Gu Chen felt like the world was spinning and he seemed to be falling into an abyss.
But when he opened his eyes again, everything in front of him seemed calm again.
Xu Youzhi still held a thick branch, slowly stretched it towards Gu Chen, and shouted to Gu Chen: "Officer Gu, grab the branch quickly, quickly!"
Gu Chen was in a daze and realized that everything just happened seemed to be his fantasy.
But the current situation is the reality.
Xu Youzhi kept urging, and the cracks in the soil between his arms were gradually expanding.
There seems to be a risk of collapse at any time.
The branch was placed in front of him. Should he grab it or not? Gu Chen suddenly fell into a dilemma.
If everything you imagined just now is what is about to happen, then if you grab this life-saving branch, you may have fallen into Xu Youzhi's trap.
Once Xu Youzhi deliberately let go while he was climbing, he would die in a place of great calamity.
Falling into a cliff means a narrow escape from death.
But Xu Youzhi could have used the branch to break and the rescue failed to be a prevarication.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen began to struggle fiercely in his heart.
However, the soil between his arms began to loosen, and a lot of soil began to fall toward the bottom of the cliff.
Time, Gu Chen didn't have any choice.
At this critical moment, Gu Chen could only desperately grab the thick branch.
"Wow!"
At this moment, the soil that could still support Gu Chen's arms suddenly broke into multiple small pieces and began to fall towards the bottom of the cliff.
It took a long time for Gu Chen to hear the sound of falling gravel.
"Officer Gu, hurry up." At this moment, Xu Youzhi grabbed the other end of the thick branch and used all his strength to pull Gu Chen up the cliff.
Gu Chen looked at Xu Youzhi, and he was also struggling desperately, trying to make his body stronger.
"One, two, three, ah!" Xu Youzhi roared, and under Xu Youzhi's exertion, Gu Chen felt an unprecedented stretching force.
Relying on this stretch, Gu Chen quickly climbed forward using his hands and feet.
Just when Gu Chen climbed up the cliff, the area where Gu Chen had climbed suddenly began to collectively break.
Gu Chen took the opportunity to kick his legs back and started running forward using the reaction force.
At the same time, Xu Youzhi, who felt that the situation was not good, also began to retreat quickly toward the rear.
The two cooperated tacitly and climbed up and down together, and finally escaped the danger of the cliff.
When they came to the side of the bamboo forest, the two of them grabbed a bamboo with both hands and felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Xu Youzhi panted heavily and asked Gu Chen: "Gu... Officer Gu, are you... are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Gu Chen shook his head and said calmly: "Xu Youzhi, you just saved my life."
"It should be." Xu Youzhi was panting from exhaustion. He waved his hand to Gu Chen and then said:
"You have fallen off the cliff, can I just die without saving you?"
After hearing what Xu Youzhi said, Gu Chen also asked him tentatively: "But why did you choose to leave just now?"
"That's because I found that the soil began to break where you put your hands, and it couldn't bear my weight at all."
"If I move forward rashly, once the soil on the edge of the cliff breaks, both you and I will fall off the cliff. That would be dangerous."
After a pause, Xu Youzhi also wiped the sweat with the back of his hand, and then said again:
"So, I quickly ran to the bamboo forest and found a thick branch. Then I ran over and pulled you up."
Listening to Xu Youzhi's explanation, Gu Chen felt that he might have wrongly blamed Xu Youzhi just now.
Maybe Xu Youzhi just wanted to save himself, but the Xu Youzhi in his fantasy didn't seem to be like this at all.
"Is it my distrust of Xu Youzhi that leads me to imagine Xu Youzhi as a bad person when I have fantasies?"
Gu Chen asked himself, feeling that maybe he was overthinking.
Xu Youzhi wiped the sweat on his forehead, then opened the mineral water, took two gulps, and then said:
"I've told you before that this bamboo forest is quite weird. I've been here before and I felt like this place was quite evil and I had to leave immediately."
"You know, sometimes it doesn't matter if you don't believe in those crooked theories, you have to respect them."
"Anyway, many people have had accidents in this bamboo forest before. Take just now, you were walking and ended up on the edge of the cliff."
