While everyone was excited, the road on the shore was getting narrower and narrower, and we had to think about getting into the water.

Shining the light of the flashlight into the water, I saw that the water quality was unusually black, perhaps because there was too much sediment underneath.

However, it reminds me of the canal in the moat of Anyang when I was a child, and the water in it was black from a distance, because there was too much sediment and the reflection of sunlight.

At that time, the old people were afraid that we children would fall into the water, and they always lied to us that there were ghosts in the black water, so this is a shadow of my childhood.

In fact, until now, whenever I see similar canals, ditches, etc., I feel uneasy.

However, the river in front of you does not seem to be very deep, and through the light of the flashlight, you can see the bottom of the water dozens of meters ahead.

At this moment, the old fat man came up again, and without saying a word, he began to undress and prepare to go into the water.

I'm still a little scared by this kind of behavior, and although I can swim, I always feel that it is not a good thing to go into the water blindly like this.

Human psychology is sometimes so contradictory, maybe it's because I'm still worried about this black water, but if I want to go down, I believe I can still do it.

As the saying goes, "the living are afraid of water, and the acquaintances are afraid of the grave".

This is an old saying, that is to say, when people go to a strange place, they are afraid of wading in the water, because they do not know the depth of the water. The second half of the sentence says that when a person arrives in a familiar place, what he is afraid of is the grave of the acquaintance, because he is familiar and knowing, so he will associate with what he looked like before his death, and naturally there will be a sense of awe and fear.

In short, different environments produce different mental activities.

But there are more people than me, and Daring said at this time: "Why don't we find a raft or something?" ”

The old fat was almost taken off at this time, and when he heard this, he pricked up his eyes and said, "Is it okay to treat you as a raft?" Standing on the shore if you can't swim! ”

As soon as I heard that there were such good things, I also stuck out my tongue and said, "Fat brother, I don't know much about water ......."

But before he finished speaking, he asked Xiao Liu to take it: "Don't you call yourself a little white strip in the waves, why can't you suddenly water?" He grinned at me.

The old fat glanced at me, and his eyes were a little sharp, so I didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and thought, let's honestly prepare to go into the water.

But just as we were about to jump, Xiao Liu grabbed Lao Pang and me, and pointed in one direction on the river with his hand.

We subconsciously shone a flashlight and found that there was a floating object on the surface of the river.

Taking advantage of the light of the flashlight, squinting at it, it seemed to be a box-shaped thing, with some colorful patterns on it, and it didn't look like something we usually saw.

Just as we were thinking about what it was, the bold man who was shrinking to the side suddenly said, "Do you think it looks like a coffin?" ”

Coffin?

The word is always associated with the dead, and if the wooden box is really a coffin, then where did it come from?

The old fat pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Don't say it, it's really possible, looking at the pattern and the style of the box, it really looks like a coffin." ”

When I heard this, goosebumps rolled down my back.

But the old fat didn't seem to care too much, and said: "What's so terrible, it's not that you haven't seen it, besides, don't you know if it's a coffin when you go over and see it?" ”

Xiao Liu on the other side didn't seem to care too much about this, and was about to go into the water as he spoke.

This made me suffer, and under the drive of these two masters, I was forced to go into the water.

But fortunately, the water surface at the beginning only reached the surface of the feet, and it was not until a distance of several tens of meters in the direction of the water flow that it gradually deepened.

I don't know where the water is going.

But I've always been curious about the structure of this underground river.

Are these streams circulating? Or does it end up underground?

The further down you go, the deeper the water becomes, and if you want to find the way, you won't be able to meet the wooden box.

After walking another hundred meters or so, a few of us began to raise our guns and walk forward step by step, like three soldiers who had raised their hands in surrender.

At this time, Xiao Liu suddenly said: "There won't be insects in this water, right?" ”

The old fat walked in the front, snorted coldly, and said: "It's too late if you have it, but at most it's a leech, and it's not a big deal to get a few bites, but there are also unlucky times when you are infected with scarlet fever or something." ”

I smiled inwardly, this old fat man is really like that, but leeches are all over the world, and there may be such a thing in any ecological water quality, of course, in the field of fresh water, but it will definitely not spread scarlet fever. In fact, children are used to playing in the water, and it is common to be targeted for a few bites.

But the more the old fat said, the more evil he became: "I heard that there is such a kind of leech, which can go down the human side, and then lay eggs in the body, when the time comes, not only is it extremely painful when peeing, but the urine is also black, if it is not treated in time, it will be a big trouble." ”

I don't know if it's true or not, but it sounds weird.

If there really is such a thing in the water, won't I be a waste in my life?

But after thinking about it, this grandson is so evil, it is estimated that he made up nonsense to scare us.

The old fat saw that our faces were blue and white for a while, and said with a smile: "But ah, just tighten the trouser door." ”

Xiao Liu followed: "Then what if I come in along my trouser legs?" ”

Unexpectedly, the old fat came to a more disgusting sentence: "It depends on how long your pants haven't been changed, if you haven't changed them for a long time, the leeches will be smoked to death if they swim in, so we guess it's fine." ”

After joking with them, my attention was easily diverted elsewhere.

Thinking of this, I feel that Lao Pang is very likely to deliberately pull these things for us, as he said before, these jokes are sometimes prepared to divert everyone's attention, which can be used to relieve negative pressure.

But anyway, the old fat joke was not told in vain, at least I wasn't so scared.

Further on, we gradually approached the flowery box, but the water level did not change, that is, just above the chest.

However, due to the resistance of the water, we had more and more difficulty walking, but in order to keep the guns and ammunition dry, they had to hold on like this.

At this time, a feeling arose, I think the target of the old fat should not be that box, right?
