fall

The river is flat and wide, and the night wind blows.

The captain was tongue-tied and didn't know how to answer.

The crowd became commotion once again. In the current situation, any disturbance is like sparks falling into the straw pile, which may cause a prairie fire that burns everyone's nerves at any time.

During the few seconds when the scene was silent, water waves floated, and under the dark waters, there were black shadows slowly floating up.

The black shadow hid in the water and floated up silently, without attracting anyone's attention. Even Sui Wen, who was standing on the ice floe, could not detect Wu Ji's movements in the space of Wu Ji.

As a result, a black shadow that floated up the fastest successfully touched the ice floe trampled by everyone.

The size of this ice floe was like a sofa bed, and there were five people standing on it. When the ice floe collided with the black shadow, there was only a sound of "crash", and the ice floe broke instantly, and all the tourists standing on the ice floe fell into the water!

Everyone who was focusing on Sui Wen was startled on the spot, one by one lowered their heads to look at the water, and then shouted in the dark night:

"There's something in the water!"

"It's a reef!"

Amidst the screams of the crowd, Sui Wen also lowered his head.

On the surface of the river, the waves are undulating, and under the undulating waves, reefs are like bamboo shoots growing in spring, standing under the water surface, and three of them are in the shape of triangles, appearing in front of the ice floes under Suwen's feet!

In a hurry, Sui Wen didn't bother to ask the captain about the cruise ship, and only had time to say to everyone: "Don't hit the rocks!"

At the same time as his voice sounded, Shi Qianyin's knife also moved.

The sharp long knife was like a straight knife, hitting the reef directly, but it didn't hit the ground, and accidentally pierced through the middle of the reef, as if there was nothing in front of it.

The two looked at the reef in the water in astonishment, and then at the long knife piercing the reef. Before they could sort out their thoughts, there was the sound of falling into the water next to them.

Another piece of ice floe hit the reef, and it seemed that it was just rubbed lightly. A large piece of the ice floe that contained 30 people disappeared. Among the 30 people standing on the ice, four or five people fell into it. In the water, struggling in the water.

Sui Wen reacted, and first controlled the ice floes away from the reef that was one step away.

The movement of the ice floe depends on the center of gravity of the ice floe owner.

When his center of gravity is backward, the ice floe under his feet will move backward; when his center of gravity is to the left, the ice floe under his feet will move to the left.

Sui Wen carefully manipulated the ice floes, retreated slowly for a certain distance, and then swam left and right.

Reefs emerged from the bottom of the water one after another, and some of them had already laid out a rough path on the water surface, restricting the direction and speed of the ice floes.

Avoid the reef all the way, attack the reef all the way.

But neither Shi Qianyin's Xingying Dao's attack nor Suwen's Wuji attack could really touch the reef.

The reef is like the companion of the ice floes, but also like the natural enemy of the ice floes, it only works against the ice floes!

Several times of probing failed, so Shi Qianyin took back the Xingying Dao directly without doing any futile work.

He asked Sui Wen: "What exactly does the cruise ship want to do?"

The captain glanced blankly at Shi Qianyin, obviously in the reef waters, why did he mention the cruise ship again?

People around fell into the water again, and Sui Wen was anxious to get out of this reef area.

But the bright reefs and hidden reefs are all over the waters, and they can't be circumvented and cannot be defeated. Sui Wen can only move forward step by step.

He didn't talk about the cruise ship, and no one knew what the cruise ship was trying to do; he was looking at another place close at hand-the ice floe under his feet!

"Qianyin, have you noticed that whether it's the flying fish in front or the reef now, they're all targeting the ice floes under our feet..."

He is around:

"The ice floe broke, and everyone fell into the water. But those who fell into the water can still be pulled up."

No matter how dark the sky is, the life struggling in the water is still eye-catching.

Trapped in the reefs this time, he can no longer run around to save people, but Sui Wen has time to observe many details that he had overlooked before.

He found that every time a person fell from the ice into the water, the water around him would change.

There was a gray streak around the drowned man.

The longer the person who fell into the water stayed in the water, the more fine gray marks became. They gathered around the person and formed a circle, like a preliminary vortex...

Sui Wen immediately remembered the earliest time, the vortex that grew on the surface of the water after people submerged, like a poisonous dragon, biting the ice floe...

"After the rescued people got on the ice floe, the ice floe didn't grow any bigger."

Beside him, Shi Qianyin's voice suddenly sounded.

Sui Wen was startled: "Are you sure?"

Shi Qianyin: "I can see very clearly." He paused, his eyes scanning back and forth on the river, "Only when people with ice floes under their feet collide with people with ice floes, will the ice floes grow bigger."

