Chapter 59: Stand still
With the advent of noon, there seems to be a little warm smell in the air, and it is no longer cold.
Xie Ling held two big roasted sweet potatoes in his hands, thought about it, and handed one to Shen Qiuyuan, "Taste it, it's very delicious." ”
"What is this?" Shen Qiuyuan looked at the black thing in Xie Ling's hand.
Xie Ling rolled her eyes at the sky, this is really the most sad thing she has encountered in her life, the most beautiful taste of roasted sweet potatoes in winter, there are still two people who don't know.
"This one is poisonous, you better not eat it." After saying that, he took back the sweet potato in his hand and ate it while pulling the skin.
"You eat slowly." Shen Qiuyuan looked at Xie Ling, who was gobbling up, and frowned, he really didn't know where this black and dirty thing was good, and he couldn't care if he ate dirty all over his face.
"Where are we going?" Xie Ling asked.
"Don't you know? There will be a contest at this Duobao Festival, and the winner will have a prize? Shen Qiuyuan pretended to be mysterious and said, "How can such an interesting thing not be fun?" ”
"What kind of prize?" Xie Ling shook the dust in his hand and said.
"The prize is not important, but it is only a few hundred taels of silver and a piece of broken paper, but the person who presented the award is the county order of Yong'an City, which has been in the limelight recently, and I heard that many women in Yong'an City are deliberately sighing just to take a look!" Shen Qiuyuan said with a smile, inexplicably adding an accent to the words of the Yong'an City County Order.
Xie Ling said silently in his heart, what does it matter to me. Even if it was a few hundred taels of silver, it was not mine.
"Aren't you going?" Shen Qiuyuan saw that Xie Ling was silent and continued to ask.
"Go, even if I can't get those silver, at least I can see how much a few hundred taels of silver is? Can't you have never eaten pork and never seen a pig run? Xie Ling took a big bite of the sweet potato and said hatefully.
Shen Qiuyuan chuckled, the woman's duplicity was the most normal. Even if you think about it in your heart, you have to make a big turn.
Xie Ling walked out a few steps, looked back and saw that he hadn't moved, and called out twice.
Shen Qiuyuan followed up at this time, "By the way, you just saw something, scared like that." Looking at your usual style, you don't look like you're afraid of those skinny people? ”
Xie Ling's eyes dodged for a moment, and then he smirked and patted him on the shoulder, "You said it, what can I be afraid of." But I just think it's a bit cruel to skin animals and put them on their own bodies. By the way, you don't want to wear it in the future. Xie Ling bit his lip, admiring his nonsense more and more in his heart.
Shen Qiuyuan raised his head and looked at Xie Ling, who was talking nonsense like this, in fact, he understood in his heart, but he was still attracted to her like this!
Maybe it's just, just because it's too similar!
By the time the two men arrived at the scene, the game had already begun. The side was crowded with people, and even some people joined in the fun when they didn't sell anything.
It was so crowded that I almost couldn't even see the sky.
In fact, this competition is to make a name for the goods of this big gold country, and by the way, to have fun with those merchants who buy and sell all day long.
Those prizes, as Shen Qiuyuan said, these businessmen don't care at all. All they did was to get a contract that could be bought and sold within a year.
This Dajin country has a large population, and many things are probably not enough if you just rely on your own domestic things.
There are several types of competitions, including food, martial arts, beauty, and horseback riding, but if you think of a competition, there is nothing that is not available here.
The food category is all local specialties to participate in the competition, Wangwen Shengyi is to sell food, martial arts is to sell weapons, horseback riding is to sell horses, Bimei is to sell clothes, there are more people in the Western Regions, and the special clothes over there will always make people can't help but buy them, even if they don't wear them, they have to keep them.
Xie Ling glanced around, and there was no trace of Gu Changqing in the crowd at all, even if he was a little expectant in his heart, he knew that it was hopeless when he looked at the situation.
simply watched the game honestly with Shen Qiuyuan, several scenes were boring, watching the beauty bar couldn't arouse her interest, watching the horse riding bar was too tiring, watching the competition was too dangerous, Xie Ling squeezed for a long time to squeeze in front of the delicacy.
