Chapter 6 Entering the Water to Save People
"If you have to ride, let's go." Peng Fei greeted Wei Guo, and then rode into the car and left first.
"Hey, I said, you wait for me. Obviously you're riding a new car, why are you pedaling so fast? "Wei Guo is in hot pursuit.
While talking, the two came to the edge of the reservoir. This reservoir belongs to the town, and although it is not very large, it will still be cooler where there is water. So when it's okay, adults and children who are close to me are willing to come here to walk around, or sit for a while.
Maybe it's because it's so hot today, and the leaves of the pear trees in the pear orchard by the reservoir seem to be a little wilted. So in this vicinity, except for Peng Fei and Wei Guo, who are racing on the road between the reservoir and the pear orchard, there is really no one else.
After a while, "Peng Fei, I'm dying of heat, let's rest for a while." ”
"Well, I'm feeling a little hot too. Let's find a cool place to rest for a while. ”
"I think it's fine under the pear tree, let's go, let's push the cart over."
The two pushed the cart into the pear orchard, found a pear tree with a large canopy, leaned the cart against the tree, and they sat down on the ground. It's really cooler under the shade of the trees, and the light breeze blowing from the direction of the reservoir makes it quite pleasant.
"Peng Fei, I'm a little thirsty, you can help me buy a popsicle."
"As long as you have a lot to do, go by yourself, I don't care about the."
"It's not okay for me to invite you to eat together, I brought a dollar when I came out, a popsicle for five cents a piece, just one for each of us." Saying that, Wei Guo forced the money into Peng Fei's hand and pulled him up from the ground, "Oh, go, go, go, I'm waiting for you here." ”
"You're too lazy!" Peng Fei reluctantly pushed the cart out of the pear orchard.
There is a small shop on the edge of the village not far from the pear orchard, and it takes less than five minutes to cycle back and forth. So as soon as Peng Fei left, he reappeared in Wei Guo's sight after a while, which made Wei Guo feel very happy. Not because he saw Peng Fei, but because he saw the popsicle in the basket in front of Peng Fei at a glance. Just a minute ago, Wei Guo was still complaining to himself, "Oh, why did I forget to tell Peng Fei that I want bean paste." This kid won't buy all the cream. But he could clearly see now that one of the two popsicles was creamy and the other was puree.
Wei Guo grabbed the popsicle with bean paste, took a bite of it fiercely, and then said, "Great, I'm afraid you'll buy it all into cream." ”
"I knew you loved beans, so I bought you one. But I think it's still the cream that tastes good. ”
"The bean paste is delicious."
"The cream is delicious."
"The bean paste is delicious."
"The cream is delicious."
“……”
"Help!"
Peng Fei and Wei Guo suddenly stopped arguing, and they all pricked up their ears at the same time to listen carefully.
"Peng Fei, I seem to have heard someone shouting for help just now."
"I heard it too, but why is it silent now? Could it be that it has sunk to the bottom? ”
"Look at you, you'll be gloating here if you're fine."
"You're gloating."
"You're gloating."
"Help! Help me! ”
"It doesn't seem to have sunk to the bottom yet, quick, Weiguo, let's hurry up and take a look." Saying that, Peng Fei and Wei Guo threw away the remaining popsicles, and ran out of the pear orchard one after the other and came to the reservoir.
"Help me! Help me! I saw a boy about the same age as Peng Fei and them, splashing in the water about ten meters from the shore. But no matter how much he pounced, he couldn't get ashore, he was always in that one place. And it looked like he was already physically exhausted, so his head sometimes surfaced and sometimes sank.
"Peng Fei, what are you going to do?" When Wei Guo saw Peng Fei running to the water's edge and was about to jump down, he grabbed Peng Fei from behind.
"Of course I went to save him, didn't you see that he was drowning?"
Wei Guo hesitated for a moment, and then said to Peng Fei: "Wait a minute. He turned around and ran into the pear orchard, quickly untying a rope wrapped around the shelf behind his car. Didn't you say above, this car belongs to Wei Guo's mother. Wei Guo has several rabbits, so his mother often goes down to the field to cut the grass and feed the rabbits home, and the rope wrapped around the shelf behind the car is used to bundle the grass. Wei Guo took the rope and hurriedly came to the water's edge, "Peng Fei, let's use this to save him." ”
"Okay." Peng Fei grabbed one end of the rope and threw it at the boy in the water. Unfortunately, the rope was not long enough, so Peng Fei and Wei Guo walked four or five meters into the water, and then threw the rope to him again.
This time, the boy finally grabbed the rope. "Wow! Wei. Peng Fei and Wei Guo pulled the boy to the shore hard. But he only pulled him three or four meters forward from his original place, and then he couldn't pull it anymore.
"My feet are tangled in the weeds below." Just listen to the boy yelling.
"No wonder we couldn't pull it, it turned out that his foot was entangled. Wei Guo, you pull the rope, and I'll help him untie the aquatic weeds that are entangled in his feet. ”
"Okay. But be careful, if you don't feel good, hurry up, don't be reckless! Although Wei Guo knew that Peng Fei was very good at water, at least among the people he knew. But he was still a little uneasy, so he instructed later.
"I see, you have to hold on to the rope." With that, Peng Fei swam towards the boy. When the boy saw Peng Fei swimming towards him, he freed up a hand and stretched out to Peng Fei, meaning to let Peng Fei pull him up. Peng Fei once heard his father say that if you go into the water to save people, you must not let the person who falls into the water catch you, otherwise you will be dragged into the water and drowned. So Peng Fei stopped about a meter away from the boy and said to the boy, "Don't let go of your hands, hold on to the rope." ”
"But I can't hold on."
"If you hold on a little longer, I'll help you untie the aquatic plants underneath, and then my classmates will be able to pull you ashore right away."
After listening to Peng Fei's words, the boy withdrew the hand that was stretched out to Peng Fei, grasped the rope tightly, and gritted his teeth and continued to hold on. However, it can be seen that his physical strength has been almost exhausted, and if he is not rescued from the shore as soon as possible, he will eventually sink to the bottom due to the exhaustion of his physical strength. So Peng Fei took a deep breath, and a fierce man plunged into the water.
Since the water is not very deep, the light below is ok. Peng Fei saw that there were three or four long aquatic plants, intertwined and wrapped the boy's feet into a strong knot. He stretched out his hand to pull them, trying to tear them all with force, but the aquatic plants were very slippery, and it was difficult to hold them.
"What can I do?" At this moment, Peng Fei was very anxious.
