Chapter 67 Undercurrent
Chapter 67 Undercurrent
Because of the beast's cooperation, the three soon arrived at the lake where Qiqi was going.A small lake, near the edge of the lake is a circle of light yellow fine sand, on the side of the forest is a flat sandy land, on the side of the mountain is a cliff, covered by lush vegetation, last time they were It fell from there.
There are many lakes with sandy land beside the lake. Before falling into the water, Qiqi also saw the yellow sandy land, but after falling into the water, the meaning of this yellowish sandy land is not just sandy land.There are also salt fruits by the lake, which are only found in this area.Those trees that bear salt fruit, except that it bears white fruit regardless of the season, are actually very similar to a kind of evergreen tree in the forest that does not bloom or bear fruit.Qi Qi always thought that this tree was a variant of that tree when he first saw it, but now he knows that the so-called fruit it bears is nothing but salt crystals that are naturally excreted from the body after being wrapped in the tree's cytoplasm after excess salt.Being able to survive in strong saline-alkaline areas, and having such a salt-discharging feature, it has to be said that it provides convenience for Qi Qi, who can’t dry salt, and the source of all these conveniences, the lake that created all of this, behind it There are only a few hidden secrets.
Get off the back of the beast.Qi Qi looked around the lake, and finally walked to the sand by the lake in silence, and kneaded a handful of sand.
The lake can be seen at a glance, a complete irregular circle, it is indeed an inner lake.The sand in my hand has never been noticed in the past, but now I pay attention to it carefully, and it gives Qi Qi a feeling from the rare sand, whether it is the feeling of stepping on it or the feeling of twisting in the hand, it is like a foot Yellow sand on what used to be a beach.
Leaving the sand behind, I scooped up some water from the nearest lake and tasted it.
freshwater?He frowned suspiciously.The last time I fell into the water, I choked on the harsh taste of the lake water in my mouth after sinking into the deep water area. I remember clearly that it was salty.
Standing up in disbelief, Qiqi changed several places, but the feeling after trying was the same.
Behind him, the beast, who was worried about Qi Qi's safety, followed Qi Qi seriously, following every step, and Qi Qi's meaningless actions had no doubts at all.And Mu Sha, who has been doing nothing after collecting the dishes, is not so peaceful. Qi Qi's strange behavior made him very curious!
What's wrong with this water?Mu Sha imitated Qi Qi curiously, and took a handful of water from the lake to taste.
Isn't it just ordinary water, what's so strange?Mu Sha, who couldn't understand Qi Qi's actions even more, simply did nothing, and just looked at what Qi Qi would do next.
"Still light?"
After changing many places and unsuccessfully trying many times, Qi Qi couldn't help but speak out in doubt.
Hearing this doubt, the beast who had fallen into the water with Qi Qi finally showed surprise, and looked curiously at the water in Qi Qi's hand.He fell into the water with Qi Qi, but he clearly remembered that the water was salty!
Never fell into the lake, nor saw the crystals covered with Qi Qi and his clothes after drying, Mu Sha still looked at Qi Qi puzzled and curious, and Qi Qi who he had been watching seemed to finally give up trying to stand up. He got up, said something to the person who had been following him, and then the two wanted to walk towards him.
Huh?Is there finally something he can help with?Mu Sha's heart was faintly excited, but he didn't want to, Qi Qi was the only one who came to him, and the beast who was with him jumped into the dense forest and disappeared after putting Qi Qi beside him.This is still nothing to do with him!
It can be said that Musha's depression was already visible, probably because his resentment was too strong, and Qi Qi who stayed by his side seemed to be infected, and turned around to explain the whereabouts of the beast to him.
"I asked the beast to find the vines. Let's wait here for a while. There usually don't seem to be any wild beasts here!"
At first I thought Qi Qi was infected, but he was actually just asking for news.
"Well. I don't know why, almost no animals come here, and the trees are not as lush as other places in the forest, probably because of this..."
People who have no one to comfort them become weak when they speak, but when Qi Qi heard this, his eyes twinkled and he fell silent.
"Ziqi, are these enough?"
While both of them were silent, the beast who went out to find the rattan came back very efficiently and quickly.
Qi Qi heard the sound, and from a distance, he saw the beast chasing back with a large pile of vines.Rough scruples, these are probably enough?Ziqi thought uncertainly.
"Are you sure this is the strongest?"
Pulled a part of the rattan, and pulled it vigorously to confirm the stiffness of the rattan.
"This is the strongest one. Male orcs can easily tear it off." The beast stood beside Qi Qi holding a pile of rattan, answering Qi Qi's question obediently.And Mu Sha, who didn't answer, nodded frequently after hearing this, staring at the pile of vines greedily, forgetting what depression is.
