Chapter 36: Help
Chen Ming's jump completely exceeded Zhao Sha's expectations, and the reason why Zhao Sha, who was hurrying to catch up with Chen Ming, chose to do it here was because there was only one direction for advancing and retreating here, which could minimize the possibility of Chen Ming's escape.
Who knows, Chen Ming actually jumped into the river for a dead dog.
Zhao Sha hurriedly ran over, raising her right palm as she ran. I saw that the cement on the bridge moved like flowing water, and quickly changed into a huge cement giant hand grabbing Chen Ming, who was falling quickly. But how could the speed of the giant hand be as fast as Chen Ming's falling speed, and the giant hand grabbed it fiercely and only caught a cloud of air.
Zhao Sha could only watch as Chen Ming, who was holding the mango, fell into the Yangtze River and disappeared.
Zhao Sha looked at the surging river below with a pale face, and just watched his prey disappear in front of his eyes.
Li Shize slowly walked up with his Tibetan mastiff and stood behind Zhao Sha, he said in a flat tone: "If you fall so high, 8 percent will be dead, and the corpse is estimated to have rushed to where it didn't know or directly fed the fish and shrimp in the river." Now that your prey is gone, it's time to go find my prey. ”
"Shut up!" Zhao Sha scolded unceremoniously, "Let's go along the river to find him, he can't die so easily, we will definitely be able to find him again." ”
Zhao Sha's anger made Li Shize's character sink for a moment, but he immediately regained his smile, "Okay, let's look for it slowly along the river." ”
…
There is a lake outside Baling City, called Yunmengze, which is a famous freshwater lake in the country since ancient times. The lake is wide and does not know how many thousand miles, and the vast and mighty can not be seen at a glance, so the ancients wrote poems to praise the clouds:
The August Lake is level, and the culvert is too clear.
Steaming cloud Mengze, shaking Baling City.
If you want to help without a boat, you will be ashamed and sage.
Sitting and watching the anglers, there is nothing to envy the fish.
At this time, there was a large seven-seater MPV parked by the lake in Yunmengze. Next to the car there is a white folding table and four brown folding chairs. There were some fruits, melon seeds, and peanuts on the table, and the two women sat on the chairs and silently processed the fruits, peeling, dicing, and plating.
One of the girls was older, in her 50s, and wore a brown cotton and linen dress. There was a hint of sorrow between her brows, but she always had a gentle smile on her face, hiding that sorrow in her own smile.
The other woman was much younger and pretty, in her 20s, wearing a loose and comfortable white T-shirt and black pants, and her long black hair was running from her head to her waist. The corners of her eyebrows resembled those of an older woman, but her face was always grim, and she only smiled when she faced the older woman.
Next to them, a boy of about 3 years old was squatting on the ground and teasing an earthworm. The earthworm wriggled on the ground, and the boy poked the earthworm with a small branch in his hand, and the earthworm was pricked by the branch, and bounced the ground to amuse the boy.
Luckily, the boy's mouth was gagged, otherwise he would have laughed.
Not far away, by the lake, an elderly man dressed in black was sitting on a small pony, with a few fishing rods tied in front of him, and three or four palm-sized fish were already in the bucket next to him. He had a cigarette in his mouth, and from time to time he took a puff and spit out a smoke ring, and his eyes were intently watching the drifts of the rods, ready to take the fish at any moment.
The wind gradually picked up on the calm surface of the lake, and a black thing gradually drifted in the distance. As the black object approached the lake, the man saw the black object clearly, and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground in surprise. He quickly got up and ran to the car, and said to the two women in unskilled sign language, "Man, there's a man floating on the lake." ”
The two women were also taken aback, and they put down their work and followed the man to the lake to look at the black thing: it was indeed a man, a man facing the sky. When the man got closer, they noticed that the man still had a yellow Labrador on his arm.
It was the first time they had seen a dead person since the whole world had changed.
Without much hesitation, the man jumped into the water and stood in the shallow waters of the shore, carefully pulled him to his side by hanging the man's right foot with a metal net pocket for fishing, and then dragged the man and the Labrador to shore with the help of the young woman.
The young woman, who seemed to have some medical background, reached out and felt the man's pulse, and found that the man's pulse was weak, but it was still there, and he was not dead. She didn't care about the difference between men and women at this time, and she began to give artificial respiration to men.
After a few strokes, the man suddenly opened his eyes and saw a woman who was about to give him artificial respiration. The woman was stunned, and the man immediately couldn't help the physical reaction in his body, coughed a few times and spit out a few mouthfuls of muddy water.
Immediately after the man finished coughing, he shouted, "Run, don't want to die, run." "I took the lead and ran out more than 5 meters away with a rolling belt.
The other three had already begun to retreat away from the man when the man was coughing, and after hearing the man's shouting, they could run as far as they could, until they ran back to the car before stopping.
