“Phew … I can finally breathe normally.” That was the first thing that Xiao Tan said after he took off the breathing mask.
By then, brother Jue’s group had reached the end of the river. There were no more black roses or poisonous pollen here, only a waterfall that flowed upstream.
“It’s this kind of waterfall again …” Looking at the water that was flowing against the flow, Feng bujue was immediately reminded of the encounter that he had at the Detective Club.”Is it going to be one of those weird mind-traveling scenarios again?”
Although he had some concerns, he had no other choice. After all, there were no forks in the river, so it was impossible for him to go back the way he came.
“Everyone, let’s ride the current and go up.” When they arrived at the edge of the waterfall, Feng bujue slowed down and put away his pipe. He turned around and said to his teammates,”
!!
“I don’t have any objections. It’s just a change in weight anyway …” Buu said.
“Ah … I don’t care. I’ve already been in the water.” Xiao Tan added.
“I don’t have any objections either.” Aubrey also expressed his agreement.
However … The two ladies who had not yet fallen into the water seemed to be reluctant to jump into the river.
“Bujue, you don’t mind me standing on your shoulder for a while, do you?” RUO Yu asked.
“Ha?” Feng bujue was stunned for a moment before he replied,”I don’t mind … But … Is it necessary?”
“Of course there is!” Before RUO Yu could reply, Ling interrupted,”although you won’t lose any stats if you’re in the water, it’ll be very uncomfortable if your wet clothes stick to your body after you leave the water.” She paused for a moment.”Besides, we haven’t touched any water on our way here. If we jump into the river now, it feels like all our efforts will be in vain.”
“Fine …” Feng bujue said.”Then … Pa.s.sing rain will stand on my shoulder, and as for laughing soul … Xiao Tan, you’ll be the one to take over.”
“Er … How am I supposed to do that?” Xiao Tan asked.”Even though I can swim, I can not guarantee that I will not sway when someone is standing on my shoulder.”
“Haha …” Feng bujue chuckled.”It’s simple. Just let her ride on your neck.”
…………
30 seconds later, the players were in the water of the waterfall. The direction of the gravitational force here was different from the previous area, so they did not have to worry about falling down after leaving the water. To them, the “below” was now “behind.” The “front” just now was the “bottom” now.
“Hmm … We really won’t fall …” Brother Jue squatted on the water and stretched his arms to his sides. He tensed his muscles and read with a constipated expression,”we’re carrying the weight of three people, but we still won’t fall …”
At that moment, Xiao Tan, Buu, and Aube were all floating on the surface of the water. Only Feng bujue … Squatted on the surface of the water as if he was performing. There were two people standing on each of his shoulders …
“We’re both girls, so we should count as 1.5 people. ” Ling, who was standing on brother Jue’s left shoulder, said.
“That will depend on the situation,” Feng bujue replied.”If the ‘person’ is Buu, then the two of you can only be counted as 0.8 people.”
“Teacher Jue, I can be very light.” Buu, who happened to drift past brother Jue, added in time.
“Sigh …” Feng bujue sighed and recited,”don’t sigh at the bitterness of the Yellow River, and laughter brings sorrow.”
“Uh … What do you mean?” Aubrey, who was treading on water not far away, turned his head and asked.
“The core idea is that …” RUO Yu, who was standing on brother Jue’s right shoulder, continued,”he deeply realized that … His current situation was caused by his cheap mouth.”
After bu ou heard this, he revealed an expression of admiration.””Hmm … As expected of teacher Jue. His poems are so deep …”
“As expected of teacher Jue …” Aube chimed in.”He’s even more artistic than the average person when he’s doing his self-reflection …”
“Are these two really not sent by the author to make up the word count? how many times do I have to use the same sentence to be satisfied?” Feng bujue did not say it out loud, but he was already complaining inside.
…………
Everyone rode on the current and quickly moved forward. After a while, the Golden River “behind” disappeared from their sight, and the light source disappeared with it.
There was no gold, silver, or jewelry under this “waterfall”, and no light shone up from the bottom of the river. The players had to take out their lighting equipment again to light up the path ahead.
In just a few minutes, the players seemed to have “drifted” from dusk to night, and it was the kind of night where they couldn’t see their fingers without turning on the lights.
Of course, thinking about it carefully … Wasn’t the direction they were heading in the “darkness” above them not long ago …
When they finally realized it, a thick, almost tangible shadow had surrounded them. Even the lamp in brother Jue’s hand could only light up a five-meter radius.
The rapid current pushed them forward, and the unknown darkness closed in on them like a beast.
In such a situation, the players ‘terror points naturally rose …
Xiao Tan, Buu, and ou bu all swam near brother Jue and pulled each other back. A strange thought rose in their minds. Once they were washed into the darkness by the water, they would never be able to find their teammates again …
“Uh … Did you guys notice … The surroundings seem to have become colder.” Several minutes later, Xiao Tan suddenly spoke.
“Is it because we’ve been in cold water for a long time, so our body temperatures have dropped?” Buu continued.
“No, it has indeed become cold.” RUO Yu continued in a firm tone,”the temperature dropped from 20°C to around 5°C.”
As someone who had never been in the water, her words were very convincing.
