Chapter 15: Fearless of life and death

Huo Xinyan took Xu Qiao to the small shop next to the community, bought two boxes of ice cream, and bought some snacks.

Take Xu Qiao to eat by the Minxin River not far away.

The Minxin River, which runs around the city, is gurgling in summer, and has become a good place for nearby residents to escape the heat and enjoy the coolness.

The weeping willows by the river, the bluestone path winds and turns, and there are one or two benches for people to rest in every section.

It was the hottest time of the day, shortly after the afternoon, when the weeping willows by the river were hot and rolled their leaves, and the cicadas were making noise, hurried and irritable.

Naturally, there are not many people hanging out by the river.

Huo Xinyan took Xu Qiao to the river, helped her uncover the ice cream, and whispered to her to take the spoon.

The two of them walked slowly along the shade of the trees while eating.

Huo Xinyan stuffed a mouthful of ice cream into her mouth and turned her head, seeing Xu Qiao stuffing ice cream into her mouth in a small bite, and her little tongue licked the corner of her lower lip, which was a little cute. And she always felt that she hadn't seen Xu Qiao for more than half a year, and Xu Qiao seemed to have changed.

It's just that where has changed? She couldn't say it again.

Xu Qiao seemed to be concentrating on eating ice cream, but Yu Guang knew that Huo Xinyan was secretly looking at her.

Although she knew Huo Xinyan's kindness, it was impossible for her to open her heart, but she had just touched Huo Xinyan's pulse, and she would definitely be able to help her in the future!

"Qiaoqiao, I'm going to be a sophomore after the summer vacation, and I definitely can't come back during the winter vacation. I'll try to come back for the summer vacation. I'll praise more money when the time comes, and I'll take you to the capital to play in the summer vacation. ”

Xu Qiao sighed in her heart, she was still an innocent little girl. It's too easy to think about going out.

Huo Xinyan walked silently for a while, and then spoke leisurely: "Qiaoqiao, I like a boy, but he is too good." A lot of girls like him. What do you think I should do? I feel like he likes me too, but he seems to be nice to every girl. ”

Xu Qiao complained in her heart, what should I do? This is a scumbag like central air conditioning, a girl who can warm the world, what do you want him to do?

Huo Xinyan was melancholy: "After such a long holiday, he hasn't paged me once, and he hasn't called me once." Or maybe I'm being sentimental. ”

Xu Qiao is because of family reasons, or maybe because she didn't meet a man who impressed her. So the relationship has always been blank. She knows that every relationship starts with a long run. It's just that in the end, he finally lost to firewood, rice, oil and salt, and trivial things in life.

And she is a person with a turtle hair, and she can't be sure that she can maintain a long-term relationship with someone. So she doesn't fall in love and doesn't get married. Naturally, there has never been such troubles as Huo Xinyan.

Huo Xinyan only thought that Xu Qiao was the trash can to confide, and smiled helplessly: "I think it may be that I am too cowardly emotionally, sometimes I should be brave." ”

As he spoke, he walked through the curved corridor, and suddenly opened up in front of him, and he could see the stone bridge not far away.

The stone bridge was exposed to the scorching sun, but it was surrounded by many people.

The orange-red fire trucks Xu Qiao saw first, as well as the orange-red figures swaying on the bridge.

Inexplicably a little excited, he walked a few steps quickly and wanted to get closer and watch.

It seems that someone has fallen overboard, and there is a small boat on the river that is responsible for salvage.

Huo Xinyan also stopped and looked over, and sighed: "What's going on again?" Firefighters are really hard. Everything. ”

The river below the stone bridge is deep and overgrown with aquatic weeds.

Firefighters with diving gear dived several times into the bottom of the river at a depth of four meters to find people.

Gu Chengchuan had already changed his clothes, wearing camouflage green short sleeves, and leaned down on the railing to look down.

At noon, three junior high school boys were killed swimming in the area.

So far, only one child's body has been found, and two others may have become entangled in the aquatic weeds at the bottom of the river, or they may have been washed downstream.

The entire river has now been searched in a dragnet pattern.

The parents of the three boys were already crying and fainting on the shore, screaming hoarsely to go to the river to find their children.

The police and firefighters pulled the cordon to persuade them, but the parents who lost their children could not listen to the comfort, they just cried and cried to go down to the river to find the children in person, and at the same time, they were lucky that they did not find the body, maybe they were still alive.

Two firefighters who had dived into the water surfaced and gestured to the shore without noticing.

Gu Chengchuan frowned, his hand on the bluestone railing was clenched tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were exposed. He turned his head and said to the soldier beside him, "Give me the equipment, and I'll go down and have a look." ”

The soldier hesitated: "Squadron leader, you still have wounds ......"

Gu Chengchuan interrupted: "Is there anyone else who is better than me?" Fast! ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took the clothes in the soldier's hand and put them on his body, and put the oxygen cylinder on his back to prepare to enter the water.

Xu Qiao was separated by a long distance, looking at the orange-red figure carrying diving equipment on her back, holding the rope and going down the river along the embankment, her heart couldn't help but shrink tightly, she couldn't see his face, but she inexplicably felt that the person was Gu Chengchuan!

The injury on his back is still so serious, why is it so deadly!

The ice cream in her hand had melted, and the cold soaked into her fingers through the cardboard box, as if the chill had spread down her fingertips to her heart, making her heart curl up and hurt.

Regardless of Huo Xinyan beside him, he hurriedly walked towards the river.

There is a big sign on the river, with white letters on a blue background: The water is four meters deep, no swimming!

Xu Qiao glanced at the sign, feeling cold and uncomfortable, why don't you cherish life so much?

There was still some distance away, and he was stopped by the cordon, and there were people watching the excitement next to him.

Xu Qiao approached the outside of the cordon, clenched the ice cream box in his hand, and looked nervously at the river.

The water ripples on the river surface fluctuate greatly, and the water surface is a little turbid and you can't see the situation under the water.

Clumps of aquatic plants sprung up and drifted away.

Huo Xinyan also followed, looked at Xu Qiao's serious expression, and reached out to hold her hand: "Qiaoqiao, what's wrong with you?" ”

Xu Qiao turned her head to look at Huo Xinyan, and then pointed to the river.

Huo Xinyan was pleasantly surprised to find that Xu Qiao could understand her words, looked at Xu Qiao with some joy, saw that she looked nervous, and planned to talk to her later.

Gu Chengchuan quickly surfaced, gestured to the commander on the shore, and dived under the bridge.

The habitual thinking of all people is that after falling into the water, people will be washed downstream, and even if they are salvage, they should be found in place or downstream.

Gu Chengchuan went upriver and dived into the deepest place under the bridge.

The stone bridge was built for some years, and when the river was cleaned every year, the bottom of the stone bridge was the focus of cleaning. But it is also the weakest point. A huge pit was washed into near the pier, forming a small vortex that was difficult to detect without paying attention.

Gu Chengchuan has been infiltrating for a long time this time, and he hasn't seen him for more than ten minutes.

Xu Qiao was a little anxious, and grabbed Huo Xinyan's hand with her backhand and pressed slightly......
