Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

  Chapter 20 Thrilling, falling off a cliff

  Su Ying put on a coir raincoat and a hat for Mother Zhao, and put on a hat herself, and distributed the remaining oil-paper umbrellas to He Shouyi and Zhang Cuiniang, mother and son.

  It didn't take long for them to leave the village, and it rained harder and harder.

  The huge rain curtain made it almost impossible to see the road ahead, but they had already walked out for a while, and it was impossible to turn back to hide from the rain because of the rain.

  Today, their mission is to pass through the city of Guangdong and walk southwest along the city of Guangdong.

"It's God's fault. How can we make our way when it's raining like this, Mr. Ge?" The young official cursed. For him, this trip was a real hard job, let alone these prisoners. They also suffered along the way.

  According to the planned journey, they are going to spend the night in a ruined temple outside Guangdong City tonight, but if the rain keeps falling so heavily, they will definitely not be able to get there before dark.

   "Boss, there is no shortcut?"

  Li Da was also drenched enough, and wanted to hurry to the place, "There is a shortcut, but you have to cross a cable bridge. If you go there, you can save most of your walking distance."

  Saving most of the walking distance is definitely a big temptation for them. No one likes to be in the rain on this heavy rainy day.

   "Boss, take a shortcut, or we won't even have a place to hide from the rain tonight."

  Li Da thought for a moment and nodded. It is unknown what dangers will be encountered on the way with the heavy rain, and it is better to get there as soon as possible.

   "Go south after the intersection in front."

"yes."

   "Madam, if you are tired, let the old slave down, the old slave can go."

   "Mother Zhao, you've said this a hundred times, and I'm not tired. You can see that my steps are much faster than ordinary people."

  Mother Zhao was also very surprised, because Su Ying really walked very fast, even those who didn't carry anything on their bodies were not as light as her steps.

   "I'm afraid it's going to the southwest cable bridge." He Shouyi looked at the direction ahead and said slowly.

   "What's that place?"

"It's not a special place, it's just a cliff, which just divides the boundaries of the two cities. The imperial court built a ropeway for the people of the two cities to travel more conveniently, but later it was changed again. After the bridge was built in the nearby place, there will be no more people walking on this cableway.”

   No one left, and the imperial court did not spend any more money to maintain it, so it is not known whether the cableway is good or not, and whether it can be used.

   "How far are we from the bridge now?"

   "We have to take the main road to cross the bridge. With our current speed, I'm afraid we won't be able to get there before dark, so they are thinking of taking the small road."

  Su Ying has no problem with where to go, but just wants to get there quickly.

   Fortunately, the Southwest Cable Bridge is not far away, and they arrived after noon.

  Su Ying looked up, the rain and water vapor shrouded the cliff, and the rusty cable bridge could be seen from a distance, because the fog on the cliff was too heavy, they couldn't see the situation on the other side at all.

  The officer untied the dog rope tied to the side of the cart, and led the black dog towards the chain bridge.

   Not long after, there was a sound of a dog barking from the other side.

  Su Ying listened to the echo and estimated that the chain bridge was about 50 meters long.

  Fifty meters is not considered long. If the iron chain is strong, walking over it will not be a problem.

  In order to ensure that the iron chain would not break, Li Da divided all the prisoners into a group of ten, and added two officials to cross the bridge.

  In order to share the weight of Su Ying, He Shouyi took the burden from her.

  The prisoners are all worried that something will happen when they cross the bridge, and everyone is very careful.

   "Bai Shuang, follow He Dashu and Zhang Cuiniang and go first, and I will be right behind you." When the group arrived at Su Ying's side, she disconnected.

  Bai Shuang nodded, picked up Erbao and carefully followed onto the bridge, but luckily everything went well.

   "Ma'am, this bridge is not easy to walk on. You'd better let me down. Although I have a bad cough, my physical strength has almost recovered, so I can walk on my own."

The entire body of this iron chain bridge is bound with iron chains. The wooden boards on the iron chains have already been eroded by wind and rain. It is really difficult to walk across with a person on their backs. Let her hold on to the iron chains on both sides to walk more steadily.

  Su Ying tore off the cloth strip and wrapped it around Mother Zhao's wrist, and wrapped the other side around the iron chain to prevent her from falling.

   "Jiang Yang, let me down."

   "My lord, this subordinate can carry you behind my back."

  Xiao Jin shook his head, "The iron chain is not stable. If you carry too much weight, you will lose your balance. I can pass by myself. You can carry Jier well."

   "Daddy..." Dabao looked at Xiao Jin worriedly.

  Xiao Jin signaled that they don't have to worry. Although he can't walk with his legs, he can still move his hands. He can move slowly as long as he holds the iron chain.

   "Follow up and get on the bridge." The officer in front shouted, and the prisoners walking in front went to the bridge one after another.

   Once on the bridge, visibility is reduced with thick fog.

Su Ying walked at the end, looking at Mama Zhao and the others, "Mama Zhao, don't worry, this chain bridge is very stable, you will be fine if you follow every step, even if your foot slips, I can pull you back. "

  Su Ying's words were like a reassurance, which gradually calmed down the nervous mother Zhao. After the initial panic, she walked more steadily when she reached the middle of the bridge.

   Just as Su Ying relaxed slightly, the bridge body suddenly shook violently, and the bridge body also began to pour.

  Su Ying's expression froze, she grabbed the iron chain with one hand, and supported Mother Zhao tightly with the other hand.

   "What's going on in front?"

   "The iron chain is broken, go!" Someone in front suddenly shouted.

  Su Ying's heart sank and she grabbed Mother Zhao and walked steadily forward.

  Suddenly a hidden weapon brushed past Su Ying's ear, and flew straight towards Xiao Jin who was walking in front.

   "Xiao Jin, be careful!" Su Ying exclaimed.

  Xiao Jin came back to his senses suddenly, he could only let go of one hand and sideways his body to avoid the attack of hidden weapons.

   But at this moment, the iron chain in his hand broke suddenly, causing him to lose his balance, and the whole person fell towards the cliff.

   "Daddy!"

  Su Ying didn't have time to think about it, so he jumped towards Xiao Jin.

  Xiao Jin looked at Su Ying who jumped down with astonishment in his eyes, he didn't expect that she would jump down with him.

  Su Ying grabbed Xiao Jin's hand, looked at the gradually clear water below and said loudly: "Quick, hold your breath!"

The next moment, the two fell into the icy water. The pressure under the water almost made Su Ying breathless, but no matter how uncomfortable she was, she still held Xiao Jin's hand tightly. She knew that if she let go Well, in Xiao Jin's situation, it's probably impossible to survive.

  Xiao Jin held his breath the moment he fell, but the cold river water still made his scalp numb, a surge of blood surged up, and he gradually lost consciousness...
