Zhan's mood was a little up and down while sitting in the car one day. If it weren't for the fact that he had restrained most of his spiritual thoughts, the accident just now could have been completely avoided.
Looking at the light rain falling in the sky at this moment, and looking at Shao Yong's extremely anxious expression without saying a word, Zhan Yitian vaguely felt that the 20 minutes just wasted might have a serious impact on today's group.
"I hope I can arrive in Linzhi smoothly today."
Thinking of the seriousness of the matter, Zhan Yitian focused his attention on the road conditions again and did not dare to relax.
But at this time, God seemed to deliberately make things difficult for Shao Yong and his party, and soon it started to rain lightly.
The rain didn't seem heavy, but after a while it got heavier and heavier. The potholes on the road soon filled with water, and the protruding mud patches became slippery.
The car has begun to skid continuously while driving on the road, especially in sharp bends. When the truck passes by, it becomes more and more dangerous.
A large amount of mud and water splashed out by the rear wheels of the car on the cliff edge, splashing outward like a mud waterfall. The churning mud flowers splashed seven or eight meters high. Once the truck noticed that it was slipping, half of its rear wheel They will all hang out of the road.
What is even more shocking is that as the truck gradually goes down the mountain road, the road surface seems to become active, and the truck seems to be driving on a loach that gradually becomes softer, slippery and can squirm.
Under this situation, Shao Yong's speed also dropped again and again, making every effort to ensure that the truck could drive on the cliff road more safely.
But at this moment, the rain suddenly started to fall harder, and soon the rainwater flowing down from the mountain wall became more and more.
Looking from a distance, I saw long thin water columns flowing all along the mountain wall slopes along the road, like thousands of thin silver snakes swarming down from the heights of the mountain wall.
"No! If the rain continues like this for a while, there will definitely be a large-scale mudslide. We must rush through this area!" Shao Yong saw the situation in front of him, his sword eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and the road ahead was temporarily blocked. Straight, tap the accelerator to speed up the car.
The surrounding situation was exactly as Shao Yong said. Not long after, lumps of fist-sized mud and rocks began to roll down the sloping slope. Although most of the debris rolled directly from the road into the deep ditch on one side, there was still a large amount of debris gradually accumulated on the road, which made it even more difficult for the truck to move forward.
Zhan Yitian was also paying full attention to the road at this time. Since there were large balls of mud and large rocks wrapped in mud on the road, Zhan Yitian needed to use his spiritual power to quickly distinguish between the mud and the big rocks on the road. Stones, thus reminding Shao Yong to make the correct avoidance.
But after this continued for a while, Zhan Yitian also felt dizzy for a while, and the heavy consumption of his spiritual thoughts gradually made him unable to support himself.
"How far is it to reach Tongmai?" Zhan Yitian asked with sweat on his forehead.
"It's not far, there are still 5 kilometers left. But it's hard to say whether we can pass through the more than ten kilometers of naturally dangerous roads in Tongmaina in time."
Under Zhan Yitian's constant and precise prompts and command, Shao Yong was full of confidence in reaching Tongmai. However, based on his understanding of the natural dangers of Tongmai, it was already impossible to pass through today.
"If I can't get through Tongmai today, will I be trapped in Tongmai Town?" Zhan Tiantian asked with a frown.
"With heavy rain like this, I'm afraid the area has been blocked by mudslides. If the blockage is not serious, the road can be reopened in a few days. If it is too serious, it may be blocked for ten and a half days."
Hearing Shao Tong's answer, Zhan Yitian's heart became heavy.
Only then did Zhan Yitian realize that if it hadn't been for nearly half an hour of delay due to his multi-tasking crash, it would have been entirely possible for him to pass through Tongmai today.
Of course, Zhan Tiantian didn't want to give up when things got to this point, and thought to himself: "If Shao Yong can drive the car faster, maybe there is still a chance! It's just..."
boom! ! ! ! ! ! !
Suddenly, just as Zhan Yitian was thinking about how to increase the speed, a loud rumble sounded hundreds of meters behind him. Zhan Tiantian was startled, his mind condensed, and he quickly looked behind him.
With Zhan Yitian's cultivation in the late stage of Qi Condensation, he could see clearly from a distance of 300 meters with all his strength.
I saw a large piece of gravel and soil suddenly falling on the road behind me, dividing the three-meter-wide road into two sections. And the moment the mud and rocks fell, a large amount of mud and water poured down the slope of the mountain wall and quickly pushed up the nearly one-meter pile of mud, which began to move slowly along the road.
