Chapter 743: Water Ghost

After the tooth was pulled out by me, the wound on the left palm began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, Lin'er's eyes became wider and wider, and the person became more and more energetic.

I asked Lin'er if there was a Gu worm that could be used to stabilize her mind, and Lin'er said yes, but that thing didn't work for me. I asked Lin'er to give her a Gu for herself, I can use the Divine Fixation Technique to protect my mind, and I don't need Gu to do blessings.

But I don't know why, Lin'er didn't move for a long time, I saw that she looked embarrassed, and thought that she might have some hardships that she didn't want to make public, so I was embarrassed to ask more.

When Lin'er's clothes were almost dry, I picked up my flashlight and led her deeper into the river.

When I fell into the water just now, my body was in the water chassis several times, and now I can't recognize the east, west, north and south, plus the magnetic field in this area is very chaotic, and the palladium compass can't be located.

In the future, I will have to modify some palladium compasses, like the current one, which cannot be located as soon as it encounters an anomaly in the Qi field, which is really troublesome.

I didn't feel the slightest evil aura along the river, and I suspected that the reason why the magnetic field in this place was chaotic was not simply due to the influence of the Qi field, or that there might be a magnetic mine at the bottom of the mountain.

Turning a narrow bend along the river, I could faintly see a faint light flickering overhead, so I turned off my flashlight and made a closer look.

Unexpectedly, the flashlight light for an hour, the originally very weak light suddenly became stronger, above our heads is a large piece of inverted hanging stone stalactites, light green light from the river, directly reflected in the inverted hanging stalactite forest, the water waves rippled lightly, and the large green light above the head also followed the ripples.

I was surprised, so I took two steps towards the river, and Lin'er rushed forward and pulled the crook of my arm.

She was still a little uneasy, so I had to go back and give her a smile and tell her that she just had to follow me and not worry about anything else.

Saying these comforting words is actually a dilemma for me, on the one hand, Lin'er's mentality is unstable, and it is not okay to be inconsolable, on the other hand, I am also afraid that if I talk too much, she will have a good impression of me.

In a claustrophobic environment, it is easy for the weak party to become dependent on the strong party, and I think dependence is nothing, but the problem is that this emotion can easily be transformed into other emotions.

If you ask me why I know this kind of thing, don't forget that we are also people who have learned to understand the mind and eye, and we still understand this little bit of psychological try.

Fortunately, Lin'er didn't say anything special, just nodded at me.

I relieved myself a little, turned to the side of the river, craned my neck and looked into the water, and saw that the pebbles in the river were glowing green in the dark environment, as if they had been coated with luminous powder.

Lin'er muttered to herself, "Night Pearl? ”

"It's not a night pearl, it's a cold candle," I said, "these pebbles have been specially treated to separate water and dissolved oxygen, and as long as the oxygen continues, the inside of the stone will continue to burn, and there is a river to cool down, and there is no fear of the stone shell being burned." This is a very rare kind of long-lasting lamp, because the lamp is in the water, and the temperature of the lamp head is not high, so it is called 'cold candle' or 'cold fire' in the mechanism. ”

Lin'er smiled: "You know a lot." ”

I said, "There is a specialization in the art industry, like your Miao Jiang's Gu technique, I don't understand it at all." ”

I'm not a wordy person, and now I'm chatting with Lin'er bit by word, mainly to distract her.

As I spoke, I picked up my flashlight and lit it up the stream.

Normal stream water doesn't hold much oxygen, and it's hard to keep the candle burning for so many years, so I guess there should be vents below the surface of the water to bring in fresh air from the outside to add more nutrients to the stream.

As long as I can find the air port, I can roughly know what kind of arrangement the Jin family has made, after all, it is the entrance and exit of the Qi field circulation, and the five elements near the air port are arranged, which determines what kind of mechanism array there will be in this area, if there is no special arrangement near the air port, there should be no mechanism around.

This so-called air port, the working principle is actually similar to the blower, for example, if the air port is mainly built with moisture-proof wood as the material, the wood makes a fire, there must be a fire array nearby. If it is a metal structure and gold gives birth to water, the old Jin family must have arranged a water array nearby. And so on.

I followed the creek and searched for nearly 50 meters, and I saw two extraordinarily large disturbed pebbles in the stream, each the size of a casserole, and the shape and texture of the two pebbles were also identical.

All the pebbles around him were lit up, but these two stones were so faint that they looked particularly eye-catching.

Lin'er helped me with the light in the back, so I bent down and lifted the two pebbles, and as expected, there was a hole under both stones, and when they were lifted, there were large bubbles coming out of the hole.

