Yehe Town, Shulin, Wu Family Courtyard
"Ya... girl, don't be afraid, grandpa is here to save you!"
Wutu's eyelids trembled, and he suddenly got up from the kang. He touched his forehead and saw beads of sweat covering it.
"Could this be just a nightmare? Why do I have an ominous premonition?"
The old man got off the kang and looked at the old wooden pendulum clock. It was already three o'clock in the morning. Normally, he would have returned from hunting.
"Hiss...it's strange. I had a few drinks yesterday, so I wouldn't be so drunk as a bear."
Wu Tuman rubbed his head, and the pain from his temples finally made him realize the problem.
He smelled the sorghum wine brought by his granddaughter. In addition to the tangy aroma of wine, it also had a strong medicinal smell.
"Dog Walnut Guo? Now that you've grown up, you dare to give me the perspiration medicine!"
Wutu's face darkened, and he ran towards the granary like crazy. The items in his armor were indeed missing!
The old man was so angry that he beat his chest and said, "You silly girl, I have tried so hard to stop her, but I still can't stop her. These outsiders who have killed you a thousand times, I have to catch you and kill them all."
Wutuman put on his armor and rode a fast horse to the forbidden area and the horse-rejecting wall.
Panting, he boarded the sentry tower that had been erected on the tree. With the help of the towering watchtower, he immediately saw a U-Peng fishing boat floating on the vast river.
"Girl~"
"Come back quickly~"
"That's not a place you can go. If you go, you may not be able to come back~"
Wu Tu was so angry that he roared at the Wu Peng boat. However, the fishing boat had drifted a few miles away. If he hadn't been hunting accurately, he might not even have seen the fishing boat. The wind was blowing on the river. Even the shouts could not reach the boat.
This small corn boat followed the current and gradually crossed the arc peak and rippled into the river in Wu Coffin Town!
The old man was so anxious that the corners of his eyes were tearing apart, and he was staring straight at the river. He could already feel something strange on the river:
Around the awning boat, the misty and dense fog frequently surged with strange lights, gradually turning from fairy aura to coquettish and bright red. There seemed to be something swaying in the thick fog, refusing to show its true face. The valleys and peaks moved frequently, like a terrifying bull monster. With a bloody mouth, he swallowed the whole boat into his mouth and disappeared into the endless darkness.
Wu Tuman rubbed his eyes a few times, and the valley immediately returned to his Yuxiu state. He thought he was dazzled, but the Wu Peng boat disappeared for nothing, but it was a real strange thing.
In other words, the valley seemed to have erased all traces of them!
"It's broken. I have to go in and save her."
…
Squeak...squeak, squeak, squeak~~
The awning boat is an old thing from the previous dynasty and has only been repaired. It floats on the water like a bed that has been in disrepair and creaks when it is moved.
Yue Guanchao stood beside the boat and looked around. The bow of the boat broke through the river, sparking sparkling water. The mist rippled, and the blue sky was reflected on the river. Those who didn't know it thought they were sailing in the clouds.
He and Lu Fengjian shook the paddle boards from time to time to correct the course of the awning boat.
Yue Guanchao lay beside the boat and waved his hand. The fog dissipated immediately, the river rippled, and his face gradually appeared.
He looked at himself with wheat-colored skin, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, touched his chin and looked around, turned around and muttered: "Hey, what exactly is this mist? I don't think it's as evil as you Aweng said."
"Stop being such a slut and hurry up and take a look. The river valley we came in from behind doesn't seem to be the same place."
Yue Guanchao disrupted his reflection and stood next to Song Siyuan, looking into the distance.
Behind him, the broken water surface gradually calmed down, and his face still remained, with a sinister smile and he slowly sank into the deep water.
Song Siyuan pointed to the river behind them and explained: "Just now, I remember that the awning boat entered the canyon to the left, so the river bank should have curved to the right, but if you look at the current river, it actually curves to the left."
Lu Fengjian looked into the distance and said casually: "Indeed, maybe we were wrong. This river is endlessly winding. Who knows if it is still the original one!"
"It's okay if I just remember it wrong. I'm afraid there's something strange in this river valley."
Song Siyuan's words caused the four people on the boat to fall silent for a while. What was inexplicable was the weirdest thing!
Ding~ring ring ring ring~
They were looking at the river in trance, when the tinkling bells in the distance gradually sounded, like copper chimes, like bells, or like wind chimes. It seemed to come from all directions, like angry waves and floods that never dispersed, gradually surrounding them, and even the water surface was shaken. The ripples quivered.
Then, a flock of white-haired ravens flew overhead.
It was flying like a hula, as if it was driven away by something.
He picked up the telescope and looked carefully:
This raven is about the same size as a pigeon, with a snow-white body, oily fur, a fluffy fan-like tail, slightly yellowed claws, a pair of downward-curved sharp beaks, and a high-pitched chirp. Its eyes are slightly cloudy and gray, and there are obviously no pupils!
"There's something wrong with these crows. There's a big problem with their eyes."
Before Song Siyuan finished speaking, there was a loud snapping sound, and a white crow stood on top, screaming angrily at them.
"Suffer it!"
Before Yue Guanchao finished speaking, the mist on the river gradually rose, and in just one night, the awning boat was completely surrounded.
He looked around and saw vast fields with no river bank in sight.
Boom!
The awning boat bumped back and forth, and the four of them were tossed back and forth. It was impossible to stand firm.
"Enter Wupeng, don't get knocked down. The surface of the river is so evil, and I don't know what else is under the water."
Yue Guanchao asked the other three people to hold on to the railing of the boat and gradually walked towards the cabin.
Just as Song Siyuan was about to go in, the white-haired beast suddenly pounced on him. In panic, she staggered a few steps and fell into the river with a thud.
