Return to Splendid

Chapter 277 The most dangerous time has come

Mentioning the wild boar nest, many people exclaimed: "How can you climb such a high mountain? Who is so brave, when did you climb up, and why are you going there? Are you not afraid of being eaten by wild boars?"

Aunt Ding affirmed: "It's not from Moon Castle. To get there from the village, you have to pass through the Grand Canyon, go down to the canyon, and then climb up the mountain. It takes at least two hours. You don't dare to go alone. If you want to go there, , you have to go in small groups."

To be cautious, he arranged for two young men to quickly go door to door to check if anyone had gone out during the day and had not returned.

Xing Yi noticed that the positions of the three fires were obviously arranged in a triangle.According to common sense, it is not a big deal if a wild fire is chaotic and irregular, but if a triangle with standard rules appears, it is a dangerous situation.

Xing Yi told everyone: "Someone must be trapped there. In an emergency, this is sending a signal for help outside."

For a while, everyone talked about it.

"Signal for help? Who would understand this? From what you say, they must not be locals."

"What kind of help are you asking for? I'm afraid not. Maybe it's to make a fire to cook something to eat, or to barbecue some wild animals."

"Whether they are human beings or not, how many there are, who can be sure?"

"The person is in the middle, and there are three fires burning around him. When the person is inside, it is not cold at all, and he can sleep peacefully."

"Then why don't you say that you are a local and you still can't find your way back?"

"For outsiders, if you are just one person, it will be dangerous. In the middle of the night, wild boars come out and they will do whatever they see."

Aunt Ding didn't speak and kept looking there.

Xing Yi waited for him to think for a while and heard a heavy breath. He guessed that he was worried, so he took the initiative to find two brave, careful and strong young people in the village to go up with him to have a look.

Aunt Ding said: "The journey is too long, it's in the middle of the night, and there are gullies all along the way. The canyon is not easy to walk at all. The water is fast and cold, and you have to climb a steep slope. I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

Xing Yi said: "I am young and in good health. Walking at night and crossing gullies should not be a problem. I have never been to a canyon, so I should experience it."

"Are you really worried about the people above?"

"Everyone's analysis is correct. They are definitely not locals. When outsiders are in danger, they are more terrifying than locals. At this time, it is time for us locals to come forward to help."

The two young men who went to inquire came back and reported to Uncle Ding that there was nothing to inquire about.

Aunt Ding asked them: "Would you like to go up the mountain and have a look?"

Both young men were startled and took a few steps back.

Aunt Ding said: "What? Just asking, are you having diarrhea? It's better to be an outsider. When you see someone asking for help on the mountain, they take the initiative to stand up. Look at others and think about yourself, then you won't be afraid of being attacked by others." Ridiculous?"

The two young men stood still and looked up at the mountain. One said, "It takes at least three or five people to dare to go."

"Listen carefully, and I, the guest from the city."

The young man said, "Okay, let's go too."

"This is our young man from Moon Castle."

Another man in his thirties came forward and said, "I am one of them. I have been to the canyon a few days ago and I know that the water in that section is shallow."

"That would be great."

The five people gathered together immediately, made full preparations, brought ropes, poles and sickles, as well as water and dry food, and set off.

We arrived at the Grand Canyon in 10 minutes and walked down to the bottom, still in 10 minutes.

Uncle Ding told Xing Yi: "This is Tiger Leaping Gorge."

Xing Yi raised his head and looked around. The outline of the cliff was very blurry, and he could only distinguish the narrow sky above by the sparse starlight.

The cold wind in the canyon at night made the body tremble. Xing Yi wrapped his clothes tightly and asked: "Is there another canyon with this name in Jinxiu County?"

My aunt chattered her teeth and said, "As far as I know, there is no second one."

Why does Xing Yi ask this?Because in the previous life, when my son graduated from junior high school, the county had a highway with six lanes in both directions and a speed of up to 120 kilometers per hour. It passed through Jinxiu County for [-] kilometers from south to north.The expressway connects four bridges, large and small. The most famous one is a large cable-stayed bridge, which spans over Tiger Leaping Gorge. Therefore, the name of the bridge is also called Tiger Leaping Narrow Bridge.So, the location of this bridge is right here.

The person in charge of the prefabrication yard followed General Manager Sun to attend the opening ceremony of the cable-stayed bridge.After he went back, he explained to everyone that the car drove to the middle of the bridge and stopped. People opened the door and stood up. They stood down from a high position. The wind roared in their ears. It was shocking. I was shocked by the formation. When I looked down at the canyon below, people were like ants. It was amazing. .At that time, General Manager Sun was so excited and panicked that he couldn't hold his cell phone steady and fell to the bridge.

The goal that General Manager Sun has pursued throughout his life is to allow Hongda Company to participate in the construction of such a world-class bridge and leave traces of his own labor on the project.It's a pity that although he has been fighting for it and made a lot of efforts, his sincere pursuit and good wishes have never been realized.

The construction of the expressway-connecting bridge took one and a half years.

My son graduated from elementary school this year, which means that in another year and a half, construction of the bridge will begin.This time may be long or short, there are still more than 540 days, short or short, it will arrive in just a few blinks of the eyelids.

How much can be done in three years, and how close can we get to the bridge?Xing Yi is starting to think about it now. He still doesn’t know when the project will be approved.Take the initiative and look for connections in the province to see if you can get any relevant information?

It all depends on people. If we make preparations now, even if we can deliver a load of sand and gravel to the bridge in the end and tie steel bars for a day, it will be an extremely happy thing.

Know the progress in advance and make all preparations in advance. God will always give you some blessing.

The water in the canyon is waist deep, and people can swim through it, but the current is very fast, and you will be washed down if you are not careful.

The five people's waists are all tied with ropes, and they are connected to each other. If someone accidentally steps on the wrong side, the other four people can stop him and pull him back to the team.

The cold wind was blowing, and everyone was shivering from the cold.After wading through the current, we climbed up again and climbed up the steep slope for a full hour.It was already one o'clock in the night. In order to avoid detours, Uncle Ding chose a high point, stood high, and looked back. He meant to determine the direction of the target by looking back at the position of Moon Castle.But because it was pitch black in the distance and nothing could be seen, he sighed and said that the village should have installed street lights long ago.

However, Xing Yi had a compass in his cell phone. He opened it and pulled it a few times with the light of a flashlight, and the end was flat. He turned 180 degrees and the direction was calibrated. After climbing about a hundred meters, he finally saw the three fires. A little closer, In the gap between the fire, three figures appeared.

It was already two o'clock in the morning.

Seeing them, the three of them struggled to get up, walk a few steps, and squat down again. They were exhausted and hungry, and it was indeed the most dangerous time.
