Chapter 188 The Moment of Life and Death (Continued)
In this flash of lightning, Ning Xiaofan pulled his arm toward the rope, and instantly clamped the rope inside his arm.
Bah la la
Hearing a friction sound, Ning Xiaofan felt a burning pain on the inside of his arms. With his weight and height difference, even the ropes around his arms could not hold his body and he continued to fall rapidly.
However, although his arms could not clamp the rope, he at least stopped his falling momentum, and the rope was within the control of his body. Then, he made his second move, bending his thighs and legs toward the rope.
Up
The falling figure paused again. Ning Xiaofan made a decisive move and grabbed the rope with both hands.
呲——
Ning Xiaofan's hands felt like they were being scorched by fire, and he felt a heartbreaking pain. He could even feel the flesh on his palms beginning to curl up, but he knew in his heart that this was the last straw to save his life. He endured the severe pain in his palms and did not let go.
Not only that, when he stretched out his other thigh, the bend of his leg hooked the rope for a moment. As soon as he wound it, the rope instantly strangled his thigh.
The falling figure suddenly stopped and bounced back. At this time, Ning Xiaofan could no longer bear the pain in his palms. He loosened his hands and fell down.
Fortunately, his legs were entangled twice with the rope, and when his hands were loosened, he did not fall down. He was just hanging upside down on the rope, head and feet.
His life was finally saved for the time being. Ning Xiaofan let out a long breath, secretly thinking that he was lucky.
"Ning Xiaofan don't want it, I don't want you to die, oh oh oh oh oh..." From above, the faint cry of a little goblin could be heard.
When Ning Xiaofan heard the little goblin's pitiful cry, he was a little scared and couldn't help but cursed in his heart: What are you crying for? My brother is not dead yet.
However, he knew that he could not delay any longer, so he calmed down, exerted force on his waist and abdomen, and stood up.
The friction of the rope had made his hands bloody. Ning Xiaofan wrapped his legs around the rope, trying to stabilize his body. Then he took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, and took out the dagger pinned to his waist.
The handkerchief was cut into two pieces, and the two fleshy palms were barely bandaged.
After it was simply bandaged, Ning Xiaofan didn't waste any time. He used his hands alternately and climbed up the rope.
The distance of more than 20 meters was originally not that difficult for Ning Xiaofan, but his hands were injured, and every time he exerted force, there was a burst of heartbreaking pain. The pain only made him grimace his teeth and inhale again and again.
It hurts for a while, and it hurts for a while. Ning Xiaofan gritted his teeth and persisted without even a moment's pause.
The handkerchief had a thin layer, but soon, the bright red blood soaked into the handkerchief, leaving shocking blood stains on the rope.
It didn't take long for Ning Xiaofan to pant and climb to the soles of the little goblin. At this time, the little goblin who was still crying sadly noticed the movement below. He lowered his head and looked down, and his eyes suddenly widened.
I almost couldn't believe my eyes, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah, you're not dead?"
"Nonsense, do you really want me to die?" Ning Xiaofan replied angrily.
The little goblin blinked hard. Yes, it was really him. He was not dead. His expression was twitchy and his words were still so irritating.
It's just that the little goblin couldn't figure it out even if he broke his head. He just saw this guy falling. How could he still be alive after falling from such a high place?
Just when the little fairy was a little confused, she felt her calf being grabbed by a pair of hands, and then the seat belt around her waist sank. Before she could recover, Ning Xiaofan had already climbed up.
, this wasn’t over yet, just when the two were facing each other, Ning Xiaofan put his hands around her body and wrapped his legs around her waist, trapping her like an octopus.
.
The little goblin was caught off guard and was trapped tightly by his hands and legs. She was embarrassed and panicked, and struggled subconsciously: "Hey, what are you doing?
"Don't move, let me take a breath." Ning Xiaofan said, taking several deep breaths.
Hot air hit her face, and the little goblin sniffed his breath, feeling panicked again. However, she realized now that this guy had no protection and could only hold herself like this.
While thinking about it, the little goblin's pretty face turned crimson, and she endured the panic and shame in her heart, and remained motionless obediently.
Ning Xiaofan's breathing became a little calmer and he said, "Stay still. The rope is stuck in the pine tree above. I'll go up and clean it up."
With that said, Ning Xiaofan didn't wait for her to respond, let go of her body, and climbed up along the rope.
The pine tree was not far above, about 8 meters away in a straight line. Soon, Ning Xiaofan climbed up the pine tree.
I observed where the lift lock was stuck and found that it was stuck between the branches of the pine tree.
The place where the lock is stuck is too clever. The rope connecting the lock gear just falls into the crack between the branches. Pulling hard from above, human power alone can only make the rope sink deeper and deeper, and the rope becomes tighter and tighter. Moreover, because
The people above have been pulling the rope with brute force, and the rope has detached from the lifting pulley in the lock. Unless the entire thick branch is cut off, there is no hope for the rope to move at all.
