Chapter 224: Earth-shattering
And when Lu Jinping fell, he suddenly found that he was as light as a swallow, as if floating in the air, and at the moment of landing, he held Yunzi to make an elegant posture, sliding forward along the water, like a dancer on ice, splashing, and finally stopped, he knelt on one knee in the swamp, still holding Yunzi in his hand, like a mandarin duck couple at the end of the curtain in the ice dance.
Lu Jinping didn't know why he was able to make such an elegant posture without any damage and his movements were so fancy.
He saw the snow sculpture sinking in the swamp in front of him, let go of the clouds, threw himself at the snow sculpture, grabbed the snow sculpture's head and dragged it out of the water. The snow sculpture cooed, and its eyes had lost their lustre, but their eyes lit up when they looked at him.
Yunzi was also stunned by Lu Jinping's reaction just now, and was thrown into the water by Lu Jinping, choked on two mouthfuls of water, wiped a handful of mud on his face, and was about to complain in disgust, when he found that Lu Jinping was holding the snow sculpture and calling there, he was nervous, and quickly plopped and stepped on the water and ran over.
The two of them held the head of the snow sculpture out of the water. The snow sculpture's body did not move, and it was still allowed to soak in the water, which may be more comfortable under the buoyancy of the water than lying on the grass, as long as its head is not submerged in the water.
Lu Jinping held the head of the snow sculpture and kept stroking it and said: "Like the wind, we are safe, thank you for saving us, you are so brave and smart, we are safe now, you have a good rest." ”
Yunzi hugged the snow sculpture's neck tightly, put her face on the snow sculpture's furry head and said, "Thank you, thank you for saving us." ”
At this time, the sky was still pouring rain, and the downpour was falling. Lu Jinping looked around, it was pitch black all around, he couldn't see anything, and the thunder and lightning were still shining in the distance. But the light was no longer enough to illuminate their side.
Lu Jinping said to Yunzi: "I'll go and see where we are, find a place to shelter from the rain first." ”
Yunzi smiled bitterly: "It's all drenched like this, what kind of rain are you hiding?" - Go and see. ”
Lu Jinping smiled, seeing that Yunzi was holding the head of the snow sculpture steadily, without any difficulty, he knew that Yunzi could not perform martial arts in the air or in the water. When he reached the land, it was her world, so he went to the shore of the swamp and went high. However, he had barely taken a few steps when he suddenly stood again, for he felt the speed of the water rushing down with him increasing and carrying with him some dross.
The dregs felt the same as the floods he had encountered earlier in the Tongzhou River. It was something they hadn't fallen into the water before, and a terrible word flashed through his mind - torrent!
Before the crossing, he had seen a report that a family was playing in a resort by the stream at the bottom of the mountain, but suddenly a flash flood broke out, and the family was not spared. A sign before a flash flood is that the water becomes cloudy and carries with it tree roots or sand and gravel in the deep soil.
Earlier, when the snow sculpture led them down and glided. Lu Jinping saw the general situation around him clearly by means of lightning, and the place where they fell happened to be where a mountain col was. The swamp beneath them proves that the place is relatively low-lying, and if a flash flood occurs, it is very likely that it will come for them.
Lu Jinping didn't care whether his guess was correct or not, he didn't dare to take the risk, and immediately turned around and said urgently: "The flash flood is coming, hurry, quickly move the snow sculpture to a higher place together." ”
Yunzi was startled. She had just experienced the horror of the flood, and if it weren't for the snow sculptures, the two would have died in the flood, and now when she heard the flood again, her body shook reflexively, and she didn't want to think about it. He got under the snow sculpture's legs, lifted it up, and hobbled towards the heights.
Yunzi's martial arts are strong and his strength is not small, but this snow sculpture is too huge, and it is still very difficult to carry on his body.
Lu Jinping hurriedly went over to help him, holding up the huge body of the snow sculpture, it didn't take much effort at all, Yunzi felt a lot lighter on his shoulders, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, Lu Jinping's strength was really not small, with his help, Yunzi's steps became brisk, and the two of them worked together to carry the snow sculpture to the shore.
At that moment, a huge roar rumbled towards them from the valley, and the earth began to tremble.
Lu Jinping struggled to look up, and couldn't help but shout in fright: "It's not good, landslide!" ”
He saw that the originally dark mountain shadow in the night quickly collapsed, and it was impossible for the top of the mountain to be lowered suddenly, there was only one possibility, and that was to collapse the mountain peak!
Fortunately, this peak is not the one they are on, although it is next to it. The earth shook like a mountain, with a roar of thunder, and they were unsteady on their feet.
The landslide that Lu Jinping said, of course, Yunzi can't know its horror from various media like Lu Jinping, but the feeling of the earth shaking and shaking the mountains is enough to make her soul fly, is it just out of the flood and thunderstorm, but she wants to die at the bottom of the mountain?