"Moreover, even before you realize it, you are already on the verge of death."
Taking a deep breath, Xu Youzhi said again: "Fortunately, you were discovered by me, otherwise, your little life today will really have to be explained here."
"Thank you." Faced with Xu Youzhi's complaints, Gu Chen also politely thanked him.
After all, Xu Youzhi took a huge risk to save himself just now. To be honest, Gu Chen owed him a favor.
But thinking about it, the two of them kept a safe distance before, but suddenly, Xu Youzhi disappeared without a trace.
If he hadn't been in such a hurry to find Xu Youzhi, he wouldn't have been careless and unaware of the cliff at his feet.
So Gu Chen asked Xu Youzhi again: "By the way, Xu Youzhi, where did you go just now? Why was there no trace of you after I marked it?"
"I'm exploring the road." Xu Youzhi didn't dare to drink too much water, so he could only take back the mineral water bottle, and then said:
"I saw that you were dawdling in the back, so I ran to the front to explore the way."
"But, after a while, I didn't see your figure."
"It scared me so much that I quickly turned back and looked for you everywhere. Only then did I realize that you had fallen on the edge of the cliff."
With a heavy sigh, Xu Youzhi also said in fear: "If you have any shortcomings, I really can't explain it. Fortunately, it was a near miss."
"Maybe I was careless." Thinking about the danger just now, it was entirely his own fault.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So Gu Chen said again: "Since it is so dangerous here, then we must remind the follow-up troops and let the two following teams know clearly and pay attention to the weeds under their feet. Maybe
It’s the edge of the cliff.”
I thought that the remaining two teams would have to go through the same path as myself.
If someone is not careful, they may make the same mistake again.
Fortunately, there was some extra soil to support it just now, but now, due to the location of the edge of the cliff, a lot of soft soil had just been pulled off the cliff by Gu Chen.
"The edge of the cliff now will be even more dangerous."
"If someone takes the wrong path and steps into the grass, they will inevitably roll to the bottom of the cliff after losing their balance."
Just now, Gu Chen had enough buffer, and then he had the opportunity to grasp the life-saving straw on the edge of the cliff.
But now, the buffer area has fallen off a cliff. If the same thing happens to me again, it will be a narrow escape.
"No, we have to mark it for everyone. We must not let them enter the dangerous area."
"This is easy to handle." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Xu Youzhi raised his fingers at Gu Chen.
"What's wrong?" Gu Chen asked.
"Give me a rope, as long as possible."
After hearing Xu Youzhi's words, he thought that he still had some marked red strings in his pocket.
So Gu Chen took out a few of them, spliced them together, and handed them to Xu Youzhi.
Xu Youzhi began to tie the two sections of the red rope to the bamboo branches on both sides.
Later, Xu Youzhi found some dry firewood with leaves and began to wrap it with red rope.
So it didn't take long for Xu Youzhi to prepare the reminder signs.
To put it simply, tie the red rope outside the dangerous area.
Then use some branches as cover to attract the attention of the following troops.
After completing this, Xu Youzhi took out his knife and prepared to leave a message on the branch for those who came after him.
However, he was stopped by Gu Chen in time. Gu Chen took out his police dagger and reminded him, "Leave this kind of matter to me."
"Okay, I'm done." Seeing that Gu Chen was proactive in his work, Xu Youzhi didn't say anything.
So, Gu Chen carved the situation on the bamboo pole in brief words.
After completing the operation, Gu Chen took two steps back and found that the road signs were more obvious. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's it."
"Let's go, hurry up." Xu Youzhi, who was panting from exhaustion, still reminded Gu Chen that it was important to hurry up.
After a series of events just now, Gu Chen felt that it was time for him to leave the bamboo forest.
So the two began to walk together.
This time, Gu Chen and Xu Youzhi kept a very close distance.
Looking at Xu Youzhi walking beside him, Gu Chen also doubted himself: "Did I misjudge the wrong person? Maybe this Xu Youzhi really doesn't mean any harm."
If this was the case, then Gu Chen felt that he might have imagined Xu Youzhi as a treacherous person because of his high mental stress.
