Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 885 The Unsettled River
Everyone didn't complain about the extra Dabai. On the contrary, since Dabai and Su Bai have such a good relationship, Dabai is also on their side when they are in danger. Moreover, the strange beast's ability to predict danger is often incomprehensible. Above human beings, even warriors in the realm of five qi are hard to compare with. With Dabai, they may be able to avoid many dangers.

After setting off on the road the next day, not long after walking, a small river suddenly appeared in front of everyone. In Taixuan Mountain, there are lush trees and mountains can be seen everywhere, but there are not many rivers. What does the animal drink?
It's just that the small river appeared a little suddenly, or a little randomly. It doesn't look like there are rivers and streams around, so why is there a small river with a width of three to five meters for no reason?It seemed to be raining heavily, caused by mountain torrents, but there was no heavy rain in Taixuan Mountain in the past two days, right?

Of course, such a small river can't stop everyone's way, so they just jumped over it casually. Dongfang Zhiguang glanced at the faces of everyone, shook his head and smiled and said, "Why, you don't think there is a problem with this river, do you? That's true. There are some shadows of a cup bow and a snake."

Sima Xiangxun's expression was a bit dignified, and he said, "It's hard to say, can you feel the danger from the rattan before?"

Dongfang Zhiguang frowned, and said, "This is different, at least it was still a cane before, but this is just a river."

Su Bai understood what the other party said, rattan is a plant, no matter how you say it is a living thing, it is a living thing, but the river is indeed a dead thing, the two are really different.

Of course Sima Xiangxun also understood, nodded and said: "Brother Dongfang is right, I just think we should be more careful."

"Haha! Okay, then you guys help me to watch, I'll go first." Dongfang Zhiguang laughed, and then jumped over the small river. There was no accident in the middle, which made everyone relieved, after all, there was no accident. That's the best.

Then everyone jumped up one after another, Dabai also jumped over the small river with a tiger leap, Sima Xiangxun smiled and shook his head and said: "It seems that I really made a fuss, let's go on."

Everyone naturally had no opinion, and they didn't blame him for making a fuss. After all, in the depths of Taixuan Mountain, one can never be too careful, but at this moment, Liu Xiyuan suddenly paused and said, "Hold on, since we encountered this Xiaohe, why don't you refill the water nearby."

Everyone was startled, but they didn't think too much about it, and they didn't stop it. After all, no matter how you look at it, this small river doesn't seem to be a problem.

I saw Liu Xiyuan took a water bag, went to the side of the river, squatted down to fetch water, but just as he put the water bag into the water, his face changed drastically, he threw the water bag into the water, and then slammed back He slid out, and at the same time his right hand shook violently, instantly shattering his entire sleeve.

"what happened?"

Liu Xiyuan's sudden action made everyone tense up, as if they were facing an enemy, but they couldn't figure out what happened, after all, they didn't perceive the source of danger.

Liu Xiyuan's face was a little pale, but he didn't look injured, he shook his head slowly and said: "I'm fine, but we may not be able to get the water from this river."

Dongfang Zhiguang frowned and said, "Brother Liu, what do you mean? Is there really something wrong with this small river?"

"That's right. Let's take a closer look." Liu Xiyuan nodded, and walked to Xiaohe first.

Others also walked over, about one or two meters away from the river bank, but they still didn't find any problems. Instead, they felt that the small river was so clear that even the plants, stones and even the soil at the bottom of the river could be seen clearly. , without any source of danger, just flowing slowly.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Yue Qianqiu suddenly said in a deep voice: "Something is wrong, the water bag that Brother Liu just threw into the water is gone!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, only to realize that there was nothing in the water. Yes, this small river is indeed flowing, but the flow rate is actually very slow. After the water bag is filled with water, it should sink to the bottom, and it shouldn't be so fast. disappeared.

The Taoist also said: "Yes, and have you noticed that there is not a single fish in this river, not to mention fish, there are not even shrimps and snails, which is obviously unreasonable."

Now everyone felt that something was wrong. It was the same sentence. The flow of this river is so slow, it is definitely suitable for fish and shrimps to survive, but there is nothing in this river. There is a problem with the clarity of this river!

"Brother Liu, what did you see just now?" Sima Xiangxun asked Liu Xiyuan.

