Chapter 8 The fifth uncle dives to retrieve the corpse
The two of them looked at me, and then told me again to hold the things in my hand, especially the fifth uncle, and he said that if something happens to the two of us after we go down, only I can save their lives, so I can't be careless.
My face became serious, my heart beat a little faster, and somehow, from this moment I felt as if I was on a mysterious path that would slowly confirm my suspicions.
Soon the two of them found a boat, which was dilapidated but not leaky, and when they got on board, they let me stay on shore.
I held my breath as the two of them walked into the water little by little, and the voices of the two of them were not deliberately lowered, so I could hear some.
"Second brother, you can give me a look, this time it's about the lives of both of us, if it's not good, then we'll both finish playing."
"Don't worry, aren't you at ease when I do things?"
After Chang Xiao finished speaking, he took out some things from his package and put them on the bow of the boat, including yellow paper, copper coins, red threads, and even cinnabar.
I was puzzled, thinking to myself why Chang Xiao brought cinnabar, this is on the water, even if there is cinnabar, it doesn't seem to matter, right?
Just when I was curious, Chang Xiao kept muttering something in his mouth, only to see that he threaded the copper coin in his hand and the red thread together, and threw it directly into the water after being stained with cinnabar.
Surprisingly, the cinnabar did not melt when it fell into the water, but stuck tightly to the copper coin.
Finally, I saw what Chang Xiao was writing on the yellow paper, and after finishing it, Chang Xiao threw the yellow paper into the water.
At that moment, I suddenly felt as if the wind around me was much colder.
I pulled up my collar and didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing the two of them.
At the same time, strange things happened, and I saw that the moment the yellow paper fell into the water, it didn't spontaneously combust.
And the fire that was burning turned green, and I spat fiercely, and my legs and stomach kept shaking.
"Damn, this bitch doesn't want to come up!"
Suddenly, the voice of the fifth uncle sounded in my ears, and I looked at the two people in the distance in surprise.
I...... How did I suddenly hear so clearly?
I wasn't surprised to hear them talking, after all, we weren't very far away, as long as the two of them didn't deliberately lower their voices.
But what just happened?
The fifth uncle's voice just now seemed to be whispering in my ear!
I was so frightened that I jerked out the black dagger in my hand.
The moment the dagger appeared, my ears were finally cleared.
Call!
I let out a long breath and stared at the boat in the water.
It seems that I will not be able to understand what is going on until the two of them are ashore.
"No matter what, it's all down, can you still let her run? Besides, my family has given me a lot of silver, so I can't go back like this.
What haven't I ever seen before? It's just a sinking son, and he can't hold Lao Tzu! ”
At this time, I was still very puzzled why I said it was for silver, and it wasn't until later that I realized that the fifth uncle's line of work couldn't be said so carefully.
On the one hand, the people below don't like to listen, and on the other hand, because the money of the living is different from the money of the dead, if you say something wrong, then there will be danger when you fish up the corpse, so there are many taboos.
I saw that the two of them discussed something, and then the fifth uncle took off his clothes.
The fifth uncle's figure is on the thin side, but surprisingly there are still quite a lot of muscles on his body.
Especially a scar on the back of the fifth uncle, the scar is about 20 centimeters long and 3 centimeters wide, from the left shoulder to the lower right waist.
It can be imagined how dangerous the fifth uncle was at that time.
Looking along the waist of the fifth uncle, I found that he had a pile of hemp rope wrapped around his waist.
The rope is very thick, and there are two steel hooks at the beginning, and there seems to be something on the hooks, but because the distance is a bit far, and it is too dark for me to see clearly.
The fifth uncle jumped directly after a plop, and the strange thing was that there was no water pattern after the fifth uncle jumped.
If the diving champion is here, it is estimated that he will also admire a few points.
Before going down, the fifth uncle handed over the rope at one end to the master Chang Xiao, and he put it on and pulled the rope again.
I know that once the fifth uncle is in danger or the corpse is pulled up, then the master will pull the rope as soon as possible.
Time passed minute by minute, and ten minutes later I said anxiously; "Master, why hasn't the fifth uncle come up yet? Isn't it ......"
"You kid shut up for me, didn't Lao Tzu tell you not to let you speak?"
Before I could finish speaking, the sound of the master's curse came over.
Although I knew in my heart that it was the master who didn't want me to have an accident, so he didn't let me speak, but the fifth uncle had been down for so long and hadn't moved, how could I not worry.
Without waiting for me to continue, the master's voice came again; "Don't worry, your fifth uncle is not so easy to burp, the calf diving is amazing, it is estimated that it will come up in about five minutes."
Sure enough, just when I was sweating profusely, the fifth uncle suddenly came out of the water.
"You're too old to have energy, aren't you? How did it take so long? ”
As soon as the fifth uncle appeared, the master pulled him to the boat and teased him, and the fifth uncle glared at the master and said; "I don't know what's going on down there, the body was found, but it just can't be pulled."
"What? Can't pull? Stuck? ”
Obviously, the master was also shocked, there are only two situations in which the corpse cannot come up, the first is that it is hung or stuck by something, and the corpse cannot float up by itself.
And the second is that the corpse itself is unwilling to come up, and at the same time becomes a sunken.
There are many kinds of situations in Shenzi, and if you are not careful, you will not be able to get involved.
The fifth uncle pondered for a while and said in a deep voice; "I'll go down later, this time the job is a bit tricky, and the little guy on the shore is probably going to help."
The master naturally knew what was going on, he glanced back at me on the shore, and finally gritted his teeth and said; "Cheng, this kid is the master's seed, not so cowardly, wait for you to go down and the two of us will be on it."
I listened to the master's words and followed the boat, saying that it was impossible not to be nervous, especially when I looked at the dark water around me.
Chang Xiao smiled and patted me on the shoulder and said; "Don't worry, your master and I won't let you have an accident. I'll probably go down with him later, and if something happens, you'll pull the rope. ”
"Huh?"
My eyes widened instantly, and my face was anxious; "Master, you go down too? Can...... But I can't pull it by myself. ”
It's not that I don't dare to pull a corpse, but it's the first time I've done this kind of thing, and I don't know what to do with it.