With so many twisted tree vines, it can be used for a long time to bind and fix.Mu Sha dragged back the tree vines that had suddenly lost his sight, and continued to salivate at the pile, almost barely drooling.While he was in a daze, Qi Qi had already tied one end of the cane to himself, and looked at the beast.The two began yet another face-off that was decided.
"I want to go into the water." After the beast came back with these vines in his arms, Qi Qi took the time to say the words that made the beast almost lose all the vines in his hand, but it was a pity that he was thrown away by Musha just as he raised his hand. Pulled back.
Qi Qi lowered his eyes and touched the vines around his waist.
"The vines are very strong and tied to my body. I believe you will be able to pull me out of the water as soon as I encounter danger."
But the water is not safe!They were almost drowned last time!The beast didn't speak, but just stared at Qi Qi and roared with his eyes.
Orcs have lived away from water for a long time, and they don’t know how to swim. The fear of water comes from instinct. You can let him near the water, but if you want to go into the water, absolutely not!
"I can swim, and the beast doesn't have to worry about me." The drowning last time was entirely due to the desire to save people, but it was just an accident.
As if knowing what the beast was thinking, Qi Qi still didn't look into the beast's eyes.He didn't dare to look at it, the soft-heartedness towards lovers is not just the behavior of the beast, making things difficult for the beast again and again, in fact, Qi Qi is also very guilty in his heart.
Sneaking a sneak peek at this person's expression, seeing this person's face blushing because of anger, but still just looking at him angrily, not saying or scolding Qi Qi, his heart aches in the end.
A light kiss touched the man's angry eyes, and then touched the clenched lips.
"Beast, there will be many such things in the future, and you may encounter danger. These things are all things I have to do, and I can't be guarded by you all the time."
Qi Qi's words were like a slap in the face, hitting the head of the beast that only wanted to guard its male beast like other female beasts.Qiqi's different beasts have never been taken seriously, but occasionally he will admire the extraordinary actions of his own beasts, but he never thought that while possessing such abilities, it also represents a different life from ordinary people.Why did he forget that Qiqi is a person with the identity of a god envoy...
Beast looked at Qi Qi in a daze, opened his mouth slightly, and thought of a child in a bewildered look.Qi Qi hugged his lover distressedly, he didn't want to reveal it so early.Encountering the overprotection of the beast, Qi Qi has always reasoned or said soft words to get the beast to agree. Qi Qi's talent is doomed to be different, and there is that almost forgotten by everyone, but it really exists. The identity of the angel.
"I, I will pull the vines, I, I will wait for Kiki on the shore..."
The words of compromise faintly overflowed from Qi Qi's arms, and the beast's voice was already trembling, which was the panic of suddenly realizing the gap between the two.
The hand on Qiqi's body tightened and tightened, and finally let go silently.He always thought that as long as the two of them were together, it was everything. Until today, Beast realized for the first time that there is a mutual responsibility for the identity of the two, no matter what these identity responsibilities bring.
In the end, he put a comforting kiss on the beast's forehead, leaned close to his ear, and whispered.
"My life is entrusted to you." Then he turned around, resolute, and did not stop for a moment.
The beast watched as Qi Qi took off his underwear, jumped into the water, and sank slowly. Following the j□j shadow sank, there was also the heart of the beast.
On the shore, the person left alone clenched the rattan in his hand and stared at the water surface, as if he held that person's life in his hand.On the other side, it was not until there was a loud sound of falling into the water that Mu Sha, who was spitting on the tree and vine, finally came back to his senses.
"Hey! That, this! Qiqi fell into the water again?!"
As soon as he came back to his senses, he discovered such a terrifying thing, and Mu Sha was instantly at a loss for what to do.In other words, your beast has fallen into the water, why are you so calm this time!Forgive this guy for suddenly returning to his senses, and he hasn't figured out the situation at all.
The beast is full of displeasure.This man, he was in a trance when they were talking, and now he was so startled when he woke up.I didn't know what to do!After being bluffed like this, the beast became even more upset.So the unhappy person immediately turned over and gave a cold glance, and continued to pay attention to the movement of the vine in his hand.
Being stared at by the beast, Mu Sha immediately fell silent, and after a quick look, he found that the man was still holding a vine in his hand, and the end of the vine was in his hand.
Uh, what's the situation?He was completely confused, and he didn't dare to ask the only person in the know, and he didn't dare to let go of the tree vine in his hand, and the person who had nothing to do with him just continued to stare at the twisted tree and vine.
Qiqi swam a certain distance after entering the water before starting to dive slowly.Probably because the place where he dived was very close to the mountain where he fell into the water last time and he did not dive in a straight line. After swimming for a while, a mountain wall came into view.There is a mountain wall to dive along, which is just right for Qi Qi who has no diving equipment. He is not afraid of getting lost in the water, and it is easier to dive.
