Chapter 964: The Story of Ling and Heng (227)
When Feng Ling saw that Li Nanheng’s face was also pale although it was not very obvious, a cold gleam flickered in her eyes.
Just now, when he was carrying her to escape from those people, she seemed to hear a gunshot and the bullet seemed to hit something.
But she was not sober at the time.
She looked at Li Nanheng’s back again and frowned, calling him feebly, “Boss…”
Hearing her voice, Li Nanheng looked back at her, and thinking that she was uncomfortable, he leaned over. “Where does it hurt? Hold on for a little while, OK?”
When the man leaned over, Feng Ling noticed that his movement was slower than normal and his shoulder was also stiff.
She smelled a thick smell of blood and saw the front part of his black clothes was wet.
He was all dressed in black, so she didn’t pay much attention to whether he was injured or not when she was unconscious.
She suddenly remembered that the moment when they jumped off the cliff, Li Nanheng had been holding her steadily without letting her fall, and even when they fell on the stone platform, he protected her with his body as the cushion.
It turned out that he was also injured and the bullet was probably still in his flesh, but he didn’t mention it at all.
Feng Ling didn’t speak but gazed at him. Li Nanheng lowered his head and looked at her, gazing at her increasingly pale face.
“Don’t be afraid. We will all be fine.” The man seemed to know what she was thinking of and whispered to her.
Feng Ling smiled. “Boss, did I drag you down… You told me before I came here that as long as I said that I didn’t want to come, you would not let me come here, but I insisted on coming here. I just didn’t expect that the military had no intention to let me go back alive. If I had known this earlier, I would not have come or I would not have let you find me and would have died peacefully alone…”
Li Nanheng’s eyes turned cold. “Even if you turn into dust, I will find you.”
Feng Ling looked at him and smiled, but soon, she blacked out. She was about to close her eyes and heard the man shouting, “Open your eyes!”
She frowned and tried her best to open her eyes to look at him.
He was so fierce.
Since you don’t let me sleep, then let’s talk.
Feng Ling closed her eyes, then opened it, took a deep breath and said, “I don’t think I have anything to leave. As for the apartment you bought me, I know you actually didn’t buy it with my money. Transfer the house to your name please… and…”
She slowly raised her hand and fumbled between her chest and neck. “Oh, I almost forgot, I didn’t take it with me. I had a small jade pendant that was attached to a red rope, on which the character “Feng” was engraved… After I die, just bury the jade pendant and my clothes in my grave… The jade pendant is in my suitcase… in the small mezzanine inside…”
“As long as you want, you may be able to find your biological parents through this jade pendant. Do it yourself. No one can do it for you. Stay alive. Cut this crap about your ‘death,’” Li Nanheng said coldly. “Either go back alive or die here. No one will bother to bury the jade pendant and your clothes for you, and no one will commemorate you if you die here! Stay alive, understood?”
Feng Ling smiled but her smile was sad. “I don’t want to find my parents. I’m not afraid of death. I don’t need any so-called parents to be sad for me, nor do I need anyone to commemorate me.”
“Really? What about me?” The man’s voice suddenly became cold.
Feng Ling paused and looked at him.
Then she suddenly asked in a low voice, “Why are you not surprised or angry at my secret at all?”
“Do you think it’s time to be surprised?” Li Nanheng knew she wanted to stay awake by talking, so he patiently talked with her while fixing the rattan to her waist.
Feng Ling looked blankly and her voice was low. “Then if you find that I am actually a girl not in this situation but some other time, what… will you do…”
“What will I do?” Li Nanheng snorted, gave her a cold look, and continued to fasten the rattan around her waist. Making sure that it was strong enough, he said coldly, “Stay alive! Go back, remove the snake venom, and become healthy again. I will let you know what I will do.”
Even in such an environment, hearing these words, Feng Ling blushed.
Then she tried to find various topics to talk to him to stay sober.
Half an hour later, however, she still completely lost consciousness and fell into his arms. He tried to wake her up but got no response.
——
The rock wall was very slippery. Li Nanheng was using two daggers to climb up. Every step he made, he poked a pit with the daggers and stepped on it so that he wouldn’t slide down when climbing up.
But this was very time-consuming.
Li Nanheng, avoiding the snakes crawling around, picked up Feng Ling from the stone platform, tied the rattan around their waists, and took her up. When he finally got up a bit, a snake suddenly tried to bite Feng Ling and he quickly slipped down to the original place.
She couldn’t afford being bitten by a snake again, even a non-venomous snake. Otherwise, she would definitely die!
The power of nature couldn’t be underestimated.
He climbed up very slowly. It was already afternoon.
When the base found he and Feng Ling’s cell phone signal and GPS positioning disappeared at the same time in the morning, they quickly sent a few helicopters over. Even if the helicopters flew at the fastest speed, it would take at least seven or eight hours. When they reached the top of the mountain, it was already three or four in the afternoon.
There were minefields on this mountain, so the helicopters couldn’t land at will. Otherwise, it might cause an explosion and then everyone in the mountain and the pilots would be buried in the fire.
