Chapter 7 Recovering the Body

Professor Zhang was the first to get into the rubber boat, followed by the four divers, and the three who lived in my house were purely operators, who could not dive, let alone use guns, so they could only work in a hurry on the shore. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info and a rope was tied to the back of the rubber boat, and the head of the rope was tied to a wooden stake on the shore of the pool, and Lao Cai and Xiao Wu were guarding there, and raised their guns flat, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Slowly, the rubber boat began to float towards the middle of the pool, and the bodies of the two divers behind did not float up for a long time, and the sign said that it was likely to be taken by the water monkey as a snack. I hurriedly told him not to talk nonsense, to keep some virtue on his lips, and to be careful that the souls of those people come to you, and the mark is disdainful.

When they were still more than four meters away from the two corpses, the underwater began to change, and I saw that next to the two corpses, small water whirlpools began to appear, as if something was stirring underneath. The two corpses were sucked in by the whirlpool, and began to float back and forth with the waves, looking very frightened, as if they had suddenly come to life.

I was looking at it in amazement, when I suddenly heard a "poof" sound, and I looked at it, and I didn't know what was wrong, on the water next to the two corpses, a water curtain suddenly shot out, like a machine gun bullet slamming into the water, the water curtain rushed straight up, to say the least about ten meters high, and swam around.

Seeing this kind of scene, my face and Biaozi's face darkened all of a sudden, and we looked at each other, unable to say a word, you know, this is what happened to us that day, fortunately the two of us ran fast at that time. But what is the matter with those water curtains? I couldn't help but think of this question again.

One of the divers on the rubber boat was frightened enough, he had obviously never seen such a strange thing, and obviously he couldn't hold his breath, and he picked up his submachine gun and fired at the water curtain, and the bullets splashed in the water. The water monkeys under the water curtain didn't seem to be able to withstand so many bullets, and the water curtain quickly stopped, and I think they should have escaped.

Professor Zhang was also a little nervous at the moment, seeing that there was no change on the water, he said to the diving team members behind: "Be careful, don't let the gun go off, it is estimated that when we get to the corpse, those things will come out to make trouble, you have to look carefully." ”

Three meters, two meters, one meter, soon, the rubber boat floated to the side of the two corpses, suffered a loss, Professor Zhang was not stupid, took out a bamboo pole prepared in advance, and poked a few times next to the corpse, wanting to explore the underwater movement. However, things were not as bad as he had imagined, and the water was still so calm as if nothing was going to happen.

Professor Zhang was still very uneasy, and while urging people to pull the corpse onto the rubber boat, he used a submachine gun to strafe the water indiscriminately, hoping to have a deterrent effect on the water monkeys. It didn't take long for the two bodies to be put on the rubber boat, and looking at the two bodies, one of the divers was frightened, "Ah! A scream.

I thought to myself, could it be that it was the same as the corpse of Erya back then, with only a bloody skeleton left? But how fast can water monkeys eat? According to the comparison of their bodies, it was obviously impossible, but I thought of another possibility, and I couldn't help but tremble a little, if that was the case, it would be terrible.

If there are a large number of water monkeys living in the Black Water Pool, and they are social animals like humans, and the reason why the corpses have become the skeleton shelf in the blink of an eye is because they are eating in groups, then the legend is not credible, and the number of water monkeys in the Black Water Pool is extremely large, not only two or three?

Under the command of Professor Zhang, the rubber boat began to return, and the people on it also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and just as they were relaxing, a diver sitting on the rubber boat suddenly jumped up as if his butt was on fire, and scolded in his mouth: "Dog, there is something under the rubber boat!" ”

When Professor Zhang heard this, he also felt that this thing was unusual, and when he looked back there, he had a panicked look on his face, and hurriedly shouted to Lao Cai: "Pull the rope quickly, the rubber boat is in the water." ”

Lao Cai didn't think about it, united the technicians of the three oceanic bureaus, and began to pull the rope back, seeing that I and Biaozi were still stunned, Lao Cai hurriedly said: "What about watching the show?" Not yet to come and help. ”

Biaozi and I were stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and hurriedly ran over. Pulling the rope of the boat, the rubber boat returned as fast as the seven of us could. However, at this moment, I felt that the strength of my hands was getting stronger and stronger, as if the rubber boat was suddenly much heavier, and the hemp rope was so tight that the skin on my hands was about to be scratched.

