Chapter 166
After the first wave of flood peaks rushed through the border, the momentum of the river water gradually calmed down, but the river water was still rising, and the more it dragged down, the more dangerous it became.
Li Shaoan took off his clothes and only wore a pair of briefs, revealing his well-proportioned and sturdy body, climbing the edge of the stone into the water.
Sun Liping watched Li Shaoan get into the water, her heart hung over and kept praying for Li Shaoan, so she must not have any accidents.
After flooding touched his waist, Li Shaoan stepped on the riverbed. The impact of the water flow was very strong. If he was not careful, he would be washed away. He tried to stand firm and tried to let go of his hand. He left the rock and slowly moved towards the two people not far away.
Li Shaoan was about two meters away from the two of them. He heard the two of them shouting, "Don't come over, don't come over!"
He felt keenly that the situation might be a bit abnormal. Li Shaoan stopped, did not continue to move forward, and asked, "What's going on over there?"
"Young man, the water here is very deep. We are standing on the roof of the car!" One of them shouted at Li Shaoan.
Li Shaoan was shocked and secretly cried out that it was very dangerous. Standing on the roof of the car, the flood had not passed his knees. It was obvious how deep the water was. If he had not heard the reminder from the two of them just now, he would step forward rashly and step forward, and if he had just stepped out of the air, he would be swept away by the flood immediately.
It turned out that the two of them were driving to enjoy the flowers. Unexpectedly, they would suddenly see a flood, so they drove the car to the riverbed. As a result, when the flood came, they directly flooded the car.
Standing in the water, Li Shaoan was also thinking of a solution. He couldn't just waste it like this. Now he just dared to cross the first wave of flood peaks. He had to save the two of them now, otherwise when the second wave of flood peaks arrived, all three of them would be washed away.
"You took off your pants and a pair! Tie them into ropes and throw them to me!"
With his head running high, Li Shaoan thought of a way to try it out, and immediately asked the two men to take off their clothes, tie their tails to their knots, and throw them to him.
After hearing this, the two of them immediately acted according to Li Shaoan's words and took off their bodies cleanly. They were all wearing only a pair of briefs, just like Li Shaoan.
Li Shaoan and the younger man opposite him grabbed the rope tied into clothes and let the gray-headed old man cross the water first.
The old man looked about sixty years old. Fortunately, he was still strong. It should be because of his years of exercise. He threw himself down and came to the water, pulled the rope hard and kicked towards Li Shaoan.
The two were still one meter away, so Li Shaoan reached out and pulled him to his side.
Successfully rescued the older man, and the other man in his thirties tied the rope around his waist. Li Shaoan and the old man worked together to pull him over and tried their best to pull him over.
The two of them were successfully rescued and couldn't help but hug Li Shaoan to express their gratitude.
Li Shaoan didn't dare to be careless. Although he rescued the two of them from the roof of the car, he had to hurry back to the boulder, otherwise the second time the flood peak came over, he would still be unable to escape the fate of being washed away by the flood.
The three of them tied their waists with ropes, so that even if someone slipped under his feet, they would not be washed away.
Li Shaoan walked in front and opened the way, letting the old man walk in the middle, and the other man in his thirties walked in the end.
A few meters away, he felt like he was walking hundreds of meters away. Sun Liping, who was standing on the stone anxiously, was already anxious. When she saw Li Shaoan back to the stone, she hurriedly helped her to pull him up.
After Li Shaoan climbed up the stone, he worked with Sun Liping to pull the old man up, and finally the middle-aged man in his thirties.
This thrilling trip to the water was finally over safely. The three people climbed up from the water were exhausted and lying on the stones, without even the strength to turn over.
After resting for a while, after recovering a little bit of physical strength, the middle-aged man sat up and greeted Li Shaoan and Sun Liping.
"Young man, thank you for risking your life to save us. Just speak up if you want any thanks."
"Brother, I really never thought about asking you for your gratitude. Seeing that you are in danger, I can't stand by death and refuse to save you."
"No, you have to say, or you will tell me your name and unit."
This middle-aged man in his thirties has a standard square face with a thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square nose and wide mouth, and a sharp look. He looks very stylish, especially between the lines of speaking, which exudes an unopposed aura.
Sun Liping has rich social experience than Li Shaoan, and she is also a vice principal after all. She usually has more opportunities to come into contact with officials than Li Shaoan, so when she sees the middle-aged man in front of her, she probably guessed that he might have an identity.
