Chapter 608: Floating Corpses Crossing the River

I shook my head and said, "You were bitten by a Gu worm to help us lead the way, even if you say thank you, it should be us." ”

Ah Song struggled to get up, but Laila hurried over to help him, until he stood firm, Ah Song then smiled bitterly, "I can't imagine that this dark river is so dangerous, how can we cross it?" ”

Speaking of this, everyone was silent, the road ahead has been covered by the dark river, and if you want to pass through this cave, you must go into the water, but those weird and unguardable shrimp Gu under the water are extremely headaches, and no one here can resist the Gu poison except me.

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Qiang suddenly patted his head and said, "Brother, I have thought of a way, the Dragon Spirit Gu is the king of the Gu and can't help but let it go into the water first, and solve all the shrimp Gu in the water, and then everyone wade into the water, do you think this method is feasible?" ”

Seeing that everyone subconsciously turned their eyes to me, I only smiled bitterly, "I forgot to tell you, the Dragon Spirit Gu is not good at diving, this guy's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced when he enters the water, I'm afraid there is no way to expel the shrimp Gu in the entire dark river." ”

"That's it......" Zhang Qiang sat down with a regretful face, sighed and said, "Then there is no way, there is not even a bamboo in this cave, and it is too late to make a bamboo raft, not to mention that even if you make a bamboo raft, it is not safe, it seems that we have to wait for the rainstorm to stop, and then we will return the same way and walk from the top of the mountain." ”

Everyone was depressed, and when they felt helpless, the old scar, who had been squatting by the side and was silent, suddenly stood up, held a flashlight and scanned the black cave wall, Zhang Qiang wilted his head and said, "It's useless old scar, this underground river fills the entire cave, and you must go into the water to pass through the cave, unless you are a gecko and can climb the wall." ”

Scar shook his head and said, "I'm not a gecko, but I should have a way to send you there!" ”

"What do you mean?" Zhang Qiang and I both stood up in shock, and looked at the old scar with urgency, and the old scar waved his hand lightly and repeated what he had just said, "I have a way to send you over." ”

I hurriedly said, "What's the solution?" ”

The old scar did not give a direct positive response, but turned his gaze to the corpse behind him, and then said slowly, "My profession is to drive corpses, although there are no new corpses to drive this year, but in order to ensure that the unique work of this vein will not be broken, I still insist on finding work every day, the farthest time, I once drove a corpse from Changsha to Liaoning, which is considered to have crossed most of the country......"

Zhang Qiang said impatiently, "When is this happening, who is in the mood to listen to you show off your achievements in chasing corpses?" ”

Old Scar paused unhurriedly, and then said, "Don't worry, from Changsha to Liaoning, do you know how difficult the road is?" We have crossed countless bridges, countless ravines and mountains. ”

Hearing this, I already vaguely understood something, so I interjected, "It is impossible to drive corpses from the bridge openly, and if someone finds them, they will definitely call the police, so how do you get through those places where there is water?" ”

Old Scar pointed to the corpse lying on the ground and said, "Rely on it!" ”

"How?" I hurriedly asked.

The old scar didn't speak again, but silently took out the paper and pen, mixed the cinnabar with chicken blood, and then quickly drew a few charms, then folded the dried charms into a triangle, found a piece of bamboo, gently pried open the corpse's mouth, and then stuffed the yellow talisman into the corpse's mouth.

Then the old scar took a few steps back, went around to the water's edge and shook the copper bell gently, and several corpses stood up straight with their legs tense like tumblers, and then swayed into the water.

I watched this scene thoughtfully, and Zhang Qiang stomped his feet and said, "Old Scar, what are you going to do, the corpses are indeed not afraid of being bitten by Gu worms, after all, they are all dead, I don't care if they are poisoned, but we ......"

Old Scar stopped shaking the brass bell, glanced at us lightly, and said, "Step on the shoulders of the corpses and let them carry everyone across the river!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the old scar with shocked eyes, and Zhang Qiang twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "You're not kidding, what if you are shaken off by the corpse?" ”

Old Scar shook his head and said, "No, I will control the corpse to balance in the water, and I will definitely not shake you down." ”

"That's not going to work either!" Zhang Qiang immediately shook his head like a rattle, and hurriedly said, "The corpse is only one meter five or six at most from the toes to the neck, we don't know how deep the dark river is, in case it ......."

"Lao Zhang, do it, I can definitely trust Brother Scar!" At this time, I suddenly spoke up and interrupted Zhang Qiang's words.

"You...... Alas! Zhang Qiang hesitated for a long time before he gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, it's a big deal to sacrifice your life to accompany the gentleman, brother, you must look at me when you cross the water." ”

I was so angry and amused that I was speechless at this guy, waved my hand and said, "Then I'll be the first to go up, and you guys will follow." ”

After saying that, I jumped on the back of the corpse and stepped on the left and right shoulders of the corpse, because the bones and muscles of the corpse were all very stiff, so I stood quite steady, especially when the corpse was paddling, it actually floated smoothly on the water as if there was a stake on the wood, and it was not bumpy at all.

It didn't take long for me to hear the second paddling, it turned out to be Zhang Qiang squatting on the corpse's shoulder, I didn't feel anything when I stood on the corpse, I turned my head and saw Zhang Qiang stepping on a dead man's head floating on the water, and suddenly scared out a layer of white sweat, Zhang Qiang was even more uncalm than me, and only after the two corpses approached did he say, "Holding the grass, it's really exciting, I never thought that I would step on the back of the corpse to cross the river." ”

At this time, more corpses swam towards us, behind Zhang Qiang was Laila, Laila was followed by Ah Song, and the old scar was the last to climb onto the back of the corpse, his left foot and right foot each stepped on the shoulder of a corpse, the copper bell in his hand shook gently, chanting incantations from time to time, which looked very weird.

On the rest of the way, none of us spoke, and the deeper we went into the hole, the dimer the light became, and we couldn't see anything except the brightness of the flashlights in our hands.

After about twenty minutes of paddling in the water, I felt a sudden shock of the corpse under my feet, and quickly swept the flashlight in front of me, and found that we had floated across the underground river and came to the opposite bank of the cave.

I quickly waved my hand at the old scar, and the old scar understood, and soon stopped shaking his peers, and then the corpse stopped paddling, I jumped on the back of the corpse, jumped two meters, easily jumped over the waterfront, and then turned back to the crowd and said, "Come here, it's safe here." ”

"Okay, brother, get out of the way, I'll come over right away!" The person who spoke out was Zhang Qiang, this old boy kicked his legs and jumped, and ran directly to me, I quickly reached out and grabbed his arm, but he didn't find a good point when he landed, his toes slipped on the rock, and almost fell into the water with an upside-down onion, but fortunately I grabbed his trouser belt in time, which forcibly pulled up Zhang Qiang, who was stuck into the water.
