Chapter 399: Salvage

The whole book .,The fastest update of the latest chapter of the Dark Witch Secrets!

The people on the boat were stunned, and no one could have imagined that the corpse still had iron chains tied to its ankles. The end of the chain sticks out at the bottom of the water, and the surface of the water is dark green, so you can't see what is going on below.

There were no tools on board to cut this chain.

This chain can be compared to the thickness of an adult's fist, and it is quite heavy to handle, and with a pull of the hand, the head connected to the water is dead and heavy, and it is a little unmoving.

"Mr. Wang, what's going on?" Ah Hui asked me.

I was also a little confused, what did this mean, and muttered: "Could it be that this is the case, when the Khmer people threw the corpse at that time, the corpse already had an evil omen, and the Khmer people were afraid that the corpse would retaliate, so they tied it to the water with iron chains." ”

Ah Hui blinked: "It makes sense, it makes sense, so what now?" ”

"You ask me?" I said, "I'm only responsible for finding the body, and the rest of the work is not part of my task." ”

Ah Hui hurriedly circled around the boat, chattering with a few soldiers in Southeast Asian, and discussing something quickly. I sat in the bow of the boat, next to the female corpse.

The fat female corpse had already been dragged onto the boat, only two feet were still hanging in the water, because the corpse was too heavy, causing the bow of the boat to be lowered a lot, and the whole lifeboat was like an unstable seesaw, which could capsize with a little wave.

I put my hand on the female corpse's head and silently chanted the Ghost King's mantra, trying to communicate with it, wondering what was going on underwater. I can also communicate, I can feel its emotions fluctuating, and when I ask it about the situation under its feet, I feel that this emotion is immediately broken, and the signal transmitted by the resentful spirit is gone.

I wondered in my heart, this situation can only show one point, the female corpse is extremely resistant to the topic of iron chains. Because I can't read its emotions deeply, I don't know whether it's fear or disgust. However, one thing is certain, and the secret under the chain is extraordinary to make the evil spirits of such a big grudge have such a resistive mood.

At this time, Ah Hui leaned over and said, "Mr. Wang, there is a way now, you can see if it works, and discuss it with you." ”

I motioned to him.

Ah Hui said: "We don't have the tools to cut the chains, so now if we want to go back, there are pliers and files on the diesel boat, although it is a little troublesome, but it can solve the problem here." ”

"You mean you're going back now?" I asked.

Ah Hui said yes.

I shook my head coldly: "Go back and come back, it's likely that you won't find this place again." ”

"What do you mean?" Ah Hui asked.

I looked at the female corpse lying on the bow of the boat and said, "I tried to communicate with this corpse just now, it has a kind of resistance to underwater things, if we go out and come back, I am afraid that it will change later, and I dare not guarantee what will happen at that time." ”

Ah Hui was anxious: "What should I do?" Could it be that we divide the soldiers into two ways and let them swim back to get their tools, while the two of us wait here? ”

"Don't worry, it's not a good idea to let them swim back," I said, "There are so many corpses here, and the water is a medium for spreading yin energy, and they mortals will die in it before they can swim out of this water." ”

"That, that, this doesn't work, that doesn't work, what should I do?" Ah Hui asked anxiously.

I looked at the green water and said for a while, "Do any of your men have good water quality?" ”

Ah Hui smiled bitterly: "The people who can get to this small boat are all very good in water, and they are all selected from more than a dozen people, and they are all young men who grew up near the Mekong River Basin. ”

I looked at the two Southeast Asian soldiers and said, "There's a way, you choose one person to go into the water, dive in, go down the chain, and see what the end is tied to." ”

In fact, this is my purpose, and the reason why I rejected Ah Hui's proposal was because I didn't want to cut the chains, and I wanted to see what the chains were tied to. I had a strong premonition that I might be able to find something unexpected.

Ah Hui's mouth was bitter: "Mr. Wang, you just said that swimming in the water will be very risky, why are you still letting them go into the water now." Besides, I don't think there should be anything down there, maybe it's just an iron lump, dragging the corpse to sink in the pool. ”

"With me here, what are the risks of using mana blessings." I said, "I can guarantee this, let them go down and take a look, whether the iron lump comes up or not." ”

Ah Hui sighed, there was really no way, he called two of his subordinates, and said a string of babbling. The two subordinates looked at each other, their faces were embarrassed, Ah Hui said something again, gestured, and one of his subordinates raised his hand in agreement.

