Chapter 115: A figure in the sky

With the concerted efforts of several people, they quickly cut down enough bamboo and set up a bamboo raft. The raft is more than eight meters long and is stacked on top of each other in three layers, making it not much smaller than the original boat.

After a little preparation, they pushed the raft into the water and resumed sailing.

All the people of the Great Xia Imperial Court have heard that among the nine songs of the divine dragon in Weishui, "seven songs are the easiest, and eight songs are the most difficult". But when they were in the seventh song of the Divine Dragon, they met the red-eyed frog of Weishui, which was extremely difficult. So for the previous eighth song, they are not so worried - could it be more powerful than the red-eyed frog?

Two days later, they came to the eighth song of the dragon.

The reason why the eighth song of Shenlong is difficult to pass is not because of the large difference in water level, but because the waters of Weishui have reached here, and the flow direction has become more and more tortuous, like breaking through a maze, and it is difficult for people who are not good enough to control boats to pass through here smoothly. Moreover, in this section of water, there are many strange rocky reefs under the riverbed, which provoke a series of undercurrent rapids, which is very terrifying.

Once the ship is swept into the undercurrent torrent, it is very likely to be shattered! In particular, the bamboo raft on which Ren Xiaoyao and others were riding was powerless in the large-scale undercurrent.

However, it is precisely because of the many undercurrents here, so there are no aquatic creatures living here, and something like the red-eyed frog encountered in the seventh song will not happen here.

"Be careful, you're about to enter an area with a dense undercurrent. ”

The old boatman's words of reminder came, which immediately alerted the five of them a lot.

Now, not only Ren Xiaoyao, but even an arrogant maniac like Feng Shenyu did not dare to turn a deaf ear to the old boatman's words. After all, the old boatman's performance several times in a row has greatly exceeded their expectations.

The most common undercurrent is a whirlpool of water - the surrounding water is in a circle, spiraling rapidly, while the water surface in the middle is slightly concave. Water whirlpools are also often the most destructive undercurrents. Once the water vortex is powerful to a certain extent, it will be as powerful as a tornado, enough to swallow everything and tear it to pieces!

At that point, the water whirlpool has a new name - a waterspout!

Think about it, what flows in a tornado is air, and with the light and fluttering power of air, it can still have a huge destructive power, if the wind in the tornado is replaced with water, what will be its power? I am afraid that it will be ten times that of a tornado of the same level!

However, it is somewhat reassuring that the terrifying phenomenon of waterspouts has not been encountered for decades, and unless it is particularly unlucky, it is generally not encountered.

Entering the area where there are many undercurrents, everyone soon ushered in the first undercurrent. The raft began to tremble slightly, and the direction of the rafting also changed slightly, constantly shifting to the left and right, and it was not controlled by human beings at all. This feeling is like a strange beast dragging a bamboo raft under the surface of the water, when in fact, it is only the water that "drags" the bamboo raft.

"Let's get closer to the shore, the water is shallow, and the undercurrent should be smaller. Ren Yaodao.

Everyone agreed, and immediately steered the bamboo raft to approach the shore. Even the old boatman, who was sitting at the back of the raft, nodded slightly.

When I came to a place close to the shore, the tremor of the bamboo raft was indeed much lighter. And there is another advantage of sailing close to the shore, that is, if the raft is destroyed, everyone can quickly swim to shore.

The bamboo raft continued to move down the river, deeper and deeper into the heart of the eighth song of the dragon. The undercurrent gradually became stronger again, the raft trembled violently, and some of the loosely tied places showed signs of being shaken apart. Everyone hurriedly moved their hands to tie the rope that they wanted to spread out, and kept an eye on the changes in the water surface.

But the general undercurrent is not too big a clue from the water surface. The whole eighth song is like a silent beast, full of danger and difficult to tell—maybe at some point, you will enter the mouth of this beast without knowing it!

Faintly, Ren Xiaoyao noticed that there was something strange on the surface of the water: with the bamboo raft as the center, the width spread out for about ten meters, and the direction of the water seemed to be a little different from other places.

In this area, the current seems to be rotating slightly, causing the direction of the raft to move as if it is constantly changing, as if it is constantly circling. Ren Xiaoyao looked at the shore and found a big tree on the shore as a reference, and sure enough, he found this - the bamboo raft was slowly turning!

"Oh no, we seem to be in the middle of a huge water vortex and are no longer moving forward. ”

With Ren Xiaoyao's words, the other four also raised their heads, and after careful observation, they found the same problem.

"What then, paddle out!" said Fire Dance.

Everyone worked together and paddled forward with all their might, trying to get out of the whirlpool. They all made great efforts, and their whole bodies were full of light, and they did not hesitate to spend star power.

The raft was rowed as fast as it could, gradually leaving the center of the water whirlpool. However, Ren Xiaoyao and the others found that the direction of the bamboo raft was still not directly ahead, but in the center of the water whirlpool, winding outward in a circle.

But it doesn't matter if you go around, as long as you can gradually get out of this water vortex. So they continued to paddle hard.

