Chapter 2: Accidents

The sudden shout attracted a few helpless glances, but they only stared at the young man, and everyone continued their work.

"It's a stupid boy, I wouldn't have saved him if I had known, and I wouldn't have helped him at all if I wasted water and food. Looking at the young man who fell into decay after screaming, the girl who was holding the old man said disdainfully.

The old man shook his head helplessly. When they met the teenager three days earlier, they found him floating in a semi-conscious state holding a plank. After waking up, the boy refused to say a word, but judging from the situation in the past few days, he must have experienced a terrible change.

"The rules passed down from generation to generation, I can't do it if I can't save myself when I die, so let's talk about it...... Leave it to him. The old man's eyes shimmered, staring at the young man and said thoughtfully.

The girl pursed her lips and snorted softly, but didn't say anything, and turned her head to continue staring at the busy crowd.

In fact, although the boy seemed to be indifferent to everything around him, no matter what he went through, a few days had calmed his mood a lot. When he saw the group of vigorous men in Tsing Yi in front of him raising and falling one by one without hesitation, the young man's hand couldn't help but clench tightly, and his eyes finally couldn't help but move.

On the top of the splint, there were huge eels, all black and black, and the fluorescence that had been seen from the surface of the sea was the arc they emitted. From everyone's usual conversations, the young man knew that the people on the boat were from Nanmingguo, and he didn't know what secret method they used to catch this kind of electric eel that only appeared under the deep sea of hundreds of zhang, and looking at the size of the electric eel, if it was in the water, it would not be discharged, and only those fangs could easily kill people.

Obviously, this group of fisherman-looking guys are not ordinary people, and their outfits are also very different from the fisherman crew that the boy has seen before.

There are hundreds of eels, but at this time these eels seem to have completely lost their vitality, those men in green clothes in pairs, grab the eel's body is directly cut open the belly, cut something from it and throw it into the wooden box on the side, and immediately throw the eel's body back into the sea, but obviously those eels will not survive.

The eels are not small, and although there are many people on board, they are all tired enough. However, this exertion was insignificant in the face of the abundant harvest, because all the men in Tsing Yi were panting and smiling at the same time.

After the fat man named Huang Gui cleaned up the several eels in front of him, he raised his head and smiled at the old man with a sincere smile: "Clan Elder, it seems that there must be at least a thousand, although it is a month late, it is much better than three years ago." ”

"Hmm. The old man nodded his head, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, and said: "Little ones, speed up your hands and feet, if it goes well, you can set off back to the island in two days." ”

"Hey, hey. A man in Tsing Yi smiled innocently, and with a tight grip on the dagger, he rushed to the last pile of eels in the middle of the splint.

"When it comes to Cheng going home, you see how motivated this guy is, I'm afraid I miss his daughter-in-law. ”

As soon as the man in green clothes moved his front feet, Huang Gui, who was partnering with him behind him, suddenly came out with such a sentence, which caused everyone to laugh, and even the girl covered her mouth and chuckled, making the scene of this labor easier.

For fishermen who work at sea, a trip to sea can take as few days, as many as months, or even years. Although the old man does not seem to be an ordinary fisherman, and the purpose of their visit is obviously the electric eel in the depths of this vast sea, the wandering of several months has long made people tired.

In the midst of laughter, everyone was in high spirits, but the slightly fascinated eyes of the old man who had relaxed on the side suddenly opened.

"Be careful. ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, the pile of eels that were motionless in the center of the splint actually scattered with a "whoosh", and everyone had already dodged back at the moment when the old man's exclamation sounded, but after all, someone was still a step slower.

"Ah......h

I saw a black shadow flashing, and immediately a miserable scream sounded, and the man in Tsing Yi, who had taken a step back, raised his head and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and then fell heavily on the splint, and a bloody hole in his chest was shocking. When everyone came back to their senses, they found that the deceased was actually the person who had just been joked about by Huang Gui.

And on the deceased's body, it seemed that a thick black rope was entangled, and the rope was constantly contracting and wriggling.

"It's a blood snake, spread out. Huang Gui said in a deep voice. Looking at his companion who lost his life in an instant, Huang Gui seemed unusually calm, dodged to protect the old man and the girl behind him, and stared at his companion's bloody wound with blazing eyes.

"It's all my fault, I was careless, I didn't even notice it, how could I ...... the young blood snake" The old man's voice was extremely bitter, and he stopped talking. Looking at the deceased, the girl next to her hugged the old man's arm tightly, and there were tears flashing in her eyes with surprise.

"Abominable brute. Huang Gui gritted his teeth and scolded, and the eyes of everyone around him flashed with anger.

"Sizzle...... Sizzle......"

In the brief silence, the palpitating snake roar came from the wound of the deceased, and in the midst of the agitation of blood, a fist-sized pitch-black snake head emerged, and a pair of snake eyes flashed with blood-red fluorescence.

