Chapter 14: The Cave in the Water
The train was still moving forward, and the news spread from car to car, and many passengers were terrified and hesitated. When it was confirmed that the news was true, the passengers cheered and kept asking what had happened.
Chu Xiguan looked at Lin Rou, who was worried, and comforted him: "Brother Yun Ji has his own natural appearance, not a short-lived person, don't worry." ”
But there is one thing he didn't say, the place where Yunshan fell belongs to the border of the Tianfeng Country, the terrain is precipitous, mostly lofty mountains and dense forests, and many tribes are active in it, strictly speaking, it belongs to the land outside the world.
As soon as Yunshan entered the water, he knew that it was not good, and the "meteor" was too heavy, which made him fall straight to the bottom.
The river in the canyon was deep and fast, and Yun Shan felt that he had encountered a problem.
Once he lets go of the heavy sword, he may be swept away by the torrent, but if he holds on, he will end up suffocating to death under the water.
As soon as he touched the bottom of the river, Yunshan had a plan. I saw him holding his sword on the ground, remembering the direction before falling into the water, and walking towards the nearest shore step by step.
By the time he touched the mountain on the shore, Yunshan's face was already red. Without a hint of panic, he drew the blade of his sword with his right hand, plunged a sword into the rock, pulled up his body, and then inserted the scabbard into the crack of the stone, pulled out the blade, and continued to pull his body upward. Repeat this alternately, using both hands together, and crawl towards the water.
"Whew, whew, whew......" Yun Shan's head finally showed the surface of the river, and he opened his mouth wide and breathed greedily.
After a while, he dived into the water again.
Before, he had found a cave that seemed to have a bright light, but at that time breathing came first, so he didn't act rashly, but now he could go in and find out.
The entrance of the cave is not big, and only two people can pass through, after entering the cave, Yunshan found that the hole is diagonally upward, narrow at first, and the more you go up, the more spacious and brighter it becomes.
"Wow!" a head suddenly popped out of the small pond, and a few children playing not far away were startled, "Hell!" They threw down their things and turned to run into the distance.
"Ghost?" Yun Shan touched his face and shook his head, a child in this remote place really has no vision.
The pond is full of grass and green trees, and the midsummer sun shines through the lush foliage, and Yun Shan carries a heavy sword and walks from the bottom of the water to the shore.
With his feet on the earth, he let out a long sigh of relief. Looking at the only little boy left next to him, the little guy kept looking at him, "Why don't you run?"
The little guy's eyes widened, and he suddenly tilted his head and asked, "Are you a river god?"
---------
The flowers on Mo are blooming, green as clouds, and two figures, one big and one small, walk in it.
The big one is Yunshan, and the small one is called Allen, and he is a child of a tribe in this neighborhood.
"Why did you say that I was a river god before?" the two people who were traveling with him quickly became acquainted, and Yun Shan asked curiously.
"People in our tribe are all carrying water in that pond to drink, and that pond is very strange, even if everyone picks up more water, it is still so full. Someone once went down and said that it was so deep that it was impossible to see the bottom, and the people in the tribe said that there was a river god living in that pond, so the water was always full. Alan said as he picked up a dog's tail grass on the side of the road and turned it, "You come out of there, what else can you be if you are not a river god." ”
"Alan, are you alright?" the three young men suddenly appeared on the hillside, looking at Yunshan with a hostile expression, and a girl led by them shouted at Alan.
"Sister, I'm fine!" Alan raised his hand and shook it happily, and trotted into the girl's arms.
The girl pinched Allen's arm and face, "They said you let the water ghost take you away, but you scared Sister to death, what's the matter?"
"Haha......" Allen's little face stretched and he laughed, "What kind of water ghosts, I think it's a group of cowards, and the water ghosts they are talking about are actually Brother Noshan." As he spoke, he turned around and pointed to Yun Shan, who was following behind unhurriedly.
Yun Shan did not report his real name, in the country of Tianfeng, the surname Yun is not common, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he used a pseudonym.
The girl looked at Yun Shan, her eyes were bright and vigilant, she was not as easy to fool as Ah Di, "Who are you?" the girl asked.
Yun Shan walked in front of the girl and stopped, and said with a smile: "Girl, don't be nervous, my name is Nuoshan, and I am just an explorer who inadvertently passed by here, and I have no ill will towards you." ”
"Brother Noshan, this is my sister, her name is Erin. Alan blinked his wide, twinkling eyes.
Erin would be skeptical of the stranger's words, but the young man who called himself Noshan in front of him was really good-looking, and there was no better one in the nearby tribe.
A boy who was about the same age as Erin saw that she was no longer vigilant, so he couldn't help but "snort" and said in a muffled voice: "Appearing here at this time in Wubi, it is hard to guarantee that he is not a spy sent by other tribes to investigate, we must bring him back!"
"Yes, bring him back and give it to the Great Elder. The other boy chimed in with a bow in his hand.
"Then I have to trouble you and go back to the tribe with us. Erin spoke politely, but her expression was undeniable.
"Okay. "Originally, Yun Shan planned to go to the Allen tribe to have a look, after all, he had nowhere else to go.
