Chapter 15: Not afraid of life and death

Huo Xinyan took Xu Qiao to a small shop next to the community, bought two boxes of ice cream, and some snacks.

Take Xu Qiao to the Minxin River not far away to eat.

The Minxin River passing by the city, and the gurgling river in summer, has become a good place for nearby residents to escape the summer heat and cool off.

The weeping willows lingering by the river, and the bluestone path is winding. There are one or two benches for people to rest in the next section.

It wasn't long before afternoon, and it was the hottest time of the day. The weeping willows by the river rolled up leaves, and the noise of cicadas was rapid and irritable.

Of course, no one strolls by the river.

Huo Xinyan took Xu Qiao to the riverside, helped her uncover the lid of the ice cream, and whispered to ask her to take a small spoon.

The two of them walked slowly along the shade of the trees while eating.

Huo Xinyan stuffed ice cream into her mouth and turned her head. She saw Xu Qiao stuffing ice cream into her mouth with her little tongue licking the corner of her lower lip, which was a bit cute. And she always felt that she hadn't seen Xu Qiao for more than half a year, and Xu Qiao seemed to have changed.

But where has it changed? She can't say it.

Xu Qiao seemed to be eating ice cream attentively, but Yu Guang knew that Huo Xinyan was secretly looking at her.

Although she knew Huo Xinyan's kindness, she could not reveal her heart to her, but she would definitely help her in the future after she touched Huo Xinyan's pulse!

"Qiaoqiao, I'm going to be in my sophomore year after the summer vacation. I'm definitely not going back during the winter vacation. I'll try to come back during the summer vacation. I'll like more money and take you to Beijing for fun during the summer vacation."

Xu Qiao sighed in her heart, she was still an innocent little girl. She thought about going out too easily.

Huo Xinyan walked silently for a while and then said slowly: "Qiaoqiao, I fell in love with a boy, but he is so outstanding. Many girls like him. What should I do if you think I want to do? I feel that he likes me too, but it seems to be very good to every girl."

Xu Qiao complained in her heart, what should I do? This sounds like a scumbag like a central air conditioner. She can warm girls all over the world. What do you want him to do?

Huo Xinyan was sad: "He has never called me for so long on vacation, nor has he called me at home. It may be because I am self-indulgent."

Because of family reasons, Xu Qiao may not meet a man who convinced her. So her relationship has always been blank. She knew that every relationship was forever at the beginning. But in the end she was defeated by the firewood, rice, oil and salt, and trivial matters in life.

And she is a person with a turtle personality and cannot be sure that she can maintain a long-term relationship with someone. So she doesn't fall in love or get married. Naturally, she has never had any worries like Huo Xinyan.

Huo Xinyan only thought Xu Qiao was the trash can to talk to, and smiled helplessly: "I think it may be because I am too cowardly in my relationship. Sometimes should I be braver?"

As he spoke, he walked through the curved corridor and suddenly realized that he could see the stone bridge not far away.

The stone bridge was exposed to the scorching sun, but there were many people around it.

The first few orange-red fire trucks that Xu Qiao saw, as well as the orange-red figures shaking on the bridge.

I was a little excited and walked a few steps to get closer and look.

It seemed that someone had fallen into the water, and there was a small boat responsible for salvage on the river.

Huo Xinyan also stopped and looked over, sighed: "What happened again? The firefighters are really working hard. Take care of everything."

The river water is deeper under the stone bridge and overgrown with water and grass.

The firefighters took diving equipment several times to find people at the bottom of the four-meter-deep river.

Gu Chengchuan had already changed into clothes, wearing camouflage green short-sleeved sleeves, and leaned down on the railing and looked down.

At noon, three junior high school boys were killed in swimming in this area.

At present, only one child's body was found, and two may be entangled by the water plants at the bottom of the river, or may be washed downstream.

Now the entire river has been searched for the net.

The parents of the three boys were already crying on the shore and were hoarse and wanted to go to the river to find the child.

The police and firefighters pulled the cordon to comfort him, but the parents who lost their children could not hear the comfort. They just cried and wanted to go to the river to find the child in person. At the same time, they were lucky enough to find the body and might still be alive.

Two firefighters who had dived into the water came out of the water and used gestures to rush to the shore, but did not find any.

Gu Chengchuan frowned, and his hand held on the bluestone railing tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand were exposed. He turned his head and said to the warrior beside him, "Give me the equipment, I'll go down and take a look."

The soldier hesitated: "Captain, you still have injuries on your body..."

Gu Chengchuan interrupted: "There are people who are better than me? Quick!"

As he said that, he reached out to take the clothes from the soldier's hand and put them on his body, put the oxygen bottle on his back to prepare to go into the water.

Xu Qiao was watching the orange-red figure carrying diving equipment and holding a rope down the river along the river bank, her heart couldn't help but tightly shrink into a ball. She couldn't see his face, but inexplicably felt that the man was Gu Chengchuan!

The injuries on his back are still so serious, why are you so desperate?

The ice cream in her hand had melted, and the coldness was immersed in her fingers through the cardboard box, as if the chill spread to the heart along the fingertips, making the heart curled up and hurt.

Regardless of Huo Xinyan around him, he walked hurriedly towards the river.

A large sign is erected by the river, with the words on the blue background and white: The water depth is four meters, no swimming is allowed!

Xu Qiao glanced at the sign and felt cold and uncomfortable. Why did she just not cherish her life?

I was still a little far away, but I was stopped by the cordon, and there were people watching the fun in groups of three or three.

Xu Qiao approached outside the cordon, held the ice cream box in her hand tightly, and looked at the river nervously.

The water ripples on the river surface are very fluctuating, and the water surface is a little turbid and cannot see clearly under the water.

Clusters of water plants emerged and gradually drifted away.

Huo Xinyan also followed, looked at Xu Qiao's serious expression, and reached out to hold her hand: "Qiao Qiao, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Qiao turned her head and looked at Huo Xinyan, then pointed to the river surface.

Huo Xinyan was surprised to find that Xu Qiao could understand her words. She looked at Xu Qiao happily. Seeing that she looked nervous, she planned to chat with her later.

Gu Chengchuan quickly emerged from the water, made a gesture with the commander on the shore, and dived under the bridge hole.

Everyone's inertial thinking is that after falling into the water, people will be washed downstream, and even if they are salvaged, they should be searched in place or downstream.

But Gu Chengchuan went upstream and sneaked into the deepest place under the bridge.

The stone bridge has been built for some time. Every year when rivers are cleared, the stone bridge is under the stone bridge that is mainly cleaned up. However, it is also the weakest place. The near the bridge piers is washed into a huge deep pit, forming a small vortex, which is difficult to detect if you don’t pay attention.

Gu Chengchuan sneaked in for a long time this time and he didn't come up for more than ten minutes.

Xu Qiao was a little anxious and grabbed Huo Xinyan's hand with a little force...