Ah Hui said to me, "Mr. Wang, he is willing to go down, but he wants a reward. ”

I nodded: "If I get the diamonds given by your team, I will give you some reward, and I won't let you work in vain." ”

Ah Hui smiled at this time and said with a smile: "I knew that Mr. Wang would not treat us badly, you are very particular." ”

He said something to the man, and pointed at me.

The soldier who was about to enter the water arched his hand at me, looking very respectful. He stood up and took off his clothes, and he was naked, standing at the bow of the boat to jump into the water.

I hurriedly stopped him, handed him the magic charm infused with mana, and asked Ah Hui to translate it to him, telling him that this thing can ward off evil spirits and will not let evil spirits invade you, but you will return it to me after it comes out of the water.

The young man smiled at me with a mouthful of white teeth, took the charm and put it in his mouth. I'm also helpless, just hold it, he needs to free his hands to do things when he goes into the water.

He stood at the bow of the boat and took a deep breath, and could see that he was breathing in an abdominal style, and his whole little belly was bulging into a mountain bag.

This man is very powerful, I thought to myself, he is storing air, just like a camel walks in the desert and uses its hump to store water.

The young man did not make any unnecessary movements, his big head down, his hands were folded together, and he jumped into the water in an instant, breaking through the water, and the figure shook on the dark green water, and the whole person disappeared under the water.

We waited quietly on the boat, and the minutes ticked by. I couldn't sit still and asked Ah Hui how long it had been. Ah Hui looked at his watch: "It's been ten minutes." ”

"He's amazing." I say.

Ah Hui said: "My subordinate is a family of fishermen on the Mekong River, and I grew up on a boat, and I can often dive to the deepest depths to hunt fish and eat by myself with only swimming goggles, and the water is very good. ”

After waiting another five or six minutes, the man still didn't come up.

I muttered, "Did something happen?" ”

Ah Hui blinked: "If you die, the corpse will float up." ”

I shook my head: "Not necessarily, the situation below is unknown, it is possible to do anything," I looked at the other soldier: "No, let him go." ”

Ah Hui looked at me and was speechless for a long time, then sighed and nodded, nodded and called the soldier, discussed with him, and asked him to go into the water.

The soldier didn't see that he didn't want to come, but he was eager to try, took off his clothes and was about to take off his pants, when suddenly countless bubbles and waves appeared on the water, and I hurriedly said, "Is it coming up?" ”

A few of us came to the bow of the boat to look, only to see a black shadow under the water slowly floating, the speed was extremely fast, there was a sound of water, and a person floated up and was on the water. We were stunned when we saw this, it was the young man just now, he was face down, motionless, and his body looked extremely stiff.

Ah Hui hooked him with a long bamboo pole and slowly pulled him back, always face down, and slowly reached the side of the boat. We fished him up, only to find out that the young man was dead.

His face was pale, his eyes were tightly closed, and the teeth in his mouth were clenched tightly, biting the demon suppression talisman. The strangest thing was that he was carrying a tin box in his hand.

We laid the young man flat on the boat, Ah Hui compared his snort with his hand, felt his pulse again, shook his head and said, "It's hopeless." ”

Such a fresh life, that is, people will be gone in ten minutes, I am a little panicked, and my heart is not a taste.

Looking at Ah Hui and another soldier, it seems that they don't take this seriously, maybe they are used to seeing life and death and are used to it.

Ah Hui pinched the deceased's mouth with both hands, trying to make his mouth open and spit out the demon suppression talisman inside. Another soldier was snapping the dead man's fingers to remove the tin box.

The deceased's body was stiff when he died, I don't know if it was because of the cold water or what, all the joints were like unoiled bearings, and there was really no way to break them for a while and a half, and they couldn't be broken at all.

These two people tossed at the corpse, and I couldn't stand it, so I said: "I'll overdo it in a while, this person died in vain, maybe the resentment is hard to get rid of." ”

Hearing me say this, the two of them stopped.

I looked at the tin box, which had handles and chains attached to it. Ah Hui and I looked at each other, and we stood up and put away the iron chain, which was extremely long, and slowly pulled it out of the water and dragged it to the boat. Collecting it, we saw the clue that the other end of the chain on the iron box was actually tied to the ankle of the female corpse.

It turned out that the female corpse was tied to this iron box.

We were all stunned, and Ah Hui muttered, "It turns out that the chain on the female corpse's feet is tied to this tin box. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the female corpse actually moved, rubbing down the bow of the lifeboat little by little, as if the bow was too slippery, and the corpse was about to fall back into the water.

Ah Hui's hands and eyes were quick, and he stepped over with an arrow, holding down the female corpse and yelling with sweat: "Quick, come and help!" ”
