Standing in front of her, there was only a young man, still wearing the military uniform of the Eastern Palace Guards. He looked quite upright, but his face was really ugly, his face was pale and gray, and he looked as if he was dead and not buried.
"Where is the Third Highness?" she asked in astonishment.
"Here!" Leng Yi took a step forward, stood in front of her, pointed at his nose and smiled strangely, "Me!"
…
Yuncheng, by the Bishui River, was crowded with people at this time.
In order to find Xiao Lin, the entire Yuncheng people mobilized.
Everyone held hands in the water, formed a human wall, and searched infinitely outward along the place where Xiao Lin's accident happened.
For fear of missing anything, everyone walked forward almost shoulder to shoulder, for fear of missing an inch.
However, this can be done in shallow waters, but it is powerless in deep waters.
The Bishui River is the longest river in Yuncheng. The river is wide and stretches for dozens of miles. The depth of the water in the river can reach hundreds of meters. It is really difficult to find a person who has fallen into the water in such a river!
But everyone still brainstormed and came up with various ways to salvage it.
A nearby fisherman took out his own big net, dropped a huge boulder on the corner of the net, carried it on a large boat, and cast the net into deep water, hoping to catch something.
They started fishing since dawn, and they fished until the sun was high in the sky, but still found nothing.
The longer time goes by, the more everyone collapses.
It has been three hours since Xiao Lin's accident.
It's been three hours and no one has been found. So, even if they are found next, I'm afraid it will only be a corpse.
His Royal Highness, it seems, is certain to die!
Realizing this, Big Furniture felt heavy-hearted, but no one gave up the idea of laboring.
His Royal Highness the Prince did not hesitate to die with the rebels for the sake of the people in the city.
They had no repayment, so they could only salvage his body and bury him alive to comfort his soul!
King Zhao was also in the salvage team, but soon he was persuaded to leave by King Fu.
"Third Highness, you shouldn't be here now!" He said hoarsely, "I don't know whether His Highness is alive or dead. As a prince, you must shoulder his responsibilities! Although the banditry in Yuncheng has been eliminated, the illness remains unresolved, and subsequent reconstruction matters , it’s even more difficult! You should stand where you should be! Don’t forget His Highness’s instructions! Leave the matter of salvaging the body to the old minister!”
When King Zhao heard the word "remains", he choked in his throat, his eyes felt hot, and his eyes instantly turned red!
"Go!" King Fu urged, "Do what you should do!"
King Zhao nodded and left silently. After landing, he looked back and saw the people squeezing each other in the water. The heat in his eyes finally couldn't be held back and tears fell down.
"How can he do this..." He murmured, "I am really not as good as him!"
The inner guards around him were also sighing.
"I used to hear people praising him, and I was always unconvinced. Now I know that His Highness the Crown Prince's heart is beyond the imagination of ordinary people like us!"
"Those who hold salary for everyone should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow; those who pave the way for freedom should not be trapped in thorns!" King Zhao clenched his fists and secretly swore to the mighty clear water, "Brother, if you If I can return to the human world this time, my foolish brother will only follow your lead!"
The moment the oath was taken, a dazzling golden light suddenly shone in the clear water river.
King Zhao knew that it was just the waves formed when the sun illuminated the water, but somehow, he always felt that it was Xiao Lin who responded to him.
He bowed his head deeply towards the golden light, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were full of determination and calmness.
"Let's go!" He held his head high, "Do what we have to do!
Go save the people from fire and water!
Fulfill his responsibilities as a member of the royal family!
As the sun gradually set in the west, a group of people and horses came galloping towards them. The person in front was Su Li.
They worked hard along the way, taking small roads in order to reach Yuncheng as soon as possible.
The path was rugged, and the horse was sweating profusely from running, but the little baby in his arms was so well-behaved that it made people feel sad. He did not fall asleep, only stared into the distance with a pair of big black and white eyes, and never made any sound.
Su Li was so anxious that he had no time to take care of him for the moment and just kept moving forward desperately.
When she arrived at the Bishui River, she burst into tears when she saw the river full of people!
Did the person who brought her warmth and support in her past and present lives just sleep at the bottom of this cold river?
No!
She will never accept such an ending!
Seeing her coming, King Fu led people to greet her and gave a general account of the salvage situation.
Although Su Li came here in a hurry, she actually didn't have any good ideas. All she could do was to do the stupidest fishing and searching like these people in the river.
However, she came from the realm of evil spirits, and her water-based skills and breath-holding skills are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
With her skills, there would be no problem in swimming for an hour in the area where Xiao Lin fell into the water.
Knowing that the shallow water area had been searched and that the deep water area could not be confirmed, she took off the baby and was about to go into the river. The baby curled up and started crying again.
"If you keep making trouble, I won't want you anymore!" Su Li threatened, "I can't take you into the river with me!"
The little kid cried even harder when he heard this.
"You want to go into the river?" Xu Qiang was startled, then shook her head firmly, "You are so small, you were washed away within a few seconds of entering the river!"
"Yes!" Cheng Yue nodded, "Don't look at the calm surface of the river, but actually there is an undercurrent surging below! I know that you are good at martial arts, but when it comes to water, the water is more powerful than you!"
"I am better at water than any of you!" Su Li interrupted her, "Don't say any more, it's important to save people! Find someone to hold this baby, and I'll get down right away!"
After saying that, he thrust the baby into Chengyue's hand.
Chengyue had a headache from her baby crying, so she had no choice but to coax her: "When the girl goes into the water, I will send someone to hold you on the boat and go with her. Do you think this is okay?"
The little kid blinked when he heard this and stopped crying immediately.
"You kid!" Su Li shook his head, "That's it, let's do it!"
She changed into simple clothes, tied up her trouser legs and arms, and was about to get ready to go into the water. Wen Jin'an behind her suddenly said: "You have been searching and rescuing downstream, haven't you gone upstream?"
King Fu was startled: "The current is so fast that if someone falls in, he will definitely go downstream. Why do we search upstream?"
"Actually, we also searched upstream, but nothing was found!" Mo Yan beside him said, "The main reason is that fishing is impossible in deep water! There are reefs in the water, and every time the fishing net is pulled up, it is scraped to pieces. , let alone a human being, not even a single fish can be caught in the net!"
"Why do Mr. Wen think that His Highness might be upstream?" Su Li looked at Wen Jin'an.
"Because... the power of black fire is... very great!" Wen Jin'an explained, "I asked just now that the power of the pack of black fire had formed a huge vortex on the water surface, and this vortex may have formed in a short time. Change the flow direction of the river within a certain period of time. After Your Highness fell into the water, according to common sense, you should indeed go downstream, but it is also possible to go upstream!"
"Where was the whirlpool at that time?" Gu Qiancheng asked anxiously.
