The golden boat really entered the water. With the light on the boat, I saw a sinking surface of water around me. Just like the legend, the water of the river of life and death was black like ink.
After the ship entered the water, it slowly undulated on the surface of the water. The golden ship had a deep draft, and most of the hull was submerged in the black water.
"Be careful." The pasque-weed leaned against the hatch and said, "Except for this golden ship, anything that falls into the water will sink. No matter how good the water is, it will be useless."
I’ve heard Shoumei say before that, in the dark stagnant water of the River of Life and Death, anything that falls will sink with it. I don’t know if this is true, but when I look at the ink-like river, I feel timid. Two points, just like the pasqueflower, he stepped back, reaching out and grabbing the door frame of the cabin door.
The golden boat traveled very slowly in the river, like a snail. The river of life and death didn't look particularly wide, and the current was very slow, but the boat was so slow that it was so slow that people couldn't notice it moving forward.
The boat was walking so slowly, and it seemed that it had been driving less than three feet away. At this time, the torch light appeared again. It must have been the continuous pursuit of the group of people before, and finally arrived here.
No one wants these people to come over and make trouble, but we are on the boat. When we reach the river of life and death, we can no longer get off the boat. Moreover, the boat is not under our control and can’t turn around, watching the torch light coming closer and closer. , But helpless.
Those people had spotted the golden ship earlier and were chasing after it. We saw the light of the torch, and they must have seen the light on the golden ship, and the speed was involuntarily faster.
Anyway, the golden boat has been so slow, there is really no way, it barely walked about six or seven feet in the river of life and death, and the group of people chased to the river.
The legendary river of life and death is scary when you look at it. These people chase them so vigorously, as if they are not dead and energetic than the Yellow River. But standing on the banks of the River of Life and Death, everyone trembled, and a large group of people squeezed to the river, afraid to move forward.
Nan Batian’s legs and feet were unstable, and he was almost carried over by someone. After he came here, he hurriedly glanced at it. The golden boat has not gone far yet. If it is in ordinary river water, he can jump. Going down, swimming to catch up, it's just this dark river that made Nan Batian shiver involuntarily.
I don't want to cause any trouble, such a large group of people, among them there are really hidden capable people and strangers, it is also a trouble. However, the golden ship had already gone six or seven feet, and it was impossible to chase it across the river.
It's just that Nan Batian was very unwilling to come here, watching the golden ship go away, he couldn't swallow this breath.
"Go! Chase down the river!"
"I'm afraid..." The people around Nan Batian were all embarrassed. They knew very well that Nan Batian asked Xiahe to chase them, and also let them go down the river. Nan Batian himself couldn't go down: "This river. Mostly it should be the legendary river of life and death, everything will sink if it goes down..."
"Isn't that also a legend? There are too many things in the legend, how can you take it seriously?"
A group of people didn't dare to talk back, but no one would venture to jump directly into the river. Some took off their coats and threw them into the river.
If your clothes fall into the water in an ordinary river, you will have to wait a while before sinking slowly, but in the river of life and death, this light and fluttering dress is as heavy as it is.
, Just after falling into the water, he sank without leaving a piece of clothing.
Everyone has seen this scene. The river is really untouchable. The scene at the moment can't be clearer. If anyone enters the water rashly, it will sink to the bottom in a blink of an eye.
"The river of life and death is the river of life and death, there is no way to go down..." someone said to Nan Batian, "see if you can think of other ways..."
"Think of a way, the ship will be far away!"
Nan Batian still wanted to lose his temper, but he had just finished saying these words. Suddenly, there was a faint flute sound, not knowing where it came from.
The sound of the flute is indeed very ethereal, like the sound of silk and bamboo from Nine Heavens, everyone can hear it clearly. The flute is not loud, but it spreads everywhere.
When the sound of the flute fell into my ears, I was stunned, the bits and pieces hidden in my memory, surging out like a tide.
This flute sound is obviously Heshang Music, I have heard it more than once before, and I have also learned to play it. It's just that the fake score caused me a lot of trouble, so since then, I haven't touched the flute again.
Not only did I stop playing it myself, nor did I ever hear anyone play it again, but the Heshang tune was hidden in my memory.
However, the sound of the flute at this moment is so clear, I will not miss it, this is He Shangqu. I don't know who played this flute tune. It sounds a little different from what I heard before. The score will not change. The key is that in this place, He Shang Qu hits people's hearts with one sound, which makes people excited and can't help themselves.
