I looked around in fear, but there was nothing but the red river, the black sand, and the eerie black boat.

"Brother Dong, did you hear the voice?"

"Voice? What was that? I didn't hear that. Dong Tian looked around blankly, his expression didn't look like a fake.

Could it be that I heard it wrong, but I heard that voice so well, it shouldn't be.

"It's weird." I helped Dong Tian up, thinking secretly about what happened just now. Dong Tian knew that my ears were sharp, and asked me what sound I heard.

"Just now, when I got on the boat, the voice was very desolate, and a little cold, and I said that." I think back to what I just saw. "....Water ....... turbidity ....... reborn soul ......"

"What? This sentence? Isn't that on the stele? Dong Tian took the skull that had fallen to the ground in his hand and lit the torch again.

"yes, hey, look!" Suddenly, I saw the shore that was fading away, and under the light of the torches, the stone tablet actually emitted a dark red glow.

"See what?" Dong Tian didn't seem to see anything, "That stone tablet, what's wrong?" Is it a baby? He asked me curiously.

In my eyes, what I see at this moment is the back of the stone tablet, that is, the side engraved with the Taoist priest and that sentence, and at this moment, it seems to be alive, with bright eyes and moving mouths.

"Ahh I broke out in a cold sweat.

Could it be that the voice just now came from the stone tablet? The statue of the Taoist priest? I had this feeling in my heart, but the scientism I had learned since I was a child made me intellectually disagree with this conjecture.

"What are you doing? Come over and take a look at Su Xiao. Dong Tian walked up to Su Xiao, helped Su Xiao up, saw that I was in a trance, and called me speechlessly.

"What do you kid think?"

I caught Su Xiao, held Su Xiao in my arms, and looked at his pale face. "It's nothing, it's just a little tired."

Dong Tian glanced at me and didn't speak.

Su Xiao's face actually looked red, and his clothes were neatly dressed. "Looking at it like this, Su Xiao shouldn't be fine." I checked it and said to Dong Tian.

"It should be, but I wonder, how did Su Xiao get on the boat? We don't know anything about it, and the ship apparently came down from above. Dong Tian looked at the water flow around him and said with a frown.

"Do you say it's possible, Su Xiao is the same as you last time, you don't know anything?"

As soon as I said this, Dong Tian was stunned, "It's hard to protect, I don't know." ”

At this time, the speed of the boat increased again, and after the place where we had just passed, the current here was very fast, and although no one was driving, the boat seemed to know the way, and went down the river, and did not touch the rocks and black sand on both sides again.

"I'll go, God, this Nima's is better than a machine." Dong Tian looked at the ship in amazement.

"Su Xiao can't wake up, what should I do? Brother Dong. "I looked at Su Xiao, who was still unconscious, and I was a little worried. If only Hong Ye should have been, he must have understood these things.

By this time the boat had reached the center of the river and had become very stable.

"Arwen, where do you think this ship is taking us?" Looking at the darkness around him, Dong Tian looked worried.

"I don't know, let's take a step at a time, do you think it's possible, Su Xiao is on this boat just to lead us onto the ship?" I suddenly asked Dong Tian.

"Huh? You actually suspect Su Xiao? Dong Tian glanced at me dissatisfied.

I know this thing is misunderstood. "No, I mean, the guy behind this or the dirty thing."

"Who knows, hopefully. I'm also looking forward to what we'll encounter next. Dong Tian looked at the unknown hidden behind the wide river and let out a long sigh.

What's ahead? I also asked myself in the bottom of my heart.

I looked at Su Xiao in my arms, my little face was flushed, and my breathing was smooth, but I didn't know what was wrong, and I couldn't wake up.

The blood-like river was churning all around, and I suddenly remembered the mass grave that I had encountered before in the Huayuankou incident of the Yellow River, and Su Xiao said that there might be an underground river. I'm afraid this river in front of me is it!

Thinking about it this way, it suddenly became clear, no wonder so many corpses could be gathered, with this river, what else is impossible. It's just that I don't know why the river that was originally above actually dived again, from a dark river to a real bottom water.

Speaking of this water, in fact, those of us who have been digging sand for generations can also be regarded as eating the water of the Yellow River. I heard my grandfather say that in the past, there were more people eating on the Yellow River, including boaters, merchants, platoons, and even those who specialized in fishing for things. Compared with these people, the Yellow River gradually disappeared after the diversion, and our sand digging has changed from the original sand digging to sand digging, and has multiplied on the Yellow River for generations, to say that the people who know the most about the Yellow River are not those geographical experts, not those archaeologists, but us sand diggers, these people who take the Yellow River as their home and as the root of their life.

It's just that my father told me that after a long time, many things are gone, including the rules.

