Chapter 320: A Way Out
Chu Feng took a deep breath and gradually stepped into this red river. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Chu Feng lifted the skate blade out of the water with one hand to avoid the skate blade from coming into contact with the river water and being melted by the river water, and paddled with one hand.
This road was extremely smooth, drifting along the river for a while, the specific mileage Chu Feng really can't estimate, but at least it has drifted out for one or two hundred miles, Chu Feng found that this river merged with another underground river, and the river suddenly became more and more open, and gradually had the momentum of the big river when he escaped.
It drifted two or three hundred miles along the twists and turns of the river, and on the way it merged many tributaries, and the Red River became more and more open and majestic, with the momentum of a turbulent river, but still did not see where the outlet of the Blood River was.
After drifting along the river for four or five miles, a cliff appeared in front of Chu Feng, directly cutting off the river.
The Red River crashed against the cliff with a deafening roar and endless snowflakes.
Chu Feng was stunned for a moment, he grabbed a skeleton in the Red River, and secretly said that it was not strange, then pulled himself out of the Red River, stood on the Red River, and looked at the movements of the Red River around him by the light of the pearl of light in his mouth.
The water level of the Red River is stable and has not risen in any way because of the large amount of water that flows into the river, suggesting that the water of the Red River must have gone somewhere.
Along the way, Chu Feng didn't see any separate tributaries, so Chu Feng knew that he was only afraid that there would be a dark river diversion under the surface of the Red River, otherwise the height of the river would not be so stable.
It's just that if he wants to dive, even if he can support it for a while longer than mortals, no one knows how long it will take to dive this time, and if the dark river is in a deep position, then I am afraid that there will not be enough time at all.
So he also needs some special methods to give himself some air.
Chu Feng thought for a while, rummaged through the mustard sac, and found a piece of crystal that he had obtained from an abandoned ancient mine in the Shura Realm.
This crystal is actually an ordinary object, but it is the size of a watermelon, and the whole is transparent and flawless.
Chu Feng carefully carved this large crystal with an ice blade, as if he was carving it, hollowing out all the inside of the crystal, leaving only a thin layer, just enough to cover his head.
Chu Feng carved another groove on the inside, which just coincided with the size of the Light Pearl, and inlaid the Light Pearl into it before covering his head with this crystal hood.
Chu Feng had already made these preparations, but considering that the lower end of the crystal hood was quite open, and if it was not sealed tightly, it would not be able to store air at all, so he simply found another piece of animal skin, tried it nearby, and found that this piece of animal skin was difficult to soak in water, so he wrapped the whole animal skin around his body and sewed it tightly, only revealing his head.
Immediately after that, Chu Feng made a circle of tiny pinholes under the crystal hood, took off the animal skin, and tightly sewed the upper end of the animal skin with the bottom of the hood, and only then did he open a crack in the belly of the animal skin, so that he could wear this equipment well.
Chu Feng put on this improvised equipment, stitched up all the pores, and then walked into the Red River, after several attempts to modify, gradually blocked those leaky places, after confirming that it was correct, Chu Feng took a deep breath and plunged into the river.
He hoped that the entrance of the dark river would appear as soon as possible, but Chu Feng was doomed to be disappointed, because he had been diving for more than ten zhang, until the huge water pressure made him uncomfortable, and it was difficult for him to continue sinking, what he saw was still a stone wall, blocking the flow of water.
And there is no sign of the water flowing forward.
Chu Feng floated suddenly, swam to the edge of the rock wall, grabbed the white bone and pulled himself back out of the water, and then stood on the white bone with a somewhat strange expression.
Isn't the divergent river beneath the stone wall in front of it?
Chu Feng couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, in this long river, how easy was it to find a diversion dark river submerged in the depths of the river?
Mo said that it was more than 300 miles from the time he entered the river to this place, and it was already difficult to find the few miles of land he had revisited.
But I'm afraid that I have to look for it head-on, right?
Chu Feng had no choice but to jump into the water again, and began to swim upstream with the help of the white bones in the river that were constantly rising and falling.
Chu Feng looked very carefully in the river, and every three or five zhang, he would dive out more than ten zhang to find the diversion of the dark river.
If you want to divide such a huge water flow, the dark river cannot be very small, because the river is too narrow to cause the turbulence of the water flow and cannot be covered, so the dark river must be a big river, with a fairly open river channel, the width of three or five zhang is not wide, as a screening distance is already too detailed.
