Su Li said: "Who can say for sure? Only tonight will I know. Water Lin Beast, you can tell the direction on the water and find Nanjiang City, so if you haven't been to places, for example, I can only point out The approximate location, or a certain city or county on the map, can you find it?"
Although the water-lin beast does not understand human language, it is as psychic as the alligator-toothed turtle, and can understand the meaning of Suli dialect. It tilted its head and thought for a while, then shook its head in a very humane manner.
Seeing the water scale beast shaking his head, Su Li sighed.
Jiang Shuijue said: "Do you want to go somewhere? Do you want the Water Lin Beast to guide you?"
"Yes, I want to go to Qingshan City, and I have asked Liu Jiande before, but unfortunately he is not familiar with Qingshan City, so I am not sure that I will be able to find it."
"Qingshan City?" Jiang Shuijue asked curiously, "I know it's a mountain city. It's a third- and fourth-tier city. It's not close to here. Why would you want to go there?"
Su Li said: "My parents live in Qingshan City."
When he said that, everyone immediately understood.
Su Li’s hometown is Qingshan City. Qingshan City belongs to the mountain city, a small and underdeveloped city. He used to work in Nanjiang City. Since the flood, he often thought of his parents. I wonder if Qingshan City has been flooded now. After all, Qingshan City is called a mountain city, and the terrain is very high. Even if there is a flood, the situation will not be as serious as Nanjiang City.
It's just that Qingshan City is 200 kilometers away from Nanjiang City, and it's not close to Longqiu Mountain. Although Su Li really wants to go to Qingshan City to see it, he is not sure that he can find it. Once he gets lost in this water, it will be dangerous.
Although Liu Jiande has been driving a taxi for more than 20 years, he is mainly familiar with Nanjiang City and the area around Longqiu Mountain, but he can't do it from Longqiu Mountain to Qingshan City.
At this moment, hearing that the Water Lin Beast said that it could tell the direction on the water surface, Su Li wanted to use it to find Qingshan City.
Gong Xiao said: "Water Lin Beast can remember the location where it has been, so you can try to find Qingshan City. Even if the direction is wrong, you can always find it after a few more tries. The main reason is that Water Lin Beast is there, so don't be afraid to get lost in it." On this water surface, with it leading the way, at least we can return to Longqiu Mountain."
Su Li smiled slightly, glanced at Gong Xiao, and said, "You're right, let's try next time."
Ding Longyun said: "If you say that, I also want to visit Jin'an County."
Jiang Shuijue said: "Brother Ding, what's your situation? Your hometown is Jin'an County?"
Ding Longyun said: "No, I am from Nanjiang City. Su Li should know. I mentioned to him before that I have a daughter named Ding Han, who is about the same age as Xuehui, and she is also thirteen years old this year."
Jiang Shuijue is smart,
Immediately said: "I see, your daughter is in Jin'an County?"
Ding Longyun said: "Yes, after my ex-wife and I divorced, she has the custody of our daughter. My ex-wife later left Nanjiang City and went to Jin'an County, so she brought Ding Han to Jin'an County as well."
When he said this, he looked a little aggrieved, and said: "It made it very difficult for me to see my daughter later."
Jiang Shuijue asked curiously: "Why didn't your ex-wife stay in a big city, but ran to a small county? Is her hometown there?"
Ding Longyun shook his head and said: "No, it's hard to explain. I only found out later that before she divorced me, she hooked up with a man outside. The man is from Jin'an County. It is said that he did it in the county. He is in business, quite rich, and drives a car. It doesn’t seem like a good car. I guess he has a little money. I saw his photo later. He is short and fat, and he is not as good as me at all, mom Yes, just because he is richer than me, bah!"
When Ding Longyun said this, he was a little aggrieved, and said: "I don't know how they hooked up. Later, she divorced me every day, and always disliked me for being worthless. After the divorce, she brought Ding Han Follow this man to Jin'an County."
Hearing what Ding Longyun said, Gong Xiao and Jiang Shuijue didn't know what to say, Su Li frowned: "Your ex-wife hooked up with that man before divorcing you?" Looking at him, he felt a little green on the top of his head .
Ding Longyun sighed and said: "Yeah, I only found out later, forget it, let's not mention these fucking things, it's all over, it's none of my business whether this woman lives or dies now, I just I want to visit Jin'an County, but I don't know how Ding Han is doing."
