Chapter 210
Chapter 211
Everything happened so fast that Sheng Xi didn't have time to react. The wind was so loud in her ears that she didn't hear a single syllable that Sheng Nan blurted out because of her extreme anxiety.

Watching Sheng Xi fall off the cliff, Sheng Nan just wanted to jump down with her, but at the last moment, Wangcai bit her clothes tightly.

After such a meal, Sheng Nan failed to fall freely like Sheng Xi.

"Ah!" Sheng Nan turned around and yelled at Wangcai. Unfortunately, the little guy couldn't understand what he was saying. He just straightened his back and bit the corner of his clothes and wouldn't let go.

When Sheng Nan saw this, he could only throw it away with all his strength. Wangcai was still young after all, so he was thrown away and let out a scream of "ouch".

But Sheng Nan also calmed down because of this. He stared at the direction where Sheng Xi fell with wide eyes, and the words she left behind, "Go home and wait for me," filled his ears.

There was an echo in the valley, and this sentence played repeatedly in Sheng Nan's ears like a spell.

He wanted to throw these words away, but he didn't dare, because these were the last words Sheng Xi left for him.

For the first time, Sheng Nan hated herself for being speechless and unable to say that name.I hate myself for being too weak and unable to protect Sheng Xi.

He pursed his lips tightly, his body was shaking uncontrollably, his eyes were so red that they seemed to be bleeding, and a gust of mountain wind seemed to shake his stiff nerves.Suddenly, he jumped up and looked around, as if trying to find a way to get down.

However, he had already gone all the way with Sheng Xi before. If there really was a shortcut, then Sheng Xi would not take that risk.

Furthermore, the skylight had dimmed at this time, and the line of sight was getting shorter and shorter.

Sheng Nan was worried that he had gone too far and if Sheng Xi came back and couldn't find him, he hurried back to the place before it got completely dark.

The mountain breeze was still there, but Sheng Xi still didn't appear.

Sheng Nan looked at the bottomless valley and finally chose to stay here.

Tears rolled back and forth in my eyes several times, but they failed to fall.

If so, if Sheng Xi doesn't come back at dawn tomorrow, then he will listen to Sheng Xi and go home to wait for her.

Sheng Xi said that she is a person that even God does not want to see, and God does not want to accept her, so she will definitely come back safely!
Don’t talk about Sheng Nan, just Sheng Xi.

The moment she fell, she could only rely on instinct to swing the rope and insert the dagger into the mountain wall again, but she only had a buffer before falling again.

Fortunately, after smashing through a branch, she heard the clearer sound of water below her. The rope was thrown up again and was able to lock a few branches. However, because the branches were overwhelmed, they broke with a "click" and Sheng Xi fell down. Into the water.

The current was so strong that as soon as Sheng Xi raised her head, she was knocked into the water again by a wave.

After taking several deep gulps of water, Sheng Xi grabbed the branch that she had pulled down before, and floated on the river with a dangerous degree.

As far as her eyes could see, she found that the river was all around her. The few big trees she had seen before had disappeared. It seemed that she had been swept far away.

Sheng Xi wanted to go ashore, but the current was too fast for her to struggle.

The river water in March is cold and biting.Sheng Xi knew that she could no longer soak in the water. At the last moment when the skylight completely disappeared, she saw the opportunity and tied a rope to a tree growing from the cliff.

After struggling hard, Sheng Xi finally came out of the water and lay on the crooked-neck tree, as tired as a dead dog.

"It's... so damn exciting!" Sheng Xi complained crazily in her heart.

Sure enough, the power of nature should never be underestimated. If we relax, our lives will be swallowed up in the blink of an eye.

After resting and having a cup of tea, Sheng Xi stood up against the cliff.The black silhouette on the opposite side was vague, swaying in the wind like a ghost, while her left and right sides were empty, with nothing.Sheng Xi was a little depressed. Although she was on shore, she was too single and it was embarrassing.

Sheng Xi was wavering on whether to climb the rock or not. Finally, a cold wind blew by, forcing her to pick up a dagger and face the difficulty.

The cliffs close to the water are not so easy to climb. In addition to being wet, there are also moss moistened by the river water.This side of the mountain wall is shaded and becomes a natural petri dish for moss.

After Sheng Xi slipped a few times, she finally escaped from the danger, but when she looked up at the seemingly invisible edge of the cliff top, she couldn't help but grin.

God probably felt bad for her, so after just a few days of comfortable life, he changed the mode to difficult level.

Sheng Xi took a deep breath, lay down on the cliff and relaxed for a while, before continuing to climb up.

Fortunately, the gaping dagger is sharper than any axe. It can make a hole with just one chisel, but it would be too laborious.

The night wind blew away the dark clouds, and the moonlight overhead took the opportunity to shine, vaguely illuminating the road ahead.

Sheng Xi replenished some food on the way, and climbed like this for a while, resting for a while. He didn't know how long he climbed, but he could finally see a little bit of the tail on the top of the cliff.

Joy was about to pop up on her lips when she suddenly heard a loud sound coming from the cliff. Even though Sheng Xi didn't believe in ghosts and gods, she was also startled by the sound.

Is the mountain about to collapse?The shock was so strong!
Sheng Xi lay motionless, holding the dagger tightly in his right hand and pressing his ear against the cliff, trying to listen carefully.

A few breaths later, another heavy sound no weaker than the previous one came from inside the mountain wall, which made Sheng Xi's ears ring and almost made her let go of the dagger.

Although it was dangerous, Sheng Xi figured out something. This was not an earthquake, but more like the sound of gunpowder exploding.It's just that compared to modern high-concentration explosives, the gunpowder here seems to be adulterated.

But its power cannot be underestimated.

Sheng Xi intuitively felt that what she would face after climbing up would not be a good situation, because she knew that the control of gunpowder in this era was very strict, the court controlled it, and its own production was insufficient, so it would not be used easily.

However, the current situation did not allow her to change her route, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue climbing at night bit by bit.

A gust of wind blew by, causing Sheng Xi's head to finally wake up.She used all her strength to climb up the last section of the mountain wall. When she reached the shore, she lay flat on the ground, unable to exert any strength.

There were only two explosions, and then everything calmed down. The surrounding area was so quiet that not even a trace of insects could be heard.

Sheng Xi thought that if she could, she would really like to sleep directly with the sky as her bed and the earth as her bed, because she was too tired.

But no, she promised the children that she would be back in five days.

After this incident, there was no guarantee that she would be able to return on time in five days, but if she could shorten it by even one second, she would still be willing.

Sheng Xi took out water and food from the space, finished eating and rested for two quarters of an hour. Then she stood up, and under the moonlight, she walked upstream along the rushing river.

However, this journey is destined to be uneventful.

Sheng Xi had only been walking for more than ten minutes when there was a commotion deep in the forest. A few relatively clear sounds came through, but Sheng Xi couldn't help but frown.

"Quick! Get those people! Damn it, don't let them get away!"
