Chapter 35 Tales along the River I
The life of the Grim Reaper is extremely boring.
In addition to harvesting souls, checking the book of life and death, and filling out the reincarnation form every day, Xuzi's biggest hobby is to look at the endless fields outside the capital of the underworld.
The underworld, in fact, is not really underground, but in another dimensional space, parallel to the human world. It's a huge metropolis, so big that Void Purple doesn't know what every ancient building does.
Because she is just a god of death, the lowest level function in the underworld.
The sky in the world of the underworld is black, while the ground is pure white, and the light source shines from the bottom up, making the scene strange and eerie.
Around the huge city, there is a circle of boundless fields, and Xuzi has never been to the end of this field.
The fields were full of blood-colored reeds. As far as the eye could see, the dark red stems stood upright, and the reeds fell heavily in one direction. There is no wind in the underworld, and the blood-colored reeds will not sway in the wind, so there will be no wild fun.
Aside from their color, blood-colored reeds are no different from those found in the human world. The flowers, stems, leaves, and roots of the blood-colored reed are all blood-red.
Scarlet reeds need souls to irrigate.
When Xuzi first learned about this fact, he was startled. Hades ordered that the souls that could not be washed away from the eighteen layers of hell be shattered, and forcibly infiltrated into the white soil to nourish the growth of blood-colored reeds.
When the reeds are in full bloom, there will be punished soul coolies who will take away the reeds here, process and extract them, and turn them into blood-colored pills.
Each Reaper and Enforcer only needs to absorb one reed pill per month to obtain the energy to sustain their existence for an entire month.
Xuzi quickly learned this truth. The energy needed for the Grim Reaper to exist comes from the souls that have been crushed.
The reason is very simple, Xuzi was a human before he died. Those souls were human beings before they were taken away and shattered.
It's a game of personal cannibalism.
Xu Zi received her own blood-colored reed pill today, she knew how disgusting this thing was, but in order to maintain her existence, she could only look at this endless blood-colored reed field, watch those evil souls being crushed by the law enforcers, and forcibly pressed into the white soil, crushed the pill in her palm, and then absorbed it all.
"If the king pigeon knew that the Grim Reaper actually needed to maintain his existence in this way, he would think I would be disgusted. Xuzi sighed, "Why do I think of him again?
Xuzi shook his head, glanced at his watch, picked up the umbrella on the ground, and was about to get to work.
At the same time, Wang Ge was driving an ambulance speeding on the edge of the Xiangjiang River, and more than 300 meters away, he could reach the scene of the accident.
Eight minutes ago, he received a request to get out of the car, a high school girl was on an outing by the river and accidentally fell into the water, and it was one of her male classmates who called the police.
Just kidding, today is a weekday, and high school students are not in school in the afternoon, but they go to the Xiangjiang River for an outing?
Wang Ge looked at him and smiled when he received Liu Ya, knowing that this matter must not be simple, but since something happened to the person, he had to hurry out of the car.
Wang Ge parked the ambulance on the side of the road in the middle of the Xiangjiang River, Wang Ge turned on the double flash, and wanted to walk a distance to the Xiangjiang River, so he could only walk, all of them were steps, he and Liu Ya did not take the cart, only took the stretcher down, and hurriedly ran to the Xiangjiang River. This place is relatively remote, there is no light at night, generally people who come to the riverside to play will not go here, but the little couple who is in love likes to come here, and it is called looking for a secluded place in the lively city.
No, the king pigeon stepped on a used sleeve in the grass, the soles of his feet slipped, and he had to take care of the stretcher in his hand, and almost fell.
"Xiao Wang, you trampled other people's sons to death. Liu Ya looked at the embarrassment of the king pigeon and smiled.
"It's fresh!" The king pigeon spat twice in disgust and continued on his way.
This girl is also lucky, she was found by the boat of the Xiangjiang River rescue team that was patrolling as soon as she fell into the water, and after tossing for more than eight minutes, she was actually fished up and sent to the shore.
When Wang Ge and Liu Ya ran panting to the grass on the bank of the Xiangjiang River, there were already rescue team members performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the girl.
The girl's male classmate was pale with fright, trembling and not daring to move, and the rescue team asked the girl how she fell, but he couldn't tell.
Liu Ya hurriedly ran over with the first aid kit and squatted down beside the girl. The rescue team was very professional, and opened the girl's breathing channel when performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, Liu Ya signaled the middle-aged team member to rest for a while, and he and the nurse continued to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
The rescue team member who was doing chest compressions sat on the ground as soon as he saw the doctor coming, as if he wanted to see the savior, gasping for breath, beads of sweat rolling down his head, and wiping his head with his sleeve.
