Chapter 47: Jumping into the River
This aisle was very long, and the three of them ran for three or four minutes, and they hadn't reached the end yet, but the cat people behind them were chasing very closely, and there were constantly terrible screams coming from behind them.
Wu Song's scalp tingled when he heard this, and he suddenly thought, "What if there is a dead end ahead?" Aren't they going to be blocked? Thinking of this, Wu Song broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, Wu Song's worries were superfluous this time, and after running for a few minutes, Wu Song heard the sound of "bang, bang, bang" of the water, there is indeed a water source here, and there is hope if there is water, thinking of this, Wu Song's three hearts perked up, and they ran out of the aisle even more desperately.
The sound of the "whooshing" water was louder, Wu Song and they followed the sound of sleeping water, and finally ran out of the aisle, what appeared in front of them was a turbulent underground river, this river looked very wide, I am afraid that I would have to swim for a while to reach the other side, and the river was a little muddy, no one knew how deep it was, but judging from the speed of the river, Wu Song thought that this river was not like a shallow river.
But now there was not much time left for Wu Song to think, the screams of the cat people behind him were getting louder and louder, and a large number of cat people were rushing towards this side like crazy.
Wu Song did not hesitate at all, he shouted to Wang Jin and the two, "Jump into the river, let's swim over." With that, one jumped into the water. Wang Jin listened to Wu Song's words, and did not hesitate at all, jumped hard, and dragged the stone down by the way.
"Wang Jin, you birdman, do you want to kill the Sprinkle family? Sprinkle the house without water! The stone was dragged into the water by Wang Jin and cursed. Wu Song and Wang Jin were stunned for a moment, they didn't expect that the stone didn't know water. In fact, this is not surprising, Shi grew up in the Shaolin Temple in the Western Regions since he was a child, and in that place in the Western Regions, it is good to have water to drink, and where can people be familiar with water.
By the time Wu Song and Wang Jin reacted, the stone had sunk to the bottom like dumplings in the water. Wu Song was in a hurry, so he quickly took a deep breath, plunged his head into the water, and went to save the stone. Wang Jin didn't have such a good water nature as Wu Song, so he could only float on the surface of the water and wait for these two people.
The river was very deep, and Wu Song dived for a while before reaching the end. Because the river was very muddy, Wu Song couldn't open his eyes at all, and he could only rely on his keen hearing to roughly estimate the location of the stones.
"Alright, there it is." Wu Song heard the sound of churning on his left hand, and his heart was happy, so he swam over there.
Rescuing the drowning was a skill that Wu Song had to learn in his previous life, so he didn't have much effort to pull the stone back to the surface. "Bang", two heads rushed out of the water, it was Wu Song and Shishi. Wu Song took two sharp breaths, and he now knew how fresh the air was.
When the stone was just dragged onto the water, his brain was a little confused, it was estimated that he had drunk a lot of water, and Wu Song was not polite to him, and he woke him up with two ear scrapers. After the stone woke up, he immediately shouted, "Wang Jin, Wang Jin, dare to drag Lao Tzu into the water, I will fight with him." As he spoke, he spit out a mouthful or two of muddy river water from time to time.
Under the reminder of the stone, Wu Song looked around, and when his eyes shifted to the shore, he suddenly found that it was densely packed with a large number of cat people, to Wu Song's surprise, those cat people were all kneeling on the ground reverently at this time, their hands forming a cross, and they were actually kowtowing to him.
The catman's mournful cry was still there, but Wu Song felt a sadness for no reason, he felt as if these catmen were suffering a lot.
Although Wu Song didn't know where this strange idea came from, he quickly looked away, and reason told him that he should swim to the other side now, and get as far away from these cat people as possible.
But Wu Song's eyes turned around, but he didn't see Wang Jin's shadow, he didn't believe that Wang Jin would ignore them, something must have happened to him.
Sure enough, the stone pointed to a bend not far away and shouted, "Big brother, I saw Wang Jin here, where is it, what...... What, that...... What is that? At the end, the stone's voice trembled slightly.
Wu Song had a bad premonition, and when he turned his head to look at the place where the stone was pointing, he was immediately taken aback, only to see that on the water surface at the bend, a half-meter-long fish tail was suddenly exposed, which was actually gray-black, and next to the fish tail was Wang Jin's head, but at this time, his head was constantly floating up and down, as if something was pulling his body.
Wu Song was startled, he thought that there would be no monsters in this water. But he had no choice but to grasp the stone with one hand and slash hard towards the bend with the other. When Wu Song was about two or three meters away from Wang Jin, the strange fish suddenly jumped out of the water and swam upstream at a flying speed, as if deliberately avoiding Wu Song.
The strange fish jumped out of the water for a short time, but Wu Song glanced at it and still saw it clearly, sure enough, in this ghost place, nothing is normal, the strange fish is a human-faced fish, with a human face and hands, but dragging a fish tail, the whole body is pitch black, as if he has just crawled out of a mud pit.
Wu Song couldn't care about the surprise, he hurriedly asked the stone to check Wang Jin's condition, and he paddled with one hand to make everyone float on the water. The stone beat his chest and knocked his back again, and finally woke Wang Jin up.
"Brother, that mermaid just now—"
"I know, Brother Wang, let's go ashore now." Seeing that Wang Jin was not discolored, Wu Song's heart was also secretly relieved, he felt that his right arm was already sore, and if he didn't go ashore, he was afraid that he would sink.
Wang Jin listened to Wu Song's words, and knew that he shouldn't talk nonsense now, so he hurriedly put one of the stones on his hand, so he could also share a little weight for Wu Song.
Just as Wu Song and the three of them were about to swim back, suddenly, they felt that the water around them was getting more and more rapid, as if a big hand was desperately pulling their bodies. Wu Song was naturally flustered and hurriedly rowed back, but the water was too turbulent, and Wu Song's arm did not have much strength, so he had to be carried downstream by the water.
A few minutes later, Wu Song felt as if he was about to fly, his body was fluttering, it turned out that at this time, he, Wang Jin, and the three of them were being washed out of a hole by the water, and along with the waterfall, Wu Song and the three of them were falling down rapidly.
"Smack." Wu Song felt his ears "buzzing", as if he was about to become deaf, which was also his last feeling.
In a trance, Wu Song tried his best to open his heavy eyelids, but all this seemed to be in vain, he felt too tired.
Immediately afterward, his consciousness blurred and he fainted.
