Chapter 20: Quicksand Emerges
The tide is receding. Last night's huge tide had all receded, but this time the coastline did not return to its original state, but retreated more than ten miles inward compared to yesterday's coastline......
On the new beach that was exposed, there were more than a dozen stones of different shapes, some the size of a person, some the size of half a person, and some the size of a head, scattered all over the beach, and through the rising sun in the sky, I could see that there were several small holes in the stones for the sunlight to pass through.
If I'm not mistaken, the two stone sounds last night came from these stones. The first time I heard the sound of the Xun was very small, if there was any, it should have been formed at low tide, when the sea washed away and the stones were not fully exposed; In the early hours of the morning, we heard for the second time, that the stones were completely exposed, and that the sea breeze was strong after the tide receded, and it was the music that came out of the sea breeze, which was naturally much louder.
It's incredible! How could such a scene appear in front of me......
I stood in the early morning sun for a few minutes before I came back to my senses, turned my head and called Mazi: "Mazi!" Wu Hao! Come and see! ”
"What are you looking at...... Mazi Bar snorted his mouth, he hadn't drunk much water since yesterday, and his mouth had already been dry and cracked after being blown by the sea breeze for a day: "It's dawn!" ”
Seeing that I was standing still, Asako stood up and walked over while stretching, and when he saw the beach I was looking at, he was stunned.
"! That's what we heard last night? "Mazi was a little angry, you must know that last night we were too scared to poke our heads out from behind the rocks.
"That's not the point!" I suddenly became excited: "The key thing is, this should be the location of the Forgetful Cliff Beach!" We've found it! ”
Mazi was stunned for a moment: "Do you dare to go in if you find it?" This place is not Jinghenan, it is a tomb, this is a big tomb, and it is the tomb of a person who is in the dark, it is not so simple! ”
I rubbed my hands together: "Why don't you dare?!" The more gloomy the tomb, the less threatening it is to me! You protect me outside, and I protect you when you go inside! ”
Mazi took a step back disdainfully and looked at me with disdain: "Come on, in the Afang Mausoleum, there are things that you run faster than anyone else!" ”
I kicked it over: "You're still playing with me and disappearing, don't say anything to anyone!" It wasn't the first time I was last time, of course I was scared, but this time I have experience, it's okay
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)! ”
I turned around and began to pack my backpack, and the doggy woke up, looking completely unill, running on the ground, chasing a crab the size of a fingernail. I tore a piece of bread and threw it to it, and then threw a loaf of bread to Mazi: "Eat quickly, let's go over and have a look when we're done." ”
Mazi was obviously a little hesitant, thinking about it, in this case, handing over his life to me as a newborn calf is naturally much less confident than handing it over to the Seventh Master and the Budai monk.
Ten minutes later, the two of us had breakfast with a dog, packed our backpacks in good spirits, and headed for the beach.
"That's not right!" As he walked, Mazi pointed to the sea in the distance and said, "This yellow sand beach is exposed at low tide, but we didn't have it when we came!" It means that it is usually not seen, and we don't know when the tide rises, in case we are trapped inside after entering, and then encounter the high tide, it will really become fish food! ”
I frowned, and what Mako said was right. I tried to recall the tidal knowledge of junior high school geography, hoping to find a clue as to when the tide would rise again.
But he soon failed, and the geography he had learned very well was now forgotten.
According to the words of the seventh master, five o'clock in the afternoon of the sixth day of the first lunar month yesterday should be the time of high tide, if you only estimate according to normal knowledge, the tide rises at more than five o'clock, and the tide almost recedes at one o'clock in the morning, and the two are about eight hours apart, and if the tide rises again is also eight hours, it should be about nine o'clock in the morning.
I glanced at the time, and it was half past six in the morning, that is, according to the nine o'clock high tide, we still had two and a half hours to go. It's too dangerous for this amount of time......
But if we look at it in terms of twelve hours or twenty-four hours, we have plenty of time.
"No matter!" I don't know where the determination came from: "Go over and see, if the situation is not good, we will come back immediately." ”
Mazi laughed: "I'll just say, the Gu family has been passed down to your generation, how could it become like this!" Now it seems, you have potential! ”
I didn't bother to take care of the pockmarks, and walked towards the yellow beach.
The smell of sea salt was in the air, and I licked my mouth, and soon I was standing on the beach that had just surfaced.
Warm. It's really warm. Red too
The sun has risen, shining on this fresh beach, it is not at all the feeling of the saline-alkali land before, but more like the beach in Sanya.
The sand under your feet is very fine, and a few small crabs crawl over from time to time, which is very pleasant.
I walked up to a rock, stretched out my hand and touched it, it was very slippery, very cold, I don't know how many years these stones have stayed here, if this is really the cliff beach of forgetfulness, they have been guarding the sable cicada for nearly two thousand years. For 2,000 years, they have played that beautiful tune countless times, but they have never heard it again.
"It's just a beach here, what does it have to do with the Forgetful Cliff Beach......" Mazi muttered while touching a stone, and lowered his head to blow it in the hole, "woo" sounded, but it was quite good.
I was about to open my mouth to make fun of pockmarks, when the fine sand under my feet suddenly began to stir!
"What's going on?!" Before Mazi and I could react, our feet had been stirred into the sand by an incomparably strong force, and we couldn't move at all, so we could only watch each other's bodies slowly be buried in the sand!
"! I just said, let's not come over! "No matter how good Ma Zirao is, there is nothing to do at this time, so he can only grin and scold me.
"Get out! If it weren't for the fact that you blew that stone because you were idle, would it be like this?! "I didn't show weakness and scolded back, forgetting that if we continued like this, we would both die here!
"Didn't I, I think about calling Diao Chan out!" Mazi actually said such a shameless reason!
The sand was already up to our waists, and I stretched out my arms to find a fulcrum, but the sand around me had turned into quicksand, and I couldn't do anything at all. I hurriedly put the puppy strong man on my head: "You go quickly, strong man!" Go find the Seventh Master to save us! ”
"Wang-woo-woo-" The strong man was so anxious that he swirled around my head, but he didn't leave.
"I'm convinced, too!" The pockmarked eyes on the side were about to pop out: "I, the hero of Mazi I, at this time, I actually want to pin the hope of survival on a two-month-old puppy!" You're sick too! It knows what a! ”
I have no reason to refute it, but I really can't help it! When I was anxious, my feet suddenly felt unloaded, and I hurriedly tried to find a point of strength, but my body shook suddenly, and the quicksand around me staggered, and my whole body leaked out of the hole......
