"Sister-in-law, it's not that we don't want to help you save him. Everyone knows that there are water ghosts in the river. Every year, they will drag a few people down to be scapegoats. Your son was unlucky to fall into the river and become a scapegoat. If we help you, we might die too. "
"Yeah, no matter how much you thank us, it's not as important as a human life. When the time comes, you have money but you don't have the life to spend it. Wouldn't that be a waste?"
"That's right, that's right. I also heard that when someone fell into the river, another person went down to save him. In the end, the two people were dragged down by the water ghost and drowned. "
"That's why we can't interfere with the water ghost's life. Otherwise, we will die too."
"No matter how much money you give me, I won't do it!"
"…"
"…"
People in ancient times were more superstitious, especially when it came to things like ghosts and gods.
After confirming that there were water ghosts in the river, they didn't dare to go down.
Zhao Yun 'er frowned. She didn't believe in these things.
The drowning in the river was probably just a coincidence.
The river was close to the street. It was normal for people to accidentally fall in.
Zhao Yun 'er was about to jump down to save the child when Zhao Wensheng pulled her back.
"Yun 'er, let me do it!" Zhao Wensheng said.
If the girl jumped down, her body would be wet and her clothes would stick to her body. There were also men watching. It wouldn't be good if they saw it.
Men in the countryside basically knew how to swim. Zhao Wensheng was no exception. When he was young, he would jump into the pond naked. However, when he grew up and started studying, he became quieter.
"Alright then, Fifth Uncle. Be careful!"
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Seeing that someone had saved her child, the woman was immediately grateful.
"You guys are really good people!"
"Auntie, don't cry. It'll be fine." Zhao Yun 'er comforted her.
Zhao Wensheng jumped into the river and swam towards the child. Then, he pulled the child out of the river.
However, because he had been drowning in the river for too long, the child's face started to turn green. His stomach was bulging. It was obvious that he had swallowed a lot of water.
When the onlookers saw this, they started to sigh.
"Sigh, it's useless to come up now. It's obvious that he can't hold on."
"Yeah, I don't think I'll be able to keep my life."
"It's too late. The water ghost wants a scapegoat. No one can save him."
"…"
"…"
When the woman heard what the people around her said, she cried even louder. "My son, why are you so miserable? If you go, your mother will go with you."
Looking at the woman crying her heart out, Zhao Yun'er hurriedly said, "Auntie, please let me try!"
Artificial respiration could be performed after drowning, but the people of this era did not understand this. Therefore, most people would think that death was inevitable when they encountered such a situation. In fact, if they were rescued in time, they could still save their lives!
The woman had no choice but to let Zhao Yun'er give it a try. It was better than waiting in vain.
The onlookers watched curiously. They wanted to know how Zhao Yun'er would save the patient.
She was about to die. Could it be that he could pull her back from the gates of hell?
Zhao Yun'er laid the child flat. Then, she started to press on the child's chest. Then, she breathed into the child's mouth.
The onlookers were stunned by Zhao Yun'er's series of actions.
This woman must be crazy …
