After much effort, Wanqing finally climbed to a safe zone.
At this time, I realized that my whole body was extremely sore, as if it was about to fall apart, and the clothes on my body were too damaged to cover my body.
Even on my face, I didn't know when the skin was scratched, and it was burning and painful.
Tang Zhengwen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was safe.
I have also recovered a certain amount of strength and want to get up and leave here as soon as possible. I wonder how Wanqing's two students are doing?
At this time, the flood became smaller and only reached the lower part of Tang Zhengwen's abdomen. My whole back hurt like a knife.
The upper body, not even a single thread, was completely exposed.
Tang Zhengwen couldn't care less about this. It was a good thing to survive in an emergency. If it weren't for the two protruding rocks here, both of them might have entered the river now, and there would be no possibility of survival.
Just as I was about to climb up, I suddenly felt something wrapped around my leg?
Lifting it up, I found that it was a tattered piece of clothing that had long been turned into a towel.
Tang Zhengwen was shocked. These were not his clothes. Was there something inside?
Thinking of this, he tried it again with his feet and touched something soft. He reached down and pulled out a person.
No, strictly speaking, it was already a corpse and had long since lost any life.
Tang Zhengwen couldn't care less about his own fear, he was only afraid of scaring Wanqing and telling her not to look.
Wanqing was very obedient, thinking it was because his pants were washed away and she couldn't hide her shame, so she turned her head to the side.
She also found that her clothes were torn and torn, and she was ashamed to see people, so she pulled a few branches and weeds on the spot and plaited a few pieces around her body, like a green skirt covered with yellow mud.
I was about to help Tang Zhengwen get a "skirt".
At this time, Tang Zhengwen had completely dragged the man out of the water and placed him on the rock. He couldn't help but gasp.
That person has changed beyond recognition, and it is impossible to identify who he is? All the clothes on his body were wiped away by the flood. Just from the fact that there is only a large piece of scalp like two fingers left and the thin body, it can be barely confirmed that he is an old man.
"No, the wound on this man's head does not look like it was caused by being hit by water against a rock. Moreover, there is no sand or gravel in his mouth. Preliminary judgment suggests that it was washed down by water after he was beaten to death." Tang Zhengwen thought this and looked around. He found no one, not even an animal, and couldn't help but feel strange.
He thought for a while, then went into the water again, and unexpectedly touched a cow. I pulled hard several times, but it was too heavy and I couldn't pull it up at all.
He should be the owner of this cow.
Whether the old man was beaten to death by a cow cannot be verified now. However, one thing is certain. Niu and the old man were blocked here, so he and Wanqing had a chance to stop here. Otherwise, they would have been washed away by the flood long ago.
I couldn't help but take another look at the old man, respecting him in awe, and secretly made up my mind that if the family members find this place later, I will help them carry the old man back, bury him alive, and burn incense.
At this time, Wanqing had already finished Tang Zhengwen's skirt, but it was a bit heavy and couldn't be thrown away, so she wanted him to come and get it by herself.
When he looked up, he saw the corpse in front of Tang Zhengwen. He couldn't help but be shocked, and his face turned pale instantly.
"Don't look, this is just an old man herding cattle. For some reason, he was washed here by the flood. If he and a cow hadn't just rushed here and blocked the raging flood, we wouldn't have been able to escape." Tang Zhengwen was busy. Comfort Wanqing.
Wanqing nodded, turned her head away, and said, "Dad, your clothes are also torn. I made one for you in a hurry. It can barely cover your body. Let's make do with it first."
Tang Zhengwen looked at the old man's clothes. He saw that they were no longer clothes, just rags. He originally wanted to shield himself, but thinking about it, it was immoral, so he left them to the old man as the last bit of dignity.
After listening to Wanqing's words again, he nodded and said, "Thank you, Wanqing!"
"Dad, don't be too polite. I am the one to thank. If it weren't for dad, I would probably be dead. Besides, I am already your daughter. How can a father be so polite to his daughter?" Wanqing said hurriedly. , but there was happiness on his pale and muddy face.
Tang Zhengwen nodded and said, "Then I'm welcome. Having a daughter like you is a blessing I, Old Tang, have cultivated in my previous lives."
With that said, he took the "skirt" and put it on.
Then the old man's clothes were wrapped around the old man's lower body.
"What should we do now?" Wanqing heard that he said it was done, then turned around and looked at him worriedly, "I wonder where this old man came from? If his family comes, will they misunderstand us?"
"Don't be afraid. Anyway, you are not afraid of the shadow." Tang Zhengwen naturally understood what Wanqing meant. He was afraid that the other party's family members would come and say that he was a murderer. After all, he and Wanqing looked very embarrassed now.
However, there is no better way now. We can only take one step at a time. Can't we just throw the old man into the water and wash him away again?
Wanqing nodded and chose to believe this man.
Apart from Zheng Bajin, this man is undoubtedly the man she trusts most.
"But we can't just stay here? I don't know how my two students are doing now?" Wanqing was very worried when she mentioned the students.
"Alas, we can't control what happened. I hope they are fine." Tang Zhengwen couldn't find a suitable reason to comfort Wanqing, so he could only wish for good luck secretly.
He believes that in this world, good people will be rewarded. If they are not rewarded, it is just that the time has not come yet.
It would be great if Zheng Bajin was around, he has many ideas.
Tang Zhengwen was thinking this, and suddenly he saw a figure rushing down the mountain. He couldn't help but feel shocked. He stood up hurriedly, ignoring the pain on his body, and stood beside Wanqing.
The man looked a little panicked and was startled when he suddenly saw someone in front of him. When he saw clearly the shapes of the two clay figurines, Tang Zhengwen and Wanqing, he couldn't help but be stunned and said in a deep voice: "What do you do? How did you make it like this?" ?”
"Oh! I know, he must have brought a young woman from another family to fool around, and was washed here by the flood. She really knows how to play! She can even row a boat." The man couldn't help but feel when he saw Tang Zhengwen and the other two looking at him warily. Be self-righteous.
"Shut up, she is my daughter. If you dare to say another dirty word again, I will kill you!" Tang Zhengwen was furious.
Wanqing looked aggrieved. She couldn't understand that no matter where she went, the people she met had psychological problems and dirty thoughts. She was speechless for a moment.
"Hey, I've seen a lot of people who like to say cruel things." The man narrowed his eyes and disapproved, and suddenly walked towards Tang Zhengwen and said, "But this girl is not bad. Although she is dirty now, But it can still be used if you wash it in water."
Tang Zhengwen was furious, picked up a stick, and was about to fight the man.
However, seeing that he was a ruthless person, the man suddenly turned around and ran down the mountain. He said without looking back, "I have something to do today. I will have a chance to compete with you another day."
Tang Zhengwen was stunned for a moment, but did not chase after him. Instead, he was worried that Wanqing would be in danger if she stayed here alone.
After taking a look at the man's back, I saw that the clothes on his back were torn, as if he had been injured. It was probably scratched on the ground by the water just like him.
