No matter how bold I was, I suddenly saw myself facing the sky on my back, my face was pale, and I was scared when my eyes were closed and floating on the river, not to mention that there were others who couldn't see us, and couldn't hear our voices in front of me, so that when I saw that a few people on the river were ourselves, my first reaction was that we were really dead, and there were corpses floating in the river, and it was just the souls of a few people who were still busy jumping up and down.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." No matter how weird things are, I believe that no one wants to believe that they are dead, I was in this state of mind, I reacted from the fright, the first thing is to try to deny the possibility that we have died, in this case, whether this subjective denial is to cover my ears or steal the bell, or to deceive myself, anyway, I used this denial to calm myself down, stabilized myself and fell, fell back to the surface of the water and turned around to find the canoe that went down the river again, and swept up with the force,

The reason why I calmed down and didn't immediately go up to check whether it was the corpses of the five of us or anything else, but got into the canoe first, first because I saw it in mid-air, and we were actually more than ten meters away from the river, and secondly, no matter what it was, I had to get them out of the water, and finally and most importantly, I didn't want to do it alone.

So I got into the canoe with both feet, and I immediately sailed back to the shore.

"Didn't you go up and get firewood, why did you row the boat back?" Since they couldn't see at night, although the bright flashlight on the shore was very bright, they didn't see my situation on the river, and when they saw that I suddenly drove back by boat, Lu Dachuan asked in astonishment,

"What are you supposed to do?" I first said a word to Lu Keqin, who was also looking at me with a puzzled face, and then said to Lu Dachuan, "Get on the boat, I'll take you to see something." ”

"Look at what." Lu Dachuan put down the unformed fish hook in his hand and stood up,

"Hurry up, I'll run in a minute." Afraid that something would happen on the river, I urged in a hurry,

"Be vigilant." Lu Dachuan left a sentence for Liu Changshan, and stepped onto the boat in two steps.

"Don't be too nervous, we're not far from you, and we'll be back in a while." Seeing that Lu Dachuan and I were leaving, Lu Keqin looked nervous, and I opened my mouth to comfort,

"Well, you guys hurry up." Lu Keqin bit her lip, as if we were going to leave her alone, which made me feel very distressed, but I still felt that it was better not to let them know until we figured out what was going on, so as not to make everyone panic too much.

"Which way to go." After Lu Dachuan got on the boat, he turned on a flashlight and shone it on the river.

I hurriedly said something to stop me: "Don't shine, turn off the flashlight and sit down." "Of course, I don't let the consciousness of turning on the lights not because I am afraid that Lu Dachuan will see the situation on the river, but because I don't want us to go offshore, Lu Keqin and they will shine a flashlight on us.

Lu Dachuan looked puzzled, but he still turned off the flashlight as he said, I looked far away, glanced around the river in the dark, determined the position of "we" going downstream, picked up the oars and rowed away from the riverbank,

After drawing a distance, I whispered to Lu Dachuan what I saw,

"Ahh After hearing this, Lu Dachuan's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to let out an exclamation,

"Be quiet." I hurriedly turned my head to look at the shore, and saw that Lu Dachuan's screams made the three people on the shore pick up their guns vigilantly, instead of picking up a flashlight to search for our figure on the surface of the river before relieving my heart.

Lu Dachuan also glanced back, turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Do you think we are really dead?" ”

Although I thought it was impossible in my heart, I didn't dare to give Lu Dachuan a definite answer, and after thinking about it, I said: "If it is our corpse floating in the river, it is not safe, if not, it proves that we must be alive." ”

"How far away." In the dark, Lu Dachuan looked around blankly,

"It's not far away, you can turn it on again when I ask you to turn on the flashlight." The river is wide and the water flow is slow, and during the time when I took the canoe to Lu Dachuan, a few people floating in the water had just crossed the river below the wellhead, but the wellhead was parallel to the place where we camped on the shore, because we had to hide from the three people on the shore, in order to avoid being too close to Lu Dachuan when they turned on the flashlight to check, they could also see it, so I rowed the boat instead of rowing straight to the center of the river, but slid diagonally downstream.