But when Ning Xiaofan climbed to the pine tree, it was not difficult to untie the rope. He only needed to use a dagger to pry loosen along the gap under the lock, then pick out the rope from the gap between the branches, and pull it on the lock pulley.
A mid-reset will do the trick.
Ning Xiaofan saw that the rope was stretched straight, and he guessed that the person above was still pulling hard. Fortunately, he had a walkie-talkie with him, so he immediately took out the walkie-talkie to notify the top to stop pulling the rope.
The rope was loose, and the next step would be much easier. Ning Xiaofan quickly pulled out the stuck rope, then reset it in the pulley. Finally, he used the intercom to notify the people above.
The rope slowly rose. Ning Xiaofan watched the little goblin rise slowly from below, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the little goblin rose to the position where Ning Xiaofan was. Ning Xiaofan climbed on the rope and hugged the little goblin in his arms. This time, the little goblin did not struggle, and let him go like an eight-claw with a pretty face.
Clinging to myself like a fish...
As the rope continued to rise, not long after, the top of the cliff that reached high into the sky came into view, and one could faintly see the shadows of people shaking on the top of the cliff.
When they reached the top of the cliff, Ning Xiaofan and the little goblin put their feet on the ground. They couldn't help but look at each other, and exhaled hot breaths with lingering fear.
Although it was gratifying that the little goblin reached the top of the cliff safely, everyone's expressions were still gloomy. Apparently, everyone had not yet recovered from the accident that Da Li suffered.
Ning Xiaofan noticed that this place called Yunwu Terrace was not big and was not the real top of the cliff. There was a slope about 100 meters high connected to the cliff, and above the slope was the real peak.
As far as the eye can see, the 100-meter slope is muddy, and a scour mark of more than 20 meters wide is formed. The scour mark extends to the edge of the Yunwu Platform. At the edge, there are many large and small collapse gaps, and there are many more.
Huge rocks rolled down the slope.
Obviously, this 100-meter slope caused the soil to loosen under the erosion of rainwater, resulting in small mudslides, rolling rocks, and the collapse of the Yunwu Terrace.
There was a collapsed gap just where the little goblin ascended, and there were even several huge rocks hovering on the edge of the gap. Fortunately, the area where the gap was located had higher terrain, and the debris flow washed down from the slope came from both sides.
There is a lot of diversion in the lower part of the side, otherwise, those huge rocks will roll down, and Ning Xiaofan and the little goblin who are facing the gap will have their lives.
Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but feel a little scared when he saw those huge rocks. If the rain had been heavier or the terrain at that location was a little lower, he and the little goblin might have been doomed.
Looking around, Ning Xiaofan also noticed that there were not many people left on the Yunwu Platform at this time. No one from the expert team was missing. It seemed that they had moved to a safer place. The rest, except
Fatty, Hou San and others from the development department were all out. Auntie Xiang, Lao Wang, Xiao Shanzi, and one local employee all stayed.
Seeing that Fatty and others were there, Ning Xiaofan felt somewhat comforted. He believed that the reason why Fatty and others stayed was probably because they were waiting for him to come up safely, apart from the fact that the little goblin didn't come up.
Of course, given the virtues of Fatty and others, even if they stayed for their own sake, they were all fawning over the little goblin, asking for help, and diligently helping the little goblin remove the seat belt and rope.
However, Aunt Xiang saw that the little goblin was fine, so she quietly left the crowd and came to Ning Xiaofan alone. When she noticed that Ning Xiaofan's hands were wrapped in a handkerchief, and then saw the blood soaked on the handkerchief, her eyes
There was a trace of pity in her eyes, she reached out to hold his hands and said softly: "Your hands are injured?"
Aunt Xiang seemed to have cried, her eyes were a little red and swollen, and there was a faint trace of tears in her eyes.
"It's a scratch, it's okay." Ning Xiaofan smiled nonchalantly.
"I'll rebandage it for you."
"No, no, it's not very safe here. Let's wait until we leave here..."
Aunt Xiang seemed to know that this was not a place to stay for a long time, and she did not force herself. She nodded lightly and said, "Well, we'll talk about it later...Thank you this time. If it weren't for you, Miss Lin would be in danger."
"It's a small thing, there's nothing to thank you for..."
While talking, at this moment, I saw the fat man walking towards this side with his head tilted up. When Aunt Xiang saw the fat man coming, she seemed to think of something? Her pretty face turned red and she whispered: "Remember, don't be so rash in the future. Don't do it again."
Let me worry about you..."
Aunt Xiang finished this sentence without even waiting for Ning Xiaofan to respond, and turned around and left with a blushing face.
Ning Xiaofan noticed the blush on Aunt Xiang's face and felt a little strange. The fat man had already walked up to Ning Xiaofan.
The fat man first looked at Aunt Xiang's back, blinked his little eyes twice, and said with a vulgar expression: "Brother Xiao Fan, you are really a master killer, Aunt Xiang seems to be very good to you, you don't know, Xiang
When my aunt came up, she kept chanting your name and cried like a tearful person. Hehe, it was like her husband was dead..."
