Nono from another world

Chapter 222 The Question of Life and Death
Nuonuo was still holding on to a little bit of luck, wondering if she had read something wrong, but when she walked inside, she instantly despaired.

This cave is indeed only about one square meter in size, and there is nothing around it except gravel and stone walls. The only good news is that there may be a lot of rotten wood scattered in the cave, probably because it is close to the river.

These logs should have been washed down from the upper reaches and brought to this cave.Although it is a little damp, it should be no problem to grow a bunch.

In addition, this place is right next to the river, even if there is any smoke floating out, it will be covered by the water droplets flying around, hiding her perfectly.

Thinking of this, Nuonuo immediately felt very relieved.Although she couldn't go anywhere for the time being, with this pile of wood, at least she didn't have to worry about her injuries being aggravated by the cold.

And this place happened to be next to the river, as long as Lu Zhengfei and the others didn't jump off, it would be impossible to find this place.However, judging from their previous behavior of throwing stones, these people should not dare to jump off.

In this way, she can rest with peace of mind.It's just that there is no food or monsters here, it may take a long time for her injury to heal, and she can't disappear for too long, otherwise it will bring big troubles to Liuli and the others.

Thinking of this, Nuonuo secretly made up her mind that as soon as she could barely move her right hand, she would leave here immediately and find a chance to go back.

……

Nuonuo calmed down and thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt that his body temperature was gradually dropping, and some wounds on his body were oozing blood again, so he realized that he needed to meditate immediately to recover.So she didn't think about it anymore, and quickly picked up a few pieces of relatively dry wood, took out the flint and steel she had prepared in advance, lit a fire, and then sat beside the fire, closing her eyes.

Meanwhile, below the river.

In order to be able to catch Nuonuo, the river will set up an iron net every 50 meters.This kind of iron net has almost no gaps and is very strong, let alone a big living person like Nuonuo, even small fish can't get out.

However, Nuonuo's figure never appeared in front of everyone.

"Look for it! Even if he becomes fish food, find it for me!"

Lu Zhengfei's complexion has returned to normal, but some blood still oozes from the bandage on his chest, obviously his heart is not peaceful.

"This river goes straight down, leading to the county." A serious general hesitated for a while, and finally said, "We have set up dozens of iron nets along the road, and even sent special personnel to salvage them. But there is still no sign of the assassin."

"Could it be... that assassin has already climbed up the cliff and walked in another direction?"

Lu Zhengfei glanced at the general with an indescribably sinister look in his eyes, but after a long while, he still said, "Impossible, how could it be possible for her to be injured so badly and jump off such a high cliff?" Still have the strength to climb up from the rock? If that's the case, then I can only say admiration to her."

After saying this, Lu Zhengfei stopped talking. He knew that what the young general said was not unreasonable, but he didn't believe that Nuonuo still had the strength to climb up from the rock wall, and then took the opportunity to escape.If so, it would only make him doubt life and make him appear even more incompetent.

Thinking of this, an indescribable feeling of resentment and shame rose from Lu Zhengfei's heart, which made him cough immediately. Because of the running around for days and the injuries on his body, he even coughed up A mouthful of blood came.

"No matter what, she must appear in front of me."

Lu Zhengfei wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said again.

The young general nodded, then retreated silently.

Lu Zhengfei looked at the people running around in the distance, and fell into deep thought.

It stands to reason that with Nuonuo's injuries, she jumped into Liu Zhizhong from such a high place, no matter what, it was impossible for her to survive, but he still felt that Nuonuo was very likely to be alive.This feeling made Lu Zhengfei very depressed and troubled, but he couldn't resolve it. The only solution was to see Nuonuo's body or grab her.

……

Seven or eight hours later, Nuonuo opened his eyes.

Beside her, the flames had been extinguished, and the sky outside was gradually darkening.

After this period of rest, Nuonuo obviously felt much more relaxed.Although her injuries looked serious, they were only blood loss and fractures, so she wouldn't die.

