Wake up, you are the infinite flow boss [Infinite

"Is this true this time?" the little boy stammered.

"Have you met Ah Mao's parents?" Yu Yue asked in a low voice, "Or, have you imagined what they look like?"

The little boy shook his head again and again.

"Then it should be true," Yu Yue said, "Because I haven't thought about their looks. Neither of us have thought about it. It's definitely not an illusion."

This is a very simple truth. Although it may sound silly, it is not easy for people to be able to clearly and continuously make this kind of reasoning when they are always in a world where illusions and reality are intertwined.

The men and women in front of them seemed to understand that it was not easy for Yu Yue, and there were faint smiles on the corners of their mouths, and their eyes were very soft, without the gloomy aura they saw just now.

Under their warm smiles, the gray mist on the river surface gradually dissipated, and the river water became crystal clear, revealing the beautiful stones below.

"Excuse me," Yu Yue plucked up the courage to speak again, "Are you the river god?"

[Bullet screen: If it were me, after seeing so many messy hallucinations one after another, I would definitely not ask this question again...]

[Barrage: It's not easy, there are only three things, this time it's always the river god on the west bank, right?But why are a man and a woman wearing wedding clothes holding hands? 】

[Bullet screen: But if they are river gods, what is that shocking tail just now?I always feel like the right answer doesn't come so quickly. 】

[Bullet screen: Crow's Mouth What do you think of next time, don't talk or post bullet screens, can't you just hold back? 】

Hearing Yu Yue's question, the man and woman in the picture looked at each other with some surprise in their eyes, then they shook their heads together and said in unison: "We are not the river god."

The soft female voice and the clear male voice are very pleasant to listen to at the same time.

"Then, are you A Mao's parents?" Da Mao raised his head beside Yu Yue and asked impatiently.

When I asked this question, I saw a confused expression on the faces of the man and the woman. They looked at each other hastily, lowered their heads, and asked shyly, "Who is the cat?"

[Bullet screen: ... I am so tired of listening to this question and answer. 】

[Barrage: These two npcs, neither this nor that, are they here to be funny?Unfortunately, I thought there was a key npc. 】

【Barrage:? ? ?Don't be so impatient, these two npcs have a good attitude, and they are very cooperative in answering questions, and they are probably related to the river god, isn't that critical? 】

[Barrage: I'm sorry, I was impatient. 】

In fact, it’s no wonder that the viewers of the live broadcast are impatient. Seeing that this dungeon is full of phantoms from the beginning, and there are illusions in the phantoms, which makes them feel that they are always separated from the truth by a thin layer of mist. How uncomfortable it is up.

However, Yu Yue in the picture did not show any impatient expression on his face. On the contrary, he observed the expressions of the two people in front of him very carefully.

After a while, he stood where he was, and did not give up asking, but changed his way and said, "Do you have any children?"

This time, both of them lowered their heads with flushed faces.

Well, well, although there is no answer, I already know the answer.

For some reason, Yu Yue also blushed a little.

【Barrage:? !No, they gave birth to a child, little brother, why are you blushing? 】

[Barrage: Hahaha little brother is really easy to empathize with others, shy little brother is so cute! 】

[Barrage: Wait!Didn't you realize the answer was already out?Just because they look so similar to that little girl and have had children, then they are probably Ah Mao's parents! 】

"I'm Da Mao," the little boy in the picture said eagerly, "Da Mao from Xicun is your child's good friend."

I saw that the man and woman were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and the two pairs of dark eyes that looked like holes were staring directly at Da Mao.

The black hair on the top of Da Mao's head left a bunch of dull hair on his forehead, which is very suitable for this name, and he is not lying at first glance.

So the couple looked at each other again.Then, the wife took a deep breath, and after a while, she turned around and asked Da Mao: "Really? How is she now?"

She smiled slightly, her voice was very strange, as if she was suppressing excitement but calm.

