The Tao River crosses Fuchuan City, and the scenery on both sides of the city has been renovated. However, the riverbed in the west section has not yet been completed. There are still a few small earth bags in the middle of the river. Due to the drought in recent years, the river water is as small as a jade belt.

.

Some old people walking their dogs let go of their dogs and let the dogs run wild by the river. Suddenly, there were two young "woof" sounds, and Xia Jian was fascinated by what he saw.

Only then did I realize that on a small dirt bag not far from the bridge, a shiny black puppy was barking towards the edge of the river embankment.

It turned out that on the edge of the river embankment, there was an old man about sixty years old, holding a big black dog in his hand. The big black dog was squatting half-crouched, looking very powerful. The old man looked at the little black dog on the small soil bag.

After waving his hand, the little guy stopped barking and started playing by himself. Xia Jian was stunned by this scene.

Gradually, there were more and more people on both sides of the Tao River. The voices of people, the barking of dogs, and the sounds of children running around became one. No one paid attention to the dark clouds pressing in the sky.

Suddenly, a gust of wind mixed with the smell of earth passed through the bridge hole. Xia Jian was startled. He looked outside and saw that it was not raining, but the sky was a bit ugly. A feeling of insecurity suddenly hit his heart. Xia Jian hurriedly

stood up.

At this moment, someone shouted loudly: "Run! It's flooded."

The sound came from the top of the bridge. Xia Jian felt it was a bit far away. As soon as the sound fell, someone on both sides of the river embankment also shouted. In an instant, panicked shouts resounded on both sides of the Tao River.

Oh my God! At the west end of the Tao River, the rushing water filled the entire river bed and came roaring. When Xia Jian saw the waves, he felt that the river was only forty or fifty meters away from the west bridge of the Tao River.

The people at the bottom of the river bed ran very fast. The adults pulled the children, and the young people supported the old people. They were all in a safe zone in a blink of an eye. Xia Jian also briefly estimated the height of the wave, and it should not cover the bridge hole where he was staying.

"Woof woof woof" a miserable dog bark sounded in the empty river bed, causing people on both sides of the river bank to look in the direction of the barking dog.

A big black dog barked and ran towards the big dirt bag at the bottom of the river bed. Behind the big black dog was the old man who had just led it. The old man seemed to be running very vigorously, but his legs and feet were not good.

It's still very slow.

People on both sides of the river bank screamed horribly: "Leave the dog alone, run back, it's important to save your life."

The roaring river water, carrying silt and some downed trees, quickly came up. Thirty meters, twenty meters, it was about to fall, but the old man just caught up to the bottom of the river bed.

Once the river water comes down, this old man will definitely be washed away by the flood.

Xia Jian stayed in the bridge hole, condescendingly viewing the scene at the bottom of the river bed at a glance. The big black dog was sniffing furiously, and it seemed that the little black dog would not be found for a while. The little black dog staying on top of the big dirt bag might have been trapped.

The shouts on both sides of the river bank were so frightening that they squatted there stupidly, motionless.

The situation was very critical. The river was getting closer and closer. Xia Jian, who was on the bridge, had no time to think about it anymore. He turned over and slipped under the bridge and rushed down the river bed like flying. He knew very well where the puppy was.

Xia Jian ignored the sound of the roaring river and the screams of the people behind him. In a few short steps, Xia Jian reached the top of the big earth bag.

In desperation, he threw himself and held the puppy in his arms. In order to save time and race against the river, Xia Jian held the puppy and rolled it down the big dirt bag. The sand washed up by the river had already reached behind him.

A few meters away.

People on both sides of the river embankment were scared crazy. Their lives were about to be swallowed up by the flood. They shouted desperately, hoping that their shouts would make Xia Jian and the others escape quickly.

Danger.

At this time, Xia Jian could no longer hear any sounds from the outside world. There was only one voice in his heart: run, run!

Xia Jian held the little black dog in one hand and picked up the old man who was a little dazed with the other hand, and rushed to the shore with all his strength. The big black dog behind him, as if it understood human nature, nuzzled the old man with its mouth, causing the old man to run faster invisibly.

Spend.

