After hearing his idea, everyone was stunned. You look at me and I look at you, a little at a loss. It can be said that this idea is completely beyond their cognition.
Maybe they have never seen such a way to throw the rope to the opposite side.
After a short silence, Da Laohei was the first to take the lead in cheering.
"This is a good idea, just do what Brother Xiaobei says."
With the support of the boss, the next thing became much easier. Soon someone found a long stone.
The stone is almost two feet long.
Such a heavy stone is enough to pull up a rope as thick as a thumb, and this length is safe enough to be stuck in the cracks of the stone.
After carefully tying the rope to the stone, Da Laohei solemnly handed it over to Hou Liu.
Hou Liu climbed to the top of the tree with the stone, found a triangular branch, and placed the stone.
Then, another rope was tied to the tree trunk about three feet below the stone. This rope is meant to pull the tree trunk back. After repeatedly confirming that the rope was correct, Hou Liu slipped down from the tree.
Da Laohei was the first to step forward and grab the rope.
Everyone lined up in order, and with a shout, more than a dozen people pulled back with all their strength, and soon the treetops were pulled out into a huge bow shape.
"Brother Xiaobei, is this strength enough?" Da Laohei was unsure, so he could only ask Chen Xiaobei.
In fact, Chen Xiaobei was even more unsure. He could only say apologetically, "Master Dazhai, I don't know either. How about we give it a try first."
"Okay, let's try it first."
Da Laohei turned his head and looked at everyone and said loudly, "I'll shout one, two, three, and let's let go together."
"one!"
"two!"
"three……"
After he shouted three times, everyone loosened their hands, and the stones on the treetops flew out with a swish.
In the face of this huge force, stones weighing dozens of kilograms, like pebbles thrown by someone, quickly moved towards the opposite side. The ropes coiled on the ground made a swishing sound, and everyone watched for a moment. He looked at the rope and then at the rocks in mid-air, with a look of anticipation on his face.
"We're here, we're on the other side." Hou Liu was the first to get excited.
Yes, judging from the distance, the stone should have reached the other side, but it is still flying in mid-air.
Chen Xiaobei sighed secretly, oh, he was sloppy and used too much force.
The rocks can continue to fly, but the rope is limited after all. At this end, the rope is tied to the tree trunk. When they saw the rope being pulled straight, everyone let out a cry of surprise.
As the rope kept pulling, the stone's forward movement stopped abruptly, and then it fell rapidly while flying back.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei's heart skipped a beat. Don't fall into the canyon.
Fortunately, the terrain on the opposite side was very high, so the stone flew back a short distance before falling to the ground with a muffled sound.
Seeing this scene, everyone cheered.
But Chen Xiaobei's heart was still in his throat. The rebound force is very strong at the moment of straightening. Landing does not mean success.
After waiting for about a dozen more times, I saw the rope shaking violently.
"Oops, not good." Da Laohei exclaimed.
Chen Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief, which actually meant that the stone on the rope was stuck.
Great, a success.
But they couldn't see where it was stuck, because the terrain on the other side was very high and Chen Xiaobei couldn't see clearly.
Everyone watched eagerly, and when the rope stopped shaking, Yang Chun stepped forward and pulled the rope back a few times. When he saw that it couldn't be pulled, he immediately smiled and said, "Great, it's stuck over there."
Da Laohei also came over and pulled back with Yang Chun. When they still couldn't move, he nodded slightly.
Then he turned to look at Hou Liu next to him.
Hou Liu acted very bravely this time. He patted his chest and expressed his stance to Big Brother Hei, "Brother, just watch."
Da Laohei waved, and someone next to him came forward and took another rope, tying one end to the tree and the other to Hou Liu's waist.
Da Laohei patted Hou Liu on the shoulder again, "Don't be anxious, don't show off, come back if you can't get up."
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei was very moved.
Although this group of bandits occupies the mountain as kings and does not do their job properly, the brotherly friendship between them is something that most people really can't appreciate.
Needless to say, Hou Liu was really worthy of his surname, and he climbed onto the rope as gently as an ape.
He just stretched out his hands flatly, maintained balance, and walked forward slowly.
This time, the showy Chen Xiaobei was a little stunned.
In my previous life, I had seen some tightrope walkers holding long bamboo poles in their hands to adjust their balance.
But Hou Liu didn't use anything and still walked very smoothly on the rope.
We walked about half the distance. The rope began to shake violently, and it could be seen that the wind in the canyon was still quite strong. The old black man made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted to Hou Liu, "Brother, be careful."
Hou Liu on the rope raised his hands and waved twice to the sky.
Such courage. Chen Xiaobei sincerely admires him.
Hou Liu took a few steps forward, then slowly squatted down.
The next moment, his body turned and hung directly under the rope.
Then, Hou Liu used his hands and feet to crawl to the opposite side quickly.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei sighed again. With such a thin rope, if it were him, let alone using his hands and feet, if he were given a few more pairs of hands and feet, he wouldn't be able to run half as fast as this one.
Hou Liu passed the distance of more than ten feet without using half a stick of incense. This speed was breathtaking.
The moment they saw Hou Liu standing on the other side, the bandits let out a burst of cheers that echoed throughout the sky.
Hou Liu fixed the rope around his waist again, and then blew a loud whistle in this direction.
The distance between the two ropes was about two feet. Chen Xiaobei couldn't figure out what these bandits meant by this design.
Hearing Hou Liu's whistle, Yang Chun immediately came forward and checked the rope again.
After some inspection, Yang Chun turned around and hugged the boss Hei Yi, "Brother, it's okay."
Da Laohei looked at everyone present and said, "Yang Chun will go over first to help Brother Hou Liu, followed by Brother Xiaobei, and then everyone will go over in turn. I will stay until the end."
Looking at the two trembling ropes, Chen Xiaobei secretly complained in his heart that he really didn't have Hou Liu's ability.
Obviously, Da Laohei saw his hesitation, laughed, and waved to a minion in the distance.
This guy came forward immediately and handed over a piece of rope.
"Brother Xiaobei, just like Hou Liu, hang upside down and crawl over there, tie this rope around your waist, and tie the other end to this."
Looking in the direction of the elder's black finger, Chen Xiaobei noticed that there were more than a dozen iron rings on the rope tied to Hou Liu's waist.
Look at this thumb-thick iron ring. Chen Xiaobei secretly sighed, let alone these bandits, they were so thoughtful that they climbed one rope and used another rope for safety protection.
