Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Chapter 152: River Crisis

Sailing on the river is very boring, but you have to be vigilant at all times to prevent something from coming out of the water and watch out for the wind direction. Don't go for half a day, but go back.

From the end of the rainy season, the day of departure, until the bi-monthly coincidence, Shao Xuan's calculated safety time is less than thirty days.

Shao Xuan doesn't know how wide the river is, he can only go as far as possible. If after fifteen days he still can't see the situation on the other side of the river, he can only go back. Otherwise, the river will fall sharply and end up in a bottomless abyss. At that time, even if he wants to fly, he won't be able to fly.

The cannibal fish in the river is very active because without the suppression of other giant beasts, from time to time some energetic biting fish will leap out of the water, at first close to the banks of the tribal river, only some small cannibal fish, but as we sail, Shao Xuan will see many more cannibal fish leap out.

Wow...

A cannibal fish nearly four meters long jumped out of the water, jumped high, went from one side of the canoe to the other, and jumped while still having a big mouth.

There was a cannibal fish that jumped before. Shao Xuan just avoided it and didn't do it, but now the target is obviously Shao Xuan.

Take control of the sail with one hand and let the sail bypass the path of this big fish. Meanwhile, the toe lifts one of the wooden sticks next to it, catches the other hand and hits straight at the fish. Quick friction between the body and the air, the sound of a cry.

Instead of using a spear, he used a hardwood stick that was heavily punched on the fish, but could not immediately show it blood. If blood was splashed, the other cannibals around him would be attracted, and Shao Xuan's hands would not be able to cope with it.

Boom!

A few scales were punched out, and the cannibals, who were skewed by the stick and fell into the water, were surrounded by other kinds before they could find a vengeful target. On it, where the wooden stick punched him, where the scales detached, there was slow seepage of blood filaments. These filaments are like stimulants, stimulating the energetic piranhas around them.

After smoking to avoid the piranha, Shao Xuan put up the sail, and at the same time, the chirping in the sky also flew down to grab a rope and took off again. The other end of the rope was tied to the canoe, pulling the boat in a whimper, quickly moving the hull away from the bloody river where it began.

The current direction of the wind is not suitable for sailing, so Shao Xuan put the sail away directly, let the chirping continue to pull, wait for it to get tired, then go back to the canoe to rest, use the wind and sail to continue.

Sometimes, in addition to these cannibals of varying sizes, there are other fish that are only active underwater and don't jump to find things, but if someone goes underwater, it's hard to say.

In controlling the sail, Shao Xuan also saw a fish much longer than the hull of the boat, swimming slowly from side to side, because close to the river, the pattern on the fish was clearly visible, and the raised spiked fins revealed part of it.

That's a lot of fish, but as long as they don't attack the hull, it doesn't matter. Previously, there was a big fish, probably a canoe, with its head over the hull, almost turned the top of the boat, Shao Xuan asked him to pull the boat away quickly, but the fish persisted, and continued to top, until Shao Xuan let the canoe stop, let the fish top the canoe a few times, the fish felt bored before leaving.

Fish also have a variety of habits.

In the daytime rush, he couldn't sleep at night. He stood and rested in the boat. Shao Xuan had to adjust the wind and sail for a while and remained vigilant.

It's tough, there's always that kind of trouble every day, but it's a small problem that can be solved.

……

Shao Xuan calculated the number of days and roughly estimated the distance that had passed.

Eight days later, we still haven't seen the banks of the river, and there are no islands or anything else that stands out, and it's all river water.

Take out the roasted jerky in the animal leather bag, eat some, and save yourself some water on the boat. Shao Xuan will not drink the water in the river until he has finished drinking it.

The meal is resolved in the air, sometimes catching a fish, flying directly in the air, a little further away from the hull, so that the dripping blood does not cause trouble to the boat.

As he was eating, Shao Xuan suddenly discovered that there was an island in front of the slope that revealed the river. He quickly adjusted the sail and went that way.

However, as he approached, Shao Xuan discovered that it was not a small island, but a giant fish, only that it was dead and floating on the water.

Moreover, Shao Xuan found that there were many holes in the fish, which had been bitten through.

Big fish over 20 meters long are eaten with only one skeleton left and an incomplete layer of skin outside the skeleton. Shao Xuan can also see from the holes that have been bitten out what is still eating in the fish.

Inside are some small fish, elongated, individually, not noticeable. And these are the little fish that haven't grown their palms, sharpen their teeth, and they have giant fish with thick, hard armor all over them, and they eat only skeletons, and maybe, in a little while, they don't even have bones and holes full of skin.

Shao Xuan quickly adjusted the sail, left the place, and made a gesture towards the freshly fed air to let it down and see what happened to the giant beast.

“Be careful when catching fish in the future, and throw them away if you find one of these.” Shao Xuan said.

