Chapter 288 In this world, there is no big deal except death!(1/2)
After more than two hours of wandering on the Yong River with my daughter, the father and daughter who had a lot of fun came ashore by the Luowen River. The bodyguards and drivers were already waiting by the river. As soon as Liu Xiahui and his daughter arrived, the drivers drove towards the Liu Mansion.
At noon and in the afternoon, we had dinner at the Liu Family Building.
In the car, Liu Xiahui asked with a smile: "Little fairy, what do you want to eat later?"
Liu Xiaoxian replied without hesitation: "I want to eat ice cream!"
Liu Xiahui's expression froze and said, "Xiaoxian, eat less ice cream. Eating frozen food is not good for your health!"
Liu Xiaoxian said pitifully: "But I haven't eaten ice cream for a long time. Dad, didn't you just say that I was the biggest on my birthday today? Then, can I eat ice cream?"
Liu Xiahui said helplessly: "Okay, you can eat a little ice cream today, but you have to eat it after meals. What do you want to eat the staple food?"
"Main food, I think about it!" Liu Xiaoxian's eyes turned agilely and said, "Then let's eat roasted whole lamb!"
Liu Xiahui nodded and said, "Okay, then Dad will ask someone to make arrangements right away!" After that, Liu Xiahui called the chefs of [the world's number one Chinese restaurant] to prepare a roasted whole lamb.
As soon as Liu Xiahui finished calling, the car stopped. He saw a crowd of people at the entrance of a hotel next to him, all of whom looked up at the hotel with their heads raised. It was obvious that something had happened.
Liu Xiahui also looked up at the hotel and saw a woman sitting on the fence on the rooftop. He instantly understood what was going on. It was obvious that someone was unable to think about it and was about to jump off the building!
For such a person who wants to commit suicide, Liu Xiahui summarized the eight words Lu Xun said: Sad his misfortune and angered him not to fight!
However, since he met, Liu Xiahui still wanted to try to see if he could save someone, just treat it as accumulating blessings for himself.
After thinking it through, Liu Xiahui said to his daughter: "Xiaoxian, Dad has something to do now. Can you go back to have a meal first?"
Liu Xiaoxian nodded sensibly and said, "Okay dad, then come back quickly!"
Liu Xiahui responded with a smile: "I understand, Dad will go back after finishing his work!"
After saying that, Liu Xiahui opened the car door and got out of the car. The bodyguards quickly divided into two groups, one group escorting Liu Xiaoxian back to the Liu family building, and the other group stayed to protect Liu Xiahui.
Liu Xiahui did not stay there to watch, but walked into the hotel as soon as possible and prepared to go to the roof to try to talk to the woman who wanted to commit suicide to see if there was a chance to save the person.
At this time, the hotel was already in chaos, and some people were preparing to jump off the building on the roof of the hotel. This had a great impact on the hotel. After all, there were many superstitious people in our country. It would be fine if they didn't know. If they knew that someone jumped off the building and died in this hotel, they would never choose to check in with a choice.
Therefore, in terms of hotels, they don’t want anything to happen to others.
Now, the hotel has called the police and the police should be coming soon. What the hotel can do now is to block the passage to the rooftop and prevent those onlookers from going up to make bad things. Everything will be discussed when the police come.
Liu Xiahui was going up, but the hotel was going to stop him, but the bodyguards around Liu Xiahui went over to negotiate with the hotel manager, and then Liu Xiahui and others were unobstructed.
The hotel has a total of eighteen floors, and soon Liu Xiahui brought his bodyguards to the rooftop.
Looking through the stairs, you can see the side of the woman. At this time, the woman was sitting on the small fence with her hands holding her legs, looking at the front with her eyes blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Seeing this scene, Liu Xiahui felt tight. To be honest, the fence was not as big as the woman's butt. If you sit on it in such a posture, there is no need to say much about the danger.
To put it simply, a gust of wind may cause a woman to fall from the building.
At this time, the woman seemed to be immersed in her own inner world and did not notice the arrival of Liu Xiahui and others.