In addition, she had absorbed three golden ginseng before, and some serious injuries on her body had already healed, which inadvertently relieved her pressure at this time.What's more, she still has a little residual medicinal power of golden ginseng in her body, which is also extremely helpful for her healing at this time.

At this time, a croaking sound came from Nuonuo's stomach.

Before coming here, in order not to leave any clues, Nuonuo left all the things on his body that would reveal his identity on the carriage. He only brought a handle, a pair of armguards and a pair of flint and steel, and nothing else. Didn't even bring a bite of dry food.

She has been on the run since last night, during which time she drank a few sips of spring water and hadn't eaten anything. She was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.At this time, after seven or eight hours of healing, her hunger became even stronger.

But there is nothing in this cave, even if Nuonuo wants to eat, there is nothing he can do.However, at this moment, she suddenly saw several figures flashing across the water outside the cave, accompanied by the sound of "slapping" water.

Nuonuo moved his body and walked to the entrance of the cave to have a look, only to find that there were a lot of fish outside at some point.These fish seemed to be blocked by something, and they all gathered in this place. From a distance, countless fish were churning around, which looked very spectacular.

Seeing this scene, Nuonuo was startled at first, and then realized that it was because of the blocking net set up downstream.

These people set up these interception nets originally to catch themselves, but they didn't know that their move just solved their urgent needs. If Lu Zhengfei and the others knew about this kind of thing, I don't know what they would think.

Thinking of this, Nuonuo couldn't help but smile, feeling very happy in his heart.

No more words, taking advantage of her physical strength recovered, Nuonuo jumped directly into the water, and with almost no effort, she grabbed two fat carp and put a few more in the hole, just in case. needs.

Right now, Nuonuo herself was hungry, and she didn't care about other things, so she picked up the fish and cooked it directly in the charcoal fire. After a while, the fish smelled fragrant.

As soon as the smell came out, Nuonuo immediately moved his index finger, ignoring the fact that the fish was still hot, he grabbed it and started to eat.Soon, a fish was eaten by her.

Having not eaten for two days, Nuonuo was like a starved ghost reincarnated, and he ate four or five fat fish in a row before stopping with satisfaction.

After the stomach was full, Nuonuo's body also warmed up. Except that the arms could not be lifted, some wounds began to itch slightly, which was a symbol of gradual healing.

Regarding this, Nuonuo didn't show any particularly happy expression. For her now, this kind of healing speed is still too slow.

However, she couldn't be impatient, because Lu Zhengfei and Smiling Buddha should still be searching for her outside. If she showed up at this time, she might be caught without doing anything.

So she could only wait patiently. As long as they didn't catch her, there would be no evidence. In this way, even if they had doubts about herself, they wouldn't do anything to them.

……

James stood by the window, staring at the wilderness in the distance. He had been watching for half an hour. Although there was no expression on his face, the people standing behind him were all silent, with faces on their faces. He broke out in a cold sweat, and what's more, he even started to tremble uncontrollably.

James was in a bad mood, firstly because of the incident with the second prince, and secondly because of the incident of Li Wei being killed.

Originally, these two things should not be compared, but Li Wei's death, for him at this time, is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, so his face is extremely cold and his heart is very angry.

He knew that the people in the Polar Branch had always been out of line, so the people from above to below were not very friendly to the Polar Branch, and it could even be said that they had a bad attitude.Therefore, he always thought that no matter how outrageous the polar branch was, they would not take these factors into consideration and do things that challenged other people's bottom line.

However, the facts gave him a loud slap in the face. The people from the polar branch really took great risks to kill Li Wei, and the most annoying thing is that they haven't caught the disappeared Nuonuo until now. , This is simply declaring their incompetence to the outside world!
In addition, there is still no news in the Black Forest until now. The combination of these two things made him feel even worse.

"Have you found anyone yet?" After a long time, James finally spoke, and the people behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

An older man silently stepped forward to Brightness, bowed to him, and said: "There is no news in the Black Forest yet, but according to the facts, the investigators should have reached the middle of the forest, otherwise, they It will send a signal."

