Chapter 534: In the River
The next place we're going to is a place called Backwater.
The river there is relatively wide, but it is also shallow.
The river flows downstream, where a gyration is formed.
Therefore, it is called a backwater bay.
Lao Mo and I don't know why we want to go to Backwater Bay.
But Jiang Ye said this, there must be his way.
Lao Mo and I were wary of the black water that was going upstream, and kept sprinkling hundreds of ashes into the water.
These black fish are called "ghost fish" by Jiang Ye.
These fish will become especially excited after eating these hundred gray ashes.
Carrying our small boat, going upstream.
It's not very fast, but it's definitely not slow.
The black water behind him is in hot pursuit.
It's like there is a water troll under the black water, and once it is swallowed up, it is difficult to get out.
The black water is getting closer and closer, and Lao Mo and I are a little anxious.
"Jiang Ye, the black water is getting closer and closer!"
Looking at the black water, which was only a meter or two away from the boat, Lao Mo and I both frowned vigilantly.
Jiang Ye carried the lantern and had a calm face:
"Don't panic, it's almost time to get to Backwater.
Pour all the ashes into the water. ”
Jiang Ye said this, and I didn't hesitate anymore.
He poured half a bag of ash into the river.
The fragrance, as if in an instant, made the whole river become fragrant.
The ghost fish holding our boat is even more like chicken blood at this time.
Constantly wagging his tail.
The ship began to speed forward.
The sound of "whooshing" water on the surface of the water is constantly sounding.
Our speed increased, and we gradually distanced ourselves from the black water behind us.
As we sailed about a hundred meters, we entered the open river.
This is the backwater bay.
"Here we are, here it is.
Tonight, I'm here to make a break with this evil ghost. ”
Jiang Ye spoke loudly.
The ghost fish also carried the boat and entered the center of the backwater bay.
The surrounding white fog is filled, and the view is not very wide.
The ghost fish, on the other hand, began to dive into the river after sending the boat to the center of the backwater bay.
After a while, none of them were left behind, and they were gone.
But the black water behind him, at this time, also entered the backwater bay.
As the black water entered, the white mist that filled the surroundings also seemed to be infected by the black water at this moment.
Everywhere the black water passed, except that the river turned black.
Even the white mist on the surface of the river turned black.
Seeing this, Lao Mo asked again:
"Jiang Ye, what should I do next?"
Jiang Ye didn't answer immediately.
Instead, he walked to the stern with a white lantern in his hand:
"Next, you just need to stand on the boat and wait for the opportunity to move.
In this place, there is an old man's secret hand.
Critical moments can be triggered.
The premise is that this evil spirit must be lured out first, and he must not be guarded. ”
Speaking of which, Jiang Ye has come to the stern.
There are oars in the stern.
Jiang Ye grabbed an oar and slammed it hard.
From the handle of the oar, he pulled out a black iron ruler.
Jiang Ye looked at the black iron ruler in his hand and smiled coldly:
"The old man hasn't used an iron ruler for years, and it's time to loosen his muscles tonight."
After speaking, he clamped it on his arm and wiped the mist on the black iron ruler.
As the water mist dried up, some scales appeared on the black iron ruler.
But more than that, it's some ghost-like patterns.
This should be, some kind of special rune.
Lao Mo and I also nodded again and again.
Here, there is Jiang Ye's secret hand, but I don't know what the means are.
Didn't ask much.
It's preparing.
I held the Lock Ghost Hook in one hand and the Mahogany Sword in the other.
Look at the black water that is about to gush.
Lao Mo held the demon suppression net in both hands, and looked at the black water without blinking.
Jiang Ye stepped on the side of the boat.
Carrying a lantern, shining on the black water.
The other hand, holding a black iron ruler, looked at the infected black water, motionless.
The atmosphere, at this moment was dead silence.
The black water came silently and slowly.
In a few moments, we were wrapped in a small boat.
Even the surface of the river within a radius of several tens of meters was completely infected with black water.
There was a black fog all around.
The surface of the water is also calm, and there are no waves at all.
At first glance, it might even be thought that this is a dead pool.
Silence, deathly silence.
But we all know in our hearts that this is the calm before the storm.
Beneath this calm black water, there is actually an extremely ferocious evil ghost swimming.
Once pulled underwater by him, it will be very dangerous.
The wind seems to have stopped.
There were only the three of us in my ears, the faint sound of "whirring".
The invisible sense of depression made several of us feel heavy in our hearts.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes......
Suddenly, I only heard a "bang".
At the bow of the ship, a sound of water sounded.
A shriveled yellow arm suddenly poked out of the water.
A handful, it was grabbed on the bow of the ship.
The three of us tightened our hearts and looked at the situation.
I saw that the withered yellow arm was slightly bent, and a wet dead man's head emerged from the river.
The other hand was also on the bow of the boat.
He had a thin face, sunken eyes and face.
Black hole-in-the-dark eyes, wet hair, jagged teeth.
"Giggle" at us.
When I saw this, my complexion changed greatly, and I exclaimed;
"It's a water ghost, and it wants to climb into the boat."
"Slaughter it!"
Jiang Ye, who was at the stern of the boat, also hurriedly spoke.
But as he spoke, I raised my peachwood sword and rushed to the bow of the ship.
The water ghost looked at me hideously.
This appearance is obviously not the water ghost I encountered during the day.
It's a little minion.
He was soaked, halfway up the boat, and his lower body was still straining.
I raised my peachwood sword violently, without any mercy to hesitate:
"Evil Barrier!"
As he spoke, a sword had already slashed at the water ghost's head.
The water ghost's "ah" scream was slashed by my sword and turned into bursts of black gas.
But I just killed a water ghost here.
Around our boat, there was a sound of "la-la-la" water.
On both sides of the boat, shriveled and thin human hands suddenly stretched out, grabbing the side of the boat.
Wet human heads emerged from the water one after another.
The yin wind gusted, and the screams of "woo woo" in the mouth continued.
Desperately, I just want to climb on our ship......