For some reason, Yu Yue felt a kind of depression from that calmness, as if she was forcibly restraining her emotions.

"She is fine now, and wants to see you very much. Don't you want to see her?" Damao said anxiously seeing that the woman was not very excited.

Children's innocent words are the easiest to move people.In the sound of Da Mao's eager words, the faces of the men and women showed a trace of pain and loss again, and the woman's chest rose and fell, as if the wind was constantly entering and leaving her body, blowing her up and leaking air.

Seeing that the woman was speechless, the man answered them with the same deep voice: "Really? Then please take care of her after you go back."

go back?

When the two mentioned this, Yu Yue realized that they didn't even know where they were at the moment.When he turned his head, he could only see the white and boundless water surface, and he couldn't see the way at all.

Looking at Da Mao who was so anxious that he couldn't speak, his heart moved, looked at the two, and asked another way: "You mean, can you send us back? Then who are you? "

Not continuing the child's topic before, obviously made the two people in front of them relax a lot.

"Let us answer your questions one by one." The man said, "We are the guides here. We have always guarded the river and are responsible for receiving guests on the river. Because our bodies and hearts belong to the river god, we cannot Get out of here. We can't send you back, but we can take you to find the way back."

It turned out to be like this.It turned out that they were the guides of the river god.

Yu Yue understood in his heart, no wonder they didn't answer Da Mao's words, even if they wanted to see the child, they couldn't do it.

"Then," Yu Yue said again, "Can you take us to meet the river god? Now that the village is flooded, everyone will be in danger. We need his help. By the way, we came with sacrifices. "

As he said that, he turned his head and wanted to find something, but when he saw the empty boat, he remembered that the box of treasures had been snatched away by the octopus, and he was at a loss.

Fortunately, this time, the kind couple saw his embarrassment and comforted him: "Are you the boatman who came to deliver sacrifices to the river god? You lost the sacrifice on the way again?"

Their words did not mean to blame, but Yu Yue felt a little ashamed and nodded.

"It's okay," the woman shook her head, half comforting and half sad, "It doesn't matter if you lose it, because we can't take you to find the river god, and we haven't seen the river god for many years."

what?

What?But aren't you guarding here?

This made Yu Yue stunned on the spot.

"Yes, as my wife said, we haven't seen the River God for many years." As if to thoroughly answer Yu Yue's doubts, the man said in a deep voice: "Actually, the last batch of It has been many, many years for the sacrifices to cross the river. In the beginning, the river was not so wide. We could always help the sacrifices to cross the river easily and go to the side of the river god. Later, the river became wider and wider, and the boat boss And I don’t want to come again. Without a suitable sacrifice, we naturally wouldn’t go to the River God… Speaking of which, we have even forgotten what the River God looks like.”

[Barrage: This...isn't this too unreliable?Aren't you two in the middle? 】

[Barrage: Laughing and crying, why does my little brother encounter huge pits in every dungeon, what kind of fate is this. 】

[Barrage: I feel that the probability of npcs and bosses forgetting the customs clearance conditions is a bit high recently? 】

"But why is this so?" Hearing this answer, Yu Yue had a bad feeling in his heart. "Everyone in the village said that sacrifices are sent every year. Didn't the river god receive them?"

"Did you see the white mist just now? Many ships carrying sacrifices disappeared into the white mist... We wanted to help, but the power of the mist was too strong, we couldn't do it." The woman said guiltily, "Just like now, although we really want to help you deliver the sacrifice to the master, but we are really powerless, but we can tell you what we still remember."

As she spoke, the woman waved her hand, and a curtain of water gradually rose from the eyes of Yu Yue and Da Mao.

Da Mao was feeling sad for not being able to bring Ah Mao's parents home, when he suddenly saw the novelty in front of him, he couldn't help but open his eyes and mouth wide, staring blankly.

