The sudden feeling of weightlessness from falling made it difficult for me to keep my balance for a while.

Lin Lezhi endured the pain and grasped the hanging vines, shortening the distance between himself and the mountain. He then moved his body as close to the mountain as possible, while using his toes to push against the mountain to release his force.

After descending for a distance, the speed of descent finally slowed down.

Lin Lezhi saw the right opportunity and immediately used his uninjured right hand to grab the cane. At the same time, he felt a supporting force on the side of his body, which allowed him to stop safely.

Lin Lezhi looked in the direction of the helping force and saw Xiao Yihuo with a cold face, as if he owed him money.

"Why did you come down here too?"

Before Lin Lezhi could open his mouth, Xiao Yihuo took the initiative and spoke with a hint of accusation in his words.

The tone sounded as if he was saying that he couldn't tell the difference between the situation and what was good and what was bad, and that he had to come down.

Good guy.

Isn't this the case of the evildoers complaining first?

"I say, Mr. Xiao, you are so shameless to ask me why I came down here too? If you had said a word, would I have come down here?"

Xiao Yihuo shifted his gaze slightly and said, "I just grabbed this vine as well. I felt that it was a little unusual, so I came down to take a look. Just as I was about to go back, you fell off."

"Bah, you're the one who fell down. I just slipped because I wasn't paying attention. Even if you didn't show up, I can handle it myself."

"Really?" Xiao Yihuo raised his eyes slightly and said, "Then I will let go."

"Wait... wait a minute!" Lin Lezhi looked down, then grabbed the cane in front of him with both hands, stretched it, and after making sure it was firm, he said, "Okay, take your hands away."

After Xiao Yihuo took his hand away, Lin Lezhi looked around. There was fog all around and he couldn't see anything. When Lin Lezhi retracted his gaze, he suddenly noticed that Xiao Yihuo, who was below and to his right, had nothing in his hand.

"You are really skilled and brave, aren't you afraid of falling?"

Lin Lezhi looked at Xiao Yihuo who was standing calmly by the mountain, and blurted out.

Xiao Yihuo looked at Lin Lezhi, raised the corners of his lips and said, "Of course I'm not a coward who doesn't even dare to let go, so I'm not afraid."

“Who are you talking about…!”

and many more……

Let go?

Following Xiao Yihuo's words, Lin Lezhi looked down at himself, then grabbed the vine and walked down to the same level as Xiao Yihuo's line of sight, and stretched his feet downward.

The toes touch the solid ground.

In other words, he was almost on the ground just now, but he grabbed the vine and talked to Xiao Yihuo for a long time, which made him lose face in front of Xiao Yihuo.

After both feet touched the ground, Lin Lezhi tried to tell himself to stay calm and took a deep breath, then he smiled and gritted his teeth and said, "Is your mouth made of gold? Will money fall if I say the ground below is flat?"

"Mr. Lin, what you said is really money-conscious."

"you…!"

"I just want to say that Master Lin has to give me a chance to speak. Besides, Master Lin just said that he can handle it. I think Master Lin is such a meticulous person that he must have discovered it. There is no need for me to remind him. Could it be that..."

Xiao Yihuo dragged out the words, looked at Lin Lezhi and said with a smile: "Just now, Master Lin said that he could handle it. Was he bluffing?"

"I...!" Lin Lezhi turned his eyes away, "I... I was just teasing you because I was afraid the atmosphere would be too tense. Naturally, I realized that there was flat ground below."

As he spoke, Lin Lezhi walked to the side, but after taking a few steps, his feet suddenly slipped as if the ground had collapsed. Fortunately, Xiao Yihuo was quick to support Lin Lezhi and prevent him from falling.

Then there was a clanging sound of something heavy rolling down from below.

"Mr. Lin is really a kind person. He has livened up the atmosphere several times."

"Come on, don't make sarcastic remarks at a time like this. I admit that I am not capable enough to handle it. Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for helping me just now, okay?"

"That's it?" Xiao Yihuo raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You are so insincere. I helped you twice."

When saying "twice", Xiao Yihuo deliberately raised his voice, and at the same time his eyes reminded Lin Lezhi of the clothes he was wearing.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Xiao has helped me twice. I will naturally remember these two favors in my heart and will never forget them. I will definitely repay Mr. Xiao for these two favors one day."

Lin Lezhi also placed emphasis on all words containing the word "two".

"Please tell me which way is safe."

After hearing Lin Lezhi's assurance, Xiao Yihuo seemed to have received a satisfactory answer, and finally let the matter go. He turned sideways and said, "Come this way, I just found something."

Lin Lezhi followed Xiao Yihuo. The road was not flat, and the direction they walked was not straight forward. When they reached a place, Xiao Yihuo walked down along the narrow mountain path.

Who on earth is Xiao Yihuo? He can walk on such a rugged terrain as if it were flat ground. If he hadn't followed Xiao Yihuo, he would have fallen with every step.

It took about ten minutes to walk down the rugged mountain path.

As we kept walking down, the fog became thicker and visibility was less than one meter.

"arrive."

As he spoke, Xiao Yihuo made way for him. Lin Lezhi looked carefully and then his eyes darkened. On the mountain in front of him, there was a large area of ​​vines and some rotten wood.

Following the slight shaking sound, Lin Lezhi looked up and saw a long piece of wood hanging on a vine above him. It was shaking slightly and tiny scratches could be seen on the vine.

After being affected by natural factors such as wind, sun and rain, most of the wood has become rotten, cracked and deformed, and there are a lot of vines clinging around it, but the original appearance can still be vaguely recognized.

The number of vines far exceeds the amount of wood piled here, like a natural woven net covering the thick wood below.

It obviously took a long time for such landform to form.

The scene before my eyes was shocking enough.

But it cannot cover up the facts hidden under the huge network.

If you look closely at the cut, you will easily find that the cut at one end of these three-foot-long pieces of wood is the same size as the wood embedded in the mountain just now.

Thinking about the path Xiao Yihuo had taken him on just now, Lin Lezhi constructed a rough direction in his mind, then looked at the rotten wood swaying on the vines and said with deep eyes: "I accidentally stepped on something that rolled down just now. Are these the woods?"