But at this moment, they suddenly felt that the speed of the bamboo raft was getting faster and faster. Even in their ears, there was the sound of whirring wind! Everyone couldn't help but raise their heads and look around.

The sky is spinning, and the water is turbulent!

At the same time, the bamboo raft, which had gradually moved away from the center of the whirlpool, seemed to be being pulled by a strong force and drifted towards the center of the whirlpool.

"Oh no, this water vortex is getting stronger rapidly, it's going to suck us in!"

"The suction is too great, the speed at which we slide outward is not as fast as the speed of sucking in!"

"Hurry up, once you are swept into the center of the whirlpool, it will be even harder to get out!"

Several people shouted anxiously to each other, and at the same time rowed out harder.

Ren Xiaoyao, Huo Wu, Ah Sheng, and Feng Shenyu were all covered in white brilliance, and their hands were constantly waving, either using long sticks to prop up the boat, or paddling with wood pulp, trying to make the bamboo raft go out. And Sanjie, the only master of the Star Realm, waved his hands again and again, shooting out clusters of red star power light, hitting the water surface, and using the anti-shock force to push the raft! Every time he slapped the water surface, he could make the bamboo raft move forward a long distance.

But Rao is like this, the five of them are still unable to resist the suction of the water whirlpool, and the bamboo raft keeps getting closer to the center of the water whirlpool!

And what makes them even more anxious is that the rotation speed of the water whirlpool is becoming more and more terrifying, and it has a tendency to develop into a waterspout!

Seeing that, the bamboo raft is getting closer and closer to the center of the water whirlpool, and it is already on the verge of being washed away. At this moment, once the bamboo raft is washed away, all five people will fall into the water, and it will be more difficult to break free from the suction and tearing of the water whirlpool.

The five of them didn't have the slightest reservation at the moment, and tried their best to urge the star power in their bodies to get out of the water whirlpool.

I saw that the water whirlpool had developed to a diameter of hundreds of meters, almost blocking half of the surface of the Weishui River. In the periphery of the water whirlpool, the water flow is rapidly affected, and it is quickly drawn into the water whirlpool, helping to expand the size of the water whirlpool. And in the center of the water whirlpool, the speed of the water has already reached an extremely terrifying speed - in the middle of it, you can only feel the world spinning, and you can't see the surrounding scenery clearly!

At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao and the others were in a position extremely close to the center of the water whirlpool, and they were approaching the center step by step!

They can't get out of it, and the water vortex is expanding further. The center of the whirlpool, hollowing down into the water, was ten meters deep enough to reach the riverbed. And the sediment, stones and other things at the bottom of the river are also involved in the whirlpool, and with some wood and sundries brought by the water flow from elsewhere, the water whirlpool at this moment has become a terrifying meat grinder!

This is already a waterspout, a waterspout that claims to be able to destroy everything!

At some point, the sky began to become cloudy, and the sky was as gray as night. From time to time, huge lightning streaked across the sky, like a terrifying heavenly punishment, resounding through the sky.

The huge whirlpool, like a terrifying dragon swallowing the river, and as if the space had collapsed, leaving a terrifying giant hole. Once something is sucked into the giant hole, it will be reduced to pieces in an instant!

And the raft of Ren Xiaoyao and the others is on the edge of the giant cave at this moment......

"Bang, bang" a few times, and the rope that tied the bamboo raft was broken. The bamboo raft, which was not sturdy, was finally washed away, and everyone fell into the water without exception.

"Everyone huddles!"

Ren Xiaoyao shouted, and at the same time, his hands were left and right, and he grabbed Huo Wu and Ah Sheng. On the other side, Feng Shenyu and Sanjie also reacted quickly, and the two grabbed Ah Sheng at the same time and struggled to surround them. The five of them are gathered together, so that each other can have a point to rely on, and they will not be completely caught in that terrifying torrent.

This time, the old boatman disappeared again, and he disappeared at some point. But the crowd didn't have time to do anything about it - the moment it was already in a desperate situation, and maybe the next moment, the crowd would be torn to pieces by the current!

The power of the waterspout is terrifying, like a giant beast of the wilderness, with five people spinning rapidly, about to enter the center of the terrifying whirlpool.

The strong tearing force came, and Ren Xiaoyao only felt that there were countless pairs of big hands pulling at his arms, legs, head, and every piece of skin on his body, and he was going to break himself into pieces!

"Boom ......"

There was a roar in Ren Xiaoyao's mind, and he lost consciousness in an instant.

In his consciousness, in this case, he should be dead......

Like Ren Xiaoyao, several other people were also hit by the violent torrent, and passed out almost instantly. Even Sanjay, the strongest great master, only lasted less than a second before he fell unconscious.

The five of them felt the same way, thinking they were dead.

But at this moment, above the waterspout, a figure appeared in the sky!

This figure, pacing in the air, walks in the air as if it were walking on the ground. And in terms of attire, it couldn't be simpler - wearing a hat and sackcloth, he looks like an ordinary old man!