On the water curtain, a scene of a bustling village slowly appeared, and people shuttled back and forth between the alleys of the rice fields, talking and laughing.After a while, they assembled into a team. The tall men each carried a big box and jumped onto the black boat swaying on the shore one by one. A woman in a red dress followed at the end of the team with her head bowed, walking away with some trepidation. On the boat at the end.

In the next second, the fleet was beaming and sailed all the way out of the river bank.

"Ah, it's Mama Mao." Da Mao subconsciously pointed at the water curtain and shouted loudly.

Yu Yue understood, this is the bride being given to the river god, but how did the groom get here?

The water curtain seemed to know the doubts in his mind. As soon as the screen turned around, a stumbling red shadow stood out in the lower left corner—it was the groom whose eyes were red from crying. He rushed to the river and looked at the boats in the distance. , Beating his chest and stamping his feet, the next moment, he jumped into the water suddenly.

Yu Yue: "!"

There was no sound on the screen on the water curtain, but at that moment just now, he seemed to hear the "plop" sound of falling into the water.His heart was beating very fast, and it was also "thumping" and "thumping".

He stretched his neck forward involuntarily, wanting to see if the man who fell into the water was saved, but the picture gradually disappeared in the water column.

"Don't worry about him," the woman seemed to feel Yu Yue's concern, and whispered to them, "What happened later is like this."

Following her words, a new picture appeared on the water curtain again, that is, people sent the boat to the other side of the river - on the other side of the river was an extremely beautiful island with a very delicate circular lake in the center of the island.It was night when they arrived, and the beaded lake looked like an aquamarine shimmering under the stars.

In the center of the gemstone, there seems to be a dormant glow shining, and in the depths of the lake, it flickers on and off like breathing.

As if they were afraid of waking up the sleeping gods, the people quietly placed the boxes on the island, tied the woman in full dress to a tree, and then left quietly and sparsely.

The night was darker, and the woman tied to the tree looked tired and sleepy, her lips were purple, and she was shivering with cold.

"They just left you on the island!" Yu Yue said in disbelief.

A woman's voice sounded from behind the water curtain: "Yes, I was very desperate at that time, and I thought about dying."

"And then?" Even though it was just what happened in the past, Yu Yue couldn't help but start to worry about her.

The soft water curtain began to change in front of his eyes again, as if to appease his soul, the scene switched from the beautiful island, it was a deep water area, among the swaying water plants, there were two red figures swaying in it , they held each other's hand, floating in the current like fish.Perhaps it was because their posture was too comfortable, many small silver fish followed and circled around them, circling wisps of beautiful silver light.

Above their heads, the translucent sunlight pierced through the clear water, creating light curtains around them, and black boats passed above their heads from time to time.The black boat blocks the light, and the boat-shaped seal is printed on the uneven stones at the bottom of the water, making the underwater scenery look uneven and interesting.

"Wow!" Da Mao's eyes lit up, and he reached out to touch the little fish in the water curtain, but Yu Yue gently pulled his hand back.

"Be careful." Yu Yue said, "Let's play in the water later, shall we?"

In the picture, two people in happy clothes swim towards the surface of the water. They hold the bottom of each boat with both hands, turn the boat with them, and head towards the island.

The more Yu understood, this was what the woman said, they were "helping the sacrifice cross the river".

etc?Bottom?

Yu Yue's heart moved, and for some reason he remembered the blood shadows in the river before, when they were also "attacking" the bottom of his boat.

"I can't remember what the river god looked like, but I clearly remember how I was blessed by him. He woke up during the day and was very surprised to see me... After knowing that I didn't want to stay on the island, he didn't He didn't force me, but sent me back to the small village with a wave of his hand. I still remember the shock and fear of the villagers when they saw me, like seeing a ghost." The woman smiled slightly and interrupted him Thoughts, "I'm very glad that they are so afraid of me. This is also a gift from the river god. My husband and I are orphans without father and mother. We let them bully us like this. They deserve to be so scared. So I went ashore, Not afraid of anyone for the first time, wanting to go back to my husband's house..."

