Chapter 342: Deadly River
Swim to the other side?
Rey glanced at the river again, it was still flowing gently, and there was no danger in it.
In Rey's eyes, the river at this moment is even like a scarf that gives people a very comfortable feeling.
"This ......," but Ah San clearly hesitated.
"Mr. Charon." The strong man at the head spoke, "Is it okay if he doesn't go to the other side?" ”
"What do you mean?" The Grim Reaper began to slowly turn his scythe.
"That's it," the leader didn't know what to say, "it's you, can you ......"
"Send him back?" Death asked.
"Yes, yes." The leader hurriedly said, "When things, I can do it alone." ”
"Big brother." It was obvious that Ah San was moved, and the strong man's eyes were shining with tears.
"No!" The Grim Reaper flatly refused, "First, if you don't pay the fare, the boat can only stop here, whether it is forward or backward, you can only swim through it by yourself." ”
"But the price ......," the leader tried to say something, but was interrupted by death.
"Second," said the Grim Reaper, "one of the passengers on the ship has not paid the fare, and the ship will not move. ”
"Huh?" Ah San's eyes widened.
"Third." The Grim Reaper continued, "You only have a few minutes to think about it, and once the pattern on the scythe is gone, then I won't take this thing anymore. ”
"Huh?"
This time it was Rey who stood up.
"There's one person who doesn't start the ship without paying the fee, and there's a time limit, and everybody has to give up a part of themselves on the spot, and that part is still uncertain?" Rey analyzed.
"That's right." The Grim Reaper smiled slightly.
"Well, let's swim over together." Rey suggested.
But Rey found that no one paid attention to him.
"The river is very gentle," said Rey, "and it's not very far from the other side." ”
Still no one paid attention to him.
The three strong men gritted their teeth and didn't know what they were thinking.
It was at this time that the eyes spoke.
"Stupid!" Sora wanted to pat Rey's head, but due to his height, he could only pat his butt in the end.
"How?"
"There's no need to worry." Sora said, "Haven't you turned the pointer yet?" It's not too late to make a decision after you have seen what the fare is. ”
"Yes, yes." It dawned on Rey.
If the fare for the boat is only a few strands of hair or even a beard, why should you bother to jump into the river so hard?
Let's wait and see.
"Big, big brother." The little rabbit had a sad face.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm so sorry. The little rabbit didn't know, and he didn't know that there would be such a situation. Little Rabbit said apologetically, "Before, it was obviously very simple before. ”
"It's okay." Sora comforted, "It's not your fault, we'll swim over if it's a big deal." ”
"Swim over?" The Grim Reaper, Charon, suddenly spoke, "Good idea. ”
"You, what did you say?" Rey looked over.
"But I would like to kindly remind you that you must always pay attention to what is under the river while swimming."
"What's that?"
This time, everyone spoke.
All eyes were on Charon.
"Look!" Suddenly, Charon felt a long emerald snake from his body.
"Ah......h
"It's okay, it's okay." Rey reassured.
It was a live snake, the body of the snake was constantly wrapped around Caron's arm, a pair of gray eyes stared cautiously at the people around him, and the red letter spat out one after another.
Suddenly, Kajon threw himself hard towards the river, only to hear a "plop" sound, and the green snake fell into the water.
As soon as the water splashed, the snake's eyes suddenly glared, but before the snake's body could curl, the snake disappeared into the vast water.
That glare......
It could be seen that the green snake was trying to get rid of something, but in the end it was to no avail.
There seems to be a huge force hidden beneath the surface of the water.
Suddenly, blisters bubbled at the place where the green snake fell, and the gurgling sound was like the water was boiling. Then a white snake bone surfaced without warning.
"Ah~"
Bunny shouted.
This time, not only the little rabbit, but even the three mountain-like strong men trembled at the corners of their lips.
The snake bone curled up slightly on the surface of the water as if it were still alive, and then sank again. Just as the snake's head was about to sink, Rey saw a hint of pain in his empty eye sockets made of white bones.
"Plop", the snake bone completely submerged in the river, and the surface of the water returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Just when everyone felt that their beating hearts were a little settled, an unprecedented voice came up from under the water.
The sound was not loud, and there were no ripples on the water.
But the voice was creepy, like an endless pain coming out of the abyss.
With a "bang", Rey sat down on the chair.
The scene just now was replayed in his mind one by one. But this time, the idea of swimming past was no longer in his mind.
Jumping down is tantamount to suicide, this is the only thought in Rey's mind at this moment.
