Chapter 428 Stopping the Water Ghost (1st update)
Wu Chen first went down to the river to check to make sure there were no water ghosts at the bottom, and then came up and took Xing Yun's pills.
After several people finished taking the medicine, Xing Yun urged them to get down quickly. Yu Shian also picked people over there. Wu Chen here sent the people to the river one by one. Over there, Yu Shian and his group lifted Lighting the torch, like a fire dragon slowly walking towards the end of the mountain road.
Both groups of people started to move, and Wu Chen had no chance to take another look at Da Tou. If he had seen it, he would definitely have doubts. Why did Da Tou keep turning back, with eyes full of reluctance?
……
Several people were standing by the river. The water here was more than one meter or two meters deep. Wu Chen asked if he should go to the place where the river stopped flowing and then cross the river. Xing Yun gave him a scolding and said that time was running out now. Since there were no water ghosts here, he would Let's spend it here. If there is water in the place where the flow is cut off during the day, and water ghosts come over at night, won't we have to go back again?
Wu Chen felt that it made sense. Everyone wasted no time and quickly swam to the other side of the river. At this time, Wu Chen discovered something that he had not thought carefully about before. There was a mountain road on the other side of the river, but there was no one on this side of the river. .
Wu Chen concluded: "Look, no matter how carefully you think about it in advance, you will still be caught off guard."
Xing Yun snorted and said, "I didn't see what you were thinking. Zhou Quan, this is just the beginning, and there will definitely be surprises later. "
"Crow's Mouth!" Wu Chen said three times in a row: "Let's walk along the river. The river is not deep. If you encounter bumpy roads or roadless places, your skills are enough to deal with them. I go in front, you follow.”
Xing Yun did not refute this time and followed Wu Chen quickly along the river.
In the darkness, you can see on the mountains on both sides of the river, one side is like a fire dragon winding forward, and on the other side, several people are jumping forward quickly in the darkness.
......
By the time the group reached the Feicha River, they were already in a very embarrassed state.
Xing Yun looked at the river water being divided into two and flowing in different directions, and asked in confusion: "The water here is strong, but we have walked all the way, and it is fine if it keeps flowing. I can't figure out how this water can It just flows and disappears?”
"Let's see if the river is clean first!" Xu Da reminded.
Wu Chen stood by the river and looked up at the sky first. The moonlight that was still visible when he set out was now obscured by dark clouds. Xing Yun and the others could not see the wooden building on the hillside on the other side of the river. Wu Chen frowned and looked at the river carefully, then looked up at the wooden building hidden in the darkness in the distance.
Xing Yun waited impatiently and asked: "Is there one here?"
"Yes! We need to turn around and walk a while to take a look."
The group gasped. After walking around for a while, Wu Chen said, "The water here is clean."
Xu Da said: "Do you want to walk a little further? If we stay far away, we can swim there with more time."
Xing Yun asked: "They still have this distance before they want to come over?"
Xing Yun said and took out the medicine bottle again, divided a pill into each person and said: "This is the last pill. If we can't build the suspension bridge after we pass, we won't be able to come back."
Wu Chen took the pill and looked at Xing Yun and Gu You and asked, "Don't you feel anything when you get here?"
Xing Yun shook his head, but Gu You said, "Nervous, very nervous." Wu Chen nodded and said: "You swim over first, I will stay here. If the water ghost comes, I will find a way to stop it. You just keep your head down and swim forward."
"You'd better stay away from us." Xing Yun pushed Wu Chen: "Do you have to say it? Just don't say it and we understand it in your heart?"
Wu Chen laughed. After walking back for a while, I stopped, stared at the water, and raised my hand to wave to a few people in the distance, and a few people jumped into the water.
At the same time, the water on the other side suddenly surged, and Wu Chen could feel an invisible chill rushing towards this side.
Wu Chen's eyes widened, and he held the stone he had just picked up in his hand. He suddenly jumped up and rushed to the middle of the river, throwing stones at the water ghosts surging at the bottom of the river.
Wu Chen was also too nervous. He forgot how powerful he was. At this time, he threw stones with all his strength. The stones hit the water ghost in the water as planned, but at the same time, they also caused huge waves. Wu Chen even clearly knew that Seeing that the bottom of the river was exposed, the water ghost who had just approached was pushed back by the force of the water.
Wu Chen took the opportunity to step on the bottom of the river and stood up again.
Xing Yun and the others were swimming vigorously. Although they were a little far away, they were still carried by the water and drifted to the side uncontrollably.
Xing Yun couldn't spare any time now, otherwise he would have stuck his head out and cursed.
Wu Chen was scolding himself in his heart at this moment. What he did just now was tantamount to blowing the horn of attack, that is, using a loudspeaker to tell the enemy: I am coming!
Originally, I wanted to quietly reach the other side and catch the enemy by surprise. But now, when they pass by, the other side will be ready. What does this mean? It shows that plans made in haste are bound to be full of loopholes.
The more Wu Chen thought about it, the angrier he became. There were no more stones in his hands, but the strength of his palms became more and more powerful. The water ghosts were repeatedly overturned by the water, and they were unable to move even an inch.
But it also brought trouble to Xing Yun and the others. They were expected to swim to the other side in two quarters of an hour, but they just swam to the middle of the river two quarters of an hour later, and they were getting further and further away from Wu Chen.
Wu Chen didn't worry about that much. He just thought that since he had been discovered, he had nothing to fear. If he made more noise, it would be like fishing, driving the water ghosts towards the intersection of the river. , anyway, the further away from Xing Yun and the others, the better.
The water ghosts could smell the smell, but they couldn't get close. They kept making dull howling sounds, which made Wu Chen's chest feel tight. He was very anxious. He felt that it had been a long time, so why hadn't he heard it yet? The sound of Xing Yun and the others landing?
Wu Chen was not afraid of anything else. He was just afraid that if he was exhausted like before, if he suddenly fell into the water, no one could save him, and these water ghosts would definitely transform Xing Yun and the others into water ghosts at an extremely fast speed. !
Wu Chen wanted to turn around and ask, but the situation in front of him did not allow him to be distracted. There were more and more water ghosts, and the river was too wide. He had to take everything into consideration, so he could not be distracted for a moment.
Fortunately, after each huge wave, Wu Chen could rest for a while. After several times, Wu Chen had driven the water ghost to the intersection of the river, but Wu Chen didn't realize it. , why can he float above the river for so long? Wu Chen could only occasionally step on the exposed river bottom to sustain his strength, something Wu Chen couldn't do before.
If Wu Chen had known about his ability a long time ago, he might have crossed the river during the day and had a duel with the person on the other side who was quarreling with him. How could he have thought about swimming across? I'm also afraid of freezing myself.
……
Wu Chen stared at the river attentively, changing his position from left to right from time to time. He suddenly understood the benefits of doing things at night.
