Chapter Twenty-Nine: Saving Lives
Chen Qiaoshan's mind is a little blank, this is not making a movie.
Usually, people often drive their cars to the barrage, some to cross the road, some to wash their cars, but they all drive down the slope slowly.
The car was obviously accelerating down the slope just now, and only when it reached the bottom of the slope did it start to turn towards the dam, and it was obviously too late, and the Santana 2000 was too fast to rush directly into the river.
There was a thunderous sound of falling water, and a large splash of water flew in the distance.
Chen Qiaoshan was a little frightened, and secretly warned himself in his heart that he must be cautious when driving in the future.
The last time he saw Zhou Rui in the brick factory, he was already worried about the fate of the Santana 2000, just now, it was obvious that he stepped on the accelerator and rushed directly to the brakes.
After a moment's attention, the movement on the barrage had attracted the attention of the other side of the river, and someone had already run along the slope to the dam.
Chen Qiaoshan also reacted, hurriedly greeted, lifted his shoes and ran to the dam barefoot.
When he arrived at the dam, Chen Qiaoshan saw the scene clearly, Santana jumped out five or six meters away, the front of the car was planted directly into the river, most of the body had been submerged in the water, only a section of the butt of the car was exposed to the water.
"What should I do?" Sun Guangming's voice was visibly trembling.
"Let's go over and have a look first!" Chen Qiaoshan ran directly to the other side of the dam, and the two hurriedly followed.
When I ran to the place of the accident, there were already several people nearby, but they were all old men and old women, who should be the ones who were cooling off in the grove.
Santana has been in the water for nearly a minute, and standing on the dam, I can't see the situation inside the car, I can only see the water waves around the body, and the body of the car floating on the water is slowly decreasing.
Chen Qiaoshan had seen similar news in his previous life, and he knew that it only took two or three minutes for a car with closed windows to sink from falling into the water to sinking.
He thought about how to get the person out, judging by the sinking speed of the car, Santana must have turned on the air conditioner and closed the windows just now, otherwise the car would have sunk to the bottom of the water.
Now there is still air in the car, it is definitely unrealistic to want to push the car door under the huge water pressure, and the person in the car has not climbed out now, it is certainly unrealistic to expect him to save himself, and if you want to save people, you can only smash the car window.
Thinking of this, Chen Qiaoshan hurriedly shouted to Sun Guangming, who was standing beside him, "Fatty, you go to the shore to find a sharp stone, go quickly!" After speaking, he directly began to undress.
Chen Qiaoshan took off his short sleeves and found that Sun Guangming was standing beside him without moving, so he yelled anxiously: "Sun Guangming, what are you still doing in a daze, go to the shore and pick up a sharp point of stone!"
Sun Guangming was still stunned and looked at him blankly, Chen Qiaoshan simply threw down the clothes in his hand, ran to the shore in a few steps, found a stone with a sharp corner protruding on the slope, picked it up and checked it, felt that the weight was about the same, and hurriedly turned around and ran back.
As soon as he took a step, he felt a piercing pain in the sole of his left foot, and then he remembered that he was not wearing shoes.
It's okay to run barefoot on the dam, but when you get to the shore, there are broken stones or something, and I don't know what I stepped on just now, this will hurt my feet so badly, and he can't care about saving people, so he hurriedly ran to the dam.
Back at the place where the accident occurred, Chen Qiaoshan began to take off his pants, Sun Guangming reacted and grabbed him and said, "Dashan, you are crazy! Can you swim?"
Chen Qiaoshan shook off his hand and said, "Didn't I tell you, I grew up by the water!"
Yan Xiaoqin hurriedly said: "When is this, don't be a hero here, you still grew up by the water, how can we have so many watersides?"
Chen Qiaoshan didn't have time to explain to them, so he only took off a pair of red pants and prepared to go into the water.
An old man on the side suddenly grabbed his arm and asked, "Young man, do you know how to swim? This is not the time for jokes!"
Chen Qiaoshan couldn't care so much, seeing that the entire body was completely submerged in the water, he hurriedly pushed the old man away and grabbed the stone he found, "Uncle, don't worry, I'm fine!" After speaking, he jumped directly into the river.
This was the first time Chen Qiaoshan had entered the water since he came, and he choked on the water suddenly, but he quickly mastered his balance, found the feeling of being in the water in his previous life, and stabilized his mind floating on the water.
Yan Xiaoqin looked at him, and jumped to his feet in a hurry, "You still save people like this, Chen Qiaoshan, you come up for me!"
"Don't worry, it's okay!" Chen Qiaoshan ignored her, looked at Santana five or six meters away, took a few deep breaths to adjust his emotions, and swam sideways to the car.
When he got to Santana, the car was almost all sunk into the water, and through the rear windshield in the water, he could barely see a figure in the back seat of the car, carefully distinguishing the color of his clothes, and basically determined that the one trapped in the car was Zhou Rui who he saw in the Internet café.
