Chapter 176 Hands outstretched in the dark

When the second uncle saw my appearance, he hurriedly asked, "Big nephew, what's wrong with you? His face suddenly became so ugly."

I took a deep breath and said, "I don't know, it's a little uncomfortable."

Uncle Er frowned, "Discomfortable? When did it start?"

I pointed to the climbing rope, "It was when I looked down just now."

"Do you have acrophobia?"

I shook my head, "I have never seen anything like that."

The second uncle patted my shoulder, "You may be too nervous, relax, it's okay!"

Everyone in the Yuan family slid down the rope one by one, and even Tang Jianan, who was still foolish, was kicked by Yuanxiao and rushed down. At this time, only three people were left on the platform, including me, Yuanxiao and second uncle.

The second uncle tried the temperature on my forehead, "How can I persist?"

Yuanxiao grabbed the mountaineering rope, "It's okay, Zhuoran, please relax, I'll go first. If you can't hold on, I'll follow you down!"

I nodded and signaled that Lantern Festival would leave first.

I sat on the ground and drank a sip of water, then shook my head vigorously to relax my emotions. Suddenly, I heard a slight footsteps coming from somewhere above. I was suddenly stunned and looked up at the top. Uncle II was startled by my movements, "What's wrong with you?"

I frowned and listened again. The slight footsteps suddenly disappeared. Uncle II pushed me, "Big nephew, are you okay? Don't scare me!"

I looked at my second uncle and asked softly: "Uncle II, have you heard anything?"

Uncle Er shook his head slightly, and I asked again: "It's the sound of footsteps! Have you heard it?" Uncle Er shook his head again.

I rubbed my head hard, "It seems that I really heard it wrong." I found that since I was shocked by the sound of the little rice dumpling in Gong Temple, my emotions have often been unable to control myself. I don't know why, maybe it was because my mental damage was also caused. I cursed in my heart, "Oh, I'm not going to catch anything else, but I'm making myself nervous!"

I cursed from my heart, "Go to his uncle, do whatever you want!" Then I stood up and said to my second uncle, "Second uncle, let's go!"

Uncle Er looked at me with a little hesitation, "Are you really okay?" I made a ok gesture to him. Uncle Er nodded and said, "Okay, you will follow me later!" As he said that, he took the lead in sliding down the mountain climbing rope.

I stuck my hand out and grabbed the climbing rope. Just as I was about to set off, I suddenly heard the slight footsteps again. I immediately looked up and looked around, but I found nothing. I couldn't help but wonder if something was wrong with my spirit.

I looked at the empty platform and the darkness around me, and suddenly felt that this place could not be kept for a long time. I quickly grabbed the mountain rope and slid down quickly.

My second uncle below saw that I had climbed onto the rope as well, so he said to me: "Big nephew, follow me, don't be nervous. If you have any questions, I will come to help you!"

Seeing my second uncle waiting below me make me feel guilty and uneasy. So I pretended to be relaxed and smiled at him, "Uncle II, you go first, I can catch up with you in a moment!"

The second uncle nodded, smiled, and slowly entered the darkness below.

I calmed down and my emotions became slightly stable. But the uneasiness in my heart became stronger and stronger. I took a deep breath and began to slowly slide down, but after walking for a while, the slight footsteps sounded again. I felt like I was wrong, so I closed my eyes and held my breath to concentrate. This time I clearly captured the sound, and I was sure that this was definitely not my illusion.

At the same time, I also locked the direction of the sound, and it was just above my head. I suddenly turned on the flashlight and shone it on, but was surprised to see a black shadow swaying past the edge of the platform above my head.

I was immediately shocked and asked in a deep voice: "Who! Who is there!!" At the same time, I wrapped one foot around the hiking rope so that I could hold the weight of my body. Then I held the hiking rope and flashlight with one hand, while the other hand pulled out the pistol from my waist and aimed at the upper position.

But at this time, I found that the sound just now disappeared again and the black shadow did not appear. While I was hesitating whether to climb up again to see, I suddenly reached out from the edge of the platform and grabbed the climbing rope.

This sudden situation surprised me, but after a moment of panic, I decided to raise my gun and shoot immediately. However, the climbing rope grabbed by the hand kept shaking, and I couldn't aim again, so I could only fire two shots, but they all missed. I knew there were not many bullets in my gun, so I stopped after only two shots.

