Chapter 98098 Chu Songxianxianxia
Chu Yaoguo watched Chu Song running towards the mountain without looking back. He held his breath and clenched his teeth. The last time he called out "Chu Song" was in vain.
If anything happened to Chu Song, how could he, as a father, live with dignity? How could he explain to her mother...
Chu Yaoguo really wished that he was the one who went into the mountains.
"Uncle Chu." He Qian's face still had the comical five-fingerprint mark. He looked deeply at Chu Yaoguo, then let go of him and forced himself to calm down. "Chu Song is right."
"If you really want to help, then calm down. There are four detonation points left. We need to notify the engineers to abort the detonation before Chu Song descends the mountain."
He Qian spread out the map and marked four detonation points. "We'll each be responsible for one, and we must act quickly! Do you understand?"
This is for Yingniu's parents to hear.
After hearing this, the two nodded repeatedly, feeling both grateful and scared.
He Qian: "This is a matter of life and death, we must act quickly!"
It was 11:43, and there were still 17 minutes before the explosives were to explode. Chu Song was running wildly on the gravel.
"Yingniu! Yingniu————" She shouted at the top of her lungs, but her voice was torn into pieces by the mountain wind.
A seven-year-old child shouldn't be able to run far, and shouldn't go out in the morning. If he hasn't returned home by noon, it's likely that something happened to him.
Some of the bushes in the forest were taller than people. The woods were quiet. The sound of Chu Song breaking dead branches startled a few tits. She trotted, keeping her eyes and ears open, not wanting to miss any corner.
"Yingniu! Yingniu——"
11:50.
Chu Song was breathing heavily, and finally got something. A small sob came from the bushes in front.
She went forward and saw that it was indeed Yingniu. She was huddled in a crevice of the rock, her calves scratched by wild thorns, leaving bloody marks on her calves, and her face was covered in black and red spots, so dirty that her features could not be seen.
"Yingniu!"
Yingniu shrank her head, and when she saw it was her, she timidly called out, "Sister Xianxian."
"Come on! I'll pull you out." Chu Song took great pains to get the person out of the pit. Yingniu had scratches all over her body, so she simply carried the person on her back.
"Hold on to me, okay? We're going down the mountain now."
Yingniu lay on Chu Song's back, her little hands tightly around her neck, and she responded obediently, "Okay."
Chu Song ran down the mountain along the same path he came. At 11:55, with five minutes left, the mountain suddenly shook—it was a test explosion, a test explosion five minutes in advance!
There was a loud "boom". Even though Chu Song was still some distance away from the test explosion point, he felt a strong impact. Then, rubble fell from the sky.
No matter how skilled Chu Song was or how strong her physique was, she was just a mortal body. She couldn't dodge in time and was knocked to the ground by the gust of air behind her, with gravel brushing against her cheek.
"Sister Xianxian!"
"I'm fine."
Chu Song got up and Yingniu looked at her. Both of them, one big and one small, were in a very miserable state.
Fortunately, it was just a test explosion. If the explosives were officially detonated, the power would probably be several times greater than it is now.
Chu Song asked, "Are you injured anywhere?"
Yingniu shook her head with tears in her eyes.
"Let's go. We can't stay here any longer. Let's take another route down the mountain." Chu Song carried the person on his back again.
At the same time, He Qian heard the sound of a test explosion on the mountain. His heart sank, but he did not stop and quickly notified his colleagues in the engineering team to stop detonating the explosives.
"What the hell, why are there still people on the mountain?!"
"When did this happen? Is she still on the mountain now?!"
"My God, she actually dared to go up the mountain."
He Qian remained silent. He looked into the distance, not knowing what the situation was at the other detonation points, nor whether Chu Song had found Yingniu, let alone whether she was safe now.
He Qian only remembered those dark, bright eyes...
On the other side, the people at the foot of the mountain who heard the news were also in chaos.
Ye Xiuzhi's face turned pale in an instant, losing all color. She wanted to go up the mountain to find Chu Song, but was stopped by Chu Heng with red eyes. "Mom! The explosives on the mountain could explode at any time now. You can't go there anymore!"
Ye Xiuzhi yelled at him, "Let go! You don't dare, but I do. She's your biological sister, my biological daughter, and you're just going to stand by and watch?!"
Chu Heng's throat choked with sobs. He was certainly anxious, but he had to put the overall situation first. "Mom! If you go up the mountain now, you will only cause more trouble!"
"Chu Heng!"
"mother!"
Chu Heng grabbed Ye Xiuzhi and prevented her from rushing into the cordon. Just as they were arguing, there was another loud bang.
He Qian raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was exactly twelve o'clock. The detonation point in the northwest corner had not been notified and had been detonated.
He Qian's hands were shaking slightly. He put them down and stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"mother!!"
Ye Xiuzhi grabbed Chu Heng's arm with such force that her nails dug into his flesh. Chu Heng said nothing. They both looked at the thick smoke rising from the northwest corner.
