Chapter 74 (1/2)
Qin Mu was bewildered, ”Why isn't granny's back hunched any around excitedly on her bed…”
The next day, Qin Mu woke up and realized Granny Si wasn't in her room anymore, but breakfast was already prepared
The youth washed up and ate breakfast before going downstairs to look for Granny Si and Blind Both of thes and fabric they had bought onto the cart
What puzzled Qin Mu was that Blind was harnessing three bullocks in front of the cart There were also another three big bullocks following behind the cow cart
All six bullocks looked at Qin Mu and fear could be seen in their eyes as they shi+vered
”Granny, didn't we sold all six cows?” Qin Mu questioned
Granny Si yawned and slowly said, ”I siht, therefore, granny went out and bought another six cows”
Qin Mu was skeptical and saw the six big bullocks shaking their heads He didn't knohat they were trying to say as they could only moo
It was still earlywhen the cow cart was driven out of the city There were already soers who ca to return to their villages, hoping that they could htfall
Qin Mu drove the cart to the pier and the river was already churning There were nu the River Carriers Beside the shore, the big-nosed River Carriers were enjoying the ss of sers ere returning fro trip
Blind also offered incenses at the riverside to summon a River Carrier He fed it some food and Qin Mu drove the cow cart onto the back of the River Carrier The huge beast started to swim upstream
The river flowed majestically from the west to the east When they ca upstreaht to be very strong
However, the River Carrier's speed was no slower than when it was floating down With this speed, they only need to rest a night at Grande the next day
Unknowingly, they had traveled seventeen htly Carrying her basket, she smiled and said, ”My work is here Blind, you two move on ahead”
Blind nodded and warned, ”Be careful”
Granny Si leaped and suddenly vanished without a trace
Qin Mu looked upwards and saw Granny Si in the air without dropping down for quite a long time
Blind, on the other hand, was used to it and was not concerned as he stood upright with his cane, facing the wind
Not long after, Qin Mu suddenly saw that in the sky behind them, a cloud suddenly became blood red bloody rain then started to pour fro River scarlet red
”What happened in the sky?”
Just as he was thinking about it, a head dropped down from the bloody cloud and into the river
Qin Mu's hair stood on their ends He saw the face clearly the instant the head had fallen into the river It was the yellow-faced woman as in City Lord's Manor!
Qin Mu raised his head What exactly happened up in that cloud?
That rain came quickly and went away quickly as well The bloody rain that stained the river red seemed like it was only an illusion As the river water flowed downstreaained it clarity
Qin Mu washed off the blood stains on his body He waited for quite some time but Granny Si still didn't appear However, Blind was still calhtest worried
Right at this moment, Qin Mu suddenly felt a wave of force that ing River, it orld-shaking and extre Even the River Carrier under their feet became uneasy and increased its speed to swim upstream
Blind's ears suddenly twitched and he shouted, ”Mu'er, get a stable footing and don't fall into the river!”
Qin Mu irew roots into the back of the River Carrier Only now did he hear a peculiar whooshi+ng sound co him dumbstruck as he turned his head to have a look
He could only see the huge river behind theher rapidly The river was actually flowing in reverse from downstream to upstream!
At this moment, the river surface downstream was already thirty yards over both sides of the shore As the towering snohite waves surged forth, it ca doards them!
The huge waves got closer and closer to them and the water splashed frantically towards both sides, flooding the dense forest on both shores The terrifying waves surged forth and the whooshi+ng sound turned into a world-shaking rumble as if a few hundred thunderclaps had broken out in a valley!
Qin Mu felt a chill down his spine as he saw the excessive splashes froe hand This hand was almost as wide as the river surface as it pushed mercilessly from downstream up!
Blind remained cal situation behind them
The huge hand formed by the river water soon reached three hundred yards behind thee body of water dispersed to its surroundings The waves surging forward raised their River Carrier thirty yards into the sky before landing back down again
