Chapter 154: Self-Rescue in a Desperate Situation
"What are your plans?" After seeing Zao Wou-ki's crazy moves, they immediately thought of even crazier plans, and everyone regarded Zao Wou-Ki as the backbone, but they didn't want Zao Wou-Ki to take another easy risk.
"I'm going to go out of that underground river to see if I can find something to solve my stomach and asked, it's been a day, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat anymore." Zao Wou-Ki said.
Unconsciously, everyone has been in the snake cave for almost a day, and the sound of water above the snake cave is still roaring, indicating that the red tide has not yet receded, and no one knows how long it will take to stop.
Just when Zao Wou-Ki was about to sneak out through the underground river, he was stopped by everyone, Wang Yifu raised his watch and said: "It's 3:40 in the morning, it's pitch black outside, you can't see anything, you can't go out, I suggest you wait another two hours to see, maybe the red tide will recede by then." ”
Everyone also thinks it's better to wait for two hours, anyway, they are not in a hurry, they all sit on the spot and rest, without consuming much energy in the body, and the anti-first antibody will pass.
Zao Wou-Ki doesn't think so, everyone's location is within the coverage of the red tide, not too far from the river, although the terrain is high, but the thunderstorm does not know when, the water level of the river will definitely rise, whether it will cover the snake cave is not necessarily, besides, it does not matter whether the red tide recedes or not, as long as the thunderstorm outside does not stop, everyone can only stay in this snake cave, the problem of eating always has to be solved, a little later and a little sooner is just a matter of time.
Of course, Zao Wou-Ki still has a reliance that he didn't tell everyone, that is, a certain night vision ability, Zao Wou-Ki has also devoured the 'Dragon Pill', and naturally has the night vision ability of a snake, what Zhao Wou-Ki didn't expect is that the 'Dragon Pill' he swallowed last time was actually a prehistoric animal, no wonder the two look a little similar.
After making up his mind, Zao Wou-Ki still decided to go out by underground river, but Wang Yifu insisted on not letting Zao Wou-Ki go, and finally proposed the piranha, which is a social animal, small in size, fast, and very fast in devouring the flesh of other animals, which is really difficult to deal with.
Zao Wou-Ki thought about it, and was also afraid of piranhas, that thing was not easy to deal with, mainly because there were too many, and there were too many ants to bite the elephant, but after thinking about it for a while, he still planned to try, it was not his character to sit back and wait, especially when he suddenly remembered the speedboat that entered the Amazon River last time, there was still some gasoline on it, and if the thunderstorm continued, all the combustibles would be wet, and there was no way to make a fire, which was a big problem.
There must be combustibles, Zao Wou-Ki thought of this consequence, and even decided to go out, and said his idea, everyone has no better way for a while, you can't eat raw meat, right? It's not persuasion, it's not persuasion, and in the end they all sighed helplessly.
After Zhao Wouji explained, he changed into a bat shirt, picked up a military dagger and a bottle of solid oxygen, glanced at Lin Yu, who was still cultivating, and jumped off the underground river without hesitation, the underground river is seven or eight meters wide, five or six meters deep, the water is cold and piercing, and the water flow is very fast, but unfortunately the water is clear and visible.
Transporting the power to the limit, forming a layer of internal strength protection layer on the epidermis of the body, only to feel better, using both hands and feet, swimming forward quickly, like a swift swimming fish, it is ten meters away in an instant.
There was no need to find any creatures in the underground river, Zhao Wuji didn't dare to be careless, swam forward quickly, and soon found the connection between the underground river and the aboveground river, a hole of ten square meters, and quickly rowed away.
Maybe it was Zao Wou-Ki's good fate, maybe God felt that Zao Wou-Ki was unlucky enough and couldn't bear to torture him anymore, in short, the distance of nearly 100 meters was useless to find the terrible piranha, and it was useless to touch other animals, he swam quickly to the river on the ground, feeling that the momentum of the water was greater, Zao Wou-Ki borrowed the force on his feet, and his body swooped out of the water.
I saw that the outside world was still raining rain, and the gray sky was oppressive and heavy, if it weren't for the countless spider lightning bursting out from the black clouds a little farther away, bringing some light to the surroundings, otherwise I couldn't see anything.
The body in the void Zhao Wou-Ki confirmed the direction, the left foot kicked the right foot, the body borrowed strength, flew in one direction, and suddenly crossed a distance of nearly ten meters, after the body fell into the water, he carried the "incense elephant crossing the river" style in the Xingyi boxing, the center of gravity of the body moved up, and the feet quickly stepped on the water and tread the waves.
After practicing the martial arts to a certain extent, the body can tread the water and walk, the deeper the skill, the shallower the foot does not enter the water, when the Dharma crossed the river with a reed, it is not a myth, but the gravity of the body is all on the body, the body is as light as a feather, it is not impossible to step on the reeds along the river, the skill is poor, the body is not into the knees can also tread water early.
