Chapter 63 The Fisherman of the Village of Kehavli
When Chen Xi rushed to the top of the building, Heyman's ice bridge was almost finished. As he said, there were fewer sirens in the sky, and a siren flew over their heads, but they didn't notice them at the bottom of the building.
"Mr. Heyman, you know so much that you even know the habits of these sirens, and we were not taught them in our school. Chen Xi said with a smile.
"I just happened to see these things in an old book"
"Can you tell me the title of the book?"
"The Fisherman of the Village of Kehafli"
"Sounds like the name of a novel, but I haven't heard of it, so who is the author?"
"You guessed it, it's indeed a novel, and the author's name is Sanna, and it's my wife. You can't have seen this book because she died before she could finish it. "Heyman had been calm in both speech and demeanor before, and only when he said the name Sanna did he show a noticeable fluctuation.
"I'm sorry. Although he was a little curious about how Haiman's wife could understand the siren's habits, since someone else's wife had died, Chen Xi was embarrassed to ask again. Touching someone's wound without touching it is different from actively rubbing salt into someone's wound.
"It's okay, Sanna has been dead for a long time and I'm not that sad anymore. By the way, Mr. Chen, you should have a good relationship with Mr. Rodriguez's brother. Although your strength is good, in this dangerous environment, you are specially here to save your friend's younger brother, this is a very important friend. ”
"Yes, in order to save someone who was important to me, Jonathan accompanied me to a very dangerous place. We supported each other in that dangerous place and finally came back alive. He and I are friends who have experienced life and death. We Chinese have an idiom called life and death friends, which refers to such friends. Chen Xi replied.
Some people say that the most ironclad relationship between men is: they have been through the window together, they have carried a gun together, they have opened their crotch together, they have drunk together, they have prostituted together, and they have been in prison together. When he needed help the most, Gaston and Jonathan, who accompanied him into the underworld and lived and died together, were not ordinary friends, but his brothers.
When Philip on the side heard this, he thought of Chen Xi telling him that his brother paid the price that he couldn't afford, and he felt a little humiliated when he heard it. He wasn't as lavish as his brother, and he still had a lot of savings. But now that he understands it, he really can't pay the price his brother paid.
He was a little confused again, he couldn't figure out who his brother Jonathan was, even a guy like Chen Xi who looked like Superman to him would need his brother's help, was his brother really a playboy? He now understood that his father handed over the Rodriguez family to his brother maybe not because his father was partial, but because it was a little inconvenient to talk to him.
"The bridge is repaired, let's go. Excuse me, Mr. Chen, you go ahead, in case a monster suddenly appears in the opposite building and attacks us through the ice bridge, I will be behind the palace. clapped his hands and said.
"No problem. Chen Xi was the first to step on the ice bridge. The people behind lined up to keep up with him.
The group walked on the bridge made of ice, and the road was a little slippery. They are now at an altitude of 200 meters, and if they fall down, even if the sea water below is tens of meters deep, the chances of survival are not very good.
The force of impact on a stationary water surface is related to the contact area and the speed of the fall, and the resistance per square meter is almost the same as that on land at a drop height of more than 50-70 meters. Studies have proven that when a person falls from a height of 100 meters, the final speed of entry into the water is 159 km / h, and at this speed, it can be said that the chance of survival is almost zero.
Chen Xi walked on the ice with Yuan Yanshu in his arms, he used to be afraid of heights, and he would scream on a roller coaster. Now he is not afraid, he is not afraid of several times higher than this height, after all, he can fly, and falling from a high altitude is not too much of a threat to him. He didn't think too much about it, he still hugged Yuan Yanshu in the previous posture, his eyes looked ahead, but he didn't know that the two blush on the white face of the girl in his arms were as white as snow, and the roots of his ears were dyed red, and the crimson ran down his neck, over the skin on his back, and down to his ankles.
There are not many truths in this world, and a woman's blush is worth a long confession. Mr. Lao She's words suddenly appeared in Yuan Yanshu's mind.
Phew, how could I like this guy, it's all because this guy wants to hold me in this strange position, there are so many people around, I'm just a little shy. She thought.
However, she forgot that she was not prone to blush since she was a child.
When Yuan Yanshu was in elementary school, there was a New Year's Day party, and the host of the program arranged by the school before caught a cold, his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't make a sound.
This made Mr. Guo, who was in charge of the party, anxious, and at this time, Yuan Yanshu, who had just finished going to the bathroom, was about to go to the audience when she accidentally broke out and was about to go to the audience. When she walked in, she saw that the performers and staff at the back of the stage were all staring at her, she stared at everyone for three seconds with her big round eyes, and everyone also looked at this cute confused girl, the originally noisy rehearsal room could hear everyone's breathing quietly, Xiao Yuan Yanshu came back to her senses and found that she had made a mistake, and quickly apologized, and then everyone in the rehearsal room laughed.
