[Tomb Raiders Notes] The date has not been changed

Chapter 177

This is the most dangerous climb of the trip.

Not only stumbled and fell, but also faced the danger of being hit by the rolling rocks above.

It was still Xiaohua who explored the way first, and then hung the rope down. The five of us were left on the rope in the order of the little brother, the fat man, me, A Kang, and the blind man, keeping a safe distance of three meters between each of us.

Now we are really grasshoppers on a rope. Generally speaking, climbing is not done in a group, but in order in groups, but we really have no time, so we have no choice.Although it is said that the risk factor has increased, it can only be said to be a helpless move.

After lying down on the rock wall, the sound of the water is deafening, and it is basically impossible to communicate verbally, let alone rope language.If I want to communicate, I can only use the light, but at this time I can't tell the difference, I can only look at it, and when I am fully focused, the ability to convey the light language is also very limited.

The water fell on me like crazy. I don’t know if it’s rain or river water. Soon my clothes were soaked and I couldn’t even open my eyes. But I had to open my eyes again. Climbing with my eyes closed is too dangerous .

The endless soreness and dryness made me want to let go of my hands, but the desire to survive overcame everything.In the end, I chose to squint my eyes, try not to look up, grasp the rope with both hands, and climb up bit by bit.

In the dim cave, the six of us hung precariously on a rope, surrounded by roaring waterfalls, and rough and cold rocks under our feet.This kind of scene may only be comparable to that of Yama's little ghost who escaped from hell.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a sharp flash of light. I didn't pay attention at first, but the sharp light flashed and flashed, even if it was only in the corner of the eye, it finally attracted my attention, and then I realized that it was Xiaohua's lamp language, he is telling us that there is danger.

My heart tightened. At such a time, there would be a dangerous signal. Could it be that the crow's mouth of the fat man really hit the mark?

There was a loud bang, and the rolling rocks answered my questions. I don't know which person swayed too much when dodging, even shaking the whole rope dangerously.The boulder rubbed against my toes. I didn't feel any pain, but I felt a little numb all over.

"Don't f*ck move around!" The fat man above roared angrily, even if it reached me, the voice was still quite loud, and he said something vaguely later, which was covered by the sound of water and could not be heard clearly, but this roar After coming out, at any rate, it has the effect of suppressing the market.

We continued to go up, and stones began to fall continuously. These gravels were only the size of a fist, but the first stone that was dropped just now was bigger than my body, and there will be more fierce stones behind.

This rope bears the weight of the five of us. Although there are small flowers on it, it is not easy for him to try to prevent us from being hit by falling rocks. Most of the things still need to be handled by ourselves.

Xiaohua's flashing lights on it are like lightning, which means it is very obvious and extremely dangerous. In fact, I don't need him to tell me, because the falling stones are gradually not just gravel, but mud and sand, which means that it is no longer A simple rockfall turned into a mudslide.

If the mudslide really rushes down, by then, we can only save our own lives, and we can run a few times, which is the worst situation, so even if our bodies are soaked in water and our faces are covered with sand, we I can only grit my teeth and try my best to go up.When the mudslide falls completely, those who are still on the rope will not have the slightest chance of surviving.

The light is getting brighter and brighter, that is to say, it is getting closer and closer to me. Finally, Xiaohua made the first short strobe, which means that the little brother has reached the edge, and at this time I can already feel the raindrops pouring on me. Above the head, the outside does not know the time, but it is as dark as the night.

The rain covered my face, the mud covered my face, and then the fat man climbed up. I heard him yelling at me to cheer up, and at the same time, my brother was helping to draw the rope.

My hand finally climbed to the edge of the rock wall, my little brother pulled me up, I was limp on the ground, when I looked back down, my heart suddenly hit.

Akang should have been about three meters below me, but looking at it this way, he was at least five meters away from the top of the cliff.

He was holding the rope tightly, trembling all over, I could see the black glasses hanging well below him, but he couldn't move forward at all.

"It's broken." I suddenly remembered, "He's afraid of heights."

Akang was unable to pass on the ice bridge before because he was afraid of heights, but at this juncture, such a thing happened again.

The sand and gravel bones at my feet were rolling, unscrupulously proclaiming the arrival of mudslides.

This time we did not fasten the safety buckle on our thighs and waist and abdomen as usual, because the environment is too dangerous, and the safety buckle will not save us if we slip, so the safety buckle is directly stuck on the wrist. Now, Akang has Shaking to the point where he was able to hold on to the rope almost entirely by the carabiner on his wrist.

"Pull the rope up!" I yelled.

"It can't be pulled." Xiaohua said.

Only then did I realize that the fixed stakes had been disconnected at some point, and it was entirely with the strength of Xiaohua and Poker Fing that the rope was kept from being blown into the abyss by the wind and rain, but it was difficult to pull it up.

I joined the team pulling upwards, but the wind became more and more violent, the rope swayed in the wind, and Akang and the black glasses fell into the water curtain from time to time.

At an altitude of nearly 30 meters, there was heavy wind and rain, and his life was hanging by a rope. Akang didn't even dare to open his eyes, let alone climb up.

"Hurry up!" the fat man roared, "The mountain torrent over there has already come down! There are still ten seconds at most!"

"Pull hard!" Xiaohua has already broken her voice, and we all exerted all our strength. The rope is against the wind like a huge swing, but it is difficult to move forward. , also looks so weak.

We are all struggling to improve, but I know in my heart that black glasses have a chance.

As long as he is determined to kill Akang, we can still pick him up at this distance, and it only takes five seconds at most.

I don't think black glasses will be so mother-in-law.

However, at the same time that this idea flashed in my mind, something that shocked me happened.

Akang, who was trembling like a sieve, suddenly pulled out a short knife with his left hand that was not tied with a safety buckle, and then chopped it down.

The rope buckle flew down together with a piece of his flesh, and the blood spattered with a "shua".

With his hands off the rope, Akang was already unprotected. Under the strong wind and sand, he disappeared into the darkness like a small piece of paper.