Just when Xia Jian felt that he had almost exhausted all his strength, he took the old man's hand. Suddenly, he instinctively threw himself on the river embankment. The river was already rushing past his feet, and the waves were splashing.

When it reached him, Xia Jian trembled violently, and he couldn't help but wake up a lot. It turned out that he had already climbed onto the river embankment, and the little black dog in his arms was licking the back of his hand with his tongue, as if expressing gratitude.

The old man sitting next to him was panting heavily, but the big black dog disappeared behind him. Cheering people gathered around and praised Xia Jian loudly, forgetting the temporary danger.

"Hello, great hero! I am a reporter from Fuchuan Daily. I just happened to take a picture of the scene where you saved the old man. Can you tell me what you were thinking at the time? If you had been a little slower, you might have died.

No more. "A man in his thirties, with a big camera hanging on his chest, squatted beside Xia Jian, holding a pen and notebook in his hand.

Xia Jian was in shock. He had narrowly escaped death just now. How could he be in the mood to accept an interview now? He shook his head helplessly. The old man sitting next to him seemed to have just come to his senses. He didn't say anything to any reporter.

He waved his hand politely and said: "Go, go, I have to find a time for the interview. The danger is not over yet, so what are you doing!"

"Okay, Mr. Xiao, let me find another chance! Dahei was washed away by the flood just now to save you. You should be proud of Dahei, not sad. Take care!" Not only was the reporter not angry, but he also

Very respectful to the elderly.

Xia Jian finally understood. It turned out that when he came ashore, he had just touched his hand and it was the big black dog that had pushed the old man. However, this loyal big black dog was washed away by the flood.

At this time, sirens sounded from both sides of the river embankment, and the police began to evacuate the crowd. Some people began to curse, saying that the upper reaches were flooded, and the lower reaches were not notified in advance. Fortunately, no lives were lost. It was indeed a dangerous situation. Xia Jianyi

Thinking of what happened just now, my legs feel a little weak. It seems that this hero is really not that easy to be.

The river roared, and it felt like it was about to rush up to the embankment. Xia Jianqiang stood up, pushed the little black dog in his hand into the old man's arms and said: "The dog is back to you, don't do such things again in the future, you see more

"Dangerous." After Xia Jian said this, he turned around and left. It seems that he can no longer live in this bridge hole and it is time for him to find a new place.

The old man picked up the little black dog, nodded silently toward the rushing river, and then chased Xia Jian.

"Wait a minute, young man, I have something to say." The old man chased after him.

Xia Jian couldn't help but slow down, and cursed secretly in his mind, "You damn old man, you almost took my life for a dog, and you won't let me go, what else do you want to do?"

The old man stepped in front of Xia Jian and blocked his way. Then he waved and a taxi stopped. Xia Jian was not allowed to speak. The old man had already pushed Xia Jian into the taxi. Only then did Xia Jian realize that

, the old man has such strong hands.

"Beishan Yunzhong Pavilion" the old man shouted to the taxi driver, and then he kept his face straight and said nothing.

The car started running very fast, and it felt so good. Xia Jianchang was so old, but this was his first time taking a taxi. Who was this old man? Why did this reporter respect him so much, even took a taxi with him, and took a dog with him?

?And he was forced into the car. All kinds of questions suddenly popped up in Xia Jian's mind.

He couldn't help but turn aside and take a closer look at the old man sitting next to him. The old man was of medium height, with a wrinkled face and a serious expression. Although his clothes were not eye-catching, he was by no means ordinary.

"Don't look, I'm eighty-five years old this year. Hey! I'm really old. Why don't you save me just now? I wouldn't die for me," the old man suddenly said to Xia Jian,

However, Xia Jian found that when the old man said the last words, his eyes were filled with tears.

Eighty-five years old, my God, I thought he was more than sixty years old, and Mr. Xia was more than eighty years old. Compared with him, he is so old that I can’t say. What on earth does this man do?

The dog was crying. Xia Jian wanted to ask but didn't dare to say anything, so he had to make a wild guess. He took the dog with him and still loved the dog as much as his life. Well! He must be a lonely old man.

That's not right! This temperament is still a bit different. Xia Jian made several guesses about the old man's identity, but he quickly rejected them one by one.
