Yellow River Craftsman

Chapter 168 River Eye
river eye? !
60 years of waiting? !
This is the second time I've heard the Lich mention these two words. What exactly is the River Eye?And those 60 years of waiting, what is the Lich waiting for?What exactly is the task they want to accomplish?And why did the Lich go back to Broken Dragon Cliff?Could it be that there really are some unknown secrets hidden in Duanlongya?

The river wind was blowing on my cheeks, it was a little cool, more and more questions entangled me like water plants, I suddenly didn't know what to do.

After several days of sailing, we are back in SMX territory.

Tomorrow is the NO.15 of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. The Lich seemed very excited, and went to the pier on a whim to buy some shochu and marinated vegetables and came back: "What time?"

I didn't refuse, and sat down opposite the Lich.

These days I live in the wind and sleep in the open, and I almost vomited after eating those dry food noodles, so I am not polite at the moment, I just picked up a bottle of shochu, poured myself a glass, and then threw off my arms and started eating.

"You look excited?" I glanced at the lich.

"Of course!" The Lich nodded, grinning and said, "A task that no one has completed for thousands of years will be completed by me tomorrow. How can I be so excited for words!"

"A task that has not been completed for thousands of years?" I looked at the Lich in surprise: "What task do you want to complete?"

"Tomorrow, July [-]th, you will know!" The Lich smiled at me strangely, with a sinister smile, which made me feel a chill in my bones.

The [-]th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar is a traditional Chinese ghost festival. It is said that on this day the gates of the underworld will be opened, and those ghosts in the underworld will come to the yang world through the gate of ghosts, so the [-]th day of the seventh month is the most cloudy day of the year. One day, people will burn some joss sticks and paper money to worship the dead souls on this day, and there are sacrificial activities all over the country.

The Lich chooses to act on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month. What exactly does he want to do?Could it be that there will be some powerful evil coming out of the Yellow River Ancient Road on this day?
My heart is uneasy.

In fact, my state of mind is very complicated now. On the one hand, I am worried about the coming of the Ghost Festival, and I am afraid that something unexpected will happen; .

Just in my uneasiness, Ghost Festival came quietly.

After [-] o'clock in the middle of the night, a cloudy wind blew up for no reason on the ancient road of the Yellow River. It seems that there are countless Yin Qi permeating the sky.

The whole day the sky was overcast and there was no sun.

Thick dark clouds piled up overhead, casting huge shadows on the river, a scene where the mountains were about to be shaken by the wind and rain.

On this day, the Lich seemed restless. He walked up and down the deck with his hands behind his back, looking at the distant river from time to time, and said to himself: "It's coming soon! It's coming soon!"

The day passed by inexplicably and groggyly.

In the evening, large black lead clouds gathered above the head, covering the sky, a dim scene.

The wind was blowing, the waves on the river rolled, and the iron boat we were in also shook.

Looking up at the sky, those black clouds change and disperse in the sky, turning into various strange patterns, like countless demons, ghosts and sprites floating in the sky.Later, I was surprised to see that the black clouds in the sky gradually turned into a pair of teeth and claws.The ferocious dragon, with the faint sound of thunder in the sky.

At this time, I saw the Lich kneeling down respectfully on the deck, kowtowing and bowing to the black cloud dragon in the sky, with a very pious demeanor.

I think the lich's behavior is very weird, but after thinking about it, it's nothing. Many people have this kind of worship behavior. Who knows what the lich believes in.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the black cloud dragon in the sky was tumbling crazily, and the wind was strong, setting off waves two or three meters high.

Immediately afterwards, pea-sized raindrops fell from the sky and hit the cabin with a thumping sound.

In an instant, a curtain of rain was pulled up between the sky and the earth. Looking from a distance, it seemed to see a huge waterfall rushing down from the nine heavens and pouring into the rolling Yellow River, which was very spectacular.

The sky is getting darker and the wind and rain are getting heavier. It seems that there are countless ghosts screaming and roaring between the sky and the earth. The thick Yin Qi envelopes the entire land of Shenzhou, and the panic is like the end of the world.

I hid in the cabin to avoid the rain, only to find that the Lich stood motionless on the bow of the boat, like a wooden stake, with his hands behind his back, overlooking the turbulent river, the black robe on his body was flapping, Fly like a flag.The heavy rain splashed down on his head, drenching him completely, but he didn't react at all.

"Madman!" I cursed in my heart, and I didn't bother to pay attention to him. No one can guess his mind for a mentally abnormal person like a lich.

