Chapter 6 - Thousand Miles

"What a pity..."

  Lin Qingshan smacked his lips. The manuscript fee would not be paid until next month, so he still had no money to eat this month.

  After all, the only cash the original owner had was used to rent a house and buy painting tools.

  Before this, he had been hungry for more than ten days. If the landlord's daughter had not kindly given him five loaves of bread more than ten days ago, he would have been hungry for more than a month and would have starved to death by now.

  No...

  Wouldn't it be better to starve to death?

  If he starved to death, he could go home.

  Lin Qingshan suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known, he would not have accepted the five loaves of bread.

  He ran here today, and naturally planned to walk back slowly.

  At this moment, a cry of surprise came from not far away.

  "A puppy fell into the water!"

  "This puppy is so pitiful."

  "Is there anyone who can swim? Go down and save it!"

  "Don't be silly, go down to the river to save people for a dog? What if there is danger?"

  ...

  At the riverside, many people who were watching gathered together.

  Lin Qingshan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he shouted, "I'll do it!"

  Then he quickly rushed into the crowd, and everyone was startled and made way.

  Then, Lin Qingshan jumped up and jumped into the fast-flowing and cold river.

  Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect someone to be so brave that he would jump into the river for a puppy!

  And he didn't even take off his clothes or shoes before jumping in.

  The girls next to him were very excited. Finally, someone was willing to stand up.

  But...

  "He didn't even know where the puppy was and jumped in. Will he get into trouble?"

  "Ah... It shouldn't be, right?"

  "No!" At this time, the leading girl said calmly, "He is in danger now. The water is too fast. We have to help him."

  "But... Qianli, how can we help?" The other girls hesitated and asked.

  "Go find a stick and go to the river to pull him up." The girl named Qianli said.

  At this time, in the river, Lin Qingshan barely opened his eyes in the turbulent, cold and turbid water, and saw the struggling puppy in front of him.

  He couldn't see clearly, after all, the turbid water made it difficult for him to open his eyes. He

  could only see a yellow thing about 20 to 30 meters to the right.

  Lin Qingshan took a deep breath, raised his head and left the water, and then he was sure that it was indeed a puppy.

  It was indeed a puppy, orange-yellow in color, and should be less than three or four months old. No wonder it couldn't swim and could only struggle there.

  His eyes suddenly lit up and he swam forward quickly.

  When he came to the yellow puppy, Lin Qingshan grabbed it. At this time, the puppy seemed to be scared.

  It opened its mouth as if it was going to bite Lin Qingshan.

  Lin Qingshan was suddenly happy. It seemed that the mortality rate of rabies was very high. Wouldn't he be dead if he was bitten? !

  However, the puppy seemed to feel that Lin Qingshan had no ill will towards it, and did not bite him, but gently bit his arm.

  Lin Qingshan felt the warmth on his hand without any pain, and suddenly felt a little regretful.

  But now let's save the puppy first, after all, it is also a life.

  Then he drowned here, so that he could not only save a life, but also return home as he wished.

  Great!

  Today is a good day!

  Lin Qingshan swam to the shore with the puppy in his arms. He planned to throw the puppy ashore, and then he would sink to the bottom of the river and drown.

  However, a group of people gathered on the shore at this time.

  A group of... girls.

  They didn't look very old, in their early twenties.

  They were so young and beautiful.     Lin Qingshan sighed in his heart.

  But it was just right. If he gave the puppy to them, his mission would be completed.

  "Quick! Hurry up and grab this stick and come up." A beautiful girl in the lead suddenly took out a slender branch and stretched it out to him.

  Lin Qingshan was stunned for a moment.

  "No, you guys save the puppy first." He directly held the puppy in his arms with one hand and stretched it out to the girl.

  The girl hesitated for a moment, but still took the puppy that Lin Qingshan brought over.

  Lin Qingshan saw that the puppy was saved, and then nodded with satisfaction. The next moment he gave up swimming and slowly sank to the bottom of the river.

  "Not good!" The other girls panicked, "He has no strength! Save him!"

  The girl in the lead also panicked and stretched out the branch in her hand, "Quick! Grab the stick, we will pull you up!"

  However, Lin Qingshan did not respond to her at all and sank directly to the bottom of the river.

  Suddenly, everyone panicked. The

  rescued puppy seemed to know that it was Lin Qingshan who saved it, and Lin Qingshan was in danger, so it also barked anxiously.

  "Quick! Grab the stick!"

  The girl was still thinking about saving Lin Qingshan. Seeing Lin Qingshan drifting away from her with the water, she immediately gave the puppy to the girl behind her. She stretched out the stick, trying to touch Lin Qingshan and pull him up.

  However, at this time, her feet slipped.

  "Ah!" With a cry of surprise, the sound of falling into the water followed.

  "Ah! Qianli also fell into the water!" The other girls screamed and shouted loudly.

  "Is there anyone! Someone fell into the water! Help us!" The girls were so anxious that they almost cried and shouted loudly.

  But it seemed that there was no one who was good at swimming nearby, and everyone was discouraged.

  After all, if you are not careful, even people who are good at swimming may lose money.

  In this situation, who dares to go into the water to save people...

  Time passed slowly, and the situation became more and more critical.

  However, at this moment...

  "Huh!"

  "Pah!"

  The man's heavy breathing and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

  The girls looked back and found that it was Lin Qingshan who had just "drowned" and had brought the girl who fell into the water to the shore.

  Gu Qianli spit out the water that had choked him in his trachea, and looked at the young man with a strange look in his eyes. Didn't

  this person...didn't he drown just now?

  Lin Qingshan put her down and said, "It was a close call. Are you okay... Well, it seems that you are okay. Fortunately, you are okay."

  He saw that the girl was drowning to save him. If she drowned because of him, wouldn't it be very unlucky?

  Although he wanted to die, he didn't want to cause a girl's death because of his own reasons.

  The key is that this girl is so beautiful... Well, she is the same as the editor lady, both are beautiful young ladies. She

  has a good figure.

  It's a pity to die in such a muddle.

  So he gave up the idea of ​​drowning and swam over to save this young lady.

  "I'm fine... Thank you..."

  Although

  he felt very strange, Gu Qianli still thanked Lin Qingshan.

  "Qianli!"

  At this time, the other girls came to Gu Qianli excitedly and shouted excitedly.

  One of the girls came over with the puppy in her arms.

  "I'm fine... Don't worry, everyone." Gu Qianli immediately comforted his companions.
