Chapter 173: Chapter 172: RescuedGu Youyou, upon hearing the voice, is overjoyed, hastily calling back loudly, "Someone’s here, I’m hanging down here, Shunzi, quickly throw the rope down." Judging by the voice, thankfully, the fall was not too deep, and with a rope tied around, it shouldn’t be difficult to climb back up.

There were many villagers on the mountain, and under the organization of the village head, they split into several teams. It was Wang Shun’s team who discovered this part of the cliff, and hearing Gu Youyou’s voice, he was ecstatic, saying, "It’s Sister Youyou, she’s still alive, quickly get the rope out, and pull Sister Youyou up." The others also never expected Gu Youyou to be alive; having been taken by wildmen for several days and still surviving was nothing short of a miracle! In order to catch wildmen, they had brought plenty of ropes, tied them together, and threw them down, which was more than enough. "Sister Youyou, the rope’s coming down, grab onto it." The valley was already very dark at this time, and the rope being thrown down was truly a lifesaver! Seeing the rope not far away, Gu Youyou was overjoyed, she pouted towards Jin Zijin’s direction and said, "I’ll go up first, you see to yourself!" "Shunzi, move a bit more to the right." Gu Youyou tied the rope around herself, gave it a tug, it felt sturdy, and she called out loudly, "I’m ready, you can pull me up!" Unexpectedly, there were so many people on top of the cliff, and all of them were men from the village. They probably had never seen Gu Youyou dressed quite like this, staring blankly at her fair and tender legs. Gu Youyou also didn’t look too pleased; in modern times, wearing a mini skirt was nothing unusual, and she was even wearing mid-length leggings. But in these ancient times, it was not the same, it was like being some rare animal. People in ancient times were too feudal. She quickly raised her arms, explaining, "My arm is injured, I can’t just do nothing." Wang Shun was full of concern, asking, "Sister, are you alright?" "Hmm? Something’s wrong, my arm’s injured." "I mean the wildman. He didn’t do anything to you, did he?" Gu Youyou narrowed her eyes, reflecting on his words, and then she realized what he was worried about. In ancient times, the most important thing for a woman was her reputation, and he probably thought she had been violated by that wildman. Gu Youyou chuckled dryly, pointing towards the cliff, "The wildman fell off, he must have died from the fall, I was lucky, I got snagged in a tree." "It was I who caught you!" The sentence that followed was intercepted by Jin Zijin; turning around, she saw a man with agile movements leaping up from below the cliff, unflustered. Seeing her surrounded by a group of men, his face turned dark in an instant, and he quickly took off his clothes to wrap her in them. "Youyou, how could you forget about me after getting up, didn’t we agree you’d go up first, then throw the rope down to pull me up?" Gu Youyou: "..." When did I ever say that? "It’s getting dark, let’s hurry down the mountain. Shunzi, fellow villagers, thank you so much." This man who suddenly leaped up from the bottom of the cliff was obviously beyond everyone’s expectations, Wang Shun chuckled and said, "I was just wondering where Brother Jin had gone, turns out he had already found Sister Youyou. I knew it, how could Brother Jin not care for Sister Youyou, and see, he’s the one who found her first!" Jin Zijin succeeded in snatching his wife back from the wildman’s grasp and even killed the wildman; this news spread quickly in the village. Previously, there were rumors that Jin Zijin was indifferent to his wife and had married her intending to absorb her dowry, but this event disproved those rumors as he had rescued Gu Youyou. This secluded little mountain village, once again, returned to its usual tranquility! ...