Ye Xiuzhi was shocked and scared. She couldn't imagine what would happen if Chu Song was on the mountain... If something happened to Chu Song, she would not be able to live either!
Ye Xiuzhi was so angry that she fainted on the spot.
"Mother!" Chu Heng quickly pressed her philtrum. After a while, Ye Xiuzhi slowly woke up and uttered a word with trembling lips, "Song..."
Chu Heng: "Okay, mother, don't worry! We will arrange for people to go up the mountain now. Xianxian is so smart, everything will be fine! You should rest well and don't make trouble."
In the end, reason prevailed, and Ye Xiuzhi remained silent and agreed.
It was already past twelve o'clock, and the fuses at the other three detonation points had been manually cut off, so they would not explode again. But even so, it was still very dangerous on the mountain.
Landslides, collapses and other situations may occur at any time.
There were many people watching the fun, but not many were really willing to go to the mountain with Chu Heng to look for people. Everyone was afraid of danger, and it was human instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm.
Fang Qingrong: "I'll go to the northwest corner, and you can take care of the rest."
Before Chu Heng could speak, Liang Jiayao grabbed his arm, his knuckles turning white from the force he applied. "Wait, I'll go with you."
Fang Qingrong nodded without saying anything more.
Chu Heng: "Okay, then you guys will take care of the northwest corner. I'll take the guys to the east ridge. Lao Zhou and Lao Zhang, you guys take the rope ladder to the west cliff."
"OK."
"no problem."
Several people acted separately.
On the other side, Chu Song stumbled forward on the rugged mountain road with Yingniu on his back. The blast overturned the half-human-high bushes, and from time to time, gravel fell like raindrops. Fortunately, she changed direction in time. If she had returned the same way she came, she would probably have been buried under the mountain.
Chu Song could feel Yingniu's hand tightening around her neck; she was afraid.
The mountain was sliding down with broken rocks, and the originally clear downhill road was blocked by the newly collapsed earth slope. Chu Song moved forward with difficulty.
"Yingniu."
"Um?"
"Did you pick any delicious wild berries?" Chu Song wanted to start a conversation to liven up the atmosphere.
Yingniu shook her head, realizing that Chu Song couldn't see her movements, "No..."
She whispered, "I tried to climb up the tree, but I lost my footing and fell into a crack. I couldn't get out. I shouted for a long time but no one heard me. I thought I was going to die."
Chu Song: "No, I didn't allow it. Even the King of Hell wouldn't dare take you away."
"I heard from my parents that when a person dies, the ghost will call their name. If they answer, they will be put into a gourd and taken to the underworld."
Chu Song thought, I don’t know which version this kid is listening to, he has misheard everything.
"So when I called you, you heard me but didn't respond. So you thought I was here to take your Bull-Head and Horse-Face?"
Yingniu smiled a little embarrassedly, forgetting the burning wounds on her body for a moment. She said with a little admiration and yearning, "Actually, I thought about you, and you came as expected."
"really?"
Yingniu: "Someone told me that. They all secretly called you the "Hero with the Carrying Pole" and said that they would come to you when they encountered difficulties or were bullied. You could beat the bad guys to pieces."
Chu Song: “…”
Whoever came up with this lousy name, come forward and she will definitely beat her up.
Chu Song thought about it carefully, and remembered that the first time she punished Chu Liangcai, she just picked up a carrying pole and boasted that she would be the guardian of Luhua Brigade from now on, and anyone who had difficulties could find her. She didn't expect that someone would really remember it.
"But the name of the Bantan Hero doesn't sound good. I still prefer to call you the Xianxian Hero."
Chu Song laughed: "Whatever you want to call me."
"Really?"
"Then if I encounter difficulties in the future, can I still come to you?"
"Can."
"Xianxian hero."
"Um."
"Xianxian hero!"
"Um!"
“…”
The search and rescue team split into several groups, but they kept missing Chu Song and never met him. The detonation point was in the northwest corner, and Chu Song didn't choose that route at all.
Fang Qingrong and Liang Jiayao searched most of the mountain but found nothing. You can imagine how they felt. They were worried about not finding anyone, but also worried about actually finding something...
No news, perhaps, is the best news. Liang Jiayao's eyes were red as he forced himself to comfort himself.
evening.
Seeing the search and rescue team come back empty-handed again with no news, Ye Xiuzhi's heart sank little by little. If everyone hadn't stopped her, she would have gone up the mountain to look for them by herself.
Xiang Baoshu supported the exhausted Ye Xiuzhi, feeling a tightness in her chest. Her eyes also turned red due to her influence. There was still no news about Chu Song, so he must have...
Xiang Baoshu couldn't accept it at all! How could the person who was smiling and joking with her this morning suddenly...
