Because of exerting too much physical energy and lack of oxygen supply due to being underwater for too long, Jiang Xuecheng's face had turned pale.
Obviously, his physical condition was reaching its limit.
He gritted his teeth and tried to climb up the river bank nearby, but his body was already too heavy to bear in throwing Su Wan to the shore!
After a futile struggle, Jiang Xuecheng fell down the waterfall!
The waves formed by the waterfall came with great force and hit Jiang Xuecheng in the face.
The rushing waterfall and the steep stone wall collided with each other, creating splashes of water all over the sky, like a brocade woven by a fairy floating down, flashing thousands of silver rays of light.
The powerful gravity pressed down on Jiang Xuecheng, and he fell straight down along with the rushing waterfall.
Although Jiang Xuecheng's body was covered in mud and his hair was a mess, he was still indescribably handsome despite his dishevel.
Is he going to die
The sound of rushing water filled his ears, and the sunlight flickered, shining through the rippling water onto Jiang Xuecheng.
Jiang Xuecheng coughed twice and spat out the muddy water that had choked his throat.
This man is a mysophobe. Even in such a precarious situation, he cannot tolerate swallowing mud and water.
At this moment, compared to death, the first thought that came to my mind was not fear, but overwhelming relief.
Fortunately, the person who fell was not Su Wan!
Jiang Xuecheng's face turned pale. In a moment of weightlessness, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a horizontal tree two meters away!
The tree seemed to have grown out of the cliffs, although it was not in a good location, lacking both sunlight and soil, and was obviously lacking in nutrition.
But judging from the thickness of the branch, it should not be a problem to hold up an adult man of balanced weight like me for a short period of time!
After this thought came to his mind, Jiang Xuecheng acted decisively and instantly used all his strength to lean to the side from his current position, and then grabbed it.
The branches of the tree were very rough, and coupled with the force of the fall, blood instantly flowed from the man's slender palm.
A needle-like pain came, and the strange rouge-like liquid kept falling on the palm of the hand, and was washed away by the continuous splashing water.
Because of the impact of the waterfall, Jiang Xuecheng felt that the pain seemed to be magnified ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times.
Even so, Jiang Xuecheng still held on to the branch tightly, not letting go at all.
The expression on his angular face was extremely resolute, without any trace of fear of facing the threat of death.
—Su Wan is still up there. She has already inhaled too much water. If she is not rescued in time, she will be in great danger even if she reaches the shore.
So, he did not seek death, but only sought life.
And it’s for the sake of both him and Su Wan staying alive!
The flickering light of the sky shone on Jiang Xuecheng's face, and his dark eyes flashed, shockingly bright.
Jiang Xuecheng looked a little stern. He looked towards the stone wall not far away and saw several long green vines.
The green vine seemed very thick. He wondered if it was strong enough to bear his weight.
Jiang Xuecheng thought for two seconds, and suddenly, he heard a very slight clicking sound.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked up with extreme caution, only to see that the branch he was climbing had cracked in a small part.
If he doesn't find the next load-bearing object, he might really die here!
never mind!
Don’t consider it!
Jiang Xuecheng narrowed his narrow eyes and quickly made a bold decision. He leaped up and grabbed the vine with great precision.
Probably because it has been washed by waterfalls for many years, this vine is very slippery to hold on to. If his life is in danger, Jiang Xuecheng would almost fail to catch it even if he used his greatest strength!
For a moment, Jiang Xuecheng was unable to stabilize his center of gravity, and his slender body swayed along the cliff.
The rushing water hit Jiang Xuecheng's face, it was cold and painful.
Jiang Xuecheng felt that too much water had entered his eyes and he could hardly see clearly.
He pursed his lips, forced himself to suppress all the discomfort, and kept climbing up by grabbing the vines.
The strong smell of blood reached Jiang Xuecheng's nose, making him sober up a lot.
He climbed up the waterfall as fast as he could.
No matter what, nothing can happen to Su Wan...
She was still waiting for him to rescue her...
Although blood was flowing on his palms, Jiang Xuecheng seemed not to notice it at all, and kept going up with an unshakable belief.
Can't stop.
Because stopping means relaxing, it means human life.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Xuecheng finally climbed to the top of the waterfall and stumbled towards the river bank.
A slender figure instantly appeared in the somewhat blurry eyes.
Su Wan just lay on the ground, her skirt wrinkled and covered in mud.
She really hasn't woken up yet.
Jiang Xuecheng reached out and wiped the water off his face, then rushed towards Su Wan like a sharp arrow.
Because he used too much force, he staggered, his knees went weak, and he fell to his knees in front of Su Wan.
A small jagged stone pierced through Jiang Xuecheng's trousers and went straight into his knee.
A piercing pain came from his knee, but Jiang Xuecheng didn't even frown. He just threw the sharp stone away without bandaging himself.
He bent down, constantly recalling the first aid knowledge in his mind, then tore off Su Wan's tattered clothes and put his hand on Su Wan's stomach.
Then he lowered his head and began to give Su Wan artificial respiration.
…
Su Wan felt a dull pain in her chest, as if a monster was pressing down on her, making it difficult for her to breathe.
In a daze, Su Wan felt a faint light and shadow, and someone was calling her name anxiously in her ear.
Because of her blurred consciousness, Su Wan could no longer tell whether the person calling her was a man or a woman.
I just felt that the other party's voice was extremely urgent, with an indescribable panic.
who is it
Su Wan's body shook violently, she choked twice, and unconsciously spat out several mouthfuls of water.
After spitting out the dirty water, Su Wan felt relaxed, but still extremely tired, as if his body was filled with lead and was extremely heavy.
Su Wan opened his eyes reluctantly, and in his unclear vision, he saw a disheveled handsome face.
Su Wan blinked again, and it was much clearer now.
Jiang Xuecheng's face was reflected in the fluttering light and shadow. Although his eyebrows and eyes were still clear, they were covered with mud and water, and even some messy grass leaves.
Is this really Jiang Xuecheng? !
"Wanwan, you finally woke up!"
Seeing Su Wan open his eyes, Jiang Xuecheng felt an indescribable surprise in his heart, which made him unable to speak fluently!
“That’s… great!”
Without thinking, he immediately hugged Su Wan tightly, as if Su Wan was a priceless treasure in his heart.
