Chapter 2: The Fish Monster

The three of them were originally very good in the water, but after falling into the water, they were still not in a hurry, and when they saw the big fish scurrying around with fishing nets, they hurried to chase after it. They couldn't see clearly in the water, but Haibao could see clearly in the boat, and suddenly a row of barbs stood up on the back of the big fish, like sharp knives. Haibao was taken aback and hurriedly shouted, "Daddy, Uncle Liu, Uncle Seven, come up!" The three of them just thought that Haibao was young and scared, so they asked them to get on the boat and ignored it.

The big fish was escaping, and suddenly turned around and hit Yang Liushu's head, at this time Yang Liushu saw a row of sharp barbs erected on the belly of the big fish, and hurriedly dodged, but the fish was too fast, only to feel that the calf was numb for a while, and it had been hit by the big fish! The blood suddenly stained the surrounding sea water red!

The fish looked at the hit, and was extremely excited, and rushed towards Old Man Zhang with revenge. Old man Zhang hurriedly dodged and dodged the blow. At this time, Uncle Yang only felt that his right leg was numb, and he didn't listen to the call, and his hands fluttered on the water, and he was about to sink into the water. Yang Laoqi hurried over to save Yang Laoliu. The fish attacked Yang Lao Liu again, and Yang Lao Liu had no choice but to dodge.

At this time, some fishermen not far away noticed the situation here and were stunned. A few brave people picked up harpoons and jumped into the water to drive away the big fish and help save Yang Lao Liu. The fish attacked the crowd as if it had gone mad, and in the blink of an eye two more people were injured.

Hypertherm was on the boat, stomping his feet in a hurry. Seeing that the fish jumped again and attacked Daddy, he didn't think about it, and roared and pounced straight at the big fish. At the moment when he was about to fall into the water, he stretched out his fist and struck the big fish the body! The big fish seemed to feel a surging momentum behind him, and his body was about to dodge, but he was still hit sideways by a circle of Haibao. But the punch didn't hurt it at all, and it immediately turned around and charged straight at Hypertherm.

Although this punch hit the big fish, Hypertherm was still taken aback: the fist hit the big fish, it was like hitting a hard stone, and the big fish did not lose a single scale, and his hand shook painfully. While dodging the attack of the big fish, he thought of a way to defeat the big fish. He clings around the big fish, luring it to focus on himself and prevent it from attacking others, so that he can give them a chance to save the injured fishermen. In the blink of an eye, the big fish received a few more punches. But the big fish was still not hurt at all, but even crazier.

At this time, several injured fishermen were rescued from the boat. All they saw was a fierce battle between the big fish and Haibao in the water, the sea rolling, the waves splashing everywhere, and every attack and dodge was as fast as lightning, and Haibao was simply more agile than a fish! Old man Zhang loved his son and refused to get on the boat, and two fishermen with good water characteristics waited for an opportunity to help in the water, but Haibao and the big fish fought in close quarters, and they couldn't get involved, and they wanted to use harpoons, but they were afraid of hurting Haibao.

Suddenly, the big fish jumped out of the water again and smashed it at Haibao, the barbs on its abdomen and back standing up. Although it jumped out of the water, the action was extremely fast, and it only fell in an instant.

The hearts of the people rose to their throats and they exclaimed in unison.

I saw that Haibao did not dodge, and actually stretched out his fist and went straight to the big fish! At the moment when the fist was about to touch the barb in the abdomen of the big fish, he suddenly changed direction and slammed it diagonally towards the eyes of the big fish.

The big fish couldn't dodge, and he was punched firmly in his right eye, and suddenly the blood flowed, and the pain rolled straight up, stirring up a huge wave. After a few rolls, the water turned red.

Everyone could see clearly that the whole right eye of the big fish was bloody, and it was very terrifying, and everywhere it went, the sea water was stained red.

Haibao was already breathing a sigh of relief, seeing that he had injured the big fish, so he chased after him to strike again, but when the big fish saw Haibao approaching again, he was already frightened, lost his fighting spirit, drilled into the water, and fled straight into the deep sea.

