Before he finished speaking, Wei Ran put down the bamboo basket, first took out an enamel bowl and gave one to everyone, then lifted the raincloth that had been exposed to the sun for a day, and held the handle of the kettle which was slightly hot.

He opened the lid of the pot and asked Nurse Ji to add some coarse salt to it, then put the lid back on and shook it, then removed the wooden plug from the spout and poured a bowl of fish soup for everyone.

"This fish soup is still hot!"

Nurse Ji said in surprise, even though everyone had been exposed to the sun all day long, there was still cold mud from the knees down. Moreover, it was cloudy again and they were about to cross the river. They could have a drink at this time.

There is nothing better than piping hot fish soup.

Putting down the kettle and picking up his own bowl of fish soup, Wei Ran took a sip and found that the fish soup had been heated to about 50 degrees Celsius. What's more, it also added salt that his body desperately needed, which was already beyond his limit.

Expected.

Each person finished four bowls of fish soup in succession, until only the fish heads, fish scales and bones that were about to fall apart were left in the kettle, and everyone couldn't help but look at the river.

"Let's go" Zhang Erwa threw the enamel bowl into the bamboo basket.

For a while, everyone who had finished the fish soup threw the enamel bowls into the baskets, and helped Wei Ran tie the mouths of the two bamboo baskets with blankets, and connected everyone's leggings together, and then stepped on them.

Walking through the mud, I walked to the edge of the river.

Reaching out, she grabbed the rope that was only 20 centimeters above the water surface of the river and pulled it. Zhang Erwa took the rope from Li Zhuang behind her and tied it around her waist and asked, "You can swim, right?"

"I can" Li Zhuang responded first.

"Me too," Wei Ran replied secondly.

"I..."

Nurse Ji panicked, "I don't know how, otherwise I'll stay..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhang Erwa said without thinking, "The monitor asked me to take you all out. Even if you die, you will have to die outside on the grass!"

After speaking, he looked at the little lama, made a dog-pawing gesture, then pointed to the river, and asked the little lama in Chinese whether he could swim.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I don’t know whether it’s because I didn’t understand or because I didn’t understand. The little lama shook his head and then said in a language that only he and Wei Ran could understand,

"I can not swim".

"It seems he doesn't know how to do it either," Wei Ran helped make a judgment.

"fine"

Zhang Erwa tightened the rope tied around her waist, "It's okay if you don't. We'll drag you two over later, and you'll choke on a few mouthfuls of water at most."

As he spoke, he put the wooden stick in his hand into the river, and then watched helplessly as his elbows were already under the river, but he still hadn't reached the bottom.

Zhang Erwa's face turned pale, she took back the stick and took off the gun and water bottle on her shoulder, "I'll go over first, Li Zhuang, you'll be the second to go."

"Yes!" Li Zhuang agreed without thinking.

Without making any preparations, Zhang Erwa grabbed the rope hanging above the river and walked into the river. With the help of the rope, she swam to the other side smoothly.

"Li Zhuang! It's your turn!" Zhang Erwa said as he untied the rope from his waist and tied it to a wooden stake on the shore.

After receiving the signal, Li Zhuang, who was already prepared, immediately tied the rope around his waist, walked into the cold river water without thinking, and swam smoothly while holding on to the rope hanging on the river.

"Wei Ran, send us the weapons and the bamboo basket first!" Zhang Erwa gave the order again.

"good!"

Wei Ran immediately put everyone's weapons in the bamboo basket originally carried by Nurse Ji, then tied the rope and wrapped the strap around the thick rope hanging on the river.

With the help of the rope, Zhang Erwa and Li Zhuang pulled the first bamboo basket to the other side smoothly. Immediately afterwards, the two bamboo baskets and even the poles carried by Wei Ran were also pulled.

Pulled it over.

"Nurse Ji, you go first." Zhang Erwa said, "What will happen to the little lama?"

"How do I do that?"

Nurse Ji suppressed the panic in her heart and asked, not to mention their lack of physical strength now, even in normal times, such a wide river would be scary enough for her.

"Just hold on to the rope!"