I don't know how long it took before I heard a crackling sound, and a shocking red lightning, like a flying python, shuttled down from the black cloud waves, splitting countless branches in the air.From a distance, it looks like a huge luminous claw, inserted backwards into the Yellow River.

At this moment, the world seemed to tremble.

This thunder was so violent that it made me jump up and down, and my heart was jumping non-stop.

At this moment, the lich standing at the bow suddenly yelled, his voice full of incomparable excitement: "It has appeared! The eye of the river has appeared! Wahaha, the eye of the river has finally appeared!"

River eye appeared? !

I was stunned, gritted my teeth, and shot out of the cabin like an arrow. I wanted to see what the "river eye" the lich was talking about.

When I rushed to the deck, I was stunned as if struck by lightning, and ran past a thousand grass mud horses whistling in my heart.

I am a god!

So... is that the legendary... river eye?

I saw a terrifying black vortex appeared on the surface of the river where the lightning had just fallen.The black vortex was spinning rapidly, like a black hole that was constantly growing, devouring everything around it.The rushing river flowed back into the black hole like a waterfall, making a loud noise.But in the blink of an eye, the diameter of the black vortex has exceeded 50 meters. If viewed from the sky, it looks like a huge black eyeball spinning rapidly on the ancient Yellow River road.

Such a shocking scene, originally only appeared in Hollywood science fiction blockbusters in the United States, but I didn't expect it to be so close now.

Just when I was fascinated, something even weirder happened.

I saw a strong black evil spirit, swirling from the center of the vortex like a fountain and rushing towards the nine-day sky.The black evil spirit is visible to the naked eye, and from a distance, it looks like a huge black pillar standing between the sky and the earth.With the continuous rotation of the black evil spirit, the original black giant pillar gradually turned into a black dragon shadow hovering and flying, and even the shape of the dragon head and dragon claws can be clearly seen, as if there are countless ghosts around. roar.

Seeing such a strange and spectacular scene, my brain went blank and I almost forgot to breathe.

The Lich turned his head, his pupils sparkled, and he yelled at me: "Tuobagu, set sail! Hurry up!"

"Oh!" I came back to my senses, the black vortex was so attractive that the surrounding water was sucked in. If we don't leave by boat, we will probably be sucked into the vortex, and then we will be doomed .

I hurried into the cockpit and started the engine.

Chu Chu Chu!
The engine roared, but it was still difficult to drive the tin boat out against the current.

"Damn it! Why isn't this boat moving?" the Lich shouted anxiously to me.

"I have already increased the horsepower to the maximum, and the attraction of the vortex is too great, we can't rush out..." Before I finished speaking, I was interrupted by the Lich's roar: "You fucking idiot! Tell you to leave here by boat? I'll let you sail over to the eye of the river!" The Lich pointed at the terrifying black vortex with a hideous expression on his face.

what? !

Are you fucking crazy? !
I couldn't help cursing, such a terrible vortex, our iron boat sailed past, I'm afraid it would be smashed to pieces in an instant, is there something wrong with the lich's brain?Courting death is not the way to die!

"I told you to drive over there and you just drive over there, hurry up, the dragon shadow is about to disappear!" the Lich yelled at me eagerly.

"Is this the fucking rhythm of death? I'm not afraid of death, but I can't let you die. If you die, who will give the villagers of Hezi Village the antidote?" I bit my lip, not understanding the lunatic Lich. What is thinking in my heart.

The Lich said coldly: "I won't die, will I make fun of my life? If you don't drive over immediately, I still won't give those villagers the antidote, you can figure it out yourself!"

my day!

Facing the threat of the Lich and the thousands of lives in Hezi Village, I once again chose to compromise.

Nima, just die!
I would like to see what the bastard lich is trying to do!
I can't take care of that much anymore, go ahead!

I quickly turned the rudder, and the iron boat turned the bow with difficulty on the river, and rushed towards the rotating river eye.

I turned on the horsepower to the maximum, coupled with the suction of the river eye, the iron boat rode the wind and waves, and went fast. The splashing waves were more than three meters high, and the water splashed everywhere, and all fell on the deck.

My mind was blank, no fear, no tension, I stared at the dragon shadow flying on the water, and I didn't know what kind of mental state I was in at this moment.

Very white.

It's really white.

It seems like I have thought a lot, but it seems that I have not thought about anything.

Getting closer and closer to the eye of the river, the roar of the water is deafening, it is like the entrance of hell, and now I am sliding towards the entrance of hell step by step.