Liu Xiyuan shook his head slowly, looking at his expression, it seemed difficult to explain, after a moment of silence, he suddenly picked up a branch from the ground, and then plunged into the water from a distance, everyone didn't understand his actions, but they could see Seeing that Liu Xiyuan was staring at the contact surface between the branches and the water without blinking, he didn't ask any more questions, and looked at the water carefully.

Then a strange scene happened in front of everyone. The river water seemed to have become a living thing, and it flowed quickly along the branches. It was said that the flow was too much. It is more appropriate to say that penetration.

But no matter what it is, this scene is too weird. It is common sense that water flows to low places, and it has never changed. flow!

Seeing that the water was about to reach Liu Xiyuan's right hand holding the branch, although Liu Xiyuan didn't know what was going on, he didn't want the weird water to touch him, so he threw the branch to the distance.

"This water is weird!"

Dongfang Zhiguang said in a deep voice, of course, what he said is also nonsense, now everyone knows that the water is weird, but what is the weirdness of the water?This is what people need to figure out.

But no one could answer this question. After a while, Liu Xiyuan said: "When I put my hand into the water, I suddenly felt a pain like a needle prick. I threw it away, but because there was still water in my hand, the pain was still there. I thought it was some invisible monster, so I shook it hard with Yuanli. Sure enough, the pain disappeared, but I didn’t expect that there was no pain in my hand either. There is a little trace of water, it's like... It's like this water that caused me pain, and this water is really like a living thing!"

This remark made everyone shudder. Dongfang Zhiguang said it was just water and a dead thing before, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon, and the water really became a living thing!

Everyone looked at Liu Xiyuan's hand, and found that the other's old skin was slightly red, but there was nothing serious. It seemed that the other party responded in a timely manner, and dealt with the danger in time when he was not really hurt. .

Everyone stared at the river for a while, but they still didn't find any problem. Finally, Sima Xiangxun sighed: "Forget it, since there is a problem with this river, then we don't need to fetch water here, let's go!"

The others nodded, took two steps back, and then turned around to leave. Su Bai lagged behind, his eyes swept across the water surface with a hint of thought, and he had some opinions of his own on the problems in the water .

Su Bai thinks that the problem is not the water in the river, but the microorganisms in the water. As for what kind of microorganisms, Su Bai is not sure, he only knows that the microorganisms are small in size, and should be almost transparent, with strong decomposition or It is the ability to devour. Of course, it seems that this ability should only work on animals.

When Liu Xiyuan was fetching water before, the microbes in the water were attacking him, but Liu Xiyuan responded in time, he shook it with Yuan force, and it was actually those microbes that flew away.

And because the water bag is made of animal skin, it was quickly dissolved by these microorganisms.

As for later Liu Xiyuan poked the branch into the water and saw that the water was flowing to a higher place, it wasn't actually water, but the microorganisms in the water were moving along the branches. If Liu Xiyuan didn't throw away the branches, the microorganisms would be Going to attack him again.

Su Bai felt that his train of thought should be right, but he didn't tell everyone. It wasn't because he had any bad intentions, but because he didn't think it was necessary, or it was more troublesome to explain.

After all, this world is not aware of the existence of microorganisms. No matter how powerful a martial arts practitioner is, no matter how strong his perception ability is, there is still a big gap compared with a microscope. If Su Bai explained microorganisms to them for a long time, it would be a bit redundant , if people ask him how he knows these things, it will be even more difficult for him to explain, after all, it seems that it is not easy to push it to his cheap master Wang Buyi.

So Su Bai simply didn't talk about it. Anyway, as long as people don't get close to this small river, there seems to be no problem, because from the current point of view, the microorganisms in this water can't leave this small river, so they can't constitute a problem for everyone. Threat, that being the case, what does it matter if there is a problem with the water or something dangerous in the water?

"What are you looking at, kid Su!" The wanderer in front couldn't help shouting seeing that Su Bai didn't keep up, but stared at the river in a daze.

Only then did Su Bai come back to his senses, he rode up on Dabai, and the Taoist said with a half-smile, "Su Xiaoyou, did you find something?"

As soon as he said this, everyone became interested and looked at Su Bai one after another.

Su Bai smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "I just can't figure it out, so I'm lost in thought. I've never even heard of such a weird river."

This is of course a lie, since he made up his mind not to tell the truth, of course he can't tell the truth, but what makes him a little depressed is, why do you think he will see the problem?He doesn't know everything!Besides, you are the master of five qi, don't you need to be so "shameless to ask"?What about your demeanor!
