Chapter 269: Swaying in the Wind and Rain
But Lin Zhishen only took a glance and frowned, saying, "It's not long enough."
The distance from the cliff to the other side is at least 15 meters, plus it needs to be tied to everyone, so a rope of at least 18 meters is needed.
"Do you have any more ropes?" Si Xu turned to ask the two poor men. Uncle
Qiao flipped through it, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Who would have known that there was a problem with this bridge? I only brought one just in case."
Wan Shun was also searching in the luggage that came with him.
Lin Baoer's mind moved slightly, and she pretended to go over and look for it together, "I'll help you find it."
Then, behind their backs, she quietly exchanged a ten-meter-long rope from the system mall, pretending to be surprised, "Here is another bundle!"
All the things they bought had been checked with Lin Baoer, so she knew very well that she only brought one bundle of rope, but in order to reassure everyone, she still exchanged another bundle.
Seeing her take out this bundle of rope, Wan Shun touched his head and muttered, "Is this it? Why do I remember that I only brought one bundle..."
Lin Baoer pretended not to hear it, and touched her hair to cover her ears.
Everyone didn't hear Wan Shun's mumbling. Seeing another bundle, Si Xu quickly tied the two bundles together. After making sure they were tied tightly, he tied them around everyone.
Si Xu and a soldier led the way, followed closely by Lin Zhishen and Lin Baoer, Jiang Yuzhi and the two poor husbands behind them, You Chu followed, and the other two soldiers were at the end.
As soon as she stepped onto the bridge, the entire wooden bridge began to shake. Jiang Yuzhi nervously grabbed the ropes on both sides of the wooden bridge and took a deep breath. "I didn't expect to experience this for the first time. It's really exciting!"
After following Lin Baoer for so long, her tone and habits of a lady from a wealthy family had long gone. Now she was not only dressed neatly and comfortably, but also had no makeup on her face. Her long black hair was tied into a high ponytail, and she looked dashing in a men's suit.
In her words, men's suits are more comfortable to wear than skirts.
"Be careful, don't step on it." Lin Baoer reminded her to pay attention to her feet.
Jiang Yuzhi suddenly thought at this moment, "Sister Baoer, do you think it would be safer if we go one by one?"
Since Lin Baoer revealed her identity and Lin Zhishen tacitly agreed, Jiang Yuzhi's address to them has become more intimate, but it is only limited to Lin Baoer, and Lin Zhishen is still the respectful Mr. Lin. Lin Baoer
once asked her why, and she said that men and women should not be intimate, and they should be careful about the degree, which made Lin Baoer laugh.
"In theory, it is safer." Lin Baoer said frankly, walking slowly, "but this takes too much time, and it's going to rain soon."
The sky was dark and it looked like a rainstorm was about to fall. If something went wrong when it rained, it would be even more troublesome.
Jiang Yuzhi nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
They walked along like this, with people tied to each other, and nothing unexpected happened. But just when Si Xu, who was leading the group, was about to reach the other side, it started to rain.
"This is really unpredictable." Lin Baoer frowned.
"Walk faster." Lin Zhishen also urged them.
The group quickened their pace.
But I don't know if it was because the heavy rain made them panic, or because the increased speed made people feel uneasy. The chef suddenly stumbled, missed the wooden plank, and fell straight down.
"Ahhh!" He screamed in panic, holding on to the ropes on both sides with both hands. Fortunately,
he was tied with ropes, and the pulling force of the fall pulled the two people in front and behind him closer, so he was suspended in the air and did not fall.
You Chu was so frightened that his face turned pale, but perhaps he realized that he did not fall down, so he suppressed his panic and tried to hold on to the wooden bridge so as not to add burden to the people who pulled him.
After pulling for a while, the two people in front and behind him pulled him up.
When he stood on the solid wooden bridge again, You Chu's pounding heart fell back into his chest.
The abyss below was dizzying, and even a glance was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Be careful, watch your step." One of the soldiers warned him, with fear on his face.
If he really fell down like this, he would die with regrets.
You Chu nodded in fear.
After what he said, everyone became more cautious. After a while, Si Xu, who was in the lead, stepped on the solid ground and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hurry up!" he urged.
One after another, the people in front left the wooden bridge.
But when it came to Lin Baoer, something unexpected happened.
The strong wind and heavy rain came roaring, making the wooden bridge sway. The large shaking made it impossible for the people on the bridge to move. Not only that, the wind and rain hit their faces randomly, and the visibility in front was also reduced a lot, making it difficult to see.
Lin Zhishen's urging voice was in her ears, and then Lin Baoer felt that her waist was held by a hand, and after a while, her feet stepped on the solid ground.
Only then did she narrow her eyes and realize that she was carried over by Lin Zhishen.
But she was safe, and Jiang Yuzhi and the others behind her were still on the bridge.
Especially the two poor men, who had a lot of luggage on them. Even though they had just distributed a lot of things to each of them to reduce the weight, it was enough to hinder them and make them stagnate on the wooden bridge that was swaying in the wind and rain.
Without caring about anything else, Lin Baoer hurried to the wooden bridge and stretched out her hand to Jiang Yuzhi, "Yuzhi, hurry, grab my hand!"
Jiang Yuzhi had some kung fu skills. Hearing this, she tried her best to half-squat to stabilize her figure. After crossing the large empty wooden board, she suddenly grabbed Lin Baoer's hand.
Lin Baoer and Lin Zhishen pulled her over one after the other.
Jiang Yuzhi patted his chest in shock, "I was so scared, I thought the bridge was going to collapse."
As he said, after the two poor men were pulled up by them, the wooden bridge suddenly dropped down in front of everyone's horrified eyes, and the whole bridge fell straight down.
"General!"
The last two soldiers grabbed the rope in fear, their faces full of fear.
But Si Xu, the leader, couldn't care about them now. When he noticed that the rope tied to his body was getting tighter and tighter, he untied the rope neatly and neatly, and then tied it tightly to a big tree not far away.
But before he could tie it tight, the rope in his hand was suddenly tightened, and the knot at the end almost came loose.
"Xiaosong!" he roared.
Another soldier beside him quickly cooperated with him to tighten the rope until the knot was firmly tied to the tree.
But even so, the weight of the three people who fell down made the rope shake and warn that it was about to fall.
Just now, a few people fell down unexpectedly, and almost pulled down Jiang Yuzhi and Lin Baoer who were closest.
