Chapter 74: Encounter the Bone Eater Again

After the group packed their bags, they began to continue on their way, and there were too many things that happened along the way, so that everyone couldn't accept it for a while, but the matter had come to this point, and no one could turn back, so they could only move on.

Lin Chunxi and the team leader walked at the front of the team, looking for a suitable route according to the description on the notes given by the old Miao doctor, due to the changes last night, the old Miao doctor seemed to have aged a lot overnight, no one could bear to bother him again, Luo Yifei silently accompanied the old man, supporting him to move forward slowly.

According to the notes on the note, Lin Chunxi carefully examined the plants and terrain along the way, and found that he was getting closer and closer to the center of the swamp. The waters in the swamp are getting wider and wider, and there is a faint tendency to converge into a river, but through the faint mist, you can gradually see a small land in the center of the river.

The leader beckoned his companions to re-set up the bamboo raft and prepare to cross the river. Due to the wide surface of the water and the heavy fog in the air, one must be very cautious about moving forward. Lin Chunxi and the others always paid attention to the situation above the water surface, and patches of algae floated on the water surface, and with the breeze drifting alone on the water surface, it seemed even more desolate in the swamp.

When everyone walked to the middle of the river, the wind on the water surface became stronger and stronger, and there were gradually some shallow waves on the water surface, and the bamboo raft shook slightly with the wind on the water surface. Due to the simplicity of the bamboo raft, there was no device to hold on to it, and everyone was faintly unstable on their feet.

Bai Ling almost fell into the water several times, Lin Chunxi grabbed her and told her to pay attention to safety, Bai Ling held Lin Chunxi's sword hilt tightly, so that he could stand firmly. Rao is so, and he is becoming more and more embarrassed.

Supposedly, there shouldn't be any strong winds this season, but the humidity in the swamp is very different from the dry areas outside. The crowd staggered forward.

This was an unusual fluctuation on the water surface, which aroused Lin Chunxi's alarm, and he hurriedly reminded everyone that everyone immediately came to the edge of the bamboo raft, and there seemed to be something in the water driving the current, and the bamboo raft was coming closer in all directions. Seeing that it was about to land, no matter what it was, it was not appropriate to involve too much energy at this time, and the team leader ordered everyone to continue to speed up the march.

However, the speed of the objects in the water is not slow, and it is gradually forming a situation of encircling the three bamboo rafts. The other party obviously had bad intentions, Lin Chunxi held his hand on the hilt of the sword, staring at the abnormal movement in the water.

The shadows in the water were getting closer and closer, and everyone's temperament was getting more and more nervous, and suddenly a Miao man shouted in a crying voice, "It's the fish, it's those fish!!"

Lin Chunxi's heart tightened, what could make Miao Min so scared was probably the terrifying bone-eating fish. Sure enough, the figures of those devils gradually appeared in the water, they surrounded the bamboo raft, staring at the people on the bamboo raft, the number of fish and its numerous, far more than the previous scale.

Everyone was a little panicked at this time, at this time to the middle of the water, encountered these devils who eat people and do not spit out bones, it was really a dilemma, the group was very nervous in their hearts, knowing that once they fell into the water, they would definitely be gnawed to the bones, and they firmly grasped the bamboo raft.

Everyone was worried that these bone-eating fish would immediately attack the bamboo raft, but what they didn't expect was that the fish just surrounded the bamboo raft and did not launch any attack. Miao people carefully paddled the bamboo pole, wherever the bamboo pole went, the fish would automatically avoid, and where the bamboo raft went, the fish would give way to it, but they were always staring at the people on the bamboo raft.

The old Miao doctor suddenly spoke, and said in a weak voice, "It seems that this is the characteristic of bone-eating fish, they are only interested in living things, and they are not interested in flesh and blood objects at all, and they will even be like ordinary fish, timid and avoid, but when they encounter flesh-and-blood people or animals, they will arouse their ferocity", everyone thought about his words carefully, and felt that it was very reasonable, if it wasn't for the ferocity of these fish that they had seen before, I am afraid they would treat them as ordinary fish in the water.

As it stands, as long as they are not alarmed, these fish will not stop everyone from moving towards the shore. But Rao is like this, and everyone's hearts are still full of palpitations, vigilantly watching the every move of the strange fish in the water.

Suddenly, Lin Chunxi's boat was in a situation, only to hear a "click" sound, as if something was broken, startled everyone hurriedly looking for the sound point, or Qingshan found the theme, it turned out that the leather rope that tied the bamboo raft was broken, the bamboo raft was fixed with three leather ropes with strong toughness, and the one that had just broken was the one from the back of the bamboo raft.

This frightened everyone, because the bamboo behind began to scatter, under the impact of the current, the leather rope that fixed the bamboo raft in the middle was also a little loose, if the bamboo raft broke at this time, once it fell into the water, it would definitely be attacked by the bone-eating fish.

Thinking of this, Lin Chunxi hurriedly prepared to start moving to the other two bamboo rafts, because the bamboo raft itself could not bear the strength, it was impossible to stand too many people at one time, otherwise there would be a risk of sinking.

Lin Chunxi comforted everyone to stay calm, and at the same time arranged for the people on the bamboo raft to start moving to the two next ones, and the bamboo rafts on both sides had formed a side by side with the one that was in trouble. Lin Chunxi first asked Bai Ling to retreat first, and Bai Ling pulled Lin Chunxi to death, but Lin Chunxi insisted on letting Bai Ling get out of danger before the bamboo raft was completely broken. Lu Yiru on the bamboo raft on the left stretched out his hand and grabbed Bai Ling, and Lin Chunxi held Bai Ling's waist and sent him to a safe position.

The people on the bamboo raft on both sides followed the people on the bamboo raft in turn little by little, and at this time, only Lin Chunxi was left on the bamboo raft. Due to the shaking of Fang Cai, the leather rope that fixed the middle of the bamboo raft suddenly cracked, Lin Chunxi was crooked on one side, and almost fell into the water, he hurriedly raised his hands flat, trying to maintain his balance, because the bamboo raft became more and more unbearable, the three leather ropes were soon broken one after another.

Lin Chunxi stood on a pillar at this time, holding a pillar horizontally in his hand, barely maintaining his life, and the other two bamboo rafts were faintly draught because they had carried too many people. After Lin Chunxi stabilized his figure, he motioned to the people on both sides to move forward quickly and leave him alone.

I saw that Lin Chunxi was independent of the bamboo pole, and at this time almost all the bone-eating fish had gathered around him, surrounding him, opening his mouth from time to time to reveal the sharp teeth inside, Lin Chunxi tried to maintain his balance on the water, and then cautiously waved the bamboo pole and slowly rowed towards the shore.