Su Li thought that Ding Han and Xu Xuehui were the same age, that is, thirteen years old. From the time of the great flood to the present, for children under the age of sixteen, he only saw one Xu Xuehui, and there was no second one. This Ding Han was ten years old. Most likely, it is impossible to find it, but it is difficult for him to say this.
Or maybe Ding Longyun knew in his heart that he wanted to go to Jin'an County just in case.
"There is always a chance. How far is this Jin'an County from Longqiu Mountain?" Su Li was not familiar with this Jin'an County. He had only heard the name, so he didn't even know where it was.
Ding Longyun said: "I probably know. I asked a few people before, and it's about sixty to seventy kilometers away from Longqiu Mountain."
Su Li nodded and said, "Okay then, when we come back from Nanjiang, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, if there is nothing else, we will go and have a look."
Ding Longyun hummed and said: "It's been so many days since the flood appeared, and I've seen it off. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry for a day or two. We can find a way to go to Qingshan City to find your parents first, and then Let’s go to Jin’an County to have a look.”
Su Li said: "By the way, Gong Xiao, Shui Jue, and Xue Hui, are there any relatives you want to look for?"
He thought that he wanted to go to Qingshan City to find his parents, and Ding Longyun wanted to go to Jin'an County to find his daughter, but he didn't know if Gong Xiao, Jiang Shuijue and Xu Xuehui had relatives looking for them.
Xu Xuehui was the first to shake her head, saying no.
Gong Xiao said lightly: "My family members are all in Nanjiang City."
She only said this sentence, and the expression on her face was also faint, but it actually showed everything.
All the survivors in Nanjiang City, who are still alive, have already arrived in the ancient city, and there is no need to search for those who are not in the ancient city.
Although Gong Xiao acted very calmly, Su Li could still feel the slight sadness in her tone.
After all, the human heart is flesh, who doesn't care about parents and relatives?
However, in such a world, life is like a mustard, and life is like a mayfly.
Although I am alive today, I don't know if I will have a chance to breathe tomorrow. I have witnessed the disappearance of countless lives. Regarding the death itself, including the death of relatives, everyone's mental capacity is much stronger than ordinary people.
In fact, without a strong enough endurance, it is almost impossible to live to this day. Just the ubiquitous danger of death and countless monsters can make people collapse and fall into madness.
Jiang Shuijue showed a sad look on his face, and said: "My family is also in the urban area, family... I dare not think about it, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable."
She shook her head as she spoke, obviously unwilling to bring up the subject.
The atmosphere suddenly became depressing, only the whistling wind was blowing head-on, the speed of the alligator tooth turtle and the sea python shark was very fast, they had already thrown the giant skull far behind, and they were moving at the fastest speed Rush towards the direction of "Nanjiang City".
No one spoke for the next section of the waterway, Xu Xuehui lay on Gong Xiao's body, and slowly fell asleep.
Jiang Shuijue sat behind Su Li. There was still some gap between the two of them, but slowly she pressed her limp body against Su Li's back.
Seeing that Su Li didn't object, she rested her head on Su Li's shoulder.
Su Li felt it, and there was a rippling in his heart. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Shuijue's hand wrapped around his waist, feeling that her hand was very small, as soft as boneless.
Jiang Shuijue felt Su Li holding his hand, and his slightly closed eyes moved, but he didn't resist or struggle.
Su Li didn't make any further moves, but held her hand silently, looking at the endless water surface in front of him, feeling the wind blowing towards his face, some warmth surged in his heart.
Before, he would always think of Wang Lan in his heart, especially in the dead of night, but after so many days, the number of times he would think of Wang Lan has become less and less, and he has gradually accepted the reality in his heart. , I will never see Wang Lan again in this life.
But now, there are two girls by his side, whether it is Gong Xiao or Jiang Shuijue, they are both good girls in his opinion, but it is precisely because of the appearance of two that he is a little bit in a dilemma and has a difficult choice syndrome .
He could tell that both Gong Xiao and Jiang Shuijue should like him.
It's just that Gong Xiao's personality is more high-definition, and his performance is more reserved, while Jiang Shuijue is more enthusiastic and unrestrained.
If only one Gong Xiao, or only one Jiang Shuijue appeared by his side, maybe they would have become a couple long ago, and it wouldn't be until today that the three of them are still ambiguous.