Ye Xiuzhi's eyes were swollen and she couldn't cry. Yingniu's parents were on the other side, also tired of crying and only numb. Ye Xiuzhi looked at them coldly. Not "retaliating" was her greatest kindness.
Chu Song.
Chu and Song.
Chu Xianxian.
Her most beloved and most cherished daughter, Ye Xiuzhi's heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife when she thought that she might be buried under a cold stone now.
"Hey, why are you crying? If I had come back a little later, wouldn't they have erected a tombstone for me?"
"Then you have to build a bigger one for me."
Ye Xiuzhi was stunned, goose bumps appeared all over her body, and she looked behind her in disbelief!
The group searched for her for a long time, but unexpectedly, she came back on her own without anyone noticing, with a little girl on her back.
Chu Song's lips curved, "Mom, are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
Surprise shit!!
Ye Xiuzhi didn't know what expression to show. She gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and when the slap actually landed, she touched the corner of Chu Song's eyes with heartache.
There was a little scratch on the skin.
"Are you hurt anywhere? Does it hurt? Are you hungry?"
Chu Song shook his head, "But..."
Ye Xiuzhi became nervous, "But what?"
"I'm kind of itchy."
Ye Xiuzhi was puzzled, "What?"
Chu Song put Yingniu down. After running all the way back, Chu Song was almost exhausted. She forced herself to walk to Yingniu's parents and met their hesitant eyes.
Then, Chu Song reached out and slapped the man expressionlessly.
"Never eaten wild berries in your life?"
The man opened his mouth and said, "I..."
Chu Song continued with the second slap, "If you want to eat it, why don't you pick it yourself?"
Then came the third slap. "Nothing to say. I just wanted to hit you."
The man said nothing and endured it silently.
It was the woman's turn. Chu Song raised his hand. Her eyes were red and swollen. Seeing this, she quickly closed her eyes. If it weren't for Chu Song, her daughter would never come back. Not to mention beating her, she would even be willing to kill her.
Chu Song raised his hand and slapped the man again.
"You take her place in this slap."
Ye Xiuzhi didn't stop him, but applauded. "He deserved to be beaten!" He had repeatedly emphasized that the mountain should be closed after bombing, and no one was allowed to go up the mountain casually, yet he still did something as rude as this.
It almost caused a big mistake!
If something happens to Chu Song, she will never forgive this family!
After Chu Song slapped her four times, she used too much force and her fingertips were trembling. She shook her hands and when she turned around, her vision suddenly went dark.
He Qian had stood behind her at some point, and with quick eyes and hands, he reached out to hold her shaking shoulders.
"careful."
"Go to the clinic to treat the wound first." He lowered his voice.
Chu Song was exhausted, but still felt unsatisfied.
She said weakly, "This is not my limit."
He Qian: “…I know.”
After all, the fingerprints on his face hadn't disappeared yet. He knew the feeling very well.
Yingniu suddenly tugged at the corner of Chu Song's clothes, raised her small face, and pointed at her hand, as if wanting to touch it but not daring to, "Sister Xianxian, your hand is injured."
The little girl was sharp-eyed and noticed that there was a tiny crack on Chu Song's knuckles, and drops of blood mixed with dust were flowing down his knuckles.
It was probably because he was scratched by the sharp edges of the rocks on the way down the mountain. He was so busy avoiding falling rocks that he didn't even notice it. Now he exerted too much force and the wound burst open.
Ye Xiuzhi was so distressed that she was about to cry again. If it weren't for the presence of outsiders, she would have almost ripped off Chu Song's clothes to check carefully, "Didn't you say you weren't injured? Is there anything else? Let me take a look, let me check if there are any injuries on your back..."
"No, no." Chu Song dodged backwards, feeling both amused and helpless. Suddenly, he felt a dull pain in his waist. It was too early to speak. He had hit a rock when he was overturned by the air wave.
At this moment, Chu Song felt the pain belatedly and his entire back and waist became stiff.
When sick, in pain, and in great sorrow, one always calls out to his parents.
Chu Song curled his lips and said, "Mom, it hurts! I'm going to die."
Ye Xiuzhi: "Bah, what's with all the talk about death? Stop saying such depressing things."
Poor Chu Song and poor Yingniu were rushed to the clinic. Luckily for them, the doctor on duty had not yet left work. Seeing the two of them coming over covered in dust, he joked.
"Hey, what's going on? Two clay dolls are coming."
Ye Xiuzhi sighed and recounted the entire story.
"He's really risking his life, even daring to rush into a pile of explosives."
Ye Xiuzhi: "Who said it wasn't? You're so bold."
Doctor Lin examined Chu Song and said, "Don't worry, these are just minor injuries. Young people have a good foundation, so they will be fine after a few days of rest."
"Really? No bones broken, right?"
"without."
"What about the internal organs? Could there be any hidden illness or internal injuries?"
“No, no!”
Chu Song: "Mother, you are cursing me now."
Ye Xiuzhi glared at her.
