Chapter 395: On the River Beach

After floating in the water for a while, I finally saw the squinting head. He had jumped a little farther than me before, and now he was close to the middle of the rapids. Under the impact of the strong current, even with all his strength, he could not

I had no choice but to let my body move forward quickly in the water.

In fact, the most dangerous thing in rapids is not just drowning. The water flows too fast and there are too many bubbles in the water. Those things have no buoyancy and will sink if they get in.

What you need to be more careful about are things in the water, which is like driving a car without brakes on the street.

You can't see the underwater situation in the rapids, and you can't avoid it, so it's easy to hit a protruding rock that you were sleeping on and the pain will make your whole body lose strength instantly.

Not long after I entered the water, I bumped into a raised rock under the water. Driven by the huge current, the impact made me feel like my internal organs were about to be broken.

Brother Jie seemed to have heard my movement from a distance. He raised his head with difficulty and shouted, "Is Madam okay?"

How could it be okay? After cursing secretly, I waved my hand and almost gritted my teeth and splashed on the water. The place where it hit was so painful that I could hardly speak at all.

In this way, the two of us floated one after another for a while. I had already taken out some of the things in my bag that were not needed. Except for two bottles of water, there was nothing too heavy in it. I could barely survive in the rapids.

It floated up and gave me some support and help.

Brother Jie is obviously not as lucky as me. The backpack is very heavy at first glance, which will obviously drag him down in the water. Fortunately, the water quality is good enough, so the situation is much more optimistic than mine.

After the dull pain from the impact on my stomach subsided, I raised my voice and asked Brother Jie in front of me loudly: "Brother Jie! What should we do! We can't stay like this forever!"

According to my past experience, in such fast rapids, if there is no one to help, it is almost impossible to climb ashore on your own ability, not to mention that there are cliffs several meters high on both sides, even if it is flat land,

It's very difficult for us to get close.

Brother Jie didn't answer my words for a while. After waiting for a while, I splashed the water a few times and raised my body to see if he was hit by a stone. As soon as I raised my head, I heard the answer: "According to this terrain,

There should be a river beach not far ahead, and the water flow there should be relatively gentle, so you can climb up by yourself."

I don't know how Brother Jie guessed the terrain behind. Anyway, I'm very glad that he didn't tell me that waiting for someone to save us in the water would be like joking with the Lord of Hell. I would die anyway.

Sure enough, after we had drifted out for about ten minutes, the scenery on both sides suddenly became brighter. They were no longer cliffs close to each other, but a large river beach.

The water obviously slows down when it reaches here, because the water level is quickly dispersed, so my body can feel that my feet can touch the bottom of the water during the ups and downs.

Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief. Brother Jie in front had already begun to adjust his body shape and swim towards the river bank.

I quickly followed suit and took advantage of the direction of the current to slowly move diagonally forward. This ensured that I would not walk directly towards the shore and be knocked down by the current.

The terrain of this generation, looking at it this way, is more similar to the deep mountain where we and Suotian were before. That time I accidentally fell into the river, and I encountered a river beach in this way, and I was able to save myself and Suotian.

Little life.

After wasting a lot of effort, by the time we both climbed onto the river beach, we were almost exhausted.

Lying on the stone by the river, I took two deep breaths and wiped the water on my face. Then I realized belatedly that Brother Jie had stood up and started searching around.

Dry wood.

When he ran to a dead tree and scraped the bark, I shivered violently. I remembered that the weather was so cold now, and the two of us were wearing wet clothes, and we would freeze for a while.

I just fell into the river, and my mind was so full of fear that I couldn't notice the problem of the river water.

I took off my wet boots and socks and placed them on the rocks. It was relatively open here and the sunset could still shine down.

It's about six o'clock now, so it's impossible to count on the setting sun to dry your clothes. Judging from Brother Jie's intentions, he probably plans to spend the night on the river bank tonight.

I stood up and stepped on the rocks. I went to carry the branch that Brother Jie had thrown aside to a dry place. Then I turned back and took out the biscuits from my backpack. Fortunately, the packaging was very tight and it had been soaked in water for so long.

It's all still working.

Our bodies are wet, so it is impossible for us to drink cold water in such weather.

Brother Jie brought back a lot of firewood. After lighting the fire, he took out a square iron box from his backpack. I didn't know what it was used for, but it was very good for boiling water.

