Chapter 448 Crossing the High-Altitude Suspension Bridge

Of course, this is all in the past.

Gu Xiaoqi and Zhang Yue looked at each other, encouraged each other, and walked onto the suspension bridge.

Under the suspension bridge are sturdy wooden boards, interspersed with ropes, forming a long road.

When you walk on it, your feet will shake. The gap in the middle is not narrow. If people with thin legs don't step well, they may miss a step.

Although you won’t fall, the experience of being on the verge of death is very terrifying!

Gu Xiaoqi held on to both sides of the suspension bridge tightly with both hands and walked carefully. She could even feel her legs shaking.

She tried her best to see clearly under her feet with her peripheral vision, but she did not have the courage to look down because the scene between the wooden boards was too clear.

When they were almost halfway there, Gu Xiaoqi already felt caught in a dilemma, and she was extremely scared.

But there is no turning back now. All we can do is keep moving forward!

Gu Xiaoqi's breathing became rapid, and his hands holding both sides of the suspension bridge turned slightly pale.

Zhang Yue, who was walking in front of her, had been running around the mountains with her father since she was a child. She was brave and much calmer than Gu Xiaoqi.

"Xiao Qi, don't be afraid. Adjust your breathing. Just go slower and more steadily. It'll be fine. I believe you can do it. I'm here with you! Come on!"

Zhang Yue's voice seems to have a kind of magic that makes people feel at ease unconsciously.

Gu Xiaoqi tried to take a deep breath, hoping that his breathing could become steady. Looking at Zhang Yue's back in front of him, Gu Xiaoqi gritted his teeth and continued walking forward.

Step by step, Zhang Yue had successfully gotten down the suspension bridge and was waiting for Gu Xiaoqi ahead.

Gu Xiaoqi was only six or seven planks away. Seeing victory was within reach, Gu Xiaoqi made a concerted effort and walked a little too fast, accidentally stepping into the gap.

One of his legs missed a step and he fell down. Gu Xiaoqi was so scared that he screamed and sat on the suspension bridge, shaking all over.

Her legs were weak and she wanted to stand up, but the shaky suspension bridge was like a devil, constantly causing trouble for her.

"Xiao Qi, stand up! You can do it! First take out the foot that missed the step, hold it twice, and stand up! You can do it!"

Gu Xiaoqi looked at Zhang Yue who was cheering for her in front of her, then she looked down again and felt even more dizzy!

The people behind have caught up one after another, urging Gu Xiaoqi to hurry up.

If she didn't move, the people behind her couldn't move forward. Gu Xiaoqi could only grit her teeth and tremblingly tried to pull out the leg that had missed the step.

Then he held the ropes on both sides, closed his eyes, and forced himself to stand up.

Her whole body was shaking. She then opened her eyes and exhaled heavily, but her heart was still in her throat.

She did not dare to look down again. Instead, she looked at Zhang Yue in front of her. She mustered up her courage, held her breath, and took five or six steps forward in one go.

When Gu Xiaoqi was about to go up and down the suspension bridge, Zhang Yue reached out and pulled Gu Xiaoqi. Gu Xiaoqi held Zhang Yue's hand and sat down on the ground.

After landing, Gu Xiaoqi still felt like he was floating in the air. Even stepping on the ground felt so unreal. His legs were completely weak!

At this moment, sweat on his head and body was pouring down. Gu Xiaoqi sat on the ground gasping for breath in a very ungraceful manner!

After a while, he and Zhang Yue looked at each other and smiled.

Gu Xiaoqi felt a great sense of accomplishment in crossing the suspension bridge. She had succeeded in something she had never dared to think about before!

"It's so cool! I actually walked across such a high and long suspension bridge, Xiaoyue! I really did it!"

Gu Xiaoqi recovered and felt extremely excited.

Zhang Yue joked, "I also think it's quite exciting and fun. Why don't we do it again? This time you will definitely be able to cross the bridge smoothly!"

Gu Xiaoqi's smile came to an abrupt end. He opened his eyes wide and shook his head with a look of resistance, like a rattle!

"If you want to go, go by yourself! I'm not going!"

Just kidding, it’s enough to have this kind of experience once!

She doesn't want to happen again!!!

Many people later got off the suspension bridge. Most of them, like Gu Xiaoqi, collapsed to the ground right after they got off.

Gu Xiaoqi wiped the sweat from his head, and when it was almost gone, he drank two sips of water mixed with spiritual water, and soon he was back to normal.

In fact, this suspension bridge does not require any physical effort, but the fear of heights and the extreme visual impact make it feel like it took a lot of effort.

Zhang Yue is a physically strong and courageous person, so nothing happened to her at the moment. If it were her, she might have just continued walking forward.

Now she was sitting there to rest together because she was waiting for Gu Xiaoqi.

Gu Xiaoqi could naturally feel this. She didn’t want to fall behind, and she also wanted to be the first person to reach the finish line with Zhang Yue!

After drinking the spiritual water and recovering, he suggested that the two of them leave quickly while the others were still not recovered.

There is only a high and steep hill ahead. If we walk fast, it is possible to cross the hill before dark.

The two men discussed it, stood up and continued walking forward.

The students behind me who had come this far didn’t want to give up the reward of being the first to reach the finish line.

Seeing that some people were already moving forward, he could no longer sit still, so he gritted his teeth, stood up, and continued walking forward.

Gu Xiaoqi and the other person walked for about two or three hours, stopping and starting, and finally saw the steep hillside.

Zhang Yue has been running up and down the mountain for many years and doesn't find this hillside difficult.

However, the difficulty of climbing up the hill lies in the continuous upward climb, which is a great challenge to physical strength.

"We'll go up later. Although this hillside is steep, the trees are not far apart and are quite dense. You can run along the trees and try to get to a big tree, which can also be a fulcrum. I'll get the rope out and we can tie it together. If you fall down by accident, you won't roll down."

Gu Xiaoqi remembered the key points that Zhang Yue said, and she was full of confidence. She had just drunk the spiritual water, so she was not afraid of physical strength!

As long as you follow the instructions and find the fulcrum when climbing up, it will be easier.

After the two men had completed their preparations, they began to move up in one go.

It is also to leave quickly before other people arrive. Normally, when you get here, you will think about how to climb up the mountain, which will be safer and faster.

If you saw the two of them tied together, you would probably skip the thought step and just copy them!

It’s not that their method is so clever, but they don’t want to be a target. If no one sees them, it’s fine. But if they do, they will probably chase after them and compete with each other to climb up.
