Chapter Forty-Eight: Sinking to the Bottom
Although the name of coral is coral, it is not watery at all, let alone swimming, and it is not even possible to breathe.
Xie Xunzhu has an average water nature, and he can only ensure that he will not be drowned, and the situation is urgent at this time, and Xie Xunzhu cannot be allowed to hesitate.
With his feet fluttering in the water, he gritted his teeth and swam towards the coral that kept choking.
There were already a lot of onlookers gathered on the bridge, pointing in the direction where the two of them fell into the water, sighing a word or two, but no one was willing to go into the water to help one or two.
Someone recognized Xie Xunzhu, was taken aback, and didn't dare to delay and ran to find someone, this is a major matter of human life, not to mention this person's noble status.
Report as soon as possible, and maybe these magnates will give them some silver.
Xie Xunzhu only felt that he was swimming all over his body, especially his calf, which had begun to throb, and his heart was cold, and he knew that he could no longer soak in the water, and he couldn't say that she and Coral would both explain in this river.
"Coral! Don't move, hold your breath, I'll save you! ”
Coral has no strength, his brain is blank, only the instinct to survive is helping Coral struggle, hearing Xie Xunzhu's voice, he feels more hope, and some regret is churning in his heart.
Why should she struggle with Miss, Miss, they are masters, she is a slave, and it is a blessing to be treated like this by Miss......
"Miss...... Whining...... Help me......"
Xie Xunzhu was a little physically exhausted, seeing that the coral's struggle was getting smaller and smaller, and the river was about to pass above her head, she also felt a little flustered, and her strength was drained by three points.
"Stay awake and don't give up, Sango!"
The elegant and good-looking Luo skirt on his body has become an obstacle for Xie Xunzhu, and it is even heavier when he is full of water, as if he is pulling Xie Xunzhu to go underwater.
Xie Xunzhu kicked his legs, swung his arms, and pulled the head of the coral out of the water, and both of them gasped for breath, exhaling the hard-won air.
Shen Yunyuan and Mu Qingzi saw this scene when they arrived, Mu Qingzi's eyes widened, and he was about to go into the water to salvage the two.
Shen Yunyuan quickly grabbed Mu Qingzi.
"What are you doing! The two of them can't hold on anymore, and if they continue like this, I'm afraid it's ......" Mu Qingzi struggled to pull his arm out of Shen Yunyuan's hand.
Shen Yunyuan's hand holding Mu Qingzi's arm was bruised, and his voice was not normal: "You calm down!" ”
Then he turned his head and shouted to the little guy next to him: "You are fast, hurry up and run to inform Mrs. Xie, tell the truth about the matter, and bring some women with good water characteristics to save people!" Be quick! ”
The little guy didn't dare to delay time, and quickly turned around and left.
Mu Qingzi's eyes were wide open, his face was red, Shen Yunyuan seemed calm, but in fact, his hands and feet were cold, and when he saw Xie Xunzhu struggling in the water, he almost rushed straight down.
"Oh, it's still a young girl, look at the clothes on your body, I'm afraid it's from a rich and noble family, and it's a sin."
"I think it's the master who is embarrassed, and the maid can't stand it and wants to jump into the river, but the two go down together."
There were different opinions, and Shen Yunyuan's reason that he almost ran away from home was pulled back.
Clenched his hands, while stopping Mu Qingzi, he always paid attention to Xie Xunzhu's movements, hoping that Xie Qiao'er would come soon.
Xie Xunzhu himself is generally watery, and at this moment there is a coral hanging on his body, and he can't swim anymore, and he choked on several mouthfuls of water during his struggle, his legs trembled, and his calves hurt even more.
Sango's eyes were closed, and he couldn't speak.
Shen Yunyuan held Mu Qingzi down to the death, not letting him rush down from losing his mind for a while.
Human life is at stake, and temperament is superior, Mu Qingzi actually struggled to break free of Shen Yunyuan's restraints, and he was about to climb down the bridge with both hands.
Shen Yunyuan couldn't, so he rushed up and punched Mu Qingzi: "Calm down!" Are you going to ruin the reputation of both of them!? There was anxiety and anger in his tone.
Mu Qingzi was stunned, and his movements stopped: "Why do you say this?" ”
"They are women, and their clothes are close to their bodies after being soaked in water, and it is inconvenient for men to help, so they can only wait for women who know water to come, in front of the public, you are so anxious to rush up, do you want to force their master and servant to marry you!"
Shen Yunyuan rarely said such a long paragraph, and he was also very angry at the moment.
Mu Qingzi looked at Xie Xunzhu and Coral, who had obviously lost their strength and had begun to sink, and then inspected the lively crowd, his eyes were red, and there was some smell of blood in his mouth, but he could only roar at Shen Yunyuan: "Then what should I do, can I only watch them die!?" ”
"Wait, you can only wait!" Shen Yunyuan looked at Xie Xunzhu deadly.
This river is not very useful when it is horizontal, and it is not deep, more than two meters, but for Xie Xunzhu and Coral, it is enough to extinguish.
"Don't be afraid, my aunt is here! Go down and save people" Before the person arrived, the uncontrollable cry reached the side of the bridge.
Xie Qiao'er got on the bridge with tears in her eyes, urging the mother-in-law next to her to go down, followed by the panting little girl.
The mother-in-law knows the nature of the water, and immediately took two or three people into the water, and rescued Xie Xunzhu and Coral who were about to sink in less than a cup of tea.
At this moment, Zhou Qianrong's mother and daughter caught up with their husbands.
The poor old doctor is still in such a hurry at his age.
Xie Xunzhu was hugged by Xie Qiaoer, wearing a brocade quilt carefully brought by Xie Qiaoer, surrounded by the doctor.
Coral was just pulled by the mother-in-law next to Xie Qiao'er.
Xie Qiao'er's voice choked: "I'm willing to pay thirty yuan, I want to find a nearby place to rest for a while, I don't know who is willing to be accommodating?" ”
Thirty dollars is worth seven days of expenses for ordinary people, and it's just a moment of rest, who still lacks such a house, isn't this money picked up for nothing?
Immediately scramble.
"Go to my house, my house is only a kilometer away from here!"
"You're embarrassed to say it? Come to my house, only 100 meters, just off the bridge! ”
"My house is big and the house is clean, come to my house!"
……
In the midst of the noise, Xie Qiao'er chose the nearest residence and led a group of people into the door.
A group of men were waiting outside, and Xie Qiao'er took the unconscious Xie Xunzhu and the doctor and went straight to the room.
Everyone was busy working around Xie Xunzhu, but Coral was only placed in the firewood room, and a mother-in-law who was sent at random to take care of Coral, beware that Coral would not be able to survive.
In fact, in the eyes of everyone, a maid is just a maid, and her master almost drowned, and no one shouted injustice when she said it.
If it weren't for Xie Qiaoer's face, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have a mother-in-law.
It is estimated that only after Xie Xunzhu has been diagnosed and treated by the doctor, nothing can be done, and it will be the turn of the coral to see the doctor.
Mu Qingzi and Shen Yunyuan could only be anxious in the yard, Shen Yunyuan cared about Xie Xunzhu's situation, and he only loved the coral and Wu.
Mu Qingzi wanted to help Coral, but there were men around him, so he had to grab Shen Yunyuan, who was closer, for help.
"Xunzhu has a doctor to take care of it, what about the coral?"
