Chapter 221: The Flood of Life and Death

Lu Jinping wanted to struggle, went to the stern of the boat to see what was going on, and stretched out his hand to support it, but this time it happened to be propped up on a bulging and elastic thing, and he heard Yunzi exclaim, "Oh, die, you?" A slap hit Lu Jinping in the face.

This slap didn't have much strength, she didn't rush to push Lu Jinping's hand that was still on her chest away, but waved his hand to hit him, she really didn't figure out which was more important, or she didn't want to figure it out at all.

Lu Jinping said sorry at this time, withdrew his hand, grabbed the boat gang and sat up, at this time, a lightning bolt passed, and at this moment, what he saw couldn't help but make him gasp. --I saw a huge tree, slowly drifting down with their boat. At the same time, a half-cut oar is diagonally inserted into the trunk.

Oops not good! Lu Jinping secretly shouted, could it be that the floating tree trunk smashed the oar at the stern of his ship? Then the ship will run out of power.

Lu Jinping hurriedly struggled, grabbed the side of the boat and staggered to the stern to take a look, and sure enough, half of the oars were gone.

At the same time, he felt that the water surface was growing upwards where his feet were stepping, much faster than the previous rain poured down the water, and he couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly squatted down to check, but at this time, there was no lightning, and the darkness couldn't see what was going on with the boat, so he could only touch it with his hands. In this mode, a heart is half cold. It turned out that the stern of the ship had been cracked by the big tree, and the water was pouring into the cabin.

Lu Jinping was a little panicked, he subconsciously wanted to tell Yunzi behind him the news, but the words stopped immediately. Can't mess around at this time, this news will only make her nervous and won't help. He was about to stand up, but his palm felt something seem to be messy in the water. This surprised him again.

He scooped it up and looked at it in front of him, and found that there was a lot of scum in his hand, the water of the Tongzhou River was as clear as a mirror, where did so much scum come from? In horror, she reached out and fished out the water outside the cabin, but her hand was still full of debris.

He scooped it up and put it in front of his eyes to make it carefully, and at this moment. In the distance, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, clearly illuminating the surrounding situation. He finally saw clearly, and in the palm of his hand were branches, shrubs, and some intertwined roots!

And this lightning also attracted the attention of Yunzi, who had originally focused all her attention on Lu Jinping, to the surface of the river, she screamed, stood up in panic, and said, "Brother, the river is so muddy, there are some messy things." Isn't it ......, a rising flood? ”

Flash floods, floods?

At this time, lightning slashed by, and Lu Jinping quickly found that the direction of the lightning was in the upper reaches of the Tongzhou River, which was originally far away and vaguely unclear. And now, it's rapidly moving towards the top of their heads.

Say. There was a torrential rain in the upper reaches of Tongzhou, and the rainfall was only heavier than theirs, which caused the river to rise rapidly, which was what he had feared before. He had already told Feng Tingshi, I wonder if Feng Tingshi had already taken measures? He didn't have time to think about that now, he wanted to think about it. The first is how to save the lives of the two of them, because their ship has lost power, there are no oars, and the stern of the ship is broken. Water is pouring in.

It is imperative that we get out of danger as soon as possible.

Summon a snow sculpture like the wind!

Lu Jinping didn't think about it, took out the bamboo flute left by Xiaoxiao from his arms, put it in his mouth, and blew it hard. The silent sound of the flute pierced through the darkness and spread far away.

Although this voice could not be heard, Lu Jinping could feel it, it pierced the sky and flew to the end of the night, summoning the snow sculpture that had saved him like the wind.

However, what surprised him was that he never saw the figure of the snow sculpture like the wind.

Lu Jinping looked up at the sky, only to see lightning piercing the darkness, rumbling thunder like thousands of horses galloping overhead, lightning shot straight down from the clouds, pierced the night, and extended to the rolling river. One after another, a terrifying power grid has been formed. Lu Jinping has never seen such a terrifying scene. It occurred to him that there was lightning everywhere now, and the ferret was flying in the air, and it was likely that it would be struck by lightning, and it was probably because the snow sculpture did not dare to come and save him for safety.

At this time, Yunzi said urgently in the back: "What's the matter?" ”

"Don't be afraid, it may be that the water is rising, let's quickly paddle to the shore."

Yunzi said, "Then you should shake the oar." ”

Lu Jinping staggered to her side, and said in a deep voice: "It was a big tree that hit our boat just now, which broke the oar behind our boat, we can only use the boat penny to prop the boat to the shore, you use your hands or find a wooden plank to paddle, don't worry, this river is not too wide, we will be able to reach the shore soon." ”

Lu Jinping grabbed the penny, picked it up, and inserted it into the water, but until he reached the end of the penny, he still didn't insert it to the end, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.

It seems that the flood caused the water level of the river to rise rapidly, which means that the penny can't help.