I heard my grandfather say that when I used to pan sand, sometimes I wouldn't want gold and silver, and I would do a line of rules, and I wouldn't take what I shouldn't take! We live on the river, but we don't eat it.

"Arwen, look, can you go ahead?" Suddenly, Dong Tian yelled at me, and I retracted my thoughts.

Looking ahead, the water that had been wide in the place was suddenly narrowed by the light of the torches, and the water flowed through it with a sudden rapidity.

"Hold on, don't fall, it should be fine." I looked at it and had to gamble on it.

As it approached, the ship got faster and faster, and the wind was all blowing in my ears, pouring into my mouth and nose. I hugged Su Xiao and looked at the oncoming water.

"I wiped it, it's exciting." Dong Tian estimated that he had never seen this kind of natural and drifting excitement before, and shouted loudly. I think he's probably forgotten where.

"Brother Dong, be careful, hold on tight!"

"No problem, haha." Dong Tian laughed, hugged the skull, and nailed the crossbow arrow to the hull of the boat. I think this thing actually came up with such a solution, but it's really strong.

Thundered!

With a loud thud, the boat flew into the air with the river, followed by the whirring of the wind all around. I rubbed it, I didn't see it before, but after this turbulent place, there was a waterfall directly, and we and the boat smashed it into the ground in mid-air along the water.

"Ah" Dong Tian's eyes were blue with fright, and he didn't dare to roar anymore, clutching the hull of the boat.

"Brother Dong, it's okay, hurry up." As soon as I opened my mouth and reminded Dong Tian, a wave of water hit me, choking my brain roared, and I almost fell on my head.

"I'm rubbing, it's so fierce." I let out a secret sigh, feeling the breath I had just held on to my breath before I eased up.

There was another loud bang, and the boat landed smoothly on the water, and I hugged Su Xiao tightly. Then it felt dark in front of us, and under the force of gravity, we sank with the boat to the bottom of the river.

Fortunately, the water level here is relatively high, and the boat was caught up by buoyancy after a few sinks, and slowly floated upward. I vaguely saw Dong Tian using that crossbow arrow to jam himself on the hull of the ship, and there was nothing wrong.

Suddenly, a huge wave hit, and one of my heels flipped out of the hull of the boat. The era of sand digging will be water, and my grandfather is no exception.

I swam vigorously in the irritable water, pushing Su Xiao to swim towards the gentle place.

At this time, Dong Tian also saw me falling, the boat had regained calm, but the speed was a little fast, I followed behind the boat, Dong Tian grabbed the crossbow arrow in his hand at one end, handed it to me, and pulled me towards the boat.

"Get Su Xiao up first." I hurriedly said to Dong Tian. Earlier in the river, Su Xiao was unconscious and choked. Fortunately, Su Xiao's body was not heavy, so I lifted Dong Tian and pulled her up. Then I swam to the side of the boat and climbed up.

"I'm fucking tired." I let out a long breath and touched the water on my head. Who knew that when I got it down all of a sudden, my body didn't stink anymore, and the original smell and filth were washed clean.

"Haha, you've got a good bath." Dong Tian said with a smile. I ignored him, my body had just soaked in this water and shivered.

I glanced at Su Xiao, her face was ugly at this moment, she was choked when she thought about this toss, and I remembered the sanitary napkin I saw behind the stone before, and I couldn't figure out that this Su Xiao was the eldest aunt.

I heard my mother and Aunt Tian Qi next door say that a woman can't catch a cold when she comes to something, and if she catches a cold, she will get seriously ill. "What can I do?" I looked around and saw that there was no place to stop.

"Brother Dong, Su Xiao has a cold, if he can't bear it like this, what do you say?" I can't help it, just ask Dong Tian.

"Why don't we get off the boat? It's so far away, I don't know where this place is, see if there is a way out. ”

I nodded, but when I looked up, I saw a river bank not far ahead, as if the water had broken here.

"Brother Dong, look."

"Hey, where is this water?" Looking at the calm river in front of him, which seemed to be like a lake, Dong Tian opened his mouth in surprise.

It's just that in Dong Tian's eyes, the river water is clear, but in my opinion, it exudes monstrous fierce flames, and all that enters the eyes is red, which is extremely intense.

"Brother Dong, this place is not right, wait for us to go to the shore as soon as possible."

Dong Tian also saw that something was wrong and nodded.

The speed of the ship had completely slowed down by this time, and it was very smooth.

I carried Su Xiao on my back and tied my clothes behind my back. There was the sound of the river crashing all around, but suddenly I heard a strange sound mixed in with the sound of the water.

The sound was at first far away, but in a short time it slowly came from the shore to the vicinity of the ship.

Click, click I turned my head sideways and listened carefully, the sound of my nails scratching stones slowly turned into the sound of nails scratching the hull, and now Dong Tian also heard it, and looked at me with a pale face.
