triple world

It was still early, and everyone was still hesitating whether to go in at this time.

While thinking about making psychological preparations first, they were also afraid that something might happen if they went in late and they would not be able to go back to the house at night. When they looked at the water that flashed into their eyes from time to time, they would only hesitate even more.

"Shall we go now?" Gu Wensheng turned his head to ask Fu Yan's opinion.

"Go ahead, I think if you finish the task early, you can go back earlier. If you really get stuck, you will have enough time to solve it." Fu Yan said.

There is nothing wrong with what he said, indeed there are these considerations, Gu Wensheng and Song Yu have no objections, and although the others have not made up their minds, they are willing to follow the crowd.

However, Li Qian went straight out ahead of them.

There were three wooden barrels on the river bank, and she dragged one of them with great effort and threw it into the water. There was a splash of water, and the wooden barrel swayed in the water.

Li Qian didn't turn her head back, and stepped on it without saying a word. The wooden barrel sank a little due to her weight, so she steadied herself and sat in it, paddling the water with her hands, and went to the center of the lotus pond by herself. .

"What's the matter with her?" Li Qian's abnormal behavior made Gu Wensheng frown.

Yesterday Li Qian still had a strong desire to survive, knowing that she should not be separated from them casually at any time, so even if she didn't want to, she followed them to the basement, but now she entered the dangerous lotus pond without hesitation , it's kind of weird.

Wang Xiaona also felt very strange: "She was fine yesterday!"

Shen Wen died, Li Qian survived, the living don't need to die or live for the dead, but they will be sad and lost in the end, Li Qian was like this yesterday, her heart was completely filled with self-blame and guilt, but now she is It seems that she doesn't care about everything in the outside world, including her life naturally.

"So, we didn't pay much attention to her this morning... and we didn't find anything wrong with her," Gong Ming said.

Wu Bin added: "Li Qian doesn't seem to have spoken today, and she was very silent in the morning, no matter how sad she is, she shouldn't take risks alone!"

In just a few minutes, the wooden barrel that Li Qian and she were riding in disappeared from Fu Yan's field of vision. Do not know at all.

However, worrying about Li Qian is just a flash of thought in everyone's mind. After all, we are not teammates who trust each other and depend on each other. go.

There are still two wooden barrels left now, and they can indeed go in in batches, but Fu Yan and the others decided to go in together after thinking about it.

After all, if you really want to ask others for help when you encounter danger, the rest of you still have to enter the lotus pond honestly. It's better to come together to be safer, so that you can help them in time if something happens.

Together Fu Yan, Gu Wensheng and Song Yu, Gong Ming, Wang Xiaona and Wu Bin took another wooden barrel and entered the lotus pond together.

Although the wooden barrel was big, it was a bit mysterious to sit three adult men on it. Fortunately, although more than half of it was filled in the end, it did not turn over.

"Let's act together, don't be too far apart." Fu Yan said, this is not harmful to them.

This time, there was no bamboo pole for them to propel the barrel forward, and there were no long enough branches on the shore, so they could only use their hands.

The water isn't dirty, but it doesn't put anyone off guard.

Because the two groups of people didn't want to be too far away but couldn't perfectly control the barrel under their hands, Song Yu and Gong Ming, who was sitting on another barrel, got together and grabbed the edge of each other's barrel, Served as a human fixation.

The benefits are obvious. The original round wooden barrel is not easy to control. It will rotate with a little movement, and there is also the possibility of tipping. Now it is connected, like a small boat, except for the direction. In addition, it is not easy to turn over, and it is much more stable.

Fu Yan, who was at the front, pushed aside the lotus leaves in front of him, and the rest of them paddled the water with their hands so that the wooden bucket could slowly go in.

The lotus pond was quiet and quiet, Li Qian who went in before didn't even make a sound, and everyone didn't know where she went.

The periphery is surrounded by lotus leaves, and only a few lotus plants are in full bloom. If you want to pick the lotus pods, you can only go inside. Fu Yan still remembers that the few lotus pods he saw before were still a little deeper.

There are thin and dense protrusions on the stem of the lotus leaf. Although they are not sharp, they still tingle a little when touching them. Fu Yan only feels that the protrusions on the top seem to be more touching than the ones he has seen before. uncomfortable.

Soon, they arrived at the lotus closest to them.

Looking closer, the touch of red on the lotus petals is even more eye-catching. The bottom part is almost blood-like crimson, which slowly spreads over the entire petals, revealing a charming pink.

Their task is to pick flowers and lotus pods. There is no fixed number, so they plan to have one for each of them. When picking, that person will do it himself to avoid all possible problems.

Fu Yan sat at the front, and he picked this one first.

Under the watchful eyes of the other five people, Fu Yan broke off the stem under the lotus almost easily, and a 01:30 transparent liquid leaked out from the cut, and he put it firmly in the center of the wooden barrel .

"Pick it off so easily?" Song Yu was a little surprised, he thought even picking it would not be so easy.

But it turns out that picking lotus doesn't seem to be the slightest difficulty.

