Chapter 087: Blackwater River
Sun Wukong jumped into the clouds again, and checked back and forth above the Heishui River, and sure enough, there was no trace of Tang Seng and the boat.
He jumped back to the shore again, scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry, jumping and jumping, but there was nothing he could do. "What should I do, what should I do?" he asked Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng anxiously.
Zhu Bajie couldn't do anything, looking at the river in a daze.
It was still Sha Seng who said: "Senior brother, don't worry, why don't I go down and take a look, I have lived in the quicksand river for so long, and I know a little about the river, I'll try it." ”
Sun Wukong immediately nodded, "Okay, okay, Senior Brother Sha be more careful, if you encounter a monster, lure him out and let my old grandson fight him." ”
Zhu Bajie objected: "It's so dark down here, you can't even see your feet when you look down, what do you rely on to grope around, don't touch the monsters, you haven't seen it clearly, and people will take you again." ”
This said, and the three of them were sad again.
Sun Wukong was so irritable that he slapped and pulled Zhu Bajie's two fan ears with both hands, "Then what do you say? Are you just standing here stupidly waiting for the monster to send the master up?" It seems that his means of bullying pigs have improved.
Zhu Bajie stretched his face and said, "Brother Monkey, aren't I thinking?"
"Think about it, think about it!" Sun Wukong slapped his brain door again without pity for the pig.
With such a shot, Zhu Bajie got a spiritual light, "Hey, I think it's okay, aren't we unable to distinguish the direction when we go down?" Brother Monkey, you make the golden hoop stick long, one end under the water, let Senior Brother Sha lead it, and explore the situation below, you lead the other end in the air and walk downstream along the river, so that Senior Brother Sha will not lose his way in the water, if you encounter any movement, your golden hoop stick can also feel it, isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Sha Seng also became more courageous and felt that it was feasible.
Sun Wukong patted the pig's head again with joy, "Idiot, this method is very good, you have come up with it." ”
Zhu Bajie's eyes turned white, "I said Brother Monkey, why can't you think of a way to fight, and you can think of a way to fight too?"
Sun Wukong touched the door of his head, "Your head is white, tender and flat, and it is easy and loud to shoot." As he spoke, he grinned and was about to fight again, but Zhu Bajie turned around and escaped.
Sun Wukong jumped into the air on the surface of the river, and the golden hoop stick became slender and slender, extending from the clouds to the water, standing near the river bank, "Senior Brother Sha, if you feel that something is wrong, shake the golden hoop stick, and Lao Sun will pull you up immediately." Sun Wukong shouted in the clouds.
"Okay," said the sand monk, and jumped into the water with the golden hoop stick, and sank into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
Sun Wukong pulled the golden hoop stick and slowly slid downstream, except for the fleeting ripples that glided on the water surface, the situation of the sand monk was completely unknown.
After sliding down the Heishui River for a long time, there was still no movement, Zhu Bajie couldn't see the sand monk, so he had to ask Sun Wukong anxiously: "Brother Monkey, what's going on in this river?"
Sun Wukong replied: "It seems that there is nothing," and then shouted to the river: "Senior Brother Sha, Senior Brother Sha, if you hear it and show your head, we can be sure that you are okay." ”
After a while, the sand monk surfaced along the golden hoop stick, "Senior brother, I haven't seen anything in the darkness down here, and I haven't heard any movement, where are the monsters, are we looking in the wrong direction?"
Sun Wukong pulled the sand monk up.
Since then, the three of them have been in trouble again.
Hui An stood aside and watched for a long time, and suddenly asked me quietly: "Lingzhu, the last time you saved Xiaoqian, you became that light, can you still conjure it now?"
I nodded slightly, "It should be okay, but I'm not sure how strong the light is." ”
"It's okay, it's okay to be able to do it like last time. ”
"You mean,,," I looked at the surface of the Blackwater River.
Hui An also nodded, "In the past, you lived in the West Sea as the pearl of the heavenly realm, and even the bottom of the sea could be illuminated. However, the West Sea was blessed by you at that time, and it was reasonable that the source of living water was endless, crystal clear, and illuminated. It's not like the river water is as thick as juice, and you can't see your fingers......" He stared at the river, hesitating.
"I'll go down and try it. "Seeing that the sand monk has been diving under the river for so long, I am a little bolder.
As I spoke, I walked towards the river, but fortunately I knew how to avoid water, and I could make daylight beads out of crystal, at least not like a blind man.
"Wait, I'll go with you. Hui An was not at ease, and followed closely.
"Sister Ling, what are you doing?" Zhu Bajie first saw me go straight to the river and jumped.
"Goblin, this is no joke. Sun Wukong also tried his best to dissuade him.
The sand monk stared at me with wide eyes, dazed and at a loss for words.
"Don't worry, I'll go down with her to investigate," Hui An said, "You are waiting for our news on the shore." ”
We can't be sure exactly how much the sunlight beads can illuminate. Hui An was afraid of getting separated, so I asked me to pull his arm.
The moment I entered the water, I silently recited the trick to avoid water, the river suddenly divided into two, drawing a road, we jumped into the road, the river on both sides converged in a blink of an eye, we suddenly fell into the vast darkness, just like Zhu Bajie said, we looked down and couldn't even see a part of our body.
Although we move freely, we have completely lost the ability to discern the direction, "Spirit Bead, release the light quickly." I felt Hui An's arm shake.
I felt a crystal stone, rubbed it on my hand, and suddenly radiated its brilliance, and the brilliance appeared, and my eyes also lit up, although I didn't say how far it was illuminated, but it was no problem to see our surroundings within a meter of one meter.
"Your light is really strong. Hui An praised, and he saw me at this moment.
With the light, the rest is much easier.
As we walked along the bottom of the river, we couldn't see anything but a dark cloud of ink all around.
Hui An said: "There is a long paragraph, Sha Seng has already investigated, let's quickly go to the front and continue to check, you pay attention to the movement around you, and tell me if there is anything abnormal." ”
We slow down because we don't feel the pressure and drag of the water at all, and flying underwater is no different from being in the clouds.
I don't know how far I walked, but I suddenly heard the sound of water waves flowing back in my ears, as if pushed by the wind, and as if it was absorbed by something on the side, and some of the water also changed direction, "Wait a minute," I pulled Hui'an, "The river seems to have diverted here." ”
Hui An also listened intently, "It seems to be different." "Look around, it's dark. Except for the light, there is still nothing famous.
I am sensitive to the direction of the wind, and the direction of the water flow is also along the force, so I intuitively led Hui'an in the direction of the water flow.
After walking less than ten meters, I saw a large hole next to it, and the water swirled very sharply because of the oblique diversion from here.
