0327 Lives on the shelf
“…… Child, you want to save people, but can you do it?" The old man in the tree had actually seen the two of them just now, and he couldn't swim in the water, so he didn't dare to let Juanjuan go down to save people, "If you don't know water, it's very dangerous, water and fire are ruthless, it's not a joke......"
“…… He...... He was trampled on by me...... How can I see death and not save it......" Juanjuan cried while desperately breaking free of the old man's hand, and even used her own teeth to bite the old man's arm, wanting to go down to save Gao Haiqing. The old man endured the pain, hugged Juanjuan to death, and refused to let go of anything.
As the two of them writhed back and forth on the tree, the tree kept shaking back and forth, and the leaves made a rattling sound......
The people around looked at the place where Gao Haiqing fell, and at this time only a deep whirlpool appeared, this whirlpool was moving slowly with the flood, and in its center, several circles spread out to the surroundings, these circles became bigger and bigger, and then became more and more gentle, more and more calm, and finally, it merged into the vast flood.
Soon, the whirlpool was back to its old self, as if nothing had happened.
It's just that the shout that called Kiyoko just now still echoed in the water for a long time, echoing, and refused to disperse for a long time......
“…… Kiyoko, I hurt you......"
Juanjuan looked at the stormy flood, she said "wow", and suddenly cried bitterly......
Many villagers in the surrounding trees also let out laments.
After a while, there was silence here, and everyone looked at the vast flood below, and their hearts were very uncomfortable, and no one spoke anymore.
The flood water kept surging into the distance. By this time, the sky was completely bright.
Now I can see clearly that the terrain where this village is located is a little low. That's why once the flood is overflowing, so many floods gather. As far as the eye could see, there were waves of floods everywhere in a radius of several miles.
Everyone was thinking about their hearts, and at this time, they heard an exciting voice suddenly come from the woods in the distance:
“…… Boat...... Boat...... Look, isn't that a ship?...... It's coming to us,...... We were saved......"
When the people in the trees heard this, their eyes lit up, and they pulled away the branches that were in front of them, and poked their heads out to look into the distance.
However, since this is a forest after all, most people's view is obscured by the leaves, so few of these people in the middle of the forest can actually see the boat. However, this is the case, and everyone is very excited when they hear it.
Although the eyes could not see, the voice came. Soon, everyone could hear the roar of the machine. It should be said that it must be the sound of jet skis.
At this time, I don't know who shouted loudly first:
“…… Hey, there's someone here...... We have someone here ......."
Moreover, some people took off their gowns and waved them desperately into the distance......
It turned out that it was the officers and soldiers of the People's Liberation Army who were fighting the flood and rescuing the people, wearing red life jackets and riding motorboats or wooden boats, and rushed here.
The woods immediately boiled. People cheered and encouraged each other, and those who could see the ships waved to the PLA.
The first few motorboats rushed to the front.
The People's Liberation Army above wanted to save people, and at this time, I heard someone in the tree shouting:
“…… Save the child now, save the child now, we are not in a hurry,...... There are few boats, so let children and women, as well as the elderly, get on the boat first...... Let the children and the elderly women get on the boat first......"
The middle-aged men in the trees waved their hands to the PLA below, and they took the initiative to give up the opportunity to escape to the children and women in the trees, as well as the older ones.
Soon, the boat was filled with rescued women, children, and some elderly villagers. The boats and motorboats, with them, were sent to the high ground in the distance.
The number of ships coming to the rescue is slowly increasing. These boats, back and forth. Some were carrying a boatload full of people and sailed into the distance, while others had just returned from a distance.
Juanjuan was also rescued from a tree and onto the ship by a People's Liberation Army. Soon, she was pulled to a land with the men on the boat.
Here, many rescued people have gathered. They were guided by a few cadre-looking people to a food distribution place, and each of them received a bottle of mineral water and some food.
Juanjuan had been hungry all night, and her stomach was already empty. She was still in a trance at this time, as if she was in a dream, holding the food in her hand, and was stunned for a long time, then she found an open space, sat there, and ate it to the full.
Obviously, in Juanjuan's mind, she still remembered the scene just now.
It was because he went up the tree and slammed it hard, and as a result, Gao Haiqing was put on the flood.
Juanjuan's heart was full of deep guilt and self-blame.
