Chapter 6: The Pathfinder

Behind me, a thumb-thick black mud pellet exploded with a thud, turning into a thin layer of mud covering the ten fingers of my hands.

My hands instantly became gentle, like a pair of warm gloves.

My hands immediately became nimble again, and as I dived deeper and deeper, the water became colder and colder.

Bang bang!

A string of black mud balls exploded behind me, turning into layers of thin mud film covering every corner of my body.

It's like I'm wearing a close-fitting warm film, and I don't feel a trace of cold at all in this deep pool.

After diving for another pillar of incense, finally, a little red light was released from the bottom of the pool, a little red light like blood.

I was overjoyed, and immediately adjusted my body and swam towards that little bit of bloody red light.

On a rock at the bottom of Qianzhang Pond, a black wooden ship was broken in two from the middle, the black wooden boat was very tall and large, like a cracked hill, I had never seen such a large black wooden ship.

It was an oversized blackwood galleon, so rotten that it seemed that it only took a breath to blow it to fall apart in an instant, and on the deck of the blackwood galleon stood six masts, on which hung a mass of black, oil-stained sails.

The tattered sailcloth of the ship, broken into one by one, hung on the six broken masts, the largest piece of tattered sail, is a blood skull totem, this blood skull totem is missing a small half of the face, it looks even more weird, hideous and terrifying!

The whole ship was rotten to words, the hull was covered with thick moss, and I don't know how many years the ship had sunk here.

And the most shocking thing about this big black wood ship is the torn wound in the middle of it, as if it was torn in half by something huge from the middle of the big ship, and the black wood thorns protruding from half of the wound are just the place where the other side is recessed, and the whole black wood ship has a little wood bark at the bottom of it.

A little bit of blood shot out from the torn bottom of the ship, and at the bottom of this dark pool, it was so eye-catching that you couldn't see it without seeing it.

Without the slightest hesitation, I swung my arms and dived from the middle of the tear towards the bottom of the boat directly below.

The moment I swam into the fracture of the hull, the light and shadow shook, and a bloody light came down from the top of my head, and I saw that the rotten wooden strips on both sides were full of white bones, some of which were hanging on the hemp rope and aquatic plants, swinging around, as if they were swinging.

For these lifeless rotten bones, although I Mo Jiang will also feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, but I Mo Jiang is not afraid of them, I Mo Jiang is the king of the river, not a coward.

For encountering this kind of thing underwater, there is a saying among the fishermen in Sili and Wuxiang: shaking is nothing, you can roar and scream, and you can say that human words are the most terrible, either water ghosts or evil.

According to the experience of fishermen, if you encounter a wobble white bone under the water, it is likely to be caused by external reasons such as water flow and aquatic weeds, so you don't have to panic when you encounter this kind of thing, otherwise you will scare yourself, under the water, sometimes you will be scared of your own life, and you only need to deal with this dead thing calmly, you can resolve it, you should touch the fish, you should catch the shrimp and catch the shrimp, in short, what to do, just be invisible.

And if you encounter the kind of roaring and screaming under the water, there is no need to be overly frightened, it is very likely that there are some frogs, hermit crabs, baby salamanders and other creatures, occupying the skull as their home, so they will make all kinds of strange sounds, then you have to stop and carefully identify this sound, some brave and experienced fishermen can even catch all kinds of rare aquatic products according to this movement.

And the most terrible thing is to encounter the kind of skeleton that can speak human words, this kind of thing fishermen are not afraid, if you really encounter any bad luck one day, don't listen to the other party say any nonsense, you can only turn your head and run, the fish on the waist of the harpoon in your hand or something heavy, throw it away, how fast you can run, encounter this kind of thing that is not a water ghost or a vicious thing, it would be good to be lucky to pick up a life.

It is said that an unlucky fisherman encountered this kind of dirty thing under the water, and because he heard one more nonsense, he never came up from the water again, and the other fishermen who were with this unlucky fisherman were so frightened that they dared to listen to what that thing said, but instead picked up a small life.

Of course, I've heard all of this from others, and I've never seen anything like this before.

However, I had a hunch that I might encounter something inside this wreck, and the thick light of blood that came out of the bottom of the shipwreck alone made me very uneasy, and I was mentally prepared to encounter all kinds of great evil.

I, Mo Jiang, am not stupid, I really can't, I'm ready to slip away at any time.