"Tony, take what he has in his hand. Erin commanded the boy with the bow on his back, and the thing wrapped in the strip of cloth was most likely the weapon of the Noshan.
"I'm coming!" the boy who spoke first rushed forward.
"Sister, Brother Nuoshan is a good person, you can't be like this. Alan grabbed the corner of Sister A's clothes. Erin didn't speak.
Yun Shan shook his head at Allen, "It's okay. As he spoke, he handed over the heavy sword in his hand.
"Oops!" an exclamation sounded.
Tony's face changed, and he was immediately full of vigilance, staring at this guy named Noshan, only to find that he didn't seem to be doing anything, just standing there with his hands spread and an innocent expression.
"Duka, what's wrong?" asked Tony, curious.
Duka turned around, revealing a flushed face, holding the strip of cloth he had received from Yun Shan's hand in both hands, gritting his teeth and saying, "What is this, thing...... Also, it's too heavy, huhuhu......"
Tony stepped forward to try, he was also startled, he stole a glance at Yun Shan next to him with a calm face, he didn't see how hard it was to take this thing just now, oh my God, how can this guy have so much strength.
Along the way, Duka and Tony took turns holding this iron rod that was too heavy to speak, and they were miserable in their hearts, and they had already let this Noshan hold it by themselves.
Alan was still chatting with Yun Shan, while Erin was biting her lip, not knowing what was going on in her heart.
Seeing that he had entered the gate of the tribe, Duka could finally throw away the iron rod in his hand, and with a "bang", the iron rod smashed on the ground and stirred up a cloud of dust. Duka and Tony's arms have been shaking because of the loss of strength.
"Hey, Duka, what did you get back?" a few young men came up.
"Let's go, let's go see the Great Elder first. Seeing this, Erin led Yun Shan straight to the Great Elder's house.
The Great Elder was an old man with gray hair, and when he saw Erin entering the room, his eyebrows and beard were all smiling, "Xiao Lin, who is the person behind you?"
Seeing the Great Elder's narrow eyes, Erin blushed, "Grandpa, let's get down to business!"
The eldest elder is Erin's grandfather, Abba died early, and it has always been Grandpa who is taking care of their siblings, Grandpa often says that his biggest wish for the rest of his life is that Erin can find a good young man to marry her, but before marrying, you must bring it back to show yourself.
"Hello Great Elder, my name is Nuo Shan, and I am a passerby. Yun Shan took the initiative to speak.
"Good, good, good. The Great Elder said three good words in a row, and then asked, "I heard that you came out of that pond?"
"Yes. Yun Shan nodded.
"What's in that pond? Is it really a heavenly river?" the Great Elder said in surprise.
This time it was Yun Shan's turn to be surprised, "How do you know?"
"Haha. The Great Elder stroked his beard and smiled, "Sure enough. Someone went down many years ago, but because he couldn't hold his breath, he didn't come back at the end, and then he thought about it and guessed that it might be a river. ”
"This man is so clever, he guessed right, it is indeed a big river. Yun Shan gave a thumbs up and praised.
Erin's face suddenly darkened, and she stood aside in silence.
Seeing Yun Shan's suspicious eyes, the Great Elder opened his mouth to explain: "That person is her father, my son, but unfortunately, he is no longer there. ”
Yunshan let out an "oh", not knowing what to say, so it was better to simply be silent.
The Great Elder touched Erin's head, and then said, "Since you are really an outsider, you are our guest, don't worry, for guests, we have the best wine and food to entertain." ”
"Thank you, Great Elder. Yun Shan bowed down and thanked him.
"Erin, take Noshan around the stockade. The Great Elder commanded.
When Yun Shan came to the square again, he found that a lot of people had gathered here, and they were surrounding the heavy sword wrapped in strips of cloth on the ground.
"How can this thing be used as a weapon? It's not easy to just be able to hold it!" a voice from the crowd came over.
"Yes, Duka, don't talk nonsense, let's talk about it, where did you get such a piece of iron essence, it's really sunk. ”
"I'm not lying, it's true, the guy about our age, carrying this thing like he's playing, I think it's his weapon. Duka kept arguing.
"Yes, I saw that too. Tony next to him also said.
Erin suddenly thought, this Noshan seems to have come up from the bottom of the water with such a heavy iron rod, it is incredible, how did he do it?
"Now, it's him!" Duka said as he saw Yunshan from the crowd.
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and when they saw that it was such a handsome young man, they all laughed.
"Haha, is this kid? Duka, you have to make up the nonsense decently, you say that Odin can do it, as for him, I don't believe it!" said a slightly older man looking at Yun Shan who came over.
"Don't be rude. The Great Elder spoke, Nuoshan is a guest of our tribe. Erin said as she walked into the middle of the crowd.
Yun Shan looked at Duka and Tony, smiled, pointed to the iron rod on the ground and said, "Can I take it?"
Duka and Tony nodded hurriedly.
Then in the incredible eyes of everyone, this young man named Nuoshan picked up the iron rod with one hand, as if he was carrying an ordinary long sword, Shi Shiran followed behind Erin, and walked around the village.
