After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 826 Rescuing People from the Cliff: Clues Brought by Liu Ruyu

Upon hearing Jiang Hanying's words, Li Chengxiao deftly tied one end of the untied rope around his waist.

Step back, take a running start, jump—all in one smooth motion.

Jiang Hanying stood on the opposite cliff edge, watching him jump over and seizing the opportunity to pull him back.

After landing and making quick adjustments to the ropes binding him, Li Chengxiao put down his backpack and picked up the equipment he had used to drag the person up.

If the person is still alive, we definitely can't just leave them there; we have to rescue them first.

"I'm going down."

"Uh-huh."

Anyway, she's not going down this time. She just endured the stench to check if anyone was still alive, and she's still feeling a bit dizzy from the smell.

Using the location Li Jingmo had just given him, Li Chengxiao found the spot, faced the cliff, and jumped down. Stepping on the protrusions on the cliff, he lowered the rope and descended quickly.

A moment later, he saw the figure his brother had just spotted.

As the temperature dropped a little lower, the strong smell of blood blowing up dispelled some of the foul odor.

He first stepped on the horizontal, withered branch with one foot to test it, and after confirming that it was sturdy enough, he put his weight on it and then approached the body that was lying motionless on the branch.

Reach out and find the pulse on the side of your neck. When you press your fingertips on it, you first feel the cool skin, and then the extremely faint pulse.

Thankfully, he's not completely dead!
Whether they can be saved or not is another matter; the priority now is to get them up there.

The process of securing a person inevitably involves moving their body slightly, parting the face that was covered by long hair, and once Li Chengxiao could clearly see the face in front of him, he paused.

But he quickly sped up and secured himself, then looked up and tugged at the rope hanging down.

Jiang Hanying, who was waiting above, noticed that the rope was tugged a few times and immediately began to pull it upwards.

Just as they were about to step forward to help, they saw her easily grab a handful and pinch the crowd: "..."

It wasn't just the captain who was being pulled up; there was also someone who had fallen off a cliff and was critically injured and on the verge of death.

Now they had a fairly clear understanding of the strength of the person in front of them.

Soon, Jiang Hanying grabbed her cheap master's hand and pulled him up with a force.

Others rushed forward to help, lifting the person he had pulled up by his other hand.

Li Jingmo and the doctor each took one side of her, squatting on the ground and quickly conducting the examination.

Li Jingmo casually brushed aside the blood-soaked hair covering his face, revealing a face that was once fair but was now marred by several crisscrossing wounds.

The doctor frowned after seeing the face clearly.

When Li Jingmo took the first look, he couldn't help but glance at it again and exclaimed softly, "Why does this face look so familiar?"

Li Chengxiao had just untied the ropes binding him and was wiping his hands with disinfectant wipes when he heard this and said, "It's Liu Ruyu."

Jiang Hanying wasn't interested in the person who had been rescued; he was covered in blood and smelled terrible, so she didn't want to get close to him.

But as soon as I heard the name, I immediately craned my neck to look over.

"How is he? Is he still alive?"

"The injuries on his body were mostly caused by the impact of falling off the cliff. His face looks like it was deliberately slashed. He is now in an extremely weak state. Due to limited resources, it is uncertain whether he can survive."

"Do your best to save her." Li Chengxiao looked at Liu Ruyu lying motionless on the ground, thought for a moment and then suggested, "Given her current physical condition, ordinary injuries should be able to heal on their own, unless she doesn't have enough energy."

The doctor nodded, rummaged through his backpack, and simply pulled out all the energy supplements at once.

Inject the things that can be injected first, and for the things that can be drunk directly, use a syringe and a soft tube to pour them in.

After a series of actions, the person finally showed some response. Realizing that her battered body had finally regained some strength, and hearing the intermittent voices around her, Liu Ruyu struggled to open her eyelids.

Before, she had no choice but to hang on that withered tree and quietly wait to die. Now that she has finally been rescued, why would she still think about waiting to die when she is alive?

“Mr. Li, I’ve finally waited for you, I…”

Li Chengxiao knew what she wanted to ask most at this moment, "Your daughter has started kindergarten. I transferred some money to your brother through legitimate means. He is now working as a kindergarten security guard to take care of his niece, and he also occasionally does some part-time work on film sets."

"Thank you, thank you!"

"You're welcome. This was originally part of the deal."

Upon hearing his words, Liu Ruyu knew that her rescue was due to two reasons: firstly, the original deal, and secondly, she needed to demonstrate some further usefulness to avoid being abandoned.

With a quick glance, he spotted a few more somewhat familiar faces, but there was no time to greet them all now. "I have a lead!"

Li Chengxiao was not surprised. It would be unreasonable if this person hadn't discovered something.

"You said."

"The one you asked me to inquire about is Lin Yuanyin."

Lin Shuangshuang held her breath upon hearing the name, not wanting to miss a single word.

But Liu Ruyu's next sentence made her unable to help but feel disappointed.

"I didn't see it. But..."

"But what?"

“But I’ve heard this name from other people. She seems to be quite important here. I was discovered because I finally found out her approximate location and was thinking of sneaking over to check it out, but I was discovered before I even got there. I didn’t have a chance to explain, and my face was slashed and left here to die.”

Lin Shuangshuang wanted to crawl right into Liu Ruyu's head right now, and asked impatiently, "Where is she located?"

"They all live in caves, inside that mountain in front of us. Lin Yuanyin, she should be in the deepest part, all the way down!"

Then, Liu Ruyu dictated his thoughts while Lin Shuang listened and drew, gradually sketching out the approximate structure of the cave inside the mountain.

"Is that right?"

"More or less, but the inside is much more complex than this. I've only explored less than 10% of it. Be careful when you go in."

Since these people have come, they are bound to go in, and she naturally hopes that they can come out alive and take her back to the human world.

Yes, the human world!

Those things in the cave are not human!
Although Liu Ruyu has woken up and her body is beginning to recover with the help of various energy supplements, she is still far from being able to move freely.

But others, especially Lin Shuangshuang, couldn't wait for her to fully recover.

They left her some food and water, then the group shouldered their bags, took the newly completed diagram of the cave's interior, and prepared to head straight for their lair.

"Oh, right," because rescuing Liu Ruyu and listening to her reveal clues had taken some time, by the time Jiang Hanying looked back at the platform halfway up the mountain, there was no movement anymore, only the white fire around the platform, which was now barely extinguished. She pointed and said, "There must have been some kind of ceremony taking place on that platform over there. I just looked through my binoculars, and wow, those people were surrounding a dark pool, stripping naked and jumping in to soak. I'll have to wash my eyes properly later!"

Lin Shuangshuang: "..."

She was going to use binoculars to look too, but Li Jingmo's exclamation stopped her, and she forgot about it afterwards.

I suddenly feel a little relieved.

Although the others didn't see it either, just from Jiang Hanying's description, they could imagine how shocking the scene must have been.

Li Chengxiao was also a little unsure of what to say: "Will you dare to look at things randomly again in the future?"

Jiang Hanying shook her head hurriedly: "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare!"

If this happens again, she'll really go blind!
