Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 1096 - 1098: Xue Zhiyi Exhausted

This Poisonous Flower, so dazzlingly beautiful, surpasses any he has ever seen before. He had been very careful just now while picking it, ensuring the whole plant remained intact.

He took out a box from his coat, cautiously placed the Poisonous Flower inside, fearing any damage, and then put the box back in his coat.

He reached out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, a beaming smile spread across his face. At last, the child could be saved.

At this mont, the second-in-command beside him asked, "Boss, is everything settled?"

Xue Zhiyi glanced at the second-in-command, nodding, "Yes, it’s settled. Let’s go up now."

"Boss, you go up first. I’ll follow right behind," said the second-in-command, thinking he should stay at the back and let the Big Boss go up first, so that in case anything happened, he could protect the Big Boss from behind.

Xue Zhiyi nodded, then tugged on the rope and shouted upward, "Pull up."

The people above could barely hear his faint voice, but they felt the signal coming from the rope and hurriedly asked, "Is the Boss coming up?"

"Boss, should we pull you up?"

"Yes!" Xue Zhiyi and the second-in-command shouted together.

Hearing that it was ti to pull them up, the people above began preparing to pull, inch by inch lifting them upward.

It wasn’t easy coming down, and it was equally difficult going up. The rope slowly drew them upward as Xue Zhiyi climbed, step by step.

Beads of sweat, as large as beans, rolled down his cheeks. Not accustod to exercising, his hands were blistered.

Just as he was climbing halfway up the mountain, his hand slipped, causing his entire body to detach from the cliff. Fortunately, the rope held him, preventing a fall, but his body slamd heavily against the cliff.

"Boss!" The second-in-command behind him saw this and exclaid, afraid sothing would happen.

Xue Zhiyi only felt the heavy collision of his body, the pain was excruciating, but he couldn’t afford to worry about it. He had to get up there, so he shouted at the second-in-command, "I’m fine."

Then, he regathered his grasp on the cliff with hands and feet and continued the arduous climb.

Seeing he was fine, the second-in-command relaxed and continued climbing behind him.

Above, Yang Ming’s heart was in his throat, hoping Xue Zhiyi would safely make it up. This ti, he truly owed Xue Zhiyi a huge favor.

Xue Zhiyi continued to struggle upward, but his strength was waning. He slipped several tis, and his body collided with the cliff multiple tis.

The second-in-command behind was watching in fear and quickly shouted, "Boss, wait for . I’ll co alongside you, and we can support each other to the top."

The second-in-command thought, if worse cos to worst, he’d carry the Big Boss to the top; continuing to crash into the cliff would damage even a healthy person.

At this mont, Xue Zhiyi felt particularly embarrassed. This was the result of not regularly exercising—he only learned a little about climbing skills from others. Clearly, it wasn’t enough; dical skills alone weren’t enough for herb picking, physical strength was necessary too.

He admitted defeat, stopping halfway up the mountain, waiting for the second-in-command to co and assist him.

But things often don’t go as planned. Due to the constant friction on the cliff, the rope ultimately couldn’t withstand the wear and unexpectedly snapped with a snap.

This sudden situation shocked everyone, "Boss!"

Xue Zhiyi hadn’t expected the rope to break so suddenly, and he plumted down the cliff.
