Chapter 143: Zhang Yi's Mausoleum 12

Of course, to swim out of the water. Then you have to stuff the jade pendant and map fragments in your hand back into your arms. Otherwise, without two palms paddling, we really can't swim, who let us practice from a young age is to use all four limbs at the same time to swim.

The lack of oxygen in my brain is getting worse and worse, and the situation does not allow me to delay, if I can't swim out of the water before I wake up, then all my previous efforts will be in vain. Thinking of this, I didn't make any delays, and took things into my arms with the fastest record of my life. When you're done with this, kick the water with both feet and paddle up with both palms. Suddenly, I was like a frog, and I swam a meter or two with a brush.

After swimming about 10 meters to the bottom of the water, I guess it shouldn't be too far from the water, after all, the river is not wide, so the depth should not be too deep. Rivers are often more than 20 meters wide, and the deepest place is only 40 or 50 meters. This river is seven or eight meters wide, and at most thirty meters will be to the end. Besides, I haven't been dragged underwater by the water ghosts!

By this time, my brain was completely deprived of oxygen. Even if I blow water with my mouth, it doesn't have any effect. Now, what supports me is that if you hold on for a few more seconds, you'll be on the water. That's why I didn't give up, and I still told myself not to give up.

However, the house leak happened to rain overnight! I couldn't support it on my side, and it was probably only a few meters away from me when it surfaced. Suddenly, there was a vision underwater! A silver-white light flashed, and the surrounding water suddenly began to flow slowly in a swirling form as if it had been cast by a spell.

Whirlpool? That's my first thought! This is often seen in rivers, and according to geologists, it is formed by crustal movements in the riverbed. But am I really that unlucky? Happened to come across it so coincidentally?

How powerful are the whirlpools in the water? I don't think I know! All I knew was that as soon as it appeared, I gave up completely! Because my whole body had been sucked into the whirlpool, and it was constantly spinning down with the current.

'Mom and Dad! My son is sorry for you, for not being able to give you more filial piety, and for not being able to bring you a grandson to inherit the lineage! Master, the disciple can't help you, and he can't help you fulfill your wish to revive your master. ’

In the intervals when my mind was getting heavier and heavier, more and more confused. I've got my last words ready! It's a pity that I couldn't write it down with a pen, otherwise I could have asked a passer-by to help carry a letter. Hehe! I've seen so many ghosts, and I don't know if I'll become like them after I die.

Consciousness, breathing, perception! Slowly, slowly, everything is like the past. I can't hear anything, I can't see, I can't smell anything. I just felt as if my body was getting colder and colder, as if I had been in an ice cave for hours in the middle of winter. Could this be what it's like to be after death?

A strange-shaped stalactite hangs on the mountain stone, and drops of water flow out of the gap between the stalactites and fall to the ground, making a ticking sound. The sound of the water flowing in the small stream is composed into a beautiful music of nature.

This is where people come when they die?

It was my first thought when I opened my eyes, but soon, I didn't think so! Because I clearly feel that I am cold, doesn't that mean that I am still alive? You know, a ghost is a creature that doesn't have any sense of cold and heat! And now I feel cold, which is the best proof that I am alive!

Thinking of this, I suddenly came to my senses. Trying to open his eyes, he realized that he was lying on a large reef that had surfaced. Around the big reef is a small river four or five meters wide, and the water washes up from time to time, so it's no wonder I feel cold all the time!

'This must be in the mountains, right?' ’

Look at the surrounding walls of rocks, as well as the stalactites overhead. I was puzzled, how could I be swept into such a place by the river? Originally, I thought I was going to choke to death by the river, but I didn't expect that I would be carried to such a place by the whirlpool in the river in a coma. This is really a bit of a catastrophe!

It is said that if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing! But honestly, I really don't think so! At least not yet, I don't feel any blessings coming my way! In this low temperature of only seven or eight degrees Celsius, I am now covered in **, my legs are already cold, and my teeth are fighting. I'm sure that if I don't find a fire or dry clothes, I'll have a bad cold and maybe even a high fever in a short time.

If this is outside the nine peaks, it would be fine, I could have hurried back to town. But now this is the inside of the mountain, and the devil knows how to get out of here. If it weren't for the faint light reflected from the water, I wouldn't be able to see a meter around me.

