Chapter 153 Open Your Heart
It was almost 3 p.m. when Lin Baoer suddenly realized that the water flow of the waterfall below had slowed down a lot, which surprised and worried her.
She had never been able to swim since she was a child, and she would definitely become a landlubber immediately after going down, which was a big challenge for her.
For this reason, she also exchanged for a lifebuoy, of course, only one, because Shen Xuelan and Qinglian could swim.
Not only that, she also exchanged for a few ropes, one to tie the three of them tightly together, so that they would not be washed away by the water after going down, and the other ropes were used as ropes for climbing down, which were much thicker than the previous one.
Staring at the surging waterfall below, Lin Baoer took a deep breath and buried her head in Shen Xuelan's arms.
The rope held both her and Shen Xuelan in place very well. She was a two-year-old child, and her arms could not support her own weight, so she could only hang on Shen Xuelan and be carried down.
The three of them were washed up and down in the water, and drifted everywhere. The water made Lin Baoer unable to open her eyes, and she could only rely on instinct to hold on to Shen Xuelan's clothes.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Baoer felt a force of weightlessness coming over her. She suddenly opened her eyes, and her pupils contracted.
Oh no! The rope is going to break!
The swaying rope was worn away by the rocks beside the waterfall, and it suddenly broke when they were about to fall into the water.
"Madam!" Qinglian panicked, and screamed before falling into the water, and then there was no sound.
Shen Xuelan was the same, but she held Lin Baoer tightly from beginning to end.
The surging cold river water submerged Lin Baoer's mouth and nose, and separated the two of them. Her instinct for seeking help made her clench the rope in her hand, and her legs kept kicking.
After being choked a few more times, suddenly, her body was suddenly lifted up steadily by a force.
The remaining rationality made her open her eyes in the water, and she found that it was Shen Xuelan who put the exchanged lifebuoy on her body.
But the next second, she was horrified to find that Shen Xuelan did not go up with her, and was slowly sinking.
[No! ]
Lin Baoer: "System! Oxygen mask!"
After getting the oxygen mask, she held her breath and got out of the lifebuoy, swimming hard towards Shen Xuelan.
She couldn't swim, but she had heard of the doggy paddling style. When Shen Xuelan's face was twitching and she was about to faint, Lin Baoer put the oxygen mask on her face.
[Mother! Mother! Wake up! You must not be in any condition! Otherwise, how can I explain to Daddy! ]
The oxygen mask is not like an oxygen cylinder, and the oxygen storage capacity is small. She must get on as soon as possible.
Lin Baoer was so anxious that she was at a loss.
She didn't have the strength to drag Shen Xuelan, and she couldn't even float up by herself, let alone bring another person.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Shen Xuelan to regain consciousness, and she took the initiative to grab Lin Baoer and swam up until she surfaced.
Lying on the lifebuoy, Lin Baoer took off the oxygen mask and gasped for breath, her body drifting downstream with the current.
"Are you okay, Bao'er?" Shen Xuelan's voice was a little hoarse. She had been coughing non-stop since she surfaced. She looked fragile and frail.
Lin Bao'er shook her head.
Then she seemed to remember something and looked at the rope around her waist.
She pulled it and felt a pulling force. The rope tied to Qinglian should not be broken, but there was no trace of Qinglian.
Shen Xuelan also noticed this and swam to the shore with Lin Bao'er.
After getting ashore with difficulty, Lin Bao'er realized why Shen Xuelan almost drowned in the water just now.
The area around her waist and abdomen was stained red with blood.
"Mom, what happened to you..." Lin Bao'er pointed at her wound, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
Shen Xuelan looked down and smiled soothingly, her voice weak, "It's okay, I hit a rock when I fell."
She didn't treat the wound immediately, but just pulled the rope in her hand hard.
After a long while, she dragged Qinglian, who had already fainted, out of the water.
"Qinglian, Qinglian..." Shen Xuelan ran over.
Lin Baoer didn't follow. She exchanged a fire starter from the system mall, and then found some dead branches on the shore and lit them.
Then she exchanged some medicines for external and internal injuries. She originally wanted to exchange some cold medicines, but she was afraid that the effects of the medicines would conflict, so she gave up the idea.
In addition, there were some things for keeping warm, clothes, a baby warmer, water, a pot, a few eggs and some seaweed.
After asking Shen Xuelan to take off her wet clothes, Lin Baoer applied medicine to her seriously.
Looking at the ugly wounds on her waist and abdomen, Lin Baoer's nose was sour and her eyes were wet.
"Mom, does it hurt?" She blew carefully.
Although there are medicines to treat it, the pain is real and cannot be wiped out.
Shen Xuelan opened her half-closed eyes, smiled softly, and touched her head, "It doesn't hurt."
"Liar!"
Lin Baoer bit her lip, and after applying the medicine to Shen Xuelan, she turned around stubbornly and took the initiative to take on the task of boiling soup.
After a while, Lin Baoer stared at the boiling soup and whispered, "Don't you have anything to ask, mother?"
Shen Xuelan was stunned, looked at Lin Baoer with a complicated look, and sighed, "Since Baoer was born, I felt that you were different from ordinary children. It seemed that you could always come up with some strange things."
Lin Baoer was stunned when she heard this.
So she was exposed so early?
"Then mother, you..." Why didn't you expose me?
"But even so, what? You are still my child."
Shen Xuelan looked at Lin Baoer gently and whispered, "Even though there are many mysteries about you, mother is not curious. As long as our family is well, that's enough."
Lin Baoer's eyes were sour, and she slowly tightened the soup spoon in her hand.
"But, mother still wants to know one thing."
"Can Bao'er take out anything?"
Lin Bao'er wiped her slightly red eyes, turned around and shook her head, "Only certain parts, and they need to be exchanged for things, which can be called 'money', but it is not the money of this world. Once the money is gone, nothing can be exchanged."
"When I was born, this thing appeared in my mind. The reason why I didn't tell you, mother, was because I didn't want too many people to know about it, so as not to think I was a monster..."
She concealed part of it.
"How much money do you have now?"
Shen Xuelan asked again.
Lin Baoer pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.
This half day almost spent most of her points, even more than the last time. This was the points she had saved for several months, but she didn't expect to squander them in just half a day.
Seeing her like this, Shen Xuelan understood.
She sighed lightly, "We are safe now, Baoer doesn't have to take things out anymore."
This time she also discovered that if it weren't for Lin Baoer, they might not be able to survive today.
It seems that the things she took out must have cost a lot of money.
