In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Chapter 147 Trapped at the Bottom of the Cliff

At dawn the next day, the morning light shone through the clouds, illuminating the whole world. Chen Ruotong woke up early, dressed herself, ate and drank enough, and when everything was ready, she left the space.

The moment she walked out of the space, Chen Ruotong was immediately shocked by the scene in front of her. There was a thick layer of morning mist at the bottom of the cliff, floating in the air like a veil, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

In the mist, the leaves are covered with crystal clear dewdrops, shining with faint light.

Birds are singing happily in the surrounding mountains and forests, and the bird calls one after another interweave into a beautiful and moving symphony, as if you are in a fairyland isolated from the world.

Facing such a beautiful scenery, Chen Ruotong had no time to appreciate it. She quickly took out her mobile phone and used a compass to determine her location.

However, after many attempts, she found that this method was useless - even if she knew the correct direction, what could she do?

There were steep cliffs all around, and she had no skills or experience in climbing. Looking at the towering, mirror-like cliffs, Chen Ruotong felt dizzy.

There were extremely steep cliffs on both sides, like two insurmountable high walls, trapping her in this small area.

Although the front and rear seemed feasible, they were actually dense bushes and thorns that made it difficult to move forward.

Chen Ruotong couldn't help but fall into deep thought: Is she really going to be trapped here forever? She was unwilling to give up, and secretly told herself that she must find a way out.

She has to go home as soon as possible, her family must be so anxious!

Chen Mansion

When Mrs. Chen woke up in the morning, she noticed that her right eyelid was twitching constantly. As the saying goes, "Left eye twitching means good fortune, right eye twitching means disaster."

Old Mrs. Chen is a very superstitious person. After all, even her precious granddaughter has had her heart replaced. Such bizarre things have happened before our eyes. Is there anything in this world that we cannot believe?

We had clearly agreed yesterday that he would return in the evening, but why is it that a whole night has passed and there is still no sign of him?

Could it be that something happened at Zhuangzi's place that delayed the trip? With such doubts and concerns, Old Lady Chen quickly sent Qi Da to Zhuangzi to find out what was going on.

However, when Qi Da arrived at Zhuangzi and asked Qi Qi there about the situation, the answer he got made him panic - it turned out that the Fourth Young Master had already set out to return to the city as early as yesterday evening!

After hearing the news, Qi Da suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. Without having time to think about it, he immediately went straight to Zhishan Academy after returning to the city, intending to seek help from Qiao Zien.

After hearing what Qi Da said, Qiao Zien felt something was wrong.

There is no doubt that Guchuan must have met with an accident! Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that he was taken away by someone.

After all, if it was just an ordinary danger, with Furukawa's ability, he could hide in the space to avoid danger, and then wait until dawn to return safely.

Thinking of this, Qiao Zien became extremely anxious and quickly shouted to Qi Da: "Qi Da, there is no time to lose! You immediately go to the government office to find Prefect Zhang and ask him to quickly send people to the outside of the west city, especially to search carefully around the road leading to the manor. Don't miss any clues! I will go ahead to find someone." After that, Qiao Zien jumped on his horse and galloped towards the outside of the west city.

The sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky, as if racing against time. However, just when Qiao Zien was halfway through the journey, a shocking scene suddenly appeared before his eyes - several feather arrows were scattered on the ground, and there were still spots of blood next to them.

What is even more striking is that the two deep and shallow ruts are clearly visible. They extend straight to the north like a ferocious giant python.

Seeing this, Qiao Zien became more and more anxious. He knew that every second counted, so he whipped the horse hard, driving the horse under his crotch to speed up and gallop northward. In the blink of an eye, Qiao Zien and the horse merged into one, like a flash of lightning breaking through the sky...

Following the wheel tracks, Qiao Zien ran to the edge of the cliff, pulled the reins, and jumped off the horse.

This is the Heartbreak Cliff. Below is a bottomless abyss. If you fall down, you will be crushed to pieces. How is Gu Chuan now? At the moment of falling, did he enter the space? He must be fine, fine...

Qiao Zien kept comforting herself in her heart, but her body was shaking slightly.

He lay on the edge of the cliff and looked down. It was foggy and he couldn't see anything clearly. He tried to shout, "Is Guchuan down there? If you can hear me, answer me..."

When the sound reached the bottom of the valley, it had disappeared.

Qiao Zien's voice was hoarse from shouting, but she didn't hear Gu Chuan's answer.

"How could this happen? Gu Chuan will be fine. He is blessed with a long life. He has space, so nothing will happen to him..." Before she knew it, Qiao Zien was crying like rain.

Chen Ruotong shouted loudly at the sky from the bottom of the cliff: "Is there anyone up there? Can you hear me? Help! I'm here..."

Her voice became weaker and weaker, and finally she gave up. Who could hear her on such a high cliff? My family should be able to find her here by following the wheel tracks, right?

When she got tired of shouting, she went into the space to rest, eat something, drink some water, and gather some strength before continuing to shout after a while.

"How can I let the people up there know that I'm down there? Oh, why am I so stupid? There are hydrogen balloons in the children's area of ​​the store. I can write something on the balloons, release them, and let them float into the air. If there are people up there, they will notice the balloons, right? Then I'll be saved, right?

It was a waste of effort just now. I have to use my brain all the time. Is this crazy?" Chen Ruotong said to herself while sitting on the chair in the space.

She immediately teleported to the children's area, took a bunch of balloons, and wrote on them with a watercolor pen, "Mr. Chen Si is at the bottom of the cliff, hurry up and save me!"

Chen Ruotong left the space, released the bunch of balloons, and waited quietly for rescue at the bottom of the cliff.

Qiao Zien was tired and sat on the edge of the cliff, feeling very uncomfortable. He was trying to find a way to get down to the bottom of the valley.

Just when he was frowning and sad, a bunch of balloons floated up.

Qiao Zien was overjoyed, as this meant that Gu Chuan was at the bottom of the cliff and he was safe and sound.

Qiao Zien was relieved at this time. He stood up, immediately rode his horse and rushed back. He wanted to call for help, get a rope, and go down to rescue Gu Chuan.

He had just ridden a short distance when Magistrate Zhang, accompanied by a large number of yamen runners and members of the Chen family, rushed over.

Chen Jianshu came with his three sons, and Old Man Chen and Old Lady Chen were left at home, waiting quietly for news.

Zhang Zhifu and Chen Jianshu asked anxiously and fearfully, "Have you found Guchuan? Is he? Did he fall off the cliff?"

Qiao Zien comforted them, "Master Zhang, Uncle Chen, brothers, don't worry, Guchuan is at the bottom of the cliff, he's safe! Did you bring a rope? Zien is going to go down and bring Guchuan up!"