Because the surrounding area was still green, and they could only see a few touches of red not far away, Fu Yan and the others resigned to their fate and approached there.

While advancing, Fu Yan looked back at the direction they came from, and he could still see the shore, where their shoe prints and the marks left when they carried the barrels remained on the wet soil, which was a bit messy. , I don't know why, but Fu Yan feels that he will soon lose sight of this shore.

They did continue to go to the center, and it would be a matter of time before they could not see it, but this kind of uneasy mood still made Fu Yan a little impatient.

After a further distance, they managed to see another lotus, and this time it was Wang Xiaona who picked it off.

The people on the two wooden barrels picked one flower each, and this cycle went on and on, and no one was fighting for it. Naturally, Fu Yan would not quarrel, and Wang Xiaona and the others used the simplest guessing game to decide the order.

As everyone expected, there was no difficulty in picking the flowers, and soon the six people on the barrel got their own flower.

During this process, they still did not see Li Qian, but they found her trace. There was a broken stem, and the cut was still wet. It should have been picked by Li Qian.

It seemed that Li Qian was still ahead of them.

Wu Bin said: "The lotus has been picked, and the rest is the lotus pod. I took a look just now, and it seems that there are still a lot, enough for us."

Gong Ming said strangely: "I saw it just now, but why didn't we come across one? It shouldn't be!"

When continuing to move forward, it was even more difficult for Fu Yan to push aside the lotus leaves blocking the way, and the density of lotus flowers in front seemed to be higher.

"Stop." Gu Wensheng said suddenly.

Everyone stopped their movements at once, and the two connected wooden barrels swayed helplessly on the water surface, and slowly stabilized and did not move.

"What's the matter?" Gong Ming asked, he was still somewhat afraid of this tall man.

Gu Wensheng turned his head and looked around again. They were surrounded by densely packed lotus leaves, and there were a few lotus flowers dotted beside them. This number did not require them to search everywhere before.

"Do you remember the way we went back?" he asked.

Song Yu glanced at the way he came, and said with some uncertainty: "Although there is no guarantee that you will walk in a straight line, if you turn around and go back, you should be able to reach the shore soon."

Fu Yan knew that Gu Wensheng would not ask meaningless questions, and he also felt that the lotus flowers around him had become denser at the front, and he was not sure which direction they were walking all the time, so he looked at Gu Wensheng and asked, "What is there?" Isn't it right?"

Gu Wensheng nodded: "The lotus leaf has become taller."

Everyone subconsciously looked at the top of their heads. At this time, they could still see the sun in the sky, but the elevated lotus leaves easily blocked their vision.

"It's because we are sitting, it should be different when we stand up." Wang Xiaona said, "I'll get up and have a look."

She stood up holding the edge of the barrel, looked around, and soon her face became a little more nervous: "I can't see the shore anymore, there are lotus flowers and lotus leaves all around."

"We've only been paddling for a while, so we can't see it!" Wu Bin laughed dryly.

"Look back first."

The front and back positions were changed, Wang Xiaona and the others took the lead, and Fu Yan and the others went in the direction they remembered.

They saw the traces left by the lotus picking before as they wished, but it didn't make them happy-they still couldn't see the shore.

It seems that when they didn't realize it at all, they entered a completely different space, a world with only lotus flowers.

The six were silent for a while, and finally decided to move on. The way they came from was no longer desirable. They still had to complete their tasks, and they didn't know if they would have a chance to go out.

Because they noticed the changes, Fu Yan and the others paid more attention to the situation around them in the follow-up trip. The further they went, the bigger the lotus leaves and flowers were. The ones that are bigger than one.

Gu Wensheng remained silent. He didn't know whether it was the lotus leaves that had grown bigger, or the people on the two wooden barrels had gotten smaller.

And this time, Fu Yan and the others found that the stems of the lotus and lotus leaves were slightly dyed reddish.

At first, it was only a very slight red color, but as time passed, the red color became heavier and heavier, and it was still conspicuous on the green stem. Fu Yan broke off a lotus leaf, and the originally colorless transparent liquid on the fracture was slightly reddened. The red color on the stem is probably due to the liquid.

Fu Yan smelled it, and the smell of this liquid was very fragrant, without any weird feeling.

They can't find a reason.

The wooden barrel continued to slide forward, and this time they found the suspected trace of Li Qian again.

Fu Yan pushed aside the denser and denser lotus leaves in front of him, and suddenly a touch of brown appeared in front of him, which was completely different from the green next to him. It was the same wooden barrel as they were riding now.

The whole wooden barrel was overturned in the water, and only the bottom was left floating on the water, which could be discovered by Fu Yan and the others.

A lotus flower floated on the water next to it, and there was a lotus pod not far away, which was being stuck in the gap by the stems of several lotus leaves and shaking.

"This can't be..." Wang Xiaona gasped, everyone knew what she didn't say.

Li Qian was the only one who came in before them, but there was no guarantee that someone else came in before them. It wasn't necessarily Li Qian, but the lotus and lotus pod were really fresh, not withered at all, just Like love just plucked.

They all thought of the possibility that it was not so good, although it was not good, the possibility was great.
