After the agreement was reached, Shen Luo gave the horse to Yu Dadan and his wife to take care of him, while holding the small boat, he moved towards the river.

As soon as he set off, Yu Dadan did not forget and gave a careful reminder. For fear of his accident, Shen Luo naturally did not dare to neglect this, and noted the situation of each river section in detail. And things to pay attention to.

The woman even added clean drinking water to the boat. She brought out a few pancakes and some dried meat from home, wrapped them in linen cloth, and insisted that Shen Luo take them to eat on the boat.

Shen Luo was so kind, so he smiled and accepted the package.

The awning boat drifted down the turbulent river. Shen Luo stood on the bow of the boat, holding a bamboo pole in his hand, but he didn’t support the boat, but dropped on both sides of the boat. Explore the reef.

Soon, the boat bypassed the clumps of tall reeds and entered a reed swamp.

According to Yu Dadan, this section of the river is the entire Hillwater River. The water is the most turbulent section. The speed of the boat is not too fast when it enters the water, but the speed increases as it goes downstream. So fast, so that Shen Luo had to start using the Penny to get to the bottom to slow down the boat.

It's just that he is in the hands of the fact that he is punting, and there is nothing in the calm water. In this kind of rapids, even though he has been concentrated attention completely, he is still unavoidable.

"Bang, bang, bang"

The boat swayed eastward and westward, constantly hitting the reef under the river, shocking the mallard geese flying by the reeds on both sides, and the waterbirds soaring into the sky .

When encountering some big vortexes and submerged reefs, he has to do his best to push the boat away, otherwise, if he gets involved, he may overturn the boat if he is a little careless.

Shen Luo soon became tired and sweaty and dazed, but under the pressure of the water, he couldn't allow him to rest, so he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

Along the way, he paid special attention to the river banks on both sides to see if there were any narrowing of the river course. However, due to the high and dense reeds in the river, his vision was affected and he could not see clearly. As far as possible, judge based on changes in water potential.

After all, where the river is narrowed, the speed of the water will also increase.

Shen Luo has been drifting like this for seven-eight li, not encountering the rocky beaches along the way, but there are quite a few river-center sandbars.

His boat plunged head-on into two narrow sandbars.

The sandbanks were all covered with azure reeds, like a natural waterway. As soon as the boat entered it, the speed suddenly increased and rushed out.

With a muffled sound of "peng", when the boat rushed out of the reeds, it suddenly shook violently.

Shen Luo staggered and almost fell from the bow.

He supported the penny, stabilized his figure, and looked forward, and saw that in front of the bow, he had hit a rocky beach the size of several ten zhang. Fortunately, the boat The wood is strong, but it hasn't been damaged.

Different from the sandbanks seen along the way, the rocky beach is full of fist-sized gray pebbles and sand, and the place where it collided with the bow of the ship is much larger than the other rocks. Many brown river reefs.

Not only is this rock grotesquely long, it is only two feet high above the water, and more of it is hidden underwater.

The bow of the ship happened to be stuck in a groove of this strange rock, but fortunately it was not damaged.

Shen Luo moved towards looked at the banks of the two rivers for a moment, and found that the rivers on both sides reached here, obviously narrowed a lot, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The narrowing of the river, the rocky beach, the underwater river reef, it looks like it should be here." Shen Luo muttered.

According to Yu Yan's statement, their ancestors found the Nameless Heavenly Book under a rocky beach. Right now, this place fits perfectly.

I thought I needed a lot of searching, didn't expect did not spend too much time.

Shen Luo threw the Penny on the rocky beach, leaned over and tied the rope tied to the bow of the ship to the river reef, and pulled it hard to make sure that the boat would not drift away with the water. , Sat down in the cabin and fell backward.

Just now, he was exhausted and exhausted. At this moment, let alone go down the river to find Heavenly Book, the strength to jump off the bow is gone.

Shen Luo rested for a long time and ate some dry food before finally taking a sigh of relief and standing up again.

He took out a bundle of thumb-thin hemp rope from the cabin, tied one end firmly to the river reef, and tied the other end around his waist twice before jumping off. The boat came to the rocky beach.

The shape of the rocky beach is similar to an ellipse, which is consistent with the direction of the water flow. It is long and narrow from east to west, and slightly narrower from north to south.

I saw the river water is dark, with a faint smell of mud, white waves on the rocky beach nearby, and vortex of different sizes floating on the river in the distance. To the condition under the water.

He settled for a while, put out a foot, cautiously moved towards the water and stepped over.

As a result, the rocks on the edge of the water were loose, and suddenly it slid downwards as soon as the force was applied.

Shen Luo stepped on the air suddenly, "pu tong", and fell into the river.

Here the river is quite deep. He was buried in the water, and was rushed by the rushing water. He hit the boulder with his back and couldn’t help but open his mouth. Choked into a few large mouths of river water mixed with sand.

In panic, he hurriedly turned around, grabbed the huge boulder in his hand, and climbed up, sticking his head out of the water, took a deep breath violently, and coughed violently.

"cough cough..."

Shen Luo spirit slowly recovers after a while, and he wiped the river water on his face, feeling a little bit frightened in his heart.

"This place is really dangerous, but if it weren't the case, then Nameless Heavenly Book would not be here for such a long time, and no one would find it." Shen Luo thought, and what he thought about Nameless Heavenly Book The desire grew stronger.

This time, he took a deep breath before he pinched his nose and sank under the water abruptly, holding the boulder behind him with one hand, little by little moved towards underwater.

After entering the water, he slowly opened his eyes, only to find that the water quality in the river was a bit turbid. Feel towards the bottom of the river.

To his surprise, the riverbed was quite deep. When he stepped on the sand at the bottom of the river, the breath he was holding was no longer enough.

He forcibly resisted the feeling of suffocation, and tried his best to look at the bottom of the river under the rocky beach with wide eyes, and in the dimly he saw that there seemed to be some invisible deep and shallow mud caves inside. I couldn't really see it, so I hurriedly explored my hands and fumbled.

It was only a short while, and the long hold of breath made him feel dizzy and his chest was dull, so he could only help the piece to climb up a little bit and return to the water.

Shen Luo sucked in air, his chest undulating violently.

When his breath calmed down a bit, he plunged into the water again, moved towards the bottom of the river and sank.

This time, in order to try to stay at the bottom of the river for a while, he was sinking much faster. Once he reached the bottom of the river, he immediately fumbled under the water.

It's just that the bottom of the water is dim, and there is mud and sand, and the eyes can help little. Shen Luo can only feel like a headless fly.

After a while, his breath was exhausted, and he could only return again.

After a little recovery, he hurriedly plunged into the river bottom and fumbled around under the rocky beach.

After a few rounds, when Shen Luo came to the surface for breathing, his whole body was tired and cold, and his lips were a little bit bruised.

He held the reef and slightly raised his head and moved towards the sky to the west, and found that the sun had begun to sway westward.

"Try again..."

Shen Luo's eyes condensed, and suddenly took a deep breath again, and the whole person sank down again, moved towards the bottom of the river. Go down.

The mud caves and caves under the river reef have been almost touched by him. He walked around the stones, moved towards the south side of the rocky beach and swam over, with his palms pressed against the riverbed and went inside. touch.

This time, when his right hand squeezed through a small hole to go inside, his fingertips suddenly touched something very different from a stone.
