Chapter 42: In the River
I feel a little soft in my legs.
On the sampan of this boat, I was confident that I would fight with the manfish, but I was not sure at all when I went underwater. I've heard the old man say, this mandrill, you need to fish for corpses on the Yellow River to deal with it, those people have a dead breath, there are many souls on their bodies, and there is the protection of the Dragon Palace, this mandrill does not dare to hurt them.
Whether it's real or not, I can't deal with this thing.
"What to do? What to do? "My mind is buzzing, there is no way at all, if Hong Ye is here, not to mention the ability of the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master, even the identity of the corpse bearer can be dealt with.
Click, click, click!
The crack under my feet slowly spread, listening to the sound, obviously the other claw of the mandrill was about to stretch out, and I secretly cried out in my heart, this Nima is finished.
I hurriedly helped Su Xiao, and a dog eating fell straight down towards the sampan in front of me.
Click!
This time there was a crisp sound, but the claw was actually broken alive.
I looked back and saw this scene, laughing, damn it, let you mess with Lao Tzu, I'll see what you do. I didn't expect this method to really work, the only thing that was unpleasant was that Su Xiao was on my back when I fell, and the weight came down, and I was dizzy.
I didn't care about the pain in my body, so I got up with a grunt and saw that Su Xiao was fine, so I wiped the cold sweat on my head and went to see the movement of the manhole.
The water ray was probably also confused by my sudden confusion, and he was stunned to drill under the sampan, and there was no movement.
"What's wrong?"
Strangely, the mandrill vanished, and I looked at the broken claws, the withered fingers, the brown flesh, and the stench coming from above. I felt a little pain from the claw just now, and I looked at it, five slightly black finger marks, and the flesh wound was a bit like a burn mark.
"What's going on?" I looked at my legs, and I knew that the black marks must have been scratched by this claw, but what was the matter with these burn marks?
Don't...... I immediately took the severed hand that was still holding on to my lap and put it in front of me to take a look, Nima, sure enough!
The paws were all burned, and they smelled burnt, but they were much worse than those on my legs.
I thought about it, and tried to bring that paw closer to my foot again, and when I touched it, a piercing pain came down my leg, and I saw a puff of white smoke rise with my own eyes.
I rub, what's going on? I was stunned by this scene.
I know that the claws are poisonous, and they don't look like a normal color, but how can they smoke?
But at this time, I thought about the strange things that happened to me, and a bold idea gradually came to me. "Do I have a restraint effect on these things?"
I think it's crazy, but it's the only explanation I can think of, and I don't know if it's the original cause or if it's something that has mutated my body in a way that I don't even know about.
"Damn, anyway, it's a good thing, at least I have a little more confidence to deal with this mandrill now."
Thinking about it like this, I have some hope in my heart, damn it, look at how Lao Tzu killed you shit. I stood up and looked at the scarlet river around me, and the guy didn't know where to hide and stare at me, I felt a chill behind my back, and I had an indescribable feeling, and I knew that as soon as I moved, the guy would come out.
By this time the crack in the boat had fully opened, and I stood on this side, and the other half of the boat broke away from the hull and swirled in the middle of the river.
"Damn, hurry up, or the ship will sink." This black boat is the style of the kind of boat that is lined up on the old-fashioned Yellow River, without a cloak, just such a light gourd, with two masts on it, and it used to be very fast to put a double sailboat.
It's just that later I heard that this thing was eliminated, and now the river is running on the same kind of small motor iron boat driven by diesel engines.
I don't know how to design the brig, anyway, after cracking in the middle, it didn't sink immediately, but swayed back and forth on the river, but I saw that the draft on the side of the ship slowly changed, and it didn't take much effort for the ship to sink.
At this glance, I understand what this mandrill is paying attention to, obviously waiting for me to fall into the water before cleaning me up, it is really shrewd, a good calculation.
It's a pity that the mandrill is a dead thing, and I am a big living person. That's the gap between it and me.
"You want to play with me? Wait, my master has had enough fun with you. "I'm smiling, since you don't come out, then I'll lead you out, anyway, now I can restrain you, be careful and you can't do anything to me.
After making up my mind, I deliberately walked a few steps back and forth on the boat to make some noise. Sure enough, I saw a black shadow flashing in the water not far away.
"I'll see how long you can hide."
I waved my hand at Dong Tian, who was looking anxious on the riverbank, indicating that it was okay. Then he opened his voice and sang. I'm just going to make some movement and see if this mandrill can hold on.
