As soon as Wu Shu's words landed, we saw that the small boat was already close to our mouth, and the corpse dressed as an official actually stretched out his hand to us.

The fan in the corpse's hand shook gently at us, and our boat began to retreat backwards, and at great speed, we were getting farther and farther away from the boat.

At this moment, other pleasure boats on the lake are also surrounding us, and shadows appear behind each boat.

When we saw the shadows, Huang Maoqiang shouted, "It's not good, the corpse worms are infested." ”

Wu Shu immediately got up, waved his hand to Liu Laosi and shouted, "Hurry up and pull back." ”

Huang Mao was furious and scolded: "What kind of mechanism is this, there are so many insects in the water, and there is not even a tomb, this is to let us die here." ”

"Quickly paddle back. I said.

Our oars were extremely fast, but the hull didn't move, but instead moved towards the middle of the boats.

There are more and more corpse insects on the water surface, and the water on the surface of the lake is already covered with fist-sized insects, dense, and the slightest look will make you numb, the pores will shrink, and the goosebumps will not go away at all.

Huang Maoqiang jumped high and stood at the bow of the boat, waving his sword in his hand and making a splash on the water.

With a sword down, the corpses of corpse insects that could not be seen clearly floated on the surface of the water were turned out under the water, and when the sword went down again, more corpse insects turned out.

No matter how Huang Maoqiang used his sword qi, there were more and more corpse insects, until in the end, I don't know how powerful these corpse insects were, holding our big ship high and floating in the air.

No matter how much strength Liu Laosi tried, he couldn't pull us back, and in the end, even the rope we tied was bitten by the corpse insects.

Liu Laosi shouted: "Boss, be careful, the rope is broken, I will swim over to save you." ”

"Don't move, wait for us on the shore, it's not clean in the water. I shouted.

Wu Shu slid his shovel across the water, trying to find a mechanism to stop the corpses.

In the end, no matter how hard we tried, our big boat was held up more than ten meters above the water by these corpses.

At this height, even if it fell to the water, the big ship would have to fall to pieces.

To our shock, the corpses under the ship stopped, and a huge body slowly rose from under them.

"Oh my god, such a big corpse worm, what does this have to eat to grow so big?" Huang Maoqiang exclaimed, and then he swung his sword and slashed away, the big insect didn't feel it, and its body was gradually getting bigger.

When the giant corpse worm became ten times our size, it stirred up a huge wave in the water, and the splash wet our clothes.

We found ourselves covered in a black, viscous liquid that began to harden and turn into the carapace of underwater corpse worms, which rattled and slammed.

"Take off your clothes, or we'll all be corpses. Wu Shu said as he took off his clothes.

I shouted, "We can't take it off, if we take it off, we will become corpse worms, and with this carapace protection, the lake water will no longer hurt us." ”

"Uncle, I'm going to kill him. Huang Mao was in a hurry, and swung his sword to slash out more than a dozen sword qi one after another.

The sword qi sent out brilliant sparks on the corpse insect's carapace, but the big corpse insect did not react at all.

Many of the pleasure boats were also lifted by a large number of corpses, and they floated in the air at the same height as us, but the corpses that had been corrupted or turned into rotten bones rose up one after another, some played flutes, some sang, and even danced on the bow of the boat.

"What the hell is this, is it a hallucination?" Huang Maoqiang questioned.

I used my broken sword to slash at the corpse insect under the ship, whether it was the strength or the feeling of discovering the corpse worm, it was real, I shook my head and said, "It's not an illusion, it's definitely a mechanism, or some kind of more powerful spell." ”

"Sure enough, it's a big tomb, such a biological mechanism can be thought of, I don't believe I can't find their broken point. Wu Shu said.

Liu Laosi on the shore kept shouting to us, he wanted to come to us, but no matter how he shouted, it didn't help us at all.

I simply let go of my fears and irritability, and sat in the boat and pondered.

Actually, I always felt that the tomb down there was a bit weird, and when we came in, we always felt as if it had been deliberately arranged, until now that the corpses are infested, we haven't found the real tomb.

As the boats approached us, the giant corpse worm swung again, stirring up the water and splashing on our bodies, and our clothes changed again, this time becoming harder, causing us to have a hard time moving.

Just as we were at an impasse, another boat appeared across the lake, and someone on board was waving to us.

"Old man?" Huang Maoqiang said.

Wu Shu immediately shouted, "Old man, come and help us, these bugs are crazy." ”

"I told you not to let me come, you didn't listen, I have no choice but to wait for you to collect the body, and I can't do anything else. The old man said.