The people on the shore breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and hurriedly pulled Old Man Zhang, the other two fishermen, and Haibao onto the boat. Haibao felt exhausted at this time, panting and sitting on the boat to rest.

Just when everyone's spirit was relaxed, they suddenly saw the black waves rolling not far away, surging in a surging manner. Everyone was taken aback, and someone shouted, "Run! There's a monster in the water!"

At this shout, everyone packed up their things and quickly rowed the boat to the shore. Hypertherm looked back and saw that the waves were rolling up more than two people tall and swooping towards their boat. "Whoa!" a backward fishing boat was overturned, and the fishermen on board fell into the water screaming.

"Oh no, someone's overboard, get back!" Hypertherm shouted, jumping into the water.

Old man Zhang and Yang Laoqi saw Haibao jump into the water and hurriedly stopped the boat. When a brave fisherman heard someone overboard, he stopped and looked for an opportunity to help save someone.

However, the waves came more violently at the people, and in an instant, two more fishing boats were capsized. The timid screamed desperately to run for their lives, and the bold simply jumped into the water, holding the idea of "instead of being beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to attack", and someone shouted "Don't be afraid, there are many of us, fight with that monster!"

Hypertherm dodged the waves in the water as she swam towards the drowning man. At this time, he could see clearly that the black waves were wrapped in dense small fish. No wonder the force was so great on the boat! Because there were too many small fish, it was impossible to wipe them all out, so Haibao had to go to save people first.

Suddenly, there was a huge force behind him, and Hypertherm was swept out of the water, and then fell down heavily. At the moment when he was thrown, he saw that in the middle of the black waves, silver light flashed, and it was the big fish that had escaped just now, and at this time he was opening his bloody mouth and heading towards a fisherman in the water, his right eye became a hole, the flesh was turned out, and the white eyeballs were still hanging outside, looking disgusting and terrifying.

Hypertherm yelled, "Be careful!" and scurried over, with five fingers bent toward the belly of the big fish, and a claw. He was fast and ruthless, and his five fingers sank into the belly of the big fish, grabbing a large piece of flesh and skin. The big fish was in pain, let go of the fisherman who had just bitten it, and turned back to pounce on Haibao.

Haibao dodged a few times, but there were many small fish circling around him in front of him, restricting his movements. Suddenly, a small fish rolled up in front of him like a dense patch, blocking the view, and then a strong fishy smell came to the nose, and the whole body was bitten horizontally by a large mouth. He could even feel the sharp teeth digging into his hips.

He knew that if he attacked the fish monster's body again, it would only provoke it to anger and make it more thorough. In desperation, the two fingers bent slightly, like iron hooks, they dug into the left eye of the fish monster, and the left eye of the monster was dug out at once.

The fish monster let go of its clenched mouth in pain, and Hypertherm took the opportunity to flip around and grab the fish monster's upper and lower jaws with both hands. The fish monster writhed wildly, flailing its head wildly, and Hypertherm held on to it, using all her strength to break off the fish monster's jaw.

The fish monster flicked its body a few times, and suddenly stopped moving.

Hypertherm looked at the huge corpse that floated slowly with the force of the current, and knew that this nightmare was finally over. He gasped for air on the surface, his fingers stiffened and unsensational, especially curved, from overexertion.

Old man Zhang and Yang Lao Liu came over and pulled Haibao onto the boat. Haibao sat and rested for a while, then came back to his senses and gained strength.

As soon as the fish monster died, those small fish quickly disappeared, and the sea was calm, only wisps of blood emanated from around the fish monster, and the smell was stinking.

The fishermen all returned to the boat, but fortunately no one lost their lives, except for a few with a few skin injuries.

After the wind and waves are calm, the fishermen can be like a fried pot, and you and I are talking about the danger just now.

One of the fishermen exclaimed, "If it weren't for Haibao today, we would probably all be hiding in the belly of that monster!"

