Volume 1 Chapter 137 Never Give Up!
Just when Xiao Xian, Yang Lan, Tang Peng and the others were having a headache about how to cross the river, Lin Yang did not step forward to join in the fun, but squatted on the side of the Mba River, and stretched his right hand into the cold and rapid river, as if he was testing something.
The attention of the special police officers was not on Lin Yang, so naturally they would not see that there was a wisp of green smoke seeping out from the gap between his left fingers. The dark blue soul fire beat like an elf in his palm, burning a water control talisman into ashes in an instant.
Lin Yang is trying to see if he can use the water control charm to control the torrent.
Unfortunately, after some trying, he was disappointed.
The rolling torrent in the Mba River is so strong that no matter how many water charms are cast, it is impossible to control it. After all, the Water Control Talisman is only a second-grade talisman of the mortal rank, and its power is limited. Moreover, with Lin Yang's cultivation in the middle of the Mind Realm, his soul power simply could not reach the level needed to control a fifty-meter-wide river
Disappointment is disappointment, but Lin Yang did not give up.
He changed his approach and continued with shiyan.
Since there is no way to control the torrent of the Mba River, let's try to see if you can control the speed and direction of the water flow in a small area around you. It's much less difficult than controlling an entire river. Moreover, if it really succeeds, with his strong calf-like body, he should be able to cross the river by force
Lin Yang learns from failures again and again, and strives to move towards success.
Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye.
The members of the SWAT team have still not been able to discuss a practical and effective solution.
Just when they were looking at the Mba River and sighing, Lin Yang, who had been squatting by the river and was about to be forgotten by them, suddenly stood up and said, "Let me try it." ”
"What are you going to try?" Xiao Xian was stunned.
"See if you can take these two ropes and swim to the other side. Lin Yang replied as he untied the medicine box on his back, then picked up the rope from the ground and tied it to himself.
Hearing this, everyone in the SWAT team was stunned.
Swim to the other side?
If we can make it to the other side, why should we waste our time here?
Yang Lan raised her eyebrows even more, and said angrily: "Are you crazy? Now is not the time to be reckless, even Tang Peng, a stupid man who is proficient in water, can't swim to the other side, can you still do it with thin arms and legs? In the Mba River, there are not only undercurrents, but also stones and trees that rush down from above. If you're unlucky, you'll be able to get out of the water, and even if we're desperately trying to pull the rope back on the shore, you're going to die."
Although her tone was more impulsive, it was for her own good after all. So Lin Yang just smiled and didn't reply.
Xiao Xian also echoed: "Yes, Doctor Lin, Yang Lan is right, the Mba River after the rising water is very dangerous, besides, I invited you to come, but I didn't let you risk yourself." Let's sum it up again and figure out a way......"
"You've all been together for so long, have you come up with any way to come up?" Lin Yang interrupted him and asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Xiao Xian was speechless.
Lin Yang took advantage of the victory and pursued: "Since you haven't been able to come up with a way to cross the river, then why don't you let me try it?" The dammed lake above Shuzheng Village may burst at any time, and we spend an extra minute here, and the danger faced by those people trapped in Shuzheng Village will add a little more time, but we can't afford to waste it."
At this moment, even Yang Lan had nothing to say.
"Why don't I go into the water and try it again?" Tang Peng gritted his teeth and said, reaching out to grab the rope. He didn't want his savior to risk it.
Lin Yang sideways avoided his hand and said, "We all saw the situation you just had. You're really good at water, and your stamina is pretty good. But even then, at most you can only swim across the middle of the river, and you can't swim to the other side. Now that your physical strength has not recovered, if you go into the water again, I am afraid that you will not even be able to swim in the heart of the river
"This ......" Tang Peng had nothing to say.
Since his family knows his own affairs, his physical strength has not fully recovered after being consumed, and he really can't swim to the center of the river again, let alone swim to the other side.
At this time, Yang Lan finally found an opportunity to refute and said: "Tang Peng can't swim to the other side, you can?" Although we don't know what your water nature is, your physical strength is definitely not as good as Tang Peng's."
Lin Yang smiled and didn't argue with her, just said: "Can you or not, you will only know after trying" Then, he said to Xiao Xian: "Captain Xiao, the current situation is not the time to hesitate. We're already here, wasting too much time. If you don't cross the river quickly, it will be even more difficult to cross the river in the evening."
Xiao Xian was taken aback when he heard this, and raised his wrist to look at the time on his watch.
At this time, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. Although the sky is very gray under this heavy rain and ghost weather, at least you can see the surrounding situation clearly. If you delay for another hour or two, when the sky is completely dark, whether you cross the river or hurry, the danger factor will increase several times
After taking a deep breath, Xiao Xian made a decision, he stared at Lin Yang, and said in a deep voice: "Since Doctor Lin took the initiative to ask for help, then try it, Doctor Lin, if you are physically exhausted, or encounter any danger, notify us in time, but you must not give us energy."
Lin Yang nodded: "Don't worry, I won't joke with my life." ”
Xiao Xian took the rope and personally tied it to Lin Yang, trying to tie it tightly without affecting Lin Yang's activities.
