[Explanation] Recently, by the Binan River in Bishan District, Chongqing, a 20-year-old man fell into the river to commit suicide. Just before his death, 65-year-old Li Xin jumped into the icy river and saved the man ashore, saving a life.

  The Binan River is a river that flows in the urban area of ​​Bishan District, Chongqing. The trails on both sides of the river are a good place for citizens to usually relax and entertain.

At around 8 o'clock that evening, Li Xin took a walk to the vicinity of the Shuangxing Bridge on the Binan River and saw many people surrounded by the river.

At first she thought that someone had caught a big fish in the river, but curiously she leaned forward to see what was going on, only to see a young man floating on the water.

At that time, Li Xin didn't think much, and immediately took off his jacket, and then jumped into the river to save people.

  We walked over there and saw a lot of people piled up here. I thought it was a big fish, but when I looked closer, it turned out to be alone.

Oh, what a pity I feel, a life.

At that time, because there was no one else going down, I felt that one life would go down.

  [Explanation] The rescue process was not smooth. The young man was about 1.7 meters tall and his body was relatively strong. In addition, he became heavier after falling into the water.

When Li Xin tried to lift him out of the water for the first time, the lifting height was not in place due to insufficient strength, and the enthusiastic citizens on the shore failed to hold the drowning boy firmly.

Because of her old age, Li Xin was exhausted, but she did not give up. She grabbed the young man again and lifted him out of the water again. With the help of the enthusiastic citizens on the shore, the drowning young man was rescued by everyone.

Later, staff from local fire, public security, medical and other departments rushed to the scene for treatment, and the young man gradually regained consciousness.

  Because I have liked swimming since I was a kid, and I like to exercise. This time I can go to the river to save people based on my own body. Then swimming will be fine.

  [Explanation] That night, Li Xin’s good friend Gong Yiping did not go out for a walk because of something. She was moved to tears when she heard the news of Li Xin’s rescue for the first time.
