Hiss

It hurts so much

Dying

There was a faint smell of blood in his nose and mouth. Dong Xuebin, whose eyes were darkened, tried to move his fingers - there was no response. He tried twisting his neck - but there was no response. Finally, he used all his strength to pull it off. His eyelids slowly opened a crack, and in his blurry vision was a large truck overloaded with sand and gravel. Next to it, an old man in his seventies or eighties and a beautiful woman under thirty years old were lying in a pool of blood. at every turn. Many passers-by gathered on both sides of the road, shouting something beside the bodies of the old man and woman, but there was no sound in Dong Xuebin's ears, and he could hear nothing.

The old man is dead, Aunt Xuan is dead, and I am definitely not going to survive with such a serious injury...

Looking at the sad and bloody face of his crush Qu Yunxuan, Dong Xuebin's heart hurt like a needle.

My neighbor Qu Yunxuan is a very kind woman. When she saw the old man's legs were not good at the intersection, she took the initiative to help him cross the road. However, it was a red light, but the truck driver driving next to him didn't know whether he was driving drunk or tired, and he rushed straight into the car. Dong Xuebin came over and saw Aunt Xuan in distress from a distance. He quickly ran over and tried to drag Qu Yunxuan away, but he failed to catch up and he himself died.

regret

Never been so remorseful

If Dong Xuebin had discovered that the truck was out of control a moment earlier and ran over to save people, the three of them might not have died.

But now... it's too late to say anything

Dong Xuebin's eyelids became heavier and heavier. He couldn't bear to look at Qu Yunxuan and the old man's deformed bodies after being hit by the car. He closed his eyes and waited for death to come.

boom

It was like thunder, a thunder that seemed to shatter the soul.

The next moment, Dong Xuebin's eyes flashed, and he jumped out of the endless darkness.

The strength returned to his body, and his hearing and vision were suddenly restored to their original state. Dong Xuebin was stunned for a moment, blinked and looked around in confusion, and found that he was standing perfectly still, and he was back in front of the traffic light at the intersection. , surrounded by the capital's unique long queue of cars, cars, trucks and taxis passed quickly in front of him. Under the dim street lights in the evening, passers-by were hurriedly walking.

"Uncle, let me help you cross the road."

"No, thank you, girl, you can go your way."

"My house is right across the street, so don't go around far. Come here, I'll help you."

Dong Xuebin looked over in shock as he followed the voice. Qu Yunxuan, who had a gentle smile on his face, actually appeared on the crosswalk not far away. She also saw Dong Xuebin, pursed her lips and smiled brightly, "Xiaobin just came back? Go hang out with your classmates. "Next to her was the old man who had just died. The old man glanced in Dong Xuebin's direction, and then he covered his mouth with a rickety back and coughed continuously.

"Ah, well, I just came back." Look at this, look at that, Dong Xuebin answered subconsciously, but didn't react for a long time.

what happened? Not dead? Aunt Xuan is not dead? The old man isn't dead either

Dong Xuebin blankly stretched his hand into the air and opened it, clenched his fist, and opened it. There was no blood or injury.

Was it a dream just now? No car accident? Is it all an illusion

As soon as the red light went out, the yellow light came on. After a slight pause, the green light hung on the opposite side. Pedestrians waiting for the green light at the intersection began to cross the road on the sidewalk one after another. The old man was the slowest one, walking slowly forward on a crutch, while Qu Yunxuan carefully supported the old man and crossed the road with him.

So familiar

Such a familiar picture

Suddenly, there was a loud engine noise in his ears. Dong Xuebin looked over conditionedly and saw a large truck coming from the right turn lane of the road on the left. The back was filled with sand and gravel, and there was even a bulge. Chunks. The truck was not particularly fast, at most it could not reach more than 40 or 50 steps, and it was just rumbling towards the intersection.

Dong Xuebin rubbed his eyes and was shocked. Isn't this the scene before Aunt Xuan and Aunt Xuan had a car accident

how so? Has time gone backwards? Isn't that an illusion

At the critical moment, he didn't think much and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Get out of the way of the car!"

Everyone nearby was startled and looked around quickly.

"What kind of car?"

"Where is the car?"

Qu Yunxuan saw the truck, turned to Dong Xuebin and said strangely: "What are you shouting? There is a red light over there."

The old man didn't take it seriously. The truck was on the right turning line, so the turn wouldn't hinder them.

Dong Xuebin knew that the truck that killed the three of them would not stop at all, so he ran and said in a hurry: "Aunt Xuan, get out of there, get out of here!"

Qu Yunxuan paused in her black high heels and said in a funny tone: "Xiao Bin, what's wrong with you today? Isn't that car..."

Before he finished speaking, the huge body of the truck was already pressing on the parking line, but it showed no sign of slowing down.

Under the horrified gaze of everyone, the truck rushed through the red light.

"ah"

"Run quickly"

"I'm about to hit someone."

There are screams all around

Qu Yunxuan was completely stunned, and her face became anxious. The first thing she did when she regained consciousness was to pull the old man with all her strength, "Run quickly."

