Chapter 36: Desperate Survival (Part 3)
She was unwilling, and turned to look around the Rong Valley.
I saw mountains on all sides, full of cliffs. It was surrounded by a heavy black, which was as dazzling as ink in the daytime sunlight.
She sat down on the ground again, not crying or making a fuss, silent, and closed her eyes sadly.
"It's too early to say that it's desperate. ”
Xiao Nan stood with his hands in his hands, putting on a grandmaster demeanor, and then leaned down to the rock wall inch by inch to find out if there were any hidden holes and gaps.
See what he means...... Obviously, I don't believe in Meng Yao's supernatural powers!
Seeing him like this, Meng Yao didn't care about being angry, but got up and searched with him. However, a whole day passed, and the two of them found nothing.
They sat down tiredly, looked at each other, and suddenly smiled at each other. Knowing the desperate situation, knowing the crisis, at this time, do not despair because of fear, do not worry about hardship, live and die together, and cherish each other.
Dry food is no longer enough for a few days. Xiao Nan didn't bring too much with him this time. He divided the few silver tea cakes that were left and gave them to Meng Yao to eat.
The crystal jade coffin did not say a word, looking up at the verdant banyan tree. The turbulent river flows, breaking the silence of the Banyan Valley.
Meng Yao stood facing the river, dressed in white, like a fairy in a painting, and suddenly sighed leisurely:
"Legend has it that the river returns to the ruins, because it goes away with a torrent, and there is no end, and it is called the ruins. The lives of mortals like fireflies, fleeting, and so small.
"When Xingzun still had his life, he returned to the ruins for thousands of years, never rose or fell, and did not change. ”
Xiao Nan saw the beauty picturesque, with beautiful eyebrows and blue face, and he was stupid for a while.
"I didn't expect you to have such a sentimental side......" he thought to himself.
Meng Yao's aesthetic image when he first saw him in the forging iron workshop has always been cold and capable.
Later, when she sent herself back to Nanli, she showed kindness, and when she returned to the mountains to find Lu Feng, she showed her responsibility, and when she faced the strong enemy Yan Wuzhi, she showed determination.
All of this shows her strength.
However, at this moment, she is so weak, as if she is now should be the real her.
Xiao Nan's eyes rolled wildly, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he couldn't help but want to laugh with her.
"According to your words, the Nanli tribe is called Nanli because it has its back to Nanli Mountain, and the Youhe tribe is called Youhe because it reproduces along the ruins...... Well, there's a river?"
He was suddenly stunned, remembering his thoughts when he was quenching his body in Hantan-
If this river is Guixu, and the Guixu River behind your own bamboo courtyard is winding from the depths of Nanli Mountain, then if you can reach your own bamboo courtyard from here?
"Yao'er, take a look with your supernatural powers, go down the river, is it auspicious or evil?" Xiao Nan grabbed her and followed the river to the bottom of the cliff.
The river rushes down and pours into the bottom of the mountain from a low place, not knowing where it leads.
Meng Yao's mind is dexterous, and he can understand it at one point, and the jade finger pinching the trick opens the eyes of the fortune. I saw white mist coming out of the river, mixed with a little gray.
"It's possible, but it's risky. She withdrew her magical powers and looked at Xiao Nan solemnly, "Shall we try it?"
Xiao Nan did not answer directly, but calmly analyzed: "The river is turbulent, and it can only go downstream, and it is difficult to go against the tide. Therefore, we only have one chance, life or death. ”
"In addition, we actually have another way out, which is to feed on grass and trees, and hold on until you can climb this cliff with you, and then take me away. ”
"Of course, along the way, maybe I've cracked the maze. ”
"It's a life-or-death game. If you take a risk, what you will find in the lower reaches of the Guixu River is not necessarily us breathing, but more likely two wet corpses. ”
"The person who picked us up would even guess - this is not a martyred couple, but a miserable mother and son. ”
"We really ...... Do you want to try it again?"
