Chapter 128 Hiss, She's Wearing Purple (4000 words)
This is a relatively large rest area with a lot of food.

In order to save time, Jiang Hao and his three companions found a snack bar.

The location of this store is relatively remote and there are not many people.

Looking at the snacks on the menu, Jiang Hao said to Qu Xiaoting and the others.

"You guys can order whatever you want, it's my treat."

After hearing this, Qu Xiaoting looked at Jiang Hao and smiled:
"Xiao Hao, I'm the oldest among you. How can I let a young man like you pay? Auntie will treat you to this meal."

After finishing speaking, he turned to An Ning and said:
"Xiao Ning, just order whatever you want. Don't be polite with your aunt."

An Ning did not answer Qu Xiaoting immediately, but looked at Jiang Hao.

Obviously, this is waiting for Jiang Hao to make a decision.

A meal doesn't cost much.

Jiang Hao didn't necessarily rush to pay for the meal.

He nodded to An Ning, and then said to Qu Xiaoting:

"Thank you, Aunt Qu."

After hearing this, Qu Xiaoting glared at Jiang Hao:
"Why are you being so polite to Auntie? It's too formal."

Jiang Hao always felt that Qu Xiaoting had something else in her words.

But he didn't think much about it, nor did he say much.

After picking up the menu and reading it, he said to the waiter beside him:

"Beauty, give me some hot and sour noodles and jelly!"

The waiter nodded, wrote it down, and then asked Qu Xiaoting and the other two standing nearby.

Qu Xiaoting ordered a plate of mutton soup with steamed buns.

Su Anan ordered a plate of fried rice and An Ning ordered a plate of fried rice noodles.

In the free time while waiting for the meal.

Qu Xiaoting said to Jiang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, you're pairing this spicy and sour noodle with jelly. Aren't you afraid of having diarrhea after eating this combination? This is really a test of your stomach's tolerance."

An Ning echoed:
"Fortunately, the jelly was not taken directly from the refrigerator, otherwise it might have been cooked, hehe."

Su Anan laughed:
"An An, don't forget, we will go rafting later. The river water is very cold. If Brother Hao accidentally drinks the river water, who knows, something might happen to him, hehe."

Listening to the three people's jokes.

Jiang Hao patted his belly and said confidently:
"If you can't even bear this, then you are not a qualified Sichuanese. Besides, we are rafting, and the river is so wide. If we really want to do something, can't we just solve it on the spot? It's not a big deal!"

As soon as these words came out, Qu Xiaoting almost choked on the water in her mouth and looked at Jiang Hao speechlessly:

"Xiao Hao, you are really annoying. You solved the problem right away. You are really a talent!"

Just as the four of them were joking and chatting, the snacks arrived.

More than twenty minutes later.

After eating their snacks, the four of them prepared to continue rafting.

But the weather seemed to have changed at this time.

Dark clouds appeared in the sky which was originally sunny.

It looks like it's going to rain heavily.

Jiang Hao looked up and said to Qu Xiaoting beside him:
"Aunt Qu, the weather is a bit strange. There are dark clouds all of a sudden. Is it going to rain heavily?"

Qu Xiaoting looked up at the sky and frowned slightly:
"It does sound like heavy rain, but it won't rain for a while. What if it doesn't rain at all? It's hard to say for sure."

Jiang Hao nodded:

"Even if it really rains, we have to go to the end point. Only at the end point are there cars to take tourists to the rafting starting point. There are no cars to pick us up halfway. It takes at least one or two hours to walk there, and most of the roads are mountainous and difficult to walk on."

Qu Xiaoting thought for a moment, and said to Su Anan and An Ning behind Jiang Hao:
"Just in case, it would be safer for us to drift to the end point earlier."

A few people got on the kayak and continued to drift downstream.

The water flow in the lower reaches of the river is relatively turbulent and there are many bends, so the excitement of rafting is very high.

of course.

The danger also increases.

This is not.

At a bend in the river.

Su Anan was not careful and was thrown out of the kayak, and was quickly swept downstream by the river.

Qu Xiaoting and An Ning hurriedly shouted to Jiang Hao in front of them:
"Xiao Hao, An An fell into the water, go and get her."

I heard a cry for help behind me.

Jiang Hao looked back.

Su Anan, who fell into the water, was struggling in the water. It seemed that she was drinking the river water.

"Well, I have to be a lifeguard again."

Jiang Hao sighed in his heart and jumped into the water, quickly approaching Su Anan.

With the previous experience of rescuing Qu Xiaoting.

Jiang Hao quickly pulled Su Anan into his arms

With the help of An Ning and Qu Xiaoting, the three of them worked together to rescue Su Anan onto the kayak.

