Shao Xuan knew that the river was very big, but he didn't know it would be so big.

The three methods of sailing, manual paddling, and cha cha chak pulling the boat alternately. Except for a short rest period, the canoe has been running.

According to the sun and the double moon at night, Shao Xuan has been judging the direction and trying to make the canoe drive in a straight line. Although he encountered a lot of trouble on the way, he also encountered a group of crazy fish fighting on the way, so he had to bypass the long road. It's not that I haven't seen the head yet.

"Fifteen days have passed since today." Shao Xuan said to Chacha, who was resting next to him, looking at the water that still had no end in front of him.

The resting man chirped in response, weak and weak. In addition to the excitement and novelty at the beginning, the next thing was that countless things happened one after another that made him frightened, and he was so scared that he lost a lot of bird feathers recently. .

Shao Xuan was also tired, and he didn't have a good rest for 15 consecutive days. Although his resilience was very strong, he couldn't bear the long-term fatigue. Moreover, what Shao Xuan was most worried about now was that if he went further, he would There will be no time to return. After all, according to the original plan, at most fifteen days, if you can't find the side, you will go back. However, I still feel that we should move forward.

"Chat, you say, is there a continent ahead?" Shao Xuan kicked the bird next to him. The river was beyond his imagination. If he continued to walk down, he would believe it could enter the sea.

Cha Cha, who was combing his feathers with his head down, raised his head in response, and then looked forward. It can feel the breath of the continent ahead, but it doesn't know how far it is.

Shao Xuan actually felt that way too. He always felt that if he went further, he would reach the other side of the river. However, that would be too risky. Even if it is about to reach the other side, what if the river has fallen sharply and cannot see the top?

how to choose?

Keep going. Or go back?

Shao Xuan closed his eyes and felt the totem in his mind.

The totem flame in my mind rolled up. The direction in which the flames fluttered was forward, and it was surging violently.

Opening his eyes, Shao Xuan adjusted the sails, "Keep going."

"噍—" Cha Cha replied weakly. It began to miss the life of the tribe, but when it thought about the new land that Shao Xuan said, it cheered up again.

so. After walking for another eight days, Shao Xuan felt the totem flames in his mind surging more and more violently, but at the same time, the flow of the river in the river was also faster. Shao Xuan has seen such a situation before,

When this happens, the river level will drop sharply. When I was in the tribe, maybe today I can see a few stones that were originally in the water exposed on the river bank, but the next day, I will see a muddy steep slope.

Chacha is flying in the sky. Pull the boat.

When Shao Xuan was thinking about it, the chacha in the air shouted.

Shao Xuan suddenly looked at the sky. A cry like cha cha means that there is something ahead. Possibly, the riverbank.

Chacha landed, Shao Xuan jumped on the back of the eagle, and then let Chacha take it to the air to take a look.

It's not easy to see when in the canoe, but in the air, you can see a very thin black line on the distant border that you won't notice if you're not careful.

Chacha's claws are still holding the rope, and it is impossible to throw a canoe and fly into the sky alone. In that case, the canoe would be swept away by the fast-flowing river.

Even if you can't fly to a higher altitude to observe. Shao Xuan was excited enough.

Drifting on the river for more than 20 days, my heart trembled. If he couldn't see the edge again, Shao Xuan really lost his confidence. Even if the totem flame was surging violently, he would still be dead if he couldn't reach the shore before the river dropped sharply.

Now that I see the boundary line, the pressure in my heart has dropped sharply. I feel that the fatigue brought by these more than 20 days has dissipated a lot and is much more relaxed.

"Okay, twitter, it's almost there! Work harder!"

Shao Xuan returned to the boat and continued to pull.

The flow rate of the river is getting faster and faster, and there are fewer piranhas in the water. I don't know if it is the reason for the change of the river or something else. For at least the past two days, Shao Xuan did not encounter other threats from the fish in the river, but the wind, wind direction, and the speed of the river did not make the boat move fast.

The "black line" on the border became more and more obvious. Looking at the sky, Shao Xuan hoped to arrive before sunset. There are too many unknown variables at night.

When he was getting closer to the river bank, Shao Xuan realized that the river bank looked like a mountain above the river, because the river had dropped too much.

Fortunately, although it feels like sailing under the abyss now, it is at the edge after all.

In the new place, Shao Xuan suddenly felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

The bank of the river, similar to that of the tribe, was a steep slope near the bank.

However, not far away, there is still water flowing down. There should be a tributary, and the water flowing out of it joins the big river, but now that the river surface is falling, the water there flows directly down the steep slope.

The closer to the shore, the stronger the wind. The wind carried a bit of fishy odor and rotten smell.

Shao Xuan looked at the height of the shore and the muddy steep slopes on the shore, thinking that the canoe can no longer be docked.

