You are back

Chapter 9 Is it human

The difficulty of walking on the mountain road far exceeded Li Yan's imagination.There are a few places that are slippery and dangerous, and the back of crucian carp is countless times larger than that of Huangshan Mountain. There are stone pillars and iron chains on both sides of the back of crucian carp, but there is nothing here.

Chen Yanfeng walked past in a leisurely way, and Li Yan squatted low, crawling forward little by little with his hands and feet, his eyes fixed on the half-foot-wide ridge in front of him, not daring to squint to the side, for she was afraid that a glance would make her feel sick. Terrified, he dared not move again.

From time to time, long sky plank roads appear between the ridges. These plank roads are sometimes a dead tree lying horizontally, and sometimes they are a protruding stone not far away.Sometimes Chen Yanfeng jumped over, sometimes he tapped his toes, as if he were dancing. Every time Li Yan stepped down, he felt like he was going to fall and die...

All Li Yan's mind was devoted to climbing and being afraid. When was it, whether he was hungry or not, whether he was tired or not... he couldn't take care of all of them.

Li Yan stretched out his arms, moved inch by inch over a huge tree trunk covered with moss, moved from one side of the cliff to the other side of the cliff, stood firm, beat his stiff and trembling legs a few times, moved a few steps, saw Although the front is still simple and barren, but compared to the road that has already been walked, it is simply a flat square of stone steps, and then along the long steps, you can see a flat valley full of wild flowers and a clear lake next to it. The ding-dong stream almost wailed with excitement.

Li Yan and Yushu moved down the steps to the lakeside. Chen Yanfeng had already lit a fire and was skewering two one-foot-long fat fish on wooden sticks. The oil was sizzling as they roasted. A copper kettle conjured from somewhere was hung over the fire, and the water was already boiling.

"Is there any tea? Give it to me." Seeing the two move over, Chen Yanfeng happily extended his hand to Yushu.

Yushu helped Li Yan sit down first, and actually took out a bag of tea leaves and handed it to Chen Yanfeng. Chen Yanfeng didn't take it, but pointed his finger at her to make tea, "Here is the pot. Wait ten breaths after the water falls." Chen Yanfeng ordered Yushu. , turned to look at Li Yan, with a smile that seemed to be both admiration and surprise, "I didn't expect you to survive."

"What?" Li Yan could hardly believe his ears, "What did you say? Say it again!"

"I mean, I didn't expect you to come down alive, girl from the Li family, it's really not easy." Chen Yanfeng really said it again, with a brisk tone.

Li Yan dug his ear a few times, and patted it a few more times, "You said just now that you didn't expect me to survive. What do you mean by that? When you took me and Yushu down the mountain, you thought we were sure Did he fall to death on the way?"

"That's right, you've seen how dangerous that road is. People like you have a narrow escape, you..."

"Escape from death! Did you intend to watch us fall to death when you took us down the mountain?" Before Chen Yanfeng could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Yan's scream.

Chen Yanfeng leaned back and stared at Li Yan, "What's your name? Isn't it dangerous when you go up the mountain?"

"Going up the mountain..." Li Yan got stuck all of a sudden. Could it be the same way going up the mountain?

"Shao Yu escaped the sentry trap and climbed up the mountain. That section of the Baizhang cliff is not much more dangerous than today's road? By the way, you climbed that section of the cliff by yourself? That section..."

"I'm thirsty!" Li Yan interrupted Chen Yanfeng and reached out to pick up the silver cup that had just been filled with tea. As soon as he picked it up, his hand was too hot and he dropped the cup to the ground.

Chen Yanfeng laughed loudly, "You are stupid, you didn't see that it was freshly brewed tea, boiling water! Is it scalding?"

"Miss, are you burnt? It's all my fault!" Yushu rushed forward.

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Yan waved his hands, feeling out of breath and almost bursting into tears.

Affected and frightened, coupled with suffocation, Li Yan didn't eat a bite of the two half raw and half burnt fish that Chen Yanfeng grilled, and only drank tea one cup after another.

Chen Yanfeng finished eating a piece of fish with disgust, stood up, stretched, took out a small bag from his body, and sprinkled the powder in the bag around the three people and the fire.

"You crawled too slowly. We can only spend one night here today. It's all because of you. I hate sleeping in the open air the most!" Chen Yanfeng lay down next to the fire, crossed his legs and swayed leisurely.

"What if I can't crawl over here?" Li Yan stared at Chen Yanfeng, and asked with teeth staggered slightly. She was holding back her anger, and if she didn't burst out, she would definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

"Huh? What do you want to say? You have already crawled over." Chen Yanfeng shook his legs freely.

"I mean, what if I fail to climb over and fall and die? What will you do?"

"What should I do?" Chen Yanfeng raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yan in amusement and surprise, "What can I do? Collect the body for you? That's impossible! There are cliffs on both sides, don't say I can't get down. , even if I go down and find you, you should have been eaten clean by wild beasts long ago. This is Cloudy Point, do you think this is your back garden? Didn’t you see that I just spread insect repellent powder? There are also beast repellents "Powder, I have spread it before you came down. In fact, there is nothing wrong with being eaten by wild beasts. You eat them when you are alive, and they eat you when you are dead, and the cycle repeats. This is the way of heaven."

Li Yan almost lost his temper when he heard this, is this still a person?

"What if... what if I can't climb halfway through the climb? You..." Li Yan's voice trembled a little.

"That would be even worse." Chen Yanfeng curled his lips with some reluctance, "Either he will be eaten alive by wild beasts, or he will die from freezing and starving. It would be better to fall down, at least he can die happily..."

"Are you still human? In your eyes, I am not human?" Li Yan poured a glass of water on Chen Yanfeng in anger. "Watch others die in front of you, and you just watch?"

"Life or death is up to you. You deserve to be saved by me. You are destined to die. If I save you, it is against the will of heaven." Chen Yanfeng sat up and shook the water from his clothes. Li Li's face was slanted with disgust and his face was blue. rock.

"Bah!" Li Yan couldn't help it, and spat on Chen Yanfeng's face, "Do your best to obey the destiny. If you can't save him, that's destiny!"

Chen Yanfeng was spat on by Li Yan, sat up angrily, "You shrew!"