If you want to say that the world is big, the only thing that cannot be lived up to is it.
At that time, there were only two people left in the game, and the rest of them all fell if they couldn't eat, the person in front of Xie Ling was very strong, he looked like five big and three thick, he played well at the beginning, but he was already weak in follow-up if he persevered.
Xie Ling really couldn't stand it, and couldn't help but step forward and pat him on the shoulder, "Big brother, come on, there are so many?" ”
The man who could have eaten was slapped by Xie Ling like this, and ran directly to the side and vomited. At the same time, an exclamation came from the side.
"Someone jumped into the lake? Come on, huh? A shout interrupted everyone's thoughts in this grand event, who wouldn't think of such a happy moment?
Xie Ling thought in his heart, wouldn't the lake freeze on such a cold day?
Xie Ling squeezed through the crowd and looked over, and it turned out that the lake outside Yong'an City was really not frozen. She ran over, and standing on the edge of the lake, she could see the woman in the lake struggling, the figure was familiar, she recognized, it was the strange woman!
And a few people standing on the shore pointed to the people in the lake one by one, some laughed, some watched the excitement, and some shook their heads and said that they didn't know how to water!
Xie Ling didn't think much about it, took off his shoes, and jumped directly towards the lake.
The original location was chosen by the lake because the terrain was flat, and no one thought that anyone would choose to commit suicide at this point in time.
Gu Changqing, who had been wandering in the crowd, immediately ran out when he heard the voice, not saying what would happen to him after he told his life, he couldn't watch others ignore his own life.
He crossed the crowd and saw the person in the river at first sight, and Xie Ling, who was standing by the lake and was eager to jump down to save people.
He didn't think about it, grabbed Xie Ling at that moment, and said undoubtedly, "Stand still." ”
Then, quickly jump down to save someone!
The courage in his heart to save people at that moment seemed to be suddenly drained at this moment, Xie Ling looked at the two people in the water, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
When I was a child, I stayed at the beach with my master for two years, and once I almost drowned in the sea, and then I didn't go into the water again except for taking a bath, but seeing the woman's strength struggling became smaller and smaller, she couldn't watch, but if she really got into the water, she really wasn't sure if she and that person could both come up alive.
Gu Changqing's words were like thunder that fell like a thunderbolt, waking her up.
Her hand was on a small tree by the lake, and she leaned limply on it.
Gu Changqing's speed was very fast, and when his hand grabbed that person, both Xie Ling and those who were watching the excitement just now let out a long sigh.
"Quick, pull them up."
"Quick, get hot water ready."
"Bring me a towel."
A crowd shouted one after another.
Gu Changqing pulled the woman ashore and put it flat on the ground, then shouted loudly, "Come on, cage fire." ”
"Never." An old man walked up from the crowd and said, "This drowning man will not be able to be saved if he is immediately roasted with fire, and the fire will force the cold air inside." Although the water of this lake does not freeze all year round, the cold accumulated in it cannot be ignored. ”
Gu Changqing waved his hand when he heard this, telling Jiancheng that there was no need for a cage fire, so he asked, "Will you treat this drowning man?" ”
The old man nodded, "I can't say that I have the ability, but I can give it a try." ”
Half an hour later, the drowning woman slowly woke up, and Gu Changqing's heart finally let go, "Life is your own, if you lose it, you will never come back." ”
The woman bowed her head and remained silent.
Xie Ling was still standing in the same position just now, Shen Qiuyuan beside her, "What, are you sad that you didn't become a hero?" ”
Xie Ling shook his head, "You said that if I hadn't hesitated for a moment just now, would it have been possible for me to save that woman." ”
Shen Qiuyuan smiled helplessly, "If you go down, it is estimated that there will be two people to save you, and one person can't be dragged." ”
