Chapter 6 Sewers

"What are you doing, sir?" A voice asked.

Wang Xu looked back and saw that it was a police uncle.

"Hmm...... Amazing view ......"

"This time? By the river? The policeman's uncle looked at Wang Xu very suspiciously: "Can you take a look at your documents?" ”

There is no need to think that Wang Xu knew that it was the conspicuous green kerosene lamp in his hand that recruited him, so he reluctantly took out his ID and handed it to the policeman, and the other party carefully observed it under the light.

After a while, the police returned the document to Wang Xu: "Thank you for your cooperation, sir, no matter what you are doing, I suggest you stay away from this river, the light is not good around here, and there have been several incidents of falling into the water recently." ”

Wang Xu said in his heart: Isn't this what I'm here for?

"Okay, I'll be leaving soon." Wang Xu replied.

The policeman straightened the brim of his hat, waved his hand at Wang Xu, and left. Wang Xu watched his back fade away, until the light of the kerosene lamp was so faint that he couldn't see it, and then he let out a long breath.

He had just relaxed for three seconds, and the policeman's voice came from behind him: "Hey! Mr! How are you there! ”

Wang Xu turned his head with an inexplicable expression: "Hey...... You didn't just come in that direction......" he said, gesturing behind him.

The policeman interrupted Wang Xu in a slightly annoyed tone: "What are you talking about, I've been away from you for at least fifteen minutes, by the way, how did you come in front of me?" ”

Wang Xu looked at the direction he had left just now, and muttered in a low voice, "He walked along the embankment in that direction for fifteen minutes, and then appeared from the other side of me...... And I've only been here for a few seconds, is this time and space confusion a ghost realm......"

The policeman could not understand Chinese and continued to ask, "Sir, what are you doing here?" Do you want me to send you away? ”

The corners of Wang Xu's mouth suddenly flashed with a sneer: "You act very similarly, but unfortunately you can't fool me." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"You turned into the policeman, and you deliberately came over and said this, trying to make me feel weird and scared, and then walked with you."

"Are you crazy?"

"Hmph...... If I turn around and run along the river now, I can immediately catch up with the policeman, and you won't have to do it again. ”

The "policeman" didn't say anything more, he suddenly turned his head and ran, Wang Xu's reaction and speed were no longer comparable to ordinary people, he chased after him very easily, blocked in front of the other party, held his shoulder with one hand and said: "No matter what you are, just arrest it." ”

But to Wang Xu's surprise, something happened quickly, there was a wet touch on his hand, and then the policeman easily broke free from Wang Xu's grip like a loach and jumped straight into the river.

Wang Xu traced the spiritual sense, and found that the other party moved extremely fast after entering the river, which was by no means a speed that a human swim could reach. However, he was not in a hurry, and after reciting a few incantations, he also jumped into the river.

The green kerosene lamp is still in Wang Xu's hands, even at the bottom of the river is still not extinguished, Wang Xu's new water dividing spell is obviously very effective, and it can be completely done in the water without getting wet, but he feels that it is really cumbersome for the cat master to let him bring a lamp, and it has no effect except to attract the police, and he can't throw it on the shore, otherwise if the policeman comes back from the patrol just now, he may call a few boats to salvage Wang Xu's body......

In about five minutes, the fleeing spirit stopped and turned to a higher place, this part of the road Wang Xu took three times as long to arrive, after all, Wang Xu did not know any other swimming posture except for the dog planing pose, if he hadn't used the water separation spell and the breath-holding charm at the same time, he might have drowned him in the pool.

Wang Xu found an outlet for a sewer at the bottom of the river, and it was here that the "policeman" turned, and he didn't care about getting dirty, so he swam straight into it, and this section of pipe was quite narrow at first, until he swam more than 20 meters before it became a little wider. Wang Xu could feel that this was a sloping road, and he continued to swim, and found that the water was getting less and less, and a little further, Wang Xu could already stand and walk.

The water level stretched from his chest to his waist, and finally only near his knees, Wang Xu lifted the spell, picked up the lamp and began to observe the surrounding environment, the sewers were naturally very dirty, the filth under his feet emitted a pungent stench, and the turbid water was floating on the food scraps, household garbage, and many other things that made people vomit just thinking about it.

Wang Xu was getting closer and closer to that spiritual sense, and he could feel that the other party was just around the corner in front of him. Since the green light in his hand had already revealed his position, Wang Xu also walked over directly, guarding against the other party's possible attack at any time.

Turning that corner, when the "police uncle" just now entered Wang Xu's sight again, he was very surprised, because at this moment what he saw was no longer a person, but something that could only appear in fairy tales - a mermaid.

She curled up in a corner, holding something in her hands and stuffing it into her mouth, to say that the mermaid's appearance was really far from the image of the masses.

The burgundy hair had now turned dirty and brown, hanging down like a mass of seaweed, long enough to her waist, just enough to cover her face and upper body, and her exposed shoulders, her skin was already dirty and black, and she could faintly see many pus-draining sores in the sludge-like epidermis.

The tail of the lower body was even more miserable, all the scales were a dull black-gray color, and many of them were turned up, revealing the flesh inside. If it is as painful for a fish to turn up a scale as it is for a human being to turn up a fingernail, then the mermaid in front of Wang Xu is undoubtedly suffering unimaginably great.

Wang Xu approached step by step, and he saw clearly what the other party was gnawing, a piece of bread that had become moldy. The mermaid also raised her head to look at Wang Xu, it was a miserable face, almost covered with rotten sores, and her facial features were distorted.

She was weeping, and the voice in her throat was thick and hoarse like a man: "I...... Just hungry...... Please...... Don't kill me...... I beg you ......"

Wang Xu didn't know if this was the other party's bitter ploy, he glanced to the side twice, and saw human bones, a pile of bones that had been gnawed until only ribs remained.

"It seems that there is a big human meat meal on your menu......" Wang Xu said coldly.

She covered her face with her hands and cried so much that she looked so uncomfortable that she could barely speak.

Wang Xu's Black Flame short sword appeared on his right hand, and with a slight wave, his task tonight was completed, but he hesitated, and another person appeared in front of him, it was a werewolf whose arms had been cut off, He Jiamu.

In the face of a cruel fate, if you choose to survive, you will have to pay a painful and high price......

"Perhaps, death is the only way for you to be liberated." Wang Xu said this, and raised his sword......