"Girl, run away and leave me alone." The old man pushed Qu Yunxuan in a panic.

But it was too late, the truck was approaching.

Four meters…

Three meters…

Qu Yunxuan and the old man looked desperate

When everyone thought that the two of them were going to die on the spot, Dong Xuebin, who had long known that the truck would run through the red light, rushed behind the two of them. With the inertia of the rush, Dong Xuebin used all his strength to hug him from the left to the right. He grabbed Aunt Xuan and the old man by the waist, and continued to run forward with the same momentum. He yelled at the top of his voice, blocked the waist and threw them both out hard.

"Oh it's over"

"Dead people"

Many timid ones closed their eyes.

With a murderous roar, the truck almost brushed Dong Xuebin's back and sped away.

The old man turned half of his body and rubbed the ground and slid half a meter to the north.

Qu Yunxuan was also slapped by Dong Xuebin and flew to the ground, rolling around.

Dong Xuebin was the one who fell the hardest. He crawled sideways on the road, enduring the pain in his waist and legs and gasping for air.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and then cheers rang out in the streets

"Not dead, not dead"

“You’re doing well young man.”

"Bah bang bang." I don't know who took the lead. Passersby nearby applauded Dong Xuebin.

Squeak, the culprit's truck belatedly stepped on the brakes and stopped in the middle of the road more than ten meters away. The window glass was rolled down a little, and a drunken head poked out. After pondering for a few seconds, , the truck engine roared, and it drove away again.

"Ya ran away"

"Hurry and write down his car number"

"To the police"

The old man on the ground was helped up by the traffic coordinator who came from the opposite direction. Seeing Dong Xuebin lying there without moving, the old man hurriedly shouted: "How is the young man? How are you?"

Qu Yunxuan also covered her arms and climbed up. She didn't even bother to put on her high heels that she had dropped. She ran to Dong Xuebin in a panic with bare feet, squatted down and shook him, "Xiaobin, Xiaobin, what's wrong with you? Are you talking? Please don't scare me, okay? Wake up, oh, don't scare me." Qu Yunxuan couldn't stop her tears from flowing out, "It's my fault, I didn't listen to you and run away in advance, oh, wake up, if you have something wrong with me, How should I explain to your mother? Wake up, woo hoo."

Dong Xuebin let out a breath of fear, turned his head with difficulty and said: "I'm fine... it's just... I fell hard..."

Qu Yunxuan's arms froze, and she hugged him with tears of joy, "You scared me to death, you scared me to death."

Well, Dong Xuebin, who had never had such close contact with this beautiful neighbor, suddenly felt a little stiff.

The old man's eyes were a little red with excitement, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay."

All three of them had broken skin on their hands and legs, but fortunately they were not injured. The lights were about to change on the road here, so Dong Xuebin and the other two helped each other to the side road on the opposite side of the road.

As soon as he stood firm, the old man held Dong Xuebin's hand tremblingly and said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you, you said that we are not related and have no reason, and you still took such a big risk... What can I say? , you are still young, and you have a long road ahead. I have lived for almost eighty years, and I was just diagnosed with lung cancer a while ago. I will be alive in a few days. If you risk your life for the old man, it will be a sin on my part. But it's too big, luckily, luckily it's okay." Judging by his accent, the old man is also from the capital, and judging from his mannerisms and temperament, he is probably a scholarly old man with a high level of education.

Dong Xuebin rubbed his arms and gasped, "You're welcome."

With red eyes, Qu Yunxuan adjusted Dong Xuebin's skewed collar and moved her lips, but said nothing.

"My surname is Hu. You can just call me Grandpa Hu. Girl, boy, what do you call me?"

"I'm Dong Xuebin, her name is Qu Yunxuan."

Grandpa Hu said: "Leave me your contact information. I will come to you another day to thank you both."

Qu Yunxuan wiped the dust from Dong Xuebin's face with her hands, "You don't have to thank me. We can still stand here and talk. It's all thanks to Xiaobin."

"Thank you all, thank you all."

Unable to resist Grandpa Hu's questioning, Dong Xuebin finally thought about it, took out a ten-cent paper note from his jeans pocket, and wrote a GSM number starting with 139 on the white edge.

Soon, the traffic police came, and Qu Yunxuan and the old man recounted what had just happened.

Dong Xuebin's mind was not here at all, and his mind was filled with question marks.

The three of them were obviously hit and killed by a car. Why did they suddenly return to the scene where they were waiting for the traffic light at the intersection

If the deaths of the three of them were hallucinations, then why were the scenes in the hallucinations exactly the same as reality? The conversation between Qu Yunxuan before helping the old man cross the road, the truck's rampage, except for the change in the final result, everything is exactly the same. Is this also an illusion? But if it wasn't a hallucination or delusion, how could he explain that he suddenly returned to the previous time period

It doesn't make sense at all.

Is there really such a surreal thing in the world

Dong Xuebin thought silently in his heart: Go back, go back, go back, go back, BACK

After trying several times with no success, he smiled helplessly. How could superpowers exist
