Chapter 415 [Uninvited Guest] (II)
At lunchtime, Luo Lie told Fu Bo about Wu Jie's joining, and Fu Bo said: "No one knows whether this Purple Mansion Jade Box is so magical, if the Jade Box itself does not have the effect of reviving the dead, I am afraid that too many people will be disappointed." ”
Luo Lie said: "No matter what, you have to try it." ”
Fu Bo nodded, he understood that Luo Lie did not have the desire to possess the Purple Mansion Jade Box, but wanted to save the sparrows through the Purple Mansion Jade Box.
Luo Lie and Wu Jie were ready, the Yupu wharf had been closed three days early, the entire wharf was empty, and the workers all went home to rest. Ye Qinghong finally decided to stay at home and wait for the news of Luo Hunt, if she was at the dock scene, she was worried that her heart would not be able to bear it.
Ye Qinghong found that she became more and more dependent on Luo Lie after marriage, she did not tell Luo Lie about this feeling of gain and loss, and even she quietly went to the hospital alone for examination, she was pregnant again, this little life comforted Ye Qinghong's injured heart, she cherished her and Luo Lie's hard-won love crystallization more and more, and she had to wait until Luo Hunt returned safely to tell him the good news. It's not that she wants to keep it a secret, but at this time, she doesn't want to interfere with Luo Lie's state of mind, if she tells Luo Lie, Luo Lie will only add to her worries, and she will take a greater risk when she goes to risk it with an uneasy state of mind.
Luo Lie and Wu Jie were making preparations before going into the water, and Tiewa, who was in charge of the lookout, came down from the tower, and he noticed that there was a boat about a mile away from the Yupu Wharf, and some of the people on that boat were acting strangely.
After Luo Lie heard this, he climbed to the watchtower, picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance, only to see that there were more than ten people on the ship on the deck doing preparations before going into the water, Luo Lie recognized one of them as Chen Haodong, he immediately understood the purpose of Chen Haodong's trip, for Chen Haodong, this should be his last chance to become the master of the door, if he can take the lead and get the Purple Mansion Jade Box, then he can win at the last moment and take the position of the door master.
Luo Lie returned to the bottom and told Faber what he had seen.
Fu Bo said: "There is a water ghost team among the thieves, this team belongs to the Huangpu rudder, the members of the water ghost team are strictly selected from all over the country, they are outstanding in water, and the top masters can stay in the water for three days and three nights. ”
Luo Lie said: "Is it floating on the water?" ”
Fauber shook his head and said, "They have mastered a unique method of ventilation, and it is said that the maximum time they can stay underwater can reach more than six hours. ”
Wu Jie said: "What's unusual. ”
Fu Bo smiled at Wu Jie and said, "Don't underestimate these six hours, these six hours are enough time for them to hunt for treasures in the water." He said to Luo Lie, "Boy, how long can you stay underwater?"
Luo Lie said: "Six hours should be fine." ”
Fu Bo looked at Wu Jie, he didn't ask Wu Jie, Wu Jie's sentence just now can be seen that he didn't pay attention to the six hours at all. Fu Bo and Wu Jie had not dealt with each other in the past, but with his veteran experience, he knew at a glance that this person had a strange temper and was not easy to get along with.
Fauber said: "Be careful, often the invisible danger is the deadliest. ”
Luo Lie nodded, he moved his limbs, and saw Wu Jie slowly take off his robe, revealing a gray-white shark skin water backing inside, Luo Lie knew at a glance that this water was extraordinary, compared to Wu Jie's water support, his diving suit was dwarfed.
Fu Bo said: "It turns out that Yue Sizheng's fishman armor has fallen into your hands. ”
Wu Jie said indifferently: "The old gentleman can be regarded as well-informed. ”
Although Luo Lie's diving suit is not as exquisite as Wu Jie's craftsmanship, it contains a lot of high-tech, and now it is spring, but the Pujiang water is still very cold, and ordinary people can not last half an hour in this water temperature, and they may have to stay for a long time, so in choosing a wetsuit, it is necessary to consider both waterproof and warm and convenient mobility.
Fu Bo opened the mud seal of the wine jar, poured two bowls of wine, and said: "I wish you a successful start and all the best!"
Luo Lie took a symbolic sip, but Wu Jie drank the bowl of wine cleanly.
Fu Bo made a look, and Tiewa cut off the heads of the two roosters prepared in advance and threw them into the Pujiang River, which was an auspicious attempt to let the resentful spirits retreat.
Wu Jie threw the empty bowl on the open ground on the side, and the empty bowl was shattered, which also means broken peace, and Wu Jie didn't say much after doing this, and jumped into the Pujiang River with his bamboo pole. Luo Lie was not far behind, and jumped into the water with Wu Jie.
Tiewa shouted, "Uncle Luo, catch a water monkey for me to play." ”
Fu Bo glared at this kid, because he was still thinking about playing at this time, and said angrily: "Do you want to catch a water monkey for you as a wife?"
Tiewa smiled: "It's too ugly." ”
Fu Bo said: "Hurry up and get up to me to monitor the movements of those people." Tiewa answered and hurried away.
Wu Jie entered the water quickly, his diving posture was different, his right hand holding the bamboo pole stretched straight forward, the whole person was like a javelin pierced into the water, and he dived deep by the inertia of jumping into the water.
