Mr. Zhen clapped his hands and said to the three of them, "What a coincidence! I own a shop that used to sell needlework and textiles. Now it's just vacant. How about we go take a look together?"
So Gu Lingze and the other two followed Mr. Zhen to the place he mentioned. After seeing the shop, they all felt that the location and size of the shop were very suitable.
Gu Lingze also knew that Mr. Zhen was doing him a favor. After all, doing this business would inevitably involve smoke and fire, and the shop would have a smell over time. If they rented it, then in the future this shop could only be rented to people doing this business.
But this shop is really good, and Gu Lingze is a straightforward person. He negotiated the price with Mr. Zhen, paid a deposit, and agreed to sign the contract in this shop tomorrow.
Originally, Zhen Juren did not charge any money. After all, he had many businesses in the county and did not rely on this small shop to make money.
But Gu Lingze insisted again and again, saying that if he didn't take the money, the three of them would have to find someone else to pay, and only then did Zhen Juren stop refusing.
The three people didn't expect that the paving problem could be solved so easily. They were in a good mood and rode the ox cart back to Donglin Village.
From a distance, they saw a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the manor. The three of them got off the ox cart. Aunt Wang from the village saw Gu Lingze and shouted at him anxiously, "Your gold fell into the water, and it was dead when we fished it out just now!"
After hearing this, Gu Lingze's head buzzed, and the next second he pushed through the crowd and rushed in like a madman.
Jinzi was lying in the bedroom closest to the door, his face was pale and his chest had stopped moving.
Gu Lingze tried his best to keep himself calm. He spread his fingertips and quickly touched Jinzi's forehead. He pinched the Huanyang Jue to try to lock his last breath, but there was still no improvement.
He tore off Jinzi's clothes, took out the pillow from under his head and placed it under his chest. He pressed Jinzi's forehead with his left hand to make his head tilt back. He then placed his right middle finger and index finger in a scissor-like shape under Jinzi's chin and lifted it up to open his airway.
Then he clasped his hands together, stretched his wrists and elbows, and pressed vertically against the outside of his chest, at a speed of nearly twice per second. After counting thirty times, Gu Lingze lifted Jinzi's chin, pinched his nose, took a deep breath, and blew air into his mouth. After two times, he continued to press.
"Jin Zi! Gu Chaoyu! Gu Chaoyu!" Gu Lingze shouted Jin Zi's name loudly, with obvious trembling in his voice.
After an unknown amount of time of CPR, Gu Lingze’s vision became blurred and the voices in his ears became increasingly distant.
Aunt Tao standing by had already cried so hard that she was out of breath and her face was pale.
"cough……"
“Ahem…”
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone suspected that there was something wrong with their ears. But then, Jinzi coughed and spit out several mouthfuls of water.
The tension in Gu Lingze's mind finally relaxed. He picked up Jin Zi with trembling hands, tears almost bursting out of his eyes.
Everyone gathered around, and Jinzi weakly called out "Brother".
Gu Lingze then felt that half of his body was numb, his limbs were weak and he couldn't even exert any strength. After all, he was almost scared to death just now.
The others thought he was going crazy when they saw him saving people in this strange way, but they didn't expect that Jinzi really came back to life. From now on, even if Gu Lingze pointed to the sky and said he was going to rain knives, they would believe it.
Zhao Chengmo came over and helped him get off the bed. Aunt Tao quickly took off the wet clothes that were stuck to Jinzi's body, wrapped him in a quilt and asked Xu Mingyan to carry him to another clean bed to lie down.
The Taoist art of physiognomy is easy to get started. As long as you memorize the matching of the five features and the lines on the palms, you can say a few words about it.
However, the Heavenly Master can use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cover his eyes and directly understand the direction of a person's current fortune. A person's face cannot represent his true fate, but his fortune can.
Gu Lingze decided to open his spiritual eyes and take a good look before going out in the future. This kind of accident must never happen again.
After a long while, Gu Lingze finally breathed evenly, but his limbs were still weak.
Gu Lingze knew that Jinzi had always been an obedient child. Although he was well taken care of now and had regained some of his mischievous nature, he would definitely not go down to the river to play in the middle of winter.
Jin Zi fell into the water and was rescued by Wu Rui.
After breakfast, the three of them followed Xu Mingyan to study until half an hour before lunch. Xu Mingyan asked them to take a rest, and Aunt Tao asked the three of them to go out and play for a while.
The three children ran out happily, but after running around in the cold winter, they found that there was nothing fun to do and they didn't dare to run too far.
Wu Rui then remembered that he had a spinning top that his father had made for him, so he asked Jinzi and Lingzi to wait for him there while he ran back to get it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wu Rui ran away, Shen Liang appeared from nowhere and reached out to grab them both.
Jinzi immediately told Lingzi to run fast, and she hugged Chenliang's legs to prevent him from moving. Chenliang didn't know where a child got so much strength, and the thing stuck to his legs couldn't be torn off.
But Lingzi was still young, and when she saw Shen Liang she was so frightened that she lost her mind and couldn't even walk.
Just as Chen Liang was about to catch Lingzi, Jinzi bit his leg hard. The other party punched him on the head in pain, and Jinzi fainted at that moment.
When Shen Liang saw Jin Zi fainted, he suddenly panicked and didn't care about anything else. He looked around hurriedly.
When Lingzi saw her brother fainted, she gritted her teeth and crawled towards home. Fortunately, she met Wu Rui halfway.
Wu Rui knew something had happened when he saw Lingzi's expression. He asked her to go home quickly to inform the adults, and then he ran quickly in the direction they had just come from.
As soon as I got there, I saw a man holding gold by the collar and walking to a deeper part of the river. When he saw someone coming, he picked up the gold and threw it into the deep water.
Wu Rui didn't care about anything else. After entering the water, he swam desperately towards the place where the gold fell into the water.
Although there was no ice on the surface of the river, the water was icy cold. Wu Rui was only a ten-year-old boy. He almost risked his life to drag the gold out of the river. When he reached the river, he fainted from exhaustion.
When Xu Mingyan, Aunt Tao and others rushed over as fast as they could, they saw two children lying on the river bank, soaking wet. They were so scared that they almost fainted.
They quickly took him home and laid him on the bed. Doctor Li arrived just in time. He put his hand under Jinzi's nose and found that he was no longer breathing. The whole family was in despair.
At this time, Gu Lingze and his friends just rushed back, and everyone knows what happened next.
After hearing what happened, Zhao Chengmo slammed his fist on the table, turned around and walked out with Brother Wu.
After arriving at the Shen family, they found the door locked tightly. Zhao Chengmo kicked the door down, and walked in with Brother Wu to find Shen Liang hiding behind the Shen family's woman and trembling.
