Chapter 057 Diving
After walking for dozens of meters, the gathered earth qi was finally exhausted.
I stopped, a little hesitant.
Seeing this, the third uncle asked, "How do you go now?" It seems that the earth qi has disappeared. ”
I nodded: "Take advantage of the fact that there is still a little white candle left, take a gamble, this is already the place where I feel the weakest yin qi." ”
The third uncle hummed and asked, "What are we going to do?" ”
"Now you need a person to dive into the river, and as long as you can get through the silt, you can get out of the ghost."
The third uncle looked surprised, frowned and said, "Xiaolong, this ......."
"Third uncle, I don't need to lie to you, just look at your clothes and you'll know."
Each of them had dry mud on their clothes, and it was clear at a glance.
It's just that even the third uncle who trusts me the most is a little hesitant.
Diving into the river, everyone remembers how the two were dragged into the river just now.
There was silence.
I glanced at the shadow: "The shadow is almost unbearable, you should decide quickly." The ghost hadn't come yet, and by the time he did, it was too late. ”
The third uncle pursed his lips and was about to agree, when a woman walking in the middle spoke: "Why don't you go, you are so strong, you will definitely be able to pass through, and we will all be saved by then." ”
I looked displeased and was about to speak.
The strong man holding the thin man said, "You are stupid, this master has gone, what should we do?" ”
"He, he can leave the shadow behind."
The strong man gave her a blank look and said to me: "I'll go, I've liked swimming since I was a child, and my skills are very good." ”
I nodded, the risk of diving into the river is not small, there are other options, and I don't want the third uncle to take risks.
"Okay, be careful, I'll do my best to keep you safe."
The strong man nodded, wanting to put the thin man down, but he didn't find a suitable position, so he simply shoved the thin man into the hands of the person next to him. Then move your hands and feet.
"Where to get off?"
I pointed to the weakest place of yin qi: "You should be faster, don't stay in the river for too long." ”
The place I pointed at was less than half a meter away from the shadow, but the strong man compared and compared, for fear that he would accidentally deviate from the direction.
Just when I couldn't help but urge him, the strong man jumped into the river with a very standard posture.
Perhaps because of nervousness, as soon as he came into contact with the river, the strong man's movements were immediately deformed, and the dog was digging downward.
Anyway, I dived my whole body into the water.
The silt was turned up, and the river was even more turbid, and there was no strong man in sight.
Around, attracted by the strong man falling into the water, the yin qi is constantly approaching.
But I had no choice, and as soon as I walked over, under the influence of the shadows, the river would be drained, and the strong man would not be able to pass through the silt.
"Come on."
I prayed in my heart, but I heard the sound of cheering.
It was the thin man who stood in the place where the strong man had been, staring at the water tightly, his face full of worry, more serious than me.
One second, two seconds, and when I counted to the third second, I suddenly felt the ghost snake be broken.
The strong man succeeded.
The yin qi around is getting thicker and thicker, and time is running out.
"He succeeded, just where he was, quickly."
The words fell, and a second later, two figures jumped out at the same time, slammed into each other in mid-air, scrambling to dive to the place where the strong man had dived.
This did not speed up, but because of the scramble, neither of the two succeeded.
Oops, ill-conceived.
I grumbled and said loudly, "Drag the one up there." ”
The third uncle and the others immediately moved and dragged one of them back.
The man cursed until I stared at him coldly, and then he shrunk his neck: "I, I've touched the mud." ”
"Shut up, now listen to my arrangement, third uncle, you go first."
The third uncle nodded and jumped into the river.
Under my arrangement, all the villagers left the ghost through the earth qi node.
As the yin air gets heavier, the river gets colder and colder, and the people who jump into the water move more and more slowly.
Seeing that the white candle was about to burn out, the rest of the people became excited. Constantly urging and cursing the people who went into the water.
I was also a little anxious, but fortunately, as the number of people decreased, the shadow of the collection became much thicker, and it would not be eroded by the river for a while.
A few minutes later, there were only three people left except me.
I pointed to the woman who had left me in the shadow: "You, hurry up. ”
"I, I can't swim."
Hearing this, I didn't hesitate to point to another person.
The man jumped straight in, and it didn't seem to be a good swimmer, and it took him half a minute to dive into the river.
I looked at the woman again, and the man I had dragged back because he had preemptively said, "I, I'll go first." ”
I didn't look at him, but said to the woman, "Still not jumping?" ”
As I spoke, my fingers slowly moved towards the person who was in the lead.
The woman hesitated, but the man rushed out and plunged headlong into the river.
I frowned, watched him disappear, and then said, "If you don't go down, I'll go down." ”
The woman finally mustered up the courage to jump into the water.
What I didn't expect was that she really couldn't swim at all, and her survival instinct made her struggle on the surface instead of diving.
After waiting for a while, I even suspected that she was not going to dive at all, but wanted to climb ashore.
The yin qi is already less than 10 meters away from me, and the ghost snake affected by the earth qi is gradually recovering.
I didn't dare to wait any longer and jumped straight into the water.
What I didn't expect was that the woman actually took me as a lifesaver and grabbed me directly.
The threat of death made her so strong that she hugged my neck and refused to let go.
"Don't blame me."
I clenched my fist with one hand and slammed it the back of the woman's head.
The woman's hand loosened, and I immediately took the opportunity to dive, and when I touched the mud, my hand groped upward.
Soon, I grabbed the woman's kicking foot and pulled her directly into the river.
With a person through the mud with difficulty, when I stood up, I saw the third uncle and others in a circle.
When they saw me appear, they immediately stepped forward and helped me to run to the shore.
I pointed at the woman with some prostration, and the third uncle called two young people to pull the woman who had choked on the water and was unconscious ashore.
On the shore, I saw a blind man with a weak face, and I couldn't help but say, "You, you're really useless." ”
Blind Liu jumped up suddenly: "I'm useless, you ask, if it weren't for me, this passage would have been closed a long time ago." I'm useless? ”
The third uncle nodded at me, and said with some embarrassment: "The passage was indeed closed just now, and it was all up to Liu Ye to stabilize it, and the person before you ......"
"What's wrong with that man?"
"Because the passage is closed, only half of my body comes out."
The third uncle said, pointing to the side, and I saw that there was a person's upper body, intestines and other contents flowing out of the abdominal cavity, and it was already lifeless, it was the guy who jumped before the woman.