Looking at Su Anan who was lying in the kayak and breathing heavily, Qu Xiaoting asked with concern:
"An An, how are you? Are you hurt?"

Su Anan shook her head, wiped the river water off her face, and said to Qu Xiaoting:

"Mom, I'm fine. I just drank a lot of river water. Fortunately, Xiao Hao pulled me up in time, otherwise my stomach would not be able to hold it. It was so difficult for me."

Jiang Hao patted Su Anan's shoulder gently and smiled:
"You better hold on tight and don't fall down again, or you'll have to drink the icy cold river water again, haha."

After teasing Su Anan for a few words, the drifting continued.

With the previous experience of Qu Xiaoting and Su Anan.

Everyone held on to the kayaks tightly.

In addition, the weight of the four people is not light.

No one fell out of the drift behind.

It's just that the dark clouds in the sky are getting denser and denser.

A few raindrops hit An Ning's face.

An Ning originally thought that it was water splashing from the river and didn't pay much attention to it.

But as the raindrops increased.

An Ning looked up and found that it was raining.

They both shouted to Jiang Hao:

"Brother Hao, it's raining."

Jiang Hao also noticed this.

Looking at the dark clouds in the sky that were getting thicker and thicker, he turned back and nodded to An Ning:

"It is indeed raining. Judging from the situation, the rain will probably get heavier."

Qu Xiaoting and Su Anan also noticed that it was raining.

“It’s really raining.”

Qu Xiaoting also noticed another situation and quickly said to Jiang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, have you noticed that the river water seems to be a little more turbid than before?"

After hearing Qu Xiaoting's reminder, Jiang Hao lowered his head and took a closer look.

He found that the river water was indeed a little more turbid than before, but you couldn't tell if you didn't look carefully.

Su Anan asked Jiang Hao and Qu Xiaoting curiously:
"Why did the river water suddenly become turbid?"

Qu Xiaoting and Jiang Hao looked at each other, and they immediately understood what was going on. At the same time, they said to Su Anan:

"It should be a flash flood caused by heavy rain upstream." After hearing what Jiang Hao and Qu Xiaoting said, Su Anan's expression changed:
"Ah, there's a flash flood due to heavy rain upstream? Aren't we in danger then?"

After hearing this, An Ning asked Jiang Hao nervously:
"Brother Hao, if there really is a flash flood upstream, then don't we have to hurry up and drift to the end point?"

Jiang Hao nodded.

Look up at the sky upstream.

I saw that the sky upstream was covered with dark clouds. Judging from the situation, it should be raining heavily, or even a rainstorm.

If not.

It's impossible for the river water downstream to become turbid so quickly.

Unless it is caused by a sudden increase in water flow upstream.

It would be really dangerous if you don't rush to the end point or go ashore immediately before the river floods.

Jiang Hao quickly said to Qu Xiaoting:

"Aunt Qu, just in case, we should go ashore immediately. If a flash flood suddenly hits, we will be doomed."

Jiang Hao just finished speaking.

The safety officer on the shore suddenly used a loud speaker to shout to the people drifting in the river:
"Dear passengers, please note that a sudden torrential rain upstream has caused a flash flood. For your safety, please quickly find a calm lake to stop drifting and go ashore. Please quickly go ashore..."

After hearing the reminder from the shore safety officer, Jiang Hao and the other three became nervous:
"It's really raining heavily upstream. We can't continue drifting. We must go ashore immediately."

Jiang Hao looked up.

Pointing to the signboard with "Rest Area Ahead" not far away, he said to Qu Xiaoting, Su Anan and An Ning:
"There's a rest area ahead. Let's hurry over there and get ashore from there."

Qu Xiaoting and the other two were a little panicked at this time. It was a matter of their lives, so it would be a lie to say they were not panicked.

The three of them nodded quickly:

"Okay, let's go ashore from the rest area."

A few minutes later.

The kayak entered a small, gentle lake.

The four of them quickly brought the kayak to shore.

Then we quickly got out of the kayak and entered the rest area.

At this time, many tourists were already waiting in the rest area after being reminded by the security guards, gathering in groups of three or four to chat and get information.

"I heard that there was a heavy rain upstream and there were flash floods?"

"It should be like this. One of our companions who didn't go rafting was waiting for us upstream. He said that it had rained heavily upstream and there were flash floods."

"If a flash flood really occurs, won't those people drifting above be in danger?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem. If the weather upstream changes, someone will warn you in advance. There are also several rest areas along the way, so it shouldn't be too dangerous."

"..."