Luo Lie was worried that he was blind, and the role of his ears and nose in the water was not too great, Luo Lie at least wore a homemade transparent hood, Wu Jie's head did not have any protection, and Wu Jie in the water was like a big gray-white fish.
Although Luo Hunt has good water properties, he has always been thrown away by him for a distance, the water in this section of the Pujiang River is relatively turbid, although Luo Hunt is fully prepared, the visibility is still not good, the closer to the bottom of the river, the lower the water temperature, and the lower part of the hidden undercurrent is very fast, if you want to get close to the white bone trench, you also need to dive against the current.
Wu Jie corrected his position in the water and came to Luo Lie's side, keeping a distance of about three meters between him and Luo Lie.
Luo Lie found the place where the iron anchor was found last time, the iron anchor is still there, and the bottom of the water is still the same as in the past, although Wu Jie can't see things, but Luo Lie makes any change in direction, he can always find Luo Lie's location at the first time.
They came to the edge of the white bone trench, Luo Lie pulled out the fishing spear that had been prepared from behind, last time it was in this place that more than a dozen water monkeys suddenly sprang out, although he escaped fast enough, but he was still scratched by the water monkeys, and almost died.
Six blurry figures appeared in front of them, Luo Lie judged from the speed of their swimming that it should not be a water monkey, and when he swam closer, the group of people was fully equipped, and it turned out that Chen Haodong led his men to dive into the water to find the Purple Mansion Jade Box.
This Chen Haodong can be regarded as perseverance in the position of the master of the door, which is in response to the sentence that he will not give up if he can't get to the Yellow River.
However, there was no direct conflict between the two sides, they both knew that each other's purpose was the Purple Mansion Jade Box, and no one had the intention of provoking a dispute before finding the Purple Mansion Jade Box.
The water monkey that Luo Lie was worried about never appeared, a group of people searched in the water, Luo Lie found an old map from the sparrow's safe, the map should be drawn on the Pujiang River, but the map is too long, after the vicissitudes of life, the river has changed, and the real situation now is very different from when the map was drawn. In addition, with the development of the times, the water body of the Pujiang River is turbid, and the reference significance of the map is not great.
The more blurred the vision, the smaller the role that the eyes can play, if you rely too much on the eyes, it will involve most of the energy, after Luo Lie met Wu Jie, Wu Jie taught him to perceive the surrounding environment with his heart, so that his realm has been greatly improved.
Although Chen Haodong's group of people had outstanding water quality, the water temperature near the white bone trench was too low, and it didn't take long for them to start to bear it, and some people had already chosen to float first.
At this moment, from under the white bone trench, six black shadows burst out from the pile of white bones, and they were none other than water monkeys, and they pounced on the people in the water with lightning speed. If they were on land, these people would have the ability to compete with water monkeys, but now that they are fifty meters deep, it is difficult for ordinary people to even do an ordinary move, let alone fight in the water.
Chen Haodong's side is also fully equipped, everyone has a weapon, they hurriedly picked up the fishing gun, but one of them didn't have time to pick up the fishing gun, his feet were grabbed by the water monkey, and he pulled it violently, and the whole person was dragged into the white bone trench, drowning in the white bones, although the companions couldn't see what was happening, but they saw the black blood mist rising like smoke on the pile of white bones, one by one was shocked.
Chen Haodong pulled the trigger, and the fishing gun shot at a water monkey who was rushing straight towards him, the water monkey was flexible in the water, evaded the lightning to the right, dodged the fishing gun, grabbed the arrow, and his body accelerated in the water, like a flash of lightning, he pounced in front of one of them, raised the arrow and slammed it into the man's face.
In the blink of an eye, two people had already died tragically.
A water monkey chose Wu Jie as a target, it dived in the water at a very fast speed, and what was even more terrifying was that it was silent, when Luo Hunt found out the water monkey's intentions, the water monkey was only less than two meters away from Wu Jie.
Luo Lie hurriedly picked up the fishing gun and shot at the water monkey, but another water monkey blocked his vision, and the water monkey grabbed the front end of Luo Lie's fishing gun.
Luo Lie shot at close range, the tip of the arrow penetrated the palm of the water monkey, Luo Lie immediately pulled out the dagger, and quickly cut off the wrist of the water monkey, the left hand of the water monkey was cut off by the dagger, and the blood gushed out, it was so frightened that it covered the broken wrist and fled towards the pile of bones.
Another water monkey was sneaking up on Wu Jie, opening its mouth and preparing to bite Wu Jie's neck, but he didn't expect a slender sword to suddenly appear under Wu Jie's armpit. Facing its face, it pierced its mouth with unmistakable accuracy.
Luo Lie saw that Wu Jie's hand was so efficient, so he was relieved, in fact, Wu Jie's thin and narrow long sword hidden in the bamboo pole was more suitable for underwater combat, and the narrow sword body decided that it would bear very little resistance in the water.
Luo Lie and Wu Ming's hand, the two water monkeys were killed and one was injured, and the two of them were unscathed, on the other hand, Chen Haodong's side had already suffered heavy losses, three people had been killed by the water monkeys in a short period of time, and the other three also hurriedly floated, if it wasn't for Luo Lie and Wu Ming's hands to deter these water monkeys, I'm afraid they would not have been spared.