After doing all this, Xiao Xian took out a bottle of wine from his backpack, unscrewed the lid and handed it to Lin Yang: "Come, take a sip to warm up." The torrent in the Mba River is very frozen. ”
Lin Yang didn't squirm, smiled and thanked him, took the wine bottle and took a big sip.
The hot liquor irritated his throat and made his cold body hot.
After handing the remaining half bottle of wine back to Xiao Xian, Lin Yang didn't say a word of superfluity, and jumped into the torrent of the Mba River.
No one noticed that in his clenched hands, there were two dark blue soul fires, burning a water control charm and a wind charm respectively.
The purpose of using the water control charm is to control and change the speed and direction of the torrent around you. And the use of the breeze charm is to attract a strong wind against the current. Lin Yang didn't expect this wind to blow the torrent to stop, he just hoped that the speed of the torrent could be slowed down a little.
Except for Lin Yang, who was in the torrent, no one noticed that the river flowing by his side was a few points slower than the surroundings. No one noticed that the direction of the river's flow was also showing a downward trend, pushing Lin Yang towards the opposite bank.
Watching Lin Yang slowly swim towards the opposite shore in the torrent, the hearts of the group of people in the SWAT team were all tightened.
Yang Lan originally thought that Lin Yang just wanted to be reckless, and if he couldn't swim a few meters after entering the water, he would not be able to support it. But now, Lin Yang has swam a distance of more than ten meters against the rolling torrent. This also made her look at Lin Yang with admiration, and at the same time, she had an expectation in her heart: "Team Xiao, you say, can this kid successfully swim to the other side?"
Xiao Xian didn't answer, because he had the same problem in his heart.
Gradually, Lin Yang swam across the middle of the river.
By this moment, he had used up five Water Charm and three Wind Charm Talismans.
The water of the Mba River is too urgent, if it weren't for the help of the Water Control Charm and the Wind Charm, even if he could swim to the middle of the river, his physical strength would be consumed. In the end, he could only be like Tang Peng, who was pulled back because of exhaustion.
As time passed, the distance Lin Yang swam out of was getting farther and farther.
After more than 20 minutes, he had swam more than 30 meters, and there was only about 10 meters left from the opposite bank.
However, his mental and physical fitness also reached a critical point at this time.
Lin Yang raised his head high above the water and took a deep breath. He felt his chest at this time, like a broken bellows, emitting a piercing and noisy whirring. At the same time, the temples on both sides of him began to beat with his heart, accompanied by bursts of intense, pinprick-like pain.
He knew that his mental and physical strength was about to run out.
However, he was not willing to give up like this
Two-thirds of the way has already come, how can you give up less than a third of the distance from the other side?
What's more, on the other side of the river, in Shuzheng Village, there are still his brothers and friends, waiting for him to come to the rescue
He couldn't give up
He had to persevere
Lin Yang gritted his teeth, endured the strong discomfort caused by the exhaustion of mental and physical energy, and desperately swam towards the opposite shore.
His expression was particularly hideous at this moment.
But this hideous expression, instead of making people feel scared, it also gives people a sense of trust.
10 meters ...... Nine meters ...... Eight meters ......
Lin Yang's speed slowed down significantly, and every time he moved forward, it was so difficult. He felt like his body had fallen under a thousand pounds, and it could sink to the bottom of the water at any time and be swept away by the torrent.
"Come on, come on"
"There are only seven or eight meters left, and we are about to reach the other side, hold on, we must hold on."
"Stabilize your body, don't be swept over by the torrent"
On the shore, the members of the SWAT team were cheering for Lin Yang loudly.
At this time, they were eager to lend Lin Yang their strength and help him, so that he could swim across the distance of seven or eight meters as soon as possible and reach the opposite bank.
But just as they were looking forward to it, Lin Yang's body suddenly crooked, and he didn't resist the surging torrent, and was swept over and swept into the waves.
"Ahh
"Hurry up and pull the rope back"
The SWAT team members on the shore were suddenly in a mess, and they were about to pull the rope to pull Lin Yang back.
Xiao Xian stopped them at this time: "Wait...... Don't pull the rope, don't pull"
Yang Lan didn't know why and asked, "Team Xiao, if you don't pull Dr. Lin back quickly, he will be drowned in this raging flood."
Xiao Xian raised his hand and pointed in the direction where Lin Yang was swept over by the river, and said, "Look, Lin Yang is waving to us, he is asking us not to worry about pulling the rope."
Everyone hurriedly looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, they saw that Lin Yang had regained his body, and was holding his hands high behind their backs, waving constantly.
Yang Lan stopped pulling the rope, but she was still a little worried in her heart: "He...... Is it still going to work?"
Can he still do it?
This question also exists in the minds of all SWAT team members.
In the rolling torrent, Lin Yang's not strong body is like a reef, standing stubbornly, no matter how the water hits, he just refuses to go with the flow
A little bit of crystal tears swirled in the eyes of Yang Lan, Xiao Xian and other members of the SWAT team.
They were moved.
Because of Lin Yang's righteous act of sacrificing his life and risk, and because of his spirit of never giving up......