The people on the shore saw that Chen Qiaoshan had swam to the side of the car, and asked loudly about the situation in the car, "The person in the car is Zhou Rui, the son of Zhou Guangcai of the wholesale department, and someone who knows him will call his family." ”
After Chen Qiaoshan shouted, he didn't care about the reaction of the people on the dam, patted the rear windshield with his hand in the water, and then buried his head in the water and stared inside, and found that the figure in the car was shaking violently, it seems that Zhou Rui is still safe so far.
He took a deep breath, dived directly into the water and touched the back door of the car along the body, pulled the door and did not move, he did not hesitate any longer, and directly took the stone to expose the sharp corners and smashed it against the window glass.
As soon as the smashing was finished, a stream of water rushed into the car, and Chen Qiaoshan suddenly felt a huge suction, which startled him, and hurriedly threw away the stone in his hand, propping up the body and moving out of a position.
At this time, Santana began to sink at a visible speed, and the people on the shore also saw this and broke out into a huge exclamation.
Chen Qiaoshan buried his head in the water and stared at the movement below, and could clearly see a figure getting out of the car, and then struggling violently in the water.
He didn't have time to think about it, took a deep breath, and a fierce man plunged into the water and dived towards the place where Santana sank, but just touched the roof of the car, and he couldn't hold back his breath directly.
He found that he was a little taken for granted, he was no problem with swimming but not at diving, his physical fitness was fine, but his lung capacity was obviously not as good as in his previous life.
The depth of the water here is close to three meters, and Zhou Rui doesn't look like he can swim, it is definitely unrealistic to expect him to swim up by himself, Chen Qiaoshan thought about what to do.
There were more and more people on the shore, but none of them dared to take off their clothes and go into the water, Sun Guangming and Yan Xiaoqin could only look at the situation on the river with concern, and secretly sweated for Chen Qiaoshan.
Chen Qiaoshan was also a little panicked floating on the water, it would definitely not work if it went on like this, it had been delayed for half a minute, Zhou Rui must have choked on the water, thinking of this, he gritted his teeth to calm down his emotions, took a sharp breath and plunged down again.
This time he tried to relax as much as he could, pinpointed the position of the car, and dived underwater, and now that the light was abundant and the water was good, he could easily see a blurry image struggling near the car, but the range of movement was significantly smaller.
This time, he successfully dived to the bottom of the water, slowly approaching the body, and he opened his eyes and found Zhou Rui's figure.
Chen Qiaoshan knew that he couldn't just approach the person who fell into the water so rashly, otherwise he would be entangled by him and the two of them would be finished together. He leaned around the body and went around Zhou Rui's back, and suddenly clamped his neck with his arm, Zhou Rui was still struggling, but obviously he didn't have much strength.
With the help of Zhou Rui's body, he adjusted his posture and kicked violently under the water, with the help of this force, his hands and feet paddled hard, and finally brought the person away from the bottom of the water.
The people on the shore have been staring at the water since Chen Qiaoshan's second entry into the water, and they can't see the situation under the water in the distance when they stand on the dam.
Yan Xiaoqin looked at the water surface and didn't move for a long time, and couldn't help but shout Chen Qiaoshan's name loudly, and Sun Guangming also shouted.
Someone on the side persuaded: "Don't shout, save some effort, what you can't hear in the water, it's hard for the two of you to sink together!"
Yan Xiaoqin glared at the speaker hatefully, and shouted Chen Qiaoshan's name loudly with all his strength, with a crying tone in his voice, and the people around him couldn't help but fall silent when they heard this heart-rending shout.
Chen Qiaoshan tried his best to take Zhou Rui up for a distance, feeling that he had reached his limit, he couldn't help but exhale, a strong desire to breathe in his heart swelled up, and his chest was also uncomfortable, and he could only give up Zhou Rui to float, at this time he suddenly saw the roof of Santana sinking into the water, and he was overjoyed.
Santana's body is nearly one meter five, standing on the roof of the car can completely lift Zhou Rui out of the water, thinking of this, he quickly adjusted his posture, dragged Zhou Rui up with his last breath, and stepped on the roof of the car and straightened up.
Chen Qiaoshan tilted his head and barely exposed his mouth and nose to the water, breathing in the air he hadn't seen for a long time, and then let go of Zhou Rui, holding his head out of the water with both hands from under his armpits.
The crowd on the shore saw both of them emerge from the water, and there was a cheer for a while.
He would also be exhausted, and all his strength would have been exhausted after such a short time under the water, and if he hadn't seen the roof of the car just now, he would definitely not be able to hold on, so he could only surface first and then think of other ways.
After resting on the roof of the car for a while, he looked at the situation of Zhou Rui next week, and knew that he couldn't stay any longer, his situation was not very good, he had already lost consciousness underwater, and it would be more dangerous to delay for one more minute, although he didn't deal with himself, but the two of them didn't have any deep hatred, not to mention that saving someone's life was also a merit.
Chen Qiaoshan took a deep breath, determined the direction, put one hand on Zhou Rui's chest, let him lie on his back in the water and expose his head to the water, and then leaned sideways to support him and began to swim towards the barrage.
They were now only five or six meters away from the barrage, and as soon as their feet left the roof of the car, Chen Qiaoshan felt that something was wrong.
