All of us were carried by the current and rushed a long distance.
There was no way I could resist this situation. I could only close my mouth, nose and eyes, being carried by the current. I didn’t know where I would be washed away, so I could only let fate take its course.
I don’t know how long it took, but my body was colliding back and forth under the water. It hurt, but I didn’t dare to make any sound and curled up into a ball.
I don’t know how long it took, but I felt that the water around me had slowed down a bit, and my body seemed to be floating up.
Not long after, when the sky was above my head, I surfaced from the water. When I opened my eyes, it was already bright outside, and I was floating on the surface of the Yellow River. It was raining above my head. It's the kind that pours with rain.
The water level of the entire Yellow River has risen a lot, and the flow is still very fast.
I walked down the stream and looked around blankly, trying to find Tang Shangning and the others, but I didn't see anyone.
I was all alone on the river.
But I'm not worried about their safety. They are all practitioners. Staying in the water for half an hour is the most basic operation, so as not to drown in the Yellow River.
I still don't know where the water in the underground river came from, but it must have something to do with the ghost flower in the corpse grave.
As soon as Bai Zhan picked off the ghost flower from the corpse grave, the water rushed out and swept a group of us away from the underground river.
It is estimated that the ghost flower in the corpse grave cannot be found, which is a pity.
In this way, as the water flow continued downstream, I saw that the water level in the Yellow River continued to rise. After a while, the water level was almost overflowing the river dam.
Along with the appearance of evil things, there will always be some natural and man-made disasters.
Perhaps the appearance of the water demon is a sign that a flood will occur.
However, the dams on both sides of the river are built very high. Unlike decades ago, floods could easily occur and submerge villages.
After drifting downstream for a while, I saw that the scenery around me suddenly became familiar.
Not far away is Songwang Village.
I quickly swam towards the shore and climbed up with a lot of effort.
Being wet all over, I entered the village despite the heavy rain.
As soon as we entered the village, we saw many villagers busy migrating.
After asking, I found out that these villagers were worried that the Yellow River would burst and flood the village, so they had made preparations in advance and moved to a safe place first.
I had no choice but to follow the people in the village because I didn’t know where to go.
After following the people in the village for a while, I soon spotted two familiar figures.
It was difficult not to notice those two people, because they had two shiny heads, and they were none other than the two great monks Fa Tong and Fa Neng of Lingyan Temple.
As soon as I saw them, I felt like I was seeing my relatives and walked towards them quickly.
The two great monks soon saw me and became a little excited.
"Amitabha, Donor Wu, where did you go with Tang Ju? Why are you the only one coming back?" Zen Master Fatong looked at me in disbelief.
I then briefly told the two masters what happened after we fished the bronze bell out of the Yellow River and was sucked into the underground river by the whirlpool. The two great monks were speechless.
Zen Master Faneng said excitedly: "So, you got rid of that water monster?"
I nodded and took out the crystal from the Dragon Tiger Mirror: "Two masters, this is what was left after the water demon was burned."
The two masters looked at it carefully, and then Zen Master Fatong put his hands together and said again: "My Buddha is merciful. This evil thing has been killing people and killing innocent people. It has finally been eliminated."
"This should be something similar to a relic. If it is refined, it can be cultivated into a corpse elixir, which can be used to improve one's cultivation." Zen Master Faneng looked at me and said.
In this way, I followed the two masters from Lingyan Temple and chatted all the way.
During this period, I also saw several Taoist priests from Wulian Temple and several masters from Taishan Dai Temple.
I only found out after talking to them.
Last night, a group of us were on the boat looking for traces of Shuibao. Zen Master Fatong and other masters were in cars looking for Shuibao on both sides of the Yellow River. However, no movement was found along the way.
Then the fishing boat we were on disappeared inexplicably.
Those people thought that we were killed by water monsters, but they did not expect that so many things happened to us in the underground river, and most of us survived.
I moved with a group of them to a village ten miles away and settled down.
The phone was lost in the water, and Tang Shangning and the others could not be contacted.
I had a hot meal in the village. The rain kept falling outside, getting heavier and heavier, with no intention of stopping.
It wasn't until three or four o'clock in the afternoon that Bai Zhan and Wuque came back together.
When I saw the two of them again, I was really excited and felt like I was surviving a disaster.
However, what I never expected was that Bai Zhan would come back with those ghost flowers from corpse graves.
As soon as he saw me, Bai Zhan handed me the Tomb Ghost Flower with a smile, and said with a smile: "Take this, and work hard from now on. You also put in a lot of effort to get rid of the water demon this time." .”
I was a little embarrassed to accept it. The Shuiba crystal had already fallen into my hands. How could I be embarrassed to accept such a valuable thing again?
"Brother Bai Zhan, please keep this. I already have Shuiba's crystal." I said sheepishly.
"Just take it if I ask you to hold it. I don't know why, but it's because you have a good eye for him. He looks a bit like my brother Jiu, hahaha..." Bai Zhan said, and directly took the corpse. Tsuka Onika was thrust into my hand.
At this time, the Corpse Tomb Ghost Flower was much smaller and had shrunk to the size of a basketball. Perhaps because it had lost the ability to absorb nutrients, it looked a little shriveled.
Since Bai Zhan insisted on giving it to me, I could only keep it.
I glanced at Master Wuque. He looked a little lost. He was still holding the urn of Master Wuyan in his hand. He probably wasn't in the mood to care about these things.
After giving me the corpse tomb ghost flower, Bai Zhan left here and said he would see you again in the future.
This guy is really free and easy. He just puts his sleeves up and hides his merit and fame. He doesn't want anything in return. He is polite to everyone, as if he just went out to have some fun.
I have been waiting for Tang Shangning in this village. Fortunately, when it was almost dark, he returned with two people from the special team.
Seeing him appear in front of me, my heart felt at ease.