When I looked up, I was immediately startled, but I didn't expect that in just a while, the rubber boat sank more than halfway, and the people on it spilled water out, not to mention how dangerous the situation was.

Fortunately, God forbid, the rubber boat finally persevered to the end, as soon as it landed, Professor Zhang was the first to jump up, and the other four people also dragged the corpse and handed it up, and Lao Cai and I hurriedly went up to help. At this moment, the rubber boat finally sank into the water, and disappeared into the water in the blink of an eye, which was really thrilling just now.

After several divers went ashore, their mood was not calmed, looking at the two corpses, they yelled, as if to vent the fear and anger in their hearts, this was not enough, picked up their submachine guns and fired indiscriminately into the waterhole.

These people were on the verge of fear, so no one went over to stop them in case the gun in their hand went off. It wasn't until one of the magazines was fired that a few of them breathed a sigh of relief and threw their guns to the ground, and the person's body was also weak, and he sat down on the ground.

Lao Cai hurriedly asked Professor Zhang, "What happened just now, why did your boat get into the water?" ”

Professor Zhang was also afraid, and tried to calm his mood before explaining: "It was the water monkeys who did it, but I didn't expect them to lurk under our rubber boat when the water curtain was raised. ”

I thought to myself no! Could it be that the beasts are still fighting all over the world? Lao Cai was obviously taken aback, and he probably had similar thoughts to me.

Professor Zhang continued: "Just when I asked you to pull the rope, those guys may have felt the rubber boat accelerate, and there were several of them together, destroying the rubber boat at the same time, and for a time the rubber boat was full of holes and entered a large amount of pool water, which was really dangerous just now!" ”

Lao Cai said in disbelief: "Could it be that these water monkeys planned to "stay" all of you at that time? This...... That's not the kind of thinking that an animal should have, right? ”

Professor Zhang nodded, sighed, and said, "I don't know, but I'm sure that their IQ is definitely above that of monkeys." Speaking of this, Professor Zhang seemed to think of something, and then said to Lao Cai: "Come and see, will the corpses you salvaged in the past look like this?" As he spoke, he approached the two corpses with Lao Cai.

Although the faces of those corpses were hideous and disgusting, people's curiosity came, so I rushed over with Biaozi.

The expressions of the two corpses were the same, although their faces were pale, but they were not like the corpses of Er Ya or Lao Li, neither being eaten into skeletons nor having a frightened expression. The only difference is that there is a black mud in the eyes, mouth, and nose, which should be the mud at the bottom of the pool.

Professor Zhang said: "See, their seven orifices are blocked by the silt at the bottom of the pool, so that their death rate will be aggravated by the lack of oxygen. ”

Lao Cai nodded, also analyzing something, I secretly complained in my heart, this corpse is already "good-looking" compared to Erya, and I don't know what happened to those diving team members, I am afraid that it will be like that, and the physical fitness is really poor.

But if you look closely, this corpse is really a little terrifying, as far as the mud that plugs their seven orifices is concerned, looking at it from a distance, it looks like the seven orifices are bleeding, and it looks eerie. Wrong! At the moment when I was thinking wildly, I suddenly realized that the seven orifices of the two corpses were really bloodstained, and they were flowing down the mud.

Lao Cai also seemed to have discovered this, and he didn't know where he got a small branch, and pointed it at the eye of one of the corpses, and began to tinker. It wasn't until all the mud in his eyes was cleaned that not only me and Biaozi, but even Lao Cai, who had always been calm, gasped at this time.

It turned out that the corpse's eye socket was hollow, and I don't know where the eyeball went? Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but think of my own nightmare, Erya appeared in my dream with a hollow eye. The terrible thing is that Erya's empty eyes seem to be able to see my existence, so that after I am stared at by her empty eyes, I can no longer move, and that kind of hollowness, as if from under the Nine Shadows, I can't see the bottom at a glance, yes, it's empty nothingness.

Thinking of this, my scalp tightened, and my whole body felt like I had taken a sauna, and my whole body was already soaked with sweat.

