Chapter 66: Manta Ray

Imagine that if you are bitten by it underwater, as you struggle your movements will become slower and slower, your limbs will become weaker and weaker, and the smell of blood will disperse, which will attract more tropical fish, and then you will be bitten, and your limbs will be weaker, and then scatter, and more tropical fish will be attracted again, if you are not discovered in time, there will only be two ends, one is drowned in the awake state, and the other is slowly bitten to death in the awake state......

And while they were discussing.

Next door, the proprietress closed the door of the roof on the third floor, called the boss into the house, and the two of them sneaked into the warehouse, took out all the money they collected today, and threw it on the square table where they usually kept accounts.

"I'm ninety-six, what about you?" The proprietress looked up after nodding, with a happy face.

"I'm thirty-eight." The boss excitedly reported the number.

"140,000 in one day." The proprietress couldn't even reach out to cover her smiling teeth.

The proprietress and the boss are not locals, they did a lot of immoral things when they were young, and they couldn't get along in their hometown, so the two of them took the money they usually saved secretly and ran here to open a small supermarket.

Usually sell things a little more expensive than others, but because of the good location of this place, business has been good, small supermarket into a two-story department store, before the water, the proprietress is planning to change the second floor into three floors, continue to make a fortune, the result of the goods are good, the water is coming.

At first, she thought she was going to lose a sum of money, but slowly she found that this "business" was better than usual, from doubling at the beginning, to five, ten, and twenty times, and the proprietress was counting money every night.

It's not that she didn't hear the people around her scolding her for being black-hearted and rotten, but money, money, the moral bottom line is not very high, plus this is the same speed as taking a broom to sweep the money, what is wrong, good and evil are all thrown to the back of the mind, who can't get along with anyone and can't get along with money, what's wrong with a few words of scolding? Can you have real money in your hands? And she doesn't think that the people who scolded her are really good people, they must all be jealous that she has a good business, she doesn't believe that the money is thrown on her feet, and there are still people who are willing not to bend down to pick it up, which means that she can't touch it, she can only enjoy it.

Put the money away, the proprietress was motivated by the money, and she was very dedicated to holding the account book and counting the inventory.

Then I found that there was not much peanut oil left, and I ticked the back of the ledger.

After everything is sorted out, throw the ledger to the boss and ask him to restock.

There was money to be made, and the boss didn't have a word, so he hurriedly ran to move things and tidy up the shelves, but there were everything else upstairs, only peanut oil was gone.

There was still downstairs, and the proprietress flipped through the ledger and said that there were still a hundred barrels in the small warehouse on the first floor.

The boss looked at the dark water under his feet, hesitated, and then took the flashlight and went down.

The boss's hometown is south, there are many rivers and rivers, when he was young, he liked to carry the battery everywhere with people to electric fish, he didn't eat it, sold it to the market, he could have swimmed, he walked by the river for a few years, the water was better, and he could hold his breath for three minutes.

Turning to the first floor, as soon as he touched the warehouse, he felt something swim over his legs, in summer, the weather was hot, he was afraid of snakes, so he carefully turned on the flashlight and shone it. I found a tropical fish with dead skin in the nearby hot spring clubhouse.

scolded in my heart for the cheap bones, and I like to put it on people's feet when I run out.

Carrying four barrels of ten catties of peanut oil and going upstairs, because the oil is clearer than water, the peanut oil is floating in the water, and it is not difficult to carry four barrels.

But halfway through, the boss felt that his leg hurt, and shook it with a flashlight, and found that the dead tropical fish was still sticking to his leg and had bitten the skin.

Reach out and pat. He continued to walk up, but his steps became heavier and heavier, and there were more and more fish around him, not only around his legs and feet, but also on his arms and hands.

It hurts.

But he couldn't raise his hand to pat it, the peanut oil in his hand floated to the top of his head, and his hands and feet were so stiff, stained with yellow-gray tropical fish.

His eyes widened, and he slowly fell down the stairs, his flashlight streaking across the water in a narrow pillar of light, illuminating the schools of fish that were swarming in the distance.

As soon as Liu Ying lay down, she heard a woman's terrible scream from next door, she turned over and got up from the bed in fright, and then heard the whining cry from far and near, and then there was the sound of banging on the door, and the crying female voice shouted the names of Liu's mother and Liu's father.

Father Liu got up and opened the door with his clothes on, and by the dim moonlight outside the door, Liu Ying saw that it was Aunt Li who opened a supermarket next door standing outside.

The usually shrewd and calculating woman has softened her feet at this time, and she hugged Liu's father's arm vigorously and asked him to save their Lao Li.

The surrounding people gradually turned on the lights, and Aunt Li's howls became louder and louder, and she was pulled by Aunt Li, and Liu's mother and Liu's father followed several adults around to the supermarket next door.

Then after a while, several women who followed up ran out in a hurry, Liu Ying opened the door, and saw that under the light, Liu's mother's face was pale.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ying asked.

"What's wrong? Hurry to sleep, close the door, and stay away from the water. Liu's mother drove Liu Ying back to the house and sat down on the sofa on the small balcony by herself.

Mother Liu, when they went, Boss Li had already floated up, and his body seemed to be "draped" with a layer of yellow-gray fish skin, and there was no good skin on his body, but he was still alive and his eyes were still turning.

The men were frightened, the women ran away directly, and only Aunt Li was still shouting for help, save Lao Li.

At this time, no one dared to go into the water, so they found a rope and dragged Boss Li up.

It seemed that a blood gourd had been dragged up, and coupled with the dense tropical fish writhing between the flesh and blood, several men couldn't help but vomit.

It was still Dad Liu who beckoned people to use the dragboard to shoot down the fish on the person.

But in the end, the man still didn't live.

Not drowned, but bleeding.

Everyone found that after being bitten, in addition to the body will be slowly paralyzed, the wound will not dissolve blood. The effect is similar to the saliva injected into the human body before the mosquito sucks blood, the main purpose is to make the platelets of the wound can not coagulate the blood scab, even if it is bandaged, the wound will continue to slowly ooze blood, the injured area is small and not obvious, the injured area is large, and the problem becomes very serious.

At this time, there is a shortage of medical treatment, the road is impassable, and the boss next door stayed up all night, and it was gone before dawn the next morning.

As soon as a person dies, the news about this "manta ray" is known to everyone without going out of their way, and when adults hear the news, in addition to pulling their ears and telling their children to stay away from the water, they are lamenting the impermanence of the world.

Some women also sympathized with the widowed proprietress at a young age in their hearts.

Of course, this other woman does not include Liu's mother, as a close neighbor, Liu's mother went to see it, sent some money, and what should she do when she comes back.

I wasn't worried at all.

Haven't you heard of it, good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years,

The one next door is 100% a scourge.