The two of them rushed forward like crazy carrying the snow sculpture desperately, but fortunately this area was a barren grassy slope, and there were not many trees and thorns, so there were no major obstacles.
Lu Jinping's running speed was unexpectedly fast, although he was holding a snow sculpture as heavy as a buffalo on his head, but his running speed actually exceeded Yunzi's, Yunzi was thrown off, and he stumbled in a hurry, and fell on the grass full of stagnant water, splashing everywhere.
Lu Jinping heard the deafening roar and chased after him, and knew that the landslide had chased them, but he still immediately stopped rushing forward, and instantly returned to Yunzi's side, lifted her up with one hand and clamped her under her armpit, and rushed forward like a wind.
The roar behind him was like a galloping horse chasing after him, and the speed of his feet was exerted to the limit, and he only felt that the trees and mountains on both sides moved backwards rapidly, as if his feet were not touching the ground. Yunzi was caught under his armpit, and she couldn't move at all, she originally wanted Lu Jinping to put herself down and run with her, but she found that although Lu Jinping was holding her, he was still holding a heavy snow sculpture like a bull in his right hand, but the speed of running far exceeded her, and in horror, she could only look at Lu Jinping's jade carving-like face blankly.
Lu Jinping kept running forward at a rapid pace, until the huge roar behind him basically stopped, he slowed down, looked back, and saw that the black fog in the sky had moved away from him, so he stopped, looked around, and confirmed that there was no danger, and then he put down the clouds and the heavy snow sculpture.
The snow sculpture barely raised its head, cooed a few times, and looked at them with sparkling eyes.
Yunzi stood there in a daze, looked at Lu Jinping and said, "You, why are you running so fast?" Even my master is not as good as you, but your light skills are so good. Oh my God, you, you deceived me so hard, I thought you were a weak scholar, but it turned out to be hidden. ”
In fact, Lu Jinping was also stunned by his reaction just now, he couldn't imagine that he could actually run over the collapsed landslide and escape from the hands of death, and he was still holding a person and holding a heavy snow sculpture.
He couldn't say why, he said: "When people are facing life and death, they can always give full play to the maximum potential of their bodies, nothing, you know, I don't know martial arts, sometimes what light skills can I do, it's a joke." ”
Having said this, Lu Jinping himself also felt that indeed, he should have a kind of physical potential that burst out at a tense and critical moment.
After hearing Lu Jinping say this, Yun Zi was suspicious, he was really frightened, sat on the grass full of rain, panted and looked back at the landslide.
At this time, after the thunderstorm had poured in the middle of the night, the heavy dark clouds had become a little translucent, and the moonlight on the clouds faintly penetrated, illuminating the surrounding darkness a little, although not enough for them to see the surrounding scene clearly, but enough for them to see the general outline.
They were stunned by what they saw. -- The peak on which they had been, the one down from which the snow sculptures had rushed them, had collapsed most of the mountain, and they had run fast for fear of being buried in it.
Yunzi asked with palpitations: "What should I do?" Why don't you wait for your snow sculpture to regain its strength, and then take us away. ”
Lu Jinping thought to himself that he would only have one order, that is, to let the snow sculpture go to Xiaoxiao, so after the snow sculpture recovered, he would only fly to the East China Sea with them, which would be farther and farther away from the same state, and it would be troublesome, so he could no longer rely on the snow sculpture, and he had to find his own direction to go back, but now I don't know how far away they are from the same state.
Lu Jinping said: "Let's wait for dawn first, we can find the direction after dawn, now there are torrential rains and mudslides everywhere, if you don't get involved, or you are submerged by the collapsed mudslides, it is better to be still, it is better to wait first, and when the rain stops at dawn, we will find a way." ”
Yunzi also felt that this was reasonable, and quickly looked up and looked around, and found that they were in a relatively gentle hill, and there were no high mountains around, even if there was a landslide, they would not be able to see them here, so he was a little relieved, and asked, "Then, are we staying here like this?" ”
"It's best to find a cave or something to hide from the rain."
Yunzi rolled his eyes and said, "Let's hide under the wings of the snow sculpture, its wings are so large that they can be used as a roof." ”
Lu Jinping smiled and said, "This is an idea, then let's get in." ”
So the two of them slept under the wings of the snow sculpture, and the snow sculpture seemed to know Lu Jinping's intentions, and the wings spread a little on one side, allowing them to hide more comfortably underneath.
Hiding under the snow sculpture is like a big umbrella covering the two of them, avoiding the pain under the torrential rain.
Lu Jinping said: "Is it cold or not? ”
Yunzi grinned and said: "It's not cold, I just leaned on the snow sculpture, the snow sculpture is very warm, although the furry is wet, but the body is as hot as a stove, I want to sit like this for a while, and the clothes on my body can be dried." (To be continued.) )
