Traditional Chinese Medicine: Back to the years when educated youths went to the countryside

Chapter 177 Change For Me!
"Wang Chengzhou doesn't know how to swim. How dare he jump into the river to save people?"

This sentence came over and over in everyone's mind.

The more I think about it, the more shocked I feel.

By the end, all the hairs on my body were standing on end.

Regardless of whether they had any grudges or grudges, everyone put everything behind them and eagerly chased downstream along the Loop, with only the thought of rescuing people remaining in their minds.

Wang Honghe took the lead, his face was like a sculpture carved by a knife and an axe, without any expression, and he ran down the river desperately.

There was no sound in his ears anymore, only his own heavy breathing.

Her eyes were fixed on Yang Qiaoer floating in the river, and the palms holding her up.

The hands were already covered with yellow sand, and gradually lost the color that a living person's skin should have. Looking at them, it felt like looking at the mud tires in the temple, and the whole body felt cold.

If it hadn't always been firmly supported on the water, Wang Honghe would have collapsed immediately.

That is his son.

He's a stupid son who doesn't know how to swim, but still wants to save people!
When he thought of this, Wang Honghe's chest rose and fell more violently, and beads of salty sweat rolled into his eyes, unable to even blink.

In a short time, a pair of eyes turned red from being stung.

"Honghe, slow down!"

Wang Yutang took long strides, kicking the water in the river rumbling, but he still couldn't catch up with Wang Honghe. "That boy Chengzhou is very smart. If he was not sure, he would not jump into the river rashly to save that little girl."

"Didn't you see that he was holding her up with both hands?"

"If you chase her so hard, you might end up falling into the river before anyone can be rescued."

Whether it is water ability or physical ability, he is one of the best in the village, not something Wang Honghe can match.

But now he is left behind, which shows that he has risked his life for his son.

After hearing his words, Wang Honghe breathed a sigh of relief, but his body couldn't help but tremble, "Uncle Yutang, no matter how good that kid is, he is still a human being, not a god!"

"It's been a minute or two. He's been submerged in the water and can't breathe. Isn't he suffocating himself to death?"

"Let's hurry up, hurry up!"

The faces of the men who followed him also changed when they heard this.

Wang Honghe said it right.

In fact, even if a person who does not know how to swim falls into the water, as long as he does not panic, does not struggle in panic, knows how to relax his body, find a suitable position, and keep his mouth and nose above the water, he can survive for a long time without drowning.

People often say that a person who understands the nature of water means that he must know how to be calm and collected when in the water.

Water is both soft and strong, capable of carrying objects.

Only those who struggle wildly and are swallowed up by fear will be drowned by the flood.

However, Wang Chengzhou has been submerged in water!
A normal person can only hold his breath for about 2 minutes. Now that one minute has passed, there is not much time left for him and them.

"You guys, go find the bamboo poles!"

Wang Yutang got angry, threw off his shirt, jumped directly into the raging river, turned around and shouted:

"Don't chase him in the river, go to the river embankment."

"I'll get into the water and catch him. You guys can find a good guy and wait in front."

"In the water, I can lift two people. They hand me the bamboo poles and pull us up."

As expected of Mr. Yu, he could still remain calm under such circumstances.

After hearing his command, everyone immediately had a backbone and began to rush up the river embankment to look for bamboo poles.

But where can I find bamboo poles in a short time?
Wang Jianchun was a bit more creative, so he called a few people and started tossing the small poplar trees growing on the river embankment.

In order to fix the sand, grass and trees are usually planted on the river embankments.

However, the trees planted by the brigade are all old, and the thinnest ones are as thick as a teacup.

Growing trees are very tough and cannot be broken by one or two people.

Fortunately, when all the young and old men saw that something was going on, they all ran over to help without even thinking about fishing.

More than a dozen people pressed on and broke the little poplar tree.

They scrambled to clear away the branches and leaves. Wang Honghe, Wang Wuhe, Wang Jianchun and others carried them and ran downstream along the river embankment like crazy.

Old and young men followed behind.

Although many people are here to eat melon, more people are worried about Wang Chengzhou and Yang Qiaoer.

After all, one of them is a health worker loved by the villagers, and the other is a 15-year-old girl.

At Hua'er's age, if he drowned, the whole village would be depressed for a long time.

However, as they ran, everyone's hearts became heavier and heavier.