"As for Andong County, the news just came that the assassin jumped off a cliff tens of meters high, and his life and death are unknown. Lu Zhengfei is leading people to salvage it everywhere."

"What?" There was a creaking sound from the wooden floor under James' feet. It was obvious that he was not very calm at the moment. "Are you sure that prisoner jumped off?"

"Lu Zhengfei saw it with his own eyes, so it can't be fake." The man bowed again, unable to hide the joy in his heart.In his opinion, if he jumped from such a high place, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured, and when everyone was searching around, the assassin couldn't get any help, he could only die for sure.

"Will you die if you fall?" James frowned slightly, and asked in a cold voice, "Don't forget, they walked out of the mine unharmed, and none of them were seriously injured. Do you think Nuonuo will die?"

Hearing this, the man who spoke suddenly left a few drops of cold sweat on his face, he really didn't think of this.For a long time, he had a very heavy prejudice against the people in the Polar Branch. He always felt that the Polar Branch was just a crane tail, so he completely ignored the incident in Xi'an.When he thought about it at this moment, he realized that the people in the polar branch were indeed different from what he had imagined. These underage girls even performed better than some senior investigators in their branch in this matter. .

"Send the news to Andong County, and let Liuli and Nim take a look." James glanced at the people in the room, "Let them know that the consequences of this incident are much more serious than they imagined .”

"Yes!"

"As for the Black Forest, if there is no news in half a day, then tell the S-rank investigators who are staying in the city that we may have to go to the Black Forest to have a look..."

James sighed slightly, a look of worry appeared on his face, and at the same time he was even more depressed.

At this moment, he not only thought of the innovator who freely entered and exited the black forest, but also thought of the man who appeared at the banquet to make trouble, and some people behind him.

These people just showed up in a hurry, and then disappeared immediately, as if telling themselves deliberately that they came to the west.Doing so is really annoying.But he couldn't do anything about it. No matter how much he sent people to search, and even blocked the entire Dong'an District, he still couldn't find any traces of these people.Coupled with the disappearance of the second prince, James was even more restless.

"The humble job will be done immediately!"

Hearing this and feeling the determination and helplessness in James' words, everyone in the room couldn't help being stunned, vaguely aware that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.But everyone knows that this is not something they can ask, so everyone chose to remain silent and just responded loudly.

……

"Is this the result you want?" Dusan threw the bamboo tube in his hand on the table, and sneered at Liuli and Nim who were opposite him.

Hearing this, Liuli raised her eyebrows slightly, then picked up the bamboo tube and began to read carefully. Half a second later, her expression flickered slightly, but her eyes remained unchanged.Nim, who was beside her, kept a blank expression all the time, and seemed not to be affected by this incident.

Seeing that the two people's reactions were so flat, Dushan couldn't help being a little surprised, but he calmed down quickly, and continued to sneer: "Do you know how high the cliff is? The distance is tens of meters, let alone no one Know how deep the pool below is and whether there are any rocks in it. If you jump down from such a high place, even if you don't die, you may be seriously injured. What's more, according to the news from the front, Nuonuo is close to losing strength. Under the circumstances, is it possible for her to survive?"

"So?" Liuli looked up at Dushang, her tone was colder than before, "What do you want to say? Do you want to tell us not to be obsessed with it anymore? Or do you want to use this kind of thing to influence the relationship between the two of us?" Emotions? Don’t forget, we don’t know the assassin at all, and whether he is dead or alive has nothing to do with us.”

Dushang didn't expect Liuli to say something like this, he was speechless for a while, but half a second later, the anger in his heart took over all his emotions, he really couldn't understand, these two people heard the news Finally, why were they able to remain absolutely calm? Could it be that they really didn't care about Nuonuo's life at all?

Thinking of this, Dusan couldn't help shouting angrily: "I don't know?! How dare you say such a thing? Now all the clues are pointing to Nuonuo. Do you think that if you refuse to admit it, you can get out of the relationship? Don't forget , even if she dies, we will fish out her body, then, I see what you have to say!"
