Chapter 1039
I was a bit stunned for a moment, and then he broke all the tree trunks that Shi Rui had just thrown down, making them into one piece.
Seeing him planting the broken branches into the edge of the cave, in no time at all, quite a few branches were thrown down from the entrance of the cave in succession.
Rock climbing!
Thinking about this, I understood what Fu Shenyan meant and broke the branches with him. He found stones in the mud and knocked each heel of the short branch very firmly into the edge of the hole.
It was a lot of work, and Fu Shenyan did it without saying a word, knocking down stakes as he climbed through the night.
As the distance got farther and farther away, I couldn’t hand him the stakes, so I had to hand him the whole branches and let him break them off as he knocked.
The other people at the entrance of the cave also thought of Fu Shenyan’s method, so instead of throwing them down directly, they broke the branches, put them in a bag, tied them with a rope and put them down for Fu Shenyan to get.
Everyone united, and in a short while they had made a dense ma*s of stakes, Fu Shen Yan looked down at me and spoke, “Try to climb up!”
I nodded my head, I naturally felt a lot safer with a point under my feet to land on.
The rain was pouring down and the rest of Shirui’s clothes were all wet. Ouyang Nuo looked at me and worried, “Let’s get out of here!”
“This side is prone to collapse, especially when it’s raining, let’s go first!” Yang Ting also spoke up and urged.
Sure enough, we hadn’t gone for a while when the sky kind of suddenly thundered, the sound of thunder was so loud that everyone’s clothes were already wet, so we didn’t care to think much about it at this point, and we all headed straight for the tent.
“It looks like it’s collapsing again!” Yang Ting’s boyfriend suddenly spoke up.
In a flash, everyone turned around to look and saw that the area that had collapsed was even bigger.
“This side used to be all mines, and some places were dug more than ten metres deep, and no one has managed it over the years, so whenever it rains, accidents like this tend to happen.” Yang Ting’s boyfriend spoke up.
Yang Ting was shocked, “I see there are still many tea trees on that mountain, so won’t those tea farmers be in danger and could easily take their own lives.”
Shi Rui opened her mouth and instead turned to Fu Shen Yan, “Mr. Fu, where have you been? If it weren’t for looking for you, Shen Shu wouldn’t have had to suffer so much, and we wouldn’t have followed you to get caught in the rain.”
All of a sudden everyone’s attention looked at Fu Shen Yan, Fu Shen Yan slightly looked at everyone, but also quite calm, polite and not lose elegance said, “Tonight’s matter, it is because of my poor consideration, that something so big happened, tomorrow I invite everyone to dinner, to give you all an apology.”
Shi Rui bristled, “We don’t blame you, and to be frank, it wasn’t your problem.”
I had been in the cave for a while, and now that I was easily out of danger, I was suddenly relieved inside and couldn’t help but feel a sense of exhaustion coming over me, so tired.
As I listened to them chatting, my feet weakened and I went unconsciously soft.
Fu Shen Yan’s quick eyes and hands mastered me, and smoothly held me tightly in his arms.
“Shen Shu, what’s wrong? Are you hurt? Quickly check to see.” Ouyang Nuo was so anxious that he crouched down beside me to check me before the words came out.
Blocked by Fu Shen Yan, the man’s voice was low and introspective, “She’s just too tired, plus her nerves were too tight just now, now she’s suddenly relaxed and a little tired, just rest, she’s not injured!”
Chapter 1040
I pulled Ouyang Nuo, nodded and tried to get up, but was held by Fu Shen Yan, he directly hugged me across the body, both of our clothes were wet, it was originally an August day, not that cold.
Being held by him like this, I could clearly feel the temperature of his body, even the rhythm of his heartbeat.
When I thought about it, my face turned red involuntarily and I was a little embarra*sed.
It was hard to get to the tent, and because I was worried that my clothes would be too wet and I would get cold, Ouyang Nuo handed me the clothes she had brought with her today and told me to change in the tent.
There wasn’t much room and she squeezed in, worried that I wouldn’t be able to change with my injuries.
I was a little embarra*sed by her looking straight at me and coughed, “Actually, you don’t have to look at me like that, I’m fine, really, intact!”
She nodded, her gaze still falling on me, and spoke, “It’s a good thing Shi Rui shouted for help loud enough for the mountain forest hook to be empty, otherwise there’s no telling what would have happened if you hadn’t come up in all that rain right now.”
I gave my hand a beat as I changed and looked up at her, “You didn’t look for the past because Duan Tong came over and asked you for help?”
She shook her head and frowned, “We weren’t separated from you for long, we went back to camp after going around the mountain and not finding Fu Shen Yan, only later did Fu Shen Yan and Zhou Ranxi come back slowly because Zhou Ranxi broke her foot, all the while not coming back, when she came back it was Fu Shen Yan who helped her, this woman is really a troublemaker.”
I froze and spoke, “Has Duan Tong come back then?”
She frowned slightly, “I’d forgotten about this person if you didn’t mention it, we haven’t seen her since your accident!”
“After we saw Fu Shenyan and Zhou Ranxi come back, we waited for you for a long time, and when we saw that you hadn’t come back, it was raining and we were worried that something had happened to you before we searched towards the mountains. Luckily, we heard Shi Rui’s cries for help before we knew you had fallen into the cave.”
I pursed my lips and stopped speaking.
After a moment of silence, Ouyang Nuo responded and looked at me, “Did you let Duan Tong come back for help after your accident?”
I nodded, “Yes!”
She pursed her lips and furrowed her brows, “D*mn, this woman is really disgusting, full of Buddhist scriptures of compa*sion, but when she does something, she is really not merciful at all!”
I didn’t say anything, I changed my clothes in silence, for a while I felt no strength in my body, my whole body was a bit like being drained, tired and exhausted.
It was not safe to rush back now, so we decided to rest in the tent for the night.
Ouyang Nuo originally said he was going to stay with me in the tent, but was taken away by Mu Shen not long after.
I was so tired that I didn’t ask about the others, so I leaned back in the tent and fell asleep in a daze.
In the middle of the night it rained harder and thundered, which woke me up.
When I rolled over, I was startled to realise that someone was lying beside me and almost screamed.
But someone took my hand and the man said, “It’s me, don’t be afraid!”
I froze for a moment, stunned, “Fu Shen Yan, why are you ……”
I was scared out of my wits and realized after the fact that he should be with Zhou Ranxi at this time, how come he came to me.
I couldn’t help but frown and say, “Why did you come over?”
He didn’t say anything, but as the thunder rumbled outside, I instinctively moved closer to him, and he didn’t seem to notice, putting the earplugs in his hands into my ears.
