Nanxi River originates from the heavy mountains in the southwest of Xinghua. After the stream rushes down from the mountain stream in the deep mountains of Xiayuan, it creates a vast and flat plain in the middle and lower reaches of Xinghua. After entering the flatland, the water volume of the stream did not decrease, but the river surface became wider, and the water flow naturally slowed down.
Nanxi is the mother river of Xinghua, with eight mountains, one water, and one field. Even this field was brought by this mother river. There are not many fields here to rely on this river for irrigation, but Nanxi's mother's temper is also unstable. There is more and sometimes less water. When there is more water, the paddy fields on the south bank have to stop harvesting. When there is less water, the paddy fields on the south bank can still be scooped out. Solve an urgent need. But it will still be affected to a greater or lesser extent.
Although there is one area in Xinghua that is close to the sea, most of it is inland, and there are very few transitions to the plains in the middle. After leaving Xinghua City, there are rolling mountains behind it.
This geographical environment means that people here mainly rely on the mountains for a living. Not many people understand the nature of water, and very few make a living on streams, rivers, lakes and ponds.
On the huge Nanxi River, the river flows leisurely to the north. Only the afterglow of the sun shines on the river. Water birds and wild ducks play on the water, but no one can be seen moving on it. Too many people died because of this river. Every year when the river floods, the bodies of the people washed away cannot be found. If you are lucky, you can go to the Fengting estuary downstream to look for them. The bodies may be stranded there.
After Liang Chuan placed the fish in the ditch, he and his brother Zhao waited quietly on the beach by the river. The river sand is fine and is a high-quality material for construction, but no one seems to have noticed this in this era, leaving the great resources lying beside the river embankment.
Nanxi has no river embankment, and the water level of the river changes with the seasons. When the rainy season comes, the water level of the river will surge. During droughts in winter and spring, the river water will recede, exposing the fine sand at the bottom of the river.
"Brother Zhao, can you swim?" Liang Chuan asked.
"I'm a landlubber. If I fall into the water, I'm like a stone. I'll be gone with a splash. Others can flop twice, but I can't even do it once." Zhaodi said with a wry smile.
"That's not okay. Swimming is a necessary survival skill. You should learn it carefully when you have time. If both your wife and mother fall into the water, you can only save one of them."
"Third brother, I don't have a wife. My mother has been dead for a long time..."
"Uh... Let's not talk about it anymore. Does anyone sell honey here?" Liang Chuan asked curiously. He thought it would be delicious if there was fish.
Fresh fish are cut open and then skewered and grilled on the fire. You can add some salt or honey. When Xiang Shaolong traveled to the Qin Dynasty, he conquered Shan Rou and Cao Qiudao with a few honey grilled fish, and learned the peerless skill. Swordsmanship finally reaches the pinnacle of life. I can also carry forward this fish.
"Third brother, there is honey on the mountain, but you have to be stung by wild bees a few times. It hurts like hell. If you are not careful, you will really die. Many children in the village were stung all over their heads. They are so greedy that they can't bear it. "Come on, I'm afraid of being stung, so I quit." Zhaodi's face turned slightly red, remembering the embarrassing things in the past.
"Isn't there anyone selling it in the market?"
"The harvested honey is very valuable. How can we ordinary people afford it? It's either the officials or the bosses of big families. Only they can afford the harvested honey." Honey can only be collected with the thunder of the sky. , beekeepers have to endure a lot of hardships, and the price is certainly not cheap.
But Liang Chuan didn't know that he was still stuck in the impression of artificial breeding in later generations. Not to mention wild honey, artificial honey without sugar-added water was very rare, not to mention wild honey, which was harder than reaching the sky. ah.
"Really, it's so rare, tsk tsk." Liang Chuan didn't expect that honey would be in short supply in this era, and an idea flashed in his mind, as if another idea had appeared.
The river was quiet, and no movement could be seen. What Zhaodi lacks is patience, and he only thinks about eating fish. As for this process, he would just ignore it if possible.
"It's early. How long have we put it down? Don't think that the fish in the river are all greedy fools like you. They are also very smart. As soon as we put it down, they will definitely test it first. When they really find out what's inside, When it’s safe, I’ll eat them one by one, there’s no rush.”
While the two of them were waiting by the river, there was a sudden thump in the tree seat on the river bank behind them, just like Brother Zhao said a stone fell into the water, without even a splash. It's just that the movement was too loud. If it were a stone, it would at least be a stone weighing several dozen kilograms.
The two people were frightened by the movement and quickly stood up and looked around.
Then a girl's urgent cry came from the bushes: "Come here, help me, the horse's egg fell into the water!"
Oops, someone fell into the water! Liang Chuan took three steps and two steps at a time and jumped up to the high ground on the north bank. He stood on the high ground and looked at the river carefully. There were no splashes at the place where the child fell, and there was no figure splashing in the river. Where was he going? Fish?
Suddenly Liang Chuan saw a small hand raised in the river, trying hard to grab something, but he couldn't swim, and the river quickly swallowed his little body.
