Chapter 51 The Broken Rope

    The four people who ate a whole pot of hot and sour noodles were sweating profusely, but the soup was not very hungry. One bowl for each person was half full at most. With the spicy soup, each ate a steamed bun. lunch.

    After eating, Ning Qiyan went in to prepare food for Du Dabao and the others. Ning Xiaowen took a look at the chickens and ducks that were hugging their nests to make sure they were all right before returning to the cave.

    The four of them had nothing to do in the afternoon, playing cards with three decks of poker to pass the time.

    It was past three o'clock in the afternoon, and Ning Qiyan frowned a little when he didn't see anyone who came over to inspect.

    "What's wrong?" Seeing Ning Qiyan put down his cards, Ning Xiaowen asked.

    Du Cheng saw Ning Qiyan's movement of looking at his watch before, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew what he was thinking.

    "Let's wait and see, our house is the innermost one in this area, maybe it's delayed by the previous ones."

    Ning Qiyan nodded, and was about to play a card when he heard a knock on the door.

    Huzi stopped Ning Xiaowen who was about to get up, "I'll go." Then he put on his shoes, cotton clothes and coat, and then opened the cave door.

    "Brother Beard." As soon as the door opened, Wang Yang and Ke Chengwei, who were shivering from the cold, came in and greeted Beard, only to see Ning Qiyan and the others sitting on the kang.

    "Come here quickly." Ning Xiaowen waved to them, and moved back to make room for them.

    Wang Yang and the others were not polite, they took off their snow-stained coats and sat up.

    "Why did you come out in such a cold day? Where's Wang Zhixiang?" Ning Xiaowen poured a glass of water for the two and asked casually.

    Wang Yang and Ke Chengwei took the water and did not respond, but looked at each other, as if hesitating.

    Ning Qiyan looked at the two of them, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Did the inspectors go to your house?"

    Wang Yang drank his saliva before saying, "Maybe...can't come?"

    "What do you say?" Ning Qiyan After a pause, he asked directly. Even Du Cheng, who had been silent all this time, frowned.

    Wang Yang looked at them, "Just now, we saw that it was getting dark, and no one came over, so we went out to have a look. You also know that my cave is not far from the safety rope they connected before. The rope is bright red, even if it snows heavily, you can still see it from a long distance. But when I looked at it just now, the rope... seemed to be broken."

    "Broken?" Ning Qiyan straightened up all of a sudden, "It's definitely broken Is it covered by snow?"

    Wang Yang hesitated, but Ke Chengwei shook his head: "It should be broken. The end of the safety rope is connected to the water station and is close to us. That is to say, this section of safety rope is invisible. The rope in the far place is still there. The rope they set up was so high back then, at least two and a half meters above the ground, and it is impossible for the snow to submerge that high now."