Teacher Guo looked at this confused little girl who had gone to the wrong classroom, with delicate facial features and a crisp voice. And she has a good attitude, even if so many people laugh at her, she doesn't blush, in line with the idea of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, he wants this little girl to be the host, anyway, the current situation can't get worse.
But Teacher Guo didn't know that Yuan Yanshu would not blush when she was shy, angry, or crying. Her mother thought she was anemic, but when she went to the hospital for an examination, she found that she was not anemic. But in the future, their family still often eats pork liver, and her mother always thinks that it is strange that her daughter will not blush.
Her father didn't think it was a problem, and said that his daughter was Snow White, and gave her the nickname Cher.
In this way, Yuan Yanshu became the host of the New Year's Day party, and after reading the script for ten minutes, she went on stage.
This is the first time that Xiao Yuan Yanshu has faced so many people, and she has not memorized much at all after reading the manuscript a few times, looking at the black crowd below, her little head is blank, and she forgot the words.
Then her father suddenly stood up and gave her an encouraging look, and she tried to recall the sporadic memories and made up a paragraph on the spot.
After the party, Teacher Guo was very happy and praised her for saying that although she was on stage for the first time, she had no stage fright, her expression was very natural, the typhoon was very good, and she was a good seedling to be a host.
In the days to come, she barely blushed a few times, and the number of times added up was not as much as today's day.
looked at the girl with a red face, wrapped around Chen Xi's neck, and her eyes were erratic, and laughed.
"Please pause. shouted to the crowd on the ice bridge.
Everyone stopped and looked at him, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Guys, I'm running out of it, maybe there are too many people, more than the ice bridge can handle," shouted with an anxious face.
When the people around heard what he said, they became flustered and began to run desperately in the direction of the bridge. And as they ran, more and more cracks appeared in the ice.
"Everybody don't move, the bridge is about to collapse, and I thought of a way to save everyone if someone is willing to sacrifice themselves and jump off the bridge to lighten their load. ”
The people on the bridge, you look at me, I look at you, but no one wants to take the initiative to jump, jumping from such a high place, ten deaths.
Kota Shinohara's anxious face looked at, and he knew that guy was acting. Earlier, when he said that he wanted to build an ice bridge on the roof of a tall building, the policeman felt that there was a problem. If you just avoid the attacks of those monsters in the sea, you don't have to go to the top floor at all, and you can build ice bridges between the lower floors. He gave Chen Xi a vague look at that time, Chen Xi turned around and smiled at him, and then agreed to's request.
"It seems that everyone is not willing to sacrifice themselves, then it is up to me to appoint, Mr. Chen, throw the girl in your arms down, and all of us will be able to cross the bridge safely, what do you think?" The panic on Haiman's face disappeared, and he pointed to Yuan Yanshu who was holding Chen Xi with a smile and said.
"What do you mean, Mr. Heyman?" asked Philip, puzzled. Now even he sensed that something was wrong, there were so many people on this bridge, but Heyman wanted to make an innocent injured girl jump. Unless they had a holiday before, it should be the first time they have met when they see each other before.
"Now that you are all on my bridge, I said that whoever will die will die, Mr. Chen, if you insist on refusing my request, this bridge will really collapse. ”
After finished speaking, a few more cracks appeared on the bridge deck, making a creaking sound of ice breaking, and there was an exclamation from the crowd, and now everyone understood that this man named Heyman was doing the trick.
"Mr. Heyman, can you tell me why? Why me?" asked Yuan Yanshu, looking at Heyman.
"I just have a feeling that if you die, this guy might have an interesting look on his face. Just like the despair, chagrin, powerless pain on his face because of the loss of a girl on the shores of Lower Bay. This look, so familiar, reminds me of something, and I can't help myself from wanting to watch it again. 's hand pointed at Chen Xi, his face began to distort, and his eyes were full of gloom, cruelty, and madness.
"Are you sick? If you are sick, go to the doctor, don't come out and harm people. Also, what you said just now annoyed me, I'm super upset now. Chen Xi looked at and said.
"Hurry, hurry, throw that girl down, I want to see your lovely desperate and painful face, that dead look, I want to see it again. I'll count three times, and if you don't throw this girl down, everyone on this ice bridge will die. ”
"It doesn't matter to the others, it's still a problem for Gasstone's brother to die. Chen Xi's gaze scanned the faces of everyone present.
"Three"
"You're such a bastard. Chen Xi sighed, and then threw Yuan Yanshu down.
A stream of water crashed into Yuan Yanshu's body, knocking her into the distance, and then continued to fall.
Another stream of water slammed into Philip's body, knocking him in the other direction.
"Now, choose, I know you can fly, but you can only save one person, is it that girl, or is it your best friend's brother? ”
Chen Xi gave a middle finger and jumped off the bridge.
