Chapter 3

The fourth day is still the fifth day. Wang Qi doesn't know. He doesn't have any timing tools, and time doesn't mean anything to him for the time being. He finally came to the source of the water. The water temperature here is high, and occasionally he can touch things such as leaves. He can conclude that the source of the dark river is here. He stepped into the river and groped carefully in the direction of the river flowing. Slowly, the water flowed a little more anxiously. Wang Qi's heart hung up, and then his hand touched the hole where the river flowed out.

The mouth of the cave is very large. Although the water flow is a little slower than in the river, it is much more gentle than expected. Wang Qi climbed into the cave. At first, the water surface was only half the height, and the waterway stretched upwards. The higher the water level, the higher it was. Later, it almost immersed the whole body, leaving only a void on it. Wang Qi raised his face and let his nostrils rise above the surface and continued to move forward. But it didn't last long, and then the cave became smaller and smaller, and it was finally completely immersed by the current.

Wang Qi stepped back a few steps, gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and swam forward vigorously. He only swam for about ten seconds. The waterway suddenly became bright, several times wider than before. There seemed to be faint light in front of him. Wang Qi was greatly encouraged and immediately accelerated his speed. Soon he saw a small bright opening. Wang Qi struggled to swim. Come to the mouth of the cave, push away a stone that is half pressed above and rush out of the waterway. A sky-blue water world unfolded in front of Wang Qi. When he looked around, he knew that it was a lake on the surface. He jumped in his heart and hurried upstream.

With a bang, Wang Qi broke out of the water. The blue sky, white clouds and forest and grassland were reflected in his eyes one after another. His whole body relaxed and lay on the lake half sinking, only feeling relaxed and happy. After staying in the lake for a while, Wang Qi swam to the shore. In the shallow water by the lake, Wang Qi looked at his reflection in the lake and couldn't help smiling bitterly. His clothes were tattered, his shoulders were wrapped in bloody cloth, and his face was haggard. At a glance, he knew that he was in trouble.

Out of the lake, there is a small forest in front of you. In the distance is a vast green field. The terrain stretches undulating, the grass is fresh and tender, and the cattle and sheep walk among them. The sun is high, and the light of the stars is faintly visible in the clean sky. Wang Qi has traveled in Europe for many months, and he has been to many places with a good environment. He may be able to There is really no such match here. It was still morning. Wang Qi unscrewed his clothes and put them on again. He walked into the woods. There were many fruit trees in the forest, and several small animals like squirrels were eating berries on the trees.

Wang Qi walked over to pick the fruit. Those small animals were not afraid of people. Seeing that he didn't dodge, he just stared at him with wide eyes. Wang Qi ate a few fruits and approached them. They rushed to the branches above. Seeing that they were cute, Wang Qi did not catch them. He picked a few more fruits, waved with them, and turned to the field.

There are really cattle and sheep in the field, but they are not as long as Wang Qi has seen. The sheep's long white hair is crystal clear, but it is smaller than an ordinary sheep. It looks very beautiful. Wang Qi circled around a sheep a few times and thinks it is likely to be an undiscovered species. Then I saw a cow nearby. The cow was yellow and black, its two horns were black, bright and round, and its size was one size smaller than an ordinary cow. These cattle and sheep are walking alone on the grass, with a small number and rarely gathered together, which is not very similar to gregarious animals.

Wang Qi remembered the little beast just now. Now it looks like a variant of a squirrel. It's not surprising to occasionally encounter a strange animal, but it feels strange to touch three at once. The population of organisms will flow, and only in relatively closed places can form some species with strange evolutionary directions. Did you come to an isolated place? With this idea, Wang Qi began to pay attention to the flowers and trees growing on the ground. The surface seems to be exactly the same, but if you look carefully, you can find subtle differences.

For example, there is a dwarf tree with a strange metallic luster between its bark. Although it is very light, Wang Qi found a branch and folded it hard and found that its toughness was far beyond imagination. Like the grass on the ground, there is a crystal color in the tender green. Wang Qi suspected that the sheep may have changed because it often eats this kind of grass.

Am I right? Wang Qi looked at this place again. Except for being extremely clean, he could not see any obvious difference, but he felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say why. After walking about a li, he saw several black marks on the grass in front of him from afar. He rushed over and saw that it turned out to be a few burn marks. Looking closely at the soil there, it seemed that it had been melted by high temperature, but he didn't know who did it.

After walking for nearly three hours, I turned over several low hills in a row, but I still couldn't see the town or village. Wang Qi ate the fruit he had just picked and lay on a sunny slope to rest. The warm sun shone on his body, which was very comfortable. But the sky suddenly changed, the sun gradually lost its temperature, and the sky slowly darkened. Wang Qi suddenly sat up, and it was too dark. It seemed to be noon just now. Why did it become evening at this moment?

Is it my illusion? Wang Qi rubbed his eyes vigorously, but what was in front of him was the reality. The sun really faded, but there were no clouds there. How could he explain it?

The sun became lighter and lighter. Later, there was only one shape left, and the light was completely lost, and then it finally disappeared completely. The sky quickly darkened, and then the stars in the sky were bright, and then the moon rose, becoming a strange scene of stars and moons. In Wang Qi's stunned, less than five minutes later, the night came completely. It is. His brain was finally completely short-circuited.

"It's either that I'm crazy, or the world is crazy." Wang Qi came to his senses after a long time. After searching in his mind for a long time, he did not find similar celestial changes. He patted his head and felt a headache and didn't want to rest. Before long, he faintly saw the lights in the distance. Judging from the scope, there should be the size of a small town. If the previous inexplicable things hadn't happened, Wang Qi would have been very happy to see this town, but now he doesn't feel much like finally getting out of trouble.

Wang Qi walked towards the town. About an hour later, he came to the vicinity of the town. Wang Qi walked up a low hill and looked at the town. Suddenly, he saw two figures running out of the town. They were 50 or 60 meters apart, but they came in the direction of Wang Qi. Wang Qi was shocked. The speed of these two people was too fast, compared with driving. The horsepower cars are not bad at all. Are they really human? He hurriedly hid to the slope and fell low on the ground to observe. After all, the speed of the man in front was a line worse. Not far from Wang Qi, he was caught up by the man behind him. The man did not run away. The two began to confront each other in place, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
