Chapter 53 Almost Aw
Different from just now, I feel that every second is extralong. Now, Yue Zun feels that the passage of every second is so eager. His hands and feet have not yet swam far, and a second is gone.
Yue Zun knows that when life enters the countdown, it means that I am calm and meaningless.
You can only do your best to extend your survival time in the water as long as possible and look forward to the extremely slim miracle.
There are still six minutes left. There is still no trace in front of it indicating that the underwater river can reach the end.
There are still five minutes left. Yue Zun still swam desperately in the dark underwater tunnel.
There are still four minutes left. How Yue Zun hopes that he can become a small fish and breathe freely in the water.
There are still three minutes left. The suffocation reaction has obviously been felt, and the previous intensity can no longer be maintained. Yue Zun's diving speed is slightly lower than just now.
There are still two minutes left. The limbs are getting heavier and heavier, and the impulse to breathe independently begins to appear. It is very reluctant to suppress this feeling to avoid choking water.
Last minute...
Yue Zun can no longer speed up the swimming speed by himself. He can only let the current take him and swim forward. Now his mind is full of only two words "air".
From the previous two breath-suffering experience, Yue Zun has already deeply understood the importance of air to life. At this moment, I realized this more deeply.
At this time, even if he can breathe the dirty air in the dirtiest toilet in the world, he will feel particularly fragrant.
No one can strangle himself. Because under the lack of oxygen in the brain for a long time, people will feel dizzy, and then pinch their hands will unconsciously release, and then the body will instinctively begin to breathe.
Similarly, no one can hold their breath alive in the water. All people who drown, there is always choked water in the respiratory organs, which is also because the body begins to breathe instinctively after fainting. However, in the water, the only thing that can be sucked into the lungs is water.
With the passage of time, Yue Zun's consciousness became blurred again. When he could no longer control his body's breathing instinct and took a deep breath, water had already choked into his nose.
People who have experience choking water know how uncomfortable it should be. The pain here can really be described as life is worse than death. However, at this time, Yue Zun's consciousness was close to faint, and his intuition sounded that there were roars in his ears, and his hands and feet began to struggle unconsciously...
Maybe it's really an endless road, and maybe it's destined that Yue compliance should not be extinct. The miracle really happened! After choking in a mouthful of water, the body is still breathing instinctively, but what is sucked in is a mouthful of sweet fresh air.
As the first breath of air enters the lungs, the oxygen in it enters the capillaries, then dissolves into the red blood cells, and transports it to the body that lacks oxygen for a long time. The pleasure generated by it is incomprehensible for people who have not experienced the experience of suffocation and dying.
After regaining breathing, a violent cough began. It turned out that the river water that had just choked into the nasal cavity made Yue Zun's trachea particularly uncomfortable, and the body naturally ruled out the river water that invaded the respiratory tract by coughing.
After coughing for several minutes, the river in the respiratory tract was basically exhausted. Yue Zun began to gasp, inhale greedily, and his chest heaved violently. The originally confused brain finally regained its ability to think. However, the tinnitus reaction caused by drowning just now will continue, and there has been a roar in the ear.
Fortunately, the perception of the body is still there. Yue Zun knew from his feeling that his current posture is face to the ground, with his back to the sky, and the bottom of his chest is still soaked in water, but the upper part of his chest is exposed to the water.
shook his head hard, and his brain was a little more awake. Open your eyes and look at it. Unfortunately, it is still dark and rumbling around, and you can't see anything.
"Strange, it's so strange!" Yue Zun scratched the back of his head and was puzzled. But it's always a good thing to be able to get out of danger. His brain has just woken up, his tinnitus is very serious, and his body is soft and weak. Yue Zun does not intend to do any activities immediately.
In this way, it is not too late to continue to lie down for a while, take a break, and wait for the physical condition to recover a little. If you act recklessly, God knows what kind of danger it will cause.
About ten minutes later. Yue Zun's physical strength slowly recovered, and the roar in his ears gradually receded, and his hearing began to recover.
With the gradual recovery of hearing, Yue Zun heard a huge sound of water coming from behind. In this case, it should be that the river encounters a large drop, and the high water flow can hit down rapidly to have such a huge momentum.
Recovering some strength, Yue Zun stood up and took a few steps forward. If you find the terrain under your feet, there should be a slope, but it is very slow. If it hadn't been for the high concentration of Yue Zun at this time, he would not have been able to find it in the case of losing his eyesight.
