Chapter 270: Crisis Rescue
The ropes around Jiang Yuzhi and Lin Baoer's waists were so tight that a flash of pain flashed across their faces. Fortunately, Lin Zhishen reacted in time and grabbed Wan Shun, who was about to fall off the cliff. He pulled the rope that connected several people, and the veins on his hands bulged.
The heavy rain and the howling wind blew, and the three people hanging on the cliff were blown to the point
of falling. Their life and death depended on a tiny rope. Fortunately, the rope that Lin Baoer exchanged from the system mall was of better quality than the one in this world, and it didn't break after struggling for a long time.
"Quick! Pull the people up first!" Si Xu shouted.
He wiped his face that was covered with rain, squinted his eyes and ran to Lin Zhishen, following him to pull hard.
Lin Zhishen also growled at the three people under the cliff, "Look for anything nearby to use as leverage."
It was still a bit difficult to pull up three adult men.
Especially the force of the wind and rain gave them a lot of obstacles.
Another soldier, Xiaosong and Uncle Qiao, also ran over to help, pulling the rope in their hands together, gritting their teeth and holding on.
As for the three people below, except for You Chu who was already scared out of his wits, the other two soldiers quickly reacted after hearing what they said, and they all looked for rocks near the cliff that could be used for leverage, trying to let them cling to it and reduce the burden on the people above.
Even with such a hard pull, the three people were slowly pulled up.
It took the whole city about half an hour, and when everyone came up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The two soldiers lay on their backs on the ground, their heartbeats never calmed down, and one of them almost cried, "I was scared to death! I thought I was going to die here!"
"Don't say such sad words!" Xiaosong hurried to help him up and wiped the water off his face, "We can't stay here for long, the commander-in-chief asked us to leave here as soon as possible after resting."
The soldier nodded hurriedly, and the feeling of surviving a disaster made his hands and feet weak.
The two soldiers adapted well, but the chef was so scared that he couldn't walk, his legs and feet were weak and trembling.
But what surprised everyone was that even so, he didn't drop the equipment on his body, but kept it firmly in his hands.
No one noticed it at the time, otherwise if they found out, they would definitely let him drop it to reduce the weight.
The chef was called Wang Zhong, who was about the same age as Uncle Qiao. He just cried and trembled when he heard the words, and then he protected the things on his body tightly, "It doesn't matter if I die. If I lose these things, I won't be able to face them."
Although he was a chef, he had followed several caravans to the desert, and each time he came out with great luck. He didn't want to get involved in such a dangerous place again, but his mother was sick and needed money urgently, so he had to take the initiative to recommend himself, and then he was selected by Lin Mobai.
The pots, bowls, and pans he carried with him were his family's heirlooms, and they had been with him for a long time, so he was so reluctant to part with them.
As for the other two soldiers' belongings, they naturally fell off the cliff when they fell off the cliff. Fortunately, they were not valuable things, just some daily clothes and medicines for treating internal and external injuries.
"I'm sorry, General, I didn't catch it at that time." Soldier Yin Qiang was full of guilt. He was soaked all over, and there were many blood marks on his face and hands from being scratched by the cliff. He looked very miserable.
The reason why he apologized was that the medical kits of the entire team were on him. He originally thought that he would never leave these things behind even if he died. Who would have thought that when he fell off the cliff just now, his hand loosened and the medical kit fell straight down without a trace.
If anyone in the team was injured in the future, I'm afraid they would be helpless.
Si Xu patted his shoulder and shook his head at him, "It's okay as long as your life is safe."
Jiang Yuzhi also jumped out from the side, shook his bag, and smiled, "Don't worry, I still brought a lot of medicine here!"
Yin Qiang breathed a sigh of relief and showed a relaxed expression on his face.
After counting all the things, the group left there quickly and hurried to find a shelter to rest.
According to this storm, I'm afraid they can't keep going tonight, but where can they find a shelter in this desolate mountain?
The sky gradually darkened, and a thunder flashed in the sky, scaring many people.
"No, it's too slow. I'll go explore the way first." Lin Zhishen frowned. He had Lin Baoer's bag on his shoulder. The hem of his clothes was covered with dirt and he was soaked.
It should be said that not only him, but everyone was soaked by the rain. If they continue to suffer like this, I'm afraid many people will catch a cold.
They probably died halfway through the journey.
Si Xu also said, "I'll go with you!"
Lin Zhishen nodded, patted Lin Baoer soothingly, and whispered, "You go with them, be careful."
Lin Baoer nodded.
She glanced at the sky with a worried look and sighed in her heart.
[This is such a bad weather. You won't sleep outdoors tonight, right? I don't mind, but as for them... they probably can't bear it, right? How come we have encountered such extreme weather at the beginning? It seems that the journey will not be peaceful. γ
γIt is not easy for me to take those things out with so many people. I can only take one step at a time. I hope everything will be fine. γ
Lin Zhishen paused, looked at Lin Baoer with deep eyes, and then followed Si Xu to leave first.
After Si Xu left, Xiaosong took the initiative to lean beside Lin Baoer and tried his best to protect her, "Miss, be careful of the branches."
"Be careful of this moss, it's very slippery." "
There are pits here."
"Miss Jiang, don't touch that tree, it will make your skin itchy." He
stayed by the two of them dutifully and kept reminding them.
But as time passed, the visibility in the dense forest became lower, and later it was almost impossible to see the road ahead.
But there was an advantage to this. The dense forest blocked out a lot of rain. At least they didn't have to be blinded by the rain all the time.
Xiaosong took out a grease paste from his bag, and then tried to make a torch with his coat and a piece of wood. He thought it would not work, but the fire suddenly ignited, which surprised him.
"Now I can see!"
Yin Qiang and another soldier's bags fell off the cliff. Now they had nothing on them. Naturally, they couldn't make a torch like Xiao Song did. But this torch was enough for a few people to see.
With the torch, they could see the road ahead.
Suddenly, Jiang Yuzhi screamed in surprise, not knowing what he stepped on.
