Chapter 445 Miracle
The vultures circled in the sky, getting lower and lower.
Finally, it landed on the ground and rushed towards its bloodied prey.
Just as it was feasting and enjoying its meal, a rope was thrown out and looped around its neck.
The vulture let out a sharp cry, trying to spread its wings and fly away, but was suppressed by a group of people who rushed out.
“It’s you, it’s definitely you!” Zhang Lin tore at the white feathers on the vulture’s wings.
Excitement and loss of consciousness:
"Where is my brother? Tell me now! Bring him back to me!"
The vulture screamed: "Garri—"
The guard shouted, "Miss! The strip of cloth is tied in a knot that can't be tied back, and there are words on it!"
Lu Qingqing quickly grabbed the strip of cloth, on which was written a large character "安" (peace/safety).
It was written with a fire poker.
Yes, it's Ji Ruyan's handwriting!
"Ha...haha...alive."
Good heavens.
She truly experienced what it meant to be reborn from the dead, to be in hell and heaven.
Lu Qingqing burst into tears of joy.
Cheers erupted all around, and everyone hugged each other, laughing and crying at the same time.
"His Highness is alive!"
"His Highness is alive!"
"Your Highness is the true Son of Heaven! Long live Your Highness!"
"May Miss Lu live a thousand years!"
May Miss Lu live a thousand years.
In their ecstasy, no one cared what they were shouting.
With tears in his eyes, Zhang Lin smoothed the white feathers that the vulture had pulled up. "I'm sorry, Brother Vulture, I wronged you. Let's talk. Can you carry my brother out again?"
It's a camel, not a catch!
"Gali—Gali—"
Lu Qingqing reached out and tore off the hem of her skirt, then took out her bag, pulled out a homemade charcoal pencil, and wrote on the cloth. She found that the writing was too indistinct; if the vulture tore or rubbed it, or if it got wet, it might become illegible.
She turned around, grabbed Lu Yun's finger, bit it, and then wrote four large characters on the cloth:
Awaiting rescue!
Lu Yun felt no pain and grinned.
The others then shouted, "Girl, you should have said so earlier! We're covered in blood..."
Once released, the vulture soared into the sky without looking back.
Everyone started digging tunnels again, and this time, they were like donkeys on stimulants.
It's so energetic!
A few days later, Xue Lin and Huang Yuzhen arrived with gunpowder.
The tunnel excavation speed was greatly accelerated. Working day and night, with everyone taking turns to rush the work, a 100-meter-long passage was finally opened after half a month.
On the other side is the bottom of the cliff.
They rushed in.
Once inside, everyone was stunned.
Heads popped out from behind rocks, behind trees, and in the grass...
Like a little mouse peeking out to check for enemies, it is cautious and will immediately retreat and run away if anything seems amiss.
"What's going on? How come so many people are hiding here? Were they all captured by the dog-headed vultures?" Zhang Lin asked, his mouth agape.
Lu Yun exclaimed incredulously, "Impossible!"
Is there actually a way in? Did we just dig for nothing?
While everyone was still in a daze, the person who was hiding shouted:
"Is it...is it Lu Qingqing?"
"It's me, I'm Lu Qingqing."
Lu Qingqing stepped forward.
As soon as she spoke, all the little mice jumped out.
They were dressed in various ways, some in fine clothes, others in coarse linen, all quite strange.
There were men and women, ranging in age from twenty to thirty or forty, a total of more than a dozen. The fear on their faces had disappeared, replaced by the joy of seeing relatives.
"Junior Sister Qingqing, you really came to save us! We can get out of here!"
"Junior Sister Qingqing, we are your mother's disciples."
"There are still a lot of people inside waiting. What did you use to smash the mountain? It was terrifying."
“These days, we dare not sleep, fearing that the mountain will split open and bury us.”
"..."
Amidst their eager chatter, Lu Qingqing and Lu Yunquan finally understood, but they were also stunned.
I can hardly believe it; I'm afraid it's all just my imagination.
I kept telling myself that it must be true!
Heaven has finally been kind to the Lu family.
When they saw another group of people appear, the brother and sister's eyes immediately focused on the middle of them.
An old man grinning with his teeth wide open, his eyes almost invisible, and a middle-aged, beautiful woman with tears in her eyes, looking at them with a loving yet bewildered expression.
The floodgates of memory opened all at once.
Lu Qingqing and Lu Yun both thought they had forgotten what Shan Yueming looked like.
But when she stood alive and well in front of them, they suddenly remembered.
This is their mother!
Apart from a few more wrinkles, nothing has changed!
"Haha, these two kids are ecstatic."
The old man laughed heartily, then whispered in the woman's ear to boast, "Look, Yue Niang, you told me to raise our daughter well, and I've done a good job, haven't I? Our daughter is really amazing... right? Right? Right?" He looked around and asked.
"Yes, Grandmaster, Junior Sister looks just like Master. Junior Sister is amazing; she dug the road so quickly."
Everyone was incredibly excited.
From the moment they received the news that they were awaiting rescue, they kept hoping and hoping.
I thought it would take at least six months or a year, but I didn't expect that the road would be opened in less than a month!
They've been trapped for ten years, and they're finally able to get out!
This place has the elderly and children, it's just like a small village.
Lu Yun covered her face with a sob.
"Little sister, our parents aren't dead!"
Yes, he didn't die.
They have parents again.
"Father, you still managed to bring Mother back."
Lu Qingqing rushed over and hugged Shan Yueming.
Lu Yun rushed over and hugged Old Man Lu.
Behind the two, a slender young man with a veil covering his face stared intently at Lu Qingqing, shifted his toes slightly, and then stepped back.
Suddenly, a burly man rushed over and hugged him tightly.
"Brother—I've missed you so much—"
...
To be thrown from the abyss and still survive is an absolute miracle.
Lu Qingqing followed everyone further inside and, with Shan Yueming's explanation, learned about the situation over the years.
When she was thrown into the abyss, by sheer coincidence, she grabbed the wing of a vulture as she landed. Although she and the vulture still fell into a pile of bones, the impact was mitigated considerably.
Shan Yueming did not die; he survived.
Later, she wove a large net out of vines, covered it with a thick layer of dry grass, and hung it on a tree at the bottom of the cliff. This would cushion the fall if someone was thrown from it.
Unfortunately, those who were abandoned were mostly people who had died in failed experiments.
Many of them had their abdomens ripped open and their internal organs damaged.
Shan Yueming then sewed it up, repaired it, and buried it again.
Having done so many stitches, he has come to understand the intricacies of abdominal surgery.
Over the years, at least a thousand people have been thrown into the abyss, but she has only managed to save a mere thirty.
And unexpectedly, she ended up saving her husband.
Shan Yueming's eyes revealed pity and resentment. "I never expected Ouyang Bingyan to be so heartless and insane. It's a pity we are trapped here and unable to take revenge."
"Mother, my little sister has already wiped out the Holy Physician Sect," Lu Yun quickly reassured her.
“I know, Yan Zhidu told me. My daughter is really great, I’ve always said she’s better than those two brats.”
"Hey, Mom, my brother and I aren't so stupid anymore!"
Lu Qingqing turned around and glanced at the man who was silently following behind her.
The man lowered his head as if he were afraid of something.
The face covering slipped down slightly, revealing one corner of its uneven surface.
Oh, so you have a scar on your face and you're afraid she'll see it.
You idiot.
