I saw the flame rolling on the bank, but the bank was narrower, and after a few clicks, it fell into the river, and a cloud of smoke and water vapor rose from the surface of the river.

I picked up the torch that fell to the ground, only to see the girl, and rolled in the water a few times without movement, I didn't expect to finish her in a few clicks, I looked back at Wang Jinhuai behind me, saw him hiding by the stone wall not far behind me, saw that I beat the girl into the river, and then walked towards me.

I packed my things and looked to see that my ankle hadn't been scratched. We went back to the front.

From a distance on the river in front of us, there were shiny things, coming down the water, getting closer and closer to us. I didn't know what it was, so I stopped and let Wang Jinhuai lean against the edge of the stone wall, and I put out the torch again.

The glittering thing was getting closer and closer to us, and only then did we realize that there was a school of fish-like things swimming in the river. There are dozens of them, the head is like a duck, the body can't be seen under the water, the shining thing is its two eyes, I have never seen this kind of thing, I thought it was some kind of poultry, I haven't seen it, so I came to Wang Jinhuai and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Wang, do you know what this is?" Wang Jinhuai replied: "I have never seen such a strange thing. ”

At this time, the group of strange fish has swam to the place where the little girl fell into the water just now, only to see a few strange fish found the body of the little girl, and they were biting together, the black corpse, the churning water splashed everywhere, and a strange fish actually jumped out of the water with an arm in its mouth, and by the light emitted by the strange fish itself, I saw that the body of the strange fish was no different from our usual grass carp, but it was one meter long. If we had encountered them in the water just now, they would have bitten them in a few clicks, and now I know why all we encountered were broken corpses, all eaten by strange fish.

Soon the group of strange fish ate up the carcass and continued to swim downstream, and the surface of the river suddenly darkened again, and it became calmer.

I lit the torch again and led Wang Jinhuai to the front of the river, the broken corpses and dry bones under my feet growing more and more. Stepping on his feet, the sound of clicking came, Wang Jinhuai has experienced so many things now, and he is bolder, and he is not so nervous to follow me.

The further you go, the narrower the river becomes, the waterless bank is also narrower, the two of us stick to the stone wall and walk cautiously forward, who knows if there is that kind of strange fish in the water, when you walk more than 100 meters, the river is divided into two, both are not very wide, that is, the wide one is about four meters, and the narrow one is more than three meters. This is narrow on our side. I stopped and looked, to get to the river, we're going to wade through.

I turned back to Wang Jinhuai and said, "Mr. Wang, let's keep going, let's go over there." Wang Jinhuai was not polite: "Wang Daochang, I think we should go down this way." ”

We walked along the narrow river again, the river was very quiet, the water was already flowing very slowly, perhaps because of the drop, the top of the river was much lower than before.

At this time, I only felt the earth tremble, and the soil on the top of the river in front of me fell into the water with a clatter, and I pulled Wang Jinhuai and ran back.

Feeling a safe place, we stopped, I saw the river behind me, more and more soil fell, and finally collapsed, blocking the river safely, the water over there could not flow, the water here also slowly dried up, looking at the gradually drying up riverbed, we simply stopped walking the narrow riverbank, and came directly to the riverbed, flowing shallow river water, to the mud blocking the river.

At first, I thought that the soil would collapse, and that there would be a gap in the fallen soil, so that we could go out from above and see that this ideal had been shattered again.

I turned around and said to Wang Jinhuai helplessly: "Mr. Wang, it seems that we have to go back, let's take a look at which river." ”

Wang Jinhuai silently followed behind me, didn't say anything, and followed me to another river.

Coming to the place where the two rivers forked, we walked up the bank close to our side, and walked to the top, the river went higher and higher, and after a while, the top of the river was less than three meters, and the water was also rapid, and the sound of the claming in this closed river was particularly harsh. A short distance up, the river was already insufficient for us to walk upright, so we had to bend down and walk forward.

The torch in my hand was extinguished, and I lit another torch, and the water was flowing shallower and shallower, and we walked forward.

I don't know what kind of danger awaits us in front of us, but no matter what, I must find a way, I still have to go to the capital, and I can't die before I get out of the army.

After walking a short distance, the river came to an end, and there was a large space in front of it, the river water did not flow in the river, but fell from the top of the head more than two feet high from the water surface, like a waterfall, scattered directly in this large space, the water splashed, forming a water mist on the water surface, this is a cave-like space formed by the water flow, and I don't know how many years of erosion was formed.

The two of us found a drier place where we couldn't splash and sat down. I'm fine after walking for so long, Wang Jinhuai is already looking very tired, we lean against the stone wall of the cave, and I stick the torch on the soft soil.

Sitting on the ground, I looked at the place where the water was coming down, it was a hole two meters wide, the current was not very fast, and it flowed down the four walls of the hole. After looking at it for a while, I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't see anything. This is when I saw that with the flow of water, there was a handful of grass that fell on the water, and my mind suddenly thought that there were several roots of trees in the hole that I don't know what kind of tree they were. Although it was washed away by the current, there is no doubt that it was the root of the tree.

This means that we are not very far from the ground, and now the key is how we climb up, which is more than two feet high, and there is no ladder or wood here. I told Wang Jinhuai the news, and he was already very tired, and he was a little excited.

After all, we have one more hope of going out, so I said to rest first, and then find a way to see if there is anything we can borrow.