"The blue line of the blue line, the blue line...... gave birth to an orchid flower, and I really loved ...... person "I sing the orchid flower that my father taught me when he was digging sand when he was a child, and almost everyone on the side of the Yellow River sings this."
My voice drifted across the river, and although I was singing, I kept an eye on the guy's movements.
"Don't take the bait?" After I finished singing, the guy moved a few times, but it didn't come out.
I thought about it in my heart, I guess it won't work, and then look at the waterline on the side side, and the boat under my feet is becoming more and more unstable.
Click.
As soon as this sound sounded, I thought that the thing was about to get the sampan under my feet again, but when I looked at it, I found that it was not, but the mast of the half of the ship on the opposite side was actually broken from the middle, and the broken section was about three or four meters long, but it was estimated that it was corroded badly after a long time, and it looked light.
When I saw this thing, my eyes lit up, and maybe there was a way to do it.
I walked past the boat and went up, the boat was slowly drifting under the current, and I watched the piece of wood slowly come closer. I waited patiently, and after a while, I saw the opportunity, stretched out my foot and hooked the log, and brought it to my boat. Because it's a bad wood, it doesn't weigh much, but the buoyancy is surprisingly good, and I didn't have much trouble carrying it, and I was able to do it easily.
"Brother, what are you doing, hurry up, the ship is sinking!"
Dong Tian's voice came from afar, I was stunned for a moment, and I quickly looked at it, only to find that at this time, the waterline was completely unclear, and there was already water on the sampan under my feet.
I looked at the red under my feet, as if I was standing in a sea of blood. I remember the shock of that scene for many years, and later I told Su Xiao that if there was a camera to capture it, I would definitely get an international award. It's a pity that there was no camera at that time, and secondly, there was a life and death crisis, and I didn't have that mind.
"Brother Dong, you're going to pick me up, I'll go over right away!" I saw that it was too late, and there was no way, so I jumped directly into the water, hugged the piece of wood with all my strength, and put Su Xiao on it and held it carefully. Then he kicked the side of the boat.
"Drink!" I roared, and the strength of my whole body was condensed on my legs, and I glared hard, and I held the log, like an arrow, and cleaved the waves in the water, rolling forward.
"Good! Attaboy! Dong Tian saw my method and smiled on the shore to cheer me up.
But I don't have any bottom in my heart, I know that the mandrill is still there, and it is waiting for me to go into the water, this time, life and death depend on luck.
But no matter what, Su Xiao was sent safely.
Having made up my mind, I glanced around with both eyes, "Nothing?" Where did it go? "What puzzled me was that the mandrill was completely gone, as if it had never existed at all.
The more this is the case, the more strange and terrifying the atmosphere becomes. What awaits me is probably a fatal blow!
Syllable! Smack! Bang Bang Bang!
Suddenly, there was the sound of a river hitting me. I turned my head and looked, and half of my body became cold. It was colder than the river under the ground.
In the scarlet river, a withered claw stretched out, and that claw was very familiar to me, it was a mandrill!
"You're finally here!" Soon I was looking at the claws that appeared.
As soon as the claw poked its head out, it grabbed at me as if it had opened its eyes, and I turned sideways in the water and gave way. However, the wooden pole he was holding couldn't be hidden.
The claw was caught in the wood at once. The mast had weathered badly due to age, and this claw went down and actually dug a huge hole in the middle for me.
Su Xiao, who was placed on the wood, fell into the river on the side of his body.
I quickly stepped forward, and I just got under Su Xiao and lifted Su Xiao up.
Goo!
But I didn't change it in one breath but I was poured a mouthful of water, and the scarlet river water went into my stomach, and I wiped it, and the smell was really unbearable. Years later, after I drank cat poop coffee abroad, I remembered that the river water tasted even worse than that.
The matter was far from over, I went into the water, and the real danger began.
The paw took a handful of wood and took it back, and then a stream of water poured up from my side like a spring, but it was scarlet and scarlet, and it looked terrible.
I felt the log leaning against my side jerk and hit me in the chest.
"I'll wipe it, I want my life!" In a hurry, I plunged into the water and blocked Su Xiao's mouth to ventilate her, soft and fragrant, but I didn't have time to enjoy it.
At that moment, I felt like my scalp was exploding, and my legs were hugged by the mandrill.