This man and that Labrador are naturally Chen Ming and Mango. Chen Ming, who was holding the mango in the air, had fallen into a coma when he fell into the water, and could only use his last strength to hold on to the mango, and then completely lost consciousness.
Chen Ming and Mango were taken all the way eastward by the Yangtze River, and they should have continued eastward, but for some reason they were washed up in Yunmengze, otherwise if they had been in the river, it was estimated that Chen Ming would have died sooner or later.
Chen Ming watched the red eyes that appeared because of his coughing and talking disappear, and then he lay on the ground weakly and looked at the three people who had saved him.
The older man clumsily signed out: "Wife, daughter, this person is alive, right?" How can he speak? Isn't it said on the Internet that you will die if you speak? ”
The young woman shook her head calmly and said in extremely skilful sign language: "I don't know, maybe there is something we don't know." ”
Chen Ming looked at the three of them, and then at Mango. He struggled to get up, dragged his injured left leg to Mango's side, and held Mango in his arms to examine it carefully.
Thankfully, Mango is still angry.
Chen Ming carefully placed the mango on the ground, he turned to look at the three of them, "Thank you for saving me, if you don't mind if you can give me some food." For Chen Ming, as long as there is enough food, it is a matter of time before his injuries recover.
The family of three looked at each other, and the elderly father brought some bread, biscuits, milk, etc. from the car to Chen Ming.
Under the shocked gaze of the three people, Chen Ming ate the food of the three people in one go, and then said to the three people: "Can you still help me find a few sticks, my left leg is broken and needs to be fixed." ”
At this time, Chen Ming did not look threatening on the outside, and the young daughter stepped forward and said calmly, "I am a nurse, I have learned this, I will help you." ”
With the help of the nurse, Chen Ming fixed his left calf with a branch, and after Chen Ming thanked him again, he explained to the three of them, "My name is Chen Ming, and I fell into the Yangtze River in a car accident on the bridge upstream. ”
The old father was kind to the people who were still alive, and after hearing what happened to Chen Ming, he said kindly: "It's all right, we are about to eat, I don't know if you can still eat?" ”
Chen Ming nodded, at this time he was like a glutton, as if he would never be able to eat, and he only felt empty in his stomach.
The old father beckoned his wife and daughter to cook, and he helped Chen Ming to sit down at the table, dried his body with a face towel on the mango report car, and gave Chen Ming a set of his own clothes to change into, and then began to exchange information with Chen Ming.
Chen Ming briefly explained his situation, of course, covering up the ability and combat part.
The situation of a family of four is much simpler. The old father's name is Wei Hao, and he is a small businessman in Baling City, who does some miscellaneous business. 's mother's name is Li Jiajia, a typical housewife, who is at home every day. The unsmiling daughter is named Wei Yu, a recent nurse who is still looking for a job. That little boy is their old son, Wei Xiao, and he is still naughty and mischievous every day.
Wei Hao was embarrassed to tell Chen Ming: He was deceived in business some time ago, all the savings in the family were emptied, his wife and children were angry with him, and the family was cold every day. But blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and it happened that this cold war made the three people who were at home at the time of the incident silent, and the youngest son was also sleeping. By the time the daughter received the message online, the family survived.
As for this sign language, my daughter learned it all when she was volunteering, otherwise she wouldn't know how to communicate now.
Wei Hao finally asked embarrassedly: "Is there a question I don't know whether to ask or not?" ”
Chen Ming nodded.
Wei Hao asked curiously, "Why don't you die after you speak?" ”
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Ming decided to tell the truth, "Anyone who runs 4 meters away within 5 seconds after speaking out will not die, so I just told you to run quickly." If you run slower, then the gods will not be able to save you. ”
Wei Hao nodded suddenly in realization.
At this time, Li Jiajia had already put the prepared fish soup and bread on the table, and Wei Yu also brought his naughty brother Wei Xiao to sit down to eat.
After a wordless lunch, Chen Ming squatted on the side of the car and tried to feed some fish soup to the mangoes. During this period, Mango woke up once, ate some prickly fish meat with the help of Chen Ming, licked some fish soup with his tongue, and fell into a coma again.
Chen Ming looked at the unconscious mango, his expression was gloomy, and his eyes were moist. He clenched his hands, if Mango died like this, then he would definitely make Zhao Sha pay the price.
Suddenly, Chen Ming felt someone patting him on the shoulder, and turned his head to see that Wei Hao's family of four was looking at him. Wei Hao said with a smile: "We are out to let off the wind today, and we live with a group of people in a nearby mountain villa. You can go back with us, and we can take care of everyone living together. There is a doctor at the lodge who can show you your legs. Maybe there's a veterinarian who can help you keep an eye on your pet. ”
Chen Ming was overjoyed when he heard this, and he nodded, if there was a veterinarian who could treat mangoes, it would be great.
