Chapter 50: Getting on board
Jiang Xi squatted at the water's edge, flashlight, and slowly swept across the water. The water was very calm, with only occasional ripples. Every now and then, a dark wind came from above us, and it seemed that there were vents above.
Jiang Xi hit the flashlight upward, but this place was hollowed out, forming a huge hole, and the flashlight could not hit the top at all, and naturally he could not see the scene above. I looked at it for a while, and said in my heart: If this water can really corrode living creatures, what if the people of Yumen want to enter the 'secret palace'?
There must be a way to cross the waters safely, right?
Just thinking about it, Jiang Xi's light hit the position on our left hand side against the stone wall, and as soon as it passed, a large thing was suddenly revealed in the darkness. Tang Linlin, who had become a little silent since what happened just now, couldn't help but exclaim when she saw this thing: "Wow, there is actually a boat here?" Let's take a boat? ”
I saw that on the water on our left hand, there was a shuttle boat, which was not big, crowded and sitting, and should be able to accommodate five or six people. The color of the hull is quite gorgeous, the vermilion is brushed with colored paint, I don't know if someone often touches up the paint, the boat is soaked in the water without the slightest state of paint stripping, as if it has just been brushed out, the color of the big red, suddenly appeared in the dark, it looks particularly eye-catching, setting off the surrounding darkness, and there is a strange atmosphere.
We were surprised that there would be a boat in this place, but when we thought about it, it seemed to be a matter of course.
If you don't wear it, how can the people of Yumen get past by themselves?
But if you put the boat here, outsiders can take a boat directly, so isn't the rotten water in this pool useless?
This is really a contradiction, before I can figure it out, Jiang Xi took two steps back slightly, followed by a run-up, three big steps, and the whole person flew and jumped, and actually jumped directly onto the crimson boat.
Suddenly, the small shuttle boat swayed, and the calm of the water was broken.
Jiang Xi maintained the posture of falling off the boat and half-knelt, grabbing the side of the ship, but after the hull of the boat was stable, he stood up straight, hit the flashlight down, and observed the interior of the ship. From my point of view, I could only see that there seemed to be ropes on the inside of the boat, and there were wooden oars next to it, and the rest could not be seen clearly.
You know, where we are now, four or five meters away from the scarlet shuttle, this kid is actually ......
The people who came out of the Yumen Division Torture Hall are inevitably too perverted!
Tang Linlin pulled my sleeve worriedly and said, "He will definitely row by himself." ”
I'm not sure, Jiang Xi is a very strange person, let's say he's bad, he just saved me and Tang Linlin's lives, and it's both good and evil, it's really hard to make a conclusion. Jiang Xi looked around, seemed to have seen enough, inserted the flashlight into his waist, reached out and grabbed the oars and rowed, and the boat landed within two days.
He didn't say anything, but he was obviously motioning for me and Tang Linlin to go up. Now it was Tang Linlin's turn to wonder, muttering in her mouth, her voice was very low, and she didn't know what she was talking about. At this moment, we have no other way back than to move forward. If Tan Jian and Zhou Xuanye's situation is unclear, the only thing Tang Linlin and I can do is to find the general hub of the agency, which may be able to reduce the burden on Zhou Xuanye and the others. Once there is no mechanism in this place, they are under the pursuit of Yumen, I am afraid it will be easier to escape.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh, if it weren't for the damn fox fairy in my body, why would the three of Tan Jian be so embarrassed.
Thinking of the origin of this fox fairy, thinking of the father and son of the Fu family, and thinking of the little ghost who has only one head at this time, hiding in the divine seat, I feel uneasy. I can't guess what Jiang Xi's intentions are, so I can only take one step at a time.
After getting on the boat, he handed me and Tang Linlin the oars and motioned for us to row, while he himself sat half-at the bow of the boat, holding a flashlight and constantly observing the surroundings, looking very vigilant. The three of them did their own duties, rowed their boats, and headed across the water.
The boat was quite smooth in the water, and the water below was no different from ordinary water, and I don't know if what Jiang Xi heard was true. But soon, I knew that his words were not false, because Tang Linlin and I had not rowed much, so I was not very familiar with controlling the oars, Tang Linlin had always belonged to a lively and frizzy personality, so when rowing, the strength was not well controlled, and some water droplets were splashed, and there were just two drops splashed on her wrists.
