Chapter 117: Water Disaster
The further we went, the heavier the rain became. After a while, there was already water under our feet! The lantern in our hands was already soaked with rain. Even so, it was the faint light of this little lantern that illuminated the path under our feet! Let us not be lost in this darkness.
We walked forward for a while, and the rain was still falling, and it was still darker all around us, and by this time, the water from the rain had risen to our knees.
Kuanzi said, when the hell will this rain stop!
I said, I guess it can't be stopped, you see the rain now, it's getting heavier and heavier!
Hiroko said, I feel like we are trapped in a cauldron, and the people on it keep sprinkling water into the pot, and when the water is full, it is time to start a fire.
Seeing that the water in the ground is getting higher and higher, this moment has reached our waists. And the water was so cold that it was like ice water, so cold that the four of us couldn't help shivering from time to time.
Seeing that if we walked any further, the water would drown us, Tie Ying stopped and said, "Let's get ready to swim!" I don't think the rain will stop, the water will only rise higher and higher!
I listened and said, such a big place, don't you even have a drainage system!
Hiroko said, drainage system? Dream on, Counselor Pan. I guess this place was deliberately built to rectify people, the black and numb rain all day long, the rain is still very fucking cold, stay for a long time and not be drowned, but I'm afraid that I will be cold to death!
Although we stood still, the water rose very fast, and by this time the water had reached our necks.
Fortunately, we came out well prepared this time and brought water life jackets! Hiroko and I were about to open our backpacks and take out the life jackets for everyone to put on, but we heard a roar behind us, followed by a rumbling footsteps, as if a beast was walking towards us.
Kuanzi listened and said, what the hell is this voice.
I said, I don't know what it is, but I can tell from its cry that it must be hungry, and I guess it will come out to find dinner.
Xiaoxue listened and said, don't scare me.
Before she could finish speaking, we heard a wheezing sound behind us, and we looked back to see two bright lights moving towards us not far behind us.
Soon those two lights appeared in our visual range.
It turned out to be the eyes of a giant beast. The beast was huge, like a big truck, with two horns on its head, and when it saw us, it threw its long, thick legs and swooped down on us.
As soon as we saw that something was wrong, we only heard Tie Ying shout, dive into the water.
As soon as I heard her say this, I didn't think about it, and instantly dived into the water.
As soon as we reached the bottom of the water, the beast was already in front of us, and it stopped, opened its mouth and roared, and then turned its head and looked around, as if it had not noticed us, and then continued on its way.
When it was far away, I was about to surface, only to find that around us, countless geisms were approaching us.
The spirits were expressionless, and with their arms outstretched, they lunged at us.
We saw it and quickly surfaced.
As soon as our heads came out of the water, we heard only one voice say, "Do you need a boat?"
In front of us, a small boat stopped at some point, and a skeleton on the boat, wearing a hat, wearing a fishing lily, and holding a pair of oars was staring at us!
As soon as we saw it, it was like meeting a savior, and Kuanzi hurriedly said, need, need, just in time! With that, he quickly climbed onto the boat.
Tie Ying and I looked at each other, and it was better to have a boat to sit on than to soak in the water. Although I always feel that it is strange that a boat suddenly appears at this time, but seeing that Kuanzi is on the boat, even if it is a thief ship, we have to get on it. What's more, the skeleton is just one, the four of us, if we really want to do it, we won't suffer!
Immediately, Hiroko pulled the three of us to the boat.
The old man turned the bow of the boat, slid the oars, and the boat slowly moved forward.
The rain continued to fall, and the lanterns in our hands, although soaked in water just now, were still not extinguished. But since getting on the boat, the light of the lantern has become weaker and weaker.
Tie Ying saw it and asked the skeleton, "Boatman, where are we going?"
The skeleton said coldly, where do you want to go!
Xiaoxue said, go back to the world!
The skeleton listened and said, "When you get here, you still want to go back to the world!"
At this time, I only heard Kuanzi suddenly shout, fuck, the boat is leaking, hurry... Find something to plug up!
The four of us listened, and we were in a hurry, trying to find something from our bags to make up for it, but we only heard the skeleton say, no, let's get there.
When we look around, it's dark, and the roots can't tell where we are! But one thing is for sure, the water level here must be deeper than where we were just now.
I just heard the boatman say, I see that you were walking too slowly just now, and everyone can't wait, so I'll come up and give you a ride! Now, sink into this water with me!
As he spoke, he shouted, and grabbed Tie Ying's son with both hands.
Before his hand touched Tie Ying's neck, he saw a bright light fly out and hit the skeleton with a thud. The skeleton let out a scream of "ah", and its body was knocked out, and its entire body instantly fell apart in mid-air, and "poof, puff" fell into the water.
Kuanzi saw it and said angrily, the girl really got on the thief ship! What now?
Tie Ying said, mend the boat, turn around, and let's continue walking!
Immediately, we took out the tools from our bags, removed a life jacket, plugged the gap in the boat, and finally repaired the boat.
