"Hey, Lao Zhang, your granddaughter is really energetic. She jumped around all the way and even had the energy to go see the stars." One of the elderly couple sitting at the same table praised his friend.
The man opposite, Lao Zhang, shook his head helplessly. "She didn't come here to travel with me at all. She clearly came here just to see these celebrities. She even had a camera in her bag, ready to take pictures of her favorite celebrities."
"So that's how it is. Haha, kids nowadays just have different interests and hobbies." The old man laughed cheerfully. He didn't criticize the little girl for being a fan. Instead, he noticed Ye Lan and Wu Heng standing nearby and asked curiously, "Why don't you two join in the fun? You don't look tired at all. It's boring to stay with a bunch of old guys like us. Come, have something to eat."
Because they were traveling together on the trip, they lent a hand and helped support the elderly who were exhausted several times, so the entire tour group had a very good impression of them.
After knowing that Wu Heng was here to look for his relatives, they all talked to him about paternity testing, fraud prevention techniques, and many other family matters and social conventions.
"Young man, don't be so sad at such a young age. Don't be discouraged if the recognition of your relatives doesn't go smoothly. Many things in this world are inherently unsolvable. It's already excellent that you can live an upright life without stealing or robbing."
Ye Lan is not someone who is good at comforting others, but it was the guidance of the elders along the way that put Wu Heng's uneasy heart at ease.
"Yeah, I know. Thank you, grandpa and grandma." The boy held the egg given to him in his hand. This was the second time he received kindness from a stranger besides the girl, and he cherished it very much.
Ye Lan was born with a shallow family background and could not quite understand the boy's thoughts, but when he saw that his emotions had calmed down, he felt relieved.
But before Wu Heng could finish eating the eggs, something happened on the filming crew.
"Oh no, oh no! A child has fallen over at Jiuqu Waterfall!" Someone rushed over and went straight to the elderly tour group. "That child has the same hat hanging around his waist as you do. He must be a relative of one of you. He also has a camera hanging around his neck and a butterfly hairpin on his head."
As soon as the man finished speaking, Lao Zhang dropped the cup of water in his hand in fright.
"Yuanyuan! That's my Yuanyuan!" The old man didn't care about anything else and ran towards the waterfall.
The tour guide rushed over after hearing the news, fearing that something more serious might happen to the old man if he went there, so he quickly followed him.
"Oh, Old Zhang has only this one granddaughter. His daughter-in-law decided not to have any more children a long time ago. If she dies, how will he live in the future?" The old man at the same table slapped his thigh, his eyes red with worry for his old friend.
Just at this moment, the sound of a bench being moved came from the side, and then the old man saw the two young men who had been traveling with him all the way stood up. The next second, the people disappeared from his sight.
"Ah, this..." He screamed in fear, almost thinking that the person who had been traveling with him before was an illusion, but the half egg left on the table was clear evidence that the two people existed.
Ye Lan and Wu Heng used the technique of shrinking the earth into an inch and arrived at the waterfall before Lao Zhang.
I saw that the wooden escalator in front of the observation deck was broken, and there were many messy footprints on the ground. It was obvious that the crowd was too excited to see the star, and the escalator collapsed, which led to the accident.
The filming crew was more than ten meters away from the observation deck, with the waterfall right in the middle. A young girl was hanging on a vine.
The vine grew out from between the two waterfalls, so it was not close to the rock wall. The staff who tried to go down to rescue her found that they could not reach the girl at all when they were halfway there.
"What should we do? If someone dies, we won't be able to explain this to our superiors!" The manager, sweating profusely, saw this and felt a cold sweat on his back. After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and dialed a number. He quickly said to the other end, "This is an emergency. Notify the people down the mountain to see if anyone is nearby."
After waiting for a few seconds, the manager's eyes lit up, and the tense expression on his face finally relaxed a little. "Okay, I'd be glad if you could send someone over. Don't worry, we'll stay at the scene and won't let anything get into trouble again."
He nodded and made repeated assurances before hanging up the phone. He then turned around and saw Ye Lan and Wu Heng standing at the edge of the observation deck, and hurried over to pull them back.
"Danger, danger! Everyone, step back. Don't come any closer. It's not safe here anymore."
Then several security guards came forward and pulled up a cordon, blocking Lao Zhang and his group outside the line.
The old man was extremely anxious and insisted on going to see his granddaughter. He cried and shouted until he could hardly breathe.
Ye Lan frowned upon seeing this, and while holding him, he injected a stream of internal energy into his back to help regulate his qi and blood.
"Don't worry, rescue will be here soon. The reason Feitian Ferry has never had any accidents is because the rescue team here is the best in the country. Please take care of yourself first." The tour guide also came over to help comfort him, fearing that once the people over there were rescued, something else would happen here.
A group of elderly people came over to comfort them.
However, just as Lao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, he heard another exclamation from the filming crew more than ten meters away.
"Oh no, the vines are going to break! Think of a solution quickly!"
What?
Upon hearing this, Lao Zhang got up on the spot, pushed open the cordon and rushed to the observation deck. Looking down, he saw an eagle flying in from nowhere, which happened to scratch the vines.
The crew had been using a drone to help monitor the girl's situation and happened to capture the vines.
"Wow, wow, grandpa, save me, I'm scared, I don't want to die, grandpa!"
The sudden situation made the girl even more frightened, and the cracks in the vines widened further as she trembled.
Old Zhang was heartbroken and almost fainted, while the manager's body was covered with cold sweat again.
"It's over, it's over. Is Feitian Ferry really going to fail here today? Is this God's will..." At this point, he had no idea what to do. He could only pray to God for protection.
Seeing that everyone was helpless and could only watch the vines break bit by bit, the girl was about to fall into the Nine-Bend Waterfall and be smashed to pieces, when she suddenly saw a young man jumping down from the observation deck.
"ah!"
There was an uproar at the scene and screams rang out again.
The manager's face turned pale and he felt that he was finished.
But then the crowd exclaimed again. He looked down from the observation deck and found that the boy was actually hanging steadily on the vine. Then he moved flexibly on the cliff wall and approached the waterfall in a few steps, closer to the girl than the rescue team members.
But then he got into trouble.
Because he had no problem crossing the waterfall alone with his physical skills, but it would be difficult if he wanted to bring another person with him.
While he was thinking, a clear sound of music suddenly came from above.
The music was not like a flute or other Western instruments, but it was melodious and moving. Every sound seemed to strike the heart, making people look in the direction of the sound. They found that it was a girl in white clothes and white pants, holding a green leaf between her fingertips and gently blowing on it against her lips.
Soon, the eagle that had just broken through the vines came back and circled around the boy.
