The wind was strong, the trees were fluttering, and there were many broken branches and tiles floating on the water, which were sometimes mixed with human clothing. Zhaohai was originally a little watery, first quickly swam to the precarious baby on the water, picked him up in the crook of his arm, and then swam to the shore, Zhaohai was suspended around him with many broken planks and debris blocking his progress, consuming his physical strength.

Holland stood anxiously at the water's edge and waited, one hand grasping the branches on the shore and the other hand stretched far away, desperately trying to reach the Zhaohai that was swimming towards this direction.

He half-lifted the baby and swam towards the shore, and Huo Lanxin shouted at him, "Brother, hold on!" I'm here—come here—"

Zhao Hai swam to the shore as best he could, and the two desperately stretched out their hands to each other, finally holding on to each other tightly. Huo Lanxin used all his strength to drag them to the shore, quickly picked up the baby, patted the baby's back hard, the little baby who had not moved was crying out loud, Huo Lan leaned over excitedly to check on Zhaohai lying on the shore.

Zhaohai, who was already exhausted, finally relieved when he heard the baby's cry, and after experiencing a test of life and death, he actually had a feeling of being reborn after death, and the two looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.

"Brother, how are you?" Huo Lan looked at the pale Zhaohai with a worried face.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired, just rest for a while...... Lan Xin, look at how this kid is crying all the time. Is he hungry? Zhaohai coaxed the child softly, worried.

Huo Lanxin herself was still a child, so she didn't understand these things at all, she blushed and said, "Brother...... I don't know...... Why don't you let him eat some steamed buns first? Huo Lanxin reached out and took out an oil-paper bag from the package, which contained their rations for the past few days.

Zhaohai suddenly realized that he had asked the wrong person, Lan Xin herself was still a child, and she didn't know how to take care of the child, Zhaohai said: "Let's find a place first and change the wet clothes on the child's body, so as not to make him sick." ”

Huo Lanxin nodded in agreement, they walked in the southeast direction, the terrain on that side was going upward, they hurried away, and half a pillar of incense saw a barren land temple. There was no trace of the overgrown temple gate being flooded by the river, there was no human population at all, Zhaohai was holding the baby in his arms, and the two of them pushed away the half-human-high weeds all the way and stepped into the temple. A large cobwebs wrapped around the Buddha statue and the beams of the house, Zhaohai handed the baby to Lan Xin, he closed the temple door and the open window lattice one by one, and said, "If only there were flints and steels to raise a fire, we can coax these clothes dry." Zhaohai lowered his head and straightened his wet robe to the corner of the room, leaning down to pick up a few dry stones, trying to see if he could knock out a spark.

"Lan Xin, look!"

"Wow...... Hahaha......" Huo Lanxin hurriedly picked up a bunch of straw from the corner, and the flames gradually increased.

The sky was dark, and a vigorous fire rose in the temple, and the orange flames of the firewood burned and made a "crackling" sound. Huo Lanxin put her clothes on the bamboo pole, and the humid air was gradually dried by the flames.

The baby slept peacefully in Zhao Hai's arms, he was wrapped in the clean clothes that Lan Xin took out of the luggage, and now she was concentrating on baking goat milk, to say that this goat milk was really hard to come by, it was snatched from the mouth of the little lamb by Zhao Haisheng.

Just now Zhaohai walked out of the temple to find food for the child, there was no crowd along the way, and when he was at a loss, he found a farmhouse, the door was opened, and the owner had long been gone, but it happened that there was a sheepfold in the corner of the farmyard, and there was a ewe that was nursing a lamb in it.

It took him a lot of effort to fight with the ewes for half a time before he squeezed out half a bowl of goat's milk, and he excitedly held the goat's milk like a life-saving baby, and cautiously rushed back to the land temple all the way.
