Chapter 239: Singing
The sound of the waves.
Consciousness gradually woke up from the groggy, Ye Xi wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were like a thousand pounds, even if he tried his best, he could only open a thin slit, and he couldn't focus, like a thin layer of mist.
There was a dazzling fiery red sunset shining into his eyes, and the dazzling light made Ye Xi's eyes burst into tears, and he immediately closed his eyes again.
He found himself lying on a hard, craggy reef, soaking in the cold water below his calves, swaying with the layers of waves.
Ye Xi was lucky again, and wanted to open his eyes and get up, but his body couldn't move at all like a ghost pressing the bed, and he couldn't do it after trying several times. A faint panic arose from the bottom of his heart, he was a little at a loss, and his breathing did not feel short.
"Calm down, Ye Xi, at least you've come out of the water!"
Ye Xi noticed that he had lost his cool a little, and immediately did several psychological construction to calm down his mind. Know that panic is useless when people are in an unfavorable situation.
He began to search his memories to figure out why he was here.
He remembered that he was swept all the way by the roaring angry river, and the fierce current made him unable to swim ashore at all, so he could only hold his breath and be carried by the waves, and he didn't know how long he washed in the water, and then his lungs were even like fire due to lack of oxygen, and he gradually lost consciousness.
At this time, there was a sudden ethereal singing voice in my ears.
Ye Xi breathed.
The song is ethereal and ethereal, with no lyrics and just a casual chant, but it is pleasant and indescribable with any words, so that the listener does not know what day it is.
Ye Xi didn't wake up until his lungs were as uncomfortable as fire, and he found that he had even forgotten to breathe.
As soon as the singing stopped, a fresh breeze suddenly blew in his ears, and he felt something lying on his head! A damp and cold breath like cold snow lingered on the side of his ears, looming, like a mist of mist, drilling straight into the skin of his side.
Ye Xi's heart trembled, and he tried his best to open his eyes, but his eyelids were really too heavy, no matter how hard he tried, he could only open a slit at most.
- Boom!
The sound of something crashing on the water, the waves splashing everywhere, bursting out of the water droplets illuminated by the setting sun,
Ye Xi's breathing stopped again unconsciously...... Because he saw a brilliant silver fishtail flick up and down from the water!
The silver scales reflected a thrilling brilliance in the light of the setting sun, and the beauty was breathtaking. No, not the fishtail, it is much longer and has much more beautiful curves.
Lying beside him...... What kind of creature is it? Is it a silver-scaled python? No, no, it can sing, is it a kraken?!
He suspected that the long silver tail that appeared just now was fake, and it was his own imagination, and he wanted to open his eyes completely to see it clearly.
But what made Ye Xi desperate was that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open his eyelids completely, and could only observe the surroundings through a gap.
At this moment, a hand appeared very close in front of him—a hand that seemed to be condensed from weak snow, and it was so beautiful that it was thrilling.
Ye Xi's heart trembled, thinking that he had seen it wrong, and in the next second, a cold fingertip slipped onto his cheek.
The icy touch startled him, but pain followed, as the skin touched by the fingertips seemed to be cut by the sharp tip of a knife, and warm blood trickled down from the wound.
The fingertips left several deep blood marks on his face, and after a while, the cold fingers touched his eyes.
Ye Xi was horrified, it wasn't trying to gouge out his eyes, right?! Desperately alarming in his heart, Ye Xi struggled, but he found in despair that no matter how he struggled, it was useless, and he only moved his fingers with all his strength.
"-Whew!"
At that moment, there was a rapid dinosaur cry.
The finger paused and retracted.
Ye Xi found that in the water not far away, there was a long-necked dinosaur half-floating, and because his back was facing the sunset, he could only see a huge black silhouette.
Such a big aquatic dinosaur, he hadn't even paid attention to it just now, and he had put all his attention on the unknown creature next to him......
The ethereal singing voice sounded again, this time even louder, and Ye Xi only lasted two seconds before he completely lost consciousness.
............
I don't know how long it took, Ye Xi woke up from the chaos again.
This time he managed to take control of his body, opened his eyes and staggered up from the ground.
He found himself lying on the sand by the shore, soaking wet, his sackcloth wrinkled together and covered with a lot of grit.
Ye Xi turned his head blankly and looked around.
In front of him was the endless sea, and at the end of the sandy beach at his feet was a jungle with black holes, and many yellow-skinned dinosaurs paced along the dimly lit beach.
The sound of the tide was bursting, and the salty smell of the sea breeze blew coolly on the face, and at this moment the night was falling, and the sunset was about to sink completely at sea level, and the sea water became as black and heavy as ink.
He looked at the sea in a daze, raised his hand and touched his face, it was flat, there was no sign of being cut at all, and there was no reef near it.
Was everything just now a dream of my own? I imagined it when I was in a coma?
Ye Xi shook his head vigorously.
Now is not the time to dwell on this, the first thing to consider is where you were taken by the Nu River. He only knew that he was by the sea now, and he didn't know anything else, and the scenery here felt strange to him.
And what made him feel at a loss was that even the climate was wrong. Now it is obviously the hottest time of the dry season, but he clearly feels a chill that belongs to autumn, as if it is about to enter winter.
The large package he had been carrying was washed away in the fierce current, and his dried meat, Panax notoginseng powder, the blessing dominoes that Tu Shanwu had worked hard to make, and the elm money for detoxification were all placed in the big package, and now they were all gone.
The bone knife, the bone flute, and the bow and arrow on his back were also missing, and he now had only a black dagger tied to his waist.
There was also a diagonal animal skin bag left on the body, which was used to put small things.
Ye Xi opened the mouth of the bag and looked at it, the flint stone placed inside, the three different grasses given by Gongtao, the tree spirit stone and the water bladder were all there, and they were not lost. This made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The last bit of light of the sunset was about to be swallowed up, and there were bursts of beast roars in the dark jungle, and the light of the red moon gradually bloomed, and there were fist-sized sea cockroaches coming out of nowhere, crawling around on the beach, gradually more and more, densely spread all over the ground.
Ye Xi exhaled deeply and decided to find a place to spend the night first.
The strength of his body gradually recovered, Ye Xi pulled out his dagger and walked towards the jungle vigilantly.
Halfway through, he couldn't help but look back at the sea. The sea was calm and deep without the slightest abnormality, and the brilliant silver scales and ethereal singing voice seemed to be really just a dream for him.
