After a break, the team headed by He Yuehua continued to set off. After passing through different types of road sections, they finally reached the most dangerous section of the road - a cliff section only 30 centimeters wide.
Although the total length was only twenty meters, He Yuehua just took a brief look and her fear of heights started to attack again.
"How about we change positions and I leave first?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"I'm fine." He Yuehua gritted her teeth and forced herself to overcome it.
He Yuehua always felt that she was a burden to the team. Although she worked hard to learn medical knowledge, she often relied on others. This time she did not want to drag everyone down anymore.
"It's okay, Huahua, we understand," Zhang Linlin said.
"Sooner or later, I will get over it. I can do it." He Yuehua lowered her eyes and thought of her parents.
He Yuehua used to have no fear of heights, but since her parents died protecting her when she was 4 years old, although many details have long been forgotten, the weightlessness of falling from a high altitude is still indelible to her.
In the summer vacation of 2003, He's father and mother took the young He Yuehua back to Hong Kong after traveling. They took a double-decker bus home from the airport. Unexpectedly, this trip would be the last memory she and her parents would have.
"Baby, what do you want to eat tonight? Dad is talking to grandma on the phone. What do you want to eat? Let grandma buy it for you." Mother He asked.
"Mom, I want to eat crabs!" said the young He Yuehua.
"But mom can't eat crabs, how about we eat shrimps." He's mother hugged He Yuehua while stroking her slightly protruding belly.
"Okay! Dad, tell grandma that Huahua wants to eat shrimp!" said the young He Yuehua.
In the car, He's mother was still discussing the evening meal with He Yuehua, while He's father was standing next to the two mothers and daughters, calling Grandma He to report that they were safe.
As the bus continued to drive slowly, a container trailer suddenly changed lanes in the same direction. The bus driver had to swerve in order to dodge.
Before the passengers on the bus could react, the bus broke through the guardrail of the viaduct, rushed out, and rolled down the hillside 35 meters above the ground.
He Yuehua was hugged tightly by her mother. In her mother's arms, she vaguely saw her father being thrown out of the car. With a muffled blow, the little He Yuehua lost consciousness.
When He Yuehua woke up again, it was already nearly half a month later. Under He's mother's desperate protection, He Yuehua was not seriously injured. In the newspapers of the year, it was called a miracle of maternal love.
But the little He Yuehua still didn't know what happened, and from then on, only Grandma He and her were left to depend on each other.
This stay in the hospital for nearly two months also made He Yuehua hope that she would become a medical nurse when she grew up.
When He Yuehua grew up, although she gradually forgot her memories of those years, her fear of heights was like a seed that took root and sprouted in He Yuehua's heart, and she has never forgotten it.
I found the report of the accident again and saw that half of my mother's body was crushed under the wreckage and had been crushed to a pulp.
Her father was cut in half by the fallen guardrail. After learning that her parents died tragically in an accident, He Yuehua suffered from depression for a time. Fortunately, she met the outgoing Zhang Linlin and the thoughtful Chen Yuanyuan, and she slowly opened her heart.
"Huahua?" Chen Yuanyuan saw that He Yuehua was dazed for a while, so she interrupted her meditation.
"Let's go." He Yuehua straightened her body and started to move towards the cliff.
He Yuehua moved forward little by little, and the others followed closely behind, taking every step carefully.
Chen Yuanyuan was behind He Yuehua and saw that her face was getting paler, but she still gritted her teeth and kept walking.
About ten minutes later, He Yuehua took a big step and finally landed on a platform.
"I succeeded!" He Yuehua's voice was trembling a little.
"Well, you are great, we are all safe!" Chen Yuanyuan saw that Liu Feiyang, who was walking at the end of the team, also successfully completed this section, and she was not stingy in praising her.
"Huahua is super invincible and powerful!" Zhang Linlin said.
"We are almost at our destination, right?" Liu Feiyang picked up the earth circle and compared it.
"Yes, we'll be there about 200 meters further," Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Are you going down today?" Liu Feiyang asked.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at how exhausted everyone was, and the weather was not good either. It was estimated that there might be a blizzard tonight, so she decided to camp where she was.
The few people returned to the RV and began to discuss the division of labor for tomorrow.
"I want one person to go to the cave with me, and then the other two people stay above and be responsible for pulling us up." Chen Yuanyuan said.
There have been several near-accidents on climbs in the past life, but now there is snow everywhere, and it would be safer if someone put in the effort to pull up.
"I can go down, but I'm afraid you won't be able to pull me due to my weight." Although Liu Feiyang is not fat, his height and weight of 1.8 meters should not be underestimated.
"How about I go down?" Zhang Linlin asked.
"You have to climb the rock by yourself when you go down. I'm afraid your hands and feet will be knotted before you can climb a few steps," Chen Yuanyuan said.
In fact, apart from the problem of fear of heights, He Yuehua is the best candidate.
In addition to her flexible hands and feet, she is the only one among the three who knows that Chen Yuanyuan's space can be entered. If something unexpected happens, Chen Yuanyuan can directly enter the space with her without any consideration.
"How about I do it?" He Yuehua also guessed that she was the best candidate, so she volunteered.
"But" Zhang Linlin looked at He Yuehua worriedly.
"I can do that. I was the one who left first just now." He Yuehua said with a smile.
Chen Yuanyuan briefly explained the division of labor for tomorrow and asked everyone to rest as early as possible tonight.
In the middle of the night, Chen Yuanyuan, who was sleeping on the forehead bed, heard the sound of a car door opening and closing. She vaguely saw a figure at the window, and she immediately woke up with fright.
Chen Yuanyuan put on her coat, wrapped herself up thickly, walked out of the car door and looked around.
On the cliff in the distance, I saw a familiar figure.
Chen Yuanyuan was afraid of scaring her by shouting, so she had to quietly walk to her side and pull her over.
"Ah!!!" He Yuehua shouted in fright and sat down on the snow.
"Me! It's me. Why are you up so late at night? Are you sleepwalking?" Chen Yuanyuan said.
"I'm thinking about climbing down tomorrow. Watching a little longer will make me less afraid." He Yuehua said.
Chen Yuanyuan walked to the edge and took a look. It was as dark as an abyss and looked very scary.
"I'm scared to see you at this late hour. You're so brave." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"I didn't expect it to be so scary. As soon as I looked down, my legs gave out. Fortunately, you gave me a hand." He Yuehua was frightened just thinking about it.
"What are you two doing? Suicide for love? Or sleepwalking?" Zhang Linlin asked.
After hearing He Yuehua's scream just now, Zhang Linlin pulled Liu Feiyang out of the car to take a look.
"We came to see the scenery, look." Chen Yuanyuan looked up at the night sky.
The stars in the sky were as bright as the night sky in Licheng before the end of the world.
