Chapter 8 Chapter 8: A Scroll of Leisurely Unfolding

In order to take a shortcut, Riwobuji chose to take the water route.The waterway is the underground river channel that goes straight into the belly of the mountain in Tiankeng. Riwobuji's choice was beyond everyone's expectations, especially She Shiyun, her eyes were rounded, and Asahiriwobuji said in a fuss: "Brother, you are not looking for death, are you? Didn't you always warn me Don't push the boat into that hole?" Riwobuji smiled but did not answer. Riwobuji chose to take the waterway of the underground river, Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng couldn't understand it, because the rushing water in the tiankeng seemed to be sucked in by that dark hole, and the unfathomable depths inside The darkness is chilling.

Riwobuji and Zhaofeng saw the worries of She Shiyun, Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng, and continued to say nothing while grinning while preparing torches. Only these two people seem to have a plan in mind. She Shiyun said to Riwobuji almost in a begging tone: "Brother, can we not take that waterway?" But Riwobuji jokingly said to She Shiyun: "What? Are you afraid? If you are afraid, stay here with Mr. Wu and the others. Let's just go." Seeing that Riwobuji was deliberately provoking her, She Shiyun gritted her teeth and said, "If you take this waterway, you will take this waterway. Anyway, I have been guessing where the dark river leads to. This time, I will simply mess it up." clear."

Riwobuji gave She Shiyun a thumbs up, and said, "Sure enough, she is a hero among women! Women don't give way to men! Good! Maybe there is something hidden in it!" She Shiyun curled her lips and ignored Riwobuji. On the contrary, Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng felt a small drum in their hearts, and they realized that an adventure in the dark was about to begin again.Facing the experience of traveling through the darkness time and time again, Zhang Ziheng's whole nerves were a little numb.He showed an indifferent daze. The boat was poled by Riwobuji, out of the pier, rowed into the reed marsh, and then rushed out of the water curtain formed by the big flying water, and the water flow suddenly became turbulent.The boat went around the tiankeng along the water, and the huge water hole appeared in front of us.

The torrent of water gurgled into the bottomless cave.Sure enough, it seemed that there was a huge monster sucking water vigorously inside. Riwobuji straightened the boat along the trend of the water with the long pole in his hand, then stood firmly on the bow of the boat, and the boat floated straight into the deep and dark cave like a leaf. The boat was submerged in the dark cave, which was dark and empty, and there was no other sound, only the slight sound of water passing through the cave and the sound of water dripping in the cracks in the rocks on the top of the cave. Zhaofeng lit a torch and walked to the bow, standing with Riwobuji.

A sense of silence far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and isolated from the world suddenly hits.A chill rose from the soles of the feet to the forehead, and Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng who were sitting in the cabin couldn't help hugging each other. Although the torch in Zhaofeng's hand was burning persistently, such a flickering light was tightly surrounded by the ink-like darkness, making it appear very small.The light and shadow that should have been shining on the clear water surface seemed to have also turned into black dark lines. In a world dominated by darkness, the oppressive black wraps everything tightly.

This is a crossing that can't be foreseen in the future. The rushing river flows in such a river hidden deep in the hinterland of the mountain, which seems to be lonely as well. The river channel in the cave is sometimes wide and sometimes narrow.The wide place is like a big pond. The river water looks much more gentle when it passes through such a place, and the water flows more slowly, just like a wild horse that has run away temporarily stops to rest.But the narrow place is like a crack split by a stone axe, and the water has become turbulent and violent, and the boat can only go straight through.Riwobuji seemed to be very familiar with this dark river. Whenever he approached such a narrow gap, he would use the long pole in his hand to straighten the boat, and the boat almost brushed against the dark rocks on both sides...

The people on the boat didn't speak, they all stared wide-eyed in the dark. Naturally, this typical karst cave is also full of strange rocks. Against the background of the shadows of the torches, it looks even more hideous and terrifying, as if entering a maze of ghosts. . I don't know how long I have walked through the dark cave, which is fast and slow, wide and narrow, even time seems to be abandoned outside my consciousness. Finally, a dazzling light appeared not far ahead.This long-lost light looks so gorgeous and bright not far ahead.She Shiyun, who had been sitting quietly in the cabin, couldn't help standing up, thinking that the boat was about to pass through the cave that was tightly shrouded in darkness.

When the boat sailed under the gorgeous light, it was discovered that it was a skylight exposed in the cave dome.There is also a vigorous and whirling green tree hanging from the window of the skylight, and the agile figure of a monkey flashed on the tree. This gorgeous light from the skylight is fleeting.The boat quickly went deep into the deep and dark cave.She Shiyun had no choice but to sit down again.But finally let out a stagnant suffocating breath from the chest that has been suppressed all the time. During this long journey, the boat passed through four or five such skylights, large and small, in the dark cave. Every time it passes through such skylights, you can experience the magnificence and dazzling sunlight more clearly.Later, when such a skylight appeared again, She Shiyun, Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng couldn't get excited anymore.They only hope to get out of this thick and thick darkness as soon as possible...

Finally, the boat sailed out of the cave, but after passing through a canyon, the boat re-entered another cave. Desperation grew in She Shiyun's heart, and she yelled at Riwobuji who had been standing on the bow of the boat, "Brother, is it over yet?" Riwobuji ignored him, just stood at the bow of the boat, and his feet seemed to have taken root. When the boat sailed out of the cave again, the water that had been squeezed aggressively spread out like satin.A charming picture scroll like a paradise unfolds leisurely in front of She Shiyun and the others...