Although Lao Cai was also afraid, he had seen more dead people, and there was no shortage of some bizarre corpses, so after a moment of adjustment, he returned to his previous calm. He carefully gestured at the empty eye socket, then looked at his thumb again, and finally said, "I guess that's how the water monkey got it into the eye socket after grabbing a handful of mud." As he spoke, he made a gesture of pressing his thumb to his eyes, which means that the dirt inside the eyes of the corpse was pushed into by the water monkey with his thumb.

Professor Zhang's face did not show the meaning of fear, but more of an incredulous expression, he nodded and said, "Hmm! I also think so, these water monkeys are not ordinary ferocious, this creature has been passed down to the world, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. After speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.

But not long after, Lao Cai found a strange thing, it turned out that there were two blood-red holes on the deceased's shark-proof suit, Lao Cai couldn't help but open the corpse's shark-proof suit, and he was surprised to find that at the neck of the deceased, there were two bright red tooth marks, about the thickness of the head of the chopsticks, but it seemed to be very deep.

Lao Cai's brows tightened suddenly, he seemed to be a little still a little convinced of this fact, and then took off the shark suit of the other corpse, and the result was still the same, the same position, the same two tooth holes. Lao Cai said very depressedly: "This group of evil animals is really a bit of a Taoist, and they are like those legendary zombies, picking on the major arteries and blood vessels on people's bodies, what is this for?" Want to suck blood? ”

Professor Zhang nodded and said: "It should be like this, I have seen the tips of their teeth, and when they bit through the rubber boat, although only part of the fangs were exposed, they were half a finger long, and I believe that the length of the whole fangs will not be shorter than the middle finger of an adult." ”

Hearing Professor Zhang say this, cold sweat also oozed from Lao Cai's forehead, a pair of fangs the length of his middle finger, what kind of concept it was He was very clear, as if he had thought of something, and said: "So, this group of water monkeys is similar to the shape of baboons?" Are they close relatives among themselves? ”

Professor Zhang shook his head and said, "I didn't see their appearance clearly at the time, but as far as the problem of fangs is concerned, it should be like this. ”

Everyone discussed for more than an hour, and still did not discuss the results, if according to Lao Cai's guess, assuming that the water monkey and the baboon are similar in form, but the baboon is a land creature and cannot survive in the water, while the water monkey is different, he is an amphibian, not only can be active underwater for a long time, but also can survive out of water.

So we discussed another question, how do water monkeys survive underwater? Could it be that they have evolved organs similar to the gills of fish? However, this is just speculation, whether it is or not, no one dares to make up their minds first, and perhaps the truth will not come out until the mystery of the water monkey is revealed.

After that, Professor Zhang made a phone call to go to the city, and within an hour, a large military truck appeared in front of us, and a few soldiers got out of it, but when I saw their olive-colored military uniforms, my mood suddenly fell. Because I am also a soldier, I can see at a glance what the olive green symbolizes, which is the greatest ideal of a soldier - special forces.

After waiting for more than two hours, the bodies of the two divers never surfaced again, and Professor Zhang immediately confirmed that the bodies might not surface again, and then ordered the special soldiers to carry the two bodies recovered onto the military truck.

In the end, what Professor Zhang and the head of the group of special soldiers were talking about, the distance was a little far, and we couldn't hear it at all, only to see Professor Zhang sign a folder, and then the special soldier gave Professor Zhang a military salute, and then, as when they came, the group of elite soldiers quickly finished everything and left again.

Seeing our curiosity, Professor Zhang explained, "There are some things that you must find very strange, but I can reveal a little bit to you, but you have to keep it secret for me. A few of us nodded in agreement.

Looking at the four divers sitting on the lawn stupidly, Professor Zhang continued: "Actually, those divers were all sent by the navy to assist us, so if they have an accident, the military will send someone to deal with it, and you don't need to be surprised. ”

Now I thought of something, no wonder the divers just now seemed a little excited, and even couldn't control themselves, it turned out that the dead were their comrades, no wonder they were so painful.

The meaning of the word "comrade-in-arms" is far from being as simple as people think, it is a group of people who have grown up in hardships, they are not good at words, but after a long time together, they are willing to lay down their lives for their companions.

Therefore, as a soldier, the most painful thing is not death, but watching your comrades die in front of your eyes one by one, but you can't do anything, which is why those two divers jumped into the water desperately to salvage the bodies of their comrades.
