Chapter 1: Overboard

Next Chapter

In mid-May, the weather gradually gets hotter.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is about to set, it is the coolest time of the day, the blue park has become the best sports place in the surrounding community, many nearby residents take advantage of this rare coolness, gather in the blue park to exercise, walk, it seems very lively.

Fang Heng wore a vest and shorts, and running shoes on his feet, joining the flow of people jogging around the central lake of Azure Park.

He ran on his own, and from time to time someone around him overtook him, and he didn't care, just kept his own rhythm, not in a hurry, while looking around, enjoying the beautiful scenery in the park, enjoying the cool breeze blowing from the lake, it seemed very comfortable.

As he was looking, he suddenly saw a girl in her early twenties not far in front of him, with long black hair and a plain white printed dress, facing the lake, not knowing what she was looking at.

He took a few looks, but he felt that this girl was very beautiful, no worse than those female stars who painted makeup on the Internet, but this kind of girl estimated that there were many suitors, and it was not his turn, so he didn't care, and soon trotted over.

However, just as he had crossed the fence and had not run a few steps, he suddenly heard a popping sound behind him, and he looked back to see that the girl standing in front of the fence had disappeared, leaving only the spreading ripples of the lake.

Suicide by jumping into a lake?

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, someone who saw the girl jumping off shouted: "Someone has committed suicide by jumping into the lake!" Hurry up and save people! ”

He didn't have time to think about it, turned around and took a few steps to the spot where the girl had jumped, and as soon as he climbed over the fence, he jumped.

"Someone went down!"

"Hurry up and save people! Who knows how to swim? ”

Only then did the people on the shore gather around, but no one was seen on the lake, only the aftermath was agitated.

As soon as he entered the water, Fang Heng barely opened his eyes, and after only a slight search, he saw the girl who jumped into the lake, constantly sinking to the bottom of the lake.

The lake made the girl's long hair flutter, and her hands were raised high, as if she was the last attachment to this world before she died.

Fang Heng quickly swam towards the girl, and soon caught up with her, and then stretched out his right hand, wanting to grab the hand that the girl was holding.

Seeing that his hand was about to grab the other party, Fang Heng found that the Buddhist bead bracelet he had been wearing on his right hand suddenly emitted a golden glow.

Such a strange thing made him stunned.

What's the situation?

He doesn't remember that he has worn the Buddha bead bracelet for several years, and it also has its own local tyrant gold marquee effect.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and I saw that the girl who had closed her eyes before and kept sinking naturally to the bottom of the lake suddenly opened a pair of blood-red eyes, and the blue tendons on her face burst out, as if the veins were still open, and her face was hideous, sweeping away the beautiful face she had seen on the shore before, looking at Fang Heng like a ghost.

She stared at Fang Heng, the corners of her mouth curled, revealing a creepy weird smile

Suddenly seeing such a terrifying and terrifying situation, Fang Heng only felt that the cold hairs on his back stood on end, as if even the lake water had dropped below zero, cold and biting.

In a panic, he didn't hold his breath, and immediately a fishy lake water poured into his mouth.

He hurriedly made amends, turned around and tried to escape, but unfortunately, the distance between the two was very close, and the girl only reached out and grabbed his foot when he turned around, and then pulled him to the bottom of the lake.

The girl's five fingers were slender, her palm was small, and she only grabbed half of Fang Heng's ankle, but no matter how he struggled and kicked his legs, he couldn't get rid of the girl's pull, and was dragged to the bottom of the lake.

At this time, Fang Heng was already a little unable to hold on, but the desire to survive made him still bend down in the water, wanting to break the five fingers that the girl was holding on to his ankle with his hand.

However, the other party is no longer human, and the strength naturally cannot be calculated by convention, although the five white and slender fingers look weak, but the strength is really amazing, like steel clamps, clasping his ankles, no matter how he breaks it, he can't shake it at all.

By this time, he was already desperate, his oxygen was exhausted, his stomach was filled with water, and his consciousness gradually began to blur, but at this moment, there was suddenly a golden light in front of him, and then, even in the water, he still heard an unwilling scream gradually moving away.

Immediately after, he felt the hand that was gripping his ankle loosen.

It's a pity that it's too late.

His mind was completely plunged into darkness due to the lack of oxygen to his brain.

…………

Because of the good environment, there are many high-end communities around Azure Park.

At this time, in a room in a nearby community, it seems that some mysterious religious ritual is going on.