At this time, Liu Xiahui could actually get closer slowly, and maybe he could pull her back while the woman was not prepared.
However, Liu Xiahui still did not dare to take this risk. If he was about to approach the woman, he was suddenly discovered by the woman, and fell from the building after being frightened, it would not be saving people but harming them.
So, Liu Xiahui thought about it and before walking out of the stairs, he deliberately coughed twice, reminding the woman that someone was coming.
Hearing the cough, the woman turned her head and looked at Liu Xiahui with an expressionless face. She said nothing and did not react too much. She turned her head and looked ahead, and continued to immerse herself in her inner world.
Seeing this scene, Liu Xiahui's heart sank. The person who commits suicide is not afraid of her being excited, but is afraid of her not being excited. He commits suicide with excitement. He is unable to think about it for a moment. As long as his emotions calm down, things will pass.
But this kind of calmness from beginning to end, the kind of person who is only immersed in his inner world and feels indifferent to everything outside is truly difficult. It is probably not easy to dispel the other party's idea of suicide.
When Liu Xiahui wrote in his previous life, he looked up relevant information and knew that there are four most common causes of suicide:
First, it is because of depression that cannot be cured, so it embarks on the road of suicide.
Second, it is because of emotional crisis and family breakdown, and all my thoughts are lost.
Third, it is caused by physical diseases such as cancer, AIDS, etc., which put a lot of psychological pressure on patients and lead to mental breakdown.
Fourth, it is caused by interpersonal relationships and work pressure. The parties involved cannot find other ways to seek relief, so they have to choose an extreme method.
Among these four common reasons, if you encounter the second and fourth types, you still have great hopes to solve it, but if you encounter the first and third types, it will be difficult to solve it.
In addition, there are other rare reasons.
For example, religion, superstition, mouth and poison, or even influenced by film and television, there are also people who believe that people can be reborn after death, and then seek death and want to live again.
Liu Xiahui carefully looked at the woman in her thirties and guessed which kind she belonged to.
These things are a matter of a few seconds.
Seeing the woman turning her head to look at them, she was immersed in her inner world again. Liu Xiahui pondered slightly, walked out of the stairs, stood about seven or eight meters away from the woman, coughed again, and said, "Sister, can I talk to you a few words?"
The woman didn't even look back this time, nor did she say anything. I don't know if she heard it or didn't hear it.
Liu Xiahui continued, "Sister, I'm not here to tell you the big truth, but I want to ask you what obstacles you can't overcome. As long as you say it, I will never refuse what I can do!"
Seeing that the woman still ignored him, Liu Xiahui said while observing her every move: "Sister, I don't know what kind of dilemma you have encountered, so I have the idea of suicide. I am not a psychologist, and I don't know how to persuade you.
Before you speak, I will tell you a story!
Sister, you have heard of this story, or you have never heard of it. Whether you have heard of it or not, I want to use this inspirational story to let you get rid of the idea of suicide."
Liu Xiahui said: "The protagonist of this story is named Pan Lian, who was born in a poor rural family in Hainan, my country. At the age of 18, his father asked someone to send him to Hong Kong to make a living.
After arriving in Hong Kong, Pan Lian initially worked as an apprentice on the Tanda ship.
In 1939, World War II broke out in full swing, and in order to deal with Germany, the British began to recruit crew members in Hong Kong. The 21-year-old Pan Lian signed a contract with the British merchant ship "Belomone" and became a waiter on the ship.
After spending more than three years on the ship, the ship Pan Lian was riding was attacked by the Germans.
This was on November 23, 1942. The Belomon was transporting strategic supplies to Britain on the Atlantic Ocean as usual, but was discovered by a German submarine.
After the first torpedo came, the merchant ship exploded, and Pan Lian quickly abandoned the ship and jumped into the sea. After that, the second torpedo came, and the Belomon sank into the sea, and most of the members of the ship were killed.
In a panic, Pan Lian grabbed a wooden board and drifted on the endless sea.
At this time, Pan Lian fell into despair and confusion; what should I do? How can I return to land? How can I escape from the sky?"