She screamed and quickly let go, and I looked sideways, only to see that there were two peeling spots on the wrist, as if they had been scalded by boiling water. Jiang Xi turned his head sharply when he heard the voice, and hit the flashlight at Tang Linlin, and the three of us stared at the wrist injury, and couldn't help but be silent for a while.
This water is really corrosive.
Just two drops of water are so powerful, if something goes wrong with the ship and a person falls, wouldn't it be ......
Tang Linlin swallowed her saliva and looked horrified: "What is added to this water surface?" ”
Jiang Xi didn't answer, maybe he didn't know, maybe he was lazy to say, the people in the Yumen seemed to be so virtuous, and they all disdained to take care of us outsiders.
I said, "Let's go ashore quickly, it's too dangerous to float on such water." ”
Of course, the other two didn't make much sense, Tang Linlin and I immediately rowed again, this time Tang Linlin learned a lesson, and rowed better than me. The bright red, blood-stained and brilliant ships, in the dim halo, broke through the darkness and sailed forward.
Jiang Xi turned back and didn't pay any more attention to us, this water area is not too big, and soon, we can vaguely see the shore.
Just about 20 meters away from the shore, I suddenly found that our ship had stopped moving.
Tang Linlin and I were obviously rowing, but the boat seemed to be nailed to the spot.
What's going on?
I chuckled in my heart, knowing that something was wrong.
In fact, this boat was a little strange, I didn't think about it so much before, but now that I know that the water can really corrode living creatures, I have an even more ominous guess in my heart: Could it be that this boat is a bait?
However, this speculation turned out to come true.
The boat came to an abrupt stop for no reason, catching the three of us off guard.
Tang Linlin was sweating profusely: "What's the matter!" Damn it. As she spoke, she looked down at the water, as if to see if our boat had tripped over something. I also looked sideways into the water, and saw that in the light of the flashlight, the water quality was very thorough, and I couldn't see anything famous at all.
Tang Linlin said: "There must be something wrong with the bottom of the boat, but ...... But we can't see the bottom of the boat! ”
Jiang Xi's black hair was braided into a braid by him, and he seemed to feel tricky at this time, so he threw his braid back and said, "Didn't you raise a little ghost, let it come out and go to the bottom of the boat to have a look." ”
"You know all this?" I was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, I have a fox fairy on my body, isn't it also seen by him, raising a little ghost will naturally be contaminated with ghost energy, and it is not strange for him to see it. When even asked Xiao An: "Can you still come out?" ”
The little ghost didn't show up, and his voice was a little weak: "No, I want to sleep." "Of course the ghost doesn't sleep, it must be too weak now.
When Jiang Xi heard this, his expressionless face showed a touch of surprise: "How can the ghost you raise be so weak?" ”
Tang Linlin didn't know about this, and said quite worriedly: "Weak? Could it be that something happened to Xiao An? ”
Xiao An was cut by Zhou Laoer, who had a split personality, of course I didn't tell Tang Linlin about this, so I perfunctorily said, "I don't know what's going on, probably because it ran out and caused some powerful people to get hurt." ”
Jiang Xi said: "Feed it a drop of essence blood." ”
Essence blood?
"How do you feed it? What is the use of feeding sperm blood? ”
Jiang Xi frowned, and said coldly: "I don't even know this, you still raise little ghosts?" Collect ghosts, in exchange for essence and blood, from now on, you can accept ghosts for your own use, and the power will be greater, don't you know? “
Zhou Xuanye didn't mention this to me.
"For my use? Will that cause damage to the ghosts? ”
Jiang Xi seemed to be a little impatient, and said, "It will only make it stronger, and there is no harm." After a pause, he added, "But ghosts can't be born from now on." ”
Tang Linlin immediately said, "It's too cruel." ”
Xiao An also shouted: "You can't do this to me! It seems that he was frightened by Jiang Xi's words.
The male monster Zhou Xuanye didn't tell me about this, thinking that he knew that it was impossible for me to subdue Xiao An in that way, so he didn't tell me.
I immediately rejected Jiang Xi's proposal and said, "Think of a way again." ”
When Xiao An saw that I didn't accept it, he popped out a head and said, "I insist on it, go into the water to see, my brother should protect my brother, you wait." With that, he plunged into the water.