"That is to say—" Sui Wen came to his senses, "There is only one piece of ice floe under each person's feet. If more people fall into the water, then there may not be enough ice floe for people to fall on!"

The new discovery caused an uproar on the river.

Everyone who is still on the ice does not dare to shuttle forward rashly to save people in the dangerous river, but even so, the reef is always underwater, and the ice floes are always scraped by the reef.

By this time, the noise of the night had grown quieter.

Panic is gone too, fear is gone.

But despair is like a poisonous snake, suddenly stretching and stretching in everyone's heart.

As time continued to move forward, the vortex around the man in the water was getting bigger and bigger. At the beginning, there were still terrified struggling sounds. When the vortex was about to form, the river flooded the man's head, and the sound of struggling was never heard again.

The surface of the water became silent.

No one believed that death was so close to him.

In the silence, a shadow suddenly jumped into the water.

Sui Wen suddenly rushed towards a hand in the water. Although the vortex here had been completely formed, the river water had not passed the young woman's head just now. Her long black hair was even floating on the surface of the water. Her hand He also raised it high, struggling desperately towards the sky.

Sui Wen grabbed the hand.

The hand was light in his senses.

Overjoyed, Sui Wen didn't have time to think about it, and suddenly raised his hand——

A solitary forearm was grabbed by Su Wen.

At the fracture, red flesh and white bones are flat.

As for the other parts of a person, they are empty, and the hair that was floating on the water a second ago has disappeared at this moment, and has been eaten by the water.

Sui Wen's arm froze, and his five fingers immediately let go, wanting to throw the forearm out of his hand, but this arm still seemed to have the master's will to survive, and the fingers with veins were tightly fastened to Sui Wen's palm, and painted The five fingers of red paint reflected light in the night, like dried human blood.

"Evil—" Sui Wen glanced at his nails and retched reflexively.

Before he could do any more, Shi Qianyin beside him stretched out his hand and helped Suiwen remove the severed arm.

Sui Wen grabbed Shi Qianyin's arm first, then turned around and hugged Shi Qianyin tightly.

"There are others." Shi Qianyin told Sui Wen.

He was extremely calm, because he basically didn't care about what was happening in front of him.

Do not……

I still care, the only thing I care about is the person in front of me...

He hugged Sui Wen with one hand, feeling the slight trembling from his body, and with the other hand, holding the Xingying Dao, he stabbed and raised Sui Wen in the water beside him. People who were almost fully born picked the ice floe.

At this moment, there are already 50 people on Suiwen's ice floe.

After coming out of the reef area, passively or actively, Suiwen's ice floes merged with those of other people around him, the area continued to expand, and the number of tourists continued to increase.

Looking at the person behind him who was protected by Sui Wen, Shi Qianyin suddenly had some vague feelings at this moment, as if his mood had arisen in a gap in the past at this time, and he had never been so worried a certain person...

But the next moment, this feeling disappeared.

Shi Qianyin embraced Suiwen with one arm, and put this boring feeling behind her.

He asked Sui Wen: "Shall we continue?"

Sui Wen has absorbed a lot of strength from Shi Qianyin's embrace, his mind is calm, but his body is still a little out of his control.

He wiped his face, stood up from Shi Qianyin's embrace, and was about to continue when the person picked up by Shi Qianyin coughed violently, "This place is definitely not the real world, this space must be It has its rules, if 'ice floe' is life, and 'reef', 'vortex', and 'whitebait' are death, then there must be something that represents life, otherwise there is no need to give us a life in the first place, just let us Just fall into the water and drown, so here—in addition to all kinds of obstacles, there must be something we can use!"

The opponent's yelling resounded through the sky.

Sui Wen glanced at the person who spoke, and found that this was the person who prompted the "game" earlier.

"Where do you think those things would be?" he asked.

The man: "In the water, it must be in the water! There are dangers in the water, and there are things we want in the water!"

Shi Qianyin looked around vigilantly, and after a while, his eyes suddenly fixed on one place.

"There's something ahead," he said.

After finishing speaking, he suddenly moved, jumped and ran on the ice floes scattered on the river, until he reached a certain place, picked up something from the water, and returned to Suwen.

Sui Wen saw what Shi Qianyin picked up.

It was a piece of wood, just an ordinary piece of wood.

Four digits are engraved on it.

2000.

What does this mean?

Sui Wen was thinking about the result of the plank, and the palm of his hand touched the top of the plank. The plank suddenly turned into light spots and dissipated in Sui Wen's hands. At the same time, a layer of wood color suddenly appeared on the ice floe under their feet, as if on top of ice. , and laid a wooden floor.

The captain lost his voice: "Wait a minute, isn't this the deck?"
