The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 494
Chapter 494 Swim Up (Down)
“Let me see how you swim up,” said Gao Ye.
Lei Bao said, “Be careful.”
Lei Xingfeng laughed and said, “It’s fine. It’s very simple. Everyone can learn it as soon as they learn it.”
As he spoke, Lei Xingfeng leaned against the ground. Because the bridge deck was inclined at an angle of sixty degrees, Lei Xingfeng felt as if he was leaning back in his chair. His face was facing the outside. He opened his hands and his body suddenly jumped up. This was the power of flight. He twisted his waist and swam up like a big fish. In an instant, he rose to a height of a hundred meters. The ground was filled with astonishment.
This was the best demonstration. Soon, someone learned it and swam up. Lei Xingfeng quickly landed. “That’s it,” he said.
The power of role models was boundless. A large number of cultivators began to learn to swim up. From below, they saw dense crowds of people swimming up against the erected bridge deck. It was simply spectacular to the extreme.
When Wu Yang returned, he said, “Have you found a way to go up?”
“The erected deck has a layer of defense of half a meter, so it can fly up. Of course, your body can’t exceed half a meter. Otherwise, I don’t know what kind of danger there is,” said Lei Xingfeng.
Wu Yang said, “Come with me to see Patriarch Huai Cheng.”
Lei Xingfeng nodded in agreement. There were certain flaws in this method. He needed to communicate with the Patriarch and pass it on. As for those impatient cultivators, Lei Xingfeng could not control them. He understood the reason why they were not in their positions and did not seek their own government.
Very quickly, the four of them arrived in front of Patriarch Huai Cheng. Patriarch Huai Cheng was still looking at the erected bridge deck, which was already densely packed with people.
Wu Yang said briefly. He and Patriarch Huai Cheng were considered friends, so he came to tell them the key. Patriarch Huai Cheng immediately ordered everyone to come down. He said, “Wu Yang, thanks to you, otherwise we would have been passive.”
Wu Yang said, “This is A Feng’s credit. It’s the secret he discovered.”
Patriarch Huai Cheng said, “Oh, Ah Feng, Heavenly Lord, not bad child, do you have any suggestions?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Two, one is the protection of the bridge deck, “It’s only half a meter. No one can swim more than half a meter. Otherwise, there’s no danger. I’m not sure. The other thing is to organize people to hang chains on the pillars in the middle. I don’t know how tall they are. If the chains hang down, then people can rest for a while. There’s a lack of food. Everyone has problems with their physical strength.”
Patriarch Huai Cheng’s eyes were filled with admiration. The surrounding Patriarchs also nodded their heads repeatedly. This method was relatively safe and feasible. Patriarch Huai Cheng said, “Very good, let’s do this.”
Only then did Wu Yang leave with a few people.
As he walked, Lei Xingfeng said, “The Patriarch is also a lot more haggard.”
Wu Yang said, “Of course, there is a lot of pressure. The Patriarch is also a human, so he will be angry and anxious.”
Returning to the temporary camp, Lei Xingfeng and the others waited for arrangements.
… … … …
Even with the trick of Lei Xingfeng swimming up, cultivators still suffered heavy casualties. Some of the cultivators who swam high up suddenly ran out of energy and slid down the bridge. This situation was quite frequent. Those who were lucky were brought down, and those who were unlucky were also brought down. They gathered more and more. In the end, they were smashed down. It was easy to kill and injure a hundred people at a time.
Later on, there was a Heavenly Monarch in charge. According to the rules, it was not like the chaos at the beginning. It was better to go up in a swarm. Besides, ordinary people were more troublesome. Cultivators brought their families to swim up. This took a lot of time and energy. Fortunately, there were chains hanging down. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to go up.
Soon it was Lei Xingfeng’s turn, However, the giant metal spider had no choice but to give up, This thing definitely wouldn’t go up. He took off the food from the big spider and Lei Xingfeng didn’t put it away anymore. Instead, he directly distributed it to everyone and said, “This is ten days’ worth of food. Save yourself some food. The big spider must give up. In addition, it’s best to bring people up. It’s best to accompany someone else. At least someone will lend a helping hand when it’s dangerous.”
Lei Xingfeng continued, “Uncle Gao and I will open the way ahead. Finally, Grandmaster and my grandfather will be cut off. The others, Lord will be in the periphery, and Daoist Master and his family will be in the middle. Keep a certain distance. Let’s go!”
Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye were in the front, swim up first, and then everyone followed. Lord was in charge of the security on both sides, Wu Yang and Lei Bao were in charge of the rescue, because they were at the bottom, while Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye were in charge of clearing the road.
Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye had to be clear about anything that fell. Regardless of whether it was people or objects, it was really not a time for compassion. For the sake of the safety of the people below, they had to make a move. Of course, if they could save it, Lei Xingfeng would also help. However, Gao Ye didn’t care. Anything that fell or slipped down was his target.
