Chapter 105: Water Ghost
At that moment, the tenth figure behind Ah Jiu was suddenly illuminated by the miner's lamp, and everyone shrank back and raised their high-pressure air guns one after another.
I felt a chill down my spine, and if I hadn't been in the water, I would have run away.
I can't describe the horror of what I've seen, it's even more terrifying than the Kunlun slaves and ghosts I've seen. It should be a person wrapped in an old diving suit, no, it is a corpse, the diving suit has been badly damaged, and you can see that the exposed part of the corpse has rotted out of shape, but its face is extremely pale, that kind of pale is not the pale that has been blistered, but like the blood that has been sucked dry in an instant, it is a little blue, and a pair of eyes have rotted into two black holes, deep and weird.
Especially its strange long hair, strands of hair fluttering in the water, giving people the feeling of combing thick braids, a closer look, those dense braids are actually fleshy, especially like a small snake-like tentacles, extremely weird and disgusting.
Kelpie! I remember reading about water ghosts in some popular science novels and adventures and other books, which are very similar to the thing in front of me, but I always thought it was something people made up, but I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes!
Ah Jiu saw our expressions, his face was already white, I think he had guessed that there was something behind him, but Ah Jiu's psychological quality was much better than mine, so he didn't turn around immediately like me, but slowly swam forward, and then turned around and raised the high-pressure air gun in an instant, although he was mentally prepared, but when he turned around, he was still obviously shocked, spitting out a large string of bubbles.
If a mere decomposing corpse is acceptable, the problem is that a corpse can float after us silently, and the water here does not flow at all, but the tentacle-like hair on the corpse's head flutters rhythmically in the water, which is extremely weird.
Looking at that extremely pale face, I suddenly remembered what I had seen at the entrance of the water cave outside, the moment the miner's lamp flickered.
At this time, the beard opened his mouth for a moment, as if to say, "Damn." Then he looked at the corpse and pulled the trigger, and the steel ball bullet suddenly dragged the waterline out, instantly hitting the corpse's chest, lifting the corpse away, and hitting the stone wall directly, and then I saw those tentacle-like pigtails begin to twist back and forth, like a monster with countless tentacles, and the corpse, with the twisting of the braids, slowly floated over.
It was really a strange and spectacle scene, everyone was furious, and they raised their high-pressure water guns and began to shoot to prevent the corpse from approaching, but what I didn't expect was that Lei Zi just shot through the corpse's skull, and then I saw the corpse shake, and a stream of black water suddenly erupted from the bullet hole on the skull, like the ink of a squid, which quickly stretched in the water, and soon, the entire area was blackened.
At the same time, I suddenly felt a little loose under my feet, and when I looked down, I saw that the white bones all over the ground were wriggling, and from the cracks writhed out of the cracks, a large number of tentacles of that kind of flesh whirred, and under this pile of white bones, it was all that kind of hair.
Dad was shocked when he saw it, and immediately waved his hand to let us go quickly, but the thing was blocked at the hole when we came, obviously it was impossible for us to go back, everyone's first reaction was to keep going, less than three seconds, we entered the water hole again, and when we looked back, those black ink-like liquids had spread over, I guess this thing must be highly poisonous, otherwise they would not have run away so desperately.
Later, Hu Zi told me that the black liquid was the corpse water that had been soaked in water for many years, and the abnormal decaying internal organs were extremely poisonous, and as long as people came into contact with that thing, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This time I climbed very hard in the water hole, almost using both hands and feet, no matter how many forks in the road, as long as the knife went in, we immediately followed up without saying a word, and did not make any choice at all, it was simply panicked.
I don't know how long I climbed, the front was suddenly empty, I thought I had entered a stone room again, and quickly used the miner's lamp to shine around to find the next water hole, but this time the area illuminated by the miner's lamp was dark and secluded, and nothing was illuminated, at that moment I thought that the surroundings had been surrounded by black liquid, but soon I found out that it was wrong, the kind of black was not like the real black that was soaked in black water, but the ethereal black, which showed that my door entered a considerable space.
