Chapter 396: The Hidden Lady Falls into the Water
Although Zhao Yan smiled and comforted Yan Yuru and Yinniang, in fact, he was a little worried in his heart, according to the empty description, this dark river runs through the entire underground palace, and there is more than one entrance, which makes Zhao Yan worry that if the people of the underground palace are waiting for him at the entrance in front, it will be terrible.
But what Zhao Yan didn't expect was that his worries never appeared, along the way he did find a few entrances to the dark river, but no one entered, which made Zhao Yan also a little puzzled, it is said that after entering the dark river, the people in the underground palace will definitely find a way to intercept it, but now there is no one, this situation is not normal.
However, although there were doubts in his heart, Zhao Yan's subordinates did not stop, and even rowed harder, hoping to enter the huge underground river outside as soon as possible, although it was not absolutely safe to get there, but it was safer than the current dark river like a rat hole.
"Oh no, you guys hold on!" But at this moment, Zhao Yan suddenly shouted loudly, and at the same time threw away the boat pulp and grabbed the side of the boat with both hands, Yan Yuru and Yinniang sat facing Zhao Yan, not knowing what was going on, but they all reflexively grabbed the side of the ship.
"Phew!" Yan Yuru and Yin Niang only felt a violent tremor in the ship, and then a strong force came, making the three people on the boat unstable, Zhao Yan even plunged into Yan Yuru's arms, and the two rolled together at once, but fortunately, the two were entangled so that they were not thrown out.
"Yikes! Plop~" Just when Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru fell into the boat, they heard a scream from Yin Niang, and then there was a sound of a heavy object falling into the water, which made Yan Yuru scream, and when she turned over and sat up, she found that Yin Niang had fallen into the dark river. Now it is a painful struggle in the rushing waters.
"Hidden Niang!" When Yan Yuru saw this, she stood up and was about to jump into the river, but she was hugged by Zhao Yan and persuaded loudly: "Don't be impulsive." The river is so turbulent, no matter how good the water is, it is useless. Let's find a rope and throw it down, maybe we can pull the hidden lady up! ”
What Zhao Yan said is also the truth, it should not be far from the exit of the dark river, but the river is extremely turbulent, just now Zhao Yan only cared about rowing, although the bow of the boat nodded the torch, but it could not illuminate the river surface at all, but just now a big reef suddenly appeared on the river surface. Almost half of the river was blocked, which made Zhao Yan have no time to turn the bow of the boat, and finally the side of the boat hit the big rock, and what happened just now happened. And with the current speed of the water, if Yan Yuru jumps down to save people, she is likely to be washed out far away like Yinniang.
Although Yan Yuru was anxious to rescue Yin Niang, she also knew that it would be useless for her to jump down, just in the blink of an eye, Yin Niang had already been rushed out a few feet away, and it was useless in this kind of fear rapids, no matter how good the water was. What's more, she doesn't know how to swim at all.
Zhao Yan saw that Yan Yuru had calmed down at this time, and immediately turned around and rummaged around the boat, and soon found a bundle of thick hemp rope. It's just that Yinniang was rushed out farther away at this time, and I don't know if the rope is enough. But now he can't take care of this, Zhao Yan handed the rope to Yan Yuru, and then threw the rope to Yinniang with all his might.
Yinniang knows some water, so she can hold on to such a turbulent water for so long without sinking, but at this time she is about to be unable to hold on, when she sees Zhao Yan on the boat throwing the rope to herself, Yinniang's eyes also burst out with a survival **, but what quickly disappointed her. The rope was thrown over, but it fell on the surface of the river more than a foot away from her. If it's on a calm river, she can swim across. But in such a turbulent current, Yinniang could only watch the rope get farther and farther away from her.
"Yin Niang~" Seeing that the rope couldn't reach Yin Niang, Yan Yuru on the boat immediately screamed, although she knew that she was dead, she still wanted to jump into the water again, but she was hugged by Zhao Yan, and she could only watch Yin Niang being swept away by the current, which made her finally let out a heart-rending cry.
"Yuru, now is not the time to cry, and Yinniang is just washed away by the water, and she will not necessarily die, in front of her is the wide underground river, where the water flow is gentle, maybe Yinniang can still be saved!" Zhao Yan hugged Yan Yuru and persuaded loudly, in fact, he also knew that Yin Niang was nine deaths this time, but now he can only say it on the bright side.
When Yan Yuru heard Zhao Yan's words, it was like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw, and he hurriedly said at the moment: "Yes, let's row quickly, maybe we can save Yinniang." ”
At that moment, Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru immediately stepped up rowing, and at this time, the water in the dark river was also more turbulent, and there might also be reefs hidden in the river.