Everyone echoed and praised Haibao for being brave and watery. Besides, he is very young, just a boy less than ten years old, which is even more amazing! Even Daddy Zhang doesn't know when Haibao learned such a good water nature, only that he has more strength than children of the same age, and although he can swim, it is just a child's family fluttering in the water a few times and playing at will!

Someone asked Hypertherm, "Hypertherm, when did you learn such good water nature?"

Haibao was stunned and couldn't answer, and said in a hurry: "This...... I don't know. ”

The man said, "You're so bold, aren't you afraid that the monsters will eat you?"

Haibao said: "Why don't you think so much, it's just to see the big fish rushing towards Uncle Cui, and jumping down in a hurry." ”

In fact, if it weren't for this fierce battle in a hurry, Haibao wouldn't have known that he could swim so well and so fast in the water! Everyone saw that this kid was honest and well-behaved, but in fact he was smart, witty and brave, far higher than children of the same age, and they admired it for a while, which made Haibao embarrassed.

Another human: "Haibao, you are really a 'sea fish' in the water!" Since then, some people have called Haibao "sea fish", and the story of Haibao Fighting Fish Monster has also spread. Word of mouth inevitably exaggerated, and even more, adding oil and vinegar to the words, how powerful the fish monster was, the intensity of the scene increased several times. A curious person asked Haibao, but Haibao smiled innocently, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Let's say that Old Man Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were really worried about Haibao for a while, and they were afraid that someone with good things would come and lure Haibao into deep water, especially the children were fighting and competitive, and they were not allowed to do anything. So the old lady told her son: "Bao'er, listen to your mother, don't go to deep water in the future, there are many strange things in the water! Don't let your father and mother worry." ”

Hypertherm said, "Yes, Mom, the kid remembers." ”

The old man said: "If someone asks you to go, you can't go, don't compare with other children, be competitive, endure everything you can, don't cause anything, remember?"

Hypertherm said, "Yes, Daddy, the boy wrote it down." The old couple was a little more relieved.

The old lady asked again, "Bao'er, did you secretly go to learn to swim with your father behind my back?" Who taught you?"

"No one has ever taught a child," says Hypertherm. It's just that as soon as I jumped into the water, I felt very comfortable, and my hands and feet were very relaxed, as if I had grown in the water. ”

The old lady said, "It's probably natural to be watery." But also pay attention, as the saying goes, 'those who drown know water', and the better the water, the more you should pay attention. If you have cramps in your legs and feet in the water, or you can't lift them in one breath, it's over. ”

Haibao agreed, and the old couple was relieved.

said that Zhang Haibao's reputation spread, and there were few boys of the same age who were not convinced. Children at this age are more competitive and love to fight, and when they hear adults praise Haibao, they are not convinced. Especially the boy named Xiaoliang in the same village. Xiao Liang is two years older than Hypertherm, mischievous and unreasonable, and his parents always use Hypertherm as an example to teach him a lesson. Every now and then, he was very angry in his heart, and he poured all the anger in his heart on Haibao, vowing to teach Haibao a lesson one day.

The opportunity has finally arrived. It was an unusually hot day, and most of the adults gathered under the big trees in the village to cool off, while the children ran to swim in the river outside the village. There is a section of the creek that is shaded by a few leafy willow trees, which is very cool, so children gather in this section of the river. In order to cool off, Hypertherm also came here.

When Xiaoliang saw Haibao coming, he laughed from afar: "Haha, the big hero is coming! The big hero is coming!" The children laughed.

Haibao knew that he was trying to find fault and didn't want to cause trouble, so he ignored it, went down the river by himself, immersed his body in the water, closed his eyes and slowly enjoyed the coolness brought by the river.

That little Liang instigated a few children to flutter around Haibao, splashing with bursts of water. Seeing that Haibao still ignored it, he simply picked up the water and sprinkled it on Haibao's head.

Haibao opened his eyes, Xiao Liang laughed, and said, "I thought the big hero was dead, but I still have a breath!" and the children laughed too.

Haibao said: "What do you want?"

Xiao Liang said: "Big hero, do you dare to compete with me?"

Haibao said: "Than what?"