It was a room of no more than 20 square meters, with no ordinary furniture available, and the floor, ceiling, and four walls were covered with black paper among the five colors.

This kind of paper is generally only used in white affairs and sacrifices, to make various paper offerings, ordinary people will not use this kind of paper for anything, let alone cover the walls of the entire room with this kind of paper.

The black, five-colored paper, which covered the room, was filled with sloppy, scribbled, irregular, incantation-like mystical characters written in cinnabar.

These characters glow slightly red, and against the backdrop of black five-colored paper, they seem to be written in blood, which is particularly conspicuous.

In the center of the room, a middle-aged man in his thirties, dressed in a silk coat and black trousers, sits cross-legged on a futon with a strange handprint in both hands.

The bright red incantation characters written on the black five-colored paper on the ground are all centered around him.

In addition to these strange incantations, in front of him, there was also a small jade-colored incense burner, in which were two black incense sticks, and two thick white candles on the left and right.

Two small flames were the only light source in this room, but its light was reduced, as if it was invisibly suppressed, and it was clear that the flames were very large, but they could not illuminate this room, and could only maintain the light in a small area around the incense burner.

Through this strange light, you can see five small dolls less than the length of a palm lying in front of the incense burner.

The five little figures lay in a circle with the soles of their feet as the center.

Three of them were bareheaded, had no facial features, and wore small paper clothes.

However, this is not the case with the other two.

One of them is a man in a suit and leather shoes, and the other is a girl with long black hair and a long white printed dress.

The girl's face is delicate and beautiful, her eyes are slightly closed, if you skim off the size, in a trance, people still think that the little girl is alive, but her body has shrunk more than ten times.

Under the light of the faint red glow around him, the face of the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the futon was blurred, and the five small dolls in front of the incense burner added to the strange and terrifying atmosphere in this room.

There was silence in the room, and I don't know how long it lasted.

However, just when the golden light of the Buddhist bead bracelet worn by Fang Heng on his right wrist in the lake was in full bloom, the flames of the two white candles suddenly trembled, and the two unique black incense sticks suddenly broke, and among the five dolls lying in front of the incense burner with the soles of the feet in the circle, the girl puppet suddenly burst into flames.

This flame is different from ordinary flames, it does not release ordinary light, but blooms with golden light.

In the light, a faint ethereal Buddha sound appeared, and when he was caught off guard, the middle-aged man spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his blurred face almost became hideous.

As this mouthful of blood spurted out, the bright red incantation written on the black five-colored paper in the entire room was bright at the same time, and the scarlet light quickly converged, confronting the golden Buddha light that bloomed when the flame burned.

But in the end, the Buddha's light was faint, and the red light quickly gained the upper hand and suppressed it along with the flames.

Eventually, the flame is extinguished and the Buddha light disappears.

However, it was too late.

The ritual was interrupted, and the injuries were unavoidable, in addition to the middle-aged man's serious injuries and vomiting blood, the beautiful girl doll was also damaged.

Only a slight creaking sound was heard, and cracks quickly appeared on the blackened girl doll, and it was immediately torn apart and turned into tatters.

The middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes, and in addition to the pale face after being injured, there was murderous intent and anger on his face.

He slammed his hateful fist on the ground, his face was hideous, and he spit out two words with anger: "Buddha Gate!" ”

…………

"How? Is there any salvation? ”

"Why hasn't 120 come yet?"

"Don't get so close! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”

"I'm a doctor, get out of the way!"

The embankment by the lake was covered with water trails, and two soaking wet young men stood in the crowd, concerned about the well-being of the people they had rescued.

The crowd of onlookers was in a commotion, and through the cracks, a middle-aged man could be seen giving first aid to a person lying on the ground, and a middle-aged woman was half-squatting on the side, working as a helper under the command of the middle-aged man.

People in the circle are busy saving people, and people outside the circle are talking about it, and some people question it first.

"It's strange, what I saw just now was a girl and a boy who jumped into the lake one after another, why is it a little girl who is rescued now?"

"You're dazzled, aren't you?"

"Impossible! Not only me, but many people have seen that it is a man and a woman! The woman was in her early twenties, and the man was about twenty years old. It was the woman who jumped first, and then the man passed by and jumped down too, presumably to save someone. ”

"Could it be that three people jumped into the lake?"

"But there's no one in the lake anymore!"

