Chapter 15: A Shocking Scene
Jiang Xin calmed down and freed herself from the resistance.
She suppressed all her bad emotions.
Standing on the opposite bank of Longxi Village, looking towards the village.
She thought about it, then took out two packs of peach cakes and a piece of pork belly, weighing about two pounds, from the space.
After all, Fu Yu's parents knew when she went out today.
If I go back later, they will ask me why it took me so long to get to town.
If she had something in her hands, she could find an excuse to put them off.
He said that he went to the town to buy some food because he received some money and bills from home.
After hearing this, even though they were unhappy about her coming back late, they didn't say anything more.
Jiang Xin planned to give a portion of peach cake to Fu Yu's parents when she got home, as a payment for their accommodation for these days.
As for why, even though there were so many foods in her space that were a hundred times better than peach pastry, she only took out the most ordinary peach pastry.
It’s because nowadays, the most common thing sold in department stores is peach cakes.
Come up with something new and unusual, or you won’t be able to explain it later.
Jiang Xin looked down at the peach cake in her hand, and suddenly felt that it was a bit too stingy to carry only such a small amount of things.
So she took out another bag of apples from the space.
Prepare to go back soon and hand Taosu over to Fu Yu's parents.
The portions of these things are quite large, enough for Fu Yu’s parents to eat for a while.
After preparing everything, Jiang Xin carried the peach cakes and apples and prepared to cross the bridge.
As a result, just as she was about to reach the bridge, she vaguely felt a dark shadow not far away.
Because it was too dark, even with Jiang Xin's good eyesight, she couldn't see clearly what it was.
A sense of vigilance rose in her heart.
Jiang Xin stared at the black shadow and silently put the things in her hand back into the space.
Then, he quickly took out a sharp knife for self-defense from the space.
When people are in unfamiliar environments, they tend to become very defensive.
Besides, it was pitch dark and Jiang Xin couldn't tell whether the people on the other side were enemies or friends.
For her own safety, she should be cautious.
Jiang Xin thought, if it was some kind of ferocious animal that came over, she would kill it with one blow, and if it was edible, she would just throw it into the space and store it.
Anyway, her space is a natural big refrigerator.
The food ingredients kept in it will not go bad even if kept for eight hundred years.
If it was a human, she would beat him half to death to let him know that there would be a price to pay for coming out in the dark to scare people!
As a result, she didn't even have time to take action.
The dark shadow not far away just plunged into the river with a splash.
Jiang Xin's brain froze for a long time before she reacted.
This is not some ferocious beast, nor is it an ambush by some bad guys.
It's obvious that someone was so depressed that he jumped into the river.
Without caring about anything else, Jiang Xin casually threw the knife in her hand, which she had originally intended to use for self-defense, to the ground.
Prepare to go forward to rescue people.
This place is not far from the village.
If she ran to call for help at this moment.
I'm afraid that by the time someone calls him, the person who just jumped into the river will have already died.
Jiang Xin can swim, so at this critical moment, she was able to ensure her own safety.
Decided to go and rescue people myself.
Fortunately, she was not too panicked.
After all, I have seen many big scenes in my previous life.
My mentality is still relatively stable at this time.
This man deliberately chose to jump into the river when it was dark and no one was around.
Eighty percent of them are determined to die.
The possibility of expecting this person to save himself after jumping into the river is zero.
Therefore, Jiang Xin is extremely fast.
Dive into the stream.
This river is actually not very deep, with the maximum water depth being only about 1.8 meters.
So after Jiang Xin jumped into the river, she grabbed the person who had jumped into the river without any effort.
Jiang Xin simply and roughly grabbed the man's collar from behind.
Judging from his figure, he should be a young man.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, but he committed suicide at such a young age.
It was obvious that the man didn't want anyone to rescue him.
When Jiang Xin grabbed his collar, the man struggled violently.
"Don't save me, let me die, let me die!"
His voice was extremely hoarse, and one could tell that he had been through some tough times.
Jiang Xin was having a bit of difficulty carrying this grown man.
She was afraid that she would be out of strength by then and not only would she fail to rescue the person, but she would also lose her life.
The man refused to cooperate with her rescue.
After struggling like this, she was completely exhausted.
Jiang Xin thought about it and decided to speak up to persuade her:
"Brother, please don't take it too seriously no matter what happens."
"Life is long, and there is no problem that cannot be solved."
“Sometimes you feel like there’s a mountain ahead of you, and maybe one day the mountain will collapse on its own.”
"Only by living can there be hope! Think about it, is there no one in this world worth your nostalgia?"
Jiang Xin tried her best to persuade him, hoping that he would cooperate with her after listening to her.
Although it is June, the temperature is still quite high.
But the river water was dirty, smelly and cold. She really didn't want to continue soaking in it.
Sure enough, perhaps her persuasion had some effect. After listening to her, the man's struggling movements obviously became less intense.
Seeing this, Jiang Xin took the opportunity to grab the man's hands and dragged him ashore.
The man didn't struggle in the river for long, so he was not seriously injured and was still conscious.
After being rescued by Jiang Xin, he just lay on the ground motionless.
It's hard to understand.
Jiang Xin wanted to leave, but after seeing the man's condition, she became a little worried.
She was afraid that after she left, the man would continue to jump into the river.
It's pitch dark in here, but it's a life after all.
Jiang Xin thought about it, then sat next to the man and chatted with him, which could be considered a kind of enlightenment.
At first, the man ignored Jiang Xin at all. Jiang Xin said ten sentences but he didn't reply a single one.
Later, Jiang Xin talked for a long time, and perhaps because he was annoyed by Jiang Xin's talkativeness, the man finally started to respond.
But the replies were always brief.
After some polite conversation.
Jiang Xin finally understood the situation at this man's home.
He has elderly parents and young children to take care of. His father died early, and he was raised by his elderly mother alone.
At the beginning of this year, my elderly mother was diagnosed with a serious illness, and we emptied our family savings to pay for her treatment.