As the story unfolded, it was difficult to judge whether the woman listened or not. Instead, the bodyguards who followed Liu Xiahui upstairs listened to it, and they were all thinking about what to do if they encountered this situation?
Liu Xiahui continued to preach: "After drifting on the sea for several hours, suddenly, a miracle happened and a life raft floated over. Pan Lian swam desperately towards the life raft and climbed up.
I was lucky. There were two small compartments on the life raft, and there were two metal boxes inside. There were 40 liters of life-saving fresh water, some jerky, biscuits, canned and chocolate. In addition, there was a flashlight and a few flares in the box.
Perhaps, this is a blessing in disgrace for Pan Lian.
After a burst of joy, Pan Lian saw hope for life, so he began to use these things in a planned manner, consuming only a little food every day.
However, on the sea surface in the tropical areas, the sun is exposed to the sun and the water is lost very quickly. It must have enough fresh water to replenish it, otherwise it will soon dehydrate and die.
In order to solve this problem, he tied the canvas on the life raft to the mast around it, which was also a simple shed. It can avoid exposure to the sun, and it can also collect fresh water when it rains.
Besides, he started knotting his ropes and everything became very planned.”
Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui paused for a moment, and judged that the woman should be listening, so he continued to preach: "Time passed day by day. Although Pan Lian only consumed a small amount of food every day, on the 55th day, his food was still exhausted.
Faced with difficulties, Pan Lian had already figured out a solution.
First, Pan Lian took apart the exhausted flashlight and used the spring inside to make a fish hook. After that, he also disassembled the cables on the life raft into streams and rolled them into small fishing lines.
In addition, he also found some shellfish creatures from the wooden boards of the life raft and used them as bait to fish.
After the first time I caught fish, Pan Lian tried to eat these fish raw, but we Chinese didn’t grow up eating sashimi, so it’s hard to swallow raw fish. In order to solve this problem, Pan Lian dried the fish he caught into dried fish, so that it would not have a fishy smell and would be convenient for long-term storage.
Since you can fish, why not catch a big fish?
Thinking of this, Pan Lian also took off a nail from the life raft and made the nail into a fish hook.
Later, Pan Lian used this fish hook and used small fish as bait to successfully catch a small shark. There were dozens of small fish on the top of a big fish. Pan Lian also made the canned food into a simple knife, cut the shark into fish fillets and hung it.
Fresh water and food have a solution, but a new problem has come again - a storm!!!
After a storm, Pan Lian had accumulated dried fish and fresh water for many days and was ruthlessly taken away."
Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui asked, "Sister, have you heard of this story?"
The woman turned her head and finally spoke this time and asked, "What's next?"
Liu Xiahui was excited and continued to preach: "Faced with all this, Pan Lian was not desperate. He believed that he could survive. So he began to collect food and fresh water again. In the process, Pan Lian also captured seabirds falling on the raft, ate raw bird meat, and even bite off its neck to drink the bird's blood.
However, there is more than one problem.
Because I couldn't get vitamins at sea for a long time, Pan Lian's body began to swell and his skin began to ulcerate.
In the endless suffering and physical pain, Pan Lian still did not give up because he always insisted on his belief-to survive."
Hearing this, the woman murmured to herself: "Live!"
Liu Xiahui said: "I don't know how many days I have been wandering on the sea. Pan Lian saw a merchant ship. He shouted for help desperately, and the merchant ship gradually approached him. However, when they could all see each other clearly, the merchant ship turned around and drove away.
Later, another time, an American plane discovered him and cast a buoy as a sign. But unfortunately, when the storm came, not only did the buoy disappear, but even his own food and fresh water had to be re-collected.
These two times had a huge blow to his will, but he was still persisting..."
The woman said self-deprecatingly: "What's the point of such persistence?"
Liu Xiahui's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he continued to preach: "Finally, when the will and body had reached their limit, Pan Lian saw hope, the color of the sea water changed, and it was approaching the land.
On April 6, 1943, Pan Lian arrived on the coast of Brazil and was rescued by a Brazilian fisherman.