Her smile subsided again: "Then, I learned that my husband robbed me of a wedding dress on the day I was sent away, put on a wedding dress and jumped into the river... So I rushed to the place where I proposed to send the bride to the river god." The house of the stranger who tied me up, and then I caught that person and threw him into the river, and then I jumped into it myself—but those people seem to be very powerful, even if they fall into the river, they can use their supernatural power to get back to the bank. But I sank all the way to the bottom of the river..."

"It's foreigners again," Da Mao said angrily, "They always like to come up with bad ideas! Although a small number of people helped us, most of the foreigners brought us more fear!"

"Outsider" Yu Yue: "..."

He didn't have anything to refute, because it sounded like it must be a dungeon player who proposed to send a bride to the River God.

"And what happened next?" he asked in a low voice.

"Later I thought I was dead," said the bride as the water curtain fell, "but I didn't expect that I opened my eyes again at the bottom of the river, and my husband was beside me. We all thought that the river god saved us, so we kept going Staying in the river to guide the passing boats... But I'm sure, it's been a long, long time since anyone other than children has been here. The river god was willing to accept a few children at first, but later, it seemed to change I really don’t like children very much. In short, during the time we haven’t seen him, the river has become wider and wider, and gray fog has appeared, and the small fish in the river are unwilling to swim up again... "

Because the bride doesn't know much about this aspect, she didn't say too much.

But the information they gave was enough for Yu Yue to deduce many things.

It turned out that the bride was not the bride, but was forcibly snatched and put on the bride's clothes as a sacrifice to the "bride" of the river god. It's no wonder that they had a child.

According to the woman, it was because she told the river god that she "doesn't want to stay on the island", so the river god sent her back.After she went back, she naturally wouldn't explain this matter to the people in the village, so the people in the village concluded that "the river god doesn't like adults", and then they began to sacrifice children to the river god.

For some reason, there was a thick fog on the river. Some children could pass through the fog and reach the other side, but recently the river widened and no one could pass.

I don't know if these abnormalities are caused by the bad ideas of the players?

As one of the players, Yu Yue felt a little embarrassed for no reason.He scratched his curly hair and asked, "Now, is there anything we can do? I'm also the boss of the ship."

【Barrage:? !ah? 】

[Barrage: I probably got this story straight.So this man and woman were killed before, and were rescued by the river god, and now they are the guides on the river.Right? 】

[Barrage: Yes!Then the little brother didn't ask himself how to get back, but also asked them if they could help hahaha. 】

[Barrage: In case there are side missions, don't panic. 】

There's really no side quests.

In the picture, the woman shook her head and said in a low voice: "Although we haven't seen the river god again, we guess it's because he doesn't want to be disturbed anymore. We don't need your help, so I'll send you back. Please don't bother the river god again."

As she said that, under Yu Yue's surprised eyes, she took the man's hand, and the two jumped into the water like two fiery red fish.

Two blood-red shadows swam towards the boat quickly, and then disappeared at the bottom of the boat. Yu Yue and Da Mao both knelt on the deck, looking at the water below.

Within a moment, the two of them felt a sense of floating under the deck of the boat, and then the boat turned around as if gaining power, and headed towards another place at high speed.

"Ah! Momo's parents jumped off! Are they going to take us back?"

Da Mao has stayed in the backyard of his home for so many years, without toys or fun, this trip with Yu Yue is like an adventure.He was a child, and his attention was easily distracted by other things.It's rare that he still remembers about Ah Mao.

Yu Yue patted his head, but said nothing.

He looked at the aquatic plants and stones at the bottom of the clear water, knowing that this part of the story had ended here.He let his emotions slowly withdraw from the story just now, and carefully recalled what happened——the story of Ah Mao's parents, he already knew it clearly.At this moment, he was still unable to protect himself, unable to say anything to help them, but this matter was remembered in his heart.

Also, the river god.