Hearing my gunshots, the second uncle immediately shouted loudly below: "Zhuoran, what happened!!"

I was about to answer, but I was frightened to see that the hand grabbed the climbing rope while holding a knife in the other hand and cutting it towards the climbing rope.

When I saw it, I was immediately scared to death. In a panic, I fired two more shots and shouted loudly at the bottom of me: "Quick!! Slide down quickly!! The rope is about to break!!!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt the rope in my hand suddenly loose! I knew that the mountaineering rope was cut, and my whole body fell down with the rope. My hands subconsciously grabbed around. In a panic, I felt like I suddenly hit something. I subconsciously climbed on it with both hands.

I felt that this place should be a bulge on the broken stone steps below, which was really a blessing. But I found that under my right rib, after being hit just now, it became unbearable pain.

At this time, I saw a flashlight shaking below myself, and the sound of Lantern Festival came from below, "Zhuoran!! Where are you?"

I opened my mouth and wanted to answer, but as soon as I took a breath, I felt a sharp pain under my ribs. I was sore in my mouth and couldn't shout it out. At this time, my arms were already a little sore, and I probably couldn't hold on to it anymore. I endured the severe pain, used both hands, turned my body upwards, and rolled to the top of the stone steps. At the same time, a heart-wrenching pain came from the ribs on my right side. I couldn't help but scream!

When everyone in Lantern Festival heard my voice, they hurriedly gathered at the location below me: "Zhuoran!! How are you? Where are you?"

I lay in pain on the stone steps, and every breath I would pull the wound and hurt. I didn't know where the gun in my hand was thrown, but fortunately the flashlight was still hanging on my wrist. I picked up the flashlight and shook it down, telling them where I was.

Yuanxiao immediately found me, "Hey, here is there!!" Yuanxiao tried her best to get close to my position, "Zhuoran, how are you?" I looked up at him hard, and when he saw my expression, he roughly understood my situation, "Are you injured? Don't move, we will find a way to go up and save you now!"

I noticed that the place where Yuanxiao and the others stood seemed to have reached the bottom, and the position I am now at should be on the third floor of the stone steps above the bottom, about twenty meters away from the bottom.

I saw my second uncle standing below safely, which made me feel a little relieved. I wanted to remind someone to make trouble, but the pain under my ribs made me almost unable to make a sound. I had to lie on the ground waiting for rescue.

I don’t know how they discussed it, but after a while, two people climbed up and approached me. When I opened my eyes, I saw that it was Wen Mo and the fourth son of Tian.

Tian Laosi asked me what I felt now, and I pointed to the ribs on my right side, "This, it hurts so much here!!"

Tian Laosi looked up and looked up, then said, "It seems that he had injured his ribs. We will get you down first and then find a way to treat you." So he and Wen Mo used a rope to tie my shoulders, waist and knees with ropes, and then lifted me up flat and slowly put them down from one side of the stone steps.

During the shaking of the rope, I felt a burst of unbearable pain. I gritted my teeth and didn't say a word. I didn't want others to think that I was a spoiled and useless person.

When I was caught by my second uncle and others below and placed it on the ground, my hair was almost wet with sweat oozing out of the pain. The team doctor came over quickly. After he checked me, he couldn't help but frown, "The situation is not very good, it should be that my ribs are broken!"

I must have felt a chill in my heart. I understand that in such a place, there is basically no way to treat this kind of injury, and I am afraid I can only rely on endurance!

Uncle Er asked anxiously: "What should I do? Can he continue to leave?"

The team doctor smiled bitterly, "If you can walk in such a place, you have to walk!" As he said that, he gently pressed my wound again. As soon as his hand touched my ribs, I immediately screamed in pain.

The team doctor nodded, "I'll give him a simple chest fixation, and take some painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Fortunately, the impact of the ribs is not too serious, and the damaged ribs have not moved, so don't do more big moves next, hoping to stick to the ground."

I couldn't help but sigh. I was afraid that I would be useless, but now it has become a burden. I looked at Tang Jianan who was squatting beside me and couldn't help but smile bitterly. I was not even as good as a fool.

Uncle Er and Yuanxiao helped me aside and sat down. Due to the limited materials in our hands, the team doctor could only use bandages and backpack straps to make a simple breast fixing strap, and then asked me to take anti-inflammatory and painkillers.

After the team doctor finished handling the matter, the second uncle asked, "Big nephew, what was going on above just now? Why did the rope suddenly break?"
