Views:

Most of Ji Qinghuai's scenes today were arranged in the afternoon. The filming process went smoothly, and all the scenes were completed before dark. Today's crew has no night scene arrangements, so they can call it quits early.

Taking off the hood and costume, Ji Qinghuai instantly felt a lot more relaxed. It was still early, and it was rare for Xie Yan to come all the way. Ji Qinghuai was going to take Xie Yan to dinner first.

Walking out of the lounge, the evening wind was blowing head-on, Ji Qinghuai was in a good mood wearing short sleeves blowing the wind.

Ji Qinghuai turned to look at Xie Yan, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Xie Yan: "You decide."

Ji Qinghuai thought for a while, there are no restaurants nearby to take Xie Yan to, if you want to go to a slightly better place, you have to go farther, but they have a car, so it doesn't take much time to go back and forth.

Ji Qinghuai was about to speak, when suddenly someone shouted: "It's not good, someone fell into the water!"

Ji Qinghuai looked forward, and saw a field manager running towards this side in a hurry, Ji Qinghuai pulled the field manager back and asked, "Who fell into the water? Where is it?"

"I don't know, I seem to be a student." The field manager pointed to the west: "It's over there, it fell into the reservoir."

Ji Qinghuai frowned, and said to Xie Yan: "I'll go and see, you are waiting for me here."

Xie Yan said, "Let's go together."

Ji Qinghuai and him looked at each other, and the two quickly ran to the west together.

Before they reached the place, they saw a group of people gathered outside the guardrail of the reservoir from a distance. They ran to them and saw the boy struggling in the water at a glance.

The boy's position was a little far from the shore, so he probably didn't fall by accident. Ji Qinghuai didn't think much about it, and put his hand on the railing to turn over, but was held back.

"You can't go down!"

It was an old man who held Ji Qinghuai back, and the old man explained: "It's almost half past six, and the reservoir is about to release water. At that time, the water below will flow, and anyone who goes down will be washed away together."

At 6:30 every day, the reservoir will open the gate to release water, and the water will branch into other places. Once the reservoir starts to release water, the water will surge, and anyone who goes down will be washed away together.

But Ji Qinghuai is not afraid, people will be washed away, he will not.

"Thank you for your reminder." After finishing speaking, Ji Qinghuai easily climbed over the guardrail and jumped directly.

"Hey!" The uncle exclaimed, Ji Qinghuai's movements were too fast, he didn't even stop him.

Xie Yan watched from the side, not too worried, but her gaze followed Ji Qinghuai all the time.

Ji Qinghuai fell into the water, and his body was instantly drenched. Although it was midsummer, the water in the reservoir was bitingly cold.

He looked forward, the boy was still struggling, but he might sink anytime due to exhaustion of strength, Ji Qinghuai didn't care about the cold in the water, and swam towards the boy.

The distance between the two was not close, and it would take time for Ji Qinghuai to swim over. The boy choked on several sips of water, and was about to struggle. The people on the shore watched in horror, watching the boy's head sink into the water.

Seeing this, Ji Qinghuai plunged into the water and disappeared with the boy. There was no movement on the water for a while.

The uncle shook his head regretfully.

A boy on the side burst into tears.

As soon as he cried, the water suddenly splashed, and then two heads emerged from the water. The uncle took a closer look and saw that it was the young man who jumped into the water to save others just now, and he was still holding the drowning boy in his arms.

The uncle was overjoyed, and everyone on the shore also breathed a sigh of relief, only Xie Yan noticed that something was wrong with Ji Qinghuai.

Xu Luo said that people suffering from cold poison should touch or eat cold things as little as possible in order to avoid the onset of cold poison. The water in this reservoir is running water, and normal people will feel cold when they touch it. Cool, I'm afraid Ji Qinghuai won't be able to bear it.

He was careless.

And Xie Yan's guess was right, Ji Qinghuai's body was indeed affected by the chill in the water, but now he didn't care about the discomfort on his body, and dragged the boy to the shore to swim.

At this time, the previous big brother ran back again, holding the rope in his hand. The distance between the water surface and the shore is not short. Without the rope, even if someone went down to save someone, they would not be able to get up. The big brother just went back to ask for help. and the one with the rope.

Seeing Ji Qinghuai and the others swimming over, the eldest brother wrapped one end of the rope twice around his hand, and threw the other end down. Ji Qinghuai grabbed the rope and tied it around the boy's waist.

The boy was already in a coma and needed to be treated as soon as possible. Ji Qinghuai tried to pull it a couple of times to make sure that the rope was fastened, and he raised his head and shouted, "Pull it up."

The eldest brother hurriedly pulled the rope back, and several passers-by who had been watching on the shore also came to help. The boy was light and was quickly pulled up.

The field manager untied the rope on the boy's body, and threw the rope down again, without caring about the boy's condition. Ji Qinghuai grabbed it, wrapped the rope twice around his waist, and tied the knot. Xie Yan on the shore frowned slightly. .

Ji Qinghuai's movements were obviously slower than before.

Ji Qinghuai tied the knot, grasped the rope with both hands, and shouted: "It's ok, pull it."

The field manager and passers-by pulled him up with all his strength. At the same time, the originally still water began to flow slowly, and the reservoir began to release water.

Ji Qinghuai's body was hanging in the air, watching the water flow below became more and more turbulent, and only then did he realize that what the old man said was true.

With such a rush of water, most people don't know where they will be washed away. No wonder no one dared to go into the water to save people. God's will meant that the boy should not have met them, otherwise it would have been a disaster.

Ji Qinghuai was getting closer and closer to the shore, and he would be pulled ashore soon, but at this moment, Xieyan suddenly discovered that the rope near Ji Qinghuai was about to break.

This rope was just brought over by the scene manager from the crew. At that time, he didn't pay attention to rescue people. It happened that he took a badly worn rope. After all, Ji Qinghuai is an adult, and his weight is placed there. The remaining one-third of the fracture may not be able to bear this weight.

Xie Yan was suddenly a little irritable.

Whether it's saving people or letting Ji Qinghuai and that child go ashore, it was originally a simple matter, as long as the demon power is activated, but now there are so many people on the shore, and they can't reveal their identities, so they can only go down and drag people up. Now I have to gamble on whether this rope can hold up.

Xie Yan didn't want to gamble, he didn't feel at ease, so he simply turned over from the guardrail, grabbed the guardrail with one hand, and reached out to Ji Qinghuai with the other.

Ji Qinghuai was a little surprised, obviously he was already so close to the shore, yet Xie Yan deliberately climbed over the guardrail to pull him.

Ji Qinghuai smiled, and stretched out his hand to grab Xie Yan's hand, and when he was about to grab it, he heard a "pop" in his ear.

The rope broke.

Ji Qinghuai's fingertips brushed against Xie Yan's hand and fell straight into the water.

On Xie Yan's hands, where Ji Qinghuai's fingertips touched left a chill, Xie Yan looked at Ji Qinghuai who was submerged in the water, and jumped down without hesitation.
