412.Chapter 412 (37)
Seeing this, I yelled at the stammer, "Quick, find something to catch that corpse!" ā
As I spoke, I hugged Wen Xue tightly with one hand and protected her, and with the other hand I didn't dare to let go of the stone, because although the suction under my feet was smaller, it was still enough to suck the two of us in.
In desperation, I had to turn my head away from the corpse as much as possible, and then bend down slightly, curling up my whole body. Since then, my whole body has weighed a lot, and with the warm snow in my arms, my whole arm is almost broken.
However, this is the only way to avoid the current situation, so that the corpse will not be sucked by the culvert, and second, it will not cause fatal injury to me.
The stammering stammered to hear my words, without saying a word, and jumped in my direction, he was a martial artist, much stronger than me in terms of physical strength, but he came to me with such a slight leap, grabbed the riverside with one hand, and the other unicorn arm went up to the corpse.
Some things seem to be predestined in the dark, even if we are well prepared. However, the direction in which the corpse fell was beyond all of us' expectations, and it fell from above in a strange arc, as if someone had pushed the corpse past me.
The corpse was in the process of falling, I don't know what was going on, her head suddenly moved in my direction, a pair of empty eyes looked at me, it was this moment, I saw the corpse's face clearly, my heart was shocked, that face was a bit like the female beggar in the Horse Walking Village.
What's the matter, isn't the beggar in the Horse Walking Village? How did it end up here?
Just as I was stunned, the corpse 'poofed' and floated down the water in the culvert. Immediately after, the river formed a whirlpool, followed by the corpse, and in less than ten seconds, the river that originally reached the lips was only less than a foot deep, trickling.
I was stunned when I watched this scene, what was going on with this TM, and I was about to ask a stammer, when there was a sharp pain in my hand, and as soon as I let go, my whole body fell into the river.
The distance between me and the river is only about thirty centimeters, but, the weight of the two people combined, it still hurts to hit the river, I just feel that the bones are about to fall apart, especially the Wen Xue, I am afraid that she will not be able to withstand such a smash, and her body will be pressed on me.
Fortunately, there is still some water left in the river, otherwise it would have cost me half my life.
"Brother Jiu, are you okay?" I stammered, jumped down, and moved the warm snow away from me.
"It's fine!" I stopped and sniffed at Wen Xue, very weak, without saying a word, I blew a few breaths into her mouth, and my hands pressed a few times on her chest.
After doing this about a dozen times, Wen Xue suddenly coughed and opened her eyes slightly.
As soon as my heart was relieved, this woman was so hard, and I was about to withdraw my hand from her chest, when I felt a burning pain on my face, and when I opened my eyes, Made, that woman actually slapped me.
, since I was a child, I haven't been slapped by a woman, and today, I live... was actually instigated by this woman, and it was especially instigated when I saved her.
It's really a dog, my anger came out, grabbed her hand, and said angrily: "You TM neurosis!" ā
"Who told you to take advantage of my coma to touch... Touch... Iā" She coughed sharply and said weakly, but her eyes were so sharp that I panicked at the sight.
Made, count me unlucky, I don't plan to pay attention to her anymore, I have already repaid her previous 'don't jump' kindness, and it doesn't matter to me whether she is dead or alive next.
At that moment, I stood up, rubbed my cheeks, walked to the mouth of the culvert, and glanced inside, it was pitch black, I couldn't see anything, and I could faintly hear the sound of rushing water.
"Stammer!" I shouted at the stammerer and asked three questions in a row, "Why is the river gone?" How do you know I'm here? Is something happening in the village? ā
He told me that when the coffin in the village moved, he and the senior man came to the tomb to look for me, and when they saw that I was not in the tomb, they followed my footsteps and found it, and when they saw that my shoes were off the ground, they estimated that I had fallen into the river.
He was going to jump into the river to find me, but fortunately, the old man was well-informed, so he said that he would go to the water source of the small river, the reservoir, and block the place where the reservoir was discharged, which caused the water level in the river to drop rapidly.
After listening to his words, I was stunned for a moment, no wonder the water level was inexplicably low before, and the suction of the culvert was also less.
"How's the coffin now?" I asked the stammer.
He shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's us who are suspicious, it's a black cat squatting under the coffin and shaking the stool." ā
After speaking, he touched his head and continued: "Brother Jiu, the corpse was sucked into the culvert, what should I do now?" Looking for it or not? ā
"You must find it, you must not let the body of the deceased be immersed in water!" I answered immediately.
"But... Can... But the corpse has been sucked in, this culvert is bottomless, and there must be a lot of stagnant water underneath, how to find it? He stammered and said.
I thought about it for a while, and the words of the stammering are not unreasonable, this culvert is very deep, where is its end, I don't have a bottom in my heart, in case it leads directly to the Yin River underground, let alone looking for the body, I'm afraid, we won't be able to come back if we go down.
For a while, I didn't know what to do, but I saw the corpse sucked into the culvert, and if I let it corrode in the culvert like this, my conscience would not be able to get over it. Not to mention that the first principle of our Eight Immortals is to let the deceased go with peace of mind.
"Brother Jiu, what should I do?" Seeing that I didn't speak, the stammerer pushed me.
"You carry the woman back first, guard the old king and the little boss, and then I will think of a way!" As I spoke, I pointed at Wen Xue.
As soon as the words fell, Wen Xue 'soared', got up from the ground, and said weakly: "As a staff member of the crematorium, I have the duty to retrieve the body!" ā
With that, she walked up to me, threw me an apologetic look, said sorry, and stood next to me.
I know what she means by sorry, as long as she's not a fool, she knows that she was saving her just now.
According to normal men, it must be a very beautiful thing to have a beautiful woman apologize to themselves, however, I am naturally resentful, so this so-called beautiful thing does not seem so beautiful to me, on the contrary, there is a trace of worry.
I stopped at her and said, "No need to say I'm sorry, it's best to apologize if you go back to the village with them." ā
Her face changed, and she said angrily: "Chen Baxian, what do you mean by this?" How can I, Wen Xue, be the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Don't forget my profession, I respect the dead as much as you do. ā
