Chapter VI
Ji Liu was pushed by the crowd, and had to let go of the hand holding Ji, and staggered forward helplessly, she turned her body around, turned her back to the direction of the crowd, and tried to stretch out her hand to Ji Mou, who was getting farther and farther away: "Grandpa!" Grandfather! Stop pushing, stop!! ”
She tried to push the crowd away from each other, so that it would be easy to flow out of the affluent space, and walked towards Ji against the flow of people. Who knows, the flow of people who had just been set aside only lasted for a moment, and then regrouped, and pushed her faster and farther, and it was even more difficult to gain a firm foothold.
Before Ji disappeared from her sight, Ji Liu saw his mouth move twice, and his eyes met Ji Liu from a distance, obviously talking to her. Ji Liu didn't see clearly, if she didn't stand firmly, she might fall to the ground if she wasn't careful.
Now the number of people by the lake is gradually increasing, and their eyes are only the Sheng family house with their heads bowed and smiling lightly, but if Ji Liu falls, she will become a puddle of meat and mud after a few breaths, and this kind of death is very wrongful.
"Stop pushing!" Ji Liu tried to maintain stability, and said loudly to the people who had lost their minds.
But her anger pale in the noisy crowd, no one could give her any response, Ji Liu saw this and stopped talking, retained her strength, and tried her best to move in the direction of Ji Mou.
Just as Ji Liu was concentrating and walking in the opposite direction, a crisp cry reached her ears.
She stopped her footsteps, turned her head and kept searching in the crowd, but in a thousandth of a second, her eyes widened, and she looked in horror at the passers-by, between the legs, a child was vaguely pushed to the ground, and her mouth kept crying: "Mother, mother, wow, ah......"
Maybe the child is too young and blessed by the gods in heaven, and the excited crowd unconsciously gets out of the way, except for the clothes that are a little messy, and the body does not look hurt. Ji Liu's eyes were full of the child, and he didn't dare to stagger for a moment, for fear that the child would be pushed into an unknown corner when he turned his head.
At this time, I don't know what was happening in front of me, the speed of the crowd gradually slowed down, and Ji Liu was able to squeeze the people around him and walked towards the child who was sitting on the ground, crying with snot and tears on his face: "Child, grab my sister." ”
Even if the complicated scene was controlled, and the people around Ji Liu had not dispersed, she still devoted her energy to be on guard. In order to get the children out as soon as possible, away from the people who could go crazy at any time, she tried to show her harmless side.
The boy also heard the voice, stopped crying, and hesitated for a moment before slowly raising his dirty little hand.
Ji Liu smiled with relief, grabbed it, and hugged the child, but because of this, she let down her vigilance in her heart, and completely did not notice the second commotion caused by the crowd because of the return of the ceremony.
The person who was close to him saw a child suddenly being picked up and immediately stopped. Suddenly stopped, the crowd behind them was unexpected, and they crashed straight up, and the people in front of them all brushed and fell down in turn like multi-strand cards.
The lightning and flint Ji Liu subconsciously hugged the child and ran desperately in the direction of the Sheng family.
Fortunately, she was not far from the central encirclement, and it didn't take much effort to run to the edge of the crowd, Ji Liu panted and looked back, but failed to see the little maid brought by the Sheng family in time, they were forming a circle and protecting the Sheng family's big house.
"Bang!" With a bang, Ji Liu hugged the child and collided with the little girl, she stumbled a few steps towards the center uncontrollably, the weight of the child snuggled in her arms, so that Ji Liu couldn't control her body, and she was about to fall, she quickly forced her body to twist, her eyes were closed, and she couldn't care about herself at all.
A sharp pain came from her back, and Ji Liu couldn't help but gasp, without lifting her clothes, she could guess that there was a bruise on her back, especially the one that hit the stone, the pain was worse than other places.
"Ahri!" Just as she was mourning for her back, a sharp woman's voice came from above her head, and Ji Liu opened her eyes and met a pair of big almond eyes, which were as dazzling as hers.
It turned out to be Chen Fuyue, the grandmother of the Sheng family, who was calling others in her mouth, but her eyes were staring at Ji Liu lying on the ground, and the curiosity and scrutiny in her heart made Ji Liu at a loss.
Ji Liu avoided her gaze and glanced at the child who was well protected, she smiled reassuringly, and the dimples on both sides of her cheeks also amused the child in her arms.
"May the girl get up?" Sheng Li's hand was still pressed under Ji Liu's body, and the squeezing of the two weights made his arm bloodshot, and purple red could be seen in the dark night.
Ji Liu was startled by the male voice in her ears, and when she turned her head, she saw the masked man lying perpendicular to her on the ground, his hands directly into her back. She had always thought that the huge stone was Sheng Li's hand that stretched out to catch the two when they fell.
Ji Liu hurriedly pushed the child away, sat up, watched Sheng Li being helped up by Chen Fuyue, kept rubbing his arms for him, eased the blocked blood, and muttered from time to time: "The strength is ...... small"
She couldn't help but feel a little envious, and quietly stood aside and watched.