It can be regarded as Zhao Yan's luck, except for the big reef just now, they have not encountered other obstacles, and Zhao Yan and they paddled a few times, and suddenly felt a light under their feet, and then even the people and the boat fell down suddenly, at this time Zhao Yan suddenly found out by the light of the fire that they had already gone out of the dark river, but the exit of the dark river had a big drop, like a waterfall, they just fell from the top of the waterfall.
"Huh~" With a loud bang, Zhao Yan and the boat they were in fell to the water, fortunately Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru had been thrown out, otherwise if they fell into the boat, I am afraid that both of them would be injured. But even so, Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru were not comfortable, after the two fell from the sky, they only felt cold all over, and then fell into the cold river water.
After Zhao Yan fell into the water, he immediately felt that the river water was cold and biting, and his whole body trembled, fortunately, there were no cramps in his hands and feet, and he struggled to swim at the moment, and his swimming skills were not very good, but now there is no problem with saving his life.
"Save ...... Help~" At this moment, Zhao Yan heard Yan Yuru's cry for help, and immediately followed the sound, but with the help of the light from nowhere, it could be seen that Yan Yuru was struggling desperately on the water, which made Zhao Yan secretly scream badly, he saw Yan Yuru so desperately trying to save Yinniang, and thought that she knew how to be watery, but now it seems that she was wrong.
Saving people is important, Zhao Yan didn't dare to delay, and swam behind Yan Yuru in a very ugly swimming posture at the moment, and then according to the water rescue methods learned in later generations, he stretched out his arm to hug her from behind Yan Yuru. However, this kind of action to save people looks simple, but it is not so easy in practice, because Yan Yuru has choked on water at this time, and her mind is a little unclear, when Zhao Yan just approached her, she immediately struggled, and as a result, Zhao Yan also drank a few mouthfuls of cold river water, and finally finally hugged her, and then slowly dragged her to swim towards the boat.
The boat is very strong, and the waterfall is only more than a zhang high, so it did not suffer any damage when it fell, Zhao Yan quickly put Yan Yuru on the boat, and then he also turned over on the boat, but at this time he found a bad situation, that is, Yan Yuru actually fell into a coma.
Reached out and touched Yan Yuru's nose, but found that she was no longer breathing, but a few faint pulses could still be felt on her slender neck, which made Zhao Yan finally breathe a sigh of relief, and said to the unconscious Yan Yuru at the moment: "It's urgent, I'm offended!" ”
Zhao Yan said and bent down and began to help Yan Yuru do artificial respiration, which was also helpless, but when Zhao Yan touched Yan Yuru's cold lips, his heart couldn't help but flutter, but he quickly regained his mind and began to do artificial respiration seriously.
"Cough~" In less than a minute, Yan Yuru suddenly coughed violently, and at the same time squirted out the water she had drunk before, but unfortunately, Zhao Yan was using her mouth to cross the air, and she was sprayed right at once. Don't think that the beauty is fragrant all over her body, and the river water mixed with gastric juice actually tastes bad, not to mention that it sprayed into Zhao Yan's throat all at once, and almost choked him to death.
"Right...... You...... What are you doing? Yan Yuru, who woke up, instinctively wanted to apologize, but she quickly sped up Zhao Yan's lips that Zhao Yan had just kissed her, which made her immediately ask vigilantly, and her gaze at Zhao Yan was also a little suspicious.
"Ahem~, I don't have time to explain in detail, you choked on water and fell into a coma just now, I can only use artificial respiration to save you, let's hurry up and look around now, maybe we can find Yinniang!" Zhao Yan coughed a few times before he spoke, artificial respiration is indeed not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences, so he can only use Yin Niang's matter to divert Yan Yuru's attention.
Sure enough, as soon as Yin Niang was mentioned, Yan Yuru immediately put aside the "light" things that she might have been subjected to just now, and bent down to crawl on the side of the boat to look around, hoping to find the traces of Yin Niang, but what disappointed her was that although there was some light around, it was very dim, and the water was also pitch black, even if someone couldn't see it, not to mention that Yin Niang was likely to sink to the bottom.
Zhao Yan had long known that there was little chance of finding Yinniang, but he was also looking around at the surrounding situation, with the help of the dim light from nowhere, he found that the place where he fell was a semi-circular small lake, and the dark river above his head was constantly pouring downward, making this small lake also splashing, and outside the small lake was the wide underground river, even with the help of light, he couldn't see the other side at a glance, and Yinniang was likely to be washed into the underground river, if this was the case, the chance of them finding Yinniang was very small.
"Huh? No, this is underground, where does the surrounding light come from? Zhao Yan suddenly found a problem at this time, from falling into the water to waking up Yan Yuru just now, he didn't have time to pay attention to the surrounding environment at all, and it was not until then that he realized that the light around him was a little abnormal.