Zhang Erwa commanded loudly, and at the same time, Wei Ran also used the rope thrown from the other side to tie a simple protection that was commonly used in later generations around Nurse Ji's waist and thighs.

While he was helping Nurse Ji get ready, Zhang Erwa also wrapped the leggings rope in his hand half a circle around the rope hanging on the river. This was undoubtedly a smart move.

After some preparation, Nurse Ji grabbed the rope with both hands and walked into the cold river. With the encouragement of people on both sides of the river, she was finally dragged to the other side without any danger before she lost her strength and let go.

"It's your turn"

Wei Ran patted the young lama on the shoulder and repeated his old trick to tie the rope thrown from the other side to the other party's body.

On the other hand, the little lama swallowed visibly, and then, under the instructions of Zhang Erwa and others, gritted his teeth and grabbed the rope bridge and walked into the cold river.

One step, two steps, three steps, when the little lama took the fourth step, he seemed to have missed the step, and like a weight, he sank into the river in the blink of an eye.

"pull!"

Zhang Erwa shouted, pulled the rope in his hand hard, and brought the little lama who was beating wildly in the water to the shore.

"vomit--!"

The little lama, whose legs and butt were pulled up first, had a mouthful of mud sticking out before he could stand firmly. Then, after a violent coughing and wheezing, he finally sprayed the choked water out of his nose.

"call..."

Looking at the people on the other side who were busy appeasing the little lama, Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he would be here...

What are you thinking!

Wei Ran patted the back of his head with a happy expression, but at the same time he also noticed that on the river, which was not flowing very fast, not only was the wooden bowl of the little lama floating, but also the wooden bowl he usually hung around his neck.

The rosary on it.

It's a pity that he discovered it too late, as those two things had drifted quite far away.

"Little Lama!"

Wei Ran shouted to the other bank. When the other bank raised its head, he immediately pointed to the river.

The latter looked in the direction of Wei Ran's finger, and then subconsciously touched his neck and arms. His body, which was also slightly thin, also trembled.

But soon, the little lama showed his bright smile again and shook his head towards Wei Ran.

"Wei Ran, continue!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhuang threw the leggings rope back.

Could something happen to me?

While Wei Ran was tying the rope around his waist, he suddenly thought that something unexpected would happen in this river.

With this in mind, he even checked the rope carefully, then stepped into the cold river, held on to the rope bridge, and swam across exceptionally smoothly.

"It scared me to death, I thought... bah bah bah!" Li Zhuang muttered, obviously thinking about Wei Ran.

"Is the little lama okay?" Wei Ran changed the subject while untying the rope.

Nurse Ji, who was also relieved, quickly picked up this new topic, "He seemed to have cramps when he entered the water, and he fell down because he couldn't swim. Apart from choking on a few water and eating a mouthful of mud, nothing happened."

"In this case"

Before Zhang Erwa could say anything, Wei Ran hurriedly untied the blanket tied to the bamboo basket and said, "Let's take a photo here."

"I was just about to say this." Zhang Erwa smiled naively and scratched the back of his head, "Comrade Wei Ran, please check if your camera is soaked in water, right?"

"Let me see"

Wei Ran said, pretending to put his hand into the oil cloth as a cover, and took out the Rollei double reflex camera from the metal book.

"good"

Wei Ran pretended to be nervous and looked at it before saying, "No water, monitor, where should we shoot?"

Zhang Erwa looked at the other side of the river, then at the other people around him, and said, "Just right here, Comrade Wei Ran, can you...can you take pictures of those comrades on the other side?"

"No problem!" Wei Ran responded happily.

Soon, everyone, including the little lama, stood in a row in the mud. Wei Ran also placed his camera on the bamboo basket, used the viewfinder to cover the young Red Army soldiers, and the man behind him.

The bottomless river let them off the hook, and even trapped the comrades on the other side of the river who were watching them on the meadow.

"get ready!"

"All of you - salute!"

Following Zhang Erwa's command, everyone raised their arms in unison. This time, even the little lama's movements were extremely standard - he usually practiced a lot.

After pressing the selfie button, Wei Ran ran over through the mud, stood with them, and raised his arms together.