.

The sky was getting dark, so we both took off our coats and dried them with branches. Although Brother Jie was rather vulgar in appearance and had used his hands to give me contact information before, in fact he was very conservative.

Sitting in front of the fire, I wish I were eight feet away.

If I hadn't forced him just now, he wouldn't even take off his coat.

After eating something, I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I just held my head and stared at the river.

Brother Jie was watching the surroundings very cautiously. If it weren't for fear of being frozen to death, I believe he would not even light a fire in order to prevent others from hearing and seeing.

In fact, I was also a little worried that those people would not give up to catch up, but then I thought about it. I was in the valley before, fell into the rapids, and was swept out of the two hills in a short time. Today

After drifting for such a long time, we might be far away from those people. Even if we catch up, it will definitely take a day and a night, so as not to delay our rest for the night.

There was silence like this. I thought that Brother Jie was not going to speak. Who knew that after he patrolled around the night, he sat down in front of the fire again and slowly said: "Madam, would you mind chatting with me?"

Sentence?"

I didn't expect him to speak. I was stunned for a moment, then waved my hand quickly: "If you don't mind, that's up to you."

He spoke directly without any rush. He pondered for a while and then looked at me: "Madam... when did you and the head of the household meet?"

After thinking for a moment: "It's been more than two years, I'm ten months pregnant, and with the baby, it's almost eight months. Well, it should be two or three years."

"That is, when the virus first spread?"

"Yes." I nodded: "About four or five days after that, I met him accidentally, and Suotian saved me."

A slight surprise flashed across his face: "Did the boss save you?"

"Yes." I nodded: "What's wrong?"

"No." Brother Jie shook his head: "The head of the family rarely meddle in such nosy matters before."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize that what he said was inappropriate, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to look down on you."

After laughing twice, I said, "I understand what you mean. When I first met Suo Tian, ​​he was indeed that kind of person."

"Then what kind of person do you think the head of the house is now?"

I was stunned for a moment: "Well...actually I can't really say, but one thing is that he is indeed a good husband and a good father."

After hearing my answer, Brother Jie gave a rare smile, and then said: "This is the first time I heard someone comment on the leader like this."

I laughed: "If anyone tells you that Suotian is a good husband and father, remember to tell me. I have to go find that little vixen."

Hearing this, Brother Jie laughed again. As soon as Brother Jie smiled, the obscene look on his face immediately disappeared.

After thinking for a while, I asked: "Why did you think of suddenly talking to me about this?"

He put away his smile: "I have been surprised since I met you. All the soldiers under special training in our C team and even in our headquarters never thought that the leader would find a woman to marry or even have children."

I said nothing and waited for him to continue.

"Before you appeared, our mission was to constantly shuttle between such mountains and ridges. We were unknown to the world and completed tasks that were almost impossible for ordinary people. The master took us with him. He was at that time.

..There are only two things in his eyes, accepting the mission and completing the mission. He doesn't care how much our brothers have suffered. We were all trained by him, but it seems like he doesn't have the slightest emotion. To be honest.

...At that time, although I was obedient to the boss, I was more numb."

I nodded: "And then."

"Then..." Brother Jie seemed to be in a trance: "In the past two years of missions, although the leader was as unsmiling, talkative, and very strict as before, after the loss of his brother, his reaction was obviously different from before.

It’s different. Last time in the mountains, I was trapped in mid-air by zombies. My boss told everyone else to evacuate, and he stayed and took the risk to save me. It’s probably a bit hypocritical to say this, but a drop of kindness will repay you with a spring.

, the master stretched out his hand to save me, then I, Lao Jie, must keep my life no matter what, and protect the master to the end!"

Then, as if Brother Jie had opened the door to talk, he kept talking about all the trivial matters in the Tiansuo Tian mission.

Finally, when I asked Suotian when he started leading Team C, he suddenly fell silent and stopped talking, and then remained silent all night, as if he was avoiding my question.

Early the next morning, the clothes had been dried. After putting them on, Brother Jie ran to some corner for convenience.

I ran to the river to get some water to heat up and wash my face, but I just put the iron box on the fire and planned to go to the river to see if I could catch a fish or something for a snack.

As soon as I walked to the river, I heard a bang, then the sound of an iron box falling to the ground, and someone kicked my face wash away!!!
