bridge
Li Pingan looked up when he heard the voice, his face still anxious. After seeing Sheng Lin sitting in the car, he got off the motorcycle, opened the door, and sat in the passenger seat. "Let's go to Chenjia Village."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Lin turned the car around and drove out, secretly observing Li Ping'an's expression, "What happened?"
Li Pingan stared straight ahead, not in the mood to explain to Sheng Lin. "I'll tell you later. Go faster, go faster."
Sheng Lin didn't ask any more questions, but nodded. Then he stepped on the accelerator to speed up. Li Pingan leaned back uncontrollably, but his eyes were fixed on the cars passing by.
"There are fewer and fewer cars and people on the road now." Sheng Lin recalled that in the past, no one could drive so fast on this street. Most of the time, they moved slowly, but now they don't stop at all.
Soon, the two came to the bridge that Li Ping'an had seen before. Looking at the empty bridge, Li Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it had not happened yet.
Before Li Pingan could yell, Sheng Lin rushed across the bridge without slowing down. A familiar car passed by them. Li Pingan's heart, which had just been relieved, became tense again. He shouted to Sheng Lin, "Stop that car! Don't let it get on the bridge."
Sheng Lin was a little confused by Li Ping'an's shouting, and then he reacted and saw that the white car had already arrived under the bridge and was about to go up the bridge.
Seeing the distance between the two cars getting closer and closer, Li Pingan quickly opened the car window and shouted loudly: "Stop, stop quickly." Unfortunately, the people in the car did not hear him.
Sheng Lin stepped on the accelerator and soon reached the same level as the car. Li Fang, who was sitting in the back seat, saw Li Pingan and quickly said to Wang Wei in the driver's seat, "Stop now."
Wang Wei was driving when he suddenly heard Li Fang ask him to stop. "How can we park on the bridge?"
Although Wang Wei was saying this, he still slowed down unconsciously. After all, he saw Li Pingan getting out of a car in front and walking towards them.
Seeing Wang Wei's car stopped, Li Pingan breathed a sigh of relief. As he was walking over, he saw that their eyes were becoming more and more terrified. Li Fang even stuck her head out and told Li Pingan to run away.
But this reminder was a little too late. The sound of car collisions was getting closer and closer. Looking back, he saw a bus coming from nowhere and hitting Sheng Lin's car parked on the side of the road. It swept across and was about to drag Li Pingan into the water.
"Boom!" Li Pingan looked at the increasingly blurry sky, feeling the water pouring into his mouth and nose from all directions. The long-lost feeling of suffocation came again.
Li Pingan didn't dare to bet that if he died in real life, he would be resurrected. After a short dizziness, he pulled himself together, surfaced, and took a deep breath.
Looking up, he saw only the rear end of Sheng Lin's car exposed. Thinking that he had suffered this misfortune entirely because of his own fault, Li Pingan was shocked. He quickly swam to the side of the car and dived into the water to check on Sheng Lin, but suddenly found that he was not in the driver's seat.
Li Ping'an's heart skipped a beat, wondering if she had fallen. Just as she was about to continue diving, someone patted her from behind. Li Ping'an was so scared that she almost opened her mouth. She turned around and saw that it was Sheng Lin, who had come out from nowhere.
The two of them made gestures and floated to the surface. Before Li Pingan could ask his doubts, Sheng Lin said, "It must be him. He found you. When I was hit just now, I saw the driver's seat of the bus, and there was no one inside."
"How did you get out?" Li Ping'an couldn't believe it. He actually ran out of the car by himself.
Sheng Lin's carefully crafted hairstyle was now completely stuck to his head, making him look even smaller. Hearing Li Ping'an's question, he looked up at the sky with a deep expression, "The incident in my childhood left a psychological trauma on me. I have been learning how to get out of difficult situations for more than ten years."
"I don't know how many times I've practiced falling into the water."
Okay, you have a strong sense of crisis.
Ripples appeared on the calm water surface, and a huge creature gently swayed its body in the water, quietly approaching the two people.
Li Pingan and his companion were still rowing slowly towards the river. When they looked up, they saw Li Fang and Wang Wei leaning against the railing of the bridge and waving at them. Li Pingan waved his hand to indicate that everything was fine.
Li Fang and Wang Wei became even more excited.
These two are too lively. Li Pingan thought so in her heart and said so in her mouth. After hearing her words, Sheng Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "Why do I feel something is wrong?"
"Run, run." Li Fang and the other person on top were shouting so hard that their throats were almost split. The two people in the river were still swimming slowly, and the unknown giant opened its mouth towards them.
Li Pingan and Sheng Lin suddenly realized something, turned around and saw, "Oh my God, what the hell is this?" Suddenly, the speed of the two of them picking at it increased, and their hands almost left afterimages.