Chu Feng had been going upriver for a full seven or eight miles before he finally found the dark river he was longing to find.
The width of the entire dark river is amazing, comparable to the river channel of more than 200 zhang wide of the Ming River, and the depth of the river is deep, Chu Feng does not know, maybe it has spread all the way to the ground, and the unpredictable depth of the Ming River is general.
Chu Feng surfaced, climbed onto the nearest huge white bone, sat cross-legged on the ups and downs of the white bone, began to recover his strength, and prepared to dive into the dark river.
It was unknown how long the dark river would be and when he would be able to breathe the next breath of air, so Chu Feng began to recover his strength while starting to increase the air that could be stored to give himself an extra guarantee.
This process is actually very simple, Chu Feng put on an impermeable animal skin on the back of the helmet, and carefully used an ice blade to cut a small hole in the back of the crystal helmet, trying to increase the air storage and avoid suffocating himself.
After the exhaustion of the body was almost recovered, Chu Feng tried the waterproof performance of the newly made helmet, although there was some water, but the speed was not very fast, it could still greatly increase the air storage capacity, the only inconvenience was that it was a little cumbersome and heavy, but this was not a big problem.
Chu Feng put on his helmet again, and then jumped into the river again, and began to dive, burrowing into the dark river.
The course of the dark river is very neat, the upper edge and the edge are straight and smooth straight lines, as if they were dug out by hand, but this huge project is too challenging the limit of manpower, the only reasonable explanation is that this is the original opening up of a certain great power, maybe this is also a certain great ability to escape here when the digging is also dug here?
Chu Feng thought a little playfully.
However, Chu Feng didn't have much time for these thoughts full of evil tastes, and he poured all his energy into moving forward.
With the thrust of the river flowing in the dark river, Chu Feng was not very laborious, but he had to take more precautions and be cautious, there was always nothing wrong with it.
Straight down the river, although Chu Feng tried his best to control his breathing, which greatly reduced his breathing rate, but when the air was halfway used, Chu Feng still couldn't see any signs of an imminent exit, so he had to turn back and return to the Ming River to further increase the space for gas storage.
Chu Feng tried in the safest way, constantly increasing the space for air storage, constantly going back and forth, and had to interrupt many rests because of exhaustion, but he still persevered in the most boring attempt.
It wasn't until the seventeenth advance, when Chu Feng's air was just halfway through, that he felt the rocks above his head gradually rise, and the water surface was also rising—was it about to reach the exit?
Chu Feng frowned slightly, and estimated that the remaining air would barely be enough for him to return to Minghe, if the front was not an exit, then it would be too tragic to lose the bet.
After all, everything needs to be safe.
Chu Feng gritted his teeth, turned back again, further increased the space for storing air, and rested for a while until his body recovered from exhaustion before he began to move on.
When he drifted four or five miles away from the location where Chu Feng had last turned back, the rocks above his head finally disappeared, Chu Feng couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and he no longer felt sad about the fatigue caused by his superfluous return, and hurriedly floated upward, but it surfaced in a moment.
Chu Feng was in a bright world, and some dazzling light passed through the crystal helmet and sprinkled on Chu Feng's face, making Chu Feng hurriedly close his eyes and turn his head, blocking his eyes with his hand.
After a while, Chu Feng gradually adapted to this intense light, slowly opened his eyes, and slowly turned his head.
It's a blazing light, but once you get used to it, it doesn't affect your vision too much.
The place where Chu Feng surfaced seemed to be a waterhole, and wisps of red mist spread across the water, forming red clouds in the sky.
The red clouds fluttered neatly in the air into the distance until they disappeared from sight.
The ground, on the other hand, is a wilderness as far as the eye can see, and nothing but the bare earth.
Chu Feng climbed ashore and looked back at the pool he climbed out of, the surface of the pool was boundless, it looked like a vast ocean, only the tide of water was constantly pushing towards the shore.
Ocean?
Or is it a different space entirely?
Chu Feng looked at the boundless wilderness in front of him, and felt a little headache for a while, although he had now gotten rid of some crises, but the situation in front of him also made him a little unpredictable.
Is this still under the Ten Thousand Gully Mountains, or is it some other place?
Chu Feng took off a heavy diving suit, thought about it, dried it, folded it and put it into the mustard seed sac, and then took out the skate blade from the mustard seed sac and carried it on his back.
Chu Feng rested for a while before standing up again, looking into the distance, silent for a while, and taking his own steps.
At the very least, let's go ahead and give it a try.