After all, four or five minutes have passed since Wang Chengzhou went into the water to rescue people.

In order to protect Yang Qiaoer, he stood in the river with his hands raised. He couldn't even open his eyes, let alone panting, in the river!

Most people will drown if they don't breathe for three minutes when they get into the water.

Can he... still be alive?
When Wang Yutang caught up with the two of them, Yang Qiaoer was half lying on the water. She didn't know if she felt something. She kept crying and kept shouting "Master Chengzhou", "Master Chengzhou", "Master Chengzhou" and "Master Chengzhou". "Master Chengzhou"...

And Wang Chengzhou has been standing silently in the water, stretching out his khaki arms.

Listening to the little girl's cry, Wang Yutang's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes turned red for a moment.

Holding back his grief, he hugged the two young people in their teens, grabbed the small poplar tree that stretched over with his other hand, and gritted his teeth and climbed to the shore.

Although the person was obviously rescued, there was a dead silence on the river embankment.

Looking at the figure who was dragged out and covered in mud, Li Yuzhu's legs went weak and she fell down, breaking down and crying.

Those arms that were still raised were like two needles, piercing deeply into everyone's hearts.

Even some children's eyes became wet and they started to cry.

"Brother!"

Wang Aiduo slid down the river embankment in a rolling motion, rubbing the skin on his palms until they were scratched, but he stared, unwilling to believe everything in front of him.

Wang Honghe's breath trembled, and he squatted down weakly, covering his forehead with his hands, and let out a dull cry.

At this moment, Wang Chengzhou's body suddenly moved, startling everyone.

"Am I...going ashore?"

Wang Chengzhou's eyes were red and he grinned, showing his neat white teeth.It was like a clay body coming to life, which made everyone's eyes widen.

"Wang Xiucai is not dead! Wang Xiucai is not dead!"

Xu Xiaozhi, who was unable to follow because her legs were so weak from fear, suddenly jumped up.Crystal tears splashed, but he couldn't control the joy in his heart and started shouting.

In the end, he even stood on tiptoes and spun around lightly, as if dancing.

All the villagers were stunned.

As for herself, she didn't know whether she was crying with joy or not. She sat on the ground like a duck, covered her little face and started to cry.

"Chengzhou, you kid!"

Wang Yutang's eyes were completely red, he grabbed his shoulders and slapped him hard on the back.

"My God, this is amazing!"

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, and a few superstitious guys even started to mutter, "Full 5 minutes!"

"Wang, the doctor, could not drown even after holding the water for 5 minutes. This is impossible!"

"It must be that big koi that brought him good luck, right?"

Hearing what they said, the young and old men immediately started talking excitedly: "No, didn't Wang Chengzhou catch that koi carp, and the koi carp would protect him?"

"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that when Health Nurse Wang went into the water, he released the koi in advance?"

"You're stupid! The reason why Wang Chengzhou released the koi was to save people, because he didn't want it to be in the way!"

"You're just telling me whether to let it go or not? If it were you, would you be willing to let it go? Do you dare to go into the water?"

"I, I really don't dare... This is a big river with a swollen water level. There are whirlpools everywhere. Even if you don't know how to swim, even if you know how to swim, most people don't dare to get in!"

"So, Wang Chengzhou is really not an ordinary person!"

Everyone was talking nonsense for a while.

Si Ya didn't want to listen to what they said, so she ran over as if she were flying early and threw herself into his arms.

This time, Wang Chengzhou confirmed that this little girl was not here to steal his limelight.

After all, she had snot and tears, almost flowing down her neck...

"Qiaoer!"

At this moment, Old Yang ran over with a trembling head. He bowed to Wang Chengzhou first, then grabbed Yang Qiaoer and scolded:

"You girl, why are you so disobedient!"

"I told you not to go into the river, but you just didn't listen!"

"If it weren't for Health Doctor Wang who risked his life to save you, but if your parents found out, they would have to beat you to death!"

Yang Qiaoer was in shock, and was scolded by her grandfather again. She lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes, and muttered: "I want to catch a carp..."

"You said it!"

Lao Yangtou raised his hand and frightened her so much that she shrank and did not dare to speak.Clear tears rolled down her pale face.

Wang Chengzhou frowned slightly.

But the river was in chaos right now, and many people were crowding in, so he couldn't say much.

He quickly stood up and responded to the inquiries from his grandparents, uncles, sisters-in-law and sisters.

