Chapter 152: Arrival

Shao Xuan knew that the river was very big, but he didn't know that it would be so big.

Sailing, paddle by hand, and chirping alternate between the canoes, and the canoe is always moving, except for short breaks.

According to the sun and the double moon at night, Shao Xuan has been judging the direction, trying to keep the canoe in a straight line, although he encountered a lot of trouble on the way, and encountered a crazy fish collective fight on the way, and had to bypass the long road, but it is not so much that he has not seen the head until now.

"After today, it will be fifteen days. Shao Xuan looked at the endless water in front of him, and said to the chatter resting next to him.

In addition to the excitement and novelty at the beginning, the next thing that frightened it was countless things that happened one after another, so scared that its bird feathers have lost a lot recently.

Shao Xuan is also tired, he hasn't had a good rest for fifteen consecutive days, although his recovery strength is very strong, but he can't bear the long-term exhaustion, and what Shao Xuan is most worried about now is whether he will have no time to return if he goes forward. After all, according to the original plan, at most fifteen days, if you can't find the edge, you will go back. However, now I always feel that I should move forward.

"Chirp, you say, is there a continent ahead?" Shao Xuan kicked the bird next to him, this river was beyond his imagination, if he continued to go down to enter the sea, he believed it.

The chirp next to him, who was hanging his head and combing his feathers, looked up in response, and then looked ahead. It could feel the breath of the continent ahead, but it didn't know how far it was.

Shao Xuan actually felt that way, and always felt that if he went further, he would also reach the other side of the river. But that would be too risky. Even if you reach the other side at that time, what if the river has dropped sharply and you can't see the top?

How to choose?

Go on, or go back?

Shao Xuan closed his eyes and felt the totem in his mind.

The totemic flame in the mind rolls up, and the direction in which the flame floats. It's forward-facing, and it's surging violently.

Opening his eyes, Shao Xuan adjusted the sails, "Keep going." ”

"Whew-" chirp replied weakly. It began to miss the life of the tribe, but thinking about the new land that Shao Xuan had said, it was invigorated again.

In this way, after another eight days, Shao Xuan felt the totem flame in his mind surging more and more violently. But at the same time, the river in the river is flowing faster. Shao Xuan has seen such a situation, when such a situation occurs, the river level will drop sharply, and when he is in the tribe, he may still see a few stones exposed on the river bank today, but the next day, he will see a muddy steep slope.

Chirp flew in the sky. Pulling the boat.

While Shao Xuan was thinking, the chirp in the air shouted.

Shao Xuan looked at the sky sharply. Chirp like that. It means that there is something ahead, most likely, the riverbank.

Chirp landed, Shao Xuan jumped on the back of the eagle, and then asked Chirp to take a look into the air.

It's not easy to see when you're on a canoe, but it's in the air. But you can see that there is a very thin black line on the border in the distance, and you will not notice it if you are not careful.

Chirp still clutches on his paws, and it is impossible to throw the canoe and fly high into the air alone, in that case. The canoe will be washed away by the fast-flowing river.

Even if he couldn't fly to a higher altitude to observe, Shao Xuan was excited enough.

After drifting on the river for more than 20 days, his heart was terrified, if he couldn't see the edge anymore, Shao Xuan really had no confidence, even if the totem flame was surging violently, but he couldn't reach the shore before the river dropped sharply, he was still dead.

Now that I see the line of the border, the pressure in my heart has suddenly decreased dramatically, and I feel that the fatigue brought by the past 20 days has dissipated a lot and is much easier.

"Alright, chirp, it's almost there!

Shao Xuan returned to the boat and continued to pull.

The river is flowing faster and faster, and there are fewer piranhas in the water, I don't know if it's because of the change in the river, or because of something else. At least in the past two days, Shao Xuan did not encounter other threats from the fish in the river, but the wind, wind direction, and the speed of the river made the boat not move fast.

The "black line" of the border is becoming more and more obvious, looking at the sky, Shao Xuan hopes that it is best to arrive before sunset, there are too many unknown variables at night.

As he gradually approached the riverbank, Shao Xuan realized that the riverbank looked like a mountain above the river, because the river had fallen too much.

It's okay, it's okay, although it feels like sailing under the abyss now, but it's the edge after all.

In a new place, Shao Xuan suddenly felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

On the bank of the river, similar to that of the tribe, near the shore, there was a steep slope.

However, not far away, there is still flowing water. It was supposed to be a tributary, and the water that flowed out of it flowed into the great river, but now that the level of the great river has dropped, the water over there has flowed down the steep slope.

The closer you get to the shore, the stronger the wind. The wind smelled of mud and rot.

Shao Xuan looked at the height of the shore and the muddy and steep slope on the shore, and thought that the canoe could not be docked.