A few minutes later, I stabilized the canoe on the downstream river more than 30 meters away from Lu Keqin and them, and watched a few people float to the side of the boat, so I said to Lu Dachuan: "Turn on the flashlight, on the right side of the boat." ”

Although the five people in the river are scattered, but they are not far apart, after turning on the flashlight, you don't need to shake back and forth to see them all, I have seen it carefully before, and my eyes have never left when I came down all the way, and my heart is extremely frightened, Lu Dachuan knew that he couldn't see anything for a long time, and the situation after turning on the flashlight can be imagined,

To tell the truth, when I was alone in the dark, I knew that several people on the shore were safe and sound, and I didn't have the courage to look at Lu Keqin in the water, and now I saw Lu Dachuan in a cold sweat on his head, trembling like a leaf in the wind, and his heart calmed down, because after a person dies, if it really just makes the living unable to see the figure and hear the sound of speaking, and everything else is still the same, death is not enough to make people afraid, thinking of this, I stretched out my hand and put my hand on Lu Dachuan's shoulder: "We must be alive, Fish him up and see what it is. ”

Lu Dachuan raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his face, turned around and glanced at the river bank in the distance, and nodded after making sure that Lu Keqin and they were still on the shore,

The side of the canoe was only two feet high from the water, and the five people gathered on the right side of the boat like a school of fish, and the two of them stretched out their hands to Lin Xian'er, who was closest to the boat, and when they went down, both hands were empty, and the two of them let out a long breath when they looked at each other.

I rowed the boat back, Lu Dachuan smoked a cigarette and asked: "Zheng Shuang, you said that the water is not our corpse, will it be our soul." ”

"Without the soul, wouldn't we be corpses." I pointed to the cigarette in Lu Dachuan's hand, "You've seen corpses and smokers." ”

Lu Dachuan smiled bitterly: "One moment I fished myself out of the water, and the other time I felt that I was a corpse, and if I continued like this, I would go crazy sooner or later." ”

"Find that guy and we'll get out."

"You want to give up."

"To be honest, I can't find my father, I never thought of giving up, but I really don't feel good about letting Sister Keqin and them be afraid of this dark place every day."

Lu Dachuan stretched out his hand and patted me on the shoulder: "Send them out then, and I'll organize people to come in again." ”

"It's so dangerous here, we're afraid to come out in a hurry, who wants to come in."

"Haha, I want to ask you this question, there are no explorers in the world."

……

Seeing that we came back safely, Lu Keqin and the others put down their guns.

"What are you looking at?" Lu Keqin took the brunt of the problem and ran up to us and asked,

I didn't want to lie to Lu Keqin, but I didn't want to tell the truth, and I was thinking about how to say it to her, when Lu Dachuan opened his mouth and said, "I don't know what left the shadows of a few of us in the water." ”

"Where are you, why don't you take me with you?" Lu Keqin rolled her eyes at me,

"It's not fixed, it's floating in the river, it's already far away, but it's possible to circulate in the river and then float back, and when you see it, you know it's a shadow, don't be afraid."

"Oh."

Seeing that Lu Dachuan's words not only satisfied their curiosity, but also gave them a preconceived idea, so that if they no longer felt as frightened as we did when they saw it, I felt a little more relaxed, dragged the boat to the shore and said, "You hurry up and make the hook, I'll go up and get firewood." ”

After getting out of the well, I swept directly over the city, stood in the air and looked at the situation in the city, made sure that there was no abnormality, everything was still the way I left, and then I fell to the big tree where I was mached, broke off a bunch of branches, tied them with ropes, and when I returned with my back, I remembered what Lu Dachuan told me in the hotel outside, and the stone used to build the city underground may be the stone mined from the Huashan Grottoes, and then walked to the house I broke into and picked up a piece of gravel and brought it to my body.

From the mouth of the well back to the river below, put the firewood down, Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er started to set up firewood and light the fire, in the dark away from the crowd is undoubtedly the most able thing to bring people a sense of security, I came down and rushed to get firewood precisely because I understood this very well,

After helping them light the fire and everyone sat around the fire, I took out the stones in my pocket and handed them to Lu Dachuan: "Do you see this is the same as the stone in the grotto." ”

Lu Dachuan took it in his hand and looked at it and said excitedly: "White granite, it's not bad at all, it's this kind of stone." ”

"White granite and red granite are very easy to identify, how can we not recognize such a large city before." Liu Long legs came to Lu Dachuan,

"If you look at this surface, the characteristics are obvious, but this surface can't be seen at all, it should be that they carved the stone into square bricks and smeared something on the outside, so we didn't notice it before." Lu Dachuan turned over and over and pointed to the small stone and said differently to Liu Changjiao, which provoked Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er to also gather to watch,

Seeing the joy and sense of accomplishment that a discovery brought to them, I somewhat understood why so many people in this world risked their lives to explore, but I understood that I was just an ordinary person, and it was still the most important thing to live in my heart, so when they were excitedly discussing, I didn't join in, I didn't listen carefully, but looked at the river, and I didn't expect a few more people to appear in my sight in the distance......
