"Third Master, we will always be waiting for you here. We will never leave until you come back." Lao Liu shouted while lying on the edge of the valley, his eyes now red.
The valley walls were covered with dense trees and protruding strange rocks. Although the light in the valley was almost dark, Xiang Wentian still relied on his extraordinary eyesight to easily avoid all rocks and branches that could cause harm to people.
Fortunately, the ropes they carried were different from ordinary ones. Although thin, they were extremely strong and tough. Each rope could be up to 500 meters long, and the five ropes connected together were about 2,500 meters long. So he had enough confidence that he could reach the bottom of the valley with them.
But we have already descended to 500 meters... 800 meters... 1,000 meters... 1,500 meters...
The deeper he descended, the more Xiang Wentian's heart sank. He hoped that Leng You could rely on the trees on the valley wall to support his body when he jumped down. However, when he looked for Leng You in the direction where he jumped down, he could not find him at all.
The roaring sound of the river at the bottom of the valley was clearly reflected in his ears, and Xiang Wentian's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. But he would never give up until he reached the bottom of the valley and found that figure.
His feet finally touched the ground, but the jagged rocks almost shattered the last glimmer of hope in Xiang Wentian's heart.
After closing his eyes, Xiang Wentian felt his heart beating so fast that it was about to burst his chest.
Mustering up my courage, I looked forward and saw the body of a man.
The man was thrown beyond recognition, with half of his body submerged in water.
On the rocky beach further away, there was an obvious pool of blood, which was obviously not from this man.
Xiang Wentian felt like his breathing was about to freeze. He calmed down and wanted to confirm whether his eyesight was correct. He raised his hand to take out the flashlight to check again.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew.
Xiang Wentian dodged the fierce attack and subconsciously threw a punch, and the opponent's punch followed closely.
Just when the two fists met with a difference of just millimeters, both of them froze in place.
"faint……"
"elder brother……"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
They both smelled the fragrance that was so familiar to each other that they had already penetrated into their bones:
Leng You still smelled the scent of mint mixed with grass, but now there was a faint smell of blood;
The light scent of grape flowers also rushed straight into Xiang Wentian's nose, but the milky fragrance that always made people's hearts extremely soft ten years ago has been replaced by a faint medicinal fragrance mixed with a strong smell of blood.
"Youyou, your injury..."
"Brother, are you hurt?"
The two of them spoke at the same time again, and what they said was filled with a hint of urgent concern for each other.
"You were shot." Xiang Wentian spoke first.
"I'm fine, the bullet has been dug out and the bleeding has stopped. You..." Leng You fell down softly before he could finish his forced calm voice.
"Youyou!" Xiang Wentian caught Leng You and held her tightly in his arms.
Every night I dream of that small, soft body held in my arms. Many years later, I relive it in this way, but it is not pleasant.
"I'm fine, I just lost too much blood. I haven't fully recovered yet. I just need to rest for a while." His nerves, which had been tense because he noticed someone coming, relaxed as his body did.
Fine beads of sweat seeped out of Leng You's forehead, reflecting his pale little face, making Xiang Wentian seem to be back to the moment when he first saw Leng You ten years ago.
