"stranger……"
As the cold voice sounded, the shadowy companions around the figure turned their heads and stared at the people at the cabin door.
My scalp was numb, my whole body was stiff, all the hairs on my body seemed to explode, cold sweat soaked my back, and those pairs of unclear eyes were like poisonous snakes staring at their prey, waiting for an opportunity to pounce.
The people in the cabin were lying by the window, looking down, and they also felt extremely scared. They held their breath and dared not breathe, as if by doing so they would not alarm the twisted figure in the river.
The people at the cabin door were obviously even more frightened, but they all kept their eyes wide open without blinking, their nerves were tense, and they couldn't relax for a moment.
Fine beads of sweat gathered on the forehead, gathered into large drops of sweat, slid down the cheeks, and flowed along the lines to the neck, with the Adam's apple sliding down with difficulty.
The turbid blood-yellow river water surged and boiled, constantly washing over the figures in the river, some of whom were covered in blood and flesh. It was unclear whether the blood-yellow color that was carried away by the river water was the original color of the river water or the flesh and blood that was washed away from the other person's body.
The longer this group of figures stayed in the river, the more painful they seemed to be. Their expressions became more twisted and resentful as they looked at everyone.
Finally, someone could no longer bear the pressure of such great fear, and screamed and retreated back into the cabin, fleeing and hiding in the cabin.
Along with the scream, many figures in the river suddenly rushed towards this side with ferocious faces, roaring, crying like owls and howling like ghosts, and the cold sounds overlapped.
"stranger--"
It was very difficult and painful for them to swim upstream, but now the plane door was behind them and it was very easy for them to swim towards them along the river.
Most of the figures threw themselves on the fuselage of the plane, clinging to it with their hands. Only a few of them did not care about these people who should not be here. They turned their heads indifferently and numbly and continued to swim upstream step by step in this blood-yellow river with no end in sight.
"Ah! Help!"
"Ghost, run!"
"Oh my god, help me!!!"
Everyone in front of the cabin door scattered like birds and beasts, running towards the cabin, not daring to stay at the door any longer.
“Bang!”
The captain stayed behind, trembling, and slammed the cabin door shut.
"stranger--"
"stranger!!"
Shadowy figures kept making resentful roars, surrounding the huge plane, stretching out their hands and dragging the plane under the blood-colored river.
Their numbers were too small and they originally had no impact on the plane. However, as more and more figures walked towards this side in the river, they continued to join them and actually surrounded the huge plane. Countless hands clung to the plane, trying to pull the people on the plane into the river and drown them.
The fuselage began to shake unsteadily on the river surface, and seemed to... actually sink a little.
The faces of those figures showed jealousy, madness, and twisted expressions of pleasure.
"Fuck! These ghost things!" The young man with a crew cut leaned on the edge of the seat, trying to steady himself in the shaking cabin, and looked at the monsters outside the window in anger.
"They can actually pull the plane down! Oh my god! No way, it won't sink, right?"
"Wow, mom, I'm so scared..."
"Are you a ghost who follows the crowd? Come on, I have no grudge against you."
"What should we do? They want us to die!"
"Ah, this world is so fantastic... I need to call my mom. I still have a lot of money in my bank card. I need to tell them the password..."
"Help! I don't want to die. Is there anyone who can catch ghosts? Please save us, wuwuwu..."
"Is this really the underworld? Is this river the Forgotten River? Wait a minute, let me take a picture first!"
“Beep…beep…beep…”
Someone immediately called for help, and the sound of the phone being connected was heard.
"Hello, this is the Yaoyaoling Alarm Center. Do you need any help?"
“Hey Yaoyaoling, help! Come and save us, there are so many ghosts here, we are going to die…”
After a series of words came out of his mouth, the person who called was suddenly stunned.
"Hello? How are you? Are you still there?" A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone.
The person who made the call put the phone away, looked at the screen in disbelief, then looked at the surroundings and the monsters outside the plane.
There is actually a signal and I can make a call?
The world is so magical...
The fuselage suddenly shook violently again.
"It's over, the plane is going to sink and we are all going to die!" someone shouted.
"I'm still young and don't want to die, why me?"
There was a sudden burst of crying and cursing in the cabin.
"What bad luck! The doll pendant is also missing. Are we really going to die here? Zimo, it's all my fault. If you hadn't accompanied me to Q Province, you wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing..."
"Don't think about it." Zimo rubbed GG's head, his eyes firm and gentle.
"Put on your life jacket first, and try it later...swim across this river!"
"But there are so many in the river..."
Before he could finish his words, something unexpected happened outside the window.
"Look! What is that?"
"……fire?"
"This color of fire... I must have had a nightmare. I hope everything will be fine once I wake up..."
"Hahaha, these damn ugly things are all burned to death!"
“I want to take a picture of this magnificent spectacle!”
"What time is it and you're still clapping...are you poisonous?"
“Are we saved?”
