Chapter 172 A Smooth Landing

One of Li Xin's legs is still underneath. She can't stand up at all now. The bridge is still swaying. She just holds on to the rope tightly without moving her body. She doesn't dare to shout, let alone scream.

.

"Li Xin, don't move, be sure to hold still, and wait for me to come over." I shouted, it didn't matter to her at this moment, it frightened me a little, and it was in my throat, I had to go over and help her.

Just a handful will do.

"Zhongyi, please don't come over here. I can handle it myself." She finally shouted loudly without looking back.

"Can you do it? If not, just go back quickly. It's too dangerous, so I'll go." Mai Lao also shouted forward. It seemed that everyone was sweating for her.

"I'm fine, I'm really fine. I was just a little anxious. I'll continue moving forward when the bridge stops shaking. Don't come over. This small bridge can't bear the weight of two people." She still knew very well in her heart.

, this small bridge is indeed difficult to bear the weight of two people.

I looked back at Mr. Mai, and he nodded to me. We had to wait patiently. After about three or four minutes, the bridge stopped shaking and returned to its original quiet state.

At this time, Li Xin began to slowly pull back her dangling legs, and then stood up little by little. Although the movements were very slow, they were very skillful and steady. There were no impetuous movements. It seemed that she was

Adjust your mentality.

After she stood up, she shouted without looking back, "I'm going to move forward. Please help me hold on to the rope."

"Don't worry, we will hold on tightly." I replied to her.

Li Xin didn't say anything. After adjusting her condition, she continued to walk forward, holding the ropes on both sides with both hands, almost dragging her legs forward. She must have been frightened by the torment just now. Although I kept watching

We can't see her frontal expression, but you can still see it somewhat by looking at her back.

This time, she no longer expected to speed up. She walked forward slowly and steadily.

The slow speed is more uncomfortable than that of an old man. It is almost like the slow motion in the movie. But every time I take a step, the wooden board in front still makes a "squeak" sound. This sound makes my head hurt. It is so tortured.

.

Because she walked at a steady and slow pace, the small bridge only trembled slightly and no longer swayed. As she moved forward, we lengthened the rope around her little by little, until she was about to walk to the opposite side.

Now, I feel a little nervous, but also a little more excited.

I prayed silently in my heart, but don't let anything happen again at this last moment, otherwise all my efforts will be wasted and everything will be in vain.

But fortunately, everything went smoothly. When Li Xin's feet landed smoothly, I gasped and suddenly took a big breath. It was not just me, but everyone behind me was like this.

What a breath of relief.

Li Xin had reached the other side safely. After she untied the rope around her body, she turned around and waved to us, "You can come here, but you must walk slowly. The board is not strong and may break at any time."

"My mother, she is over now. We have hope again." The big man shouted excitedly.

"Great, Li Xin finally passed, we have hope." Jenny also said with a happy smile.

"Oh my god, she finally passed. It was more uncomfortable for her to walk this way than for me to walk on my own." Jiao Ba muttered softly behind me.

I turned to look at him and said, "Me too, I've never felt better. Everyone quickly retracted the rope and the second person started to cross the bridge."

After we retracted the rope, the second person crossing the bridge originally wanted Jenny to go, but Jenny repeatedly said that she was not ready yet and insisted on waiting for a while. This was not forced, and she would have been extremely nervous.

, it’s really easy for something big to happen when crossing the bridge, so we can only ask her to wait later.

In the end, it was decided to let Mai Lao go over second, just like before. Mai Lao tied the rope to his body, and the rest of us grabbed the rope from behind. From the moment he got on the bridge, he slowed down and moved forward very steadily.

Walk slowly.

This old guy is indeed very capable. Every time he takes a step, when his feet step on the wooden board, there is almost no sound. I can only hear a slight "squeak" sound from the wooden board. This sound is extremely small.

, if I hadn’t concentrated very hard to listen, I wouldn’t have heard anything at all.

Compared with when Li Xin crossed the bridge before, the sound was much quieter. Although his movements were slow, they were almost done in one go. There was no pause or waiting in the middle. Even if he reached the bridge section where Li Xin had an accident before,

He also walked across it smoothly. The entire process of walking on the bridge was at the same time and at the same pace, and he walked forward smoothly and evenly.

Not to mention the small bridge swaying, it even trembled less. It seemed as if no one was crossing the bridge at all. This is really amazing. If it were me, I might not be able to achieve such perfection.

