Mai Lao looked at everyone and said, "This way, I'll go down and test the depth of the water, if the water is very shallow, I will move the stones, I took a look, there are a lot of big stones around here, we can fill in a road out." ”

"What if the water is deep?" Jiao Ba asked with a cold face.

"Then if you think of another way, you can only gamble for now." After Mai Lao's words, he went to the neighborhood to find a relatively long branch, but he couldn't try it on it, so he had to go down to the river.

I also found a branch and waved at Mai Lao and said, "I'll go down with you to have a look." ”

The two of us walked slowly down the slope, and when we reached the edge of the ditch, I saw that the calm water seemed to change a little, there were very slight waves, but in an instant it calmed down again.

"Mai Lao, there is movement in the river." I stopped, not daring to step forward any further.

"Well, I saw it too, be careful." He moved slowly towards the river, and I had to follow him little by little.

When the two of us walked to the river, nothing unusual happened, Mai Lao used a long branch to test the depth of the river, but the result surprised the two of us, the river was bottomless, but much deeper than I thought.

The branch in Mai Lao's hand was very long, nearly ten meters long, but after entering the river, he couldn't reach the bottom at all, and it was the same on my side, and the branch quickly turned black again, so I quickly threw the branch into the river.

"The water is so deep that you can't even touch it." It's a bad thing, it's hard to cross the river, I always feel that there's something strange in the water, and when the branches are put in the water, it feels sticky, a bit like a swamp.

"What can I do?" Mai Lao touched his forehead, stood by the river and looked at the river in a daze, all plans have been disrupted, and we have no way out now.

I looked down at the black river in front of me, how uncomfortable I looked, it stands to reason that the river should reflect my reflection, but the reflection is not very similar to me, blurry and unclear, only a black image.

Just as I was staring intently at the surface of the river, all of a sudden, the river began to fluctuate again, and this time the fluctuations were faster and more violent than the ones that had just come.

The calm river surface was undulating, like ripples, layer after layer, "Mai Lao, what's the matter?" I stared at the river and asked Mai Lao.

"There's a change, let's go back quickly."

Just as Mai Lao finished speaking, suddenly, a black and dry hand stretched out from the river, and the position where this hand stretched out was not far from my feet, and he came directly to my calf.

Because the distance was too close, before I could react, the black hand was about to grab my calf, at this moment, I actually forgot to dodge, and my whole body was like an electric shock, and my hair almost stood on end.

At this critical moment, there was a force in my back that directly pulled me back, "Be careful." Mai Laoyi pulled me to the side, and the two of us turned around and hurriedly climbed up a few steps, and my actions were so embarrassing that I was like a dog going up a tree, and I was thrown home.

When I climbed to the middle end, I stopped and gasped for air, cold sweat began to flow down my forehead, and the tingling sensation in my temples returned, as if the green tendons were jumping and jumping.

I haven't recovered from the fear I had just had, how could a black hand suddenly appear in this river, what kind of ditch this is, I can't imagine it.

It's thanks to having Mai Lao by my side, and if he hadn't been fast enough, I'd have been caught by that hand in the river, and by then, even if I didn't want to die, I wouldn't have been able to do it.

At this moment, suddenly there were some very strange voices in my ears, it was that desolate wail, yes, it was the very painful wail, the cries of human beings who were about to die after being tortured.

The sound probably came from the river, I turned my head to look at the river again, when I saw the scene on the river, my brain was even blank, the scene in front of me, I will never forget it, that creepy scene, no one can stand it.

There were countless faces on the surface of the river, all of them black, exactly the same color as the river, they had no eyes, no noses, only a mouth that was making an unacceptable wail, the pain of that wail, as if they were in the legendary eighteen layers of hell.

Countless pairs of black palms stretched out of the river, trying to grasp the surrounding things, and I finally knew why there was no grass growing on the riverside, it was because of these black hands, they were groping back and forth by the river, no, as if they were going to climb up, as if they wanted to escape.

They struggled in the river in pain, but no matter how they struggled, they still sank in the black water, and this mournful howl was earth-shattering, and the whole jungle reverberated with this mournful cry, which instantly resounded in the sky.