In this story, the river god is as beautiful as he imagined.

Yu Yue was willing to believe in this river god. He had a feeling in his heart that if he could meet the river god, many things would be solved easily.

Including these strange things in front of me - the river in front of me is very different from the river just now, it doesn't look like the same river.The shadows of blood in the river also disappeared, and I don't know if they will appear again.This trip failed to deliver sacrifices to the river god, and I don't know how the small village is now, is it flooded?

And that silver tail that appeared just now, what is it?

The boat moved forward on the calm lake, making regular water sounds. Yu Yue only felt that he had become more and more sleepy since he thought of the word "river god", and he closed his eyes unconsciously.

When he almost fell into a deep sleep, he seemed to see a pair of familiar eyes.

"Brother! Brother!"

"benefactor!"

After an unknown amount of time, a voice calling him came from his ear.

Yu Yue couldn't wake up, there was a pair of deep eyes staring at him all the time in front of him, those eyes seemed to be asking why he was looking for him, and they seemed to be questioning him why he left him.

who are you?

Are you the river god, where are you?

Yu Yue asked in his heart.

His full attention was on those eyes, and he couldn't control his body.

"It won't work like this," said Tian Qiu, "He looks like he's lost his soul. Ruyan, try it."

"Well, okay." Then Liu Ruyan's gentle voice sounded.

The next moment, Yu Yue only felt the woman's cold fingertips touching his forehead.

He felt those blood-red eyes narrowed in dissatisfaction, and then turned back.

Yu Yue: "!"

In Liu Ruyan's scream, he suddenly opened his eyes.

There was a blur in front of my eyes, and the dark sky and stars were mixed together, like a bowl of soup.When all this slowly blossomed and became clear, he finally saw Tian Qiu's head with twin ponytails.Tian Qiu opened and closed his small mouth: "Ah, benefactor, are you awake?"

He was lying in the boat, which was stranded on the shore.

Yu Yue took a few breaths, slowly propped himself up on the deck and sat up, when he turned around, he saw Liu Ruyan covering his eyes, panting rapidly.

Seeing that Yu Yue was awake, Tian Qiu turned his head: "Are you okay?"

Liu Ruyan didn't answer, but just raised his other hand and waved it, then stood for a while covering his eyes and panting.

After a while, she put down her hand, her eyes were a little red, and she explained in a low voice: "It's just that I saw someone with a much stronger mental power than me, it doesn't matter."

"See? Thank you..." Yu Yue supported Tian Qiu's outstretched hand, stood up staggeringly, and looked at Zai Zai in front of him.

"I didn't see it clearly," Liu Ruyan shook her head, "It's a beautiful piece of silver, but it's very powerful... My soul was immediately expelled."

"Let's talk about it when we go back." Tian Qiu said simply.

Only then did Yu Yue see Tian Qiu followed by the little dragon king, and dozens of villagers stood densely behind the little dragon king.

This battle frightened him, and he saw that Little Dragon King had a very strange expression, looking at him as if he liked it, but also seemed afraid.Then, Xiaolong staggered his eyes and looked at Da Mao beside him with an unkind expression.

Da Mao said "ah", jumped up and ran to the small village on the right, but Yu Yue didn't come back no matter what he told him.Strange to say, as Da Mao ran, his figure became blurred and finally disappeared into the village on the right.

In front of him, the little dragon king seemed to have forgotten that he had seen Da Mao, and said in an unreadable tone: "Okay, the boss of the boat is also tired, please go back and rest."

His tone was bad, and there was a very unconvinced attitude in his voice, but his movements were inexplicably very respectful, he stepped aside and turned to lead the way.

Seeing this situation, a hundred thousand questions arose in Yu Yue's heart.On the side, Tian Qiu gave him a look, motioning him to go back and talk.

It was getting late at this time, and everyone in the village had already returned to their houses. The windows of some small houses were shining with soft lights, and they were no longer as scary as during the day.It's just that the unique silence in the night still makes people feel empty in their hearts.

