Volume 3 The Ghost Boat of the Sand Sea Chapter 64 The Leech
Jin Yuxiang, Xu Yunshu and I came down from the bridge one after another, and then Tanzi had just stood up and stepped down the bridge when he heard a "bang" in the water behind him. When he looked back, he saw a huge black figure coming out from behind him.
Tan Zi smiled: "Meng Jin, you are really in a hurry to go ashore!" ”
But when the black shadow landed on the shore, we fixed our eyes and saw that it was Meng Jin, who was obviously a huge leech.
"Ants...... Leech? ”
Leeches, also known as leeches, are blood-sucking annelids that often hide near streams and rice fields, secretly attaching themselves to animals to suck blood. However, the average leech has a slender body, only a dozen centimeters in size. But the one in front of us was one meter six or seven meters long, and it was wide and fat, and its body was oval, and we saw it squirming on the ground in front of us.
"Meng, Meng Jin was crushed under it!" Dai Shuiyuan, who was following behind Meng Jin, shouted. Tanzi hurriedly looked back, and sure enough, Meng Jin, who had been following him closely, was nowhere to be seen.
"Quick! Quickly turn this leech over and bring Meng Jin out! ”
At this time, Che Dong and the others also rushed across the bridge one after another, and everyone worked together to lift the leech, but no matter how hard they tried, they could only lift it slightly, and they could already see Meng Jin pressing under the leech, but they couldn't lift it. Yang Haibin tried to pull Meng Jin out from under the leech, but to no avail.
"Leeches have suckers on the front and back, and they should be sucking the ground, so ......," Xu Yunshu analyzed.
Yang Haibin, who was lying on the ground and dragging Meng Jin, shouted: "This leech also has a suction cup in the middle, and it is firmly sucked on Meng Jin's chest......"
"This thing has a different structure than a leech!" Luan Kun said to himself.
"Do you still have the heart to study the structure of leeches?" The owner shouted, "Shoot!" ”
"Fire, shoot? Will it hurt Meng Jin? Qi Yubao asked hesitantly.
"If you don't shoot again, Meng Jin will be sucked to death by blood!" Che Dong said angrily, saying that he took the lead in raising the gun in his hand......
"Shoot from the side, you can avoid Meng Jin!" Xu Yunshu reminded.
Several people in the car hurriedly stood to the side and fired at the leeches that were attached to Meng Jin's body at the same time. The fire lit up, and countless red blood flowers immediately bloomed on the leech's body.
"Is the blood of leeches red? It can't be Meng Jin, right? Dai Shuiyuan was a little worried.
After a few shots, I saw that the leech kept struggling, and then it twitched a few times, and then its whole body loosened and spread out, completely losing its previous tense appearance.
"Alright, the leech is dead!" Che Dong stopped the gunshot, "Go and see how Meng Jin is?" ”
Zhang Deming and Luan Kun stood on one side, Ji Shanchuan and Dai Shuiyuan stood on the other side with their backs to the river, and both sides were trying to lift the leeches at the same time as they had just done. This time, although his hand was heavy, he didn't move it again.
The leech slowly moved down from Meng Jin's body, revealing Meng Jin's appearance. I saw Meng Jin's sunken cheeks, pale face, wide eyes, and wide open mouth, looking frightened. At this time, Meng Jin was already dead. The clothes on his chest were tattered, and they had been damaged by leeches. With such a large leech, the amount of blood sucked must be very amazing, and he may have lost his breath after a few seconds of being absorbed to him. Although he had been dead for some time, the wound on his chest was still bleeding outward, and it did not freeze immediately.
"Is Meng Jin still saved?" Dai Shuiyuan asked.
Xu Yunshu shook her head gloomily, she knew what Dai Shuiyuan meant, so she opened her mouth to explain: "Leeches can secrete a hemolysin, which can be injected into the human body, so that the blood near the wound cannot coagulate, which is conducive to its blood sucking. ”
We flipped over the leech, which had been almost smashed into a sieve by the gun, but it was still not dead, and it was still writhing slowly on the ground. It is really as Yang Haibin said, in addition to the suction cups at the upper and lower ends, there is also a suction cup in the middle of the body, and it is larger, and there are sharp teeth inside, which seems to be used to break the skin of the target.
"Where is this leech? This is obviously a variant! Ji Shanchuan said in surprise.
Xu Yunshu also agreed with Ji Shanchuan's statement: "Leeches are actually most afraid of salt in addition to fire, but this leech lives in this brine with a very high salinity, which is indeed different from other similar species." Maybe...... It's not a leech at all, maybe ......"
"What you said makes sense, ah......" Dai Shuiyuan was as he spoke, when he suddenly felt a strong force pull him back violently. His feet were in the air, and he couldn't use his strength at all, so he could only take himself away with this force, and these were only his thoughts for a moment, and he didn't even have time to feel frightened......
Since Dai Shuiyuan was standing opposite us, we still saw something - I saw a black shadow emerge from the darkness with lightning speed, hit Dai Shuiyuan's back, and then Dai Shuiyuan's whole person was directly dragged out. I couldn't see what it was because of the dim light and the lightning speed of the thing, but I was sure it was coming from the river!
"Water Garden!!" Ji Shanchuan ran to the river and shouted loudly. I rushed forward in a few steps and pulled Ji Shanchuan back. He pushed me away and said angrily, "What the are you doing? ”
I was also angry, and I took it as a donkey's liver and lungs: "What the are you doing?" ”
"Lao Tzu wants to save the water garden!" Ji Shanchuan still has to rush to the river.
I shouted to stop him and said, "I'm saving you!" That thing is in the river, maybe there's another time! Words, Lao Tzu is here, if you still want to die, Lao Tzu will not stop you! ”
When Ji Shanchuan heard me say this, he immediately stopped. He also rushed up just now because he saw his friend suddenly in distress, and he didn't have time to think so much, but now that I said this, he also immediately woke up and understood the danger by the river.
"That'...... What about the water garden? Ji Shanchuan turned back to us with a pleading.
But none of those present could give him an answer. At this time, I didn't know what was under the water, and no one dared to rush forward.
We lined up, and a few people from the car owner and the altar stood in front with guns, and the rest of the people stood behind them and pulled them hard, advancing towards the river little by little.
When we reached the river, there was a "rattle" in the water, which startled us all. I saw something emerge from the water and float on the surface of the water.
"Water Garden!!" Ji Shanchuan recognized it at a glance as his friend Dai Shuiyuan.
Now that people are in front of us, how can they stand idly by? We had to hurry to pull Dai Shuiyuan to the shore. After going ashore, he turned him over and took a look, and everyone present knew that Dai Shuiyuan was dead. His appearance is exactly the same as Meng Jin, which means that he also died of excessive blood loss.
