Chapter 171: She blames herself for not protecting her well

. At this moment, Lu Tingyuan on the cliff has almost eliminated the bandits on the opposite side.

Most of these bandits are former refugees. Although they have some skills and can deal with unarmed ordinary people, they are not good enough for those who have practiced hard for several years such as Sun Erniang and Bald Tou.

However, the bearded man still had some skills. He fought with Lu Tingyuan for a long time, and was finally cut in the leg by Lu Tingyuan's sword. It wasn't that he couldn't be killed, but it was still useful to keep him.

These bandits must have a lair nearby. I don't know how many things they have robbed. Those things can be found and sent to the border to the soldiers.

He handed the beard to Sun Sanniang and asked Sun Sanniang to ask him about his lair, and then take people to see if there was any food, bedding, etc. in the lair. If there was any, they would all be loaded onto the carriage.

Sun Erniang was watching over the carriage.

After the distribution was completed, Lu Tingyuan immediately led people down the cliff. Although he knew that Manman was not in danger, he couldn't see Manman and was very worried.

Even if Manman wouldn't be injured on such a high cliff, she would be scared by herself! How helpless she would be without him by her side.

Their location is almost vertical to the bottom of the cliff, and they need to go around to the opposite side before they can go down.

It gets dark very early in winter, so Lu Tingyuan didn't dare to delay. After looking at the map to determine where to go, he set off immediately.

After walking for three kilometers and going around to the opposite side of the road section, we found a relatively less steep place where people could at least walk.

Liang Manman, who was under the cliff, knew that Lu Tingyuan would definitely bring someone to find him, so he stopped running around, released the carriage, and sat in the carriage with Liang Ping to wait for them.

She was a little scared to be alone in the wilderness, so she asked her younger brother to accompany her for a while. When Lu Tingyuan and the others came to find him, Liang Ping went into the space again and asked Liang An to take him home.

The cliff was steep and the road was difficult to navigate. It took Lu Tingyuan and the others an hour and a half to reach the bottom of the cliff. Along the way, he remained silent because of worry.

The servants behind him didn't know the existence of space, and they were even more uncertain. They looked at their master in silence, and they didn't dare to say a word. They just lowered their heads and looked at their feet, hoping that Madam would be safe and find Madam soon.

But as they came down, they saw such a steep cliff, and their hope became increasingly dim. They even thought...

After all, if someone falls off such a high cliff, they will definitely be shattered to pieces!

However, they did not dare to say this, so they had no choice but to follow their master's footsteps.

The bottom of the cliff is in the shape of a basin, surrounded by mountains, but the terrain below is very flat.

It was starting to get dark, and the crows were croaking, accompanied by the gloomy cold wind, which made people shudder.

Lu Tingyuan's worry increased even more. Where is she? She must be scared of this eerie atmosphere, right?

After all, I still blame myself for not protecting her!

With great anxiety in his heart but no emotion on his face, he asked everyone to light torches. The light of the torches illuminated the surroundings, but could not shine far.

He shouted loudly: "Manman..."

The servants followed and shouted: "Madam, where are you?"

"Madam..."

The shout followed the wind and blew into the carriage. Liang Manman and Liang Ping both heard it, and someone came to find them. , Liang Ping could no longer stay, entered the space, and returned home through Liang An.

Liang Manman stuck her head out and saw a pile of torches in the distance. She knew that it was Lu Tingyuan and the others who had brought them.

"Brother Lu, I'm here!"

Lu Tingyuan was greatly relieved when he heard her voice. Before, he thought she would be fine, but he never saw it with his own eyes.

Hearing her voice now, he felt at ease. Thinking that she might be scared if she stayed down there, he raised his feet and ran towards Liang Manman. The wind whistled in his ears, but he could only hear her voice. .

Seeing him running towards him, Liang Manman's eyes suddenly became sore, and he burst into tears. He must be worried about himself. He didn't know how he got down such a steep cliff.

With tears in his eyes, a pair of arms pulled him into a warm embrace.

The separation had only lasted for more than two hours, but in this wilderness environment full of uncertainties, this worry was particularly magnified.

Lu Tingyuan hugged the little man tightly in his arms and kept mumbling to himself.

"I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well. Manman, I'm sorry, you must be very scared."

Liang Manman was indeed scared, but she also knew that Lu Tingyuan must be more anxious than herself, and his inner worries and tensions were by no means less than hers .

"I don't blame you, it was just an accident."

"Blame me. I said I would protect you, but I still scared you. I'm sorry."

Liang Manman felt like he was being hugged so tightly that he almost couldn't breathe. His hand was so strong that it hurt her ribs.

She patted his back gently, "Okay, I'm fine."

When the group of people behind her saw that Madam was intact, their pupils trembled, and the expressions on their faces were extremely shocked.

Falling from such a high cliff and not getting hurt at all? Even the carriage and horse are intact? The servants couldn't help but look up at the cliff above, unable to see the top at a glance.

How is this done?

But being curious, no one asked any more questions. At this time, the best outcome was that the wife was safe.

Originally it was Liang Manman who fell off the cliff, but now she was the one comforting Lu Tingyuan.

He felt so guilty that even if she wasn't injured, he didn't want her to be frightened in the slightest!

"You're holding me so hard that I can't breathe."

After hearing this, Lu Tingyuan quickly let go of his arms and looked her up and down. After confirming that she was unharmed, his heart completely returned to his stomach.

Only now did Liang Manman have time to look at him carefully. His clothes were torn several times, and his face was scratched with a bloody mark from a branch. There was also a cut on the back of his hand when he fought with Beard. It was so cold that my blood froze now.

It's not a good place to stay too long, and it's not the time to treat wounds. Lu Tingyuan observed it when he came down. He went around seven or eight miles to the west, where he could pass the carriage. If he went from the west, he could directly intercept the front of the team.

This time Ali was driving the carriage, and twenty people were holding torches one after another. They had to leave this place as soon as possible. The mountains here are big, and they might encounter wild animals. In short, nothing could go wrong again.

Now that they were the only ones in the carriage, Liang Manman took out iodine and cotton swabs from the space, disinfected the wound on the back of Lu Tingyuan's hand, and then sprinkled the powder developed by Dr. Fang.

Although the wound is not serious, it is a long one that will be involved when the hand is opened and held. There is also a blood mark on the face, which should also be disinfected with wine.

Liang Manman stroked his face and said in a reproachful tone: "Look at you, you were running so fast, your clothes were scratched and your face was scratched," but

Lu Tingyuan didn't care, he was a big man, a small injury didn't matter, this kind of damage A wound that caused a little blood on the skin was not considered an injury at all in his eyes.

But Liang Manman felt heartbroken. This was her man, the father of her child. Even a minor injury was enough to make her worried.
