Chapter 50: Fall
“Ouch—”
A long howl.
The golden eagle swooped down in a straight line, flapping its wings rapidly towards Chu Qiao.
The golden eagle can reach speeds of 300 kilometers per hour, and the impact force is not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Chu Qiao nimbly kicked his left foot, brushing past the golden eagle's head and dodging to the right.
The golden eagle braked suddenly at the edge of the cliff, and its sharp beak scraped against the cliff, causing the golden eagle to feel pain.
The failure of this attack made it even more angry. After a loud roar, another wave of attack came immediately.
It aimed its mouth at Chu Qiao's eyes and used the method it used to deal with wolves.
Chu Qiao couldn't move his hands, so he kicked the cliff with his feet, and his body flew into the air, barely dodging it.
The most powerful feature of the golden eagle is its beak. She flew into the air.
Chu Qiao looked down and saw that the bottom of the cliff was still more than 30 meters away. She took advantage of this opportunity to speed down, hoping to reach the bottom of the cliff before the golden eagle launched its next attack.
After descending about six or seven meters, the golden eagle flapped its wings and flew towards Chu Qiao. This time, it changed its target and pointed directly at Chu Qiao's hand holding the rope.
“Ahhhhhhh…”
“No…”
Chu Qiao felt the approach of the golden eagle behind him, and Feng Ge's hurried voice also came.
"He's going to peck your hand."
Chu Qiao's hands cannot be loosened. Once they are loosened, the knot will automatically untie. This is her biggest weakness.
Chu Qiao frowned, and suddenly jumped up, with his body at right angles to the cliff, and kicked towards the golden eagle with his legs bent.
The attacks of one man and one bird arrived at the same time.
"Hmm..." Chu Qiao let out a muffled groan, and felt a tearing pain in his arm. At the same time, Jin Ying was kicked in the abdomen by Chu Qiao, and both were injured.
Chu Qiao's arm was hit hard. The pain was not a big deal. The key was that her arm, which was already tired and tense, finally ran out of strength, and her hand and the rope loosened.
Chu Qiao descended rapidly along the cliff.
The golden eagle, with a miserable cry, also fell into the cliff, its life or death unknown.
"Where's Master Chu?"
"It's over, Master Chu fell down?"
The live broadcast room suddenly became quiet and no one knew how to react.
Chu Qiao's free fall was so fast that the drone couldn't keep up for a while. All that could be seen in the picture was the constantly moving cliff, which meant that the drone was also looking for Chu Qiao.
…………
"drop--"
"drop--"
"drop--"
"Host, please answer."
The dripping sound in his head woke up the unconscious Chu Qiao.
System: "Host, please speak so that the drone can locate the target."
Chu Qiao endured the severe headache and the inability to move his body. He barely opened his eyes, half-opened his mouth, and uttered a hoarse voice: "Here."
The drone descended rapidly and arrived next to a tree between the cliffs.
"Master Chu is there."
"Master Chu is stuck."
"I didn't fall, thank God."
It turned out that the loose rope followed Chu Qiao down all the way until it encountered an ancient tree on the cliff. The rope was wrapped around the ancient tree, and the other end was tied around Chu Qiao's waist, which prevented Chu Qiao from falling further.
At a height of more than 20 meters, no matter how skilled Chu Qiao was, he would at least be crippled if not killed.
"Master Chu, how are you?"
"Master Chu's arm is bleeding."
"My hands were covered in blood."
The live broadcast room suddenly became chaotic, with voice messages from Brother Feng and President Pan ringing from time to time.
Panpan was still rational: "Chu Qiao, don't move. If you move, you might fall down."
Chu Qiao's waist was so painful from being strangled, not to mention her arms and hands. Her body seemed to be out of her control and was shaking in the air.
But when pain is shared among a group of people, it becomes the pain of a group of people.
She looked up and grinned at the drone.
"Don't be so discouraged. Chu Qiao's mother has started a lesson: The spirit of the stone has no feathers, so why should I be afraid of danger and hardship? I haven't given up yet. Let me catch my breath."
After she finished speaking, she rested for a few minutes, biting her lower lip, and stretched out her uninjured arm. She pulled the rope and found it was quite sturdy.
Chu Qiao used all his strength to shake his body, making himself swing back and forth like a human swing.
The rope swung wider and wider, and every time it swung, netizens in front of the screen broke out in a cold sweat.
But everyone understood her idea, she wanted to swing onto that tree.
Chu Qiao was getting closer and closer to the tree trunk.
This time, when Chu Qiao swung over, his legs were straight and his arms were open.
With a "bang", the sound of Chu Qiao colliding with the tree trunk was heard.
Chu Qiao endured the muscle pain caused by the collision and hugged the roots of the tree.
She did not stop, and like a gibbon, she retracted the rope little by little and climbed up the tree. Only then did the people in the live broadcast room feel relieved.
The wound on Chu Qiao's arm was still bleeding. His sleeve was waterproof, and the blood flowed down his clothes, making him look even more horrible.
She used a knife to cut a piece of the rope and tied it around her arm near her heart, which temporarily stopped the bleeding.
But this is not a solution. It won't be long before the hand becomes numb, and if it goes on for even longer, the arm will become necrotic.
Chu Qiao put all the remaining rabbit meat into his mouth, took a sip of water and chewed it.
"This tree is more than ten meters from the bottom of the cliff. I'll tie a knot using the same method as before and send myself down."
"Master Chu, are you crazy?"
"You just failed, and you want to try again?"
"It seems that this golden eagle failed to wake Master Chu up."
"Is the golden eagle poisonous? Is Master Chu poisoned and hallucinating?"
Mr. Chu drank water while shaking his head, and his cheeks swayed, which was inexplicably funny.
"I did miscalculate just now. It's not that high this time. It's fine."
After she finished speaking, she put away the water cup, and the corners of her mouth that were just smiling and joking with everyone suddenly disappeared, and her eyes became dark and deep.
She tied a similar knot around the tree trunk and lowered herself down bit by bit.
This time Chu Qiao's journey went smoothly. There was no obstruction from the snow, and in less than five minutes, he had reached the bottom of the cliff.
Although it is called the bottom of the cliff, it is actually not the foot of the mountain. It is just a protruding, relatively wide platform. If you want to go down the mountain, you need to continue walking down the cliff.
The platform looked like it was carved by God with a knife. It was flat but empty, without even a tree.
Chu Qiao lay flat on the platform, gasping for breath with her eyes closed. Her energy was exhausted and she had no supplies. She was a little worried about the road ahead.
The sunlight shone on Chu Qiao's face, as if giving her strength.
Chu Qiao lay there for a full half hour before he opened his eyes.
"Master Chu finally woke up."
"We watched the live broadcast for half an hour and fell asleep. Mr. Chu is really leisurely."
"Not necessarily, Master Chu, your...neck..."
"Master Chu, what the hell is that on your neck?"
"Still moving."
Chu Qiao touched his neck and felt that his palm was pressing down on a small, struggling insect. He looked at his body and saw many small black insects crawling on his clothes.
Chu Qiao tightened his fingers, pinched a bug, and placed it in front of his eyes. In the palm of his hand, a blue-black bug as big as a fingernail was fluttering its wings.
