Chapter 883: 883
As the flood continued to rise, the cliffs on the sides began to break apart, making everyone's knees weak in fear .
"This won't do, we have to continue climbing upwards," Zhou Qing proposed . Because of the strong destructive power of the flood, no one could guarantee that the current place they were standing would remain stable .
"But, Zhou Ge, the path ends here . "
"Then, throw away any unnecessary items and let's climb up," Xia Hanmo instructed . This side of the mountain was obviously safer because the rocks were more stable and the woods were lusher .
After hearing what Xia Hanmo said, everyone decisively threw their beloved items on the floor . Because, at a time like this, nothing was more important than their own lives .
Xia Hanmo then gathered some straw, weaved them into a strong rope and tied the girls together . This way, they could look after each other .
"Hanmo, thank you . We are honestly thankful . "
"Hanmo . . . it was our fault for not treating you well . "
At this moment, the girls were all crying in fear . But, after hearing Xia Hanmo's idea, they began to feel a sense of safety .
However, the rope wasn't long enough, so it was only capable of tying a few of the weakest girls together . So, Xia Hanmo turned around and said to Lin Qian as she nudged her forward, "You go first, I'll protect you . "
"Can you still hold on?" Lin Qian asked . "Don't treat yourself like you're invincible . . . "
At this time, Zhou Qing who was leading, suddenly ran behind Xia Hanmo and pushed her forward, "You go ahead, I'll watch your back . "
"Zhou Ge . . . "
"Don't underestimate me . I am still a man," Zhou Qing patted Xia Hanmo on the shoulder .
With much difficulty, the crew of people ended up climbing up the mountain . No one had any time to care about their image because the scene below them was much too frightening . Although they didn't know know if the villagers managed to escape, they could only hope that they were safe .
Soon, everyone quickly exhausted their energies . But, they were only halfway up . Meanwhile, the group of weaker girls had to force themselves forward with assistance from the men .
"Everyone, let's rest for a bit . " Everyone lay on the ground in a heap, their bodies covered in mud .
But, after running for their lives, this group of originally clean and glamorous artists were finally able to lay down their burdens and face Xia Hanmo head on .
"I never imagined you to be this capable . "
"That's right Hanmo, you saved everyone's lives . "
"Everyone's relatively safe now, but it's still not easy to call for help . It seems like there will still be heavy rain, so everyone will need to suffer a little more," Xia Hanmo said with her hands on her hips . "Right now, we need to find a comfortable place to light a fire . "
"Huh? Light a fire?"
"If we have fire, then we have smoke . We can use the smoke to create a smoke signal and call for help," Zhou Qing helped Xia Hanmo explain .
"I see . "
"I hope everyone is lucky . "
Unfortunately, reality proved that everyone's luck wasn't that good, because Xia Hanmo's prediction was right and a second round of heavy rain soon poured down on then . Even though they managed to light a fire, it was quickly extinguished . And, if they were to light a fire with the damp wood later, they would only choke on the smoke .
"Will we have to sleep here tonight?" Xia Hanmo sighed . "I reckon if this experience got documented and turned into a TV show, it would be a hit . "
"You're actually in the mood to joke right now?" Zhou Qing laughed .
Xia Hanmo turned around subconsciously to look for Lin Qian, but noticed that her face was extremely pale .
Xia Hanmo touched her forehead and began to panic, "You've got a fever . "