But as Xu Youzhi saved him, Gu Chen's trust in Xu Youzhi began to slowly increase.
Seeing that he passed through another bamboo forest, Gu Chen, who was following Xu Youzhi, said slowly:
"Xu Youzhi, what are you going to do if you find Hu Peng?"
"Ah?" It seemed that he was confused by Gu Chen's words and had not yet reacted.
So Xu Youzhi continued to ask: "What did you just say?"
"I said, if you find Hu Peng, what are you going to do?" Gu Chen continued.
Xu Youzhi sighed and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter. Finding him is for his safety."
"Although I don't know why Hu Peng was targeted by some inexplicable people, I believe you, the police."
"If you, the police, feel that there is a problem, then there must be a problem. I just want to help and help more people, including Hu Peng."
Listening to Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen felt that Xu Youzhi should be a well-informed person.
At least he was a knowledgeable and knowledgeable person. From the moment he talked to him, Gu Chen already felt the complexity of the situation.
Although Xu Youzhi is a scrap collector, he is active outdoors every day.
But even so, Xu Youzhi has a smart mind, which is completely different from others.
Perhaps it was really because Xu Youzhi had a good personal relationship with Hu Peng that Xu Youzhi spared no effort to help Hu Peng.
Not long after, Gu Chen found a plastic bottle again.
At this time, the plastic bottles were already empty, and all the water sources had been consumed.
Gu Chen pointed to a mineral water bottle on the side of the road and said, "Could this mineral water bottle be left by Hu Peng?"
"Let me take a look." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Xu Youzhi hurried over to find out.
After a moment, Xu Youzhi nodded silently and said involuntarily: "I've seen it. Judging from the appearance of the mineral water bottle, this is our local mineral water."
"Local mineral water?" Gu Chen was a little confused.
But Xu Youzhi said calmly: "It's normal, because the source of this brand of mineral water is from the pool below the stream."
"Then it goes through some seemingly high-level, in-depth processing."
"Looking at the mineral water bottle on the ground, Xu Youzhi said again: "And I bought this bottle of mineral water for him."
"Did you buy it for him again?" After hearing Xu Youzhi's words, Gu Chen found it hard to imagine that Xu Youzhi's relationship with Hu Peng seemed to be completely beyond everyone's imagination.
As the two walked and chatted, they saw that the sky began to get dark, and they started to turn on flashlights and headlamps when walking in the sparse forest.
It seems that there are more and more garbage on the ground.
Gu Chen knew very well that Hu Peng might be nearby, and he was getting closer and closer to Hu Peng.
Maybe it won't be long before we can meet the escaped Hu Peng.
Of course Gu Chen hoped to meet Hu Peng that night, but Gu Chen didn't give up on this thought either.
"Officer Gu." While Gu Chen was in a daze, Xu Youzhi quickly reminded Gu Chen: "There must be a mark here. From here, there is a ridge line going down the mountain."
"On the other side, there is a ridgeline along the average altitude. If you go the wrong way, it will be really fatal."
"Understood." After understanding what Xu Youzhi meant, Gu Chen tied a red rope to a branch by the roadside, and used a police dagger to carve the direction of the arrow underneath the red rope.
After completing the operation, Gu Chen found that Xu Youzhi was getting further and further away, and it seemed that he had no intention of waiting for him at all.
Of course Gu Chen would not argue with Xu Youzhi, but just now he was being followed in the bamboo forest.
Thinking of Xu Youzhi walking through the woods, it seemed like he was walking on flat ground.
Gu Chen felt that he could not let Xu Youzhi leave his sight, otherwise this smart guy might do something terrible.
"Officer Gu, let's go." Seeing that Gu Chen was thinking, Xu Youzhi interrupted Gu Chen's thinking again.
Helpless, Gu Chen could only bite the bullet and continue to follow Xu Youzhi.
As the two of them walked further and further away, the sky began to gradually darken.
At this moment, the two of them had arrived at a high hilltop.
Xu Youzhi signaled Gu Chen to stop advancing, and he quickly walked to the top of the mountain to observe the movements in the mountain.
Especially observe places with light. The place with light may be Hu Peng's campsite, so you need to be extra cautious.