After more than 20 days of sailing, although a very strong and corrosion-resistant tree was used, it was collided and bitten by big fish during the sailing, leaving many criss-cross marks, and a hole was broken at the bottom. Shao Xuan blocked the thing. This canoe has accomplished its mission.

Shao Xuan packed the rest of the canoe with all the things he needed to carry on his back. After Chacha landed, he jumped on Chacha's back and flew to the river bank one person and one eagle.

The damaged canoe that no eagle could continue to pull, drifted downstream along with the fast-flowing river, and soon only a small shadow remained, and then disappeared from Shao Xuan's field of vision.

The wind became stronger, and there was no definite direction. Several times, the chacha was almost thrown into the mud on the side.

"Come on, man! Work harder!" Shao Xuan grabbed the eagle's body tightly and said loudly.

Chacha flapped his wings vigorously and flew upwards.

While flying, Shao Xuan suddenly said: "Wait, go over there and see!"

Although he didn't understand why Shao Xuan wanted to go there, Chacha turned around and flew towards the place Shao Xuan pointed.

Soon, Shao Xuan saw a figure stuck in the mud, entangled in algae, and being dragged down.

"Help... life!" The man was still shouting, his voice was a little hoarse, and he had been shouting for a while, but no one had come, and he didn't seem to have much energy left, so he had to breathe a few times.

The man was not very old when he heard the voice, and his body was covered in mud, and nearly two-thirds of his entire body had been torn down, and there were still water plants sticking out of the mud, entangling him.

Chacha is not easy to get close to that side, so Shao Xuan asked Chacha to grab the straw rope, while he tied the other end of the straw rope and jumped down.

"Stretch out your hand!" Shao Xuan said.

Seeing Shao Xuan jumping off the back of the eagle, the other party was still stunned, but he quickly pulled his arms out of the mud.

Shao Xuan grabbed his arms and pulled them up.

The water plants were wrapped too tightly, and if they were forced to pull up like this, they would probably break the person's arm.

Shao Xuan held out a hand, let Zhacha go down a little further, took out a stone knife, and quickly cut the water grass sticking out of the mud.

When Shao Xuan pulled the man up, the man stuck in the mud also concentrated his last strength, trying to break free from the grass that was still tied to his legs.

Shao Xuan found that although this person's face was full of mud, he couldn't see clearly, but in those eyes, the irises were yellow-brown, and the pupils were erect, like a blade, giving people a fierce and cold and ruthless feeling.

I don't know which tribe this is from, Shao Xuan thought.

Before leaving, Shao Xuan went to Wu's place to receive training, and read almost all the Tibetan scrolls at Wu's place. Now that this person in front of him, Shao Xuan has learned too little information, and for the time being he can't compare this person with Gu. The record on the volume is the same as the number above.

When the people were finally pulled out of the mud bit by bit, Cha Cha began to fly up quickly.

When I finally flew up, my feet stepped on the ground again, and my heart suddenly felt a sense of fulfillment. This was the real ground, not the swaying river surface.

The feeling of being rooted and implemented is indeed more stable.

Cha Cha also stood on the ground full of green grass and stepped on it alternately.

As for the person who was rescued by Shao Xuan, it seemed that he was just an underage child, but he was very vigilant towards Shao Xuan, even if Shao Xuan saved his life just now.

The other party didn't say anything, and Shao Xuan didn't ask. After he calmed down, he began to pay attention to his surroundings.

There are traces of human activities around, not many, but some can be seen. There are also mountains in the distance, and most of this area is muddy, with many potholes and water, and the natural concave ground forms pools of different sizes. In addition, Shao Xuan is still on some stones by the pool, look. To the marks of claws and teeth gnawing. It wasn't made by humans...

In the water?

However, Shao Xuan did not feel the danger from these pools, neither did Chacha. If it is not that the creatures in the water are hiding too well, there are no dangerous animals in the water at this moment.

The person who was rescued by Shao Xuan lay quietly on the ground next to him, panting. Although he didn't speak, he kept glancing at Shao Xuan and Chacha next to him.

Finally, the boy couldn't take it anymore.

"Who are you? Why did you appear in our tribe?" the other party asked.

"Your tribe? Which tribe are you from?" Shao Xuan asked. Seeing the other party, he was still very wary and said, "My eagle and I came from a long distance by boat, but the river level fell too fast. We hurried ashore. The boat was washed away just now, and I don't know how far it was."

"How long have you been in the river?" The other party didn't believe Shao Xuan's words and looked at Shao Xuan suspiciously. It seemed that Shao Xuan didn't even know his tribe was very puzzled.

"It's been more than 20 days." Shao Xuan said.

The other party opened his eyes wide, and in those yellow-brown eyes, the pupils were still shrunk. (To be continued)
