Chapter 476: So Close
The pit was lit by the faint light of a flashlight.
Song Moting has woken up. He was much luckier than Jiang Xiaoxiao. Apart from some minor scratches, he was not seriously injured.
The same goes for Fan Jianguo.
Jiang Xiaoxiao enviously thought that God was on their side.
The question is what the odds are.
Three people can meet and fall into the pit together.
Arranged?
Or is it God's will?
When Song Moting saw Jiang Xiaoxiao, his brows were so furrowed that they could kill a fly.
"You shouldn't be here!"
He knew he couldn't keep it a secret for long, but Jiang Xiaoxiao actually dared to sneak up the mountain.
I knew she was bold, but the problem was that she was too bold.
This is a life-threatening adventure.
Why does he never care about his wife?
You are already a mother, why don’t you consider your child?
Jiang Xiaoxiao is not such an impulsive person, but she always makes principled mistakes under impulse.
And he refuses to change despite repeated warnings.
"I have to find my grandparents."
Jiang Xiaoxiao was very sorry. She knew she was very reckless and should have been calmer. However, as long as her family was involved, she would lose control.
In fact, it should be said that there is still a little bit of luck and reliance in my heart.
If it weren’t for the things in the space, she wouldn’t have dared to be so bold!
People become courageous because of pampering. Jiang Xiaoxiao was not like this in her previous life. There was no such thing as audacity.
You should be cautious.
Now he is just growing bolder and bolder, slowly developing an unparalleled spirit of courting death.
He lowered his head in shame, with a very sincere attitude. Even Song Moting was so sincere that he couldn't keep a straight face.
"That's fine. Xiaoxiao didn't mean it. She was just too worried about grandma and grandpa."
Fan Jianguo couldn't stand it. Jiang Xiaoxiao had the audacity to confront his elder brother for the sake of her grandma. It didn't seem like a big deal.
In their family, no one thinks there is anything wrong with what Jiang Xiaoxiao does, and Fan Jianguo is used to it.
Song Moting helplessly looked at Fan Jianguo who was eager to take care of his niece. Jiang Xiaoxiao was spoiled like this and became willful and reckless.
It's all a habit.
“Cough… cough…”
Jiang Xiaoxiao raised her fingers and listened attentively. She had heard this voice just now.
I just touched Fan Jianguo and interrupted the follow-up, and now I seem to hear it again.
"Xiao Xiao, what are you doing? Who else could be here except the three of us unlucky guys? You are just trying to scare your uncle! I am not you. Those ghosts and gods can't scare me."
"Cough cough... cough cough... help... "
A faint sound floated in the silent pit. Fan Jianguo jumped up suddenly, hit his head on the top of the pit, and fainted due to dizziness.
Song Moting held the flashlight tightly. The pit they were in was not actually just one, but a series of pits. This was why Jiang Xiaoxiao fell from above and was injured, but the height of the pit was only half a person's height.
There were even wider stone walls above their pit, and the tunnel they were in looked very long and deep.
It was dark and had a musty smell and a chilly air.
Jiang Xiaoxiao also shrank back and huddled close to Song Moting, tightly holding his arm. Doctors are materialists and have atheist ideas.
But she would also be afraid.
“Cough cough… cough cough…”
Someone was really coughing, and the sound was very faint. If Jiang Xiaoxiao hadn't reminded everyone, Song Moting wouldn't have been able to hear it.
"who?"
"Cough cough... cough cough... help..."
The sound seemed to come and go.
Song Moting held Jiang Xiaoxiao's hand tightly, motioning her to follow him, and kicked Fan Jianguo hard.
Fan Jianguo rubbed his head and climbed up. This time he was obviously more careful and did not hit his head again.
"who?"
The three people walked over and faced a wall, all three of them were stunned.
It's a dead end.
A weak voice came from the other side of the stone wall.
"Cough cough... cough cough... help..."
"Uncle, listen, is that grandma's voice?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao moved closer in surprise, as she could hear more clearly through the stone wall.
"Grandma, is that you? Are you with my grandpa?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao slapped the wall hard, her voice filled with tears.
Fan Jianguo lay on it.
"Mom, Dad, is that you? I'm Jianguo, Mom and Dad!"
"Ahem... ahem... Xiaoxiao, Jianguo, why are you here?"
The three people heard it clearly. It was Mrs. Fan’s voice, weak but familiar.
"Grandma, grandma, how are you and grandpa now?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao observed the stone wall. The stone wall was a wall. There were traces of excavation on the natural stone wall. It was obvious that this was the abandoned tunnel in the legend. The excavation stopped here. There was probably another abandoned tunnel on the opposite side.
But they are not the same.
If it wasn't a coincidence, they wouldn't have noticed there was anyone here if they fell in.
"Xiaoxiao, Jianguo, your grandpa is injured and has fainted. It has been day and night here, and I don't know how much time has passed. Your grandpa has not woken up. Don't mess around. This place is buried by rocks.
Be careful, there will be landslides."
Grandma's voice was so weak that it made people feel distressed.
It’s easy to imagine that the old man has not eaten or drunk anything for at least two days and two nights, and is suffering. His situation is very dangerous now.
"We know. Just wait! We will come to rescue you soon."
Fan Jianguo cried and shouted that his parents were over there, but they were separated by a wall and could not see anyone.
The one who is most worried is the old man.
Song Moting pulled Fan Jianguo and pointed to a place on the stone wall.
"I knocked on it just now. It's the weakest part because it's too high to reach. I brought a rope and an engineer shovel. You step on my shoulders and chisel it open."
"Grandma, don't get close to the stone wall. Stay away from it. It's best to hide behind the rocks. Be careful not to get hit by them."
Song Moting patted the wall and shouted.
"I... got it... Xiao Song... why are you here too?"
Old Mrs. Fan was panting and half dragging and half holding the old man until she finally moved him behind a pile of rocks.
Fan Jianguo looked at the engineer shovel in his hand, looking embarrassed, "You should go up, I'm afraid I won't know how to use it and will ruin it."
He didn't even know where the weak spot was, and he needed Song Moting's command if he went up. It would be inconvenient for Song Moting to watch from below, so why bother himself?
Song Moting was not polite either.
He took the engineer shovel and said, "Okay, uncle, I won't be polite."
Fan Jianguo clung to the wall, supporting himself with his hands and leaning his legs against it to form a bow shape.
Song Moting put one hand on his shoulder and stepped on it skillfully with both feet, and in one go he was on Fan Jianguo's shoulders.
"Uncle, stand up slowly."
Song Moting saw that it was already very close.
Fan Jianguo gritted his teeth and straightened his back, the veins on his neck bulged, and he stood up in one breath.
Song Moting tested the position with an engineer shovel.
Smash it down hard.
Stones flew.
Jiang Xiaoxiao bent down and squatted behind a rock, looking at the person working hard on the stone wall. His body was solid, as heavy and solid as a towering mountain, which made people feel at ease.
