Chapter 38: Deep Water
"Gollum!"
The water is constantly bubbling, floating on the surface, bursting invisibly.
My wrist hurts, and I am tightly held by Xu Fulong, even if I have been proficient in water since I was a child, there is no use at this moment, unless I get out of Xu Fulong's control first.
After I swallowed two mouthfuls of cold lake water, my brain was dizzy from the shock, but at this time, the benefits of being proficient in water were revealed, and I subconsciously closed my mouth and stopped shouting and calling for help, because that did not have the slightest effect except to let the lake water continue to pour into my mouth.
Keep your mouth shut, hold your breath, and try to keep your eyes open.
God forbid, fortunately with night vision, otherwise, if you are pulled into such a deep and terrifying lake in the middle of the night, you will not be able to see anything.
Xu Fulong, who was so frightened at such a moment, was because although he tried hard to open his eyes, he couldn't see through the lake at all, and even he couldn't see clearly when I was close at hand.
Who is in such a situation and can not panic?
But seeing that Xu Fulong also closed his mouth and held his breath, I knew that he was also good at swimming, but he was being pulled to the bottom of the lake at the moment, so his swimming skills could not be played.
I can see clearly, Xu Fulong's other hand is parting the lake and grabbing at my body, if he is detained, it will be more than lucky, just wait for a sinking bottom.
At this moment, I don't have time to watch what is going on below, I have to get rid of Xu Fulong's control first, and only by freeing my hands and feet can I save myself and save people.
My other hand immediately swung out, breaking through the resistance of the lake, and the last hit hit Xu Fulong's forearm, which was where the human body's numb tendons were located, and I saw Xu Fulong's arm tremble involuntarily, and the action of grabbing me was interrupted.
"Open!"
I shouted in my heart, and one foot was raised suddenly, although the speed buffered by the current slowed down, it still kicked Xu Fulong's hand that was clasping my wrist.
Five of his fingers were kicked off, and I scrambled backwards, and in an instant I was out of his grasp.
Xu Fulong's eyes were wide open, and he was full of fear, and he subconsciously opened his mouth.
I know he can't see clearly, it's a call for help, the problem is, he's already messed up, and the water is pouring into it.
Sure enough, I saw Xu Fulong choked violently and struggled desperately in the water.
He swung his arms and legs wildly, but unfortunately, there was always an irresistible force pulling Xu Fulong down below.
I finally broke free from his confinement, and only then did I look down.
Just the moment I saw what was below, my blood flow rate became several times faster, my eyes were red, my blood pressure soared, and I was scared to faint.
What is below, Xu Fulong can't see clearly, but I'm different, the distance is only three or four meters away, so I can naturally see clearly.
What kind of face is that?
Looking at it coldly, the first impression was that its face was more than three times larger than a normal person's face, and it was covered with wounds, rolled up, and soaked in water.
The eyes without pupils were pitch black and bottomless, and my scalp exploded in my eyes.
Just looking at this terrifying face, it is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman.
Its long black hair snaked through the water like a sea serpent, and a large part of the body of water was covered with the long hair of this thing, and its body was wrapped in a watery robe, which was grayish-white, and it was conspicuous in the water.
The two skinny ghost claws, the nails on which were long and curved, like sharp knives, were clasped to Xu Fulong's ankles, towards the bottom of the water.
And Xu Fulong's ankle was constantly bleeding, obviously injured.
The whole body of the dead thing was covered by a big gray robe, and when I looked at it, it seemed that its volume was much larger than that of a normal person, and it felt that the body and face of the dead thing had been blistered several times larger, just to say that this image was a terrible mess!
"Drowned!"
Such a term appeared in his heart like lightning, and he secretly shouted: "It's miserable." ”
Folklore has it that drowned ghosts can't be detached, and they need to find a substitute ghost before they can go to the underworld to be reincarnated, so drowned ghosts are the most terrifying kind of yin spirits, and once they are caught, it is the rhythm of death.
