Chapter 657 Traveling Southeast
There are mountain springs everywhere in southern Xinjiang because the underground water resources are extremely developed.
When there is a lot of rain, it puts a great burden on the underground rivers and cave structures, so they spurt out.
The Shizhong River is cyclical, and its location is basically the same. When the pressure is enough to spray, the rocks will fall and block the hole again, and the spray will be sprayed again next year.
Now, we understand how this river valley was formed.
The problem is that one end of this river valley was blocked by a mudslide and the other end began to spray water. It is difficult not to think that this was premeditated.
And in the entire southern Xinjiang, there are people who have the ability to influence the natural scene and control the giant crab...
"Sister, you actually..."
Ran Xiaoyi's face was very ugly. Wu Zhu could indeed do it, but he couldn't do it easily. Excessive interference would naturally lead to retribution.
However, no one noticed Ran Xiaoyi, but immediately thought about how to save people.
The river valley is so deep that even if all the ropes at hand are connected together, it is impossible to reach the bottom. Moreover, there are many people dressed in Central Plains clothes below. Even if a rope can be hung down, they will not be able to stop them from climbing up.
The manic water flow had already rushed to the feet of those people, and some people were caught off guard and fell onto their backs. They also knew that they were in trouble.
If you run in the direction where there is no water, there will be huge boulders mixed with mud rolling down the mountain. If you run in the direction where there is no mudslide, there will be strong currents that can knock people away.
Both sides of the river valley go straight up and down. It is impossible to go up even with Qinggong. As for climbing up?
The wet rocks are enough to make your hands slippery, especially the rounded rocks that have been polished by water. It is difficult to stand, let alone climb up.
So it was obvious that the group of people below the river valley were running away in panic. Some were running in circles, some were hesitating in place, and some were trying to climb up, only to fall like dumplings.
Watching the water reach your calves is not as simple as swimming in the river. The current is driven by strong power and will form many rotating whirlpools and turbulence. Once the water reaches the chest, it is impossible for people to resist the impact of the current. .
On the river valley, standing high and seeing far, Wu Shaoyi immediately pointed to one side of the river valley and said:
"There's a slope over there, barely big enough for people to stand on!"
The place she was talking about was probably caused by a large piece of rock slab being washed away by water flow. Although it was a bit steep, people with light skills should be able to stand.
The most important thing is that if you can climb up and reach the top vines, even if you can't climb to the cliffs on both sides of the river valley, you can at least squat there and wait for the water to recede.
But people below can't see it. This is purely a matter of perspective. Looking from their direction, they can only see the rock wall straight up and down.
Everyone immediately stood on the natural stone bridge, shouted loudly to the group of people deep in the valley, and waved to attract their attention.
But the river valley was too deep and too far away. The other party seemed to have seen them, but could not hear what they said clearly.
There is no point in attracting the other party's attention, you have to tell them where to run.
If this continues, he will simply become the death witness of the other party.
After all, Qin Yan was the smarter one. She quickly signaled everyone to stop and stop shouting:
"Where's Yang Yiyi, come and call them with your sound skills!"
Yang Yiyi's voice was like thunder on the ground, like a tiger roaring in the forest. This was much more effective than ordinary people shouting at the top of their lungs.
But the strange thing is that everyone looked left and right after hearing this, but they didn't see Yang Yiyi.
What's going on?
Didn’t she run the fastest just now?
Why don't you see anyone?
A string of questions popped up in Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi's minds, and they immediately thought of it.
Damn it, she couldn't have just jumped down to save someone, right?
Given Yang Yiyi’s character, this operation is not surprising. –‐‐——–‐‐——
"The flood is coming!"
"Go to higher ground!"
"No matter how high it is, you can't climb it!"
The surroundings were in chaos, and Zhou Wenyi watched helplessly as the water filled everyone's ankles and calves, and continued upwards.
The clear spring erupting from the valley was contaminated with the dust on the ground and the soil brought by the mudslide behind it, and turned into a dim yellow turbid current in an instant.
The turbid current has a strong driving force. Once some weak ones are knocked down, if no one helps them, they will disappear into the turbid muddy water in an instant and cannot be touched.
Therefore, many people try to hold hands with those around them and try not to let themselves be swept away by the current.
But what's the use?
It's just a matter of delaying time.
The mudslides rolling down the hillside continued to intensify. The mud was mixed with boulders and piled higher and higher, as if they were blocking their way of life.
Climbing up the rock wall?
Zhou Wenyi, who was born in the Qijue Sect and reached the position of elder, was relatively reluctant to do so, let alone others.
Zhou Wenyi's fiery personality is a typical short-tempered one, but the word "righteousness" in his name is not random. Let him leave his other martial arts colleagues to escape alone?
He would rather die than do this.
More importantly, if he hadn't insisted on going deep into southern Xinjiang, he probably wouldn't have fallen into the trap of the southern Xinjiang people.
Due to both emotion and reason, it was impossible for him to escape alone.
Seeing that the water was getting higher and higher, Zhou Wenyi looked at Qin Yan and others on the stone bridge who were waving frantically in an attempt to attract attention.
Although he couldn't see the faces of the people on the bridge clearly, he could see the other party's Central Plains attire and knew that it must be one of his own.
But what's the use?
Even if they throw down a long enough rope, no one can get through.
After all, there is a spring spewing water down there, and the water pressure can even explode rocks. Who can resist the impact of the water?
The people on the bridge were shouting something to them, but due to the echo of the valley and the distance, they couldn't hear clearly. When it came to Zhou Wenyi's ears, all that was left was a hum.
With no way out, Zhou Wenyi was mentally prepared to die here. He was about to clasp his fists and shout a few fatal words to the people on the bridge. At this time, he saw the people on the bridge put down their hands one after another and stopped trying to attract people. attention.
Immediately afterwards, a loud and clear flute sound spread down the valley instantly.
The sound of the flute is not particularly sharp and eye-catching, and it would be almost the same if replaced by a suona, but the sound of the flute is very strange, as if it is ringing in the ears and echoing along the valley.
The sound is clear and beautiful, just like the singing of birds.
Zhou Wenyi has a fiery personality, but he unexpectedly loves music. When he hears the timbre, he knows it is a good flute. Normally, he would definitely be delighted.
But no matter how good the flute is, it’s useless now, right?
Immediately, I heard the sound of the flute echoing in the valley. For a moment, it even overshadowed the loud rumbling sounds of the rocks rolling down and the spring water erupting. In other words, it was more like treating them as background sounds. The sound of the flute took over and seemed special. Eye-catching and prominent.
The sound of the flute seemed to be playing a certain tune. Zhou Wenyi listened carefully and murmured: "Southeast? This tune... Southeast? Southeast!"
Zhou Wenyi grasped the key point. He jumped up and climbed up again by stepping on the rock wall on one side. At this time, he finally saw that there was a slope to the southeast of them.
A way out has been found!