A soaking wet man said while wringing the water from his clothes, and after speaking, he asked another man who was also soaking wet, and asked, "I went down and only found this little girl, what about you?" ”

"I only see this little girl."

"That's weird!"

Several people around who saw the whole process looked at each other, and one of them suddenly shivered and said, "It can't be a hell, right?" ”

"What the hell? Are you kidding? Although they were equally confused, some people did not believe this: "This is broad daylight...... What hell, can you still come up alive? ”

"It's also ......"

Several people felt that it made sense, and at this moment, the crowd of onlookers suddenly let out a cheer: "Wake up, wake up!" ”

"Are you alright?"

"It's good to wake up! Ask her how she ended up in the lake. What about her parents? ”

When I opened my eyes in a daze, there was a chaotic cheer in my ears, and the first thing I saw was an uncle who was middle-aged, but still slightly handsome.

I'm not dead? I'm saved?!

These two thoughts flashed through Fang Heng's mind, and he immediately realized that he was really not dead, it must have been after he entered the water, and the people on the shore saw that he had not surfaced for a long time, so someone went into the water to help.

So, he was saved!

A feeling of escaping death and reliving a life arises spontaneously.

He felt weak, but he was still holding on to the ground, struggling to get to his feet, but he soon realized that something was wrong with him.

Why are your hands so small?!

The hands that support the ground are short and thin.

Why are the clothes so big?!

The vest was worn loosely on the body, almost dragging to the knees.

Why are you so short?!

Although he had already stood up, the middle-aged uncle in front of him was half-squatting on the ground, but it was still almost parallel to his face.

Before he could figure out the situation, he heard the other party ask in a gentle voice, "Little sister, how is it?" Is there anything you don't feel comfortable with? ”

Little sister? Uncle! Are you getting the wrong gender? I'm a big man, in public, you call me little sister?

Fang Heng opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he felt a hot pain in his throat, which caused a violent cough.

He coughed and coughed, and it seemed that he couldn't stop coughing, and he coughed until he lowered his head and bent over, causing a burst of vomiting, but nothing came out, only some sour water.

The middle-aged woman on the side asked anxiously, "Old Song, what's going on?" ”

The middle-aged uncle's brows furrowed, and when he saw that the little girl was coughing uncomfortably, he gently patted her back and touched the other party's forehead: "I have a cold, I have a high fever!" Gotta get to the hospital quickly! ”

"Why hasn't the ambulance come yet?"

As soon as someone finished speaking, he heard a siren in the distance.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

With a whistling sound, the ambulance arrived at the scene, the nurse lifted the stretcher, and the little girl who fell into the water was quickly helped up and sent to the ambulance, and the middle-aged uncle and middle-aged woman who had just given first aid to the little girl also followed.

The ambulance only stopped for a moment, and then left the scene with a roar, leaving only a group of people at the scene talking and puzzled.

Afterwards, someone still called the police, suspecting that there were still two people in the lake who had not been rescued, but after a day or two of search and rescue, there was no trace of them.

The person who called the police was almost regarded as a false policeman, but fortunately, there were many people who swore that there were still two people who did not go ashore, and after all the records were made, it was gone.

Of course, this is later, and at this time, the ambulance was rushing to the nearby hospital, and the doctors and nurses in the car seemed to be very familiar with the middle-aged man who followed the car, and the male doctor in the car also smiled: "Fortunately, Director Song was present and did some first aid, otherwise this little girl would be in danger." ”

After speaking, he glanced at the woman sitting next to Song Wencheng and asked, "Is this Director Song's wife?" ”

"Well, this is my wife, Lin Yuqin." Song Wencheng introduced with a smile.

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

The two sides greeted each other amicably, and then the focus was on the little girl lying on the stretcher.

At this time, the nurse on the bus put an oxygen mask on the little girl, and was measuring her blood pressure, giving injections, and doing everything she could, and then she had to be sent to the hospital for rescue as soon as possible.

"Strange, why is this little girl wearing an adult vest?" The doctor on the bus only expressed his doubts at this time.

The little girl looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, with bare feet and only an adult male vest on her body, and the shoulder straps on both sides of the vest barely hung on the little girl, but other than that, the little girl was wearing nothing inside, basically the same as naked or naked.

"I don't know." Song Wencheng had actually noticed this a long time ago, but he didn't know the reason, so he could only shake his head and respond.

The doctor on the car was just strange, and seeing that Song Wencheng didn't know, he didn't say anything more.