“And … The stone walls on both sides are gone …” Ling added. As she spoke, she swept the flashlight in her hand to both sides.
Indeed, the two stone walls that were three meters apart had disappeared … And were replaced by thick darkness.
“I … Noticed all of this.” The only person who could calmly answer these questions was Feng bujue.”And I noticed it a long time ago.”
“Then why didn’t you say so earlier?” RUO Yu asked.
“I thought you all knew that,” Feng bujue replied in a matter-of-fact tone.”The darkness is getting thicker, the distance between the stone walls is getting wider, and the air is getting colder. These are things that you can tell with your sight and body. We didn’t encounter any monsters or anything special along the way, so you should be aware of this …”
“Hmm … When we realized it, it was already too late,” Xiao Tan said.
“It’s all the same …” Feng bujue said in a lazy tone.”Even if I noticed the changes at the first moment, it did not change anything, did it? At most, he’ll be calmer than you guys and won’t have that kind of late-thinking panic. ”
“Since you won’t feel any fear under any circ.u.mstances.” RUO Yu continued,”the next time you discover something … It’s better to say it as soon as possible.”
“Alright,” Feng bujue said weakly.”Next time, I’ll …”
[Look for a friend~find a good friend~] suddenly, a strange child’s voice interrupted brother Jue.
[A salute and a handshake …] The voice suddenly stopped …
“Ah!” At that moment, Aube let out a loud cry and sank into the water.
“What’s going on? Didn’t he capture you?” Feng bujue immediately turned to ask Buu and Xiao Tan.
“I … I don’t know …” Buu was scared out of his wits. He looked at brother Jue with a blank expression and stammered,”he … When the song started … He seemed to … Let go of his own hand …”
At this moment, the child’s voice laughed strangely and continued to sing,”[Hehe … I found a good friend …]
“Looking for you …” Feng bujue cursed.”Don’t play that trick on me, hand over the person now!”
Brother Jue knew very well that in a normal difficulty scenario, there would not be such a sudden kill without warning. Moreover, he had immediately opened the game menu to confirm it … In the team bar, Aube’s current state was still “alive.” Therefore … The scene that was happening in front of him was most likely just a scary plot. From the atmosphere to the lyrics … It was all part of the psychological battle.
Under such circ.u.mstances, he had to suppress the other party with his aura and destroy the terrifying atmosphere that the other party had created. This way … The enemy would reveal his flaws.
[Find find find find friend~] after a few seconds, the child’s voice started singing again. It seemed like ‘it’ wanted to ignore brother Jue and repeat what had happened.
But … Feng bujue would not let him do as he wished …
“Sing your [beep beep beep]!” Brother Jue immediately used a voice that was twice as loud as the other and shouted into the darkness ahead,”I’m talking to you!”
This time … The voice didn’t manage to continue singing. It had to pause for a few seconds before continuing,”[I found a good friend …]
“Are you a F * cking deaf alien!” Feng bujue shouted,”if you have the guts, why don’t you try singing another line?”
After a short silence …[Salute …]
“Shaolin Kungfu, wake up~support~Shaolin Kungfu force~tie it up! My Department is iron head technique~invincible iron head technique! You’re wearing the Vajra leg … The Vajra leg!” Feng bujue used a song like that to choke the next line of ‘it’.
Finally, when brother Jue sang the phrase “Shaolin Kung Fu is good,””it” could not take it anymore …
“Stop!” The child’s voice shouted,”it’s so unpleasant to hear!”
This roar announced that …’It’ had been brought into brother Jue’s rhythm. In a sense … The outcome had been decided.
“Hehe … You can hear me?” Feng bujue stopped his unruly singing and smiled.”That’s easy. If you want to negotiate with me … You’ll have to return my partner first.”
“So what if I don ‘t?” It asked.
“I have the Vajra leg! Vajra leg! “Woohoo~woohoo!” A hoa.r.s.e high-pitched song responded to its question.
“Okay … You win …” Its shocked tone revealed its helplessness. It was easy to tell that it was feeling frustrated at the moment.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
In the next second, Aube’s figure suddenly emerged from the water near the players.
“Ha ah … Ha ah …” As soon as he emerged from the water, he gasped for breath.”Ha ah … Just … Just now … What happened?”
“It’s nothing … I think … You should be glad that you weren’t here just now. ” When RUO Yu said this to ou bu, her gaze fell on brother Jue, and her eyes were filled with disdain.
“Feng bujue … I thought … The rumors about you were exaggerated …” It spoke again after a while.”Now, it seems that meeting you in person is better than hearing about you …”
“We haven’t officially ‘met’ yet, have we?” “At least … I haven’t seen you in person,” Feng bujue said. He probed without changing his expression,”don’t tell me that your original form is a Sparrow …”
Before he could finish, the voice of the count of script rang in his head,””Feng bujue, don’t do anything stupid … If you fight ‘it’ directly, you will die, and even I can’t help you …” Brother Zun said seriously.”Right now,’it’ has merged with ‘me’ in the scenario. You just need to find the boy’s body …”
“Shut up! Count of script!”
At that moment, something unbelievable happened …’It’ yelled and interrupted the voice in brother Jue’s mind.
