Marriage in crisis

Deng Jiafeng shouted, "It's no use. We can't hold on any longer here... We can't hold on any longer..."

There was a hint of desperation in his voice, and it was choking.

"It's too late..." Chi Xi said, and then shouted to Deng Jiafeng, "Hold on a little longer, I'll go downstairs to stop the child and reduce the power..."

“Chi Xi…” Before I could finish my shout or finish my words, she had already jumped down, “Chi Xi…”

I didn't dare to relax even a bit, but fear overwhelmed me like a tidal wave. I whimpered, "...Chi Xi!"

At this moment, the reinforcements had already rushed up the steep slope, and I suddenly saw hope, "Hurry... someone come..."

Several strong men came and held the tree trunk together.

I was replaced. I didn't care about my aching ankle or my peeling hands, I ran to the edge of the cliff, lying there looking down.

I shouted loudly, "Chi Xi... the reinforcements are here, be careful..."

There was only a ray of light left in the sky, as if covered by a layer of gray gauze. Everything was gray, especially the river, which seemed foggy.

And in the other side of my sight, I can still see that not far below is where Bai Wenzhuo fell, and there are still white waves rolling there...

No, it should be colored waves. Something is constantly surging in the water, as if it is fighting for something. It's creepy, and I can instinctively think of what's going on...

I didn't dare to look anymore and looked away.

But here, it's even more thrilling.

Because I saw that in the dim light, as Chi Xi collapsed here, he picked up the tree stump that was not completely buried, and moved it downwards carefully, and he was almost at the child's position.

The sight of her crumbling figure frightened me to death. I stared wide-eyed as hard as I could, fearing that Chi Xi would fall if I blinked. My voice got stuck in my throat, and I held it back for fear of distracting her and making a mistake.

Even I forgot to breathe.

Finally she reached the position of the children. The two children were hanging on the rope, one up and one down, with some distance in between, so the swinging forces were not synchronized, which increased the power above.

The child did not stop swinging, even if he pulled the tree trunk upwards, the trunk would stick out, and it would be even more dangerous below, because the rope was too thin.

This was enough to show that the damn Bai Wenzhuo never thought that they would come up alive.

This beast, it would be too easy for her to die like this.

I clung to the edge of the cliff tightly, watching Chi Xi trying to reach out and grab the child above. I couldn't see clearly which one was above, Gina Ami's son, or our Tingnan.

But I realized that as long as she could hold this and stop it from shaking further, the ones below would stop swinging drastically accordingly, which would also reduce the burden on the thin rope.

However, the swing amplitude of the upper one was not as large as that of the lower one, and Chi Xi's position was just a little bit short and he could not reach the child.

Everyone was sweating coldly, trying to find a way to adjust the treetops so that they could get closer to Chixi.

However, the downward force of the Chixi tree trunk is quite large. Not to mention the two swinging children hanging on it, the weight of the tree itself plus the gravity of the earth actually increases exponentially. Although many people have come, the situation is much more serious than what we just faced.

Sure enough, the tree trunk was moved in a different direction, and the part where Deng Jiafeng was stuck collapsed instantly.

Deng Jiafeng was hung on the tree all of a sudden. Everyone screamed in surprise. The collapsed soil and rocks fell rapidly, and the children below sobbed and screamed again.

But I saw that Chi Xi had already grabbed the child.

I was overjoyed, opened my mouth and widened my eyes, but didn't dare to do anything.

Someone shouted, "We caught the child! We caught him..."

"Quick, pull him up!"

They quickly pulled up Deng Jiafeng who was hanging on the tree trunk. I took a look and saw that he was seriously injured, with both his arms covered in blood.

I instinctively grabbed the edge of the cliff and straightened my body. At this moment, I felt my stomach sinking. It must be because I was scared, as I usually get dizzy at heights.

But I couldn't care less, I saw that although Chi Xi had pulled the child, her posture was very forced. She held the child and carefully adjusted her position to face more outward so that she could look down smoothly.

I just felt my butt a little sore after watching it.