The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, were like two flexible big fish, swiftly swimming upwards. Soon, they caught up to the group of people in front of them. Gao Ye shouted, “Get out of the way ahead! Get out of the way!”
Just as the upper echelons wanted to curse, they immediately realized that something was wrong. Below them were two Heavenly Monarchs, swimming towards the two sides in horror.
Lei Xingfeng had an iron chain in his hand, and Gao Ye also had one. Once they encountered trouble, this thing could save people and kill people. It was definitely the best weapon.
The little hammer and the hammer held hands. An Ruqing and Bai Yurun also held hands. Fei Nan was more miserable. He was sturdier than the three of them. What was most important was that his chest was only half a meter thick.
As for La Zi, it was hard. There were ordinary people in his secret sect, so he had to be brought up by the subordinates of the secret sect, and he needed reinforcements at any time.
The easiest ones were Wu Yang and Lei Bao. As long as there was nothing going on above, the two of them would be fine. They leisurely swam up. Both of them were extremely powerful. They were not afraid of such a slope and length, nor did they care about this little danger.
Similarly, Wu Yang and Lei Bao both had an iron chain in their hands. This thing must be indispensable.
Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye looked down at the ant-like crowd, and Lei Xingfeng said, “I wonder how many people will be left this time.”
Gao Ye said, “If you don’t say half, at least a quarter of the people won’t go!”
“There won’t be that many,” said Lei Xingfeng.
Gao Ye said, “You let a five-ringed true body swim up?”
Lei Xingfeng said, “I know they can’t fly, but they have companions to bring up, right? They are the foundation of Mystery Sect. Without the foundation, how can Mystery Sect develop?”
Gao Ye said, “What the f*ck is the foundation? I can’t even protect my own life. What about the foundation? The lives of others are not friends or relatives. Who cares?” These words carried the aura of a dead fellow daoist, the Undying Poverty Dao.
Suddenly, Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye cried out in alarm. They turned their heads and saw a bunch of people sliding down. The two of them were at their positions.
Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye exchanged a glance. The chains in their hands had already been raised. After all, they weren’t killing people, so the two chains were like two long spears that directly pushed away the people who had slipped down.
Everyone knew that once it slipped down, if there was no one to save it, it would really kill them. The people below could no longer see it clearly. It was full of needle-tips and black dots. Even the abandoned spider was only the size of an ant.
Lei Xingfeng estimated that it was at least two thousand meters high. As for whether it was or not, God knew.
The bridge deck gradually grew taller and taller. Gradually, the bridge deck was as thin as a needle. Lei Xingfeng felt a chill run down his spine. This was too damn tall. Especially when the surrounding starlight was flickering, it was so shocking that he didn’t know where to go or what to do.
Lei Xingfeng and Gao Ye grabbed the pillars in the middle of the bridges, chained them, and let the people below rest. Lei Xingfeng also hung from them, and he said, “What is that?”
Gao Ye said, “I don’t know, it’s like a ribbon …”
Behind the bridge, a ribbon of light that was as long as a ribbon quietly lay in the air, or rather, in the universe. However, this universe was different from Lei Xingfeng’s cognition. Even if Lei Xingfeng saw this ribbon, he still felt that it was very beautiful.
Suddenly, Lei Xingfeng understood. “This bridge seems to be going around the ribbon!” He said.
Gao Ye looked carefully and reacted, “It’s really like this. If we follow the original position, this bridge will definitely be worn into the ribbon. From the looks of it, this ribbon is very dangerous.”
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “No matter how dangerous it is, it won’t affect this place.”
The two of them chatted and laughed freely. However, the others were more miserable. They were panting and hanging on the chains. Looking down, they couldn’t help but tremble in their hearts. It was too high. Everyone felt helpless. As for ordinary people, they were already blindfolded. They couldn’t even look at them. If they really showed them, they would at least scare some people to death.
Fei Nan directly hung on a pillar. If he hung on the chain, he would suspect that the chain would be able to hold on. His rapid breathing finally subsided. Everyone felt their mouths dry, and they hurriedly drank water. At the same time, they were eating some dry food and replenishing it slightly.
The few Heavenly Monarchs also drank water and ate dry rations. This consumption was indeed a bit large, but they could still look at ease. After all, their strength bases were different.
Rest should be moderate. We absolutely can’t rest for long. Of course, we can’t rest for long enough. We must grasp this degree. Lei Xingfeng calculated for a while and said, “Let’s go, work harder. We will arrive soon!” Actually, he was also talking nonsense, he didn’t even know where to stand.
However, this stimulated their morale, and the group of people swam upwards once again.
A few of the exhausted ones slid down and were entangled by Elder Thunder or Wu Yang’s chains, then dragged upwards.
After an unknown amount of time, he rested seven times. The interval between rests was shorter and shorter. Just as everyone was about to despair, he finally climbed to the top.
After coming up, everyone was paralyzed. All of them were lying on the ground pretending to be dead dogs. No one could get up. Even Lei Xingfeng and the others were lying on the ground.