I asked Lin'er to shoot the light directly into the hole, and I saw that the hole seemed to be blocked by something, and it looked like a bulging black plastic bag, it didn't completely block the airway in the hole, and there were some gaps left next to it for ventilation.

The thing was too deep into the hole for me to reach, because of the current, even if I threw out gossip money, I might not be able to catch it.

After a moment of contemplation, I finally decided to see what material the airway was made of, and I scraped a little fragment from it with my fangs, and the stone used to build the airway was mixed with a small amount of metal, gravel, and charcoal slag, and at this time it occupied the three rows of metal, earth, and wood.

I felt that something was wrong, and when I carefully lit the wall, I found that the airway near the exit was black, and the deeper part was dark red, because the color was too dull, and I thought it was also black if I didn't look closely.

I couldn't make out the color of the dark red wall just by looking at it, so I stretched out my arm and tried to scrape a piece of it down with my fangs.

In order to be able to get to that area, almost the upper half of my body was submerged in the water, and Lin'er continued to help me light up so that I could see the situation under the water.

When the teeth just touched the dark red wall, I didn't wait to scrape hard, the black shadow blocked in the airway suddenly squirmed, my vision was blocked by my own arm, I didn't see what it was, but I felt a tightness on my wrist, and then there was a strong force pulling my body and forcibly pulling me into the water.

Before entering the water, I shouted, "Stay away!" ”

The thing in the airway was so fierce that it pulled my whole arm in an instant, and I sank into the water, my shoulders and ribs pressed against the entrance of the airway, and it was still pulling me hard, as if it was going to pull me in whole.

With such a thin passage, if I were really pulled in, all the bones in my body would have to be crushed.

I took a desperate breath, stepped on the bottom of the water with one hand and both feet, and then shouted "Get up!" The waist, legs, and shoulders exerted force at the same time, and forcibly pulled outward, and my right hand was pulled out of my airway on the spot, along with the thing that was holding me and I didn't let go.

The guy was very thin, as tall as my waist, covered in black hair, and had a somewhat similar face to a lemur, but with an indescribable hideousness.

It turned out to be a water monkey! This thing is commonly known as the water ghost in the folk, because it often comes out to make trouble, there are many relevant records in various classics, "Shiyangzhi" said that the strength of the water monkey is equivalent to that of adults, but because of the webbing on the hands and feet, and the water is excellent, ordinary people meet them in the water, and there is almost no hope of survival. But the power that just burst out from this water monkey is not just as simple as "on par with an adult".

I shook my hand violently, trying to throw the water monkey to the shore, but it hugged my arm so hard that I couldn't shake it off even twice, and was about to make a shock in my arm when I heard Lin'er behind me let out a scream.

Her voice was very panicked, and my heart trembled, so I quickly looked back and saw that there was another water monkey rushing ashore, holding Lin'er's legs and dragging her into the water.

I didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and quickly spread the clouds and rushed over, aiming at the water monkey is a swing fist, the water monkey may not have expected me to come so fast, flashed, but the reaction was a little slower than half a beat, the temple was firmly punched, and the shock swept down his skin and skull into the brain cavity, and then I heard a muffled sound of "bang", like a piece of soft meat being blown up, the water monkey's body trembled, and a large stream of viscous plasma gushed out along the seven orifices.

I kicked the corpse of the water monkey away, and hurriedly helped Lin'er up, and the water monkey that was still wrapped in my arm just now saw that the situation was not good, and quickly jumped back into the water.

After the water monkey entered the water, the speed was already fast, and I Shi Tengyunbu could only barely catch up, but now Lin'er was holding my waist again, and I dragged such a big living person, the speed was slightly slower than usual, and I could only watch the water monkey escape.

It wasn't until the water monkey jumped into the airway that I sighed and said to Lin'er, "This girl, men and women don't kiss each other." ”

Lin'er quickly let me go, blushing as if something.

At that time, she deliberately took two steps back in order to distance herself from me, the flashlight was still in her hand, and the light shone obliquely on the corpse of the water monkey, reflecting a strangely shaped shadow in the river, but because the water was full of bright cold fire, this shadow was very unclear.

I took the flashlight from Lin'er's hand and lifted the dead water monkey into the air and hit it with light.

The flashlight illuminated the water monkey's chest, and cast a shadow on the rocky beach behind it.

This shadow does not belong to this water monkey at all, it is small and thin, but the shadow is burly and wide, the water monkey only has hair on its body, but the shadow seems to be wearing a long gown from the late Qing Dynasty, and from the outline, this person seems to have a pair of round-framed eyes on his ears.

What's the situation with this special mother? Why did the light hit the water monkey, but it was such a strange shadow.
