Chapter 18: Perception Failure
The night was very peaceful, and Lin Yu was woken up by the alarm clock in the early morning. Everything was packed up, and he was ready to go to see Lu Xue'er. He tiptoed to the door and tapped on it, but received no response. He knocked on the door again, but there was still no sound in the room, and it seemed that Lu Xue'er was no longer in the room.
Then Lin Yu walked to the front desk of the hotel, wanting to ask the woman about Lu Xue'er's whereabouts. The woman was still napping at this time, and when she was woken up, she stretched out, "I don't know! If you don't look, you just give her a call. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Yu remembered that he seemed to have never seen Lu Xue'er use a mobile phone. It's really inconvenient to contact her, so you must get one for her when you go back. As he thought, he walked to an open space outside the hotel, where a few cars were sparsely parked, one of which was the same one he and Lu Xue'er had left here last night.
Before he got to the front of the car, he saw Lu Xue'er standing there with her back to her. He hurried over, and the sight in front of him made him a little stunned, "How can this be?" I saw that the four wheels of the car had disappeared, and only the body was left on the ground. Lu Xue'er seemed to be thinking about something, and after a long time, she said to Lin Yu, "It's weird, I can't feel the falling wood last night, and I can't feel that someone downstairs is touching the car." ”
Lin Yu also reacted that something was wrong, her perception was sealed, but Lu Xue'er didn't, this distance was basically under her nose. No wonder she suddenly braked hard last night, it turned out that she didn't perceive it in advance. But the bandits didn't look like they were capable of doing this, and they should all be in the police station by now. And who unloaded the wheel?
The hotel owner didn't know about it, and the facilities were rudimentary, and there was no surveillance. Knowing that this matter was not simple, the two didn't want to trouble the police, so they just asked the hotel owner to contact a mechanic to come and put the wheels on.
Tossed and turned until noon, and then they set off again. This section of the road seems to be good during the day, and it is no wonder that some people choose to come here to escape the heat. After driving some more distance, a lake appeared at the foot of the mountain in the distance. Surrounded by mountains, the lake is sparkling and picturesque.
Lin Yu was looking at the scenery with some comfort, but he heard a muffled sound of 'bang', as if the car had hit something. He hurried forward, and a goat lay in a pool of blood in front of him. This time, Lu Xue'er was angry, "In the end, there is no end, three times and twice, make this little trick play on me!" With that, she stepped out of the car and raised her hand to shoot a fireball that instantly burned the goat to charcoal.
Seeing that Lu Xue'er was a little angry, Lin Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Maybe this is the nearby goat that suddenly jumped out, this guy is gray, it's normal not to notice!" As he spoke, he stepped forward and poked at the charred horn, and the moment his fingertips touched it, the charcoal suddenly dispersed into a pile of ashes.
Seeing that Lu Xue'er frowned again and again, she couldn't say that there was anything wrong. Descending to the foot of the mountain, the car drove to the lake. If you look at it up close, it's not a flavor. There are also three or two small boats in the lake, which seem to be local villagers fishing. Lin Yu proposed to let Lu Xue'er stop and go to the lake to relax, but she was full of too many doubts at this time, and she didn't have the heart to play at all.
After continuing to drive around the lake for a small half circle, Lin Yu suddenly exclaimed, "Where are the fishing boats?" Why is there one missing?" Then he saw the calm water begin to roll up, and the huge waves swept a small boat down like an octopus tentacle. At this time, there was still the only fishing boat on the lake that was desperately rushing to the shore.
Lu Xueer stopped the car and saw that there was a problem in the lake. She told Lin Yu not to move in the car, and then flew towards the center of the lake. The lake is rolling again, and it is about to swallow up the last fishing boat. Lu Xue'er had already stepped to the boat and saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, shaking the oars vigorously. She picked up the girl and immediately jumped out of the air.
Then a huge wave crashed on the boat, sweeping the boat to the bottom. Back in the car, the girl was stunned for a moment, then sat on the ground and began to cry. Lu Xue'er stretched out her finger and tapped on the center of the girl's eyebrows to stabilize her mind. When the girl slowly quieted down, Lu Xue'er asked, "What is in this lake, do you know the reason?"
The girl got up and wiped a handful of tears, and then said with a deep salute, "Thank you, Sister Fairy, for help, I don't know what happened, everything was fine just now, Erdan and Uncle Liu are still in the lake, sister, go and save them!" Lu Xue'er looked at the calm lake and shook her head slowly, "There are no more people in the lake, there is chaos under the water, I can't see through it." ”
Hearing this, two more lines of tears flowed from the girl's eyes. Lin Yu comforted, "Sister, don't cry yet, we'll send you home and tell your family about it, so that we can find someone to salvage them" The girl bit her lip and nodded. Then he led the two into a mountain path.
After walking for about ten minutes, a mountain village with varying heights appeared in front of me. The village is not large, with only about a dozen families. The girl has no father and no mother, and she has been dependent on her grandfather who has suffered from eye disease since she was a child. When she got home, she threw herself into her grandfather's arms and cried.
"Niu'er, what's wrong?" The old man patted the girl on the back and asked, "What are you anxious about?" Are you being bullied outside? Seeing that the girl was crying breathlessly, Lin Yu opened his mouth and told the old man what had just happened. Hearing the voice of an outsider, the old man was stunned at first, and then immediately reacted. He touched the girl's head, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to come back." I have to go to your Aunt Zhang and Uncle Wang's house to report a message. As he spoke, the old man stood up tremblingly to leave.
This girl is also sensible, and quickly wiped her tears, "Grandpa, your eyes are inconvenient, I'll go." The old man couldn't resist the little girl, so he had to agree to let her go over to report the news first, and then said in the direction of Lin Yu, "Two well-wishers, please help me send this girl, don't make any mistakes, I'll come later, blind man." ”
The girl who left the house ran all the way, and soon came to Aunt Zhang's door, who was the wife of Uncle Liu who fell into the lake. Hearing that her man was drowning, she didn't react much, but her eyes were a little blurred. Then he closed the door and staggered to the lake.
Uncle Wang is Erdan's father, who is about 60 years old, and Erdan's 14 years old. He is an old man, and his body and bones are getting worse day by day. Seeing that the child is growing up, he can go out to the lake to fish by himself this year. I never thought that I would encounter such a thing just a few times after I went there. Hearing the bad news, Uncle Wang's eyes rolled and he fainted.
Lin Yu helped Uncle Wang lie down on the bed, and then saw Grandpa Niu'er and another elderly man walking towards this side. After introduction, the old man was the head of the village, and when he heard that something was going on in the lake, he came to take a look.
