Chapter 447: Unforgettable Experience

[The kids are innocent. Oh heavens, please let them live.]

[Sob sob sob. This is too cruel. Why did something like this happen first thing in the morning?]

[If there are any gods in this world, please show your powers!]

[Thoughts and prayers!]

[Thoughts and prayers!]

…

At the same time, within the river, the bus sunk quickly.

The passengers in the bus looked at the outside world in despair. The doors and windows were shut tight, making it impossible for them to escape. The river was like a bottomless abyss, where the only thing they could do was to sink continuously, inching ever closer to their death.

Little Snow was a student. As usual, she took the bus to school.

To her surprise, she met her friend from the same class on the bus that morning. Both of them sat together and chatted away, ranting about their overwhelming homework.

However, something went wrong at the front of the bus. Someone was arguing with the bus driver and the conflict grew more and more severe. Following that, the bus began to swerve out of control, causing their bodies to be flung left and right.

After the heavy shaking, she finally realized that the entire bus was in the water.

She could feel the air in the bus getting thinner while the pressure around them increased, causing her to be short of breath. Countless streams of water seeped through the seams of the bus, drenching her clothes.

She took a look at the view outside. The water was slightly murky, with fishes zooming about from the surprise. ‘Is this the world underwater?’

She had tried to imagine what was under the water. Who knew that she would really see it that day.

On the bus, the passengers were crying. Some even started howling in despair, trying their best to open the windows.

‘Am I going to die?’

Little Xue was unfamiliar with the concept of death. She only felt some discomfort in her heart. ‘Will I never wake up again after I die? My parents will surely be very sad.’

The water level in the bus kept rising. Little Xue was already choking from some water. Around her neck was a small jade pendant of Maitreya[1], floating around her along with the water current.

It was something her parents purchased for her from a temple. It was said to bless her with a lifetime of happiness and health.

‘Can it really save me?’

Little Xue did not know. She was already almost drowning in the water.

Right then, she could barely make out the shape of a giant tortoise swimming towards them. Someone was seated on the tortoise’s back…

On the bridge, the crowd grew larger. Along the banks, a large number of people were trying to find a solution as well. The entire internet was trying its best to solve this issue, yet it still proved too difficult.

As time passed, everyone could already guess at the outcome. However, nobody wanted to face it. They kept trying to convince themselves that a miracle would happen. It must!

“Too slow, too slow! Where’s the rescue team?! Every minute counts!”

“F*ck! Is the driver a dumb*ss? Why did he drive it into the river? Why?!”

“Such a long time passed. Where’s the bus now? How do we save them?”

“Someone rushed into the river earlier, but he could not last more than two minutes before giving up. The current is too strong.”

“OMG! Guys, look at the river! What’s that?!”

As their hopes faded away, a voice that was filled with excitement and surprise could be heard, drawing everyone’s attention to it.

‘That…that is…’

Looking over, the crowd could feel their hearts race as their pupils dilated. They all stared in stunned silence at the middle of the river. Their eyes were filled with nervousness and anticipation.

They saw a gigantic whirlpool appearing out of the blue in the originally calm surface of the river. The whirlpool grew in size. Eventually, the bus appeared in everyone’s line of sight!

“The bus! It’s the bus! The bus floated up!” screamed someone using all his might, who then followed by crying tears of joy!

“The heavens bless them! By Bodhisattva’s grace!”

“Motherf*cker, open your eyes and look carefully. That’s not the bus floating up. It’s being lifted by something from below!”

Very slowly, a large tortoiseshell appeared, driving the crowd crazy!

“F*ck! It’s Old Tortoise! It’s that bloody Old Tortoise! It’s carrying the bus up!”

“Sob sob sob, long live Old Tortoise. You’re awesome!”

“What’s this Old Tortoise nonsense? That’s the Black Warrior, a mythical beast of China! Oh great Black Warrior, please accept my prayers!”

“Ahhh, I knew a miracle would happen!”

“Look on top of Black Warrior’s back! It’s God Ye! OMG, God Ye’s here!”

“Sob sob sob, I’ve finally seen my husband in person. He’s a hundred times more handsome than pictured on screen! I love you!”

“God Ye, you’re so cool! You’re the best!”

…

At the same time, some took pictures right away and uploaded it to their WeChat Moments. Some were even recording videos and putting it on TikTok.

“I’ve never been this excited before. Those tropes in the movies are actually happening to me right now. This is the first time I’m this close to my idol. I think I’m going to pass out from happiness.”

“God Ye looks so much better in person than on screen! Moreover, I’ve met the real Black Warrior. This is my lucky day!”

“Black Warrior’s sudden appearance saves the lives of many! A feat worthy of our guardian mystical beast!”

While the incident with the bus was still progressing, news of it had already spread throughout the internet, bringing in cheers from countless people.

[The moment I heard about the bus dropping in the river, I immediately followed this news. They were actually saved. I love this world!]

[Thank you God Ye. Thank you Black Warrior.]

[I cried when I saw the bus float to the surface. I really cried!]

[I cried when I saw Old Tortoise and God Ye. At this moment, they seem to be glowing, moving me to tears.]

[Wait for me, my husband. I’ll skip work and rush over right now!]

…

Old Tortoise supported the bus and brought it towards the river bank. Although the bus was big, it was not too strenuous for it. Ye Lingchen sat on its back and checked the condition of the passengers inside.

There were a lot of students. Fortunately, they only suffered from minor concussion and trauma. Nothing serious.

Surprisingly, a little girl was the calmest one. Her clear eyes locking gaze with him in silence.

After the shocking escape from the dark and icy world below, the glaring sunlight shined on Little Xue’s body, warming her up and dispelling the chill from her. It gave her a feeling of being out of this world.

She once again experienced the goodness of this world. It came with a big brother that she thought was the most handsome man staring at her. The sunlight illuminated the area around him, as though he was glowing. That scene was one that she would never forget…