Since this section of road happens to be a downhill road, and the road is located in the gap between two mountain walls, when more and more rainwater on the slope collects on the road, after a while, the rainwater flows down the road. The rainwater did not cover the slowly moving pile of soil in front, and like a floodgate opening to release water, a wave of water more than half a meter high suddenly formed, chasing the truck driven by Shao Yong quickly along the road.
"No, there's a torrent forming behind us, and it's speeding up to chase us!" Zhan Tiantian was startled, and immediately reminded Shao Yong loudly.
Since the road formed a one-kilometer long road between the mountain walls on both sides, and the truck driven by Shao Yong happened to turn the first corner, so when Shao Yong heard Zhan Yitian's call, he immediately When he glanced at the rearview mirror, he didn't see the torrent forming behind him.
When he looked in the rearview mirror for the second time, he saw a wave of water nearly half a meter high hitting the opposite mountain wall. It only paused for a moment and formed a wave edge of almost two meters high. He turned around and ran towards his truck!
Seeing this, Shao Yong was shocked. He no longer cared about the slippery road. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the rear wheels kicked up more than ten meters of mud and water and rushed forward.
Rather than being drowned by this torrent, it is better to rush through this slippery road with all your strength and maybe still have a chance to escape!
As a soldier, Shao Yong's decisiveness is still so clear at this moment!
Beep! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Accompanied by the long honking of the horn, the truck began its desperate journey on this not-so-long road.
At this moment, two Tibetan pilgrims suddenly appeared a hundred meters ahead. After they heard the crazy roar of the truck, they turned around to see the big truck rushing behind them. They immediately exclaimed and quickly put the cart in their hands towards the side of the road, and pressed their bodies tightly against the mountain. above the wall.
Shao Yongwu had no time to take care of the two Tibetans in front of him at this time, because the slightest stop might cause a car crash and death.
So Shao Yong just tried his best to control the vehicle not to collide with the trolleys of two Tibetans on the side of the road, and did his best to have a clear conscience as far as possible.
Sure enough, before the two Tibetans woke up from the shock of the roaring truck, they were immediately swallowed up by the rolling torrent behind them.
All this happened too quickly, but it clearly fell into the eyes of Shao Yong and his party.
But before Shao Yong and Zhan Tiantian had time to feel sorry for the two Tibetans, a large tree fell horizontally 200 meters in front of them, blocking the road. At this time, there was no other way but to rush over. Law.
A stern look appeared on Shao Yong's face, and without slowing down at all, he drove the truck into the dense branches that were more than two meters high.
With a crackling sound, the truck shuddered and unstoppably rushed through the main tree pole as thick as a calf.
And when the truck driven by Shao Yong made another turn, one side of the road suddenly opened up, the mountain wall on one side suddenly disappeared, and the truck was driving on the cliff road again.
It was only then that Shao Yong suddenly slowed down the car. The rolling torrent behind the car, which could barely catch up, lost the dual support of the cliff and the ground next to it. With the inertia of the rush and the load that had just been broken by the truck, The branches fell directly into the rolling Parong Zangbo River below the cliff.
"Come out!"
"We're safe!"
Behind the carriage, Xiang Hui and the two goddesses cheered together in surprise and joy.
Only relative to their happiness, in the cab, Zhan Yitian and Shao Yong just breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking back to the moment when the two Tibetans were swallowed up by the torrent, they remained silent, deeply sorry for their own powerlessness. Feel sad.
"In the face of natural disasters, our human power is still very small. Don't be sad, little brother. Too many people have been lost on this road." After being silent for a while, Shao Yong glanced at Zhan Yitian's still gloomy face. He couldn't help but speak in relief.
Hearing Shao Yong's relief, Zhan Yitian sighed quietly, and said with a slightly softened face: "Maybe, listening to the roaring river below the mountain, I don't know how many people will be buried in it. If Brother Shao hadn't worked so hard, we would have become one of them."
Everything that happened just now was too sudden. Zhan Yitian understood that if a group of them were walking among them, although he had the ability to protect himself, he might not be able to take care of everyone around him.
Thinking of this, Zhan Yitian couldn't help but feel ridiculous for his overconfidence in ensuring that Xiang Hui and others would not have any accidents before setting off. Now he was even more eager to become stronger as soon as possible.
"The river water at the foot of the mountain... is terrible! If the Parlung Zangbo River forms a torrent and washes away the Tongmai Bridge, we will be completely trapped in Tongmai Town!"
Shao Yong, who had just calmed down, felt a thrill in his heart after hearing Zhan Yitian's words of thanks with complicated emotions, which reminded him of the Tongmai Bridge built in an area with unstable geology.