For this Gao Haiqing, Juanjuan's heart is actually very complicated.
It should be said that from the beginning, when Juanjuan was at the long-distance bus station and first met Gao Haiqing, she saw that he was very energetic and polite, and Juanjuan had a good impression of him.
Later, the two of them chatted in the car and in the process of climbing the mountain, and after chatting all the way, Juanjuan had a better impression of him.
However, it wasn't until later, when Juanjuan reacted that she was actually deceived by this guy who looked like a dog, and suddenly,
Juanjuan hated him to death.
After all, it was because of Gao Haiqing that he made himself miserable.
Later, the two of them were trapped there by the flood, one in a trap and the other in the yard, both floating in the water, because they were both in times of trouble, and each needed the other. At this time, Juanjuan's impression of Gao Haiqing was not so hateful.
Later, when swimming towards the woods, the two of them were interdependent, and they spent a difficult night in the water together, and at that time, Juanjuan knew a little more about him, and of course, Juanjuan's attitude towards him was a little complicated.
It wasn't until later when he went up the tree that Gao Haiqing was able to take the initiative to let Juanjuan step on his body and struggle to send Juanjuan to the tree, at that time, Juanjuan had actually changed her opinion of Gao Haiqing in her heart.
What worries Juanjuan is that Gao Haiqing was trampled into the flood because he saved himself, and watched him drown.
Juanjuan felt that her life was exchanged for Gao Haiqing's life.
Of course, thinking about it calmly, Juanjuan actually knew in her heart that Gao Haiqing had also killed her miserably.
But, anyway, I'm still alive after all. But Gao Haiqing is dead.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this that Juanjuan feels deeply remorseful.
Juanjuan sat there, vaguely recalling the experience of her and Gao Haiqing's mutual acquaintance, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.
Because she didn't sleep all night, she was exhausted, thinking about it, I don't know when, Juanjuan fell under a tree and fell asleep.
Even when she fell asleep, there were tears on Juanjuan's face.
I don't know how long I slept, but in the haze, Juanjuan heard someone screaming in her ear:
“…… Yes, yes, that's right. It's her, it's her......"
When Juanjuan heard this, she woke up suddenly, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that there were several people standing around, and they were talking about something around her. And these people among them are the young people she was abducted that day.
At the same time, there was a tall man standing in front of him, I saw him in his early forties, with a black face and a long beard, at this time, he was frowning, staring, and looking at Juanjuan with a puzzled face.
“…… It's this woman. …… When she was on the tree, she was the one who stepped Kiyoko into the water. If I want to see it, she actually did it on purpose. The same high-pitched voice was the one who said this.
“…… Uncle, take a step back, even if it wasn't intentional, then it can't be just counted, how to say it, this is also a human life......"
When Juanjuan heard this, she sat up at once, and she looked at these people in horror, not knowing what they were going to do.
“…… Are you the one who trampled my nephew into the water?" asked the big bearded uncle, who squatted down and looked at Juanjuan.
Juanjuan opened her eyes wide, nodded in fear, and said:
“…… Be...... That's right, but ...... But...... I didn't expect that the consequences would be like this, I ...... I didn't mean to......" Juanjuan didn't know how to explain this.
“…… Didn't you mean it to be over? Anyway, you trampled my nephew into the water anyway. My nephew is only in his twenties, and he has an old mother above him, waiting in the hospital to see a doctor, you say, what should I do about this? This is a human life......
Juanjuan looked at these people around her, where had she ever seen such a thing, she almost cried.
The man saw that Juanjuan was a little girl after all, and after a while, he continued to ask:
“…… Listening to your accent, it doesn't look like you're here?...... Tell me, where do you live, where is your father, how do you know my nephew?"
When Juanjuan heard this, she suddenly remembered something, and she explained:
“…… I...... My home was originally a provincial town, and I was ...... Given by your nephew...... For the trick to come here...... By the way, and a few of you...... Kidnapped me in the car. …… If you don't believe me, you can ask them a few ......"
While saying this, Juanjuan also glanced at those people.
Who would have thought that when those people heard this, they raised their heads and laughed, and asked:
“…… We deceived you? You're bloody. This is no joke. And, if you want to say that I lied to you, then tell me, what proof do you have? Who can prove it?"