Xiao Liang said: "Aren't you very good at water? Let's compare water." ”

Haibao said: "No. With that, he swam away into the distance with a stroke of his limbs.

The surrounding children were disappointed to see that Hypertherm was gone. Originally, they wanted to watch a good show, and they also wanted to see if Haibao was really as powerful as the adults said, and many of them had been bullied by Xiaoliang, and they hoped in their hearts that Haibao could teach Xiaoliang a lesson and vent their evil anger for them. As soon as Hypertherm was gone, they dispersed in despair.

Seeing that Haibao refused to fight, and all the children no longer gathered around him, Xiao Liang was very angry and shouted: "Zhang Haibao, I know that you have a false name." You wild seed, coward, turtle grandson, bastard!"

Hearing him scold himself for being a wild seed, Haibao couldn't help but feel angry, and turned around and said, "What's the comparison?"

Xiao Liang was very happy when he saw Haibao fighting, and said, "How about swimming?" Let's take this small bridge as a starting point to see who swims first to the bottom of the small bridge at the entrance of Yazui Village. As he spoke, he pointed to the small bridge in front of the village in the distance.

The villages of Duckbill and Eaglebeak are adjacent to each other, and this small river crosses in front of the two villages. From here, the small river at the mouth of Yazui Village is about four or five miles away.

Haibao nodded, "Okay!" and swam towards the creek in front of the village.

The surrounding friends all went ashore and ran to the edge of the small bridge to wait. Someone shouted, "It's a good show, it's a good show!"

Haibao and Xiaoliang stood still on the bridge, found a friend and shouted "start", and the two "plopped" from the bridge into the water and began to swim in the direction of Yazui Village.

The friends ran on the shore for a while, watched for a while, and chased the two of them.

I saw the two of them writhing their bodies like two loaches in the water, occasionally startling a few water birds and flying into the sky.

After swimming about two miles, Haibao gradually left Xiao Liang behind. Xiao Liang struggled to catch up, seeing that the distance between the two was getting farther and farther away, he couldn't help but be discouraged, and simply swam ashore and gasped for breath.

Some friends came around and said, "Xiaoliang, why did you come up?

Xiao Liang said: "I'm tired to death, this kid does have a set, but I still have a trick, I want to compete with him again." ”

A little friend said to Haibao: "Haibao, come back quickly, you won!"

Haibao had already seen Xiao Liang go ashore, and his speed slowed down, and when he heard his friend calling him, he also climbed ashore.

Xiao Liang said: "Haibao, I lost this game, but this is not to say that your swimming skills are better than mine, you just have some stamina than me." Let's compare dives to see who can dive longer. If you win me again in this game, I will be convinced, and I will never scold you again, and I will not let others scold you. ”

Haibao said: "Okay! A man's words count!" As he spoke, he stretched out his palm, and Xiao Liang also stretched out his palm and slapped it hard on Haibao's palm and said, "If you don't count, you're a bastard of the turtle!"

When the friends saw the two high-five and swear, they thought it was funny and cheered one after another.

The two asked two more sensible boys to testify, and then jumped into the water separately. The children only saw ripples on the water, and the two bodies sank straight down, and soon disappeared.

Children were waiting on the shore. At first, there were people talking and laughing, but gradually they all quieted down and stared at the water calmly. But after the meal, there was still no movement on the water.

The children began to stir. One of the two boys who testified worriedly: "If you haven't come up for so long, don't have an accident." ”

Another child said, "Probably not, both of them are very water-based." Isn't Xiao Liang usually able to dive for a long time? ”

So the children waited again on the still water.

Another meal passed, and there was still no movement. The children became anxious and began to worry, and someone shouted into the water: "Haibao!

There was still not a trace of movement on the water.

The two children who testified also panicked, cautiously went down the river, dived to the place where Haibao and Xiaoliang went into the water and touched for a while, but found nothing except a few handfuls of aquatic plants.

The two of them were anxious and said, "Go back and tell the adults, Haibao and Xiaoliang have an accident!"

The children panicked, crying and shouting, and ran towards the village.
