Chapter 499: Mirage
On the morning of the third day, as soon as I opened the curtains, I saw that there were dark clouds outside, and the rain was pouring down, and the sky and the earth were completely covered in a gray patch.
With such ghost weather, Liao Xian'er definitely won't go out, right?
I secretly thought about walking to the door, and just got into the cat's eye, but I saw that Liao Xian'er had already pushed the door out and went downstairs with a few subordinates.
I quickly got dressed, grabbed my raincoat, and ran out.
When I came downstairs, I happened to see Liao Xian'er and his party wearing raincoats, and they had already walked through the lobby and walked outside.
I hurriedly followed.
Standing at the door of the hotel, I noticed that Liao Xian'er and his party walked towards the bank of the Jinjiang River and came to a pier.
There are many pleasure boats parked on the pier, and many tourists rent boats to paddle on the river when the weather is beautiful.
It's just that in today's weather, except for Liao Xian'er and his party, there is no one to see.
I stood in the distance and saw Liao Xian'er and his party get on a cruise boat and row towards the center of the river.
On such a rainy day, what did she run to the river to do? I felt more and more that something was wrong, so I hurried to the dock and knocked on the sentry box.
An old man poked his head out of the window and shouted, "Young man, why are you knocking so loudly, my ears are almost deafened, old man." ”
I waved my hand apologetically, and then asked, "Uncle, let me ask, what did those people do on the river just now?" ”
"You said that those people, what did they say to go to the river to enjoy the rain scene, it's really crazy, young people now, I don't know what they think in their heads?"
The old man looked at the rushing rain outside and shook his head helplessly.
"Uncle, I also want to rent a boat, can you help me catch up with them?"
With my rowing skills, I will definitely not be able to catch up with Liao Xian'er, so I can only ask the old man for help.
"Boy, you're crazy, I'm not crazy, old man!"
The old man waved his hand again and again: "I still want to live a few more years." ”
"Uncle, I'll give you money!"
I said quickly.
"No matter how much money you give, the old man can't promise you, as soon as you're old, you can spare me!"
After a while, the old man finally walked out of the sentry box, took the hat, and obediently went to unreince the reins of a pleasure boat.
He did this, of course, not because I gave him a number that he couldn't refuse.
Uncle is an old boatman, and his paddling skills are first-class, and after a while, I can already see Liao Xian'er and their pleasure boat.
At this moment, on the pleasure boat, several bodyguards were struggling to row the oars, and Liao Xian'er was standing at the bow of the boat, staring at the water with a solemn expression.
Her left hand held the day's gossip plate, turning her body from time to time to change direction.
Suddenly, Liao Xian'er's eyes lit up, pointing in one direction, not knowing what to say to a few bodyguards.
Immediately, she jumped into the river and disappeared.
Several bodyguards did not hesitate and followed closely behind, jumping down one after another.
A moment later, the boat was empty, drifting aimlessly on the river.
"Uncle, quick, row over!"
I realized that Liao Xian'er must have made some discovery, and hurriedly urged the uncle.
But when the uncle saw a few people diving, he was already dumbfounded.
"What the hell are these young people doing, it's ***!"
"Young man, I know you want to save people kindly, but in this kind of ghost weather, even I don't dare to go into the water easily, so forget it!"
"Let's go back and call the police!"
As he spoke, the old man turned the bow of the boat and rowed back.
"No way!"
I hurriedly shouted, "It's too late, uncle, just listen to me!" ”
At my insistence, the uncle could only sigh helplessly and row towards Jiang Xin.
Five minutes later, the cruise ship had already arrived at the place where Liao Xian'er jumped just now.
I stood on the bow of the boat, looking underwater with my eyes wide open.
The river was misty and dark, rippling in the heavy rain, and nothing could be seen at all.
Impossible, I recalled Liao Xian'er's behavior of holding a tray and turning around the boat just now, and I was sure that she must have found a trace of no characters, but why couldn't I see anything?
was in doubt, and suddenly, a picture faintly appeared in the depths of the river.
Rows of farmhouses stand at the bottom of the water, lined up in an orderly manner, with rolling green hills and cultivated fields in the distance, and pedestrians can even be seen walking back and forth on the extinction road. Chinese Net
Mirage?
I quickly rubbed my eyes, but when I opened my eyes again, the houses, fields, and pedestrians disappeared.
But I'm sure I wasn't dazzled just now, and yes, I did see that scene.
It seems that if I want to find the characters, I can only go deep into the water and explore them.
Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate and patted my uncle on the shoulder.
"Uncle, go back, I'm leaving."
After that, I took out my phone and briefly told Lonnie about the situation here, and asked them all to come to Xiushui Town to meet, and then popped and jumped into the water.
I only heard an exclamation from the uncle, and the whole person sank down.
The icy water instantly submerged me, and I held my breath, my head downward, and my limbs slid hard, diving deeper into the water.
As I continued to dive, the water pressure increased and increased, and after a while, I felt a suffocating sensation in my lungs, which I could hardly bear.
According to estimates, I guessed that I had dive thirty or forty meters, but I still couldn't see the bottom of the water, and the mirage just now never appeared again.
I continued to dive for more than ten meters, and still didn't find anything, just when I couldn't bear it anymore and was about to float, suddenly, I saw a black hole-like vortex opposite me.
The whirlpool was spinning rapidly in the deep water, getting bigger and bigger, and I wanted to escape, but in an instant, I felt an inexplicable gravitational pull, which made me uncontrollably sucked into it.
After a whirlwind, I only felt my abdomen turn upside down, and my whole body fainted.
I don't know how long it took, but I woke up to find that I didn't know when I had washed up on the shore.
I struggled to get up, but found that the shore was deserted, but not far away, I could faintly see a row of farmhouses.
Only then did I realize that I hadn't returned to Silk Town, but had entered the mirage I had seen earlier!
Glancing around, I didn't see any trace of Liao Xian'er and his party, but not far away, I saw a few peasant women washing clothes on the shore.
The women were dressed simply, and several of them squatted side by side, talking and laughing, looking like ordinary peasant women.
It's just that when I walked in, I found that their faces were very pale, and the expressions on their faces were also a little weird.
The scene in the mirage naturally cannot be measured by common sense, and I let out a long breath to calm myself.
