Chapter 9
"ah!"
A sudden scream made Lin Tian and others working in the fields raise their heads.
They looked in the direction of the scream, and when they saw it, they couldn't help but take a breath.
I saw that Lin Xiaoguo ran to play in the swamp next to the field at some point. He lost his balance and fell into the swamp.
When Wang Cuijuan saw this, she was so anxious that she shouted.
"Xiaoguo!"
When everyone saw this unexpected situation, they immediately dropped what they were doing and ran towards the swamp.
This swamp in Linjia Village is notoriously dangerous.
In the past, some villagers were grazing cattle in this area. Without paying attention, the cattle wandered into the swamp. The whole cattle was submerged and disappeared. No one knew how deep it was.
No one in the village wanted to own the Lintian family's land, and the swamp was one of the reasons. It was too dangerous.
Lin Tian rushed over immediately. He saw Xiao Bao guarding the swamp, meowing in the direction of Lin Xiaoguo, looking very anxious.
Lin Tian glared at Xiaobao, quickly took off his gloves and shoes, and said nothing.
"Xiaoguo is so good, it must be a good thing you did. I will come back to you to settle the score!"
After that, he walked into the swamp and walked in the direction of Lin Xiaoguo.
Everyone was extremely anxious behind him.
"caution!"
Lin Xiaoguo was stuck in the sticky mud and kept screaming.
The child in Linjia Village grew up hearing scary rumors about the swamp, and she was extremely frightened.
Lin Tian calmly looked at Lin Xiaoguo's condition and found that the location where she fell was on the edge and not deep enough to visually detect.
He comforted her softly: "Xiaoguo, don't move. The more you struggle, the deeper you will sink. Don't be afraid, brother is here and he will save you."
Under Lin Tian's comfort, Lin Xiaoguo gradually calmed down and waited quietly for him to save her.
"Brother, Xiaoguo is not afraid."
Lin Tian put one foot deep and one foot shallow, groping for the depth of the ground, and found that the mud could only reach up to his thighs. He felt relieved.
Without much effort, he walked up to Lin Xiaoguo, grabbed her hand fiercely, and picked her up from the mud.
"Brother is here, don't be afraid."
"elder brother!"
Lin Xiaoguo cried softly, hugged Lin Tian tightly, and stayed in his arms obediently.
Lin Tian hugged Lin Xiaoguo and walked steadily to the shore step by step.
When they reached the shore, Lin Guoming quickly picked up Lin Xiaoguo. Wang Cuijuan looked at the two people who had become clay figures and was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Bai Ling looked at Lin Tian who was covered in mud and handed him a towel.
There was a smile on her lips, and she felt that Lin Tian was more handsome than usual at this time.
Wang Cuijuan wiped the mud off Lin Xiaoguo's body and couldn't help scolding her.
"You kid, why are you so naughty? How many times has mom told you about this swamp? You must not go near it! Do you remember this now?"
Lin Xiaoguo's face was like a tabby cat, and she said pitifully: "I didn't mean it, I was playing with Xiaobao just now, and I saw a strange thing over there. I thought it was a big snail, so I wanted to pick it up. Big snail
It was so slippery, it scared me.
Later, there was a loud noise in the mud pond, which startled me again, and I accidentally fell in. The mud pond is so scary... wu wu wu..."
"Oh, you silly boy!"
Lin Tian heard the conversation between the two and turned his eyes in that direction, walking towards where Lin Xiaoguo said.
There, Lin Tian found the field snail that Lin Xiaoguo was talking about.
The "field snail" looks very big, about the same size as a large snail, and is dark brown in color. If you look closely, it looks curled up into a ball.
If you don’t see it clearly, it’s not surprising to mistake it for a snail.
Lin Tian sighed and said to Lin Xiaoguo: "My sister, this is not a snail, it is a leech!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoguo shivered.
"Leech? They suck blood! I'm so scared!"
Lin Tian frowned and said to Wang Cuijuan: "Mom, hurry up and see if there are any leeches on Lin Xiaoguo. I suspect that the swamps are full of leeches. This one is so big that it can even suck a buffalo's legs thin."
Leeches are a common thing in farmland and wetlands. They hide in turbid places in the water and mud. They like to suck blood. The person being sucked blood has no feeling yet, so it is very evil.
Wang Cuijuan and Bai Ling quickly checked the mud on Lin Xiaoguo's body, looking for leeches.
"No! Thank God!"
Wang Cuijuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Guoming walked to Lin Tian's side, looked at the shiny black leech, and muttered.
"Although leeches suck blood, they are good things and can be used for medicine. If there are many of them, they can be sold to pharmacies. I heard that the price charged is very high."
Lin Tian's eyes lit up, and now he was interested in any way to get money.
Wang Cuijuan said something.
"Lin Xiaoguo, where are your shoes? Why is one shoe missing?"
Lin Xiaoguo cried sadly and said, "I fell into the mud pond."
"Hey, you kid, you only bought new shoes a few days ago. What are you going to wear if you lose them?"
Hearing Wang Cuijuan's helpless words, Lin Tian said: "It's okay, I'll go find her shoes."
He thought of what Lin Xiaoguo said just now.
There is a "pop" sound in the water, maybe it's a fish.
When he went to find Lin Xiaoguo just now, he felt a lot of strange noises under the mud, which must be fish.
It's not surprising that there are fish in the swamp. He heard that someone in the village caught fish in it before.
Maybe he can catch a fish today and try it out.
Anyway, his whole body is already covered in mud, and he doesn't care if it gets a little dirtier.
After that, he walked directly into the swamp.
"Xiaotian, what are you doing? It's dangerous! Come back quickly!"
Lin Guoming was the first to notice and yelled at him quickly.
Lin Tian waved to him without looking back, and said very calmly: "Dad, it's okay! I'll go to where Lin Xiaoguo was to look for shoes. They're not dangerous, they're very shallow."
"This kid!"
Lin Guoming could only act anxiously.
Lin Tian bent down and groped in the mud pond.
He had played fishing when he was a child, and he still had some experience in fishing.
On the surface, he was going to find shoes for Lin Xiaoguo, but in fact he wanted to catch some fish on the way. The food at home was so bad that he couldn't even see meat stars.
Looking at the turbid muddy water in front of him, Lintian concentrated, and his hearing and vision were magnified to the limit, as if not even the slightest movement in the water could escape his ears and eyes.
Lin Tian discovered yesterday that his myopia, which was originally more than 100 degrees, has become much clearer.
He guessed that he absorbed spiritual energy in the bead space, which improved his physical condition and even cured his myopia.
Not long after, Lin Tian saw fine bubbles emerging from the surrounding water, and there was slight movement in the nearby soil.
He stopped immediately, as quiet as a log.