During this time, the child's mother came over, hugged the child tightly in her arms, kissed her forehead, screamed one by one, thanked Jiliu and Sheng Li, and left quickly.
Looking at the back of the mother and daughter leaving, Ji Liu suddenly remembered Ji Mou, who had been washed away at the beginning, she was very worried, and then stepped forward to thank Sheng Li. But she stepped too big, forced to turn around and sprained her ankle, and she didn't know it, and it turned out to be a joke.
When she reacted, Sheng Li had been pressed under her, and it was ridiculous to say, Ji Liu's face was buried in an inappropriate position, impartial, and the two of them were flushed, looking like a newlywed couple secretly did something that made people shy.
Seeing such an open scene, the scene was in an uproar, and the crowd who were still arguing about right and wrong just now, all eyes were focused on the two of them.
Chen Fuyue, who had just fallen to the ground because of Sheng Li, was even more surprised, she stretched her head to Ji Liu's buried face, and then slowly squatted down, her slightly open lips touched up and down twice, and then trembled and said, "Girl, this is ...... The place is not right......
Can she not know that something is wrong?!
When Ji Liu heard Chen Fuyue's words, he couldn't help but curse angrily in his heart.
Sheng Li had never encountered this kind of thing, so she had to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead with the mentality that the enemy would not move and I would not move, but Ji Liu could not let the situation develop, she took a deep breath, quickly raised her head and explained to Chen Fuyue: "The little girl's foot is twisted, she can't get up, and Mrs. Trouble calls someone to help me." ”
"Why bother others, I'll come," without waiting for Chen Fuyue to find someone, Ji's voice broke out of the crowd, he walked to the two people lying on the ground with a cane, helped Ji Liu, pulled him behind him, and said politely: "The girl's life is cheap, don't dare to bother." ”
After watching Sheng Li being helped up, Ji looked back at the crowd and continued: "The old man walked all the way and found that except for these two children, the others were not injured. ”
Under the strong arrangement of Ji, the people who participated in the Hundred Flowers Festival finally regained their composure, although the Sheng family will still follow many people behind them, looking and commenting, but it is indeed much better than the crazy pursuit at the beginning.
"Grandpa, are we going to put the lotus lantern together?" Ji Liu only came out after the Sheng family left, she was really embarrassed to go and thank Sheng Li again, at this time Ji Mou supported her and limped on the side of the road.
"Go, haven't you always wanted to put a lotus lantern?" Ji didn't see the strange expression on Ji Liu's face, he only remembered the purpose of this trip, and walked towards the lake with Ji Liu on crutches.
Ji Mou's legs were lame, and his willow feet were twisted, the two of them staggered very slowly, and when they approached Baihua Lake, the lake was already full of people, especially the Sheng family, and there were crowds of people, but there was no previous riot.
Ji Liu observed carefully, and found that there was not too many people in a place, that is, a little distance from the center of Baihua Lake, she and Ji walked over, helped each other to sit on the ground together, and took out the lantern that she had bought before from her pocket.
"Broken ......" may be that today two consecutive falls down, pressed the lotus lamp, one of the eight-petal lotus leaves is no longer formed, the broken residue fell in the pocket, touch a handful and prick the hand, remember the willow heart is inevitably a pity.
I bought two in total, and she handed the intact one to Ji: "Grandpa, you use this, I'll pick one from the lake." ”
Ji Mou couldn't refuse, so he had to take the intact one, watch Ji Liu hold his cane, and reach out to hook it towards the decorative lotus lamp in the lake in front of him. As she swung her crutches from side to side, the lotus lanterns gathered on the surface of the lake slowly dispersed, revealing the original appearance of the lake.
Under the background of the red lantern, Ji Liu saw that there seemed to be a gray-green object floating on the surface of the lake, she touched it lightly twice with the tip of her cane, and the fluctuations of the lake water made it float higher, and Ji Liu saw clearly in this situation.
- It was a human hand, a huge, fat hand that had turned green.
She was so frightened that the crutches in her hand fell to the ground unconsciously, and if it hadn't been for Ji Mou's quick press, the crutches would have floated towards the corpse with the rippling water waves. Ji Liu fell to the ground with a buttocks, raised his slightly trembling hand, and pointed hard in that direction, accompanied by a scream rushing out of her mouth: "Ahhh ”
The noisy lake, amid the screams of Ji Liu, instantly quieted down.
As one of the women completely saw the place pointed by Ji Liu, the entire Baihua Lake went from the original joy to the current crowd fleeing, only a sip of tea was passed.
When the Sheng family heard the movement, someone immediately came here, but fortunately, the people stayed away from the lake, and the road was very smooth.
"Where?" Although Sheng Li was still awkward in his heart, as soon as he saw Ji Liu, he would think of the touch of Ji Liu's embrace, and a thin red rose on his face unconsciously. But after all, he is a fast catcher, and since he heard that there may be a murder, he must not hide in the distance because he is shy.