Listening to these people's conversation, Qu Xiaoting asked Jiang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, what should we do now? We are all wet, and it is not a good idea to wait here."

Su Anan and An Ning were also blinking and looking at Jiang Hao at this time.

It's really uncomfortable to feel wet all over.

Fortunately, it is summer, which is a little better than winter.

But it won’t work if you don’t change your clothes for a long time.

Before rafting, staff will bring the clothes prepared in advance by tourists to the end point, and tourists can pick them up with their number plates after rafting.

But this is not the end yet, and I can’t get my clothes.

Looking at the looks of Qu Xiaoting and the other two, Jiang Hao comforted them:

"Don't panic, there will definitely be staff to drive us to the destination. The scenic spot will definitely have a plan to deal with this kind of emergency."

Just as Jiang Hao said.

A few minutes later.

Staff will then drive a sightseeing bus to pick up tourists to the destination.

"Everyone line up, don't crowd, go up one by one, one by one..."

Waited about four minutes.

Jiang Hao and his three companions got on the sightseeing bus and headed to the rafting destination.

This place is very close to the end of the rafting.

Seven or eight minutes later, Jiang Hao and his four companions arrived at the finish line.

I went to the locker with my number tag and got the clothes I had prepared in advance.

The clothes of Jiang Hao and other three were placed in the same bag.

Qu Xiaoting opened her backpack and asked Jiang Hao:

"Xiao Hao, what color is the bag that holds your clothes? I forgot."

Jiang Hao thought for a moment and told Qu Xiaoting.

"It should be the blue bag. It was placed at the bottom of the bag when I packed it before."

After Jiang Hao’s reminder.

Qu Xiaoting looked directly at the bottom of her bag.

When I was rummaging through the bag, I accidentally opened another bag.

A blue lace triangle underwear and a blue lace tights appeared in Jiang Hao's field of vision, which startled Jiang Hao:
"Looking at the size, it should be Qu Xiaoting's clothes. I didn't expect that she would wear such a fashionable color. It's so sexy and attractive!"

Qu Xiaoting didn't expect that the bag containing her clothes would suddenly open.

Seeing the exposed underwear, she quickly covered it with her hands and said to Jiang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, don't look around. Even if you saw it, just pretend you didn't see it."

Jiang Hao laughed:
"Hey, Aunt Qu, don't think too much about it. It's not something shameful. Just pretend I didn't see it."

After finishing speaking, he murmured softly:
"This size is really not small, tsk tsk ..."

Although Jiang Hao spoke the second half of the sentence in a low voice, Qu Xiaoting still heard it.

She took out the bag containing Jiang Hao's clothes from the bottom of the backpack, handed it to Jiang Hao, gently pinched his arm, and snorted:
"What are you mumbling about, little guy? Do you really think I didn't hear you? You are so young and don't learn good things, so why do you keep learning bad things?"

Jiang Hao smiled and said to Qu Xiaoting:

"Auntie, you are prejudiced. How can you say you haven't learned well? Everyone loves beauty. Auntie, you have such a beautiful figure. As a normal, passionate young man, it is normal for me to look at you a few more times, right..."

Jiang Hao's words made Qu Xiaoting blush:
"Hey, you little brat, you still dare to talk nonsense, I will beat you up today!"

Qu Xiaoting was just about to punch Jiang Hao with her fist when she suddenly saw Su Anan and An Ning coming back from the toilet together.

She quickly retracted her fist and glared at Jiang Hao, whispering:
"Just wait for me, little guy. I will punish you sooner or later. I will definitely get back at you for what I did today."

Looking at Qu Xiaoting's delicate expression, Jiang Hao was about to say:
"Auntie, please torture me harder, torture me harder!"

Before he could finish his words, Su Anan and An Ning had already arrived.

Su Anan asked Qu Xiaoting:
"Mom, have we found our clothes?"

Qu Xiaoting nodded and said to Su Anan and An Ning:
"Well, we've found our clothes, let's go to the locker room and change."

After finishing speaking, he said to Jiang Hao:
"Xiao Hao, after you change your clothes, we will meet at the restaurant next to the visitor center."

Jiang Hao nodded:

"Okay Auntie, see you later."

The four of them went to the locker room to change clothes separately.

Jiang Hao changed his clothes quickly and came out two minutes later.

Qu Xiaoting and the other two were slower and did not come out.

While waiting for the three people.

Jiang Hao got a piece of news from the staff next to him, and he was shocked:
"What? Heavy rain upstream caused a landslide, and a road was washed away, making it impossible for cars to pass back to the rafting starting point. Tourists can only find a hotel nearby to stay overnight. This is troublesome!"
