Over the years, in the Chunmu River section on the edge of Chun Hui Mansion, a rumor has been widely circulated in the ears of people living by the water, saying that if someone falls into the water and is in critical condition, they are very likely to encounter the Chun Mu River God. Come to the rescue.
Unlike many people who just heard a story, the man on this boat was named Li Jinlai. He knew that many of these rumors were probably true. He had already found three people who had fallen into the water for verification.
One is a drunkard who fell into the water from a flower boat, the other is a woman who accidentally fell into the water while washing rice, and the other is a child from a village outside the city who went to the riverside with his friends to play with homemade lanterns.
None of these three people knew how to swim or could not swim due to some reasons. They all must have choked and felt uncomfortable after falling into the water. However, at the moment of crisis, there was a faint blue light flowing through the water, carrying them with them. Sent to the shore to survive.
Among them, the child who fell into the water was the most bizarre. According to the child, they left the village and ran to the river beach outside the village to play. When they were setting off homemade lanterns, they saw a very delicate lantern on the river, which looked like It is carved out of wood patterns, and the candles on it have been extinguished. Compared with the thatched paper lanterns made by the children playing around, they are like phoenixes and crows.
The children immediately tried their best to get the lanterns on the river a little further away. The lanterns floated along the river, and the children kept chasing them. Finally, they reached a section of the river where the water surface was very high from the shore, and the lanterns stopped. On a section of aquatic plants, the children wanted to fish it up.
As a result, a child stepped on the raised pebbles on the shore wall stall, took his friend’s hand and leaned down to fish it out. When he grabbed the lantern, he felt a pull, which directly caused him to fall into the water. The children on the shore almost almost Taken down.
Then the child felt his feet were entangled with water plants, and they were entangled very deeply. He was already good at water, and he choked a lot of saliva. As a result, when he opened his eyes under the water, he saw an old man with long hair and bloated body. The frightened child was so frightened by the terrifying figure that he could only scratch around in panic.
At this time, a green light approached under the water, and then the bottom of the water shook. The child felt his ankles lifted and something seemed to be sitting under his butt. He surfaced directly and was sent to the shore. While crawling, I was pulled by my friends and rolled onto the shore.
The people in the children’s village, especially the elderly, firmly believe that the children must have been the water ghosts they encountered, and that the green light must have been the Chunmu River God who came to save them. Thanks to the children’s parents, On weekdays, we respect the River God.
Afterwards, these three people all thought that Chunmu Jiangshen saved them, or they themselves or their parents took them with them and brought tributes to the Jiangshen Temple to express their gratitude.
Of course, Li Jinlai didn’t just ask these three people, he also asked more people who fell into the river. Many of them were saved by luck or by boatmen who knew how to swim. People who fell into the water every year on the Chunmu River didn’t know. How many people actually claimed to have been saved by Jiang Shen was only a very small part after all.
One thing that these three people agree on is that they all saw the blue light under water in a daze, and these three people all did it when there were few people around, or at least when there was no one around who could do anything powerfully. In the presence of a helping hand.
However, the man was almost certain that the person who saved these people was not Chunmu River God, or at least not the River God himself, but a divine fish in the river.
Last autumn, Li Jin came to have a wedding banquet with the Wei family, a wealthy family in Anda County, Qinglu Prefecture, where he met relatives. He saw a wooden carp sculpture enshrined in their ancestral hall. After careful questioning, he found out that it was not a carp, but a carp. A herring, but no explanation was given as to why it was enshrined.
Later at the wine table, a closer elder of the Wei family told him a story, saying that the second master of their family encountered a strange incident more than ten or twenty years ago. After being drunk, he fell into the water and was bathed in spring water. He was rescued by a magical fish in the river, and then met an immortal in the mist on the way to play.
The elder did not say much about the details of the encounter with the Immortal, and maybe they were not clear about it. However, the story of the divine fish saving people was clearly explained. From then on, it was said that because of the Immortal’s guidance, the Wei family enshrined them in the Ancestral Hall. Got this herring statue.
Li Jinlai knew very well that the Wei family in Anda County had been going smoothly over the years and had a lot of money. After hearing this, he felt that the Wei family’s fortune must be related to this.
It happened that Li Jinlai accidentally heard about the rescue of people who fell into the water on the Chunmu River several times in Chunhui Fucheng. He immediately paid attention to it and spent a lot of time to inquire about it. He became more and more sure that Wei What Jia Na heard was true, and his mind became more and more vivid.