Lu Jinping let go and threw away the boat, what's the use of keeping useless things? His hands were scratching at the wall, looking for a plank or something, but there were only large and small branches.

Yunzi was rowing with a wooden bucket scooping water, rowing a few times, and said to Lu Jinping in horror: "I feel that the boat is leaking?" There was a lot of water, and it didn't rain so fast. ”

Yunzi said as he withdrew the scoop of scooping water in his hand and desperately scooped the water out, Lu Jinping knew that he couldn't hide it, so he had to say in a deep voice: "The collision just now has cracked the stern of the boat, and the boat has entered the water, so we can only swim to the shore." ”

The water scoop in Yunzi's hand fell into the water in the cabin, and his voice trembled a little, and he said, "But, I, I don't know how to be watery." ”

Lu Jinping pulled the wine bag tied to her waist, put it in her arms, and said: "Hold this wine bag tightly, you won't sink, I will pull you to the shore, my water nature is not the best, but there is no problem to cross this river, don't worry." ”

The entire ship was already more than half submerged, and the water was soaking to their knees.

The thunder in the sky rumbled above them, and at the same time, lightning illuminated all around. Yunzi looked at Lu Jinping, suddenly threw down the wine bag, desperately rushed over and hugged him tightly, hugged his neck, and said, "It's all my fault that I'm so willful and drag you down." Wait a while for the ship to sink, you leave me alone, swim ashore by yourself, do you hear? ”

Lu Jinping hugged her little waist and said, "How can I abandon you?" Even if we die together, I can't leave you behind! ”

A bright smile appeared on Yunzi's face, her eyes were shining at him, and suddenly, she stood up and kissed Lu Jinping's mouth.

The kiss of forgetfulness eclipsed the moment of the storm.

However, before Lu Jinping could taste the sweetness of Yunzi's fragrant tongue, the hull of the boat finally sank into the water completely, and the two of them were also soaked in the river water.

Yunzi didn't know how to water, but Lu Jinping held her armpit and said, "Don't worry, there's me." ”

As he spoke, he tied the two wine sacs to Yunzi's chest and back, supported her half of her body to the surface, and then grabbed the wine sacs with his hands and began to paddle towards the river.

Yunzi was half above the river, so he calmed down a little, and said with a forced smile: "Or your idea is high, at first I didn't know what you were doing with two wine bags?" Now that I know that there is this benefit, I knew earlier, we should have brought a few more. ”

"Hehe, I'll drag you to the shore, you don't have to care, it's safe, but pay attention to the branches and trunks floating down the river, don't be hit."

Yunzi nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, I'll observe, you just paddle, I'll remind you when you get to the riverside, - huh?" Where is the shore? ”

Yunzi's words were terrifying, because a dazzling lightning bolt had just pierced the night sky, but she couldn't see the river bank that should be not far away.

Another lightning bolt struck, and Lu Jinping looked into the distance, and his heart was also chuckled, because under this look, he only saw the vast river surface, and the riverbank was no longer visible.

The river bank is not wide, not to mention looking forward in the center of the river, that is, looking at the opposite bank, you can clearly see the scenery on the opposite bank, but now there is a vast flood everywhere you look, and you can't see any scenery on the riverside, except for the surging flood, as if the world is involved in the torrent.

What's going on? Lu Jinping chuckled in his heart, and then he quickly understood that it must have been after the flood surged, which had flooded both sides of the riverbank. Because the terrain around Tongzhou is relatively gentle, there are mountains only dozens of miles away. The valley of the Tongzhou River is almost always low, low hills, especially the lower reaches of Tongzhou, which are wider, and if the flood water rises and overflows, it can quickly drown the banks for miles.

This flood has never been encountered before, Lu Jinping's heart is tightened, how can he go ashore if he can't see the shore? Now there is no choice but to continue to push the wine bag and swim in the direction of the river flowing, so that you will always stop at the shore if you move slowly.

However, Lu Jinping soon discovered that his water nature was simply not enough in this rolling flood. The complexity of the water situation is far more complex than he imagined, he used to only swim in the swimming pool or the Qingqing River, the river is relatively gentle, and the undercurrent in the flood surges, the surface of the river may seem calm, but under the surface of the water is all kinds of whirlwind turbulence, constantly sucking his body underwater. Fortunately, he kept holding on to the two bulging sacs to ensure that his body did not sink into the water, otherwise, he would have been buried at the bottom of the water.

The turbulent and complex water not only violently tore Lu Jinping below, but also ravaged the two wine bags and the clouds on the wine bags on the river.

Lu Jinping found that in the torrent, it was almost impossible for him to push the wine bag smoothly in one direction, because the water flow was chaotic and turbulent, so that his action of kicking the water could have little effect. Only then did he realize how small human beings were in front of nature. (To be continued.) )
