Chapter 18 Coaxing people like coaxing children

On a small ledge more than two meters high, a tall man carrying a little girl is climbing up. Unlike his usual speed, he is very careful every time he lands and climbs on this ledge with a large inclination angle and few footholds, as if he is worried about something.

Jiang Youyou's hands and feet are tightly wrapped around Geng Shu, holding a trusting but uneasy heart. She dares not speak or breathe too hard, and is very afraid that she will disturb the man who is climbing.

However, even if she tried hard to control herself, she had a high fever and could not get treatment. She ran so fast that her body could not bear the shock and excitement in a short period of time. She was distracted and her tightly entangled hands and feet loosened. She seemed to fall off the man.

Geng Shu, who had been paying attention to the movements behind him, was so sharp that when Jiang Youyou showed signs of getting out of the way, he turned his hand to another fulcrum for climbing without hesitation and held the woman on his back tightly to prevent her from falling.

However, although the person was saved, the body slid down due to the unbalanced force at this moment. Jiang Youyou, whose head was so dizzy that she was about to faint, was shocked by the sudden change. She held Geng Shu's neck tightly with both hands by consciousness, and then quickly reacted and loosened her hands, while closing her eyes, waiting for the pain of falling.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

A low and soothing voice came over. Jiang Youyou opened her eyes, but met Geng Shu's face, which was firm and calm, and showed an unquestionable strength.

Looking up, his five fingers were firmly embedded in the mud wall, leaving a half-meter long scratch on it, stained with a little red.

"Geng Shu..." Jiang Youyou's eyes suddenly turned red, and he was full of self-blame and guilt at the face so close to him. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have suffered such an injury.

For the first time, she felt that she was a troublemaker and would only bring him unnecessary trouble.

Thinking of this, Jiang Youyou lowered her head, feeling extremely depressed.

But Geng Shu just thought she was scared, and didn't delay any longer, and climbed up quickly.

This time he was worried that she would fall down again like just now, so he didn't dare to let go. He held her with one hand and moved with one hand and two feet. He had experience in military training, and he had suffered a lot of hardships and training. Even though it was a little difficult at the beginning, he quickly adjusted himself and climbed up with one hand regardless of Jiang Youyou's objection.

It was easier to climb when approaching the edge. This time, with Jiang Youyou half holding her breath and biting her lips to stay awake, Geng Shu climbed up safely.

As soon as he got up, the black snake that was staying on the side swam over and circled around Geng Shu, spitting out its long and narrow tongue. It was unclear whether it was happy that its owner had climbed up or urging him to go back quickly.

Geng Shu gently kicked the snake to make it move away, and then put Jiang Youyou down from his back, "Wait for me here for a while."

The wild boar weighing more than 100 kilograms had thick skin, thick flesh and a lot of blood. In just a moment, the pig blood was all over the ground, and the smell was very strong. If the smell was not covered up temporarily, it would easily attract more wild animals and it would be unsafe.

So Geng Shu had to deal with it temporarily.

He moved quickly, plugging the hole made by the bullet while covering the pig blood with mud, and pulling a bunch of strong-smelling grass to cover it. It took less than five minutes to finish everything, and then he quickly walked to Jiang Youyou and wanted to carry her down the mountain to see a doctor.