I covered my ears tightly with my hands, but the sound seemed to have a magical power, penetrating my palms and reaching my eardrums, which didn't work at all, and I had a big mouth, as if I could feel the pain.

Old Mai's face also showed some uncomfortable expressions, but this old guy seemed to be stronger than me, he just frowned, and his body looked a little stiff.

This scene lasted for about a few minutes, and the black faces and hands slowly sank to the bottom of the river, and the surface of the river gradually regained its calm, and finally became like a mirror, without a trace of waves, as if nothing had happened, quiet as death.

I've been staring at the river, and I'm still thinking about the scene just now, what the hell is going on, why are those faces and hands on the river, it's all so terrifying, my scalp is tingling when I think about it, and I'm still terrified.

Mai Lao looked at me and said, "Frightened, aren't you?" ”

I nodded stupidly, I didn't say a word, I'm not scared now, I'm scared stupid, this mysterious desert island, what terrible things haven't appeared.

I didn't even dare to imagine it, because I couldn't even imagine it, it was all beyond my brain's thinking.

Mai Lao patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't hang it, let's go, go up." ”

I nodded stupidly, and the two of us climbed back down the slope, and when I went up, when I saw the expression of the big guy again, I almost didn't laugh out loud, except for Jiao Ba and Chang Shan, everyone was so frightened that their faces turned blue, and they sat under the tree as if they had lost their souls.

Especially the big man, he sat under the tree and sweated with his head, his eyes were slanted and scary, obviously he was not lightly frightened, more serious than Jenny and Li Xin, this big man looks very strong, in fact, the courage is the smallest one.

Although Jiao Ba and Chang Shan are not so serious, they are not much better, both of them have grim expressions, and they can't see any emotional changes on their faces, as if they are lifeless shells.

I suddenly found a problem, Chang Shan's personality is sometimes very similar to Jiao Ba, very similar, although Jiao Ba is sometimes lustful and poor, but when he calms down, it is like two people, and no one can understand what he is thinking.

Chang Shan is the same, calm and terrible, he has also shown a lot of unexpected thinking and insight recently, which really makes me think a lot of high regard for him, this man, either a friend or an enemy, you can't have both.

"The big guy is all right, right?" Mai Lao looked at everyone, his face changed very badly, no one expected that the sudden incident just now would bring such serious consequences to everyone.

Mantou looked up at him and said very stiffly, "It's okay for the time being, I don't know for a while, I think we're going to die here." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not to that extent, cheer up, we haven't seen any strong wind and Lang, this little thing is nothing." I stubbornly said to everyone, although I am also afraid, but I can't mess up, if I mess up, at least half of the people will have to follow the chaos.

"It's still small, isn't it? Don't you understand loyalty? The people in the river are probably drowned when they cross the river, maybe it's a water ghost, we are going to cross the river, we have to be arrested by them as a stand-in. "The big man is good, and he directly pushed this thing on the water ghost.

"Don't talk nonsense there, how can there be so many water ghosts, don't scare yourself? I panicked when I said that. Li Xin stood up suddenly, walking back and forth, obviously a little scared, she has always been very calm, but the previous scene would be difficult for anyone to accept.

Jenny tugged at her clothes and said, "Li Xin, don't go, my head is confused." ”

Li Xin sat down and said, "Mai Lao, do you know what's going on?" It's weird why there are so many faces in the river. Li Xin spoke in a slow tone, which was to relieve her nervousness.

"I don't know, I really don't know, in fact, I'm just like you, my head is blank right now, and I can't explain what just happened." Mai Lao rubbed his eyes a little tiredly, let alone him, no one must be able to explain why.

"It's a curse, those people are cursed, they are trapped underwater, they can never get out, they struggle painfully, they just want to break free from this curse, but unfortunately it will never be, they have long lost their souls." Chang Shan suddenly said in a low voice.

It's this damn curse again, "Brother Changshan, what do you mean by that?" Last time, you said that the red monster insect was brought by a curse, and this time you said that the souls of the people in the ditch were cursed, and I was a little confused by you, is this curse true or false? "I really don't understand how he got this information, but it certainly won't be nonsense.