Gradually, Yue Zun had a clear concept in his heart and understood why he could get out of danger.
When the underground river reaches here, there is a y-shaped fault for some reason, but the two ends of this y are not on the same level, left high and right low.
The river came here, forming a small waterfall of variable scale, which washed down to the opposite side by inertia. But the drop of this waterfall will never be too big, otherwise Yue Zun could not be as intact as it is now. He unconsciously doesn't know how to protect himself and fall to death long ago.
With the inertia of the previous rapid flow of the dark river, Yue Zun, who fell to the opposite side of the river, just came out of the water, so he was able to breathe fresh air and survive.
And there must be another channel at the bottom of this y, and because the terrain on this side is a gentle slope opposite to the direction of the previous river, after the river falls here, after the inertia disappears, it flows to the faults behind it and flows from the river at the bottom of y.
Thinking of the joints, Yue Zun couldn't help but secretly celebrate his good luck again. In this long river before, the terrain did not change significantly until I was in danger of drowning. At the moment when I was in danger, the river suddenly had such a big change, which was really lucky.
For the time being, it is saved. Why is it temporary? Because Yue Zun is not sure whether there is a way out in front of the place where he is staying now.
If it's just a dead end, you will still be trapped here sooner or later. At this point, the way out has been gone. Yue Zun doesn't think he can go against the current and return to the original road.
After finally getting ashore, Yue Zun was no longer willing to go into the water and float along the underground dark river again. Obviously, the terrain in the hinterland has changed greatly, and God knows what will happen if it continues to go down the river.
Anyway, let's move forward first. If there is really no way out, it is not urgent to turn back and venture into the water.
However, when you get here, I don't know why there is no strange purple moss growing on the wall of the cave in the mountain. It is impossible to know the specific environment around you. You can only be blind as a "eye" and detect the surrounding terrain by the touch of your body.
First, I tried to go left and right. What I am now is a channel with a width different from the width of the previous underground dark river. I don't know how high it is. Anyway, Yue Zun stood up straight and couldn't touch the top wall even if he stretched his arm.
At the feet, there is a rock structure, and the rock surface is relatively smooth. Yue Zun speculated that it was probably because the underground dark river flowed from here before the previous river fault was formed. Because this was originally a river, although there is no river flowing through it, the magical purple moss does not grow here.
The power of the years is unimaginable. In the long history of the so-called Canghai mulberry field, it is very possible that the geological structure of 100,000 mountains has changed, causing faults in the dark river channel, which will lead to the differing of the river.
If my speculation is true, it used to be the original river of the underground dark river. So as long as you follow this river, you will find a way out sooner or later. Because all rivers will eventually converge into the sea.
You can't see anything in the dark, and Yue Zun has to be careful at every step. After lifting one foot, slowly stretched forward. Before landing, the center of gravity of the body fell on the ground leg. Then, he held the leg that was leaning out, and his toes landed first. After confirming that it was on the ground, he dared to be down.
You can't blame Yue Zun for being too careful. Otherwise, in case, if there is an obstacle in front of you, you can lift your foot at a normal walking speed and kick the obstacle, you will fall hard.
And who knows whether the road ahead is flat. If a big pit suddenly comes and falls recklessly without Exploring it, it's not fun. More extreme, what if there is a cliff ahead...
In this way, the speed of progress can be imagined. Fortunately, Yue Zun had swallowed the two magical green balls given to him by the old camphor tree before. He was not afraid of starving to death in a few days, and he had plenty of time. As long as there is a road ahead, it is worth taking some time to get safety.
In this way, I kept the speed of the turtle and walked a long distance forward, and there was no obstruction of the road ahead. This shows that Yue Zun's previous speculation is likely to be correct.
If the underground dark river comes here and occasionally appears a fault, and it happens to be connected to such a long passage, isn't it a coincidence?
has finally found a way out. After several twists and turns and many dangers, Yue Zun had a deep fear of this place of war spirit inheritance. He secretly scolded the original "war spirit" for making it so mysterious. Isn't he intention to embarrass the latecomers?
Immediately thought that the cat had told him before. Generally speaking, the "war spirits" of previous generations came here after awakening. After seeing the power of Lexin Mountain, Yue Zun had a general understanding of the ability of the fully awakened "war spirit".
In this case, for the "war spirits" with powerful abilities, the previous encounters are really nothing. Does this mean that the previous crisis is just some appetizers, and the real meal is yet to come?
So, Yue Zun was scared into a cold sweat by the conjecture in his heart...
