CHAPTER XV
The forest identified the fork in the road in front of him, and felt the difference between the two sides, the river flowing from the hole on the left was warmer than the temperature on the right, and it might be closer to the surface.
Look for the direction and move on,
It has been some distance into the river, and the water that has submerged the calves seems to be beginning to rise, and I don't know how long the distance is ahead.
There is no spectrum in the heart, the faint blue light in the hand does not provide a good line of sight, it is almost impossible to see things on both sides, and it is impossible to predict the situation ahead, to put it bluntly, whether there is a way out in front of it is the conjecture that Quercus deduced through simple clues, at this time, it is also a dead horse as a live horse doctor, even if it is bad, it is better than staying in the previous boundary and waiting for death,
I don't know if it's an illusion, the temperature from the river under my feet seems to be getting higher and higher, from the initial cold and biting, has slowly become warmer, although it is still cold, but it is no longer an unacceptable temperature,
The temperature of the river water has risen, which also confirms the previous speculation of the oak forest, at this time the position is slowly approaching the surface, and the confidence cannot help but increase for a while.
He continued to walk for a distance, and seemed to have come to the end of this cave, and the dim light caused him to see it unreally, and he was about to make a move forward, when suddenly his feet loosened, and the whole person sank into the water.
Before the water level rose, it was just below the knee, and there was nothing to do all the way to make the oak forest lose its vigilance, and at this moment I didn't expect the riverbed foundation under my feet to change, and I stepped on the air and plunged directly into the water.
Suddenly, Quercus did not have the slightest preparation, and he grew up in the desert, and the water was not good, so he panicked for a while, choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and struggled a few times before he barely put his head out of the water, climbed to the bottom of the riverbed before, returned to the place just now, and coughed for a while before relieving the tingling sensation in his lungs.
The foundation of this section of the riverbed was cut off at the waist, like a cliff in the water.
Before falling into the water, Quercus threw away the simple light-emitting device in his hand when he struggled, this thing itself was wrapped in clothes, and it was not particularly reinforced, and it was completely scattered and sunk under the water at this time.
Fortunately, this mineral that emits blue light does not know what the principle is to produce light, and at this time, it does not lose its luminous function because it is immersed in water, but it reflects the underwater vividly.
From the perspective of the oak forest, the depth of the water in front of you is about two or three meters, and the refraction of the blue light emitted by the bottom of the water has led to cognitive errors, and in fact it may be about four meters deep.
Diving into the bottom of the river to retrieve a few pieces of luminous material, and then exploring the environment, the karst cave in front of me is indeed at the end, the terrain of the entire riverbed began to go straight down, and the way to continue was completely submerged underwater, and a V-shaped hole was formed under the water in front of it, and if you want to go further, you can only dive underwater into the hole,
Quercus tried the time he spent holding his breath in the water, roughly estimated it, and was ready to try to explore the hole in front of him after knowing it, as long as he left half the time to return before he ran out of oxygen, there would be no danger.
When they all arrived here, Quercus no longer hesitated, held his breath and entered the water, opened his eyes in the water and its difficulties, Quercus Lin stubbornly withstood the pain from his eyes with his will, but his vision was like being covered with a layer of film and could not see really, and there was only a faint light, and Quercus Lin also came to the entrance of the cave very reluctantly,
I estimated my time in my heart, it was enough, and I didn't have time to hesitate for Quercus Lin, so I plunged into the underwater cave.
After entering the cave, the whole terrain turned, began to rise sharply, the forest was happy, according to the principle of air pressure balance, this type of ground type of oak forest does not need to go back to the previous place can be supplemented with oxygen, but I don't know how much the terrain rises, can leave enough air, if you find that the entire water hole is submerged under the water surface, then it is basically impossible to supplement oxygen in the place before returning to the water with the water nature of the forest,
At this time, every second is precious and abnormal, and Quercus Lin made a decision in his heart,
Bet!
Swim violently along the upward river terrain towards the inside of the mountain,
Quercus seemed to have bet right, just when he almost exhausted the oxygen in his body, he jumped out of the water, the space here is only about thirty or forty centimeters from the top, Quercus Lin rushed out too violently and almost hit his head, but although this space is not much, it is enough for Quercus to ventilate,
Taking advantage of the luck of the high, I identified the direction and continued to move forward.
The water nature of the oak forest itself is not good, swimming forward will consume a lot of physical strength, plus there is no foothold around, four or five hundred meters forward almost exhausted physical strength, and at the same time soaked in the water for a long time, at this time I feel that my muscles are sore, and I don't know how long I can last.
After swimming through a completely submerged road, the oak forest floated to the surface to breathe, while resting on the stalactites protruding from the top of the cave, feeling that his legs were already unconscious.
Suddenly, the forest seemed to find that the waterway in front of him seemed to become brighter, and staying in the dark for a long time made the forest extremely sensitive to the changes in light at this time, and continued to hold his breath, enduring the pain in his body and swimming forward,
The bright light in front of him became more and more obvious, and there were even a few desert grass carps that he had seen before swimming in his hand.
Got it!
Quercus couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, it had been about two days since the sandworm queen swallowed herself, during which he had gone through several lives and deaths, desperate hopes, and at this time, he was about to die in a desperate situation, and the pain in the muscles on his body was suddenly reduced a lot.
The oak forest once again came out of the water to breathe, this time it was the last time the tree forest breathed, and then it was about to swim in this underwater cave in one breath.
This cave should be connected to a desert oasis, at this time it is the dry season, the water level must not be high, but even so it will not be lower than twenty or thirty meters, if you want to rush out of the forest, you also need enough physical strength, fortunately, there is no pollution in the desert, this oasis is clean and transparent, the visibility is excellent, the sunlight can penetrate directly under the water, I want to directly throw away the blue luminous fragments used for lighting in my hand, but think about it carefully, this is also an extraordinary thing, close to the body, maybe it can be of any use in the future,
Take a few deep breaths, plunge into the water, don't care too much, quickly swim to the exit of the underwater cave, the entrance of the cave is blocked by aquatic plants, I wanted to use my hands and feet to open the aquatic plants, who knew that in a panic I was entangled in my right leg by aquatic plants, Quercus knew in his heart that he couldn't panic at this time, calmed down and untied the aquatic plants wrapped around his legs, and suddenly entered the oasis water system,
Identifying the location, he quickly floated to the surface of the water, and looked up out of the water.
It was noon, there was not a single cloud in the blue sky, and the birds that roost here were resting in the shade of the trees beside the oasis, and the breeze was blowing, and the branches of the trees trembled with the wind, and occasionally a crisp birdsong was heard.
The tree forest gulped in the fresh air, as if it had been reborn,
Finally, escaped. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