Of course, in addition to the skill, there is also an important condition for treading water, that is, the speed is very fast, so fast that the front foot does not land on the back foot to keep up, there is a water frog in the animal kingdom can also tread water, relying on speed.
Zao Wou-Ki disappeared into the river in an instant as if he had a light smoke, and after stepping on the land, he used his feet hard and his body easily jumped onto an ancient tree more than ten meters long.
Walking alone in the jungle without the slightest concern, Zao Wou-Ki took a general look at the direction, after determining the way to come, opened his hands, the bat shirt stretched, the feet forced, the body suddenly glided forward, both feet together, from time to time to click on the branch to borrow strength, and control the speed and power of gliding, the whole person is like a big bird, flying freely in the forest, Zao Wou-Ki feels particularly happy and comfortable.
How exciting it is to see people flying like birds, Zao Wou-Ki is becoming more and more familiar with the use of bat shirts, and the speed and distance of his body gliding are getting higher and higher, and sometimes he can glide twenty or thirty meters away with a swish of his feet in the trees.
Of course, Zao Wou-Ki's ability to use the bat shirt so brilliantly is mainly due to Zao Wou-ki's martial arts training body, and his coordination and strength are far higher than ordinary people, and the effect of using them is naturally higher than that of ordinary people.
Two or three days of the journey, Zao Wou-Ki took only two hours to complete, unfortunately, Zao Wou-Ki came to the last time to fight with the python by the waterhole and did not find the speedboat, everywhere the water level of the river rises.
In desperation, Zao Wou-Ki had no choice but to follow the river to find it, and to Zao Wou-ki's rejoicing, he saw the speedboat two or three miles downstream of the waterhole, and the river was blocked by two huge ancient trees, and the yacht had turned over, just between the two trees, and was swaying with the river waves.
Zao Wou-Ki quickly jumped onto an ancient tree, and turned the speedboat over, only to see that the spare fuel tank on the speedboat was still there, and it was locked on a circular hook of the speedboat by the iron chain, and the fuel tank was still intact and did not leak, Zhao Wou-Ki was overjoyed, and after breaking the big lock, he tore off the iron chain and lifted the fuel tank, and estimated that it was about thirty liters.
With gasoline to solve the fuel problem, Zao Wou-Ki happily wiped the rain from his face and hurried back, but this time there was a large fuel tank in his hand, although it was feasible according to the original way of traveling, but the speed was much slower, less than one-third of the original.
On the way, Zhao Wou-Ki had an idea, tied the fuel tank to his back with vines, and completely freed up his hands and feet, and the speed suddenly became faster, but it was only half of the original.
After more than four hours, Zao Wou-Ki finally returned to the exit along the original route, to Zao's surprise, the red tide had subsided a lot, the water level of the river had also dropped a lot, and the entrance to the snake cave on the mountainside had been exposed.
Since the thunderstorm came, everyone has been unlucky, there is nothing to be happy about, Zao Wou-Ki came to the entrance of the snake cave excitedly, the mud and stone have been taken away by the flood, revealing a pit, which is the location of the entrance.
Zao Wou-Ki found a branch the thickness of an arm from not far away, and used it as a tool to clean up the entrance, after the entrance of three or four meters was blown down by a bomb, the soil was not very tight, if it wasn't for the red tide on his back, I am afraid that he would have to be washed clean, and none of the people in the snake cave could survive, and he didn't have to face the impact of the flood directly with the red tide on his back, but spread over, and the strength was much smaller, and it could be regarded as destined in the dark.
Under Zao Wou-ki's miraculous skills, half an hour later, the entrance to the cave was finally opened, and the people inside got in touch, and everyone learned that Zao Wou-Ki came, not by the flood to break through the hole, a hanging heart completely let go, until the water level had dropped, Cheng Gang and Yuan Guoping two strong laborers took turns to help.
After the entrance to the cave was opened, everyone happily gathered, listening to Zao Wou-ki's simple account of what happened, Yuan Guoping stepped forward to help unlock the fuel tank, everyone saw the fuel tank, happy as if it was the New Year, everyone knew that this time everyone was finally saved.
Looking for firewood that can be burned, this kind of thing doesn't need Zao Wou-ki, Cheng Gang and Yuan Guoping can do it, everyone greets the hero and generally lets Zao Wou-Ki into the snake cave, Zao Wou-Ki glanced at Lin Yu, who was still immersed in the world of cultivation, and used his spiritual perception to investigate, and there was nothing wrong with it, and he secretly put his mind at ease.
After changing their clothes in a hurry, Cheng Gang and Yuan Guoping came in, picked up a branch, and everyone worked together to make the branch into a small piece of wood, poured gasoline, and a fire was finally lit, everyone shouted happily and laughed, the continuous thunderstorm almost made everyone lose the confidence to survive, and when they saw the fire, everyone seemed to see hope and see the future.
