193 Someone Is at the Bottom of This Hill
The feeling of weightlessness made her heart tighten, and she subconsciously grabbed the tree trunk next to her.
Gu Qingxue steadied herself and watched as a piece of wet soil rolled down the hill.
A piece of soil caused many pieces of gravel and soil to roll down the hill. It looked extremely dangerous.
“I’m afraid this place is going to collapse.” Gu Qingxue tried the soil on the hillside under her feet and found that the soil on the hillside had become too soft due to the heavy rain. The hillside seemed to be unable to bear the heavy load and was about to throw the soil down.
“Friendly reminder, the host only has nine minutes left,” the little butler reminded her calmly.
Gu Qingxue frowned and was about to leave when she suddenly heard the sound of a flute coming from the hillside.
The sound of the flute was irregular, but only people could make it.
Someone was at the bottom of the hill!
Gu Qingxue thought that the person at the bottom was most likely her 9,000 points, and her eyes lit up immediately. She immediately said to the little housekeeper, “Little butler, take out all my climbing tools! Quick!”
In the next moment, all the fixtures, ropes, gloves, and other things that Gu Qingxue wanted appeared in front of her.
She quickly grabbed the ropes and tied up the three big trees. After making sure that the three big trees could bear the weight of 300 to 400 pounds, Gu Qingxue heard the voice of the housekeeper again.
“Warning, there are only six minutes left.”
Gu Qingxue gritted her teeth and tied the ropes around her waist with a professional knot.
Looking at the misty mountain slope, she took a deep breath and rushed down.
The hillside was more than 20 meters high. Gu Qingxue rushed to the bottom of the hillside quickly.
The moment she saw the ground, Gu Qingxue rolled down, slowing down her speed and rolling down from the hillside.
The sound of the flute was heard faintly. Gu Qingxue followed the sound and finally found a man lying in the blood not far away.
“There are still five minutes left.”
Hearing the little butler’s warning in her mind, Gu Qingxue gritted her teeth and rushed to the man’s side.
The man was wearing a black and blue brocade robe. His white cape had long been soaked in blood. At this moment, he tilted his head and used the last of his strength to blow the flute that fell to his lips.
Seeing the man’s face covered in blood, Gu Qingxue’s heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, this man had a strong will to survive and was smart enough. Otherwise, she would have really missed him today.
“Warning, there are only four minutes left.”
Gu Qingxue’s heart tightened. She was about to check the man’s injuries when she heard a crash.
A large piece of soil suddenly peeled off from the hillside beside her, followed by a second piece and a third piece. Gravel kept falling down, which made her heart tighten.
In a split second, she realized that the death of the patient that the young butler mentioned might not be due to severe injuries, but might also be due to an accident.
For example, death from a landslide!
After realizing this, Gu Qingxue quickly took off the bamboo hat on her head, tore off the man’s cloak, and carried him on her back.
The weight of a grown man almost crushed Gu Qingxue, but she could not care less. After tying the man with the rope, she gritted her teeth and used all her strength to pull the rope and climb up.
“There are only three minutes left,” the little butler continued to warn her.
“Don’t rush me!” Gu Qingxue wanted to drag the little butler out and give it a good beating. The skills she had trained in rock climbing in her previous life came in handy at this time. She stepped on those unstable rocks, she activated all the potential in her body.
The slope under her feet also slid down more and more.
