Chapter 40, Shadow of the Deep (2)
I didn't have time to think in a daze, let's run with my tail clamped first, I took the light in one hand, and the speargun in the other hand quickly returned, just when I felt like I was about to rush out of this dark area, just in front of my light, suddenly, a large black shadow swam by in an instant, I hurriedly moved the light, but my speed couldn't catch up with it at all, I still couldn't see what it was, leaving only the fluctuations of the sea, proving everything that had just happened.
All I know is that this is a very dangerous creature, what it is, I don't want to know anything about it now, I just want to get out of here immediately, under the deep sea, through the wetsuit, I can feel my own cold sweat, this is a kind of fear from the heart, I am like a lamb that recognizes people to slaughter, I am in the light, and the unknown monster is in the dark, this is a big joke of God.
At this moment, I stayed under the water and did not move, I didn't dare to be careless, and I didn't dare to rush forward blindly, I said to myself, calm down, you must calm down, nervousness and fear will make people make a lot of wrong choices, in this case, once careless, I will die here.
My brain was spinning, I had to find a way to get out of here, I didn't know when that thing would suddenly come at me, the lights were still around in all directions, even the top of my head and the soles of my feet, I suddenly realized a question, could it be the lighting, that attracted that thing?
Although I am not sure, but according to the current situation, I can only give it a go, I immediately turned off the light, as soon as the light was turned off, I immediately fell into the infinite darkness world, after waiting for a few seconds, I got used to it a little, so that I could barely see the situation around me, the water was still black, I could not see the presence of other fish.
I tentatively swam forward, just moved a little, I felt behind me, there was a fluctuation of the sea, I immediately stopped, the fluctuation behind it also disappeared, the sea here is too calm, like a mirror, there is no wave at all, where is still the vast sea, it is simply a dead and silent swamp.
I kept my breath to a minimum, or even breathed as little as possible, I was afraid that the bubbles of my breath would attract the monster to me, and I had to think of a complete solution, the oxygen was running out, and if I didn't die at the hands of that thing, I would have to die from lack of oxygen.
I wanted to find the oxygen cylinder of the grandson of the mine, I slowly turned around, only to find that I had already swam far away, I didn't know where the oxygen cylinder was, no way, let it out, I took a deep breath, and immediately unloaded my oxygen cylinder, and then I opened the oxygen valve, and the oxygen cylinder was bubbling out.
I threw away the oxygen cylinder, quietly withdrew, about a few meters away from the oxygen cylinder, I stopped, staring at the oxygen cylinder intently, victory or defeat was all at this moment, I picked up the speargun, aimed at the oxygen cylinder is a shot, the speargun 'boom' sounded out, directly tied to the oxygen cylinder, the oxygen cylinder was pushed by the strong force, and the bubbles were bubbling out.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow instantly rushed over like the direction of the oxygen cylinder, and the calm sea water was drawn out a large wave, it was this time, I turned my head and swam forward quickly, I knew very well in my heart that the oxygen cylinder would not last long, and the monster would soon find out, sure enough, before I marched for more than ten seconds, I felt that something was chasing me behind.
I went crazy, and in the near death situation, I almost used the potential of my human body to the limit, I could even feel the blood in my body almost expanding, and at the moment of life and death, I finally rushed out of this dark area, and when I rushed out, the thing that was chasing me behind me disappeared with me.
The surrounding water was blue, the temperature had risen, and some fish were swimming slowly, and the scene was beautiful, as if what had just happened was just an illusion, and it didn't exist at all.
I didn't have time to think about it, and then I rushed to the surface of the sea, this breath was too long, I felt that my lungs were about to explode, if I stayed any longer, I had to die, when I rushed out of the sea, I gasped for air, this is not only the exhaustion of the body, but also the fear in my heart, I once again escaped by chance, after several consecutive escapes from death, I almost felt that I was God.
I lay flat on the sea and rested, the afternoon sun was very abundant and warm, I dared to think back to everything that had just happened, if there was no mine that grandson, I was sure that I would have died when I went in, I silently thanked him in my heart, and his death was more valuable.
What is hidden in that dark area? And what is that huge black shadow? There were more and more questions, and I was a little confused, and after thinking about it for a while, I couldn't think of a result.
But I know one thing, if the shipwreck of the Qing Dynasty was shrouded in darkness by the yin qi of the coffin female corpse, then this dark sea area should also be shrouded by some kind of energy, what does this mean? Is there a lot of people who die? Or is it shrouded in some unknown creature? I really can't figure this out.
If there is really a Ming Dynasty shipwreck in this dark sea, will it be able to unravel the life story of the coffin female corpse? If her life experience is revealed, then the secret of this jade pendant will naturally be solved, and the man in black should be exposed.
According to Mai Lao's analysis, the shipwreck of the Qing Dynasty also came to salvage the shipwreck of the Ming Dynasty, which I am convinced of now, and Jiao Ba also said that the female corpse in the coffin must be from the Ming Dynasty, but what is the connection between this? I can't figure it out, it seems that the secret hidden in this nautical chart, it is really not small, I rested for about twenty minutes, ready to swim in the direction of the fishing boat, without any instruments, want to distinguish the direction on the sea, the only way is to look at the sun and the stars, I went all the way at a constant speed, I didn't dare to consume too much physical strength, but I was worried about Shunzi in my heart, and I don't know what happened to him? If he's in some trouble, that's bad.
I marched for about half an hour, but I still didn't see any sign of the fishing boats, the vast sea, a blue, except for the occasional flying seabirds, I couldn't see anything, I don't worry about anything else, I'm afraid of encountering any sharks or something, then I'll be completely explained, I looked at the direction carefully, there is no mistake, just go all the way.
More than half an hour passed, and I finally saw three boats floating on the sea, one was our fishing boat, the other two were bearded boats, and the other was the Qing Dynasty shipwreck that we salvaged.
I climbed up the lifeladder with great difficulty, and the march lasted nearly two hours, and I was almost exhausted, and when I got back to the ship, I was lying on the deck, panting with my eyes closed, tired, so fucking tired, much more tired than I was as a sailor.
