Chapter 15 The Iron Cable Crossing the River (Revised)

As he spoke, the big ship had entered a turbulent passage.

I saw that the rocks on both sides of the bank were steeply cut, and strange rocks were standing in a forest, and a gust of wind that passed through the gorge was blowing through the boat with a roar.

The temperature also seemed to drop suddenly, and the already dusk sky became dark in a blink of an eye.

Both the helmsman and the sailor bred up and kept the boat firmly in check, avoiding collisions with the stone pillars jutting out of the water in the rapids.

At the same time, they use their skilled skills and experienced experience to avoid the reefs hidden underwater.

After a moment of planting, the front reached the most dangerous section of the water.

The main channel is still steep, but not the most dangerous.

What's worse is that there's a branch here.

One of the branches on the left is the main channel, and the other on the right is a passage that leads people to hell.

Not only is there more turbulent currents and rocks, but even if you don't crash the boat here, there is no hope of survival when you get ahead.

Because at the end of this section of the waterway was a cliff, from which the river rushed down and smashed into a pool at the bottom of the cliff fifty meters deep.

None of the people who had gone astray in the past could escape, and they all ended up with shipwrecks and deaths.

With the captain's command, several crew members picked up the long poles and stood on the sides of the ship.

The long song on the left has a hook, and the long song on the right has a spear.

Those with spears can pierce the bottom of the river to prevent the boat from deflecting towards the tributary that leads to the Onimen Pass.

The hook is used to hook the mountain on the left side and keep the boat on the side of the main channel.

The crowd shouted in unison, each according to his ability, and sailed the ship to the main channel.

Although they could not help, Mai Ke and Peter watched through the window with a little nervousness as the ship passed through the dangerous current.

It is about to enter the main channel and turn the danger into a disaster. It was a sudden gong sound, near the entrance to the main channel. Suddenly jumped out of a swarthy chain and cut across the river in front of the boat.

"Bang!" the big ship took advantage of the momentum of the water and crashed into it.

The chains of the Hengduan River rattled but did not break, successfully blocking the attempts of incoming ships to enter the main channel.

The sailors on both sides of the ship did their best to hold on to the long songs, but the impact was too violent. The long Song on the left who was grasping the mountain first broke their minions, and then the Song spears on the right also broke off.

Although it succeeded in stabilizing the big ship and did not capsize, it plunged headlong into the tributary on the right and entered the ghost gate.

It happened so quickly that everyone didn't see what was going on, let alone react, and even Mai Ke and Peter didn't have time to take any measures, and it was a matter of life and death.

The helmsman of the ship, the crew with a half-cut pole in his hand. I tried my best to stop the big boat from going down the river, but the big boat still went down the river, and in a blink of an eye there was a cliff waterfall in front of it.

Everyone closed their eyes in despair and gave up hope!

Ship wrecks and casualties are inevitable.

Of course, the desperate people do not include Mai Ke and Peter.

As soon as the big ship entered the ghost gate on the right, Mai Ke, who knew what was ahead, immediately told Peter. Come with him right away.

When Meng Ruofei wanted to hug Peter and die together before he died, he found that he was empty.

Could it be that this kid ran away on his own? There was water on all sides. No one can run.

Jingrui, who happened to be hiding in the same room with Mai Ke, couldn't take care of being reserved at the moment of life and death, and planned to hand herself over to the man next to him who she had a very good impression of before she died.

She also lost her purpose.

But she didn't complain.

The husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when disaster came. Besides, I had nothing to do with him in the first place.

She was a little envious of her good sister's quick eyes, and the two of them must be suffering together.

By the time everyone was either thinking nonsense, or their eyes were closed, and they were resigned to fate, Mai Ke and Peter had already jumped out of the bow of the boat. Come to the front of the big ship.

The problem is that they can't leave the ship behind, and more importantly, the nearly 100 lives on board.

Rescue is a huge challenge.

At the same time, they prayed in their hearts, "Lord's accord," and flew to the front of the ship, grabbing the front of the ship one by one.

The first thing they did was to straighten the bow of the boat so that it wouldn't roll over.

They had just seen that the ship had been skewed a little by the water, perhaps because the helmsman had given up.

This correction is very critical, if it falls horizontally or diagonally, it is impossible to adjust it in the middle.

As soon as the bow of the boat was straightened, the big ship fell down the waterfall with a "boom".

Then they had two tasks: the first was to prevent the big ship from turning over in the process of falling, and the second was to slow down the speed at which the big ship was falling.

At this time, the two of them coincidentally freed up one hand and pressed the second button on their respective shirts to turn on another special function.

Unlike the first button, which controls the flight function, this second function adds 5,000 kilograms of buoyancy to each person.

The two of them exerted force at the same time, twisting these buoyancy, the ability of the first button to fly, and their own strength, into a rope that formed a buffer.

Although it could not stop the descent of the big ship, it greatly reduced the speed of the slide, so that the landing of this section, which was supposed to be five seconds, took twelve seconds.

When approaching the water, Mai Ke and Peter tried their best to explode and change the angle of the bow into the water, from the original 90 degrees to 60 degrees, just slapping diagonally on the surface of the water.