When the tune just came, someone was scanning left and right, trying to distinguish the source of the sound. But there was the darkness of empty space, and I couldn't see everything clearly. The sound of the flute came from the left for a while, then from the right, and after a while, it seemed to be in all directions.
As a result, a group of people were completely dizzy, without knowing where the slight sound of the flute came from.
Moreover, as the sound of the flute spread, everyone seemed to be fascinated by it, one by one dumbfounded. The golden boat walked very slowly, and most of the pasqueflowers and Longjiu on the boat were also attracted by the sound of the flute. The pulsatilla raised his head slightly, as if he was intoxicated, even Long Jiu, who had been unsmiling, seemed to be engrossed in listening.
Listening, I felt something was wrong, because my mind was confused, as if my mind was stirred by the whispering flute sound. I have listened to the Heshang Music countless times before, and I have long been familiar with the melody of the music score, but at this moment, the Heshang Music seems to have a magical power that is indescribable, which makes it difficult for people to hold on.
Sure enough, I felt right. After the flute tunes drifted around for a while, the people on the riverside of life and death really couldn't hold them, dancing and dancing, as if they were crazy.
Puff!
At this moment, the few people in the front may be unstable and fall into the river of life and death. There is no doubt that as soon as these people fell into the water, they immediately sank under the water without even a single bubble.
The tragic situation of these people did not arouse the attention of others. At this moment, everyone is the same, forgetting who they are and where they are.
The people behind didn't even know the danger at this time. A few people fell into the water first, and the moths behind them jumped into the river one after another. There is no suspense at all, no matter who falls into the water, it is hard to escape
No bad luck.
In a few moments, most of the people on the river jumped down, leaving only some experienced elderly people who were still struggling to support.
But these people didn't mean to resist or flee. They just stood by the river dumbfounded, looking down at the dark water.
The young people around Nan Batian jumped into the river. His legs and feet were injured and he couldn't walk on his own. He fell to the ground, but he didn't feel any pain at all. With the sound of the flute, the Nanba angel climbed toward the river energetically. The formation was like something good in the river, and it couldn't be stopped.
At this time, my sanity was also blurred, but I was much better than these people, probably because I used to listen to this song often, so, despite my sanity, at least I knew that I was in a golden boat. Above the river of life and death.
Pasque Weng and Long Jiu are among the people present with the highest effort and the deepest experience. I know very well that Heshang Qu's musical scores with magical sounds trouble those who are not so firm in their minds, the more firm their minds become. The impact will be less, and it will last longer than others.
If talking about these, Long Jiu is obviously more advantageous than Pasqueflower. He lowered his head and held his blind cane with both hands tightly, struggling hard with the sound of flute music. The pasqueflower was no longer able to do so. After holding on for a long time, he gradually seemed to be enchanted, gently raising his head and body. He kept swinging, and walked towards the side of the ship step by step.
I know that the pasque-flower could not withstand the erosion of the magic sound. If he was allowed to walk to the side of the boat, he would definitely fall down. I barely got up, trying to stop him.
At this time, Shoumei ran from the bottom of the ship to the top. He was at the bottom of the cabin and was definitely the least affected. When he wandered out, he could see the pasqueflower walking towards the ship's side.
The two old guys grew up together since they were young and have been in friendship for most of their lives. When they saw something wrong with the pasqueflower, Shoumei wanted to save him while he was still awake. Shoumei came just right, so I can free my hand to stop Long Jiu.
When Shoumei went to rescue the pasqueflower, Long Jiu happened to be holding his blind stick and wanted to stand up. He obviously couldn't support it, lost himself. Like the pasqueflower, he had to go to the ship's side.
I grabbed Long Jiu's arm, and at the same time, a thought faintly came up in my messy mind. I have wondered before that the Zhenhe God Cow, who hadn't been seen for so long, suddenly appeared, and such a large group of people entered here with the golden ship with little effort. Is there any mystery in this
Up to now, things have been laid out in front of them, and these people who have arrived here have no good end. Maybe from the moment they enter, it is equivalent to entering the ghost gate.
Long Jiu's foundation is solid, and now he is going to the side of the ship. I can't stop him a bit. He is stuffed with his head, and desperately throws away his footsteps. I can only drag him desperately.
While we were constantly struggling and entangled with each other, I took a look at the riverside. There was no one on the riverside. People fell into the river. Only Nan Batian was left. Because of the inconvenience of movement, I was at the end. However, half of Nan Batian's body had already reached the water from the riverside.
The remaining torches and wind lanterns were scattered all over the ground, and most of the torches were extinguished. Only a few wind lanterns remained. Vaguely, I saw a person standing in the darkness behind the river.
