At this time, Qiao Liang suddenly saw a small sandbar exposed in the middle of the river in front of him. He felt happy and regained his strength to swim towards the sandbar.
After finally swimming to the sandbank, Qiao Liang pulled Lu Qian up and put her on the sand. Suddenly, she lost all strength and collapsed on the sand, gasping for air.
Then, Qiao Liang saw Lu Qian lying motionless on the sand, her eyes closed tightly, and her heart tightened, "Oh no, this is not good."
Qiao Liang struggled to get up, and then gave Lu Qian artificial respiration...
After a long time, Lu Qian spat out a large mouthful of water, then moved her body and slowly opened her eyes.
Qiao Liang breathed a sigh of relief and lost all strength. He leaned back and lay on the sand with his legs spread out.
The sun was a little dazzling, and Qiao Liang closed his eyes tiredly.
After a while, Qiao Liang opened his eyes, and Lu Qian was sitting next to him, looking directly at him.
At this time, Lu Qian had wet clothes clinging to her body, her hair was messy, her face was pale, and she had a frightened look on her face.
Although Lu Qian is a police officer, she is a woman after all, and she is still very frightened at this time.
Qiao Liang slowly sat up and looked at Lu Qian blankly, feeling terrified in his heart. Fortunately, there was this sandbank, otherwise once his strength was exhausted, both of them would flee the river.
"Qiao Liang, you saved me." Lu Qian murmured.
"I didn't save you, it was this small sandbank that saved us." Qiao Liang also murmured, looking at the sandbank, it was indeed very small and could only accommodate a few people. It was more like a sand dune than a sandbank.
"Even so, you still saved me." Lu Qian said stubbornly, with deep gratitude and emotion in her eyes.
Qiao Liang was silent for a moment, looking down at his feet: "We are not out of danger yet."
"What?" Lu Qian said.
Qiao Liang then stood up: "The river is rising. At this speed, the sand dunes will soon be submerged."
"Ah -" Lu Qian looked down and saw that the river was indeed rising, and it was almost reaching her.
Lu Qian then stood up and subconsciously reached for her cell phone in her pocket, but failed to find it and was washed away by the river.
"Even if you have a mobile phone, it's useless. It must be wet and cannot be used." Qiao Liang then touched his pocket and found that his mobile phone was gone.
Lu Qian looked at Qiao Liang: "What should I do?"
At this time, Lu Qian subconsciously became dependent on Qiao Liang and regarded him as her backbone.
This is the nature of women.
Qiao Liang looked at the vast river surface, then looked at Lu Qian: "How is your water quality?"
"Average, very average, just a few dog scratches." Lu Qian said.
Qiao Liang frowned. Not to mention that Lu Qian only knew how to paddle. Even though she was good at water, given their current exhausted state, once the river flooded the sand dunes, they would not be able to swim to the shore.
"Didn't you learn to swim properly when you were studying in the police academy?" Qiao Liang said.
"I, I..." Lu Qian was a little embarrassed.
Qiao Liang sighed: "Actually, even with my water quality, I can't swim to the shore now that I have exhausted all my strength."
"What should we do?" Lu Qian was a little nervous.
Qiao Liang looked down and saw that the river was continuing to rise and had already reached their calves.
Qiao Liang looked at Lu Qian: "Lu Qian, are you afraid of death?"
"Afraid." Lu Qian said.
Qiao Liang murmured: "You are a policeman, you shouldn't say that."
Lu Qian said: "Although I am a policeman, I am also a human being. As long as I am a human being, I am afraid of death."
"Actually, I am also afraid of death." Qiao Liang nodded, "But, although we are all afraid of death, we may not be able to escape today. Maybe today next year will be our memorial day, and maybe we will see Lin in heaven soon.
Sister..."
"Qiao Liang, I don't want to die, I don't want to die..." Lu Qian hugged Qiao Liang's neck and cried.
At this moment, Lu Qian completely restored her true nature as a woman.
Qiao Liang patted Lu Qian on the back: "Don't cry, you are a policeman. It will be embarrassing for others to see you crying like this."
"There is no one else here but you. It's not shameful for me to cry in front of you." Lu Qian continued to cry with her arms around Qiao Liang's neck.
Qiao Liang sighed in his heart, although Lu Qian was majestic and majestic in normal times and could always scare him, but at this time, in front of him, she was indeed a woman, a little woman.
Then Lu Qian sobbed and said, "Since I can't escape today, I'll admit it. At least I'll be with you. I won't be lonely in heaven..."
Hearing Lu Qian's words, Qiao Liang wanted to cry and laugh, and was moved at the same time.
While Qiao Liang continued to comfort Lu Qian, he raised his eyes to look downstream and suddenly became energetic.
"Lu Qian, look—" Qiao Liang shouted.
Lu Qian sent Qiao Liang away, and Qiao Liang pointed downstream: "Look over there."
Lu Qian looked in the direction of Qiao Liang's finger and saw a small boat floating on the river in the distance.
"We are saved." Qiao Liang said.
Lu Qian regained her energy and wiped her tears: "God, there is no end to the road."
By this time, the water in the river had reached their knees, and the current was so fast that they were a little unsteady on their feet.
Qiao Liang said: "Lu Qian, let's go downstream together, I'll hold you, don't panic..."
Lu Qian nodded: "Well, I'm not panicking."
Even so, Lu Qian was still afraid of facing the mighty torrent.
Then the two of them went downstream, Lu Qian tightly grasped Qiao Liang's clothes with one hand, and Qiao Liang held Lu Qian with the other hand and struggled downstream with the other hand.
After a while, Lu Qian couldn't hold on anymore, so Qiao Liang simply supported Lu Qian's body and tried to get closer to the boat, shouting for help while swimming.
The people on the boat heard the cry for help, and then rushed to their direction...
Qiao Liang and Lu Qian were finally saved, and they had a narrow brush with death.
After landing, they went to the boatman's house, and the kind-hearted boatman found a pair of clean clothes for them to change into.
When Qiao Liang asked the boatman, he found out that the place where they were rescued was more than 10 kilometers away from where they fell into the water. He didn't expect that they had drifted so far down.
We ate something at the boatman's house and changed into dry clothes. Before leaving, Qiao Liang and Lu Qian thanked the boatman profusely and offered to pay him heavily.
The boatman waved his hand and said calmly: "I didn't save you for any reward. Over the years, I have rescued no less than a dozen people in the river, including the child of a big boss. The big boss just waved his hand and wanted to give me a reward."
Millions, if I wanted to be rich, I would already be a millionaire.
The lives of the two of you are extremely precious to you, but to me, it is just a trivial effort, so you don’t need to do anything more. Judging from your demeanor and words, you look like people of status, either rich or noble. If you are rich,
People, then do more good deeds for all sentient beings. If you are in the officialdom, then be an upright official and keep the common people in your heart. I will not save you once in vain..."
Qiao Liang and Lu Qian were deeply moved by the boatman's words. In the eyes of many people, he was just a humble boatman, but what he said was so simple and noble. This realm was beyond the reach of many so-called noble people.
After saying goodbye to the boatman, Qiao Liang and Lu Qian stopped a car on the road and returned to the city. They first went to buy a mobile phone and reissue the card, then found a teahouse to sit down and ordered a pot of tea.
After experiencing this cycle of life and death, both Qiao Liang and Lu Qian felt scared, deeply scared.
Lu Qian was extremely grateful to Qiao Liang. Without Qiao Liang, she would have died in the river today.
Qiao Liang lit a cigarette and took a deep breath: "What happened today was obviously planned by someone. I guess the main target is against you."
