Chapter 145 The Couple Falls into the Water
Tang Changjun and his wife pounded on the car windows, but the windows were locked and the doors wouldn't open.
Madam Tang cried, "Are we really going to die like this? Chengcheng has broken his leg again. It was Mo Qunfei, it must have been that bastard Mo Qunfei who did it. I never thought he was so vicious!"
However, she soon stopped crying, felt difficulty breathing, and water was seeping in through the gaps in the car windows and doors.
Tang Changjun calmed down instead. Before his phone could be used again, he called the fire department and asked them to come immediately. He also called Yu Xiaoluo. The water was already up to his chest. He held up his phone to Yu Xiaoluo and said, "Master, we've fallen into a trap. Please tell my son to live on."
However, Yu Xiaoluo's calm voice came from the other end, "If the talisman hadn't been lost, you definitely wouldn't have died."
Tang Changjun was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't take it to heart. He didn't believe that the talisman could save them in this situation. Could the talisman pull them out?
The water had already reached his neck, and his phone had fallen into the water. Tang Changjun smiled sadly, grabbed his wife's hand, and his wife looked at him, tears streaming down her face.
They closed their eyes; the feeling of suffocation was unbearable, and the water was about to engulf them. They could only quietly await their death.
They thought of their injured son waiting for them in the hospital, but they were about to die.
They were very unwilling to leave like this! But what could they do?
He didn't know how much time had passed, but the water level in the car not only didn't rise, it actually receded somewhat, reaching below his chest. The area where he had placed the amulet was even faintly warm. Tang Changjun opened his eyes in astonishment, witnessing this miraculous scene, and stammered incoherently, "This—this—"
At this moment, Mrs. Tang also realized that something seemed wrong and opened her eyes as well. "Old Tang, I don't feel so cold anymore."
"It was Master Yu's talisman that saved us! Now, things aren't so bad."
After reaching this conclusion, they suddenly felt less hopeless. At least they weren't submerged, their upper bodies were above water, and they were much more agile. Instead of waiting to die, they began to try to save themselves.
Tang Changjun struggled to pull out the car pillow, and then used the two hard metal tubes under the pillow to smash the top edge of the car window. After a few hits, cracks appeared on the edge.
Overjoyed, he continued smashing the car window, the cracks growing larger and larger. Then he kicked the window, and it shattered.
He first dragged his wife outside and helped her onto the roof of the car. Then he climbed out himself, and with Mrs. Tang's help, the two of them sat on the roof. The car was not submerged and floated on the water.
A moment later, they heard the alarm, and then a watercraft came towards them. Tang Changjun and his wife embraced and wept, “We’re saved, Lao Tang, that’s wonderful.”
Tang Changjun nodded. At this moment, the amulet on his chest seemed to have stopped burning. He reached out and touched it, and it had turned to ash. The same was true for the amulet on Madam Tang's body.
Madam Tang sighed, "If it weren't for Master Yu saving us, we might have been in grave danger this time."
“Alas, Master Yu saved me once before, so I now owe her two lives, no, and you too, I owe her three lives—her kindness to us is as heavy as a mountain.”
Madam Tang nodded solemnly, "Such a good girl, she can never repay the kindness she has shown us in her lifetime. Why don't we talk to Chengcheng and persuade him to pursue Master Yu? Anyway, whether he studies or not doesn't really matter, getting married is the most important thing. Otherwise, if we wait too long, we won't have another chance with such a good girl, and someone else will snatch her away."
Tang Changjun was speechless for a moment, but didn't know how to refute it. "Hey, she's so capable and beautiful, would she even look at our Chengcheng? Besides, Chengcheng has a broken leg. If she becomes disabled, she'll be even less worthy of him."
Madam Tang glared at him reproachfully, "Pah! It's just a broken bone, why are you making it out to be crippled? How can you curse your son like that?"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."
The rescue team spotted the couple from afar. They weren't afraid or nervous at all; in fact, they seemed to be chatting with great interest, which was quite rare.
Most of the survivors were either trembling all over and unable to speak properly, or they were like lost souls, blank and unwilling to say a word.
Another type is when they see rescue team members, they feel as if they have seen relatives, and they laugh or cry excitedly, or even go over to hug them.
Therefore, it is rare to see such a calm couple.
With the help of the rescue team, they boarded the speedboat. Tang Changjun politely shook hands with the rescue team members, saying, "Thank you for your hard work. Please hurry up, my son is still in the hospital. Thank you."
Uh, your son is in the hospital, and you're still so calm?
Some people recognized him as Lord Tang and exclaimed in surprise, "Lord Tang, it's you! What happened to you all?!"
Ah, no wonder he's so calm. As the city lord, he truly is a man of great courage and decisiveness.
Tang Changjun laughed and said, "Hehe, it was an accident, a complete accident. By the way, brother—can I borrow your phone for a moment?"
The rescue team member quickly took out his phone. "Lord Tang, please use this."
Tang Changqun called his secretary and told him to immediately transfer one million yuan to Yu Xiaoluo and buy several amulets from her and send them over right away. Yes, after saving several lives, one million yuan was a small sum.
I'll add it later.
The rescue team members were dumbfounded when they heard this. "Lord Tang, are you buying a talisman? Don't be fooled."
"Sigh, if it weren't for the amulet helping us this time, my husband and I might not be in good shape."
As they were talking, one of the team members pointed to the spot where the car had been floating and said, "It's sunk, it's sunk, the car has sunk."
Everyone was stunned when they saw it. Good heavens, the car had really sunk. If the car had sunk two minutes earlier, Lord Tang and his wife would have been dead.
"This is amazing!" one of the rescue team members asked excitedly. "Lord, may I ask where you bought your talisman?"
"Didn't a new metaphysics center just open? It's run by a girl named Yu Xiaoluo. She's incredibly skilled. That's her. She saved our lives."
Mrs. Tang chimed in, "Yes, yes, you can buy it there, it's very effective."
But then everyone scratched their heads, "It's just a bit expensive, it'll probably cost a million—"
"No need, no need, it shouldn't be that expensive. We're paying for it voluntarily. Master Yu didn't mention a single penny to us."