"This old guy is so fucking amazing. He can control himself so well, he's almost not nervous at all." Jiao Ba said softly from behind me.

"Yes, it is indeed very impressive. The steps are light and even, and the body balance is perfectly mastered. If it were you, could you do it?" I turned my face away and said in a low voice.

"This... it should be quite embarrassing. A tomb robber like me may have such skills, but he may not be able to reach his level. This old guy is really extraordinary. A professor can achieve these two things.

"This is too unreasonable." Jiao Ba's tone of voice was very cold and suspicious.

"Then what do you think?" I asked him.

"It's nothing. In the absence of any evidence, everything is just speculation. Let's wait patiently. Saving our lives is the most important thing now."

After Mai Lao passed safely, he casually untied the rope around his body, turned around and shouted with a smile, "It's no problem. As long as everyone is careful, we can get here safely. Don't be nervous, Zhongyi, I'm here."

Waiting for you."

I also waved my hand, "Don't worry, Mr. Mai, we'll be there soon."

We started to discuss who should be the third person to cross. This is very important. I always feel that the bridge will collapse at any time. If we want to ensure that everyone can cross smoothly, we must first get over the people who are in poor physical condition.

Everyone else said it was easy, Jenny should be fine, but Xiao Huzi was not. He had to rely on us to protect him all the way. When he faced the dead bodies at the bottom of the mountain, Xiao Huzi was almost scared to death, and he was almost killed by the dead bodies several times.

Buried alive.

If it weren't for Mai Lao and Chang Shan who protected him all the way, he would have died in that cemetery long ago. In fact, since arriving on the island, it can be said that everyone has taken turns to take care of him along the way. Regarding this, we are still relatively

If you are a team player, at least you will not leave anyone behind.

It was better after we went up the mountain. This kid was in good physical condition. He didn't need anyone's help when climbing the mountain. He followed closely all the way, which was pretty good.

I discussed it with Jiao Ba and decided to let him pass first. "Huzi, you come to cross the bridge this time." I turned my head and looked at him and said, this kid was pulling the rope at the end. When he heard me say, let him cross.

, his complexion suddenly changed and turned extremely white.

At this time, Xiao Huzi walked up to me and stammered, "Yi...yi brother, I...I'm a little afraid of heights? I don't dare to cross."

I knew this kid must be scared to death. From his face, I could tell, "It's okay, Tiger. Everyone is afraid of heights. Don't look down. Just look ahead. Walk slowly and you'll be fine."

Yes." I patted his shoulder and comforted him.

"I...I really can't do it. I saw Li Xin almost fall just now. I was so scared that my legs were spinning. Brother Yi, you...you'd better let others pass first." Xiao Huzi's face was extremely ugly, almost...

Words said with a sad face.

My face darkened, I looked at him and said, "Huzi, others can cross now, but if you don't go across by yourself, no one can help you. It's too dangerous for two people to cross this bridge. It's almost like seeking death."

Woolen cloth."

"but I……"

"Okay, step brother, forget it if he doesn't want to go through. Don't waste your breath here. Huzi, I tell you, if we all go through, you can figure it out yourself. The further it goes, the harder it will be to go."

, when you really fall, no one can save you." Jiao Ba interrupted him directly and said with a serious face.

I know very well in my heart that Jiao Ba has good intentions and wants to provoke him. It can only be effective if he provokes him. Men, only when they are angry will they explode.

Xiao Huzi's eyes suddenly widened, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll do it, my sworn brother, I'll do it."

This trick really worked. Jiao Ba and I looked at each other and smiled tacitly, "Get ready and let's go."

Xiao Huzi tied the rope around his body several times, which made me feel uncomfortable. "Brother, what's wrong with you? I've tied it around so many times, but you still don't think it's too heavy."

"As for this, this can make me feel more at ease." He said with his face still so ugly.

After he finished it, the others held on to the rope again, and I signaled him to cross the bridge. This guy walked forward tremblingly, his legs obviously shaking. It seemed that he had a serious fear of heights.

"Don't be nervous, relax your body, otherwise it will be more difficult for you to walk." I said softly, hoping that this would reduce the pressure on his mind.

His stiff body turned around and said, "Yeah, I know...I know."

It seems to be of no use. I pray that everything goes well for him, but I never expected that something would happen to him as soon as he took a step out. As soon as this foot stepped on the wooden board of the small bridge, he waited for the other foot to come again.

When I was about to move forward, I heard a "click" and the board suddenly broke...