Hiroko asked, which way to go!
Tie Ying said, wait. I saw her hang four lanterns on the bow and stern of the boat and on both sides of the boat. Then he said, whichever direction the lantern is the brightest, we will go in which direction!
When we looked at it, we saw that the lantern on the right side of the boat was obviously much brighter than the other three lanterns!
Tie Ying saw it and said, so he went in this direction!
Immediately we turned the bow of the boat, the wide son slid the oars, and the boat went on again.
At this time, only a sigh from the water was heard, and they were leaving!
Just listen to another voice and go and stop them! Don't let them go!
The third voice said, you have the ability, you can go. Don't you look at what that girl is carrying! The old crested man, who had been distracted by her just now.
At this time, only one voice was heard saying, go, let's go up and avenge the old crested man!
The sounds came from underwater, and we could hear them clearly, but we couldn't see where the people were. Suddenly, I saw a gust of wind blowing on the bow of the ship, and the flame of the lantern on the bow of the ship dimmed instantly. Tie Ying looked at it and said, turn left!
Hiroko listened, and quickly turned the bow to the left! The flame of the lantern on the bow of the ship returned to normal in an instant.
At this moment, I saw one by one the spirits floating out of the water, their faces glowing green, their eyes red, and slowly surrounding us.
It's arguably the most horrific and eerie scene I've ever seen in my life.
At this time, I only heard a wandering spirit say, since they have all descended to the Heaven of Hatred, do you still want to go back? I tell you, that's impossible.
The other said, "Yes!" And if you want to go out, it's better to stay and accompany your sister. Little fat man, don't worry, my sister will treat you well.
Hiroko listened and said, fuck, is she talking to me.
I said, not with you, but with me. Ya must have taken a fancy to you, and wants to keep you as a husband of the village. Commander Liang, at the moment our situation is grim, or I will sacrifice your ego and achieve everyone, so let's get rid of her.
Kuanzi listened to it and said angrily, let your mother's bullshit go!
At this time, I only heard the wandering spirit just now say again, little fat man, I'm here.
As soon as its words fell, I saw a pair of miserable white hands, slowly stretching out from the water behind Kuanzi.
As soon as I saw it, I quickly shouted, Kuanzi be careful.
Before I could finish my words, I saw that the hands had quickly grabbed Kuanzi's shoulders.
As soon as I saw that Kanko was about to get cold, I rushed to Kuanzi to try to hold him back, lest he be dragged into the water by the geist.
But before I could catch Kuanzi, I saw a bright light coming from Tie Ying's body, along the red cloth, and quickly transmitted to Kuanzi's body. Immediately afterwards, Kuanzi's whole body flashed, and the geist let out a miserable scream, and in an instant, the hands were shocked and flew out, and the bones in the hands were shattered and fell into the water.
Kuanzi reacted when he saw this, and said, What is the situation I rely on.
Tie Ying thought about it, picked up the necklace that the old Baotou gave her on her chest, and said, It seems that with this necklace, these geists will be shocked away as soon as they touch us.
Kuanzi listened and said, then what are we afraid of, rush!
As he spoke, he shook his oars and rowed forward.
Sure enough, the wandering spirits that stood in front of us saw us and got out of the way, but they still followed behind our ship without giving up.
We had been driving for a short time when we saw a bright light not far ahead.
Seeing this, Kuanzi slowed down the ship and said, "This can't be the eyes of some kind of monster."
Tie Ying observed for a while and said, it shouldn't be. It's stationary, maybe it's an exit.
We couldn't help but get excited. Hiroko and I rowed the boat hard and rushed forward.
After a while, we saw the bright spot clearly, and it was indeed an exit. We don't know where it leads, but a place with light is better than a place with darkness.
Hiroko and I were about to work harder and rush to the exit, but we heard a voice behind us shouting, "Little fat man, run, the Soul Eater is coming, ah............ It was the voice of the wandering spirit who was about to flirt with Kuanzi just now.
We looked back and saw the huge monster, which had disappeared behind us silently.
I saw that its big mouth opened and closed, and in an instant, dozens of those geists who followed us were swallowed by it. When the other spirits saw this, they only screamed in fright and dived into the water.
All of a sudden, we were the only ones left on the water.
The beast suddenly lost its target, and could not help but be annoyed, only to see him shake his head, open his bloody mouth, and suddenly bounce to the ground, and his body was volleyed into the air, and he pounced on us.
When we saw it, we were only frightened, and Hiroko and I rowed desperately with our sculls, and Tie Ying and Xiaoxue also found two pieces of wood and rowed desperately.
We're all eager to fly straight to that exit.
At this moment, I heard a loud pop, and the body of the giant beast had fallen from the air into the water.
At that time, its bloody mouth was only 0.05 kilometers away from the stern of our ship.
We all thought that this time was going to be its meal.
Unexpectedly, his huge body fell into the water, setting off a huge wave that pushed our boat through that exit in an instant.
I just felt a light in my eyes, and the boat had flown out of the exit.