“ ——”

Saw what happened to the big fish and shook his wings. Probably didn't expect this.

After the canoe sailed a little further, Shao Xuan looked that way and found that the big fish, which had been floating on the water, was sinking, and it was almost devoured.

Perhaps, in some cases, fish of vast shape are not the greatest threat to people sailing on the water, and those who do not see are more likely to trigger crises.

Shao Xuanben thought that after a short break, he would continue to fly to the air to pull the boat, but he didn't expect to be standing on the boat, like a quail, squatting there, shrinking his neck, but looking up at the sky, as if there was something in the sky that scared him.

“What's the matter?” Shao Xuan tapped a chirping bird's head and asked. He didn't see anything in the air, but he also felt a great deal of pressure in his heart.

He whispered, his neck shrunk tighter, his eyes still staring at the sky, but he didn't fly.

The boat gradually stopped because the wind was blowing out of the sail, and it stopped.

Shao Xuan looked at the sky, and soon he discovered that the clouds in the sky, scattered, revealed a large area of space. When it's really moving towards a cloudless trend.

If it were normal, it would indeed be considered a beautiful sunny day, but here, it would create a sense of fear under tremendous stress.

Not only is it chirping, Shao Xuan even has the feeling that he can't move.

However, the current situation had to be resolved.

There seems to be a lot less piranha around, not even large fish swimming from time to time, when the wind is really calm, but this calm phenomenon is too strange.

Shao Xuan suddenly appeared in front of him - the river rose with a lot of fog.

The fog looks ordinary and has a huge sense of smoke waves, but it's definitely not normal to be able to hint at Shao Xuan in this way!

Shao Xuan took out the long-handled wood pulp from the boat and began rowing vigorously.

“What are you doing in there? Help! Otherwise we're all going to die!” Shao Xuan chirped.

He looked at the sky, grabbed the two handles of wood pulp next to him, flipped over, and started paddling in a way that he had trained many times in the tribe.

The canoe began to move rapidly under the paddles of Shao Xuan and Zhang.

Shao Xuan has now ignored the others, holding his strength, paddling at full strength, and not even worrying that the splashing of water flowers will attract the attention of other big fish.

The roaring noise, the wooden boat rushed forward, and Shao Xuan's movements on both arms became blurred. When both arms began to feel sore and tired, Shao Xuan picked up a stone needle and shot into the air.

When the needle was about a hundred meters from the surface of the water, a "boom” sounded and instantly turned into powder.

When I saw this, I almost threw the paddle away.

Shao Xuan also felt numb on the scalp.

In a clear, cloudless sky, this sweaty, upright thing is happening strangely.

“Coming down! Row!” Shao Xuan continued to paddle his hand.

This time, the chirping hurried, and as soon as he got up, he snapped a section on the long handle of the wood pulp, both of which fell into the water.

I couldn't help but pick it up and grabbed the other two pieces of wood pulp from the boat, and it was reluctant to grow two more flexible hands to paddle.

The boat is moving fast, like a speedboat with a big horsepower engine running straight ahead.

Go, go! Come on, come on!

The pressure above his head grew, and the feathers on his chirping body blew up.

When paddling vigorously, a feather fell from the chirping body, but was carried away by the chirping vigorous paddling motion, because without the wind, the feathers were not high, about 20 meters, but it was here 20 meters from the surface of the water, that feather again, like the previous stone needle, instantly became crushed.

Shao Xuan and Zhang didn't look up, they didn't have time to think about anything else.

The pressure is still up there, and it's still dropping. If Shao Xuan is unable to escape, he can only end up with the stone needle thrown out and the feathers dropped.

Shao Xuan's body was sweaty. The sweat on his forehead slipped into his eyes. He felt a tingling sensation and could not care less. He blinked his eyes twice quickly. He still stared forward. The movement in his hand did not slow down at all.

There is no time to calculate, nor can it be calculated. Shao Xuan doesn't know exactly what the descent is or how fast it is. He can only focus all his attention on the paddle and control the direction to escape at a straight distance.

I don't know how long I've been paddling. I only heard a bang in the back. Shao Xuan just woke up from the state he was in.

The pressure on the top of the head is gone, the twist looks past, the water vapor rises in the river behind it, and the water vapor is increasing, like fog.

The boat was still moving. Shao Xuan looked at the bird lying on his back facing forward and grabbed the long-handled oar rocking vigorously. He lifted his foot and kicked and kicked: "Okay, there we go. ”

Still immersed in the paddle, Shao Xuan kicked him, almost stretched his wings to fly, two wooden paddles, if Shao Xuan's hand was not fast, had to be thrown away.

Calm water surface, waves again, wind too.

Shao Xuan adjusted the sail, using the wind to keep moving forward. As for the chirping, let it rest for a while, and it's not likely to fly now.