Anyone who has ever sat on chest compressions knows how tiring it can be.
The girl has not been in the water for a long time, and now is still the best time to rescue, and there is hope!
Wang Ge observed the surroundings, between the meadow by the river and the river, there is still a half-person high cement step, if people are not stepping on this step to walk, it is estimated that it will not be too easy to fall into the river, Wang Ge is thinking, his eyes look casually, he actually found a figure with a long-handled umbrella in the center of the Xiangjiang River.
What are you kidding, the Grim Reaper is playing such a high-profile game, appearing in the center of the Xiangjiang River out of thin air, and floating on the surface of the river, this is too fucking good at playing.
"Doctor Rabbit, do you want to be sent to the hospital?" asked Wang Ge.
Death has appeared, and the girl's life is in danger. Things were much more important than he thought.
Liu Ya shook his head, now for the girl, cardiopulmonary resuscitation is very important, it is best to let the girl who fell into the water to recover her breathing and heartbeat, cough up the river water in her lungs, and send it to the hospital, although it may save her life, but the body's trachea and brain are deprived of oxygen for too long, which may leave serious sequelae.
There are no carts in this place, and if you want to send people away, you have to rely on stretchers. If you use a stretcher, you can't do CPR.
Liu Ya persevered, and finally when she performed the eighth set of chest compressions, the girl regained consciousness, coughed violently, and coughed out a lot of river water sideways.
The nurse patted the girl's back and was surprised to find that there was a wound on the back of the girl's neck, which was slowly bleeding out.
The wound was deep, but not too long, and the flesh was turning outward, so it wasn't life-threatening, but the stitches were sure to leave a scar.
"Dr. Liu. The nurse shouted and motioned for Liu Ya to come over and take a look.
Liu Ya responded, glanced at the wound, and then glanced at the male high school student suspiciously.
"Girl, don't be afraid, do you remember how the wound on the back of your neck was formed? Was it caused before falling into the water?" asked Liu Ya softly while bandaging the wound briefly.
The girl was frightened and speechless, but shook her head.
Liu Ya swallowed, did he remember or didn't he remember this answer?
He could only call the rescue team over and tell them to take a good look at the male high school student and not let him run away.
The girl wanted to stand up on her own, but Liu Ya strongly objected and forcibly pressed her on a stretcher.
"King pigeon, what are you stunned about! Carry the man away. Liu Ya shouted.
At this time, the king pigeon was still looking at the river in a daze.
The previous Grim Reaper left with an umbrella the moment the girl woke up, and the numbers on the Soul Suppression card had changed, but what about the new Grim Reaper?
There are three rescue team members on the shore, a girl who has fallen into the water but has been rescued, a trembling male high school student, as well as a doctor Liu Ya and a nurse.
Including the king pigeon himself, there must be people in this group whose lives are still in danger.
Suddenly, the male high school student turned around and wanted to leave, and there was a member of the Xiangjiang rescue team standing next to him, wanting to reach out to stop him, but he didn't expect the male high school student to take out a switchblade from his pocket and stab the team member several times in full view.
The team member was already in his forties, and his reaction speed was naturally not as fast as that of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old child, and a huge pain came from his abdomen, but he still took the opportunity to grab the high school student's hand.
"Knife! The wound on the back of the neck! This girl didn't stumble on her own!" Liu Ya instantly understood.
"!" scolded the king, the new Grim Reaper had come because of this rescuer.
He hurriedly stepped forward to help, kicked the boy to the ground, and the other two rescue team members also came to their senses, stepped forward and held down the male high school student, found a rope to tie him up, beat him fat, and then called the police.
The high school boy screamed as he was beaten. "Lao Tzu is under the age of eighteen, what can you do to me? Pan Qian, if you can obey me, we don't have to toss like this. I can't sentence you to death, and when I get out of prison, I'll you!"
"Fuck little brute!" Liu Ya hated the root of his teeth, and came to the injured team member with a first-aid kit, calmly and quickly disposing of the wound, his face became more and more ugly.
"Doctor, you must save him!" He just jumped into the water and fished up this female doll...... "The other two rescue team members didn't expect this to happen, and they couldn't do anything to the male high school student, I just hope that Liu Ya's medical skills are superb and he can save his companion."
"If you stab someone in front of the doctor, if you can't save it, don't be an emergency doctor if you say it! Girl, can you leave by yourself?" Liu Ya said while busy working.
The girl's face recovered a little and nodded.
"Little grandson, hold her a little and get into the car together. Wang Ge, the wounded are on a stretcher and go back to the hospital!" Liu Ya commanded.
In the emergency scene, the doctor's rights are maximum. The king pigeon and the nurse nodded at the same time, and proceeded.