Su Li sighed secretly, feeling some indescribable troubles in his heart, as if he felt that he chose Gong Xiao, but also felt a little bit reluctant to part with Jiang Shuijue, and felt full of regrets for Gong Xiao after choosing Jiang Shuijue.
But you can't have it both ways.
Su Li thought about everything that happened between him and Gong Xiao last night. After Gong Xiao left, he didn't keep her anymore. In fact, he could tell from Gong Xiao's subtle reaction when he left later. If he wanted to keep her , nine times out of ten she will stay.
It's just that Su Li's mind was relatively clear at that time, so he couldn't help but think of Jiang Shuijue. He understood that keeping Gong Xiao behind at that time meant that he and Jiang Shuijue could only be ordinary friends in the future. It was this slight hesitation that made him Couldn't ask to stay.
As for the fact that she took Gong Xiao's clothes and punched her suddenly, it wasn't because she didn't want to, but because she was completely unprepared in advance and had an instinctive reaction when something happened suddenly.
Su Li silently looked at the water ahead, riding a sea python shark, side by side with Ding Longyun, and followed behind the two snapping-toothed turtles.
The Water Lin Beast lay comfortably on the back of No. 1 Alligator-toothed Turtle, occasionally instructing No. 1 Alligator-toothed Turtle to adjust its direction.
Su Li nodded secretly. It seems that if they hadn't brought the water scale beast today, it would be really difficult for them to accurately find Nanjiang City in this vast and boundless water surface.
Although Su Li was a little road-crazy, he still remembered the journey from Nanjiang City to Longqiu Mountain. According to his current estimation, they had already left Longqiu Town and entered the area of Shili Town.
The shortest way to reach Nanjiang City is to go through Shili Town, Jinxia Township, Shuangtang Town and Gaozhuang Town all the way, and then arrive at the area of "Nanjiang City" Chongyuan District.
Suddenly, the Shuilin Beast lying on the back of Alligator-toothed Turtle No. 1 suddenly seemed to have discovered something, raised its head, opened its mouth, and let out a low growl.
With its low growl, Jiang Shuijue and Xu Xuehui, who had their eyes closed, woke up.
Su Li looked towards the water ahead and also found something.
On the water in front of them, a huge black shadow appeared in the distance, looking like a floating island, or a hill that was not completely covered by water.
Su Li can be sure that there were no such hills on the way from Nanjiang City to Longqiu Mountain last time.
"Is that a mountain? I remember the last time I passed here, right?" Ding Longyun was also very surprised. He only passed this water a few days ago, and he remembered it very clearly.
Not sure what it was and whether it was dangerous, Su Li still said decisively: "Water Lin Beast, avoid it and don't get close."
The water scale beast let out a slight whistle, responding to Su Li, and then it patted the snapping-toothed turtle's neck with its claws, ordering it to change direction.
"Xuehui, can you see what that is?" Gong Xiao asked Xu Xuehui, among the crowd, she was the one with the sharpest eyes.
Xu Xuehui looked at it and said, "The monster's lair."
Then he gestured with his hand again, and continued: "Coral reef, coral monster."
Jiang Shuijue was a little surprised, and said: "Coral reefs? Isn't that only found in the ocean? Why are there coral reefs here?"
Su Li said: "As I said before, this great flood has made this world more and more weird, just like the huge mechanical island before, where did so many metal machines come from... Coral reefs appear here Or a coral monster, that's nothing unusual."
Jiang Shuijue hummed and said, "You're right, that's right."
Ding Longyun murmured: "Coral monster? Can that coral turn into a monster?"
Gong Xiao said lightly: "Even corpses can be brought back to life, let alone corals."
Knowing that the place in the distance is the lair of coral monsters, everyone avoided it far away. Although it would increase the distance, fortunately those coral monsters in the distance did not appear.
After completely bypassing the coral monster lair and leaving it far behind, everyone slowly relaxed.
Along the way, everyone encountered two lairs where similar monsters gathered. Although they completely bypassed them, they increased the distance and delayed the time. Seeing that it was already noon, everyone only made up about half of the distance. .
"It's been almost two hours. I'm afraid we've only gone half way, and we haven't reached Shuangtang Town yet." Ding Longyun looked around, and he could see some sporadic buildings floating above the water. He had some impressions. , This should belong to the junction area of Jinxia Township and Shuangtang Township. From here, it is inferred that everyone has just walked halfway.