Countless ghosts and monsters let out shrill screams, thrilling, sharp and piercing, and the sound lingered for a long time above the blood-yellow rushing river.
The figures seemed to be in pain right through their bones and souls. Everyone who heard the sound couldn't help but tremble all over, get goose bumps, have splitting headaches, feel stuffy and retching in their chests, and feel indescribable discomfort in their hearts.
There was a raging fire burning around the figures, quickly burning them to ashes, leaving no trace of black ash.
The fire was silver-white in color, and burned brighter and brighter in the blood-colored river, with no sign of being extinguished by the water.
Most of the figures that were crowded in the water just now suddenly disappeared, leaving only a small number of people who ran fast and were not touched by the flames. Their blurry eyes stared viciously at the huge plane with resentment on their faces, but they quickly walked away and dared not move forward again.
"Zimo! Does that fire... look like it's coming from the puppet pendant?"
GG stared out the window, his large brown eyes shining brightly in the firelight.
"It's not like it. This flame is indeed his. All the characteristics match."
"Great! He's still here. I thought, I thought he left."
Outside the window, around the fuselage of the plane, those figures that could be burned were all devoured, and the rest had long since disappeared, but the silver-white flames did not stop, burning more and more vigorously, the flames danced wildly, the arrogance became more and more arrogant, and it became more and more occupied by the river surface...
It seemed to be constantly devouring the blood-red river water.
The puppet pendant mentioned by GG was sitting cross-legged on the top of the plane, with one hand supporting his cheek, and a shining dagger spinning in the other hand. His brown eyes were staring in a daze at the large patch of blood-red and gorgeous Lycoris radiata on the river bank.
Huangquan, Wangchuan River, Bianhua...
A place he had never been to before and which only existed in legends. Such a colorful and wonderful world...wasn't that what he was pursuing in his dream of traveling through time?
The dazzling dagger that was spinning in his hand suddenly stopped. Luo Zheyu's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked up into the distance.
"Who destroyed my Forgotten River——"
A thunderous sound rolled in from the horizon, resounding between heaven and earth. The voice was majestic and dignified. It was just a question from a thousand miles away, but it carried a majestic and awe-inspiring momentum.
The sound shocked the entire world into silence. Even the rushing water in the Forgetful River paused for a moment, not to mention the countless ghosts and monsters.
All things here are subject to it.
After asking this question, the voice fell silent and said no more.
However, Luo Zheyu knew that the owner of that voice was definitely not just asking casually, and the other party would most likely respond quickly.
Not to mention how shocked everyone in the cabin was, Luo Zheyu jumped down from the top and hammered the cabin door, making it make a loud clanging sound.
After a while, the crew members cautiously opened a crack and hid behind the cabin door like frightened rabbits, looking at Luo Zheyu anxiously and fearfully.
"Now, quickly notify everyone to get out of the river."
"Ah? Oh! Okay, okay." The man was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and nodded quickly.
"Wait a moment." The co-pilot next to him suddenly leaned over and approached the cabin door which was slightly opened.
"Can't we just stay on the plane? Who knows what dangers might be out there."
Luo Zheyu glanced at him, his sharp brown eyes sliding across him.
The co-pilot couldn't help but flinch.
"Sure," he replied.
"I'll only wait ten minutes. If you don't want to get off the plane, you can stay."
After saying that, he jumped onto the top of the plane again, not wanting to say more.
The co-pilot thought about it and still didn't dare to stop him.
All functions on the plane were completely unusable. Even though the passengers told us that we could still contact the real world, the communication equipment on the plane suddenly broke down and could not even be turned on. Only small electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers in the hands of the passengers were still usable.
It's just that the signal has become not so good.
The elderly, children and the injured first sat on the life raft, wandered in the blood-yellow river to the shore, and then stood among the large patches of bright red red spider lilies, waiting for the people behind to be brought over by the life raft.
The water in the Wangchuan River was turbid and had a strange color. It gave off a strong strange smell, like the smell of decay. The water was rushing and boiling, and no one knew how deep it was. At this time, there was a strange silver-white flame burning in it. Everyone relied on the life raft to cross the river obediently, and no one dared to go down to the river to take a dip.
Luo Zheyu stood by the cabin door, with silver-white flames surrounding him. He was tall and slender, dressed in black, with his face hidden, revealing only a pair of brown eyes, staring at everyone quietly.
There seemed to be a sharp knife hidden in his eyes, piercing people's hearts. Just standing there, he was like a sword unsheathed, with its edge exposed.
Those who had not yet boarded the life raft occasionally looked up at him, but before he could look back, they quickly lowered their heads.
Looking at such a sharp person at this moment unexpectedly makes people feel at ease.
In less than ten minutes, with the cooperation of more than 200 people on the plane, everyone got ashore on the life raft.
There were also people who didn't want to get off the plane. When they saw everyone leaving, they couldn't sit still and had to get off the plane together.
