At the moment when he stretched out his hands and feet, the four fingers of his left hand suddenly grabbed something, hanging the whole body, no longer rotating with the torrent. But the torrent hurt his muscles.

At this moment, as soon as the fingers of his left hand are loosened, he will immediately be swept away by the torrent. He wasn't in the water, he couldn't breathe, he was gulping water in his mouth, and he felt exhausted.

He immediately thought that this might be Liu Jing summoning him again, he couldn't be buried in Black Dragon Pond like this, she should be waiting for him somewhere. With a hard pull of his left hand, his head lifted upward, and the water was immediately revealed.

His right hand also clasped the place where his left hand was clasped, and he pressed his whole body against a rock on the shore with both hands.

He spat out the sewage in his mouth and gasped for air. He first stretched out his left hand to grasp the rocks on the shore, then stretched out his right hand from the water, and grabbed the rocks with his left hand, exposing the upper half of his body to the surface of the water.

He tumbled hard against the rock, and as soon as he poked his head out, he immediately retracted, so frightened that he almost fell into the rapids again, but fortunately his hands did not let go.

Because he saw that outside the rock was a bottomless cliff, and less than ten meters to the right was the mouth of the pot. The flood water erupted from the mouth of the pot more than a foot away before pouring down to the Black Dragon Pond. He didn't fall into the water just now, he had already fallen into the Black Dragon Pool.

He steadied himself, and when his breath was even, he slowly moved towards the shore by the rocks on the edge of the cliff.

He climbed ashore, first found the cave where the backpack and dry food were kept, ate a few biscuits, and then returned to the river to continue searching for Liu Jing and the female teacher.

In the following period, Lu Yao searched back and forth between this section of the river and the Black Dragon Pond, but found nothing.

For the first three months, he was able to meet two groups of search and rescue personnel every day, and he did not contact them and acted alone.

Later, he did not encounter search and rescue personnel again. However, every week, mountain people bring food such as pancakes, steamed buns, and steamed pork to the caves. In some cases, daily necessities such as salt, vegetable oil, clothes, razors, lighters, shampoo, washing powder, and woodcutters are also delivered. In winter, quilts, stoves, aluminum pots, and kettles are also delivered.

For more than the first month, Lu Yao did not use food and daily necessities. When he was hungry, he picked some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger, and occasionally caught a hare and pheasant to roast and eat.

But every week, the mountain people bring fresh food to the cave on time and take away the food that has not been touched. Lu Yao was very moved, he knew that this was the kindness of the mountain people, and their own family was reluctant to eat it, so they made it for him. He couldn't live up to their kindness, so he had to eat the food in the cave.

Half a year later, Lu Yao went to the town and sent a few letters to the post office. One was addressed to my uncle and aunt, thanking the two elders for their hard work in raising Jingjing and Yingying. He specifically asked his uncle and aunt to take Jingjing and Yingying back to Yunhai City to live with their grandparents. and told Liu Bin that he must study hard and not live up to his sister's expectations of him.

The second letter was addressed to his family, asking his grandparents and parents to take care of their health, don't worry about him, he will definitely find Liu Jing and take her home. Please also ask the eldest brother and sister-in-law and younger siblings not to be affected by this incident, to work hard, study hard, and exercise well.

The third letter was addressed to A-Ying, asking A-Ying to tell her uncle and aunt, asking the second elder to forgive her, and for the time being, she could not do her filial piety for them when she went home. In the letter, he also included a letter of equity transfer with his fingerprint on which he voluntarily withdrew from the board of directors of the group company and handed over the management to A-Ying; he transferred all the shares of several companies he held to A-Ying, and only temporarily retained the shares of the Love Foundation; and recommended Xiaowen to join the board of directors of the group company as vice president. At the end of the letter, he asked Ah Ying to arrange a donation of one million to Willow Town to build a bridge over the riverbed where Liu Jing and the female teacher fell into the water.

The fourth letter was addressed to Xiaowen, asking Xiaowen to join the board of directors of the group company and fully assist A-Ying in managing all the companies.

Two years later, a stone arch bridge spanning the canyon bed was completed for traffic. Lu Yao heard the sound of firecrackers and ran to the bridge, and saw the inscription on the pillar - Liujing Bridge. The lower façade is also engraved with a few lines of small characters: Lu Yao, chairman of Yunhai Sihai Holding Group Co., Ltd., donated 1 million to build.

The next day, the mountaineers who walked to the bridgehead found that the Liujing Bridge had been changed to the Willow Bridge, and the small words "Chairman Lu Yao" below had also been smoothed.

In the next three months, the welfare home and the nursing home in Willow Town each received 100,000 yuan in donations, and all schools received a batch of books and stationery.

In the past two years, Lu Yao kept going back and forth between Liu Jing and the female teacher falling into the water to the Black Dragon Pond, stepping on a path on each side of the riverbank, which later became a hiking route for travelers and drifters.

In addition to often returning to search on both sides of the riverbed, sometimes drifting down the river, and more often he paddled a raft to search in the Black Dragon Pool. Because the Black Dragon Pond was too big, he often stayed on the raft for ten days and a half at a time.

He washes his face and shaves every day, and he also bathes and changes clothes, but his hair is never cut, and he combs it smoothly. Sometimes it is tied up with a rope, sometimes it is lowered at will, and it is scattered in the wind.

His hair had turned white a year ago, and he was wearing the loose gray robe made for him by the mountain people, and he was slowly wandering on a raft on the water surface of the Black Dragon Pool.

On this day, he went to the town post office to send a few letters, and returned to a cave in Black Dragon Pond, which was already past five o'clock in the morning.

After his last breakfast, he changed into the white T-shirt and blue trousers that Liu Jing bought for him, as well as black leather shoes. He put all the food he could eat and everything he could use in his backpack, and tied a message to the mountain people to his strap.

The message reads: Thank you for taking care of me in the past two years or so, and for your hard work in searching for my lover! I'm leaving, but I can't repay it, so I'll leave you with these things that can be used and eaten. I sincerely wish you a safe life and a happy family!

He doused the fire in the fire with water and cleared all the dry firewood and weeds into the hole. After he cleaned the entrance of the cave, he knelt down on his knees, bowed to the south and bowed to the ground, and said in a dumb voice: "My dearest family! My dearest friends! Thank you for nurturing and helping me! I wish you eternal health and peace! Today is the third anniversary of my lover Liu Jing, I want to accompany her, please forget us as soon as possible!"

Then he kowtowed three times, and then three times in three directions. He stood up tremblingly, patted the dust off his body, took off the watch that Liu Jing bought for him from his left wrist, rubbed it and looked at it, there were still two clocks before Liu Jing fell into the water. He put the watch in the small pocket next to his backpack, raised his hand to comb his scattered silver hair, and slowly walked out of the cave and walked down to the Black Dragon Pool.
