Chapter 213: Escape!
Lost in direction, lost in everything.
Calm down, you must be calm!
The water flow made any swimming skills Ding Yi learned in the past invalid, and any confrontation with the water flow would be futile.
He still pulled the woman who had just rescued her and was struggling to death.
"Let go, yes, let go, I should let go!"
At that moment, Ding Yi thought of a way to protect himself, which was to let go of the woman he rescued. If it were not for the woman's drag, he would have a greater chance of survival.
But this thought was just a flash in his mind and was erased by him. As a soldier, he could not do that, nor could he have that kind of selfish behavior.
Soldiers must protect the lives and safety of the people even by their own sacrifices.
"Try it!" Ding Yi pulled the struggling woman to him, then hugged her waist tightly, and then he put the woman's head out of the water in a backstroke position.
"Don't move!"
A reminder made Ding Yi choke, but the rapids were not waves, and there were no surging water waves. Although the water surface was fast, it was flat. As long as it was maintained like this, there was still hope.
The woman quickly calmed down, although she was still panicked.
Holding a woman, Ding Yi cannot guarantee that he can breathe at all times on the water surface, but he has a good water quality, as long as he grasps the rhythm well, it is enough.
There are other floating objects on the water surface, which also flow downstream. However, Ding Yi didn't have time to catch one, mainly because there were not many large objects.
"When I reach the water-reducing area, I'm thinking of a solution." Ding Yi thought so in his heart.
It seemed that they were washed into a river, Ding Yi saw it, but he didn't know where the river was flowing.
As time went by, Ding Yi discovered that he was washed out of Qinghe County. But the good thing was that the water flow here was not so urgent, but the water flow rate was still not slow.
A large black shadow appeared in front of him, and Ding Yi turned around accidentally.
I have to try to pass, that might be Wei Yi's way of rescue.
Ding Yi saw hope, and he didn't want to go down the water. As a coastal city, most of the rivers eventually flowed to the sea. He didn't want to be washed into the sea, otherwise, there would be no rescue.
He tried to let go of one hand and swim to adjust the direction, because the distance was still far, so the adjustment at this moment should be easier.
As the water flows, the dark shadows get closer and closer, you finally see clearly that it is a big tree that falls on the water surface. It should have been washed away by the water and then falls down obliquely.
Finally, it arrived, Ding Yi took action in time and grabbed the branches of the big tree.
"Take the stud and go up."
Ding grabbed the tree trunk with one hand outside, and his other hand wanted to ensure the safety of the woman he rescued, so he could only let the woman climb up by herself.
The woman also knew that they were temporarily safe now. She grabbed the tree stud with both hands and climbed up with Ding Yi's help.
"Hurry up!" Ding Yi finally let go of his hand. He said to the woman, grabbed the tree stud with both hands and climbed up.
The woman stretched out a hand to Ding Yi and grabbed Ding Yi's arm. When Ding Yi saw this scene, he said to the woman: "Catch it, don't worry about me!"
Ding Yi said something serious, which scared the woman. She quickly shrank her hand back.
After climbing onto the tree pole, Ding Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He sat on a branch that was not stained with water, holding the branch beside him and resting.
The woman next to him clutched the tree trunk tightly with her hands and her body was trembling. He was not afraid, but because he had just come out of the water and was trembling with the cold wind outside.
Ding Yi did not take off his coat and put it on the woman. It was not because the conditions did not allow it, but because his own clothes were also soaked, so putting them on the other party was useless.
He glanced at the woman with a squinting eyes, and Ding Yi quickly retracted his eyes. It was because the woman was dressed too thin, and she was touched by water, which perfectly presented her unique female curves.
"Do you... hate me very much!" The woman suddenly plucked up the courage and asked weakly.
Ding said without looking back: "No!"
You just noticed that Ding Yi didn't even look at him, and then said, "I know, you look down on me, and I know that most people like Qianmen look down on me."
Ding Yi finally turned his head and said, "I don't look down on you. In my eyes, you, like other people suffering from disasters in Qinghe County, are all victims of disasters. I don't care what you do at all, it has nothing to do with me."
After hearing Ding Yi's words, the woman felt relieved. She was quiet for a while. Seeing Ding Yi seemingly thinking about something, she asked in a low voice: "Can you tell me what your name is?"
Ding Yi asked casually: "Is this important?"
The woman bit her teeth and didn't know how to respond.
Ding Yi saw her like that, and then said, "You just need to know that I am the People's Liberation Army. During this disaster, I have saved more people. If everyone asks me what my name is, I will be annoyed with answering."
The woman did not continue to ask Ding Yi, but said, "My name is Yang Yuling, you can call me Lingling!"
Ding Yi didn't respond. He didn't care what the woman was called at all, and he didn't care at all.
Seeing that Ding Yi had never responded, he asked him in a low voice: "What are you thinking now?"
Ding Yi replied casually: "I didn't think of anything, I was just waiting!"
Yang Yuling said: "Waiting for rescue may take a long time. It is not in the city and there seems to be no village around. I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to discover us!"
Ding Yidao: "Who said I was waiting for rescue? I was waiting for dawn. The light is not enough now, and the environment for 4 weeks is still not certain. When dawn comes, I will know what to do."
Yang Yuling said oh, then fell silent again. She found that the soldier who saved her in front of her was a little cold to her.
As time went by, even Ding Yi felt a little cold, especially when the wind blew, he was about to tremble.
He turned his head, looked at Yang Yuling, who was holding the tree trunk tightly on his hands and didn't dare to sit down, and trembled from time to time, and asked her, "Is it very cold?"
Yang Yuling looked at Ding Yi and asked, nodded, but immediately shook her head.
Ding Yi saw that she was like this and said nothing. He stood up, broke some branches with leaves on the big tree, and then blocked the direction of the wind blowing beside Yang Yuling.
