On the morning of the third day, as soon as I opened the curtains, I saw dark clouds and heavy rain outside. The gray sky and earth were completely shrouded in rain.
In such horrible weather, Liao Xianer will definitely not go out, right?
I secretly thought about it and walked to the door. As soon as I reached the peephole, I saw Liao Xian'er had already opened the door and went downstairs with a few subordinates.
I quickly got dressed, grabbed my raincoat, and ran outside.
When I came downstairs, I happened to see Liao Xianer and his party wearing raincoats, walking through the lobby and walking outside.
I quickly followed him.
Standing at the door of the hotel, I noticed that Liao Xianer and his group were walking towards the bank of Jinjiang River and arrived at a pier.
There are many cruise ships parked next to the pier. When the weather is nice and sunny, many tourists will rent boats and paddle on the river.
It's just that with the weather like today, no one can be seen except Liao Xian'er and his party.
I stood in the distance and saw Liao Xian'er and his party getting on a cruise ship and rowing towards the center of the river.
What was she doing on the river in such a rainy day? I felt more and more something was wrong, so I hurried to the dock and knocked on the guard box.
An old man stuck his head out of the window and shouted: "Young man, why are you knocking so loudly? My ears are almost deafened, old man."
I waved my hand apologetically, and then asked: "Uncle, let me ask, what were those people doing on the river just now?"
"You said those people were crazy about going to the river to enjoy the rain. What are the young people thinking in their minds these days?"
The old man looked at the pounding rain outside and shook his head helplessly.
"Uncle, I also want to rent a boat. Can you help me catch up with them?"
With my rowing skills, I definitely couldn’t catch up with Liao Xianer, so I had no choice but to ask the old man for help.
"Boy, you are crazy, old man, I am not crazy!"
The old man waved his hands repeatedly: "I still want to live a few more years."
"Uncle, I'll give you money!"
I said quickly.
"No matter how much money I give, the old man can't agree to it. Now that I'm old, just let me go!"
After a while of wrangling, the old man finally walked out of the guard box, put on his bamboo hat, and went to untie the reins of a cruise ship.
Of course he was not forced to do this, just because I gave him a number that he couldn't refuse.
The uncle is an old boatman and has excellent paddling skills. After a while, I could already see Liao Xianer's boat.
On the cruise ship at the moment, several bodyguards were rowing the oars vigorously, while Liao Xian'er stood on the bow of the boat, staring at the water with a solemn expression.
Her left hand held the Bagua disk that day, turning her body and changing its direction from time to time.
Suddenly, Liao Xian'er's eyes brightened, she pointed in one direction, and she didn't know what she said to the bodyguards.
Immediately, she jumped into the river and disappeared.
Several bodyguards did not hesitate, followed closely, and jumped down one after another.
After a while, there was no one on the cruise ship, drifting aimlessly on the river.
"Uncle, hurry up, row across!"
I realized that Liao Xianer must have discovered something, and quickly urged the uncle.
But when the uncle saw a few people diving, he was already dumbfounded.
"What on earth did these young people do? They actually committed suicide!"
"Young man, I know you want to be kind and save people, but in this horrible weather, even I don't dare to go into the water easily, so let's forget it!"
"Let's go back and call the police!"
With that said, the old man was about to turn the bow of the boat and row back.
"no!"
I quickly shouted: "It's too late, uncle, just listen to me!"
Under my insistence, the uncle could only sigh helplessly and row towards the center of the river.
Five minutes later, the cruise ship had arrived at the place where Liao Xianer jumped off just now.
I stood on the bow and looked underwater with my eyes wide open.
The river was misty and dark, with ripples in the heavy rain, and nothing could be seen at all.
Impossible. I recalled Liao Xian'er's behavior just now holding the tray and turning it on the boat, and I was sure that she must have discovered traces without characters, but why couldn't I see anything?
In the midst of doubts, suddenly, a picture faintly emerged from the depths of the river.
Rows of farmhouses stand on the bottom of the water, arranged in an orderly manner, with rolling green hills and cultivated fields in the distance. On the road, you can even see pedestrians walking back and forth. Chinese website
Mirage?
I quickly rubbed my eyes, but when I opened them again, the houses, fields, and pedestrians all disappeared.
But I can be sure that I was not dazzled just now, and I did indeed see that scene.
It seems that if I want to find no characters, I can only go deep into the water to find out.
Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate and patted the uncle on the shoulder.
"Uncle, please go back, I'm leaving."
After finishing speaking, I took out my mobile phone, briefly told Lonnie the situation here, asked them all to come to Xiushui Town to meet up, and then jumped into the water with a pop.
I only heard the uncle's exclamation, and my whole body sank downwards.
The cold river water submerged me instantly. I held my breath, put my head down, and slid my limbs hard, diving deeper into the water.
As I continued to dive, the water pressure increased. Soon, I felt a suffocation in my lungs, a suffocating feeling that was almost unbearable.
According to my estimation, I guessed that I had dived thirty or forty meters, but I still couldn't see the bottom of the water, and the mirage just now never appeared again.
I continued to dive for more than ten meters, but still found nothing. Just when I couldn't bear it anymore and was about to surface, suddenly, I saw a vicious black hole-like whirlpool opposite me.
The whirlpool was spinning rapidly in the deep water, getting bigger and bigger. I wanted to escape, but I instantly felt an inexplicable gravity that sucked me into it uncontrollably.
After a while of dizziness, I felt like my stomach was churning, and I fainted.
I don’t know how long it took, but I woke up and found that I had been washed up on the shore.
I struggled to get up, only to find that the shore was deserted, but not far away, I could faintly see a row of farmhouses.
Only then did I realize that I had not returned to Xiushui Town, but had entered the mirage I had seen before!
After glancing around, I saw no sign of Liao Xianer and his group. Instead, not far away, I saw several peasant women washing clothes on the shore.
These women were simply dressed, squatting side by side, chatting and laughing, and looked just like ordinary peasant women.
However, when I walked in, I discovered that their faces were very pale, and the expressions on their faces were a little strange.
Naturally, the scene in the mirage cannot be judged by common sense. I took a long breath and calmed myself down.