The place where the red light shines is the bottom of the rear half of the cabin, and I am going to swim to the bottom of the middle of the hull first, and then swim to the bottom of the rear half of the ship's cabin against the breach, I am careful not to touch anything on the hull.

It was eerily quiet, and the blood in front of me was getting thicker, and I was head-down, my body tense, my hands clutching the harpoon, high above my head, my legs swinging, like a loach diving down to the fracture of the hull directly below.

Blood covered my whole body, and it was as if I had just been fished out of the blood.

From my point of view, countless black wooden thorns with interlaced teeth appeared from the torn hull on both sides, like the wide open mouth of a giant beast.

There were a lot of skeletal bones hanging from the black wooden thorns, dangling as if they were alive under the undercurrent caused by the swing of my legs.

I dived straight down with my head down, the fracture in the hull below getting smaller and smaller, and the blood light getting heavier and heavier, and I was like a bird being devoured by a monster.

"Goo-dong!"

Suddenly, a string of large bubbles appeared from the fracture below, and behind the bubbles, a white skeleton of Bai Sensen floated up from the fracture, floated upwards for some distance, and finally hung on a black wooden thorn at the rupture of the ship's hull, swinging around.

I, Mo Jiang, am the king of the river, and a white bone wants to block my Mo Jiang's way, it's ridiculous, I don't care about it, and continue to sneak down.

As I got closer to the rupture of the ship, the blood that shrouded me became thicker and thicker, and I felt like I had entered a pool of blood, and I seemed to smell blood.

Close, close.

"Goo-dong!"

"Goo-dong!"

"Goo-dong!"

A long string of bubbles came out of the broken hull below, and dozens of bones poured up from the bottom of the ship and rushed towards me.

I sneered, and with a slight flick of the fish hairpin I was holding in my hand, I pushed away all the dozens of white bones on the top of my head and continued to dive.

"Wow wow!

Suddenly, a violent baby cry came from the bottom of the cabin.

If it were someone else, in this quiet, strange and terrifying environment, suddenly hearing this heart-rending baby cry, I would definitely be frightened.

Who am I, Mo Jiang, the king of the river, a sound of a baby crying wants me to retreat, no way!

"Hmph, I'd like to see, what the hell is pretending to be a god down there?"

I grabbed my harpoon and sped down.

The baby's cry grew louder and louder, and my ears were buzzing.

On either side of my body, on the torn hull of the ship, the white skeletons hanging from the broken thorns of the black wood were also shaken and swayed, all as if they were alive.

I snorted coldly, and with a sharp swing of the harpoon, like a bamboo pole hitting dates, crackled open a string of 'living' skeletons dangling above my head.

Under a string of skull bones, the blood suddenly condensed, and a large round hole appeared, and the sound of the baby's crying came from this hole.

"Wow!"

I Mo Jiang got into the hole, and then a golden monster fish with four small short legs was kicked out by me.

"Hmph, I already knew that it was your little thing who was making trouble, pretending to be a god in front of your Grandpa Mo Jiang, isn't it a joke?"

I kicked the golden salamander away, looked up, and was shocked.

I actually saw the layers of hanging coffins above Qianzhang Pond, hanging densely above my head.

Above my head, it was like a huge transparent bowl upside down, and this huge bowl was like a whole piece of blood-red amber, and above my head was a blood-colored sky.

Through the blood-colored sky like amber overhead, I can not only see the dense hanging coffins hanging overhead, but I can also see the Mojiang River parked on the edge of Qianzhang Pond.

On the side of the Mojiang ship, Shuangxi and Ah Fa were anxiously poking their heads into Qianzhang Pond, but from the expressions of the two, it was obvious that they didn't see me.

I settled down, and was about to turn my eyes to observe the surrounding situation, when suddenly three 'people' appeared in the sky above Qianzhang Pond, in the center of the hanging coffin group.

I was really taken aback again.

This is suspended in the sky above Qianzhang Pond, the three 'people' in the center of the hanging coffin group, I actually know two!

Aren't these two 'people' I know Fan Crazy and 'Hu Sanniang'?

Fan Maniac is quite normal, except for the white hair on his head that has grown a lot, there is no other change, but the 'Hu Sanniang' turned out to be half human and half snake at this time, with a human head and a snake body, and a pair of bat wings on the snake.

Fan Maniac can actually fly, and Hu Sanniang turned out to be a half-human, half-demon monster, I was shocked in my heart.

In addition, there is a weirdly dressed weird man who wears a bronze mask.