Meng Yao looked at his serious appearance, only to see that his bright eyes were bright, and his expression was as serious as a little adult, but he couldn't stop his kawaii little face.
She couldn't help but chuckle: "I, Meng Yao, have traveled thousands of miles to come, when have I ever been afraid of life and death." My father was seriously ill...... I have a reason to fight for my life...... What about you?"
Xiao Nan was silent and spoke suddenly.
"If you don't experience death and tribulation, how can you be extraordinary and unearthly. Death and life are in the hand, and change is from the heart. The earth cannot be buried, and the heavens cannot be covered. My Xiao Nan's life is up to me. ”
He stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes were far away, and he cheekily plagiarized a classic quote from his previous life, but he quietly hit the heart of a certain girl.
"Death and life are in the hand, and change is from the heart. The earth cannot be buried, and the sky cannot cover ......"
Meng Yao was stunned and muttered.
She followed the prestige, and saw a small figure in harmony with the mountain scenery, as if it was tall, standing between heaven and earth, calm as a mountain, revealing a grandmaster.
"yes...... I was born before I was born, and I am ......old when you were born," she couldn't help but think of the feelings of an unscrupulous child.
The two dived side by side and down the river.
The icy water pierced into the bone marrow, and the torrent lapped against the two of them. Xiao Nan's limbs contracted, like a thousand-year-old turtle, naturally running a turtle-shaped pile, wrapped in the torrent and moving forward quickly.
From time to time, an underground undercurrent suddenly surged, stirring the river with great force, rolling him up and hitting the raised stone ridge.
He hurriedly used his dexterity to avoid it with the help of the current.
Suddenly, a warm jade hand grabbed his wrist. He looked over in amazement, and saw the girl smiling in the muddy river, like a fairy.
The jade hands tightly clenched his tender white hands, as if they were worried that he would be swept away by the undercurrent.
The two of them closed the distance, and as the water rose and fell, they went deep into the ground in a blink of an eye.
The river went all the way down, getting darker and darker, and even with Wu Yuan's protection, Meng Yao gradually couldn't see the route clearly.
Xiao Nan was even more unbearable. He was only a rookie on the second layer of the quenching body, and he sank in his stomach in one breath, and was almost collapsed by the impact of the undercurrent.
If it weren't for the mysteriousness of "Twelve Ancestor Fists", he would have already vented his breath.
Under the turtle-shaped stake, the pores around him seemed to be wide open, and he slowly swallowed oxygen from the river.
However, the road was much longer than the two expected, and the light of day was not seen for a long time.
After a long time, Xiao Nan finally couldn't support it anymore, swallowed several mouthfuls of river water, and fainted.
In the process of dissipating consciousness, the only thing he remembered was a warm palm, holding on to himself.
......
Xiao Nan...... Wake up! Xiao Nan...... Wake up, Xiao ......" shouts came and went, waking him up from his coma.
"Vomit...... Vomit...... cough cough ......" Xiao Nan spit out two mouthfuls of river water, coughed dryly, and raised his eyes to see Meng Yao, who was anxiously calling for him.
"You're finally awake, and you're scared to death! I thought you were ...... Thought you ......" she cried anxiously, her face still stained, and when she saw him open his eyes, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that she suddenly noticed that something was wrong. When she looked down, her face immediately flushed with shame.
I saw that my whole body was wet, highlighting my figure extremely exposed.
Especially on the chest, the scale is usually invisible when it is covered by white clothes, but at this time, the clothes are soaked by the river water and stick to the skin, immediately showing a round and firm peak.
Xiao Nan's eyes were straight, staring at the wonderful spring light in front of him, and his nose was bleeding, ready to squirt out at any time.
"Stinky rascal, don't look at it!"
The girl pressed his little face with one hand, and hurriedly covered his chest with the other, her face flushed with shame, and she wanted to bury herself in the dirt.