If everything remains the same, the weight acceleration of this ship will be at least a few tens of meters deep into the water, and then it will continue to sink until the bottom of the water with its own weight.

Now, due to the change in speed and angle, the hull of the ship is only half flat into the water, and only the bow of the boat that touches the water first enters the water, and the other brothers remain as usual.

What's more, the boat is still floating on the water.

Even so, many people still fall and get injured. When falling down, the inertia is too great, and a strong person can hold on to a fixed part of the boat and keep his body in place.

Those who were physically unable to do so fell until they were blocked by the partitions in the bow and room.

Even more unfortunate is being injured by someone or something that falls.

Fortunately, Ning Jingrui and Meng Ruofei were not injured.

Ruofei rushed to Jingrui's room before the boat fell, holding her with one hand and the pillar with the other. Survived.

However, this is also thanks to Mai Ke and Peter slowing down the falling speed, if it is a free fall, I don't know how much more injuries will increase.

Now there are not many injuries, and no one has died, which is a unique thing!

This is also beyond everyone's realization.

As soon as the boat came to a stop, the two jumped out of the water onto the boat. Seen by many at the moment.

The quick-witted immediately thought that this salvation had something to do with these two men. Repeatedly witnessing the miraculous number of roads and Ning Zuo, when he saw the two, he hurriedly thanked them, "Thank you for your life-saving grace!

Ning Zuo added, "This is the second time, there is no way to repay it, and I will only obey my orders in the future." ”

Uncle Lu said in his heart, I also mean the same, but it's a pity that you old fox took the lead.

Mai Ke gave him credit for the two. Noncommittal.

"Don't say anything else, our crisis is not over. Look around. ”

In fact, you don't need to be reminded by Mai Ke, you can see it clearly when you look up.

Now they are truly sitting in the well and watching the sky. It is surrounded by cliffs, at least a hundred meters high.

The shortest point, also fifty meters, is the top of the waterfall where they fell.

It's also strange to say that so many rivers are rushing down endlessly, and I don't know where they all flow. There is only the source of intake, there is no export.

This kind of environment. Mai Ke and Peter can fly out on their own, at most they can take their two daughters with them.

Or get a little creative and use the buoyancy they just used again to save a few more people.

But the boat could not be saved.

How do you get to Gwangju without a boat?

And the people who drove them into this Black Dragon Pool would not let them concentrate on organizing an escape.

It was even found that they were not crushed. It's not even possible to stay here.

Sure enough, at this time, six or seven figures of different lengths appeared on the small hill next to the waterfall.

By the last rays of the day, these people could still see the unsunken ship, and asked in a puzzled and surprised tone, "Is anyone still alive?"

Mai Ke ignored the question, and the others consciously followed suit. Silent either.

At this moment, a man on the hill raised his hand and threw a stone at the big boat.

Coincidentally, it was falling on the head of a crew member.

At this time, in order to save people, Uncle Lu made a move, grabbed the stone, and threw it into the water.

The man was saved, and the splash of the old high water also informed the people on the hill that there were still living people on the boat.

At this time, another middle-aged man came out of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "Since your life is immortal, I will also open the net, as long as you hand over six people, we will hang you all up and let you go." ”

Uncle Lu was just about to speak, but Mai Ke shook his head to stop and asked, "Which six?"

The man mentioned six names, including Mai Ke, Peter, the two young ladies, Ning Zuo, and the eldest son.

As soon as Mai Ke heard these names, Ning You's ruthless and unwilling eyes immediately appeared in front of him.

"It seems that he still doesn't give up. ”

At this time, Jing Rui came over and said to Mai Ke, "The person who spoke just now is the head of the Ning family in the Zhaozhou region, and this place already belongs to the Guangdong Province. He was originally another uncle I planned to visit, and the son of the second master, Xingsan. ”

No wonder it's a bit like Ning You.

It seems that this one is even more ruthless.

It is true that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with its own differences.

Why don't you learn from the second child?

He glanced at Ning Zuo, who had been unable to interject beside him, and then quickly said, "Rui'er is right. This is the third brother. My father liked him more than my eldest brother, so he became the head of Zhaozhou Prefecture, which was more important than Wuzhou. ”

Zhaozhou is not only more economically wealthy, but also has an incomparable geographical location, just stuck in Liangguang, that is, Guangdong and Guangxi, the throats of the two major provinces.

"What do you suggest?" Mai Ke asked Ning Zuo.

"Resolutely not to hand over. ”

"Why?"

Mai Ke asked a little strangely. He is also one of the six people who have been asked to return it, isn't it good to get out of danger and return to his family?

Ning Zuo's face was embarrassed, and he said dryly, "It stands to reason that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but the lives of so many people are at stake, I have to say it! My third brother is too ruthless, even better than the eldest brother." If I fall into his hands, it will be ten times more dangerous than it is now. ”

Jing Rui next to her also kept bowing her head, obviously completely agreeing with the second uncle's opinion.

The family is like this, which shows that this one is too notorious.

So he replied in a loud voice, "We need to discuss, and we'll give you an answer in two days." ”

"No! one day at most! If you don't agree to our request by this time tomorrow, all of them will die. (To be continued.) )
