Chapter 438: Crow Monster Fish
When we first stepped on the boat, we didn't notice it, but after we had paddled for several meters, we felt the chill coming from the lake.
It was a kind of skin coolness, like we were paddling through a glacier.
I touched my arm coldly, and a white mist came out of my mouth and nose.
Xu Zixuan and Liu Kai behind him were also shivering.
Xu Zixuan is a girl, her body is cold and afraid of cold, Liu Kai's broken arm can be regarded as a sick number, after I thought about it, I began to rummage in the storage ring.
I vaguely remember that in the ring of Wu Qingshan of the Lingshan Sect, there were several sets of spare robes.
The backwater lake we are staying in is a world forged by the Heavenly Wolf, and it is deserted, and I believe that even if they wear the robes of their Lingshan Sect, no one will find out.
So, I decisively took out the three white robes and handed them to Xu Zixuan and Liu Kai respectively.
This Lingshan Sect Master-level robe is extraordinarily warm to wear, it seems to be as thin as a veil, but it has the effect of keeping warm.
I felt much better when I put it on.
Liu Kai couldn't help but say at the stern: "I'm going, why is it so cold?"
Xu Zixuan followed and said: "This is not ordinary cold, how can this cold feel a bit like yin qi." ”
"Xiao, do you still remember, when we were in the orphanage behind the school before, did we have a sense of déjà vu?"
Liu Kai scratched his head irritably, and cried: "What do you mean?
I glanced back at Xu Zixuan, he was right, last time in the orphanage, we were surrounded by those little ghosts, and the chill on our bodies was exactly the same as now.
But what makes me wonder is that we are on the surface of the lake, those yin spirits...... A word immediately crossed my mind.
I didn't speak, Liu Kai had already blurted out in panic: "Is there a ...... Kelpie. ”
As he spoke, he propped one hand on the edge of the boat in a panic as he peered underwater.
Because of his movements, the small wooden boat was a little unstable and swayed from side to side, which was particularly scary in this bottomless water.
Xu Zixuan immediately warned coldly: "You sit honestly for me, believe it or not, I'll kick you down immediately!"
Although Liu Kai was afraid, he still listened to Xu Zixuan's words, and quickly sat up straight and stopped talking.
I sat on the bow of the boat with my back to them, and the word water ghost lingered in my head.
I couldn't help but drift my eyes underwater.
The water on the surface of this lake seems to be clear, but there is no bottom to be seen.
Not to mention what you want to see, you can't even see fish, shrimp, aquatic plants and other things, like a still fake lake in a painting.
Moyo had been gliding on the boat for ten minutes, and when I saw that there was always a thick fog ahead, I looked back, only to find that the shore behind me had long since disappeared.
Instead, there was a thick fog, and visibility was always tens of meters away.
Because the temperature is getting lower and lower, we can only keep paddling to move our muscles and bones.
Zixuan and Liu Kai behind him exchanged oars with each other, and everyone was too lazy to speak for a while.
The scene of the stagnant lake that has not changed gives us the illusion of staying where we are and working in vain.
No one spoke, and morale was getting lower.
At this moment, I suddenly heard Liu Kai at the end of the bed shouting in surprise: "Look ahead, is that an ancient tree?"
I hurriedly looked at it, and sure enough, in the thick fog in front of me, there was a big tree standing faintly.
I don't bother to look at the map again, so as not to be disappointed again.
I said directly:
"Yes! This is it! We've finally found the place marked on the map, everyone, work hard!"
With a goal, everyone's confidence is also there, and the three of them rowed the wooden boat, gradually increasing their speed.
The goal is getting closer and closer, and we can see the face of the tree clearly.
The tree seemed to have been washed out of thin air, and it was fifteen meters tall.
The whole body is black, the trunk is twisted and twisted, withered and drooping, there is no leaf left, it looks lifeless, and even has a strange feeling.
According to the directions given on the Sirius map, we need to make a left row around the tree.
When we were still five or six meters away from the big tree, I saw that it was different, and each branch of it was actually full of dense black crows.
However, these black crows were extremely thin, and the black feathers on their bodies no longer seemed to match their thin bodies, and they clung to the branches with only two skinny claws, and did not move, nor fly, nor chirp.
Xu Zixuan was behind me and said suspiciously: "Why are those crows standing on the trees, one by one, listless?"
I also thought it was strange that if it weren't for a few skinny crows that moved around from time to time, I would have thought they were just specimens.
At that moment, a skinny, skinny crow standing in the treetops fell headfirst down to the surface of the lake as if asleep.
Halfway through the fall, he suddenly woke up, and hurriedly flapped his wings and struggled up, but it seemed that his strength was extremely weak, and he seemed to have no strength to fly.
At the same time, there was a sudden splash on the calm surface of the lake, and an animal that was swishing like a fish, with its long mouth showing sharp fangs, jumped up and swallowed the crow directly into its mouth.
After swallowing the crow, the gray monster fish burrowed into the water and disappeared in an instant.
It turns out that there are still living creatures in the water of this dead lake......
In just two meters of our sliding forward, there were suddenly gray strange fish on the entire lake.
The fish range in size from large to small, some the size of a dolphin to the size of a palm, and they all share the same characteristics, with black mud and large mouths full of sharp fangs.
As if waiting for feeding, they instantly gathered under the ancient trees, kept jumping out of the water, and then sank again.
Maybe it's because the strange fish just now tasted the sweetness, and more and more strange fish jumped out of the water.
And the crow in the old tree was so frightened that he did not dare to speak, and I had never seen such a low-voiced crow, and he did not even dare to call, but dared to clasp his paws tightly to the branches.
The lake, which was calm just now, is unusually lively at the moment, and the sudden change makes me a little uncomfortable.
There were more and more of these strange fish, and several of them began to jump around our boat.
As we slowly paddled forward, one of the smaller strange fish unexpectedly jumped onto our boat.
Although the fish is small, the sharp teeth in the mouth do not stop biting around.
Xu Zixuan decisively cut the fish in two, the fish had no blood, and the internal organs seemed to be rotten, blue-black, and the stench was incomparable.
The head and tail of the fish still did not stop on the board, jumping around, and finally jumped in front of Liu Kai.
With a disgusted face, he lifted it with his fingers and threw it into the lake.
I hurriedly shouted to stop: "Wait, don't throw it!"
Unfortunately, it was too late, and after the cut fish was thrown into the lake, it instantly attracted other strange fish next to it to scramble and splash.
The most important thing is that the monsters on the lake that originally targeted the ancient tree crows have all been transformed into our small wooden boats.
Almost all the strange fish, big and small, gathered close to us, and they looked like they were in a group and densely packed.
Some of the big monster fish are a little farther away, and you can see the sharp shark fins gliding on the surface of the lake at great speed.
Seeing that the situation was wrong and that there was no way to remedy it, I swung the oars vigorously and shouted loudly: "Paddle hard, go forward......"
Before he finished speaking, he felt that something suddenly hit him under the small wooden boat.
The small wooden boat slammed up, and the water splashed up, and my whole body fell backwards in an instant.