I shouted, "Is there a way to get these bugs away first, it's disgusting." ”

"No way, you wait for death. The old man said.

I scolded, "Why are you okay, why don't the bugs trouble you?"

"They know me, so they don't bother me, they don't know you, so they want to compete with you, you didn't come with the right intentions, and it's good that I didn't take action to clean you up. The old man's tone changed dramatically.

I was stunned, and Huang Maoqiang also said: "I understand, it turns out that he is the grave keeper here." ”

"Grave keeper, why didn't he say it at first?" asked Wu Shu.

Huang Mao said: "He doesn't know what we do, I think it was after you came out that he caught his attention, so he came over and opened the mechanism." ”

"Yes, the mechanism should be on the other side of the lake, and besides, these corpse insects are not real corpse insects, maybe some kind of special aquatic insects, nothing more than mutated and willing to eat corpses or something. I said.

Wu Shu immediately said: "Yes, just now I felt that the mechanism was not on our side, you see that those corpse insects will not move after forming their current state, just the big one is playing in the water, it is estimated that this is the beauty of the mechanism." ”

"That's easy, aren't we Liu Laosi still on the shore, let's make a plan." "I consulted with the two of them, and Huang Maoqiang wrote a piece of cloth and tied it to his sword, and he threw it to the shore with all his might.

After Liu Laosi saw it, he waved his hand to us and signaled that he understood.

Ah Cai immediately lit a fire on the shore, cooked the steamed buns and other things he brought, and prepared to eat.

A strong fragrance rose on the shore on this side, and the old man in the lake smelled the fragrance and came to the shore, and when he saw Ah Cai and Liu Laosi, he smiled and said, "You are still smart, just don't go in with them." ”

Ah Cai and Liu Laosi didn't speak, they each ate the steamed buns in their hands, and after a while, Ah Cai said: "Do you say that the little brother is evil, there is obviously nothing in the lake, and he is still screaming everywhere there." ”

"Yes, I didn't see anything on the water, didn't they just say the old man was here? There is not even a ghost on the surface of the lake, they are definitely evil. Liu Laosi said.

Ah Cai's face became very anxious and said: "Then what do you say, you can't let them fall into evil like this, you have to think of a way to drag them back." ”

"The rope is broken, and he drags a fart, but I just said that the old man is really not a thing, and when he came out, he said that he wouldn't help us, so I didn't believe it, and he wouldn't work if he gave him gold?"

Ah Cai said: "That is, when you give him gold, you look at him like that, as if you have seen your own father, you have never seen such a person who loves money." ”

The old man was uncomfortable listening to the boat, his face turned blue, and he couldn't listen to it anymore, so he hurriedly rowed over and said to Ah Cai, "Have you said enough?"

Ah Cai and Liu Laosi still pretended not to listen, each talking about their own things, this time their words were even more ugly, so that the old man trembled with anger, and began to grab Liu Laosi's shoulders and keep shaking.

Liu Laosi patted his hand and said, "It's strange, what caught me?"

"Hey, don't you also fall into evil, if you meet a female ghost, you will be lucky. Acai said.

But at this moment, Liu Laosi's eyes were slightly lowered, and he waved his hand to knock the old man unconscious, rummaging over him, but he didn't find anything useful, and then he got on the old man's boat and left Ah Cai on the shore.

Liu Laosi rowed the boat to the back of the lake very easily, and he saw two fist-sized holes, the lake water was flowing out of the hole, and hanging this hemp rope above the hole, it seemed that it should be the ropeway for the old man to enter the cave.

Behind the hole, there is something that looks like a rockery, and there are many yellow-green stone eggs on it.

Liu Laosi pressed down hard, and he only felt that the two water outlets in front of him slowly closed, and the lake water returned to its original calm.

On our side, the corpses under the big boat gradually receded, and we floated on the water again, and the pleasure boats dispersed.

Wu Shu rowed a boat, brought us to Liu Laosi's side and said: "Looking for a mechanism here, I suspect that the tomb is underwater, and the water here should be a circulating water, and if you go down from here, you will come back from above." ”

Liu Laosi nodded and said, "I saw two water outlets just now, and the water is going down. ”

"That's right, let's destroy this mechanism again, and we'll go down and see if there's a tomb later. Wu Shu said, took out a set of bamboo slips from his arms, and looked at it with a full confidence on his face.

He then uprooted the mechanism with a small shovel, severing the connection in the middle.

In the blink of an eye, there were huge waves under the lake, and the waves rolled, and a huge pleasure boat slowly rose from the water, the hull was covered with green moss, and there were many fish and crabs, jumping into the water from the deck.