"Slaughter it and avenge Zhao Si. ”

As soon as a man in green clothes saw the bloody snake coming up, he immediately rushed over with a dagger and slashed at the snake's head. It's staggeringly fast.

"Sizzle...... Sizzle......"

Seeing someone rushing towards him, the blood snake spit out the letter, and the red light flashed in the bean-sized snake's eyes, and he dodged the knife with a shrunk head. Then, the body of the snake wrapped around the deceased suddenly contracted, causing the deceased's body to roll to the side.

The man in Tsing Yi was shocked when he missed the blow, but his hand was non-stop, and his backhand was a knife back stabbing away, aiming directly at the black snake body of the blood snake. Between the lightning and flint, the body of the blood snake wrapped around the deceased was released and changed its position, and the man in Tsing Yi was too strong to jump forward, and the tip of the knife actually rubbed the body of the blood snake alive, and when he landed, he was already a foot away from the blood snake.

"What a cunning brute!" Seeing that his companion had lost the opportunity to attack, another middle-aged man on the side had already dodged forward, the dagger in his right hand glowed with cold light, and the knife edge slashed down through his chest, seeing that the blood snake was unavoidable, he was about to fall overhead. But at this moment, the dead man's trousers suddenly moved.

"Watch out for your back. ”

In the flash of light, Huang Gui exclaimed, and in a flash, his figure blocked behind the man in Tsing Yi who was the first to move, and he flipped his palms and pushed forward. With the flickering light, I saw that a pale cyan cyclone the size of a foot between Huang Gui's palms was slowly rotating, and in the center of the cyclone, a strange black line was swaying from side to side.

"Twitter......"

At the same time, the head of the blood snake was cut off with a knife, and after the falling snake head let out a sharp scream, a jet-black snake tail emerged from the deceased's trouser tube.

After killing the blood snake, the middle-aged man turned to look at Huang Gui with a solemn face, and couldn't help but change his face drastically. He exclaimed to the man in Tsing Yi who was the first to do it: "I didn't expect that this young snake would have black blood marrow in its body!" It's really lucky, if it weren't for Huang Gui's sharp eyes, I'm afraid that at this time, I would ...... You're just like Zhao Si......"

When the man in green heard this, his eyes showed a look of horror, and he swallowed his saliva and sat on the splint. However, for his slightly timid behavior, none of the people on the ship said a word of ridicule, but two companions hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

Here, the old man stepped forward slowly, stared at the black line between Huang Gui's palms, and said in a low voice: "You are also holding it up, if the strength of this black blood marrow is even greater, you are afraid that the 'Qingguang Shield' that is not as good as flowing will not be able to stop it." ”

Hearing this, the look of surprise on the face of the man in green clothes became even heavier. Obviously, the seemingly young blood snake just now saw that he couldn't survive, so he shot out black blood marrow from his tail at the last moment, in order to die together.

As he spoke, the cyan cyclone in Huang Gui's hand suddenly increased its rotation speed, and gradually the black line slowly shrank inward, until it finally turned into a small black dot, and when he reached out and grabbed it, Huang Gui held the black dot in his hand. When I opened it, a black ball the size of a soybean lay quietly in the palm of my hand.

It was only at this time that Huang Gui's solemn face could be regarded as relaxed. With a long sigh of relief, Huang Gui handed the little black ball to the old man.

"What you got in exchange for your life, you should keep it for yourself. The old man was finally relieved, shook his head and said.

The sudden change made the atmosphere on the ship suddenly become heavy, and some people had already wrapped the body of the deceased in cloth and carried it to the warehouse, while others continued to do what they should do after carefully examining it.

Sighing, the old man continued to say to Huang Gui: "After you go back, remember to send two high-grade 'electric pills' to Zhao Si's family." ”

Hearing this, Huang Gui was stunned for a moment, and then nodded lightly and said: "It's okay, that kid from the Zhao Si family is also twelve years old this year, and he has already succeeded in Qiyuan the year before last, and the top-grade Lei is surnamed Yuanqi, and he is the best candidate to enter the 'Golden Light Gate'. ”

"Really?" the old man was also stunned, and then said: "Yes, anyway, it will be the celebration of the Golden Light Gate in a while, and we have to rush back before this." ”

"What will Aunt Zhao do in the future?" On the side, the tear-stained girl whispered.

The old man and Huang Gui glanced at each other, their eyes became more and more gloomy, and after Huang Gui joined the ranks of slaughtering electric eels again, the old man touched the girl's head and whispered: "This clan is self-arranged, why do you little doll want to do so much." ”

Slowly, everyone's mood calmed down, and the old man looked up and glanced at the people who were cleaning up the mess, but his eyes unconsciously stopped at the nameless boy on the side.

The old man found that there was a faint hint of horror in the young man's eyes, and it was obvious that he was also frightened by the previous scene. However, under the slightest fright, there was a strange brilliance in his eyes, and the young man at this time was staring at Huang Gui, who was busy before and after, like a person who was dizzy with hunger and suddenly saw food. In this regard, the old man's brow slowly furrowed.
