Chapter 256: Granny Gu and the Strange Monk
Seeing the two old men struggling in the water less and less, Daohua asked hurriedly: "Is there a rope on the boat?"
A servant immediately responded, "Yes!"
Daohua said anxiously, "Go get it!"
Soon, the servant brought a bundle of ropes.
Daohua estimated the length and felt it was enough. She pulled it again and felt it was strong, so she quickly tied one end of the rope around herself.
Seeing her like this, Dong Yuanyao quickly asked, "What are you going to do?"
While tying the rope, Daohua stared at the people in the river and said, "Of course, we're saving them."
Dong Yuanyao lost her composure and grabbed Daohua's hand, saying, "You can't go. The river is so turbulent."
The rope had been tied, and Daohua interrupted Dong Yuanyao: "Don't worry, I can swim, and I have a rope tied to my body. When the time comes, you can hold me in the boat, and I won't be washed away."
After saying that, he handed the rope to the strongest servant and said, "When I catch the two old men, you pull them back quickly, okay?"
The servant was a little nervous, but nodded quickly.
Seeing him nod, Daohua directly climbed over the railing and jumped into the river with a "splash".
Dong Yuanyao couldn't help but exclaimed, and then he saw Daohua emerging from the water, and then he swam hard towards the two old men.
"You must keep the rope tight. If anything goes wrong, pull the rice flowers back quickly."
Dong Yuanyao said to the servant nervously, then thought about it and asked the other servants to hold the rope tightly and be ready to pull the rice flowers back at any time.
The river was flowing very fast, and Daohua swam hard for a long time before she finally hugged the two men's necks from behind.
When he saw the two old people's faces clearly, he was shocked: "Grandma Gu? Weird monk?"
“Save her!”
Seeing Daohua, Yun Jian, who was almost unable to hold on, suddenly brightened up his eyes and quickly pushed the old woman beside him towards Daohua.
Daohua said with difficulty: "Strange monk, please don't move. I am almost out of strength."
Gu Jian stopped moving immediately. At this moment, he also discovered that the person who saved them was actually a little kid of about ten years old.
The river was so turbulent, how could the little kid in front of them save the two adults?
Gu Jian was anxious. He glanced at his unconscious sister, gritted his teeth, and reached out to pry open the arms that were around his neck.
Sensing the strange monk's intention, Daohua immediately shouted, "Strange monk, I have a rope tied to me. As long as you don't move, the people on the boat will pull us up."
Gu Jian shook his head: "The three of us are too heavy. Once the rope breaks, we will all die!"
Rice Flower: "No, the rope is very strong!"
Gu Jian wanted to say something but was stopped by Daohua: "I say, aren't you a very aloof person? Why are you so fussy now? Listen to me, don't move, or we will definitely be pulled aboard."
Ancient Nuts really doesn't move.
First, he couldn't bear to leave his sister alone, and second, he was surprised by what Daohua said.
Gu Jian glanced at the rice flowers out of the corner of his eye.
Judging from what this little girl said, does she know him?
Why doesn't he remember?
On board.
"Daohua has rescued people, hurry up and bring them back."
As soon as Dong Yuanyao saw that Daohua had caught someone, he asked the servant to pull the rope.
"Hurry up!"
Seeing that Daohua and the other two hardly moved in the river, Dong Yuanyao urged them anxiously.
The servant was sweating profusely: "Miss Dong, the river resistance is too great, and Miss Yan has three people on her side, it's a bit difficult to pull!"
Dong Yuanyao: "What do you mean by can't pull it?"
After thinking about it, she called everyone on the deck to pull the rope, and finally, she went up to pull it herself.
Just as Daohua and the other two were slowly moving towards the boat, with a "splash", a man jumped down from the shore and swam towards Daohua and the other two at a very fast speed.
"That person is a good swimmer and swims very fast!"
The people on the boat couldn't help but exclaim.
Soon, the man swam to the side of Daohua and the other two.
Daohua glanced at the person who came and did not resist. She let him put his arms around her neck, and then used the force of the rope to swim quickly towards the boat.
A quarter of an hour later, Dong Yuanyao ordered the servant to pull Daohua and the other three onto the boat.
"Rice flower!"
At this time, Xiao Yeyang, who was rescuing people at the stern, received the news and ran over quickly. Looking at Daohua who was soaked all over, he quickly took off his outer robe and put it on her.
Seeing the anxiety, worry, dissatisfaction and anger in Xiao Yeyang's eyes, Daohua quickly said before he could speak: "I can swim, even if I fall into the river, I will be fine."
He paused and continued.
"For safety reasons, I'm tied up with ropes, so I'm sure I'll be fine."
Seeing Daohua shrinking her neck and looking at him fearfully, Xiao Yeyang endured it again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "What if the rope is not long enough or not strong enough?"
Feeling that Xiao Yeyang was really angry, Daohua swallowed and said weakly: "No, I checked it."
Xiao Yeyang held back his anger and said, "Do you know that there are always unexpected things? What if?"
Daohua was silent now. She knew that no matter what she said now, Xiao Yeyang would have something to say to her.
"Sister, wake up, wake up quickly!"
Suddenly, a very suppressed cry was heard.
Daohua turned around and found Grandma Gu lying motionless on the deck, and the strange monk looked like he was about to collapse.
"Let me take a look!"
Daohua hurried forward, checked Grandma Gu's condition, and then quickly performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on her.
Gu Jian looked on nervously, seeing Daohua pressing and squeezing Granny Gu. He wanted to reach out to stop her several times, but in the end he endured it.
About a quarter of an hour later, Granny Gu vomited several mouthfuls of water with a "wow" sound.
Seeing this, Daohua fell down on the deck exhausted, while Gu Jian hugged Grandma Gu and cried with joy.
"Grandma Gu needs to rest now. She will be uncomfortable if you hold her like this." After saying that, he looked at Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Granny Gu and Bald Gu Jian and ordered, "Take them to the cabin to rest."
Gu Jian looked at the rice flowers, then looked at Xiao Yeyang, and finally said nothing. He picked up Grandma Gu and followed the servant downstairs.
After everyone left, Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with an unfriendly expression.
Daohua knew she was going to be scolded. She rolled her eyes and quickly reached out to cover her forehead: "Oh, my head is so dizzy, am I catching a cold?"
Dong Yuanyao understood immediately after hearing this and immediately stepped forward to help her up: "You are all wet. Come on, I will take you to change clothes."
Daohua nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
Watching the two people leave, Xiao Yeyang rubbed his swollen forehead and sighed helplessly.
Afterwards, Daohua changed her clothes, but still couldn't escape Xiao Yeyang.
Looking at the girl standing obediently in front of Xiao Yeyang with her head shrunk like a rice quail, Dong Yuanyao covered her mouth and laughed secretly, walked out of the cabin and came to the deck. Only then did she remember that there was someone else.
"Where is the person who helped Daohua save others before?"
The servant immediately pointed to the riverbank and said, "There it is! The man just jumped back into the water and swam back to shore."
Dong Yuanyao looked over and saw the man climbing out of the water, then helping the old man waiting on the shore and leaving: "It's him!"
The young man who criticized the officials at the porridge stall!
