Wei Buchi and Tantai Wutian also listened carefully with their ears sideways, and sure enough there were clattering and pattering sounds mixed in with the gurgling, the whispers heard just now were probably the same sound, and the combination of the two is exactly like It was the sound of running water.
In this way, there is no one in front, but a river?
The three of them continued to walk forward, and sure enough, the further they walked, the heavier the humidity in front of them. The sound of the river flowing is also clearer.
After walking forward for a while, a large underground river appeared in front of the three of them. The river was flowing very fast, and it was flowing down the steps, and it was hard to see where it was going. In other words, there are steps on one side of this underground river, and the cave wall on the other side. If there is no such river, you can walk down the steps and you will reach the end of the cave.
Although they had already seen the underground river, the steps the three of them were standing on were still far away from the river. The three of them walked for a while, and finally reached the end of the steps. The last step was not in the water.
The three of them had to go down into the water if they wanted to move on.
Not knowing the depth of the underground river, the three of them did not dare to rush into the water.
Tantai Wutian picked out a stone from the nearby cave wall and threw it into the underground river. As soon as the stone fell into the water, it was rolled twice by the current before slowly sinking into the water.
Wei Buchi, who was watching from the side, said: "Brother Tantai, little master Rongxin, I think the water flow of this underground river is too fast, I'm afraid it will not be easy to wade through, and I don't know where the river goes"
The little monk Rongxin said: "We can't go back, right?"
Tantai Wutian said: "Although the water flow of this underground river is very fast, but I just saw that the stone fell down, it seems that it is not very deep, at most it can reach our waist and abdomen, if we are careful, we should be able to wade through it."
Wei Buchi and the little monk Rongxin looked at the underground river and nodded.
Tantai Wutian said again: "We will go into the water for a while, we must take care of each other, and if we see someone being washed away by the water, we must hurry up and hold him back."
Wei Buchi and the little monk Rongxin nodded again.
Tantai Wutian said: "Among the three of us, I live in the south for a long time, and I have the best water quality. I'll go into the water to explore first, and then follow after watching my gestures."
After finishing speaking, he took off his shoes and clothes and wrapped them into a bag to put on his head. He first tested the temperature of the water with his feet and found that the water in the underground river was a bit warm.
Logically speaking, since there is no sunlight here all year round, the water in the underground river should be cold, but the water in this underground river is actually warm. Could it be that the source of this underground river is actually a hot spring?
That's fine, as long as it's not too hot, warm water is better than cold water. If you stay in cold water for a long time, people can't stand it.
Tantai Wutian was thinking, while slowly sitting on the steps, and then supported the steps with his hands and slowly lowered his legs into the water, he suddenly felt something was wrong. It turned out that the surface of the underground river water was warm. The water below was freezing cold.
There is only one possibility in this situation, that is, there are two sources of this underground river, one is a hot spring and the other is a cold spring. It seems that those who enter the water will have to go through the test of ice and fire.
Tantai Wutian didn't hesitate any longer, and slipped into the water all at once.
The depth of the underground river was deeper than he felt, almost reaching his chin. As soon as he entered, the rushing river pushed his whole body back, and he hurriedly stepped on the water to stabilize his body.
He tried to swim downstream in the underground river, and felt that although the current was rushing, he could still control his body, so he waved to Wei Buchi and the little monk Rongxin.
Wei Buchi originally thought that the depth of the underground river was as deep as Tantai Wutian's waist and abdomen, and he thought it would be enough to just wade through it, but now he saw that the depth of the water reached the level of Tantai Wutian's jaw. , couldn't help but frowned a little embarrassed.
Although he has swum in the river in his hometown, he is a good student after all, and his water skills are not very good. Seeing that the underground river is so deep and very fast, he is a little worried that he will not be able to swim.
But seeing that the little monk Rongxin had already taken off his shoes and clothes and wrapped a small bag on his head and put it in the water, he had no choice but to take off his shoes and clothes and put it on his head, but he put the sleeves of his coat He tied it around his neck with a knot, and he was worried that when he went into the water, he would be in a hurry and forget that the clothes on top of his head would fall into the water and be washed away by the water. At that time, it would be embarrassing to come out of the water naked.
That is to say, members of Haoran Sect pay special attention to dress and etiquette, while Tantai Wutian and young monk Rongxin have no such scruples at all, but for Wei Buchi, if there is no other way, he will never be naked like he is now .
However, he couldn't help hesitating, the little monk Rongxin had already entered the water and caught up with TantaiWutian, both of them were waving to him while stepping on the water in the underground river.
Although he is muscular and fit, but his naked body is being watched by two pairs of eyes. Although he is looking at two men, although he may not be able to see clearly in the dark, he still feels ashamed and never hesitates. Jumped down with a plop.
Tantai Wutian and the little monk Rongxin saw that the underground river was fast and deep, and they tried to go down slowly, but because he was ashamed, he jumped down without bothering to test the water. Immediately because of the unsteady footing, he was washed by the river, and his whole body fell down. He took a sip of water with a "poof", panicked immediately, his hands fluttered, and the water rushed again, and his whole body wobbled After going down the river, I had to take a few more sips of water.
Tantai Wutian and little monk Rongxin saw his appearance and thought to themselves that this kid can't swim, so they quickly turned sideways in the water and swam to both sides, avoiding the direction he was rushing towards.
After a while, Wei Buchi was rushed between the two of them, his hands were flapping, the clothes on his head had already fallen into the water and were soaked, hanging around his neck and floating on the water behind him.
Tantai Wutian and the little monk Rongxin hurriedly stretched out their hands and grabbed him with each arm.
Wei Buchi was still struggling, Tantai Wutian and little monk Rongxin were stepping on the water, they both lifted his arms up at the same time, but he couldn't use his strength, and felt that although his whole body still felt like he was going down. The momentum was strong, but anyway, his head floated on the water and his body stabilized.
Then he opened his eyes that were closed by the water just now, looked around, saw Tantai Wutian and little monk Rongxin holding him on both sides, and couldn't help but blush.
Tantai Wutian looked at him and said: "Brother Wei, don't you know the nature of water?"
Wei Buchi blushed and said: "Brother Tantai, I learned all the water skills from the small river at the head of the village. This is the first time I have entered the water of such a deep and fast-flowing river."
"Since this is the case, Brother Wei, you will swim slowly beside us for a while, and don't stay too far away from us." (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
