After agreeing, Shen Luo handed over the horses to Yu Daring and his wife to take care of, and he propped up the boat and swung towards the river.

Before leaving, Yu Daring did not forget to tell him in detail, for fear that he would have an accident, Shen Luo naturally did not dare to slack off on this, and wrote down the situation of each river section in detail, as well as the matters that need attention.

The woman added clean drinking water to the ship, and brought out some pieces of pancake and some jerky from the house, wrapped them in sackcloth, and insisted that Shen Luo take them with the boat to eat.

Shen Luo was very enthusiastic, so he also smiled and accepted the package.

Shen Luo stood at the bow of the boat, holding a penny in his hand, but he did not hold the boat, but probed the reef in the water on both sides of the boat.

Soon, the boat bypassed the man-high reeds and entered a reed swing.

According to Yu Daring, this section of the river is the most turbulent section of the entire Luanshui River, and the speed of the boat is not too fast when it first enters the water, but the further downstream it goes, the speed increases so fast that Shen Luo had to start using a penny to probe the bottom to slow down the boat.

It's just that he has a lot of knowledge of the fact that he is holding the boat, and it is nothing on the calm water, and in this rapid, although he is fully engrossed, he still inevitably bumps and bumps.

"Bang, bang, bang"

The boat swayed westward, crashing against the reef below the river, startling geese flying among the reeds on both sides, and waterfowl soaring.

When encountering some large eddies and reefs, he also had to do his best to push the boat away, otherwise he would be caught in the slightest accident and risk capsizing.

Shen Luo was soon so tired that he was sweating all over, and his eyes were full of stars, but under the pressure of the water, he couldn't allow him to rest, so he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

Along the way, he paid special attention to the banks of the river on both sides to see if there was any narrowing of the river, but because the reeds in the river were high and dense, his vision was affected, and he could not see accurately, so he could only judge according to the changes in the water level as much as possible.

After all, where the river narrows, the flow speed will also increase.

Shen Luo has been drifting like this for seven or eight miles, and he has not encountered any rocky beaches along the way, but there are a lot of sandbars in the middle of some rivers.

His ship plunged head-on into two narrow sandbanks.

The sandbar was covered with blue reeds, as if a natural channel had been carved out, and as soon as the boat entered it, it suddenly increased its speed and rushed out.

There was a muffled "bang", and the boat suddenly shook violently as it rushed out of the reeds.

Shen Luo's figure staggered and almost fell from the bow of the ship.

He held on to the penny, stabilized his figure, and looked forward, only to see that the front of the bow of the boat had crashed into a rocky beach with a radius of dozens of zhang.

Unlike the sandbanks you saw along the way, the rocky beach was full of fist-sized gray pebbles and mud, and where it collided with the bow of the boat, there was a brown reef much larger than the others.

Not only is the stone craggy and strange, but it is only two feet above the water, and more of it is hidden underwater.

Coincidentally, the bow of the ship was stuck in a groove in this strange stone, but fortunately it was not damaged.

Shen Luo looked at the banks of the river on both sides for a moment, and found that the rivers on both sides had narrowed a lot when they arrived here, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"The narrowing of the river, the rocky beach, the underwater reef, it looks like this should be the place. Shen Luo muttered.

According to Yu Yan, their ancestors found the nameless book of heaven under a rocky beach, and now this place is very consistent.

I thought it would take a lot of searching, but I didn't expect it to take much effort.

Shen Luo threw the penny onto the rocky beach, leaned over and tied the rope tied to the bow of the boat to the reef, and dragged it hard to make sure that the boat would not drift away with the water again, so he sat on the cabin and fell backwards.

Fang Cai had just supported the boat all the way, he was already exhausted, not to mention going down to the river to find the book of heaven at this moment, even if he had no strength to jump off the bow of the boat.

Shen Luo rested for a long time and ate some dry food before finally breathing a sigh of relief and standing up again.

He took a bundle of thumb-thick hemp rope from the cabin, tied one end firmly to the reef, and tied the other end twice around his waist, and then jumped out of the boat and came to the rocky beach.

The shape of the rocky beach is about an ellipse, consistent with the direction of the current, narrow from east to west, slightly narrow from north to south, the river reef stands at the west end of the rocky beach, Shen Luo stands next to the stones, looking into the river.

I saw that the river was dark and had a faint smell of mud, and the nearby rocky beach was covered with white sprays, and in the distance there were whirlpools of different sizes floating on the river surface, and I couldn't see the situation under the water at all.

He steadied a little, reached out a foot, and cautiously stepped into the water.

As a result, the rocks at the water's edge were loose, and they suddenly slid down with the slightest force.

Shen Luo stepped on the air, "poof", and fell into the river.

The river here was quite deep, and he was buried in the water, and he was violently rushed by the turbulent river, and his back hit the boulder directly, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and choke directly into several large mouthfuls of river water mixed with mud and sand.

In a panic, he struggled to turn, grabbed the boulder in his hand and climbed up, poked his head out of the water, took a sharp breath, and then coughed violently.

"Ahem......"

Shen Luo came to his senses for a while, stretched out his hand and wiped the river water on his face, feeling a little frightened in his heart.

"This place is really dangerous, but if it weren't for that, the Nameless Book wouldn't have been here for so long, and no one would have found it. Shen Luo thought so, and the desire for the Nameless Heavenly Book in his heart became stronger and stronger.

This time, he took a deep breath before pinching his nose and slamming into the water, holding the boulder behind him with one hand, and leaning under the water little by little.

After entering the water, he slowly opened his eyes, but found that the water in the river was a little turbid, and he couldn't see too much at all, and he couldn't see too far at all, so he could only rely on the help of the reef to touch the bottom of the river as much as possible.

To his surprise, the riverbed was so deep that when he put his feet on the mud and sand at the bottom of the river, the breath he was holding was no longer enough.

He endured the feeling of suffocation, and tried to look at the bottom of the river under the rocky beach, and dimly saw that there seemed to be some mud caves and stone caves that could not see the depth, and he couldn't really see it, so he hurriedly reached over and groped for it.

It was only for a short time, and the long breath-holding made his mind dizzy and his chest dull, so he could only hold on to the piece and climb a little bit back to the water.

Shen Luo gulped in the air, his chest heaving violently.

When his breath had calmed down a little, he plunged headlong into the water and sank to the bottom of the river.

This time, in order to stay at the bottom of the river for a little longer, he sank much faster, and as soon as he reached the bottom of the river, he immediately groped under the water.

It's just that the bottom of the water is dim, and there is mud and sand, and the eyes can help very little, and Shen Luo can only be like a headless fly, touching it randomly.

After a while, his breath ran out, and he had to return again.

After recovering a little, he hurriedly plunged into the bottom of the river and groped around under the rocky beach.

After a few back and forth, when Shen Luo floated to the surface for ventilation, the whole person was tired and cold, and his lips were a little bruised.

He hugged the reef and looked up slightly at the western sky, and saw that the sun had begun to set in the west.

"Try ...... again"

Shen Luo's eyes froze, he took another breath suddenly, and the whole person sank down again, diving towards the bottom of the river.

He had almost touched the mud caves and caves under the river reef, so he bypassed the stones and swam towards the south side of the rocky beach, touching the river bed with his palms against them.

This time, as his right hand squeezed through a small hole and leaned inside, his fingertips suddenly touched something very different from the stone.
