Chapter 18: There Are Demons Underwater

The county magistrate of Luoyang County grabbed a bamboo raft and laboriously rescued a person who was unable to walk in the water.

"Your Majesty has an order, the shower is coming to the city, the flood is coming, and the people of the capital are ordered to store food, don't go out!" A small official stood on a bamboo raft and staggered.

The county commander dragged the little official aside and asked him to grasp the bamboo pole on the bamboo raft. Then he took a deep breath and shouted in a loud voice: "Stay at home honestly, the imperial court will soon have disaster relief materials delivered to your home." Don't sneak out if there's no urgency, if you fall into the water, no one will save you! ”

"Lord Fuzun, when will this rain stop?" The little official was already drenched, and when the cold wind blew, he couldn't help but shiver.

The county magistrate wiped a handful of rain from his head, looking at the neighborhoods under the hazy rain, his brows were always in a state of frowning.

The flood came too suddenly.

As the imperial capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the drainage facilities in the Shendu City have always been the most complete. Officials from the Qiuguan Yamen repair these drains every year, and Luoyang County often sends people to clean up the sludge from the drains.

There is only one possibility that such a flood can already exceed the drainage capacity of the ditches in the Divine Capital City.

The county magistrate let the little official next to him row a small boat and continue to drive forward.

The water flooded many places, but fortunately, the terrain of the entire Shendu City was relatively high, except for some low houses that were covered by water, the rest of the places were still intact.

Goo, goo!

There was a place ahead, and a ripple appeared, spreading in all directions. There is a faint human hand, sticking out of the water and hiding it.

"Go over there and see, someone might be drowning!" The prefectural commander commanded his men to row over.

A small official grabbed the hand under the water and lifted it upwards vigorously. But the hand was not as heavy as expected, and with a slight tug, the whole arm was completely lifted up from the water.

It's a broken arm.

The little official screamed and threw the broken arm aside, if it wasn't for someone behind him to help him, I am afraid he would have fallen directly.

The county commander's eyes narrowed into a slit and began to look at the arm. From his experience, this was definitely not due to the flood.

He speculated that someone might have taken advantage of the flood to kill the others. In such a chaotic place, only a few people were saved, and many people were directly washed away by the current.

"It is estimated that it is a homicide case, at this time, let's not care about these people, keep our arms, and wait until this flood is over before dealing with it!" The county magistrate quickly made a decision, and now the entire county government has been sent out to rescue people and provide disaster relief, and there is no time to care about any murders.

The boat continued to row forward, but at this moment, something happened.

No matter how the little official rowed the oars, the whole raft could not move in the slightest.

"Below...... Something seems to be entangled! The little officer rowed hard, but he couldn't move.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden banging sound, and in his frightened gaze, the entire bamboo raft was directly overturned in the water.

The county commander was shocked, and he suddenly felt that a person appeared in front of him.

Subconsciously, he regarded this person as a small official who came with him, and was just about to ask, when he suddenly saw the "person" standing in front of him.

This is clearly a strange person covered in scales, and he may be able to maintain his human appearance, but the county order can determine that this is definitely not a normal person.

The cyan scales glowed with a strange brilliance, and the head of this strange man, the size of two ordinary people, was pressed against the head like a huge oval.

But the strange thing is his body, although the head of this man is large, the body is a very thin and deformed body.

This kind of horror is really hideous and terrifying, and when the county commander saw what was in the strange man's hand, his heart trembled even more.

That's the head of the little official!

Can't stay here anymore, the county commander gritted his teeth and kicked forward, kicking the weird man hard. The strange man seemed to have a layer of scale armor on his body, and the county spirit felt that his boots were kicked in a place as solid as a wall, and he couldn't shake it at all.

He was deep in the water, and he felt a resistance all over his body, which prevented him from moving dexterously.

The monster seemed to have seen the prefectural order's movements, and he cut through the water, grabbed the prefectural commander's neck with two arms, and pulled him out of the water.

The county commander struggled desperately, but unfortunately those two hands were like iron pincers, no matter how he broke free, it was to no avail.

"Giggle......

The prefectural commander's tongue was about to spit out, and his consciousness was gradually blurred.

His fists and kicks still used the last of their strength to slap the strange man's body.

Heavy rain is already falling.

There was a sudden pause in the sound of the rain, and then a sound pierced the air.

Sou!

The arrow pierced straight through the gill of the stranger's ear, and a little blood rushed away, and then a long chain slammed into the stranger's head.

This strange man's head was like a broken watermelon, which exploded directly, and sprinkled the county order all over his body.

The county commander's eyes were wide open, and he didn't react until someone dragged him behind him. Just as he was about to scream, he heard a rough voice from behind him: "You are the county magistrate of Luoyang County?" ”

The county magistrate shuddered, and he was dragged directly onto a boat.

Now that the whole god is in turmoil, there is water everywhere, and such a ship can also roam the streets and alleys.

The county commander turned his head and saw a group of sergeants in black armor behind him, and he didn't know which one it was, and replied, "I am." ”

A man who looked like a military attache said: "You send someone to inform the people to hide in their homes, clean up the stagnant water, and never go out!" There are a lot of monsters under this water! ”

As he spoke, a sergeant stabbed downwards with a harpoon in his hand.

As a burst of jet-black blood filled the water, another corpse covered in scaly armor appeared.

A trace of fear flashed in the county commander's eyes, and his lips trembled: "This and this...... What kind of monster is this? ”

The military attache said, "This is called a kappa, also known as a water tiger." If the county government wants to send someone out, you must prepare a knife. If you do, just stab them on their fins, which are softer. ”

At this time, another boat came, and under the escort of a sergeant, the county commander left in a hurry.

"Lord Shaoqing, there is news from the east that there is a big demon haunting!" A sergeant stepped on the eaves and shouted at the military attachΓ©.

The military attache slowly raised his head, and under the iron helmet, it was Jing Liang's face covered with stubble.

The tiredness in his eyes could not be concealed, and since the heavy rain had fallen, many monsters had appeared in the river outside the city.

I didn't sleep for a few days and nights, no matter who it was, I couldn't hold it anymore.
