Chapter 1048 An Unsettled River

"At that time, I don't know why it rained continuously for half a month, and the mountain torrent broke out, and the flood even submerged the guardian beast statue outside Bailing Town. People living in low places can only go to high places avoid..."

Feng Qianwei followed Bai Shiba's narration, and her thoughts returned to Bai Ling Town half a year ago.

After the heavy rain stopped, Bai Shiba immediately helped the old mayor to start the search and rescue. Many people were killed in the flash flood, and he could only save the survivors within his ability.

He had been busy for so long that it was getting dark, and he hadn't had time to rush back to town.

The rule of Bailing Town is that you can't enter the gate of the town at night. He rode his horse quickly, but it was still dark.

Suddenly, he heard a cry for help, and he hurriedly rode over, and saw a wrecked carriage in the swollen river.

"There are still people alive inside!"

He didn't care about other things, and immediately tied the rope to the big tree, then tied it to the horse, and finally tied it to himself, and then jumped into the river to save people.

He is very experienced in rescuing people, and because he was worried about the rapids of the river, he made thorough preparations.

The water was very cold, unnaturally cold, and he was shivering all over.

When it got dark, he could only see vague shadows, but couldn't see people clearly.

Following the cries for help, he fumbled to save the man ashore.

He rescued two people. The current was so fast that he almost couldn't make it to the shore. He felt as if he was being pulled down by a force. Fortunately, the horse was smart and felt that he was sinking to the bottom of the water. He immediately ran to the side and pulled them out. water surface.

After landing, he gasped heavily. He also choked on several sips of water in the water before, but he was lucky to come up.

"Thank you sir for saving us."

The rescued woman nodded slightly in thanks, and a boy beside her also thanked him.

"Thank you big brother."

The little boy kept his head down, the light was too dim, and he couldn't see their faces clearly, but he just remembered that the woman was wearing red clothes, with a high swollen belly, she should be a pregnant woman.

"It's okay, it's okay! Now that we have encountered it, we can't just ignore it."

Bai Shiba said with a smile.

"Now it's dark and the road is far away. You take a rest in the thatched shed over there. I'll find someone to pick you up. I only have a horse, so it's not convenient to take you with me."

"Okay, then troublesome son."

The woman's voice was very gentle, and she sounded like a woman with a good personality.

The little boy was very introverted, he didn't speak any more, he just held the woman's hand nervously, looking very dependent on her.

Bai Shiba immediately rode his horse to find someone to borrow a carriage and come back to pick them up, but when he brought someone over, was there anyone else in the hut?

He thought it was because they met other people, so he left first, and after searching for nothing, he left.

But he was afraid that those two people would miss their rescue, so he specially left a fire pocket, water and food for them in the grass shed. There is some hay and a stove in the hut. If they return, they will not be frozen to death.

"Eighteen, let's go quickly! I heard that this area was not peaceful before, and many people drowned in the river next to it."

The companions urged, Bai Shiba didn't pay attention to his words, but still followed him.

He still has to continue to search and rescue, so he can't stay here for too long.

After they left and the light of the fire disappeared, he felt as if someone was watching him while riding his horse. When he turned his head, he vaguely saw a red shadow in the thatched shed, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing there.

The next day he worked all night, and when he returned home after dawn, he felt a tingling pain in his feet. When he took a shower, he discovered that there were two black and purple bruises on his ankles.

He was frightened into a cold sweat, and he quickly applied ointment, but the bruise never faded, until one day when he couldn't feel the pain on his foot, he realized that there was a hard scale growing there.