Moreover, it is also an infinitely painful way of committing suicide.
"Look!" Grim Reaper Charon spoke again, pointing to the tip of the scythe and said, "The pattern is about to disappear. ”
"I'm ......" Ah San's face trembled continuously, he knew that his time was running out.
Moreover, your own choice is important.
Once the pattern disappears, the other party will no longer charge the item, so you can only count it as not paying the fare.
If any person on board fails to pay the fare, the boat will not start again.
So......
Ah San's mind only had a frozen pattern left, which was the snake bone that floated on the surface of the river.
"Ten!" The countdown to death has begun.
"I'll pay!" Ah San shouted.
"The third child!" The leader stood up.
"Big brother," Ah San said, "isn't it just a finger, what's the big deal." At least, at least it's much better than a life! ”
"Yes, that's what I said." The other little brother said, his eyes rolling, as if he was thinking about something.
"Okay." Death lay across the scythe and said, "Are you going to hand it in person or ......?"
He didn't finish his sentence, because he found that his scythe had been caught.
It's another little brother!
At this moment, his large hands were tightly gripping the shaft of the scythe close to the blade of the blade.
"Little four?"
"Big brother! Third brother! The little brother, known as the little four, said loudly, "What are you doing in a daze?" Hurry up! Subdue this kid and control ......"
He didn't finish his sentence.
Because the world has changed before his eyes!
The heads of the eldest and third brothers suddenly dropped out of view, and then the blue-gray canopy appeared, and then there was a big turn of one hundred and eighty degrees, frozen on the calm water.
"Ah~"
The screams immediately came from the mouth of the little four.
With a "plop", he fell into the water.
An indescribable pain hit him from every part of his body, and he tried to speak, but the cold water blurred his vision.
"Ah Si!" The leader let out a loud shout and stared at the water.
A few seconds later, with the sound of gurgling bubbles, a pair of white bones floated up.
It's like a model for a medical student, the skeleton is very white and clean.
There's not a shred of flesh on that skeleton!
"Ah Si !!" The leader's eyes were bloodshot.
"You!" The leader turned his head and glared at the Grim Reaper.
I saw Caron grasping the center of the blade with both hands, and unhurriedly rotating his cold scythe.
"He's breaking the rules." Charon said coldly.
"I'll fight with you!"
Ah San roared angrily and rushed towards the Grim Reaper, only to hear a "snap", and his wrist was tightly grasped by the leader.
"Big, big brother?" Ah San turned his head.
"Do you want to make senseless sacrifices too?" The leader roared.
"Huh." The Grim Reaper in front of him smiled.
The laughter was indescribably weird and terrifying.
In an instant, everyone on board had such a feeling. This scythe is an ancient artifact, and its power is endless.
And the Grim Reaper with this scythe in his hand is the law of this big black ship!
"But ......"
"How can I not understand your feelings?" The leader glared at a pair of scarlet eyes and said, "But we still have important things to do. We, we can only put away our grief for a while. We have to go across the river! ”
"Okay, okay." In the roar of the eldest brother, the impulse faded, and Ah San's reason reoccupied the high ground.
The eldest brother is right, he is also making a senseless sacrifice when he rushes up, just like the fourth child.
When he thought of the last appearance of the fourth child, Ah San felt a chill.
It was the eldest brother, it was the eldest brother who saved me.
Ah San's nerves are on the verge of collapse.
He suddenly felt that his mind was gradually dimming, as if all the light had been ruthlessly taken away.
Eventually, there was only one thought left in my mind.
I don't want to be like that!!
"Oh my God!"
Ah San squatted down with his head in his hands.
"Ah San!"
The leader was about to put his hand on his shoulder when a voice came coldly.
"It's almost gone."
Coming to an end?
Everyone looked at the grim reaper's chilling scythe, even Ah San.
Sure enough, the pattern of the finger on the scythe gradually blurred, as if it had been introduced into the morning mist.
said that it was too late, and he didn't know where Ah San found a dagger, and he didn't even think about cutting off his index finger.
"Ah!!h
With Ah San's heart-rending wail, this bloody finger was bagged by death.
"Good." Charon whispered, then turned his gaze to the leader.
"It's your turn."
These three words were like a sharp blade into the heart of the leader.
His face was pale, his eyes were prominent, his mouth was slightly open, and the muscles on both sides of his cheeks were constantly shaking.
It took a long time for a faint breath to come out of his mouth.
“…… Good. ”