The most important thing is to quickly comfort Li Yuzhu.

My mother was really frightened by him, and she is still wiping her tears until now.

"Mom, have you caught that big carp?"

Wang Chengzhou gritted his teeth and couldn't forget the koi.

"What are you arresting? Stop talking nonsense!"

Li Yuzhu glared at him, but held his arm firmly, "Didn't you listen to what you guys said? It's because of the blessing of that big koi that you can come back alive."

"That might be Lord Dragon. Thank you for letting him go early."

"Otherwise, after you have held Qiao'er for so long, you can still come up alive and kicking?"

Wang Chengzhou smacked his lips.

The carp transforming into a dragon is a familiar folk legend. It is not surprising that the big koi carp is so magical that it has triggered superstition among the people.

There was even a particularly famous Yue opera at that time called "Chasing Fish".

It tells the story of a carp spirit who seduces a scholar and eventually forms a good relationship.

Wang Chengzhou rolled his eyes.

He thought to himself: I don’t know whether that big koi is male or female. When will he come to repay his kindness?

Everyone started talking again.

It was obvious that although Wang Chengzhou deliberately threw the big koi out before entering the water, none of them were caught.

Moreover, after this incident, even if someone catches him in the future, he may not dare to eat him, but he will definitely let him go in the end.

Tsk, this dog carp has really inherited a lot of kindness from me.

While thinking about it in her mind, Li Yuzhu said she would not let the brother and sister fish in the river.

Such a big thing happened, which almost scared the souls of my parents. How could they continue to join in the fun?

Naturally, Yang Qiaoer also enjoyed the same treatment.

However, Lao Yangtou was very stern and had a sullen face all the way.The little girl had a soft temper. On the way back, she just glanced at him secretly and didn't even have the chance to say a word of thanks.

After arriving home, Xiaojiao directly put his fish catch into Wang Chengzhou's hands in front of Wang Jianguo.

He stared.

Although there wasn't much, just a two-pound silver carp, her behavior of eating inside and outside still made Wang Jianguo very unhappy.

Wang Chengzhou's family definitely can't have it.

But Wang Caiyun couldn't stand it. Wang Caiyun had a good idea and insisted on staying no matter what. He even glanced at his brother and said:

"You lazy boy, just keep it if I ask you to!"

"Consider it God's compensation for you."

"Besides, my eldest brother caught a lot of fish, enough for our family to eat."

"However, no matter how many fish others catch, it will never be as exciting as if you released one! They only caught a few broken fish, but you saved a life!"

"Sister, I will come to you tomorrow to handle that matter. Just have a good rest today."

After finishing speaking, he walked away.

Wang Chengzhou was undergoing a huge change, so it was naturally impossible for him to beg him to treat himself.

Even Wang Jianguo didn't have the shame to open his mouth.

It wasn't until the evening that the family completely recovered from the devastated state.

Wang Aiduo washed his face, his big eyes were still red, but there was already a smile on his little face.

I started squatting beside the washtub happily, checking today's harvest.

She caught a five-pound big grass carp herself, which was enough for the whole family to enjoy.

In addition, there were several crucian carp and silver carp and bighead carp caught by Wang Honghe. Although they were not big in size, only about a palm long, they weighed six or seven kilograms in total.

Li Yuzhu didn't catch any fish, but she scooped out more than a pound of shrimps from the bamboo basket used to hold steamed buns. People couldn't help but marvel.

Seeing a big pot full of harvest, the family finally became happy.

However, according to Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu's wishes, they could not eat all the fish by themselves. They were left with a large grass carp and more than a pound of shrimps. The six or seven pounds of small fish would be fried later, and they would have to go one family at a time. Send it to some men who went into the water to save people.

There are not many things, but the feelings that should be expressed must be expressed.

In that situation, anyone who dared to rush over and give Wang Chengzhou a hand was a benefactor now, no matter how he was before.

Just like Ma Matchmaker's man Wang Jianchun, he rushed over to help immediately.

Thinking of this, Li Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh and said with emotion:
"Again!"

"They're all men who look down but don't look up. Who doesn't bump into who?"

"Everyone is confused sometimes. You can't just look at it for a while, but you have to look at it for the rest of your life."

"The days to come are still long!"

　Don't scold, don't scold, I have tried my best to write...

　　No, I posted it as soon as I finished writing it.