Only by killing others can they escape the fate of being drowning ghosts forever.
And Xu Fulong is the best prey for the dead ghost, no wonder this dead thing will not let go when he holds him.
At this moment, I have two choices, one is to ignore Xu Fulong, with his super diving ability, he will soon be able to rush to the surface of the lake, and be picked up by the big tiger and escape ashore, which is a choice to protect himself, and it can be regarded as a wiser choice.
Another option is to dive down, save Xu Fulong, and take him to the surface with him.
This is a reckless choice, and it is also a choice to take a big risk, the drowning ghost finally caught a substitute ghost, how can he let it go easily?
I went to save Xu Fulong, if I didn't get it right, I would be burned, and I might not be able to save Xu Fulong but I hitched on myself.
The Drowning Ghost isn't playing a game with us, and if I take the food, will it give up?
It's still the home of people, and even if I'm good at water, in the lake, being chased by an angry drowned ghost, I can't necessarily escape.
This choice is too unwise, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not sit down, countless years ago, the ancestors warned the younger generations to stay away from danger and protect themselves, this is experience.
There were two thoughts in my head like lightning, but in fact, it didn't take a tenth of a second.
I suddenly moved, and became head-to-foot, swimming rapidly downward, as nimble as a fish.
This is thanks to my birthplace, the small county town that does not flow into the flow of green mountains and green waters, there are many lakes, I have been fishing and catching shrimp with my neighbors since I was a child, and I have practiced a good water nature, so I can have this ability at this moment, otherwise, wouldn't I be buried in the big lake?
Sensibility prevailed over reason, and I knew that my choice was unwise and out of stock.
But I know that I can't abandon my teammates and escape by myself, even if I can get out alive, but in the future, will I be able to sleep peacefully?
As long as you think of this scene, I'm afraid it's not guilty? I don't want to live in remorse.
At this moment, I can only follow my heart, but I hope that fate will open my eyes and let my efforts not be in vain.
While swimming, he reached into his arms and smoothly took out the patrol token.
The black sword is hidden inside the sword case, and it takes less time to remove the token.
I walked around behind Xu Fulong to avoid being caught by him again, and while swimming down, I held the token in my right hand and pressed it towards the ghost claw that held Xu Fulong's ankle!
The action has slowed down a lot due to the influence of the water flow, but after all, the distance is close enough, so after the token breaks through the water flow obstruction, it is pressed on one of the opponent's ghost claws!
"Whoa, Gollum!"
Black smoke poured up with water bubbles.
I could see clearly that the drowning ghost opened its mouth sharply and roared lowly, which was painful, but fortunately the current of water relieved the ghost's scream, otherwise, I was afraid that I would faint from the howl.
The smoking ghost paw let go of Xu Fulong's left ankle.
There was another one, I didn't dare to stop at all, and with a movement of my hand, the patrol token pressed against the other paw.
Another puff of black smoke rose up, and the drowning ghost could no longer grasp its prey, and all the claws burned by the token were released.
But I was surprised to find one thing, after the drowning ghost's claws were corroded by a small half, the black smoke stopped, which means that the damage to it from the Ranger Token stopped?
"How so?"
I was shocked, you know, not long ago, when I faced the family of the Blood Umbrella Female Ghost, the part of the ghost body that the token had touched had to be dug up and discarded in order to save the remaining body.
The blood umbrella female ghost is so powerful, she has to follow this rule, and pick out the part that can't be left and throw it away, so that she can save her legs and feet.
But why, is the Drowning Ghost able to abort the token's damage?
With a roll of my eyes, I felt my surroundings and understood something.
Water reduces the damage of the Patrol Token to evil creatures!
As soon as I thought of this, my soul was in danger.
The token was only slightly injured by the drowned ghost, which is not good news.
I don't have time to think about anything else, according to the way of saving people in the water, I controlled the free-falling Xu Fulong behind my back, moved my legs and feet hard, and rushed up with Xu Fulong!