"Alas! I don't know if Lin Yuxi and they escaped! ”

Ever since I fell into the water, I haven't seen Lin Yuxi and them. I don't know what happened to it now! Forget it, no matter how much you worry about it, it's useless, so let's find a way out of here first. Otherwise, even if I don't choke to death by the river, I will freeze and starve to death sooner or later.

Thinking about it from the moment I approached the mountain, I felt very strange! Why did that kind of supernatural thing happen? Isn't there a great array of ghosts here, why are there water ghosts in the water? Why don't they start as soon as we get on the bamboo raft, and wait until we get close to the peak?

I sat on the reef and thought about a lot of doubts, but it didn't seem to be of much use. Because there is no one to answer for me, I have to find the answer to all this slowly.

Oops! My stuff!

Thinking of this, I quickly touched my arms, but fortunately, the jade pendant and the map fragments were still there. I can't imagine that I just stuffed these things into my arms. It's unbelievable that these things weren't washed out of my arms by the whirlpool's suction after I was unconscious by the whirlpool!

That's just the way it is, though. It's as if I'm cold and hungry right now, and I'm deep inside an unknown mountain that you can choose not to face, but it's really here.

Maybe after I lost consciousness, I drank a few sips of water, and my nose smelled a little choking, sour. The brain is also groggy! Fortunately, maybe the time I was in a coma had an effect, and my physical strength was at least seventy or eighty percent. That's enough!

I sat down on the reef and tidied up my clothes. In fact, there is nothing to tidy up, that is, to re-wrap the jade pendant and map fragments in a handkerchief and stuff them into your pants pocket. That way, no matter how drastic the action is, as long as my underwear is not ripped off, then the thing will not disappear.

Strange to say, I've been soaking in the water for a while, and the map fragments and jade pendants are not even wet by the water, you must know that the handkerchiefs wrapped around them can twist a lot of water droplets. Could it be that all these things are waterproof? This seems to be the only explanation for why they stay dry.

Speaking of waterproofing, this map fragment is made of sheepskin smeared with a special material, which can remain unchanged for thousands of years, so waterproof is naturally trivial. But what about the jade pendant? No matter how good the jade is, there will be at least some tiny water droplets on it, right? However, this simply does not exist!

Could it be that everything in ancient times could be waterproof? Of course, this is a topic worth studying. But unfortunately, I'm not a lover of this, so I don't have that much effort to delve into it. If a lover of this field comes to me, I can provide one or two ancient things out for him to study and study!

Now it's imperative to get out of here first! I got up and stood on the reef and looked intently in the direction of the current. From top to bottom, then I'll just follow the direction of the current!

As the saying goes, where there is water, there is a chance to survive. Why? First, where there is water, there will be other animals and plants, and there is a good chance that these animals and plants will be able to solve your hunger problem! Second, it is where the water can flow, which means that there is no dead end.

In fact, this thing was read to me by Lin Yuxi when he was fine, and he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon, so I really don't know what to say.

Now that you know the direction of the water, it's good to follow the direction of the current. Originally, I was going to swim, but when I went down into the water, I was shocked to find that the river inside the mountain seemed to be shallow. I stood down with my whole body, and the river was only up to my knees. This is a bit hard for me to accept!

How did I get washed up in such a low place? At this moment, I really wanted to swim against the current and go above the current to see what was going on. However, survival ** overrode my curiosity. At this time, of course, it is better to find a way out first. To hell with everything else!

Finally, I took a step forward and started my own survival in the icy water, following the direction of the current.

It's black, almost pitch black two meters away. I couldn't see anything, only the sound of the river flowing and the stalactites dripping. It would be nice if there was a light or a strong light torch now, but unfortunately, this is only an assumption, not a reality. Therefore, I had to keep my head down and watch the emitted light on the surface of the water carefully to see if my feet had tripped over the reef or something. As for the front, my hands were always stretched straight and never put down. If someone could look at me from the side, they would have laughed at me for looking like a blind man touching the road.

No way, the environment is like this, even if I am not blind, now I am the same as blind.

Because of this, I estimated that I walked in the water for almost half an hour, at most a distance of two or three hundred meters, which is also strange, along the way, although all the way twists and turns, I also touched a lot of reefs, but on both sides in addition to the hard stone wall, it is still a stone wall, there is no cave that can accommodate people at all.

"Damn it!"

Yes, I don't know how many times I've gotten out of the water. All of this was because my feet stumbled all the way to the rocks that protruded from the bottom of the water.
