Chapter 299: Ghost Gate Waterway
The Ghost Gate Waterway has arrived.
Hua Wuying and Hua Xiaolan were both curious and wanted to lean forward to take a look.
But the next second, they heard Yuan Ye shouting urgently!
“Don’t move!”
He didn't dare to look back, and his voice was extremely nervous: "If you move, the boat will be unbalanced and it will be difficult for me to control the oars!"
When the two of them heard this, they had no choice but to sit back angrily.
They are extremely majestic practitioners outside, but at this time, they must listen to the boatman.
There was only a gentle breeze on the lake, but the water flow was unimaginable. The boat kept shaking, and the things in the tent began to tilt around, constantly colliding with Hua Wuying and Hua Xiaolan.
The two of them... were a little nervous.
The boat was shaking more and more violently, as if it was about to topple over at any time, and a large amount of lake water kept splashing in. The two people who had lived on land since childhood had never seen such a situation. Looking at the endless lake outside the boat, they felt faint. There are worries about life and death.
We have just entered the Ghost Gate Waterway!
"Brother Yuan!"
Hua Wuying asked loudly: "Is this, is this normal?"
"Not normal!"
Yuan Ye yelled: "The water is very fast today!"
His legs seemed to be rooted to the deck, and he remained firm no matter how the boat rocked from side to side. .
But his hands controlling the oar were tense to the extreme. His muscles were as tight as stones, blue veins popped out, and the joints of his hands turned white.
"You two!"
Yuan Ye gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted: "Do you still want to go forward?! If I had encountered this situation before, I would never dare to go forward. It’s too dangerous!”
Hua Wuying was about to speak when he suddenly heard a violent cough from Hua Xiaolan.
She held the tent house with one hand and covered her chest with the other, coughing in great pain.
Either she was not used to the rocking ship, or she just happened to be ill. Blood began to ooze out from her skin. In a blink of an eye, the blood stained her clothes. He closed his eyes and was about to fall into coma.
Hua Wuying's pupils narrowed and he quickly took action and grabbed Hua Xiaolan over.
In this small tent house, if she fell and her head hit the corners of the boxes, she would not have to go to the Spiritual Mirror Sect and would go directly back to Wan Du Mountain to have a banquet...
"Speak quickly!"
Outside, Yuan Ye urged anxiously: "I won't come back!"
Hua Wuying looked at Hua Xiaolan who was bleeding and unconscious in her arms. , gritted his teeth: "Return..."
But midway through his words, there was a sudden pain in his arm.
That was when Hua Xiaolan opened her eyes and pinched his arm hard.
"Junior Sister Hua?!" Hua Wuying was shocked.
"No, I won't reply..." Hua Xiaolan looked at him weakly, but her tone was extremely firm: "There is not much time, I can't afford to wait..."
"Junior Sister Hua!" Hua Wuying frowned: "Whether you sharpen your knife or cut firewood, don't make fun of your own life! If you are just in case, what's the point of getting the fairy grass?!"
"...I can die, but..." Hua Xiaolan clutched Hua Wuying's sleeve tightly: "I have countless classmates in Wandu Mountain...it's too late...we have to hurry...wait, I can't wait..."< br>
Hua Wuying was shocked: "Wandu Mountain? Fellow disciple? Aren't you treating yourself?!"
But Hua Xiaolan was speechless. She closed her eyes and fainted.
The hull of the boat was shaking more and more violently. Hua Wuying was holding on to the penthouse with one hand and Hua Xiaolan with the other, and his heartbeat was racing.
Yuan Ye just said that it will be the rainy season in a few days. The water flow in Guimen Water Channel is extremely turbulent. It is like this today, and if it is like this tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the rainy season will come in a few days, how can we get to the Black Mountain Islands?
As for what Hua Xiaolan said...
Hua Wuying thought that a few days ago he had guessed that she wanted to collect rare herbs to treat illnesses, but she said that her "guessing was not entirely correct."
“It turns out that she is not running around to cure her own illness at all, but for the sake of fellow sects in Ten Thousand Du Mountain?”
“There must be changes in Ten Thousand Du Mountain. She is doing this for the sake of the sect. ..."
He looked at Hua Xiaolan... Although she was unconscious, she was still frowning in pain. Her small face was extremely pale, and cold sweat was mixed with the blood beads oozing from her skin.
She ran thousands of miles despite her injuries, but it was not for herself at all.
Although the two had only been together for a few days, Hua Wuying had already vaguely discovered that Hua Xiaolan was not a real witch.
But why? Why did she act like this when she could sit upright?
Is it just as she said, when walking in the world, the most important thing is to avoid showing weakness to others?
"Brother Yuan!"
Hua Wuying shouted in a deep voice: "If you continue to move forward, can you support me?"
"I can, I can hold it! But when we get to the small island ahead, we have to dock, and it will take more time on the road!" Yuan Ye shouted, with a surprised tone: "You really want to go forward?!"
"Go forward !"
Hua Wuying gritted his teeth and said: "Don't go back!"
Yuan Ye also gritted his teeth: "Okay!"
I don't know him either. Whether it was because he was afraid of being poisoned, or because he also wanted to go deep into the Montenegro Islands, after making up his mind, the fear on the young boatman's face gradually faded, and instead revealed a look of incomparable perseverance.
"Damn..." He said bitterly: "I don't believe it anymore, this time I will smash this hell gate!"
The boat was still rocking in the rapids, as the waves became more and more The bigger it got, the ship was even thrown up high and dropped heavily several times.
Hua Wuying was worried that it would affect Yuan Ye's control of the paddle, so he did not dare to move. He could only hug Hua Xiaolan tightly and protect her with his arms and body to prevent the materials flying around from hitting her. .
The water splashing from outside the boat kept splashing on him. He had no idea whether the boat was moving forward or whether the boat would capsize when the next wave came. He could only half-close his eyes and struggle to hold on. .
It seemed that not long after, and it seemed that a long life had passed, the boat seemed to hit something and was severely beaten.
Hua Wuying was startled, thinking he had hit a rock, but when he suddenly raised his head, he saw a shoal in front of the deck ahead.
Yuan Ye had already thrown down the oar, spread his hands and arms, and threw himself on the shoal, panting heavily, as if every hair on his head was paralyzed.
"Arrived..."
He finally understood: "But in the next few days, I will have to experience such dangerous situations countless times..."
Hua Wuying was in a trance, and his body seemed to be withdrawn from the violent shaking. Just as he was about to stand up, his head felt dizzy, and he sat back down again. He even felt faintly like vomiting.
Even after opening martial arts and embarking on the path of spiritual practice, I would still get seasick...
So he simply stopped standing and carefully helped Hua Xiaolan back to her seat. The wall of the house, looking sideways out of the boat.
The sky is still cloudless, the sun is shining, and there is a gentle breeze.
I’m afraid no one can figure out how the lake could be so dangerous in such good weather.
“It’s almost noon.”
Hua Wuying looked at the scorching sun in the sky and smiled bitterly: "It has been more than an hour."
Soon, he seemed to have thought of something and murmured: "Yes, Qianlong Baijie will meet for the first time." After the first round of competition, it is already the third day and it is noon again. The second round of competition... is about to begin.”
