Chapter 21: The Ghoul Water Beast
Li Dawei's wife screamed in horror, tears flowing: "What are you going to do? Let me go! Bastard! What are you going to do to me? Ahh
Li Dawei's eyes were fierce, and he used a dagger to make a deep cut in each of his wife's two palms, and blood flowed out in an instant, and his wife struggled while screaming in pain.
Li Dawei held his wife down and put her hands on the side of the boat, letting the blood in her palms drip into the water.
"It's so brutal! It's just brutal! How could he treat his daughter-in-law like this? I gritted my teeth and scolded, I can't see a big man bullying a woman, and he is about to rush up as soon as his head is hot.
Black Sunglasses grabbed me and whispered in my ear, "Don't go!" That old man with a goatee isn't so simple! ”
I gritted my teeth angrily: "What blood? This is simply a sign of ignorance! What age is this, I didn't expect there to be such stupid people! ”
Black Sunglasses said, "Can you be quieter?" ”
I said hatefully, "What? Are you afraid that they won't hear it? I'd rather be louder! I'm going to wake up these ignorant idiots! Otherwise, I don't know how many more people will suffer! ”
"Hey! Feed! Stop scolding, look! Look! "A couple of our little policemen tugged at my arm.
There are really many things in this world that we can't explain with science, Li Dawei's approach seems ridiculous and ignorant, but everyone was surprised to find that after the blood dripped into the water, those floating corpses seemed to be stimulated by some kind of force, and they slowly drifted away with the water waves, and no longer blocked the way.
I watched this scene with my mouth open in a daze, and I couldn't scold anymore.
Li Dawei's wife also stopped crying, she got up from the ground, pointed at Li Dawei's nose and scolded: "Why don't you cut your palm? Are you still a man? ”
Li Dawei saw the floating corpses disperse at this time, and he was not as excited as before, and explained: "This is what Uncle Jiu ordered!" Uncle Nine said, these things were provoked by you, a dead old woman, and it was you who offended the Sea Rakshasa, so we can only use your blood to atone for the Sea Rakshasa and ask the Sea Rakshasa to forgive us! ”
The fleet was finally able to set sail again, and I secretly exclaimed in my heart: I didn't expect that there were so many strange things on the lower tip of this ancient nine rivers, and I was really eye-opening when I came out this time, and it seems that those old water ghosts at home have not told me enough about it since I was a child.
When I was a child, I often heard my grandfather say that there are many taboos and rules for walking on the lower tip of the Jiuhe, and there are many strange customs and ghostly and bizarre myths and legends, which have added a lot of mystery to the ancient Haihe River and are an important part of the old Tianjin Wei culture.
Of course, before I walked the lower reaches of the Nine Rivers, although I had heard a little about these customs and taboos, I never thought that these ancient customs and taboos would be so magical, until I saw them with my own eyes in the past few days, I knew that these customs and taboos on the Haihe River were not groundless, and their circulation had their own truth, which made me have a little more awe of this ancient river.
Just as the fleet was about to sail into the cave outside, there were screams of terror ahead.
I lowered my oars, stood on tiptoe, and looked at the water in confusion: "What the fuck is going on?" ”
The searchlights on the ship lit up at the same time, and several dazzling beams swept across the water, and under the illumination of the searchlights, we were horrified to find hundreds of strange rat-like creatures suddenly appearing in the surrounding waters.
They were the size of a calf, not at all like the rats we usually see, and they were snow-white, and their white hair was wet and sticky, which was very ugly.
The eyes of those things turned out to be eeriely scarlet, and the long fangs pierced the lips, exposing them like scimitars, flashing with a terrifying cold light. There was a constant popping sound on the water, and these terrible white creatures sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and pounced on the floating corpses floating on the water.
My eyes widened in disbelief: "Holy, this ...... Are these really rats? What did this grow up eating? ”
Even Ming Che and a few little policemen were shocked by the scene in front of them, opened their mouths, and did not make a sound.
