctant to fight.
So it was the third brother who had to bear the slap.
It was the first time that Zhan Nanxing was slapped by his second sister-in-law, but he didn't complain and asked about the situation of other people in the family.
Guo pointed to a place not far away, "It's over there!"
Shen Zhaozhao wiped the rain off his face, looked carefully, and saw the shadowy figures in the night.
It's not clear who is who.
Zhan Nanxing, who had good eyesight, looked at it for a while and felt relieved.
All the members of the Zhan family were present, even the grandmother was fine, she was just a little disheveled by the heavy rain.
“Zhao Zhao, thanks to your timely shouting, I climbed up as soon as I heard us crawl to the side.” Guo held Shen Zhaozhao’s arm and talked about the previous situation.
She came from a merchant family and did a lot of climbing trees to pick bird eggs when she was a child.
At Shen Zhaozhao's command, Guo rushed up the hillside in two steps. Huang Juan's skills were also extraordinary. After the two of them went up, they immediately pulled the others up.
"Grandma! My third brother and his wife are here!" Guo said, calling out loudly.
Old Madam Zhan and the others hurriedly got up and came over, and Zhan Nanxing and the others also went to greet them.
"Okay, okay."
Old Madam Zhan also had tears in her eyes.
Before seeing each other, everyone was worried. Only after confirming that everyone was fine did they suddenly relax.
The old lady held her hand tightly, and Shen Zhaozhao actually felt her eyes getting hot.
After only being away for a while, it felt like I had experienced a life-and-death separation with my family.
Everyone is safe and sound. This is God's mercy on the Zhan family.
Unconsciously, she had regarded herself as a part of the Zhan family, and these people in front of her were her family members.
On the ridge, the shouting and crying gradually became much quieter.
The other two families, like the Zhan family, found their own families. The servants also gathered and began to count the number of people.
"Report, the Chen family is not missing anyone, but someone fell down and is said to be unable to walk."
"The Zhan family has no fewer people, and no casualties."
After hearing his men's reply, Jiang Hu's expression improved a little, and he finally looked in the direction of the Cao family.
After a while, the last officer who was responsible for counting the number of Cao's family members came back.
The officer looked embarrassed and said, "Yes, Cao Mingye, who had a broken leg, is missing."
When Jiang Hu arrived at Cao's house, it was in chaos.
Everyone said that they had not seen Cao Mingye, and Cao Mingye had not asked them to help him climb the hill.
In short, take all the responsibility.
Once this person is exiled, his life is no longer his own, nor that of his family.
If the police investigate further, all members of the Cao family will be whipped.
"Officer, my aunt and cousin are here. If my uncle is still alive, he won't be far away." Facing Jiang Hu's intimidating gaze, Cao Ya stood up and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"The scene was so chaotic just now, and my aunt was busy taking my cousin up the hillside and ignored my uncle's leg problems."
Cao Ya sighed with regret, looked back at the way they came, and wiped his eyes.
"Why don't you wait until daybreak and take people to look for it?"
"If I can find my uncle's body..."
"I would like to thank you on behalf of the Cao family."
Shen Zhaozhao was also paying attention to the situation of the Cao family. After listening to Cao Ya's words, his heart tightened slightly and he lowered his eyes.
Cao Ya, this is going to make Cao Mingye die whether he lives or dies.
Because of this, the fugitive implicated the entire clan.
Cao Mingye was washed away by the mudslide.
He sorted out the pros and cons at the first opportunity, and made a decision on behalf of the entire family in front of his father, and the decision was so ruthless.
Could such a person be a little girl of about a year old who lost her mother's upbringing since childhood?