The little dragon king didn't say any nonsense this time, he turned around in front of him, and within a short while, he brought a few people to a new house.

The house was built in the middle of the village, as if it had found a gap between two large courtyards.On the top of the hill, with rammed earth walls, there are two rooms inside, each with a long kang bed, a square table and four stools, obviously built for entertaining visitors.

"You are going to sleep here tonight," the Little Dragon King turned his head and said, holding his voice, "I will come to see you tomorrow morning, there are people around to protect you, you should protect him well. Don't play tricks, and think carefully about my suggestion."

Tian Qiu nodded to him: "Okay, we got it."

Only then did the little dragon king look at several people with quite vigilant eyes, especially at Yu Yue. After a while, he walked out of the door and closed the door with a "bang".

"What's going on? What happened in the village today?" Now, Yu Yue was a little confused and asked first.

Tian Qiu went to the stool and sat down: "Of course I have to ask my benefactor, why, did you see the river god when you crossed the river? What did the river god say to you, that he has a crush on you?"

Yu Yue: "!"

Yu Yue was startled and didn't understand why Tian Qiu said this.

He stammered: "You, what are you talking about?"

[Barrage: Hahahahaha blushing! 】

[Barrage: Where are you blushing?I think I was scared. 】

[Barrage: There are a lot of clues on both sides this night, but I feel that the little brother has become a key customs clearance person no matter what. 】

In the picture, Tian Qiu stared at Yu Yue blinkingly, until Yu Yue panicked, and said: "Well, it seems that the benefactor still has concerns, so let me talk about it first, today..."

Today Yu Yue left from the bank of the river, Tian Qiu immediately went to the village head and asked the village head to take all the villagers to follow him up the mountain.

When the village head heard about this, Wan Wan cooperated and called the young and middle-aged man to go up the mountain together with the old man on his back and the woman on his back.

But even though they were so fast, they still encountered monsters on the way up the mountain.Because more and more water was coming from the east bank, those blood-red water ghosts also went ashore to arrest people.This low hill is not as safe as imagined, even if everyone has already run to the River Temple, they can't stop the swarming river.

The scene at that time was very desperate. Everyone stood by the river temple and watched a huge octopus appear in the east temple and kept spitting water at them.

"At that time, we thought that this guild battle would be over here." Liu Ruyan, who had just entered the room and made her own bed, also came out, sat down and said softly, looking at Yu Yue softly.

Yu Yue was also very nervous when he heard it. He looked at Tian Qiu and waited for Tian Qiu to continue.

"Just as we were about to use all available props for the final battle, guess what?" Tian Qiu said.

Yu Yue's mind was full of that scary big octopus, and he shook his head blankly.

"Then the God of the River appeared!" Tian Qiu raised his hand exaggeratedly, "The painting floated out from the Temple of the River God, and a silver light flashed inside, and then the octopus monster opposite was instantly killed. Just one click, not even a second! The man with the six-pointed star on the opposite mountain is about to die of rage!"

She was clearly very happy and gloating.

Hearing this, Yu Yue took a tense breath not only did not relax, but raised it even higher. He opened his eyes wide: "What?"

"Then, all the villagers gathered around to thank the God of the River, thanking the heavens and the earth. Everyone was afraid to look at the painting at first, and then seeing that the painting was about to float away, a few courageous people looked up. .”

Of course, the courageous people obviously included her, Tian Qiu herself.Tian Qiu opened his eyes wide and said, "I'll take a closer look—oh, isn't it you, the benefactor, in that painting!"

Yu Yue was so surprised that he stood up straight with a jolt.

[Barrage: Hahahaha little brother just stood up! 】

[Bullet screen: Yes, that's right, I was stunned at the time and specially switched the angle of view to see, it was when the little brother said "the god of the river will protect his subjects"! 】

[Bullet screen: It's true love, this is a missing person notice, admit it! 】
