Chapter 340 (2/2)
”I can't guarantee whether the stream leads us to the place we want to go, but from the direction we come, the stream should not lead to the sea, but to the inland. This is my general judgment. As for whether the fact is true, I'm not 100% sure.” Liu Qian patiently answered Han Guangming.
”If you get lost in the wild jungle, do you have to follow the stream?” Han Guangming asked Liu Gan again.
”It's very possible to follow the stream out of the jungle. Although it's not the fastest and safest route, it's more or less a road. It's not easy to get lost. It's better than bumping around.” Liu Gan nodded.
”Well, I see, Xie LiuYe” Han Guangming's happy expression.
”It's been hard for you these days. If it weren't for you, I couldn't hold on until now.” Liu Qian reached out and patted Han Guangming on the shoulder.
”Don't say that, Mr. Liu. We can live to this day only by following Mr. Liu. We can rise to the current level. What I have done for Mr. Liu these days is far from being able to repay Mr. Liu's kindness to me.” Han Guangming replied to Liu Gan with a red face.
”Captain Han grew up very fast. Previously, he was just a college student in my eyes. Now he really has the courage of the captain. Thanks to him these days, when we don't know what to do, he was making decisions for us, which made us last so long.” Zhao Meng heard their dialogue and came close to praise Han Guangming.
”OK, it's not all by Lord Liu's estimation that we can spend these days safely.” Han Guangming was even more embarrassed and hit Zhao Meng with his fist.
After they followed the stream for about an hour and a half, the murmur of the stream turned into a roar. Liu Qian felt a little bad. After walking a section of the way, unexpectedly, the stream turned into a waterfall and fell vertically into a very steep cliff in front.
The vertical height of the cliff seems to be at least more than 100 meters. It is difficult to go down, but if you find a way to detour, it is estimated that it will take at least one or two more days, and you may not be able to find a way around nearby.
Liu Qian still decided to slide down the waterfall. It was very difficult to climb down directly. The waterfall impacted the rock surface very smoothly, and there was no place for pedals and hands to grasp, so he had to find a rope that could be used for rapid descent.
After looking around, Liu Gan decided to use local materials. The tenacity of the vines growing around the big trees in the jungle is amazing. They are the best material for making downhill ropes. Liu Qian climbed up some big trees and cut many vines with a dagger. After throwing them on the ground, he guided Han Guangming and others to tightly wrap them together in some way. As long as the vine is more than 100 meters long, the team members can climb down the cliff waterfall safely along it.
Liu Qian tied one end of the connected vine to the body of a big tree and threw the other end down. Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking at the bottom of the cliff, the vines really extend to the bottom of the cliff and can begin to slide down. To be continued.