The people on the boat were going crazy, and some people couldn't help but yell: "Fuck it! What the hell is this place? ”
Looking at the white beasts surging around me, my heart trembled wildly, what are these little white beasts? What is this cave? Why is there such a huge herd of beasts besides countless drifters? It's all so weird, I desperate to get out of here, far away from here.
The next scene made us even more disgusted and frightened, only to see those little white beasts frantically pounce on the floating corpses on the water, they opened their fanged mouths, and devoured the river drifters, as if in their eyes, those river drifters were the most delicious food.
The little beasts slashed through the corpses with their sharp teeth, and the oil and internal organs flowed out, and the cave was immediately filled with a disgusting putrid smell. Some people with a slightly worse psychological tolerance can't help but lie on the side of the boat and vomit.
Even more terrifying, the little white beasts not only devoured the dead bodies, but also quickly gathered on our ship, apparently preparing to attack the people on board. Hundreds of small white beasts quickly gathered around the ship, and when we came back to our senses and tried to start the ship, we found that the ship was no longer able to move, and it was surrounded on all sides by the ghosts.
I retreated back to the cabin in horror: "! What the hell are these weird rats? ”
Black Sunglasses said with a solemn expression: "If I'm not mistaken, these should be corpse-eating water beasts!" ”
I looked at the black sunglasses in amazement: "What? Ghoul Water Beasts? ”
Black Sunglasses looked solemn, pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and said: "This kind of corpse-eating water beast usually lives in mass graves or ancient tombs where a large number of dead bodies are buried, and lives by eating the dead corpses of various people and animals. Over time, a large amount of corpse poison will accumulate in their bodies. Under the influence of corpse venom, these things will appear genetic mutations, their hair will turn white, their size will grow wildly, and they will even go berserk and attack all other creatures. ”
Before Black Sunglasses could finish speaking, he heard someone shouting outside: "Come out and help, these rats are about to climb onto the boat!" ”
We were startled and quickly picked up the guy and rushed out of the cabin.
Lian Mingche and I took a oar, and Black Sunglasses took out the short knife that was used to dissect the corpse cocoon before, and he warned us: "Don't be bitten by these corpse-eating water beasts, otherwise you may be infected with corpse poison, and even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save you at that time!" ”
We nodded nervously, our palms already overflowing with cold sweat.
"Fuck you!" We confronted those water beasts for a long time, and finally someone couldn't help it, raised his old shotgun, pointed it at the head of a corpse water beast, and pulled the trigger at close range.
I heard a thud, and the head of the corpse-eating water beast burst open, and the foul-smelling slime splattered in all directions.
Not to be outdone, we picked up our hands and attacked the herds of beasts that tried to climb up the hull.
Lian Mingche raised his oars, spotted a fat ghoul water beast, and stabbed it down.
The tip of the oar was sharp, piercing through the corpse's body, pinning it to the deck. The ghoul crunched and struggled twice before quickly falling silent.
I frowned: "What now, there are too many of these things, if it is like the floating corpses that night, it will be difficult to get out." ”
Lian Mingche wiped the sweat on his face and said, "I can't care so much about it first, how much can I kill!" Hey, there's a couple of them up there! ”
Lian Mingche stretched out his hand, and I raised the oars, and with a "sweep of thousands of troops", I picked up the five or six corpse-eating water beasts that climbed into the hull of the boat and fell into the water.
The two of us held sticks in our hands, like whack-a-moles, and whenever a ghoul's head popped out of the side of the ship, the oars in our hands fell to the ground. With a smash, the corpse-eating water beasts plopped and fell into the water.
Rao is a struggle to resist, and the beasts have no intention of backing down, killing and death only make them even more crazy. They are like warriors who are not afraid of life and death, when one falls, one will immediately make up for it, one after another, no matter how they kill, they can't finish killing, it makes people's scalp tingle.
The oars in our hands have been gnawed by the rats, and these things are not only crazy, but also have unusually sharp teeth, and if this situation continues, the herd will sooner or later rush into the boat.
Now the four ships on the water are surrounded by herds of beasts, and the ships cannot take care of each other, so they can only fight alone, and the situation is very serious.
