The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 692 - 691. Thrilling moment

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and follow!"

Tang Shu’s voice came again, snapping Roger, who had his mouth agape in an O shape, back to reality. He quickly followed her steps, but clearly, at a much slower pace than Tang Shu.

Below the big tree, Lin Yucheng, seeing that someone was coming to rescue her, was thrilled. Her dangling legs tried to use the branches close at hand to move upward. However, just as her right foot stepped on a branch, a cracking sound came from above her head.

This is bad!

Seeing her movement, Tang Shu did not have time to think carefully. She unfastened the rescue rope from her waist, and forcefully tossed one end toward a rock above, while the other end flew towards Lin Yucheng, who was about to fall.

"Shit!" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Roger, witnessing this scene, immediately broke out in a cold sweat, inwardly sighing that the woman was probably going to fall and likely lose half her life.

However, in the next instant, the situation changed dramatically. The rescue rope thrown by Tang Shu accurately looped around the protruding rock, while the other end was tied around Lin Yucheng’s waist in the nick of time!

Due to the great force of the fall, the lower half of the rope immediately became taut. Tang Shu felt the strong pull on her right hand. She touched the hillside with her left foot and let go of the rope above with her left hand, plummeting towards Lin Yucheng. Just as they were about to collide, she increased the friction with her left hand and stopped precisely beside Lin Yucheng.

Roger exhaled in relief upon seeing this. Fortunately, the force of the fall had finally slowed down. He had thought both of them were going to fall.

But... that scene just now, didn’t it look just like a superhero moment from a movie? He must have seen it wrong. Even a real rescue team wouldn’t have such skills, right?

"Are you okay? Is there anywhere that feels off?"

Tang Shu’s right hand had already reached Lin Yucheng’s waist, securing it, with both of their weights now completely relying on the rescue rope above.

The event happened in an instant, Lin Yucheng hardly had time to react. The rapid rise and fall made her look a bit stunned, with tears still lingering on her beautiful face, as she stared blankly at the tree overhead that had once borne her weight.

"Yucheng?"

"Here!"

She turned her head reflexively and then realized she seemed to have... escaped danger.

Of course, to be truly out of danger, there was still some distance to go, as their current situation was far from being safe.

"I’m okay, I can move!"

Although there were several cuts on her body causing intermittent pain, and she was in a sorry state, all of that was negligible compared to the fact that she was alive.

Tang Shu’s mouth twitched at the response, "You better not move. Keep still."

Another move and she couldn’t guarantee their safety.

"Okay, okay."

Tang Shu looked up at Roger above. "Come and help."

The combined weight of two adult women must be around 200 pounds; the rock bearing their weight might collapse at any moment. Waiting any longer could be disastrous.

Upon hearing this, Roger immediately nodded, pulled out his rescue rope from his waist, and began securing it. Due to the steepness of the spot where Tang Shu and Lin Yucheng were, he couldn’t get there himself and had to rely on external help. After fixing the rope, Roger pushed off the rocks with his feet several times and slid down, quickly reaching their side.

"Give her to me, and you climb up."

Roger had a much larger build than Tang Shu, and the slope where he was located was much milder. Thus, Lin Yucheng was transferred from Tang Shu’s position to his.
