Chapter 53 Qin Zhen is saved
Qin Zhi took out a professional outdoor escape safety rope from the space, fixed it on a big tree on the top of the mountain, then Qin Zhi tied a knot on himself, put on gloves, and slowly descended along the rope.
There were many strange rocks on the rock wall. Qin Zhi couldn't imagine what would happen if a person bumped into these rocks.
As you go down slowly, you will see some pine and cypress trees growing horizontally on the rock wall, which are quite thick.
Qin Zhi bought a professional rope of 100 meters. When she descended to the end of the rope, it was still too deep to see below. Fortunately, she bought enough ropes just in case. Qin Zhi looked around the rock wall and found a concave part that was just right as a fulcrum. Qin Zhi took out another rope and tied a knot, then tied it around herself and continued to descend.
Slowly, more and more trees grew on the rock wall.
Qin Zhi suddenly found that some branches were broken. It seemed that these trees cushioned his sister's fall. Qin Zhi continued to slide down, and kept calling Qin Zhen's name.
Just when he was in despair, he heard a faint cry for help. Qin Zhi was like a chicken with blood, trying to speed up, but controlling his breathing, and calming himself down so that he could hear the cry for help more clearly, and he really heard Qin Zhen's voice.
"Sister, hold on, I'm coming," Qin Zhi judged that the voice should be coming from 50 meters below. After Qin Zhi continued to descend for a distance, he saw a person lying on a tree trunk. When he got closer, Qin Zhi confirmed that she was indeed Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen lay on the tree, her whole body in pain, her head was dizzy. But she didn't dare to move at all, because she heard the sound of the branch breaking when she fell, and it was estimated that only a little bit was supporting her now.
When Qin Zhi came to her side, he heard the sound of branches breaking before he could be happy. Qin Zhi quickly took out a handcuff from the space and handcuffed Qin Zhi's hands to his own.
Qin Zhi tried but failed to bring Qin Zhen into the space, so she could only think of a way to carry her up. She took out a rope and tied Qin Zhen to her back, then pulled the rope and climbed up little by little. This required a lot of arm strength, and Qin Zhi found it increasingly difficult to climb, even gasping for breath from exhaustion.
"Xiaozhi, if you continue like this, neither of us can get up. Please untie the rope." Qin Zhen said.
"No, sister, think about our parents. We can't give up. I will climb slowly and eventually I will be able to climb up." Qin Zhi said firmly.
Qin Zhi gritted his teeth and insisted on climbing up. Suddenly, he felt the rope move upwards, but it was dark and he could not see the situation above.
Before Qin Zhi could figure it out, two people jumped down from above. Then, in an instant, his arms were lifted up to the left and right and flew upward. If I guessed correctly, this was the legendary Qinggong.
Only when his feet touched the ground at the top of the mountain did Qin Zhi completely relax, breathing heavily.
"Humph, you two are so brave. One of you dared to jump down, and the other one dared to go down in the dark with just a rope to rescue people. You don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is." Shen Changzhou was so angry that he ran home when he heard the news that his wife was pregnant. He didn't see it, but he heard that his niece fell off the cliff.
Standing next to him was a person who had followed here shamelessly. At this moment, he was extremely glad that he had come, otherwise he would not know whether he would be able to see this girl again in the future.
Shen Changzhou untied the rope on Qin Zhen, and then Qin Zhi handed him a key, signaling him to open the handcuffs. Shen Changzhou did so.
Qin Zhi was so tired that he couldn't even stand straight. There was no other way, so Zhan Xiao, who had a sour face, was responsible for carrying Qin Zhi down the mountain, while Shen Changzhou was responsible for carrying Qin Zhen.
When they got back to their home at the foot of the mountain, Shen couldn't help crying when she saw her two daughters had returned home. Song Rou was also surprised and happy.
Zhan Xiao asked Mr. Sun to check the bodies of the two sisters. Qin Zhi was fine. Qin Zhen had some fractures in her arms and legs, which had been fixed with wooden boards. There were some scratches on her face and body, but they were not serious. Mr. Sun gave her a bottle of scar cream and it was fixed.
It was almost dawn when we finished dealing with these things, but no one slept all night, so we felt relieved and went back to take a nap.
In the county government office, Zhan Liu took Zhan Xiao's token to meet the county magistrate Song Shijie. He demanded that Qin Wen and his wife must be severely punished. Before leaving, Zhan Liu said, "I heard that Miss Qin had previously sued Qin Wen for murder, and after beating the drum to protest her injustice, she was also beaten with 20 sticks. Qin Wen was also sentenced to three years in prison, but how come he was released later? How can the government handle cases so frivolously?"
Song Shijie broke out in a cold sweat. He had no idea that Qin Wen had been released. It seemed that it was time to investigate what was going on in the county government.
Song Shijie quickly uncovered the matter of corruption and bribery by his master, and immediately dismissed him from his post and investigated him.
As for the fact that Liu Xiuying caused Qin Zhen to fall off the cliff, it was also investigated clearly. It was a conspiracy between Qin Wen and Liu Xiuying. Qin Wen and Liu Xiuying were sentenced to exile to Ningguta and started their journey in seven days. The two male criminals were sentenced to six years in prison.
Shen was relieved to hear the verdict. She was afraid that those people without moral bottom line would continue to plot against her daughter.
Qin Zhen stayed at home for several days before she came out of the fear of being on the verge of death.
While Qin Zhi's family was filled with joy after surviving the disaster, the old Qin's family was filled with sorrow and gloom.
When Liu Xiuying's parents learned that their daughter was sentenced to exile, they went to Lao Qin's house every day to make trouble, saying that the daughter of a good family would be exiled not long after she got married.
Old man Qin was exhausted, and his hair turned a lot white. Even Liu, who was the best at throwing tantrums, couldn't argue with Liu Xiuying's parents.
Old Qin really didn't want to continue to tangle with the Liu family, so he offered to compensate the Liu family with five taels of silver. The Liu family refused to agree without achieving their goal. Finally, the Liu family proposed to either compensate them with twenty taels of silver or marry Qin Lian to his son Liu Da.
Since the Qin family paid fifty taels of silver to the Dahua family last time, plus the money for Qin Wen to marry a wife, they only have twenty taels of silver left. This is the confidence of the whole family, how can they take it out casually. But Qin Lian had a fortune-teller who told her that she was a blessed person and would marry a noble man in the future. How could she just give herself to Liu Da, a second-rate guy?
Qin Dahai has always valued his daughter, and he will not give up his daughter for the ungrateful third brother. He bluntly said that if Liu Da dared to take advantage of his daughter, he would sacrifice his life and the entire Liu family would be buried with him.
The Liu family bullied the weak and feared the strong. They were intimidated by Qin Dahai and did not dare to make plans for Qin Lian, but they insisted that they pay twenty taels in compensation. Later, it was the old man Qin who got angry and said that the daughter of the Liu family had been married to the Qin family for less than a month, but she was found to be three months pregnant. If she made trouble again, he would spread the matter. The Liu family was afraid of affecting the marriage of Liu Xiuying's younger brother and sister, so they ran away in disgrace with reluctance.
