"Click...... Click...... Sudden ......"

Before the sand carrier could get out of the boiling waters, the engine suddenly made a loud noise, and the speed of the whole ship slowed down instantly.

"Damn! The propeller seems to be stuck! Lao Lu glanced at the stern of the boat, and sure enough, the splash that was originally made when the propeller rotated had disappeared.

This is probably what the so-called "blessing is incomparable, and disaster is not a one-way street", once the sand carrier loses power, they will not be able to leave this dead water no matter what.

"I'll fix it! You control the rudder! Don't let the boat capsize! Qi Lin said loudly, carrying the harpoon and running directly to the stern.

The sand carrier has long been not as stable as before, countless mutant fish are fighting at the bottom of the boat and on the side of the boat, and from time to time they hit the hull and make a muffled "dong dong" sound, and the whole boat has been swaying in the dark river like a cradle, and it seems that it will roll over at any time.

Qi Lin rushed to the stern of the boat in one breath, and at a glance, sure enough, a huge fish corpse was stuck in the blades of the propeller, the length of this fish corpse was one and a half meters long, and the back half of the body was gnawed so that only Sen Sen's white bones remained, and on the remaining part of the flesh, many small mutant fish the size of a palm, but with fierce and abnormality, were still biting on it, constantly tearing off pieces of scales and minced flesh from the corpse.

A large amount of dirty blood was mixed with the dark river water, and the visibility was extremely low, except for the bones of this big fish, Qi Lin couldn't see anything below, but it was certain that there was definitely more than the skeleton of this fish stuck in the propeller.

Because with the power of the propeller, the sharp metal blades can easily cut the spine of this strange fish, and there must be something else stuck underneath in a place that cannot be seen in the water.

"What a nuisance...... It would have been better to go through formal channels if I had known earlier......"

Qi Lin muttered, and the harpoon in his hand stabbed out like lightning, just inserting it into the skull of the big fish, and with a forceful flick of it, the skeleton of the big fish was directly pulled out by Qi Lin from between the paddles!

"So much?!"

The harpoon and the skeleton of the big fish stirred the dirty blood in the river, and Qi Lin saw clearly that under the propeller, there were at least seven or eight mutant fish, several of which were dead, and a few were still struggling violently.

In addition to the mutant fish, a large number of tough aquatic plants have wrapped the paddle blades into a strong knot, in fact, the corpses of mutant fish alone can never get the paddle blades stuck, and these black-brown aquatic weeds are the main culprits of the sand carrier's loss of power.

"Give me a dagger! Preferably a paratrooper knife! Qi Lin turned his head and shouted loudly to Lao Lu.

Harpoons are good against mutant fish, but they are useless against slippery and tough aquatic plants.

Hearing Qi Lin's shout, Lao Lu immediately rummaged under the console for a while, and after a while, he threw a black knife at Qi Lin.

Qi Lin took it and took it out, this is a Type 99 paratrooper knife made in China, the standard equipment of the Huaxia Airborne Forces, the zigzag blade can easily cut the high-strength nylon paracord, and a row of denser sawtooth teeth on the back of the knife can even be sawed off by the aluminum shell and metal cable of the aircraft, and it is not a problem to deal with aquatic plants.

Tie the Type 99 paratrooper knife to the front end of the harpoon with a rope, because of the presence of barbs at the front end of the harpoon, Qi Lin did not have to worry about the possibility of the paratrooper knife slipping.

Fixing the paratrooper knife, Qi Lin grabbed a metal railing at the stern of the boat with one hand, pressed his feet against the inner edge of the ship's side, and most of his body leaned out of the boat, piercing the harpoon in his other hand into the water.

With the sharp serrated blade cutting back and forth, the aquatic plants wrapped around the propeller turned into splinters, and the propeller began to rotate again.

"Well done! The engine is back in power! Lao Lu shouted excitedly, a pair of calloused hands clutched the rudder of the ship, and the sand carrier finally began to speed up.

But at this moment, two palm-sized mutant monster fish suddenly jumped out of the water, one of them pounced on Qi Lin, and the other went straight to Lao Lu, who was four or five meters away from the side of the ship.

Qi Lin threw away the harpoon in his hand, and with a volley in the air, he grabbed the mutant monster fish in his hand, and pinched it hard, directly pinching its head to pieces.

But Lao Lu couldn't dodge, maybe he underestimated the jumping power of this small mutant fish, or maybe he was too old to keep up with his body's reaction, and the mutant fish hit him head-on, and his sharp teeth directly bit a bloody hole in Lao Lu's throat!

Lao Lu subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch the fish, but the scales on the fish were too slippery, and after a little slipping, he drilled into Lao Lu's throat along the bloody hole that he bitten out-

"Grass!"

Qi Lin threw the small fish corpse in his hand hard, and then ran to Lao Lu, who was already kneeling on the ground, and used his fingers to clamp the exposed tail of the mutant fish and pull it out of Lao Lu's throat.

When the mutant fish was pulled out, a large amount of minced meat and human tissue, as well as more blood, were also brought out.

The smell of blood greatly irritated the mutant fish, and in a matter of seconds, it bit off the neck artery of Lao Lu's trachea, and blood rushed out of the wound like a high-pressure water gun.

At this time, the guys who were hiding in the cabin also ran out of it, but they were helpless in the face of Lao Lu, who was lying in a pool of blood—no one could save him from such an injury unless he could be immediately sent to the big hospitals opened by those consortiums.

"Ho ho ...... Ho ......"

Lao Lu covered his throat with both hands, a large amount of blood foam overflowed from his mouth, his trachea was bitten off, he had lost the ability to speak, and could only keep uttering meaningless syllables, looking at Qi Lin with a pleading look.

Qi Lin read Lao Lu's eyes - he hoped that Qi Lin could give him a good time, so that he would no longer have to endure the torture before death.

Qi Lin took the dagger in the hands of a fellow, walked behind Lao Lu, held his head up, and aimed the sharp dagger tip at the back of Lao Lu's head-

"Poof—"

The cold sharp weapon pierced through the gap under the occipital bone and went straight to the brain stem, Lao Lu's eyes widened instantly, and then the whole person softened.

"Gather his corpse." Qi Lin stood up and said to the guys.

The sand carrier had sailed out of the treacherous waters, and this time, Lao Lu's delivery team had lost two people, including himself.