Li Shaoan smiled at the man and said, "Brother, you really don't need to thank me. It's a matter of not asking for anything in return for rescue."
The middle-aged man's tone became serious, "Today you have to tell me your name and unit."
At this time, the old man who had been lying on the stone got up and scolded the middle-aged man: "Shaofu, what are you doing? This young man is our savior. Is there anyone who speaks to his benefactor like this?"
The middle-aged man immediately lost the majestic momentum he had just now in front of the old man, and said respectfully to the old man: "What the teacher taught me is that I was in a hurry for a moment, and I am really sorry."
"You, for many years, I still can't change your irritable temperament." The old man looked at the middle-aged man and shook his head helplessly.
Sun Liping saw the conversation between the two, and guessed that the old man's identity must be higher than that of this middle-aged man. As for what his identity was, it was hard to say.
"Old sir, are you also a teacher?" Li Shaoan couldn't help but feel curious when he heard the middle-aged man call the old teacher.
The two of them looked at each other and looked at each other. At first, they hadn't reacted yet. They guessed that it must be the conversation between the two that made Li Shaoan misunderstand, and then smiled.
The old man smiled at Li Shaoan and said, "The so-called three people must have a teacher, but they may not have to be called a teacher in the school."
Li Shaoan nodded and said, "What the old man said is that he is stupid."
The old man looked at Li Shaoan and Sun Liping and asked, "I heard you just said "Yes". Could it be that you two are school teachers?"
Li Shaoan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I am not a teacher, the lady beside me is. She is the principal of No. 4 Middle School."
It was too late for Sun Liping to stop her. Unexpectedly, Li Shaoan casually told her identity. At that moment, he could only introduce herself, "Hello, old man, I am Sun Liping, vice principal of No. 4 Middle School. Today I organized the school teacher to visit Taohuazhou, but I didn't want to encounter danger."
"Well, I have seen the teachers' performance just now. Principal Sun gave up the opportunity to escape regardless of his personal safety to remind tourists that such behavior is a righteous act. It is a blessing for educators like Principal Sun." The old man spoke without being humble or arrogant, calm and moderate, and had a leadership style.
"The old man has been over-rewarded, but in fact, the one who really makes the most of my friend Li Shaoan."
"Oh, so your name is Li Shaoan?" The old man smiled very satisfied. His method was even more tactful, but he asked for the names of the two without any trace.
Li Shaoan nodded and said, "Yes, my name is Li Shaoan, I am from Tieshanwan, and I am farming at home."
The old man couldn't help but smash his mouth, feeling curious. He had a sharp look and would never read it wrong when looking at people. Li Shaoan looked extraordinary and elegant, but he really didn't look like a farmer who farmed.
"Shao'an, have you ever been to school?" the old man asked.
Li Shaoan replied: "Huaxia Agricultural University is a senior, graduated this summer, and currently farming at home is an off-campus practice."
The old man raised his eyebrows. Huaxia Agricultural University is a nationally renowned university. It seems that his vision of people is indeed not wrong. Li Shaoan is really a rare talent, especially when he shows firmness and decisiveness at critical moments. This is not a temperament that ordinary people can have.
"Did you ever think about going to a bigger city exhibition after graduation?" The old man's eyes were filled with love for Li Shaoan.
Li Shaoan shook his head firmly and said, "I will return to Tieshan Bay after graduation."
The old man wondered: "Talents like you are rushing to go wherever they go, so why should they continue to return to the countryside?"
"There is a saying in our rural areas that children do not care about their mothers and dogs do not care about their family poverty. Tieshanwan is my hometown. My dream is that one day it will make Tieshanwan the richest village in the county, city, and even the province."
Speaking of these grand ambitions, Li Shaoan was not very embarrassed. He touched the back of his head and blushed. "Although there are still many problems now and the road is tortuous, I believe that one day I can do it."
The old man couldn't help but applaud Li Shaoan and kept praising him. Heroes have been born as young men since ancient times.
"Shaofu, these are all talents!"
"The teacher is right. Comrade Shaoan and Comrade Liping are both rare talents."
The old man was quite regretful and took Li Shaoan's hand with great love and sighed: "What a pity, your ideal is to return to your hometown. Otherwise, I really want to invite you to Dongyang."
Dongyang? Isn’t that the provincial capital of Dongyue? Li Shaoan said with peace of mind that this old man is from Dongyang.
The water level continued to rise. After waiting for a while, firefighters arrived on the river bank and set up a assault boat to rescue people, saving all four people trapped on the rocks.
