Chapter 116: A Waterfall at the Edge of the World (Part I)
"Is there really a single magnetic pole substance?" Ji Xiaoran had heard of such a concept, but he had never seen the real thing.
"Just because it's impossible in the world doesn't mean it's impossible here." Zhou Xian took out the compass in his pocket and threw it to Ji Xiaoran, "Look, the compass is turning blindly." "Recommended Reading TV//
Ji Xiaoran took a look, it was really. The hands kept spinning in circles like a puppy chasing its own tail, but it didn't stop at the designated moment.
"It's useless." Ji Xiaoran casually received it into the ring, and then stood beside Zhou Xian, "This is still a little different from being on the sea." ”
"Well, the water is a little fishier and the wind is stronger."
The water reflected a little starlight, and the wind swirled on it, and the smell of water blew on the clothes of the two, bringing peace that had never been seen before.
Zhou Xian hopes that the next journey can be so peaceful and smooth.
"The wind seems to be getting stronger." He patted Ji Xiaoran's shoulder, "Do you want to rest for a while?" ”
"What time is it?" Ji Xiaoran turned his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist, "It's only ten o'clock, it's still a little early, right?" ”
After all, they are all stubborn night owls, and ten o'clock is the beginning of the night, and she hasn't finished reading it yet, she has just entered a conflict point.
"I don't sleep now, but I don't have to sleep when I get to my destination in the middle of the night." Zhou Xian subconsciously glanced at the map, but his eyes immediately changed, "We're almost there." ”
Ji Xiaoran didn't react for a moment, she followed Zhou Xian's gaze, and the ink dots that represented their location were not far from the icon of Na Ruomu. But looking to the west, she couldn't see any signs of trees, "Could it be a deviation in the position of the icon?" ”
"Did you hear anything?"
Zhou Xian's words turned out to be clueless. Ji Xiaoran looked at him a little confused and shook his head.
Zhou Xian sank his heart, and the faint sound of the water hitting had begun to reach his ears, coupled with the increasing wind, he instantly figured it out, "The speed of the boat has become faster, the wind has also become stronger, and there is a waterfall in front!" ”
"So the towering Ruomu looks like it's only a little bit in Kunlun Void Nine Mountains!" Ji Xiaoran also heard the sound of water falling, and she immediately lay on the edge of the boat, looking at the western horizon, until the top of the big tree appeared in the roar of the water that was getting bigger and bigger.
"It's over, it's over." Zhou Xian only felt that he had begun to breathe poorly: they were not only close to the waterfall, but also at the top of the waterfall, listening to the movement of the water, and feeling that the drop of the water was definitely not small.
"Don't panic, there's a stone ahead." Ji Xiaoran pointed ahead.
The speed of the ship had now increased from sixty miles per hour to nearly one hundred and two. Standing on the bow of the boat, Ji Xiaoran could already see that there was a narrow semicircular crack in front of him, from which weak water fell, like the sea falling into an abyss.
The weak water is divided by some boulders, where a high splash is stirred.
"I'm not affected, and when I'm close to the boulder, I jump up with a rope and stop the boat first."
"Nope." Zhou Xian immediately denied her idea, "You are equivalent to jumping out of the car at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour!" ”
"It's better than rushing straight down from a place where you don't know how high!" Ji Xiaoran's subordinates adjusted the position of the void boat, and at the same time, the spar rolled back, already trying to accelerate in reverse, "Senior brother, you will obviously still be affected by weak water, you see that you are already not as tall as me!" ”
"But there is no way for the Void Boat to isolate the confines of weak water, and even if I leave the shelter of the boat, it will not be any worse." Zhou Xian insisted, "Even if I'm not as tall as you now, I'm a boy after all." Also, I don't have a way to control the circle, you need to stay on the boat and slow down. ”
These words were so shocking that Ji Xiaoran had nothing to say. She didn't know where her anger came from, so she threw the rope beside her to Zhou Xian hard, "Okay, you go!" It's best not to fall to your death! ”
Zhou Xian, who caught the rope, pulled out the scarlet blade that had been tied to his thigh, and wrapped the rope around his arm, "Then it only depends on how low you can reduce your speed." ”
Zhou Xian climbed onto the edge of the boat, holding the edge with both hands so that he could stabilize himself in the wind. This time he was a little glad that his body had become smaller, which helped him maintain his balance. Although Ji Xiaoran had exhausted all his strength, Xuzhou was still moving forward slowly, and it was impossible to completely stabilize it.
The boulder was on the edge of the waterfall, and Zhou Xian, who was standing on the edge of the boat, could already see the water falling directly from the sky, but he couldn't see the point. Tall wakaki grew up from the mist below, and the closest branches were ten miles from the edge of the waterfall.
The virtual boat surpassed Zhou Xian's position in an instant and was crumbling on the edge, and the huge roar of the water not only stimulated the eardrums of the two of them, but also impacted the hearts of the two of them.
"Senior! The hedron can't hold it anymore! Ji Xiaoran could clearly feel that the spiritual power in the spar was decreasing at a rapid rate due to the crazy extraction, but this situation did not allow her to replace the spar. Once the formation has no way to slow down, the void boat will rush directly down the waterfall at high speed and fall into the abyss.
Well, well, come on! Zhou Xian bit his teeth, then jumped up from the edge of the boat from his feet to his waist, almost rolling directly on the boulder, and then he forcefully inserted the rope from the bow of the scarlet blade to the rock, and then removed the rope wrapped around his arm, "Xiao Ran, how long can the spar last?" ”
"I don't know!" In the roaring sound of water, Ji Xiaoran also needed to shout at the top of her throat so that Zhou Xian could hear her words clearly.
"You just hold the rope and directly squeeze out the spiritual power in the hedron to slow down as much as possible, and then receive the void boat into the ring! I'll pull you over! ”
Ji Xiaoran wrapped his feet in the rope a few times, then held the rope tightly with one and put the other hand on the spar. She took a deep breath, then mobilized all her spiritual power to stimulate the formation, frantically absorbing spiritual power, and rushed in the direction of Zhou Xian. At the moment when the spar lost its last trace of strength and turned gray, Ji Xiaoran's consciousness was on the void boat, and at the same time, she jumped up to Zhou Xian's side with the relay under her feet, "Senior! ”
Even with the help of inertia and momentum, Ji Xiaoran's bouncing force was still not enough to cross the distance of more than twenty meters, and at the moment when the virtual boat entered Sumeru, she fell into the weak water, if it weren't for her feet being entangled, she might not be able to withstand the erosion of this water with one hand.
Even with the help of the Scarlet Blade, the moment Ji Xiaoran fell into the water, Zhou Xian still felt an obvious force pulling him forward. He gritted his teeth and began to pull the rope, not trying to pull her over first, but moving the rope along the rocks, hoping to get Ji Xiaoran close to some rocks so that she could borrow strength.
