Chapter 51: Shocking waves hit the shore

The carriage rumbled out of the city gate.

In the carriage, Huamei and Chen Youniao sat together naturally. The girl didn't seem to be too excited about going out to play, and her expression was calm.

As the name suggests, Haidai County is close to the sea and there is plenty of water around the city. There are docks outside the four city gates.

When Chen Youniao and Uncle Wang returned from the Laoshan Taoist Temple, they took the waterway and landed at Fengyanjin.

Huamei likes peace and quiet, but the major docks are busy with business travelers and people coming and going. Therefore, this trip does not go to the ferry, but to other places, as long as it is close to the water.

Wangcai knew the way, so he drove out of the city and walked out of a long official road, then turned right and headed toward the countryside. After walking for about half an hour, the carriage stopped.

"Master, not far ahead is Daihe."

Daihe is a main river that surrounds Haidai County. It is said that the widest point is more than ten feet, which can be called a big river. The river flows mightily and finally flows into the ocean.

After returning from Mount Laoshan, what he saw and heard on the way for more than ten days, Chen Youniao has already realized the vastness and splendor of this world, with its mountains and rivers, which are unusual. After all, this is a magnificent world where one can practice and seek immortality.

This is still within the area ruled by the dynasty, but outside the area, the place where the great monsters are entrenched, and it is unknown how vast and vast it is.

Of course, those places are definitely not accessible to ordinary people. Putting aside the dangers, just the distance to get there is daunting.

Chen Youniao and Huamei got off the carriage. Huamei stopped, closed his eyes, and suddenly took a long breath, with a look of enjoyment on his face.

"Is the air here particularly fresh?"

Chen Youniao thought suspiciously and sniffed, but found nothing special. In Haidai County, since there are no emissions from mechanized industrialization, the air in the city is also quite good.

Thrushing eyebrows can be done with just a few steps.

Chen Youniao saw that there was only a small path ahead and it was difficult for the carriage to move, so he ordered Wangcai to wait here and guard the carriage.

Wangcai obeyed the order, sat on the shaft of the car, took out a bag of soy sauce jerky, and ate it leisurely. He didn't know what Chen Youniao brought Huamei here for. They were probably touring the mountains and rivers, which all scholars like.

This bite.

But, is my young master a scholar or a monk?

It should be said that he has both, he is both civil and military, and he is very capable. Even in the wilderness, he is not afraid of accidents.

This place is not close to a village and is sparsely populated. The further you go in, the more deserted it becomes, and the road gradually disappears.

Chen Youniao walked in front to open the way. He was so strong that the weeds and shrubs broke wherever his footsteps passed.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to a river beach. There was sand and soil, and more stones, large and mottled in color and shape.

Looking ahead, we can see a river flowing with a rolling flow. The water quality is not turbid, and clusters of reeds are growing luxuriantly beside the water.

"There must be many fish in this water..."

Chen Youniao thought inexplicably.

Wow!

Gurgling!

Suddenly the wind picked up, and the originally peaceful water suddenly became agitated, with waves forming, making turbulent sounds one after another.

"strangeness!"

Chen Youniao quickly raised his head to look at the sky.

In this season, the climate is unpredictable, the wind and rain are unpredictable, and you will fall out at any time. Fortunately, the sky is still clear and the sun is shining brightly, but the wind is blowing in the river beach area.

It's not unusual for the wind to be strong along the river.

The thrush showed joy, stepped forward, and soon came to the water's edge.

Seeing the strong waves in the river, Chen Youniao quickly reminded: "Thrush, don't go too close, be careful of being splashed by the water."

Huamei looked back and smiled slightly: "No."

Chen Youniao was worried. Wind and waves can be big or small. Sometimes people and animals may look harmless, but a sudden wave can sweep people away. There are countless such accidents. So he followed closely and met Huamei.

Keep your distance, and if something unexpected happens, you can immediately reach out and catch him.

Thrush stood by the water, closed his eyes and spread his hands, as if he wanted to embrace the water.

Chen Youniao peeked at her with a strange look on her face, wondering if this girl liked water very much. Otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a gesture. It was quite natural and without any pretense.

Liking water is a normal preference, or does Thrush want to take a bath in the river?

Suddenly, Huamei said: "Brother, I want to be alone for a while."

Chen Youniao touched his chin: "Are you sure? Alone?"

Huamei nodded, his eyes clear.

Although Chen Youniao was still a little worried, now that she had said so, she pondered for a moment and warned: "Then be careful and don't get too close to the water."

After that, he walked away and walked about ten steps. He wanted to stop here when he heard Huamei shouting: "Go further to the outside of the river beach."

Yes, listening to this, I dare say she really wanted to take a bath in the water, so she had to drive others away.

But, is such a big river a suitable place for bathing?

Chen Youniao had no choice but to walk far away, turned a corner, and when he got outside, he could no longer see the scene by the river. He couldn't sneak back and look back, lest the thrush would find him peeping, which would be embarrassing.

Deep down in his heart, he had long suspected Huamei's identity and did not treat her as an ordinary person.

Today, it was Huamei who asked to go out of the city for a walk by the water; now, she asked to be alone.

In this case, meet her request.

Chen Youniao glanced around, walked to the foot of a tree, stood in the shade, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Rumble!

After a while, there was a loud noise from the riverside, like the sound of a stormy wave hitting the shore and hitting the rocks.

Chen Youniao's heart moved. From the sounds and movements, he could deduce that this wave must be very shocking.

So, is it a strong wind?

Chen Youniao suppressed the urge to rush over to see what was going on and calmed down.

Rumble!

The sound of rolling waves was endless, as if a strong wind had hit the sea, setting off waves of turbulent waves.

Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I could hear the ferocity and majesty of it from the sound.

It's just that the momentum seemed erratic, moving from far to near and then moving away with the wind, as if it encompassed a large section of the river.

This time, Chen Youniao was even more uncertain.

What happened?

Although Daihe is a major water vein under the jurisdiction of Haidai County, in terms of size, it is nothing. Anyway, compared with Nayi River, it is far inferior. Daihe is even more important for business travelers entering and leaving Haidai County.

It must pass through the waterway to travel from south to north. It is quite prosperous and has been running for hundreds of years. It is a famous water trade route.

Since it is a trade route, it must first be kept peaceful and calm.

But the sound of the waves I hear now is a bit off.

Chen Youniao thought about it several times and felt that he couldn't wait here helplessly. Just as he was thinking about turning back and going in to take a closer look, he heard rustling footsteps and Huamei dressed in white walked out. She walked lightly and had a smile on her face.