But it was still no match for the speed of the giant in the river. Just when Li Ping'an thought he was going to spend another day in the belly of the aquatic creature, a long creature swam over from a distance and bumped into the big-mouthed creature.
The two creatures immediately started fighting each other. Sheng Lin stood there dumbfounded, "Is this snake here to help us?"
Li Pingan took a look and thought, isn't this just an enlarged version of the thing in the cave?
So, Li Pingan shook his head and said, "No, they probably want to kill us themselves."
"Hurry up." If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave later.
They couldn't move anymore. They didn't know when, but snakes and fish surrounded Li Pingan and his partner. Pairs of dead fish eyes stared at them. Li Pingan felt goose bumps all over his body.
Sheng Lin dived for a bit, then emerged and swallowed, "We're surrounded."
More and more fish and snakes gathered around them, not biting the two women, but surrounding them and not letting them leave.
"Do you think they will bite us if we force ourselves to swim out?" Sheng Lin said as he tentatively stretched out a hand. Immediately, several small snakes nearby bared their fangs.
Li Ping'an looked back and saw that the creature with a big mouth should be a catfish. It looked like it was doomed at this moment. Its eyes were about to pop out from being entangled by the snake. Li Ping'an was puzzled. How could this river produce so many fish and snakes?
The big snake dealt with the big fish and swam towards Li Pingan and the others.
Good news, the fish surrounding them have dispersed.
Bad news, there are more snakes.
Li Ping'an tightly gripped the dagger at his waist. Come on, if it dares to swallow her, Li Ping'an will let it taste what it feels like to have its throat pricked.
Just as Li Pingan was on full alert, a rope suddenly wrapped around her waist. Before she could react, she was pulled out of the river and onto the shore.
Everything happened so suddenly that Li Pingan was stunned. He didn't know which hero came to his aid. Just as he was watching, a girl came out from behind a tree on the shore.
He was wearing glasses, very gentle, and also an old acquaintance.
"Du Xin?" Li Ping'an never expected that the person who came to help was her.
"Let's go." Du Xin didn't take long to explain.
Li Ping'an looked back and saw that all the snakes in the river had crawled onto the shore, twisting their bodies and crawling away from the two of them. Looking at the long worms all over the ground, Li Ping'an shuddered and started running.
They chased the snakes all the way to the main road, where they gradually dispersed. Seeing this, the three of them stopped and rested on the spot. Li Pingan panted and looked at Du Xin, "Thank you, thank you."
"You're welcome."
"Now you know I won't harm you." There was a hint of complaint in Du Xin's words.
Li Ping'an pretended not to hear, and each matter was a separate matter.
Du Xin was about to say something, but suddenly shut up. Li Pingan turned around and saw a car coming. As soon as the car stopped, Li Fang and Wang Wei got out in a hurry.
"Are you injured? You almost scared us to death just now." Li Fang said, and then she pulled Li Pingan to look around.
Li Pingan felt a little embarrassed, after all, they were not very familiar with each other.
The white car continued on its way. Li Ping'an sat in the back seat, with Sheng Lin on his left and Du Xin on his right. Due to Li Fang and Wang Wei, the three of them could not say anything. They could only sit there and listen to Li Fang in the front seat.
As Li Fang spoke, her voice gradually lowered, and then she asked, "Are there ghosts in this world?" Li Fang used to firmly believe that there were no ghosts in the world, but what happened in the past two days made her begin to doubt it. It was not just ghosts, but the giant snake and big fish in the river were also scary.
"Yeah." Li Ping'an looked down at his shoes, which were still wet and covered in dust.
After hearing Li Ping'an's answer, Li Fang calmed down, turned her head to look out the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
Just when Li Pingan thought they would all arrive at Chenjia Village peacefully, Li Fang suddenly spoke up, "If the world really becomes like this, how long can we ordinary people survive?"
"Yiyi is still so young. She has never seen anything and knows nothing."
Li Fang was just talking to herself. She felt so upset that she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't say it out.
"Yes, you can definitely survive." It would be more accurate to say that Li Pingan was convincing himself rather than comforting him.
After such a delay, it was already afternoon when we arrived at Chenjia Village. Unexpectedly, the villagers had not dispersed yet and were all gathered at Aunt Lin's door. When they saw Li Ping'an get out of the car, the people who were chatting together stopped. Some of them were curious and wanted to ask something, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they were stepped on by the people next to them.
After entering the yard, there were fewer people. Aunt Lin came out of the kitchen and was a little surprised to see Du Xin and Sheng Lin. Li Pingan then reacted and quickly introduced the two to Aunt Lin briefly.
Ayan's body was still in the living room, so they had to set up a table in the yard for dinner. The sun had already set, so it wasn't that hot. Li Fang must have told Aunt Lin what happened when they came here, and Aunt Lin didn't ask anything, so they ate in silence.
