Chapter 54: Two Little Birds Fall into the Water
Death or Unknown?
When I saw the whirlpool, I realized that the door to leave here was opening in front of us, but I didn't know where it was going.
The fully unfolded whirlpool, with a little hollow in it, like a shadow leading to the netherworld, is terrifying.
I was still looking at the whirlpool in a daze, and Liu Dongxi yelled at me, "Don't look at it, run away!" ”
Where to run? Bottomless water lurks on all sides, and the only place where you can stand is about to be swallowed by a whirlpool! I just want to get out of this situation.
Seeing that I didn't react, Liu pushed me again, and I asked him, "Where are you running?" Can you get out of this whirlpool? ”
"How do you know if you don't try?"
"Come on, you can't swim! I can't swim anymore! ”
I used to learn some about survival in distress in the water, but my work had nothing to do with it, so I almost forgot about it. And no one would teach how to escape in such a huge whirlpool, I just remember that if you were sucked into the whirlpool while swimming, you had to stretch out your limbs to increase the resistance, so that you could fall to the bottom of the whirlpool as soon as possible and escape from the water.
No amount of stretching is as big as this tree, so I think it's safest to stay in the tree and wait until it's almost down to the bottom before falling into the water. Although you will have to face the pursuit of monsters in the water after that, it is better than being sucked into the whirlpool and unable to get out, and being suffocated inside.
There is at least a glimmer of hope.
Liu Shifu obviously didn't have much experience, so I gave him a brief analysis, and although he didn't understand, he still agreed with my decision.
By this time the trunk had begun to cut in the direction of the whirlpool, and the whole tree was shaking, so we found a few strong branches and held ourselves up so as not to be shaken down in advance.
The moment I entered the whirlpool, Liu Dongxi said something in my ear, and the sound of the water was so loud that I didn't hear it......
The whirlpool was amazingly huge, and the tree carried the two of us like a boat on the sloping wall of water, and it was so smooth compared to outside the whirlpool that I didn't have to make much effort to stabilize myself.
The water is spinning at a very fast speed, and the sight is terrifying and bizarre. There were countless dead branches and leaves, scraps of flesh in front of and behind us, and I saw the big golden fish appear below us, its head moving downward with the current, and I don't know how it came out of the monster's belly.
After about one or two hundred meters of descent, judging by the diameter of the whirlpool, it must have been reduced to the lowest end, and I felt that my previous plan was too optimistic, and it was difficult to have the courage to jump into the wall of water in such a terrifying environment at the bottom of the whirlpool.
Liu turned his face to gesturing at me, and I saw that he seemed to ask me when I was going to jump. But I don't know when to jump down, and maybe what I learned before is not right for this unimaginable natural phenomenon. Seeing the wall of water slowly closing in front of my eyes, I had no choice at all, let alone the courage to jump into the water to escape.
This turned out to be a whirlpool formed by a water leak!
The bottom of the whirlpool was dark and dazed, and I didn't know where it led, and I felt Liu Shi grab me and tear it outward, and I kept saying something. I couldn't hear a word in the midst of this loud noise, only to hold on to the branch in my hand. I realized that after so much suffering, it was going to end eventually. And what ended it all was my unintentional fire and the decision I made on the basis of a mere impression. My heart was filled with remorse, and I almost burst into tears.
Without further thought, the tree grew faster and faster, slamming into the water, staggering across the sinkhole, and shaking us both down.
I looked at the round sky above, and fell into the mouth of the water with relaxation, my mind went blank, and the little dangkang fell asleep soundly in my arms.
Liu Dongxi is not far from me, and I don't know when he has tied a rope that is not long to my hand, so the two of us are not separated.
The downspout was long and winding, and the two and a pig were washed down the drain like a piece of food crumbs. I don't know how long it has been falling, it feels very long, but it is estimated that it will be a short time, I fell into the water with a large amount of water, and before I could react, I was pressed into the bottom by a large number of water columns, and then I came to my senses, and desperately dragged Liu Dongxi and Xiao Dangkang to avoid the water column upstream. At the moment when I came out of the water, I was so surprised by the familiar scenery in front of me that I almost threw Xiao Dangkang out.
Although the water level has become extremely low, and the characteristic dome has become even higher, I can still tell that this is the underground lake where Liu Dongxi fought against the fish in the first place, not to mention that there are still glowing fish swimming around in the countless puddles on the high stone wall left by the receding lake next to it, which will light up the darkness.
Liu Dongxi also shouted excitedly: "Brother An! We're back! ”
Xiao Dangkang was alarmed by this strange scream, twisted his little ass in my hand, and grabbed my thumb again.
I smiled and said, "Hit it right, let's climb the mountain for a while!" ”
Liu Dongxi hurriedly agreed, fluttering towards the shore, I saw that this guy was really smart, and it was indeed not a fraud that he couldn't swim at all. Although it has only been in the water a few times, this dog planing is indeed well practiced.
We rested for a while and then began to climb up, this section is not very difficult to climb, and in some places you can even walk a few steps with your waist straight and up the stairs, but our physical state at this time is really not suitable for this kind of activity, and we are tired and panting after a while. This is Liu Dongxidao: "Brother An, rest, I really can't walk!" ”
"No, it's the last sprint, go up and talk about it!"
Liu Dongxi sat down, dead or alive, I looked at him like this, and knew that he really couldn't walk, so I also sat down to rest.
At this time, Xiao Dangkang was still sleeping soundly, I really don't know where such a little thing came from so sleepy, my pocket was full of water, and I just climbed the mountain to throw it in for convenience, and people didn't open their eyes.
Liu Shifu came over to take a look, reached out and pinched Dangkang's little face, and said with a smile: "This little gadget is fun, go back to my sister-in-law, I must like it." ”
As soon as I heard him mention my wife, and thought that I would be able to go back to reunite with her soon, my heart suddenly became hot like a gang, and I couldn't sit still anymore, and I must move on.
It may be that victory is in sight at this moment, and I feel that I have recovered very quickly, and I have regained my strength after sitting for a while.
As soon as the two of them stood up and were about to climb up, Liu Dongxi sighed, pointed to my back and asked, "Brother An, what are you carrying on your back?" ”
I was taken aback by him and spat out, "You're going to scare people to death!" Acting in a ghost movie! I've got hair on my back?! ”
Liu Dongxi said: "It's really like a Mao ......"
I hurriedly reached out to touch it, and sure enough, there was something hair-like on my back, brittle and hard, and I broke my hand when I touched it, a bit like ......
Liu looked at me, "You're also stained with that thing!" ”
I shuddered when he said this, and I turned my hand back to pounce, and my hair broke off and fell to the ground in a sparse manner. Liu Shixi turned around suddenly, pointed to the place where I was sitting and said, "There are still there!" ”
I turned my head suddenly, oh my God, the whole stone wall was full of scratching and big balls of hair, and I felt all the shivers in my body from the inside out, what was this?
