Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Knock Him Unconscious
Xiao Ling was extremely earnest, trying her best not to let herself cry...
When a child travels a thousand miles, the mother’s heart is heavy with worry.
Ever since she had Xiao Nuan, she had come to truly understand this feeling.
Moreover, the task they were undertaking was inherently dangerous.
"Mommy..."
The little girl was also a bit scared, but knowing the situation was severe, she didn’t make a fuss.
Jhiang Yuan couldn’t help but glance at her daughter, who was nestled in her grandmother’s arms, both of them wearing the same military coat, behaving extremely well.
"Alright, let’s hurry up."
Everyone’s hearts were tense. Jhiang Yuan made Ye Mianmian and Fan Qing help pull the ropes, although they were already hooked.
But being extra cautious was still very necessary.
If they slipped, there was still strength in their hands to hold on.
This was necessary and also a guarantee for everyone’s safety.
Xiao Ling joined her, looking down at the situation below.
Song Yi had already been waiting for a while, and seeing someone descending, he was ready below.
Since they were with a child, everyone was very anxious, in case Liang Kang encountered danger.
The rest would likely feel pressured, guessing what might happen next.
"Xiao Ling, don’t be nervous. This is the only option we have now. If we stayed in the building, we’d either be crushed or freeze to death."
"Yeah, I know, Jhiang Yuan and the others will be alright, won’t they!"
"They will be, don’t worry!"
Liang Kang’s physical strength wasn’t as good as Song Yi’s.
Moreover, carrying a child, he had to rest several times.
However, he managed to reach safely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Liang Kang was also pleased, and Song Yi quickly helped to unstrap the child.
Once the three of them were together, they were concerned about the people above.
"Xiao Ling, you should go down too!"
Keeping her above wasn’t reassuring; she had just mentioned not bringing an extra coat for her daughter.
She naturally wanted to go down, but now felt somewhat embarrassed.
A family of three, with two already down, it wouldn’t sound good if she went as well.
"Maybe let the others go down first."
"No, go ahead, Jingjing needs care, and later we’ll send the luggage down, you could help keep an eye on it..."
Jhiang Yuan reassured her, and Xiao Ling gratefully grabbed the rope.
They used two ropes, the other tied around the waist just in case.
Indeed, women tend to have less strength in their wrists.
She felt strained as soon as she started descending.
No choice, since the arrow was on the string, they had to proceed.
"Xiao Ling, don’t be nervous, keep calm.
If you get tired, take a break, we’ll hold onto you."
"Okay!"
She took a couple of deep breaths, gathered her courage, and resolutely went down.
The process was lengthy, but fortunately, she landed safely.
Next, they began transporting everyone’s luggage down.
Xiao Ling shared her plan with the two men.
Jhiang Yuan pulled up the rope and then slid the woven bags down.
These bags had a convenient feature, handles in the middle.
Perfect for threading the rope through, which made things easier.
Few people dared to take it lightly, ready to catch below.
The pace was quite fast, and after two rounds, everything was down.
Only a few of them were left, and the next to go was Ye Mianmian.
She wanted to refuse, but Jhiang Yuan insisted, so she went down.
As she kept fit regularly, her physical strength was fairly good. After a short rest in the middle, she also reached the bottom.
"Fan Qing, you go down."
"No, I want to stay with Kaiyang."
She shook her head hastily, looking somewhat frightened.
"Qingqing, listen to me and go down first to wait for me."
"But with your arm like this, how are you going to get down? Let me carry you!"
"What are you joking about, hurry down. I’ll come down later.
Don’t worry, there’s no problem at all."
Zhang Kaiyang kept assuring her, but Fan Qing still didn’t want to go down.
She knew that her boyfriend was just saying that because he was worried she wouldn’t leave.
"Qingqing, rest assured, I won’t abandon Zhang Kaiyang. Or maybe let Song Yi come up and carry him later.
Don’t delay any longer, quickly."
Fan Qing looked at Jhiang Yuan and then at Zhang Kaiyang, her face full of indecision.
The two of them talked for a while, but she didn’t listen and instead went to prepare the rope.
Whatever they said, in the end, Fan Qing came over, and we waited until she had gone down.
Jhiang Yuan was also relieved and called Jhiang Xingzhi over, speaking to him for a few moments.
Then she turned around to look at Zhang Kaiyang.
"Sister Yuan, don’t worry about me. I know my condition isn’t great. You all go down first.
If possible, please help me look after Qingqing. I don’t trust her being alone. I’m begging you."
He thought then that we were abandoning him.
"Kaiyang, don’t overthink it. You know your condition too—going down on a rope is hardly possible."
With that, he hung his head.
The pain in his arm was still perceptible; Jhiang Yuan was speaking the truth!
"Our plan is this: you come down the stairs with my parents. It’s not easy, but there’s hope."
What?
He couldn’t believe it. Jhiang Yuan was actually willing to take a risk for him.
"Sister Yuan, there’s no need. Please tell uncle and aunt to take Xiao Nuan down."
"Enough, stop talking and let’s hurry. We won’t abandon you."
"Yes, son, let’s move it. Yuanyuan, you go down from here and tidy up the rope later."
"Okay, rest assured!"
Jhiang Xingzhi grabbed the dazed Zhang Kaiyang and led him to the front.
The situation downstairs was indeed not great, but getting to the twentieth floor was still manageable since they had come up this way.
Dad went down first, then let Zhang Kaiyang go down, with Jhiang Yuan pulling him from above.
Suddenly, his hand slipped, and then he became unsteady and was about to fall forward.
Jhiang Xingzhi quickly reached out to catch him, then struck him on the neck with a hand chop.
Zhang Kaiyang hadn’t yet reacted when he passed out.
"Young man, young man, are you okay?"
Jhiang Xingzhi shouted a couple of times, confirmed he had passed out, and then signaled to Jhiang Yuan.
She quickly took her mom and Xiao Nuan into the space, then hurriedly went down to bring dad and Zhang Kaiyang inside as well.
"I’ll head out first; time is pressing, don’t let him wake up."
"Okay, just be careful."
Originally, she had planned to use sedatives to knock him out.
But Dad said his hand was strong enough for the task, and it turned out to be true—the method was indeed simple and crude.
Whatever the means, as long as the goal was achieved, it was enough.
She also quickly got her emotions in check, picked up her backpack, and prepared to go down.
In this period, she had been exercising daily and her physical condition had significantly improved.
The people below watched her descend, silently worried.
Song Yi saw that there was actually no one watching in front, frowning slightly.
Moreover, she wasn’t wearing a safety rope, which made him even more uncertain.
But he dared not speak, afraid of distracting her. At this moment, it was crucial not to be distracted.