Li Jinlai knew that a very powerful mage had settled in Chunhui Mansion. It was said that even the high-ranking officials in the capital needed to fear this mage. Li Jinlai had gone to ask that mage for the secret of wealth and wealth before, but the mage said that he was a person who cultivated immortality. It’s impossible for people to help him.
But this time Li Jinlai visited the mage again with “sincerity”, told him about the divine fish, and begged again, the mage relented, and for the sake of “sincerity”, he gave him a spell. He also gave some detailed instructions.
So Li Jinlai, who knew how to swim, designed the scene on the river at night in the hope that the divine fish would come to rescue him.
……
“Help… Is anyone here to save me? Someone fell into the water…!”
The woman’s scream carried far across the quiet Chunmu River at night, and the man in the water was flopping hard. In fact, the man was flopping with all his strength and even drank several sips of water.
Although it is spring now, the weather is still very cold, and people are not wearing thin clothes. This man did not expect that he would be so constrained when entering the water with his clothes on, as if he had been dropped by a piece of iron.
The water in the river was also very cold. The man, who was originally quite good at water, had already drank several sips of water. His whole body was so cold that he was trembling when he spoke.
“Quick, keep shouting, quick…”
“Okay, come here, come here, come here, help me…!”
The woman yelled with all her strength, and even in the distance there were boats with lanterns hanging on them, turning their bows and heading in this direction, but they still seemed far away.
“Clatter…patter…”
The man’s hands and feet were frozen to the point of stiffness, and he struggled to paddle in the water. His clothes were as heavy as iron.
“Cough cough cough…vomit…”
He drank a few more sips of water, but after a while, the man’s spirit and physical strength could no longer hold on.
“No, I can’t… I have to go up, I, I have to go up!”
The man paddled hard and swam closer to the boat beside him, then he stretched out his hand to grab the side of the boat, but his physical strength no longer allowed him to jump to a certain height in the water, and the side of the boat was not very low, so he couldn’t catch it. From the side of the ship, you can only touch the glorious sides and bottom.
“Xiaoyu, hurry up, pull me up!”
The man in the water was so anxious that his head was already bobbing in the water. He kept waving his hands to get on the boat, but scurrying in the water again and again consumed more of his precious energy.
“Huh? Grab my hand, grab it!”
The woman on the boat also became anxious. She could see that something was wrong with the man, but she was afraid of the water. She huddled beside the boat and stretched out one hand, while the other hand held on to the side of the boat. My hand touched it several times, but it always slipped away.
“Use a boat pole, use a boat pole!”
The man became anxious, and the woman became more and more panicked. She grabbed the bamboo pole on one side and moved it for a while before she straightened it out and handed it over. However, she was almost dragged into the water by the man who consciously grabbed the life-saving straw. I was so frightened that I quickly let go of the oar.
The man who had just risen from the water fell into the water with a “plop” and choked several times. His physical strength was close to freezing point.
I want to grab the bamboo pole, but the buoyancy is not enough.
“Quick, throw some, throw some tables, stools and chairs down, I, I’m dying…”
The man was really panicked now, but he didn’t have the strength to even say a complete sentence.
The woman on the boat was more panicked than the man on the boat. After hearing this clearly, she quickly ran back to the cabin, looked around, found a stool, and moved it.
Hurrying outside to the side of the ship, I looked for Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan.com The man’s flapping in the water was much less vigorous than before, but when he saw the woman coming out with a wooden stool, he had some hope. At this moment, there was no magic fish in his mind. The wooden stool was his lifesaver. of.
“Quick, throw it to me…”
The woman quickly threw the wooden stool into the water, but…
“Boom…” There was a sound, and the wooden bench hit Li Jinlai’s forehead. His eyes turned white and he sank straight into the water.
“Ah————Mr. Li! Mr. Li————someone come and help————”
The woman on the boat was so frightened that she screamed loudly, and the sound was several levels higher than before.
The moment Li Jinlai was hit by the stool, the thought in his mind was ‘My life is at risk! ’
But not long after he sank into the water, a cyan light and shadow swam past him, and then slowly lifted him up to the surface.
The man had passed out, and the woman on the boat obviously couldn’t hold up such a man whose clothes were full of water, so there was a “bang…” and the man was thrown directly onto him amidst the explosion of water. Got the boat.
“Master Li, Master Li!”
The woman looked at the gradually subdued ripples on the water and ran to the man in panic, pushing him and patting him.
“Cough…cough cough…”
Li Jinlai spat out a few words of water. He was obviously not yet awake, but he was trembling instinctively and curling up.
Ji Yuan, Bai Qi and the old turtle in the water all looked in that direction, watching the big herring swim back after rescuing people.
“Haha, what a farce.”
Ji Yuan said lightly.
