Chapter 49: Extraordinarily Long
She didn't expect the flood to be released so early, so she didn't think to buy herself a flashlight to use on the road.
At this time, this flashlight is definitely a rarity and a valuable item.
Being able to put such a thing in her hands without thinking about it, Xiao Yezi held a flashlight, just like holding the kindness of this Dajin village.
Xiao Yezi needs it.
All she did not retreat.
Taking the flashlight, Xiao Yezi bowed to the village chief and his wife to thank him.
Seriously.
Thank you very sincerely.
"Thank you uncle and aunt, thank you for trusting me, I will definitely return the borrowed things with my own hands."
Xiao Yezi took the warmth given to her by the village chief's family, flashlight, and walked all the way out of the village, alone, with the dark morning, walking alone to the Earl River.
The mountain road is difficult to walk after the rain.
The muddy muddy water can make people slippery, coupled with the fact that the vision is not good after dark, Xiao Yezi fell several times along the way, and even broke the skin on his hands.
Xiao Yezi, who has always been timid.
When she held a flashlight and walked on this deserted path with an umbrella.
The first time I found out, it turned out that she could be so brave.
The thought that Xiang Ang might be waiting for her by the river.
Lightning and thunder, she was not afraid.
The chirping of unknown beasts and birds in the mountains, she was also fearless.
She fell, her palms were bleeding, and she couldn't feel any pain.
As long as she thought of Xiang Ang in front, as long as she thought of going to the river earlier and bringing Xiang Ang back earlier, her whole body was suddenly full of courage.
She can be fearless for Xiang Ang.
The road is difficult to walk on a rainy night, Xiao Yezi's speed is much slower than usual, and when the sky finally dawns, he begins to see the road clearly, Xiao Yezi's umbrella is no longer supported, the flashlight is also put away, and he runs forward against the heavy rain all the way.
When she was tired and couldn't run, she stopped and walked slowly, and when she regained her strength, she continued to run.
The longest road Xiao Yezi has run in his life is the road under his feet now.
I didn't feel tired when I walked a few days ago, and I didn't feel far away.
But in this morning, she felt that the road under her feet was extraordinarily long and far.
It's close.
It's close again.
Finally......
When Xiao Yezi stood on a high place, looking at the river that had passed the warning sign, when she saw the river, Xiang Ang was struggling there holding driftwood. Looking at the picture in front of her, it gradually coincided with the picture she saw when she was separated from him at the train station.
Her tears burst out of her eyes.
She's still late.
Xiang Ang had been struggling here for a long time, and he was almost out of strength.
"Xiang Ang!"
Xiao Yezi stood there and shouted loudly to the people on the river.
"You hold me up! As long as you have a breath left, you have to hold me up! I won't let you have anything to do! ”
Xiao Yezi shouted hard, and ran towards the place where she was wearing a life jacket and other things.
On the river.
The river was already flooding his chest.
Xiang Ang finally tried to get closer to the shore, but in the end, it was in vain.
Xiang Ang was desperate.
He opened his eyes and watched the last curtain of rain.
He whispered Xiao Yezi's nickname.
Leaf...... Leaf......
promised her that he would go back to pick her up, but he still had to break his promise.
He tried, and he tried his best to move towards life.
However, there was nothing he could do.
Just when Xiang Ang was about to close his eyes and wait for death, and spend the rest of his time thinking about Xiao Yezi, suddenly, a familiar voice came from his ears.