Liang Chuan looked at the direction, took two or three steps back, made a preparatory move, and plunged into the water with a sudden movement. The current was very fast. Liang Chuan made a perfect entry into the water and looked at Lafeng, but after entering the water, he didn't come back again. . Brother Zhao was trembling with fear. Seeing that Liang Chuan hadn't come out either, he kicked up his legs and wanted to run back to call someone. After running for two steps, he realized that it was only a year ago that this person called him, and Liang Chuan's body was long gone. It was cool enough, so he turned back and pulled around, trying to find a long wooden stick. When Liang Chuan emerged, he could give Liang Chuan a hand.
The Nanxi water was cold and refreshing. After Liang Chuan plunged in, he could still feel the chill at the beginning of spring and winter, and his face was cold and cold. Liang Chuan's system became significantly stronger after traveling through time. With a few pulls on his body, all the chill had been driven away.
The river water is quite clear, not much worse than that of later generations. Liang Chuan opened his eyes, and there was no stinging sensation at all. Instead, he felt that the water was like eye drops, directly in contact with the eye mask. It was ice cold, and it was very comfortable to see the scenery in the water.
No wonder people say that Nanxi is full of wealth. There are a lot of aquatic plants, fish and shrimps at the bottom of the water. Fish with tails bigger than forearms are swimming happily next to Liangchuan. As soon as Liangchuan makes a move, he swims there like lightning. Elsewhere, they were playing hide and seek with Liang Chuan.
Liang Chuan couldn't care about these fish at this moment. The child didn't know where he was, and he had no direction in the water. He could only use the weak light that penetrated the bottom of the water to search for movement under the water.
There are many undercurrents at the bottom of the water, and the river water keeps rolling with Liangchuan. At this moment, Liang Chuan finally understood why no one came to seek life in this river. With such a strong current, it would be very difficult to survive after falling into the water. He Baozheng tried his best to persuade himself not to come to this river, which seemed to be a very good intention.
Suddenly, Liang Chuan saw a dark figure directly in front of him, which looked like a person, but had lost consciousness. His body was floating in the water like duckweed, neither floating nor sinking. He must have been involved in an undercurrent.
Liang Chuan kicked his legs hard, and his feet exploded with strong propulsion like duck webs. With a few strokes of his hands, his body broke away from the undercurrent and swam towards the drowning child. Liang Chuan grabbed the unconscious drowning child, swung his feet more violently, and tried to swim upward.
The old man said that when you are drowning, you cannot swim in the direction of the light, because that direction is the opposite. Many people do not understand the principles of underwater life, so they lose their lives.
Brother Zhao took a dead branch and wandered back and forth on the shore, but still saw no movement on the water. He was so anxious that he was about to burst into tears. Liang Chuan now had to support a large group of people and set up a school for the village. If he died in the river because he came to catch fish with him, he would become the eternal sinner of the village.
Liangchuan suddenly appeared on the calm river. Zhaodi screamed with excitement. He ran to the bank near Liangchuan, handed the branch over and shouted: "Hurry and grab it!"
The power of the river was too great. Liang Chuan was still holding a child in his hand. He wanted to swim to the shore with the power of his breath, but he overestimated himself and could only hold the child in one hand and stretched out his other hand to grab it and hand it over to his brother Zhao. branches.
A few meters away, Liang Chuan exhausted all his strength and finally caught it!
Zhaodi sat on the ground, fell backwards, and forcefully pulled Liang Chuan back to the shore. It was really Shen. Several children saw it and ran over to help pull it out. Zhaodi didn't know but thought there was some big object hanging on the other end of his branch. He pulled Liang Chuan to the shore until his hands were almost exhausted.
When they were pulled ashore, the girl who shouted first cried first.
"Ma Dan was drowned." A child cried, and several children started crying one after another.
When Liang Chuan heard the cry, he took a few deep breaths, turned over hard, and lay on Ma Dan's body. The big plier-like hands opened the purple-colored mouth of the horse's balls, and the whole person pressed on it, mouth to mouth!
Everyone was shocked! This beast, worse than a pig or a dog, was actually insulting a child who had just died!
Even the wailing girl was too frightened to cry.
Brother Zhao was frightened by Liang Chuan's dirty and strange behavior. When he realized what he was doing, he immediately pulled away from Liang Chuan and said, "Third brother, everyone is dead. Don't mess around. The dead one is the most important!"
Liang Chuan still had the energy to chat with Zhaodi, so he pushed him away, continued to take a deep breath, and then breathed into Ma Dan's mouth.
Then he kept pressing Madan's chest with both hands.
That's right, artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Zhaodi had never seen this method of torturing corpses before, and he was so frightened that he cried out: "Third brother, what's wrong with you? Everyone is dead!"
When Zhaodi cried, several children also cried, and for a while, the north bank of the south stream became a group of weeping people.
"Uncle, Ma Dan is dead... Don't press it anymore..." The girl rushed forward and pulled and pulled, but she couldn't shake Liang Chuan at all and could only hammer him on the back.
How could any of them understand Liang Chuan's intentions? Liang Chuan kept pressing and blowing air into his mouth, making his already tired body even more tired.
Poof, a miracle happened in an instant.