After more than 20 days of sailing, although a very strong and corrosion-resistant tree was used, it was collided and bitten by a big fish during the voyage, leaving many criss-crossing traces, and a hole was broken at the bottom, and Shao Xuan blocked it with something. This canoe has fulfilled its mission.

Shao Xuan put the rest of the things that needed to be carried on the canoe on his back, and after the chirp landed, he jumped on the back of the chirp, and flew to the riverbank with one person and one eagle.

The broken canoe, which had not been pulled by the eagle any longer, drifted downstream with the rapidly flowing river, and soon only a small shadow remained, and then disappeared from Shao Xuan's field of vision.

The wind was stronger, and there was no definite direction, and several times I almost lifted the chirp into the mud on the side.

"Come on, buddy, work harder!" Shao Xuan clung to the eagle's body and said loudly.

Chirp flapped its wings vigorously and flew upwards.

was flying, Shao Xuan suddenly said, "Wait, go over there and have a look!"

Although he didn't understand why Shao Xuan wanted to go over there, Chirp still turned around and flew towards the place Shao Xuan was pointing to.

Soon, Shao Xuan saw a figure trapped in the mud and entangled in algae, being dragged down.

"Save ...... Death!" the man was still shouting, his voice was a little hoarse, apparently he had been shouting for a while, but no one had come, and he didn't seem to have much strength left, and he had to gasp a few times when he screamed.

The man was not very old when he heard the voice, he was already covered in mud, and his whole body had been torn off nearly two-thirds of the way, and there were still aquatic plants sticking out of the mud and wrapping around him.

Chirp didn't get close to that side, so Shao Xuan asked Chirp to grab the straw rope, and he tied the other end of the straw rope and jumped down.

"Reach out!" Shao Xuan said.

Seeing Shao Xuan jumping off the back of the eagle, the other party was stunned, but quickly pulled his arms out of the mud.

Shao Xuan grabbed his arms and pulled them up.

The aquatic weeds were wrapped too tightly, and if they were forced to pull up like this, they would probably break the man's arm.

Shao Xuan took out a free hand, let the chirp go a little further, took out a stone knife, and quickly cut it towards the aquatic plants sticking out of the mud.

When Shao Xuan pulled the person up, the person who was trapped in the mud also concentrated the last strength he had left, trying to break free from the grass that was still tied to his legs.

Shao Xuan found that although this person's face was full of mud and he couldn't see clearly, in those eyes, the iris was yellowish-brown, and the pupils were vertical, like knife blades, which made people feel fierce and cold and ruthless.

I don't know which tribe this is, Shao Xuan thought to himself.

Before leaving, Shao Xuan went to Wu to receive training, and read almost all the scrolls in Wu's place, and now the person in front of him, Shao Xuan has learned too little information, and he can't match the person in front of him with the record on the ancient scroll for the time being.

When the person was finally pulled out of the mud little by little, the chirp began to fly up quickly.

When I finally flew up, my feet stepped on the ground again, and I suddenly felt a sense of fullness in my heart, this was the real ground, not the fluttering river.

The feeling of being rooted and implemented is really more secure.

Chirp also stood on the grassy ground, and stepped on it alternately.

As for the person who was rescued by Shao Xuan, it seemed that he was just an underage child, but he was very vigilant about Shao Xuan, even if Shao Xuan saved his life just now.

The other party didn't say anything, Shao Xuan didn't ask, and after his heart was settled, he began to pay attention to his surroundings.

There are not many traces of human activity around, but some can be seen. There are also mountains in the distance, and this one, most of them are muddy areas, many potholes and stagnant water, and the naturally sunken ground forms pools of different sizes, in addition, Shao Xuan also saw traces of claws and teeth gnawing on the stones by some pools. It wasn't made by man......

In the water?

However, Shao Xuan didn't feel the danger from these pools, and neither did the chatter. Either the creatures in the water are too well hidden, or there are no dangerous animals in the water at the moment.

The person who was rescued by Shao Xuan lay quietly on the ground next to him, panting, although he didn't speak, his eyes kept glancing at Shao Xuan and the chirp next to him.

Finally, the kid couldn't help it.

"Who are you, and why are you in our tribe?" the other asked.

"Which tribe are you from?" Shao Xuan asked, seeing that the other party was still very wary, he said, "My eagle and I came by boat from a long distance, but the river level fell too fast, so we hurried ashore." The ship had just been washed away, and I don't know how far it had gone. ”

"How long have you been in the river?" The other party didn't believe Shao Xuan's words, and looked at Shao Xuan suspiciously. It seems that Shao Xuan is very puzzled that he doesn't know his tribe.

"It's been more than twenty days. Shao Xuan said.

The other party's eyes widened, and the pupils in those yellow-brown eyes were still narrow. (To be continued......)