Everyone couldn't help but stop, up and down, left and right were full of that kind of void darkness, as if they had suddenly entered the vast universe, lost any direction, and seemed to have no end in any direction.
Did we come out of the rocky hills? I suddenly had the illusion that this could already be the Pacific Ocean?
At this time, Ah Jiu took a look at the water hole we drilled out, and immediately waved his hand to let us continue running, I looked back, and saw a large mass of wriggling, tentacle-like pigtails had been drilled out, and the tentacles suddenly separated, and the extremely terrifying pale face was revealed.
The beard was about to shoot, and I stopped it all at once, and then I watched my father gesture to let us float up, I thought it was right, if we got out of the reef mountain, we would be able to surface, and when I thought of the moment I surfaced, I could see the bright moonlight and breathe the natural air, so what kind of bullshit fate, the truth of the bullshit Lushan Tomb, it doesn't matter anymore, the most important thing at the moment is to save my life! So we shook our flippers and quickly floated upward.
The speed of our floating is very fast, floating and floating I feel a little wrong, it stands to reason that we are more than 80 meters underwater, although just now in the water cave of the reef mountain, due to the special decompression structure of the water hole, we can not feel the strong pressure brought by the sea water, but now we come out of the water hole, if this is the real underwater world, it means that as soon as we drill out of the water hole, the entire water pressure structure will be reversed instantly, which means that we have long been squeezed out of the internal organs by the water pressure, but the water pressure here, The data displayed on the pressure gauge is the same as the water pressure in the water hole.
I immediately stopped them, pointed to the top, and then pointed to the pressure gauge, the first reaction was the knife, and then the father, just see him take the miner's lamp to the top of his head, everyone was suddenly startled, all of them spit out a large string of bubbles, it can be seen, no one did not take a breath of cold air.
Everyone's miner's lamps shone overhead, and we could clearly see that above us, there was a huge monster head bigger than a locomotive, two giant eyes the size of a beetle car, bulging eyes, glaring at us silently and angrily, huge mouths open, four fangs as long as a man, as if they could tear us all apart in one bite.
I suddenly felt a limp, and I sank involuntarily, my head buzzing, oh my God, what is that? Prehistoric Behemoths?
Suddenly I felt that something was wrong, and my sinking was not due to my own reasons, but as if something was dragging me down. I looked down in a hurry, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, I don't know when, the water ghost has followed, is using its flesh, hair-like tentacles to pull me down, I instantly hairy, I feel that the entangled legs seem to have lost consciousness, want to shout for help, helpless in the water but can not make a sound, in a hurry, I immediately kicked with the other foot, but unfortunately the foot is wearing flippers, the strong resistance brought by the sea water makes the force of my kick almost disappear.
In a critical moment, I only heard a pop, and a waterline brushed in my ears, and the bullets of the high-pressure air gun suddenly entered the tentacles, and the tentacles were instantly loosened, Ah Jiu and Hu took the opportunity to pull my shoulders and lift them up, quickly getting rid of the tentacles, and then, under the illumination of my miner's lamp, dozens of pale and terrifying human faces floated up in the darkness, and each face was wriggled around those fleshy, hair-like tentacles, like demonic sunflowers, quickly swimming up towards us.
Ah Jiu and Beard carried me up and tried to float, completely stunned by the underwater scene, but I suddenly remembered that there was a monster above, and suddenly a spirit, hurriedly looked up, and saw that everyone swam into the mouth of the giant beast, as if they were sucked in by the giant mouth, I was shocked, and hurriedly struggled desperately, trying to remind Ah Jiu and Beard, but these two people desperately dragged me to swim there, and they didn't mean to let go of me at all.
What's worse is that the pale faces in the back are still chasing after us with the squirming of their hair, and my heart sinks: "It's over, this time it's dead!" ”