Holding the mountain wall with one hand, paddling the water with the other hand, kicking the water with legs from time to time, as far as the eye can see, as the water depth deepens, some marine life that only appears in the sea began to slowly appear on the mountain wall.Looking down at the deeper water bottom, tropical fish appeared among the more lush marine plants.Qi Qi has never seen fish on the surface of this lake. It turns out that these fish are all saltwater fish, all of them are hidden in the bottom of the water, and they have never emerged from the water.
Time passed by every minute and every second, Qi Qi counted the time in his heart, reckoning that the diving was about the same, and he knew almost what he wanted to know, so he began to want to dive.The moment he raised his head, his eyes glanced over a certain place inadvertently, and the movement of diving stopped firmly.
It was a crack on the mountain wall, and it wasn't the crack itself that Qi Qi cared about, but what flowed out of that crack.Probably because the water source in this lake is not real sea water, but diluted by sea water. Although the water here is still salt water, it is not as rich and deep blue as sea water, but with a touch of blue. Blue-green clear.The water flowing out of which crack is exactly the azure blue with a bit of sea water, a liquid with distinct layers from the water here, and occasionally even some colorful small fish are washed out of the crack.
Seeing such a scene, Qi Qi hesitated.He wanted to dive down to take a closer look, to see that he had been diving for a long time, and places like underwater undercurrents were very dangerous, but, seeing the answer right in front of him, Qi Qi couldn't help himself give up.Freed up his paddling hand, he tugged at the cane tied around his waist. It was very tight and showed no signs of loosening, and his chest did not feel uncomfortable. Thanks to life in the orc society, Qi Qi's obviously stronger body made him feel better. There is also continuing capital.
It's just that Qi Qi already had a good plan in mind when he confirmed these, he can still dive for a while, and the return trip has vines and follows the buoyancy of the mountain wall, which saves a lot of time.While diving, Qiqi roughly calculated the minimum dive limit in his mind, and then stopped at a predetermined safe and short distance.Here, Qiqi could clearly feel the pressure brought by the undercurrent even if he didn't go down and dived again.
There is really no need to continue diving down here, and there is a faint tingling pain in the lungs at this time, Qi Qi knows that this time he really went up, otherwise he would have to drown again.Turn the direction, head up, dive, all in one go, without being interrupted by foreign objects.
The tingling pain in his lungs became more and more obvious, and Qiqi's diving movements became more urgent. Although the tingling pain was within the tolerable range, it was indeed too uncomfortable.Do not dive again if there is no special situation in the future.Thinking about it in pain, Qi Qi couldn't help it, and pulled the rattan rope around his waist in discomfort, using his hands and feet together.
Well!Suddenly a strong force came from his waist, and Qi Qi, who was concentrating on diving, was startled, and when he woke up again, he had already left the water and flew high in the air.
!!!
What's it like to bungee jump in the air?If someone asks him that in the future, he will definitely tell that person, it's the feeling of being dead and coming back to life!Did he experience a bungee jump plus the feeling of being kited?Looking at the person on the ground who was tightly pulling the other end of the cane around his waist, his face was pale, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart.
A strong force came from the waist again, and the person flying in the air fell quickly.Qi Qi closed his eyes tightly, and when his heart was about to pop out of his throat, he finally fell into a warm hug.it is finally over.Qi Qi let out a sigh of relief.
In other words, why does the above situation occur?Do you know about fishing?When the fish takes the bait, pull the line quickly when the line sinks to pull the fish out of the water.And our beast, who has been paying attention to the situation of the rattan rope, how could he feel that Qiqi pulled the line in his hand at the first time, so our Qiqi, who was diving deep in the water, was caught by the beast like a fish.Clean and neat, fast and quick, there are no sequelae except the feeling of soaring into the sky, so should we say that the beast is good?
Relieving the lingering tremor in his heart, Qi Qi gave the beast a hand, and slowly stood up from his body.Although his legs were still a little weak, Qi Qi's voice had calmed down.
"You can go back. I will tell the patriarch all the information I found here today. I will tell you what you want to know when you go back."
The weather in spring is not yet suitable for swimming. You don’t feel it when you are underwater, but you only feel cold when you stand on the shore.Wiping his body hastily, and wearing clothes under the cover of the beast's body, Qi Qi declared the operation over without raising his head, and went back to explain everything.
The clothes in his hand had just been put on, and Qi Qi was put on his back by the beast again.Qi Qi, who was extremely tired, did not resist, and simply buried his entire face in the beast, and rested.His physical strength is far better than that of the non-natives.
The return journey immediately became insignificant in front of the strong footsteps of the two aborigines, and the three of them quickly returned to the place where they stored their supplies.Qi Qi was indeed exhausted, and it was too comfortable to be carried on his back. After persisting until he got today's harvest, he fell asleep. After sleeping, he fell asleep in the tribe, when it was getting late.
