Qian Yushu is unforgettable, not only because he participated in the entire process of the Phoenix Bridge from the beginning to its completion, but also because he was awakened by nightmares for countless days and nights.
His health deteriorated due to continuous nightmares, and he almost died in an accident at a construction site.
He has a supernatural physique. His parents have told him since he was a child to wear jade pendants, which resemble cinnabar, dog teeth, and peach wood swords...
After I graduated from college and started working, I was so busy that I occasionally forgot about this.
On the first day of construction of the Phoenix Bridge, he forgot to wear the jade pendant that had been with him for more than 20 years. When he went to the construction site, something happened - he saw a girl with a round face climbing up the bank and crying to him, and she panicked and fell into the river.
At that time, there were green grass and willows on both sides of the river, and the water was transparent. At a glance, you could see fish playing happily among the cracks in the rocks.
Fortunately, he could swim and reacted in time, so he swam ashore wet before others could salvage him.
He also learned about the Phoenix Bridge from an old man who lived nearby and walked his dog here.
The people buried in this land are basically babies who died in infancy, abandoned babies who starved to death, children who were abducted...
Then, after a series of incidents, his colleagues mentioned that when the excavator dug out some bones, they thought they were animals.
The contractor didn't care about this. For the sake of money, he and other colleagues could only pretend not to know and continue working. The only thing they could do was to speed up the progress.
After the bridge was built, the nightmare began.
To this day, Qian Yushu can't help but pay attention to the Phoenix Bridge. He always hears that someone's child fell into the river and drowned, but the body was not found.
"Last year, two CEOs of the Phoenix Bridge Contractor both died of cancer. It only took a week from the time of examination to death."
Qian Yushu squeezed the water bottle into shape and lowered his solemn eyes:
"I heard that this area was originally planned to be a natural garden, and nothing was changed. Flowers and trees were planted.
If that's the case, it probably won't disturb the children underground."
Shang Yu had heard rumors about the Phoenix Bridge, but he didn't expect it to be true.
Although everything has its cause and effect, Shang Yu feels that people only have to bear the consequences they sow, and there is no need to feel guilty for other people.
Otherwise, people like Yu Niao have died many times due to certain obsessions.
"You did nothing wrong. Kindness is good, but don't overdo it."
Shang Yu's tone of voice was as cold as frost. Qian Yushu saw the essence through the appearance and knew that his intentions were good. He put away his sadness and screwed on the bottle cap and stood up.
"Get up quickly and take a look. Those children are walking towards the bridge."
The crowd moved to the center of the bridge. One of them, holding two girls, quickly climbed up the railing and jumped down. Without a trace of hesitation, he fell into the water and disappeared.
Shang Yu and Qian Yushu ran to the river one after another. At this time, other children jumped off the bridge one after another. The two of them lay down and watched carefully for a long time, and saw with their own eyes that the children turned into black fish.
When the fish swim to the shore, they turn into children as they climb up on all fours.
When Shang Yu saw one of the children with sharp eyes and blood on the corner of his mouth, he quickly grabbed Qian Yushu's hand and ran towards the tent.
Qian Yushu stopped and suddenly felt that the surroundings were cold and unbearable, and the stench came from nowhere.
Shang Yu stared at the shadows of him and Qian Yushu, and the strange chill disappeared. He quickly glanced back and saw that all the children had disappeared.
"We were careless and should not have gone to the river rashly."
Qian Yushu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and whispered in shock:
"If I hadn't seen them, I wouldn't have believed they were the fish."
After that, the two got into their respective tents.
After the break, Qin Ming took the lead in starting work. Qiu Ruoxi followed him to help. She thanked him again for being willing to take her in and agreed to share the tent.
Time flows so fast in this "long river" that it is impossible to catch or catch up.
In less than a few hours, the sky was dark, the night was low, and there were only a few stars.
The surface of the river was still full of water, but other than that it was completely breathless black.
Ding Zhen and others decided to continue tomorrow and forget it at night to avoid slipping and falling into the river.
Qian Yushu endured the hardship, and it was more important to complete the task as soon as possible than to be afraid.
Shang and nature will not hold him back.
Xuyuan, Lin Zeyu and Mao Xue are willing to work overtime.
Mao Xue preferred to act alone, so Mao Sui volunteered to carry bricks to the other end of the bridge.
She weighed no more than 80 kilograms, which was considered the lightest. She stepped on the railing and held the rope that tied the clay bricks, and carefully moved to the opposite side. She didn't feel any strange the whole time.
Just repeat this.
Lin Zeyu and Xu Yuan would stand upright and look up at Mao Xue from time to time to confirm that she was safe.
"How long has she been gone?"
Lin Zeyu piled the excavated limestone together. Seeing that there was no one on the bridge railing, he asked to make a wish.
"It seems to have been a while," Xu Yuan casually pulled out a sapling and threw it aside. "If I don't come over, will something happen or will it fall?"
While they were talking, Mao Xue appeared in their field of vision.
"There seems to be no problem." Xu wish said firmly.
Mao Xue noticed the gazes of Xu and Lin, returned to the original point as if nothing had happened, and skillfully tied the rope to the bricks.
As for seeing Yu Niao's sneakers under the bridge on the other side, I didn't take it seriously at all.
At the same time, inside the brightest tent.
Ding Zhen rummaged through everything, but still couldn't find the gun, and even the flashlight hidden on the roof disappeared.
Qiu Yali saw that he was reluctant to answer her words, so she kicked Ding Zhen on the back, "What are you looking for? Is there anything you can't say?"
Ding Zhen opened the door curtain and went out, looking around the area. Holding the broken parts and shells of the gun, with smoke coming from his eyes, he pulled the door curtain wildly and threw it to the ground.
"Look, what is this!
The flashlight hidden here is also missing, what a ghost!!"
Qiu Yali was shocked, covered her mouth and quickly closed the door curtain, pulled Ding Zhen over and asked in a low voice:
"What the hell is going on? Don't you always have it with you? How did it become like this?"
The boy gave Ding Zhen a coat that soiled his own clothes. Taking advantage of their absence, he took off his clothes, washed them and hung them to dry. When he collected the clothes, the gun was still there.
"No one knows I have a gun except you."
Qiu Yali shook her head nervously, "It's wrong, Yu Niao also knows it. I always feel that she is still alive."
Ding Zhen believes that Qiu Yali will definitely not do such a thing, Yu Niao? Even if she is alive, how can a living person hide away without anyone noticing?
"She should be dead. Don't think too complicatedly. I suspect that the child did it."
Qiu Yali turned a deaf ear and went to Yu Niao's tent to look through it thoroughly. When she came back, she told Ding Zhen:
"If it's not Yu Niao, then someone must have been to her tent. Something was touched inside."
Ding Zhen felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard this.
"It seems someone is trying to kill us, so we need to be more careful."
