The two children rescued by the boatman were none other than Sister Hui and Brother Zhen, who Shen Shu thought would never meet again in her life after meeting them at the Jingzhou dock a few days ago. The two children were in a coma, they had been frozen in the water for a long time, their lips were a little bruised, their clothes were wet and sticking to their bodies, and they looked thinner and more pitiful.

Shen Shu quickly recovered from her surprise, and hurriedly got up to check on the situation of the two children, although her breathing was a little weak, but it was indeed there, which meant that they were still alive, she was relieved, but she couldn't completely put her mind at ease, she asked the boatman, "How are they doing?"

Although the boat family is not a doctor and does not know medical skills, he has lived on the water all his life, and the symptoms such as drowning are also judged more accurately, but he was a little surprised by Shen Shu's reaction, and looked at her a few times before saying, "As long as you spit out the water that you choked in, you should be able to wake up after resting." ”

Shen Shu was not at ease and asked, "Is it really okay?"

Seeing that she didn't answer, the boatman asked her, "Madame is so worried, do you know them?"

Shen Shu was stunned when she heard this, and after a while, she nodded in the end, "I know." ”

The conjecture came true, and the boatman was surprised for a while, "I didn't expect such a coincidence." After a pause, he continued, "I'll ask the child's mother to show this little girl if there are any injuries on her body, I think this child, if there are no injuries, it should be fine." ”

Shen Shu nodded, thanked the boatman, and then went back to sit on the other side.

Cui Yijing was still sitting obediently in place, but his eyes looked over there, and gradually showed a somewhat puzzled expression, seeing Shen Shu coming, he hesitated for a moment and asked her, "Mother, is it my sister and brother?"

Shen Shu didn't answer in the end, neither affirmed nor denied, but changed the topic with something else.

The couple checked the bodies of the two children, and said that they were lucky to have only a few bumps on their bodies, all on their arms or legs, chest, abdomen and head, but they had not woken up yet.

The night was getting deeper.

Shen Shu asked the boat family and his wife to help take care of the two children, and after coaxing Cui Yijing to sleep, he also lay down, but he was thinking about things and couldn't sleep for a while.

She couldn't guess what had happened in the past few days, so that the two children would have an accident and fall into the water, and they happened to be rescued by the boat's owner. Several days have passed since the farewell of the Jingzhou wharf, and the two boats have obviously gone in different directions...... No, Shen Shu recalled that he had seen the water map of the Southern Dynasties before, starting from Jingzhou, the waterway leading to Jian'an and Shaokang would have a section of intersection somewhere in the territory of Jiangzhou Prefecture, but it was recorded that the river at the intersection was narrow, the water flow was turbulent and dangerous, and there were many reefs and boulders, and ships could not pass at all.

She remembered that she had heard from the boatman that she had arrived in Jiangzhou Mansion. If the Xie family's boat arrived at about the same time and there was an accident, and the two children floated down from the waterway interchange, although it sounds incredible, it is not impossible.

Shen Shu tossed and turned, and fell asleep after a long time.

——

Sister Hui was awakened, she dreamed that she was in the darkness where she could not see her fingers, surrounded by a pair of eyes glowing with a faint green light, and a terrible roar, mixed with the smell of blood filled her nostrils.

Although she couldn't see it, she knew very well that there were man-eating beasts around her, and she had to keep running or she would be eaten.

She didn't know how long she had been running, her body was not much tired, but her psychological endurance had reached the limit, her feet suddenly lost control, and she couldn't take half a step no matter what, the beast's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the tip of her nose could already smell the fishy smell of the beast's mouth......

"Ahh

Because before falling into the water, she shouted for help and shouted in a hoarse voice, but now the screams are not loud, but it sounds hoarse and a little scary, which scared the ship's wife, who had been asleep for most of the night, and completely woke up, and saw Sister Hui who had sat up, and hurriedly asked, "Girl, what's wrong, is it a nightmare?"

When Sister Hui heard the sound, she found that there was a person beside her, and she turned her head a little blankly, "I...... Are you dead again?" as he spoke, he raised his eyes and looked around blankly, but the scene in his eyes was not at all like the imaginary underworld, it looked narrow and simple, and it was not terrible at all.

"Bah, bah!" the boatman's wife hurriedly covered her mouth, "What kind of dead words, it's unlucky! You just fell into the water, and you happened to be rescued by my old man!"

Sister Hui listened to the words of the boat lady and heard the key word of falling into the water, and her memory suddenly returned. Pouring rain, leaky cabins...... The last scene is that she and Brother Zhen were pushed off the boat, the cold river water slapped on her body, she grabbed Brother Zhen, and when the two were struggling to sink to the bottom, they luckily grabbed a piece of driftwood......

"Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen!" she suddenly panicked, her eyes were full of horror, and she lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed.

Mrs. Boatman hurriedly held her down and said hurriedly, "Don't panic, don't panic, the child with you has also been rescued, he is fine, he is lying next door resting." ”

When Sister Hui heard this, she barely calmed down, "Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen...... Father ......" she shouted twice, and then suddenly began to cry, big tears slipped from her eyes, accompanied by a hoarse voice, the boat lady on the side was very distressed, she once had a girl who was almost so big, although she was not as handsome as Sister Hui in front of her, but she was a well-behaved and sensible person, and then because of an illness, at this time I saw Sister Hui like this, I couldn't help but think of the child, and hurriedly hugged her in my arms to comfort, "Don't cry, don't cry, it's all over, don't cry." ”

There are some things that you can guess even without asking. If it weren't for something, how could the two children fall into the water, if it wasn't for the luck of her old man, these two children would not have survived.

With someone to comfort her, Sister Hui cried even more sadly, and only muttered a few words over and over again, "Father...... Mother...... Brother Zhen's ......"

She cried for a long time, but when she woke up, her body could not recover, and gradually her voice became lower and lower, and finally she was tired and closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The night passed quickly.

In the morning, not long after the sun rose, it shone through the clouds on the surface of the river, neither warm nor dazzling, and the sparkling waves reflected its reflection into countless fragments, scattered and gathered.

Brother Zhen woke up at this time, opened his eyes to look at the unfamiliar environment, and after being stunned for a moment, he opened his mouth directly and cried, his voice was as hoarse as Sister Hui'er before, and there were two strings of tears on his white jade-like little face, which made people feel very distressed.

When he cried, he woke up Sister Hui'er, who had only been asleep for a long time, heard his voice, lifted the quilt and followed the sound barefoot, and rushed over to hug him after seeing people, at first comforting him and telling him not to be sad and not to cry, but gradually he cried with him.

Shen Shu next door also woke up, naturally heard the cries of the two children, and couldn't suppress the distress, but he couldn't make up his mind to go over and look at it. After a while, she suddenly thought that there was Cui Yijing, and he must have woken up too......

Just thinking of this, I heard Cui Yijing's voice sound, "Brother, sister!"

Shen Shu was stunned.

And Sister Hui and Brother Zhen in the room over there also stopped crying for the time being, and slowly turned their heads to look over.

"Ah Jing! Ah Jing!" Brother Zhen came back to his senses first.

Then Sister Hui also came back to her senses, and said in disbelief, "Brother Jing'er, why are you here?" She let go of the whole thing, ran over with a little staggering, grabbed Cui Yijing's hand, and there was a warm touch on her hand, which meant that the person in front of her was real and alive.

"You're really okay...... What about the mother? Is the mother okay?" she quickly thought of Shen Shu, because the two of them fell off the cliff together, if Cui Yijing was still talking, Shen Shu should be fine.

As soon as her words fell, she saw a familiar voice appear at the door, it was Shen Shu.

Although she expected that Shen Shu might not be dead, when the person really appeared in front of her, Sister Hui was still stunned, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, and she took three steps and two steps into Shen Shu's arms, "Mother...... Mother ......" She suddenly burst into tears, as if she wanted to pour out all her grievances.

After that, Brother Zhen also ran over, hugged Shen Shu's leg, and cried.

Shen Shu was too busy reassuring them to think about anything else for a while.

The couple stood at the other end, watching the development of things, and their eyes suddenly became extremely complicated.

It took Shen Shu a long time to coax the two of them down, and she also pieced together a useful piece of information from Sister Hui'er's intermittent confiding.

The reason for their accident was that in the pouring rain, a small boat suddenly appeared behind their ship and quickly caught up with them. Because the heavy rain obscured the view and sound, by the time the family on the ship found out that something was wrong, a group of black-clad and masked people had already boarded the boat. Because of the accident in the canyon before, Xie Changning was a lot more vigilant, and hired more than a dozen strong and good people to accompany him in Jingzhou City, and the two sides moved their hands on the deck. This group of people was much more ferocious than the previous homeless, and soon both people were injured.

Their target was Xie Changning, completely ignoring others, although most of them were blocked by the family, but there were still people who rushed in front of Xie Changning, and the dagger with a flickering cold light was completely submerged in his chest, which was an injury that the divine doctor could not save even if he was alive. As if they had completed their mission, the men jumped into the water and swam back to the boat, fleeing in a hurry.

The Xie family was immersed in panic and pain, and after a long time, they found that the cabin was leaking, and the ship was about to sink after a long time.

There was a panic all of a sudden.

And Sister Hui and Brother Zhen were pushed off the boat by Aunt Zhou in a panic.
