Chapter 19 Encounter with a water monster
Lin Yuanqing was immersed in the icy river water at the moment, and could only swim upstream with a vague sense of direction.
The surface of the Cangjiang River looks calm, but there is an undercurrent surging under the surface of the water, and the strange rocks at the bottom of the river are craggy, and Lin Yuanqing's wounds are constantly bleeding out with the pull of the undercurrent.
He didn't dare to surface, he could only swim forward desperately, just swam not far away, he felt an abnormal water flow behind him, he was shocked, thinking that there were still pursuers, looking back, but found a dark behemoth swimming towards him quickly, which really scared him a lot.
After the black shadow swam closer, he found that it was a gray sturgeon, this kind of fish generally lives in the lower reaches of the Cangjiang River, feeds on small and medium-sized fish and shrimp in the river, usually can grow to a foot long, but the sturgeon in front of him is more than seven feet, then he remembered that when he was helping at the dock before, he often heard the boss of the boat say that there is a water monster in the lower reaches of the Cangjiang River, no one has ever seen its appearance, only know that this water monster is extremely fast, there have been crew members who accidentally fell into the river and were dragged into the bottom of the river, and after a while, only the clothes stained with blood stains were torn, and now they appear here, presumably following the smell of blood in the water。
Lin Yuanqing saw its mouth full of sharp teeth towards him and bit it, hurriedly adjusted his body, facing the sturgeon, holding the fish's mouth with both hands, and was pushed forward by the fish, the sturgeon's eyes were glowing with a faint blue light, looking eerie and terrifying, the powerful water pressure tore the wound on his back, and the blood that came out wrapped Lin Yuanqing like a red amber.
The sturgeon smelled blood, became more excited, twisted its body wildly, swam to the bottom of the river with Lin Yuanqing on its head, and hit a reef fiercely, Lin Yuanqing's mouth was sweet, and the only remaining oxygen in his lungs mixed with blood spurted out, and he scolded in his heart: "This beast actually knows to hit me!"
After the sturgeon hit him, he circled around the stone and swam towards him quickly, Lin Yuanqing swam towards the water with all his might, his consciousness became more and more blurred, and at this moment, when the sturgeon's big mouth was about to bite Lin Yuanqing, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, remembering the light exercise method taught by Hong Er, regardless of his internal injuries, he strengthened his internal strength again, and his body seemed to become weightless, swaying with the current, and narrowly avoided the attack of the sturgeon, and swam again.
His head broke through the water surface suddenly, he breathed heavily, and then he looked at it, and there were two waves on the water not far away that quickly approached him, and the anger in his heart also exploded: "I follow the beast either you die or I live, how can I keep it and continue to harm others!"
Taking a deep breath and diving into the water, he saw the sturgeon biting straight at him, reaching out to draw the short knife behind his back, but he was empty, and then he remembered that the short knife was knocked down on the shore, and he was annoyed, and the big mouth had been forced in front of him, his body moved sideways, and the sturgeon passed by, and reached out to pick the tail fin of the fish, and he swam forward with a strong pull.
The sturgeon's tail hurt, flicking its tail wildly, the tail fin was unusually sharp, and the clothes on Lin Yuanqing's chest were scratched in a few clicks, and he had no choice but to let go and show his head for ventilation.
And the sturgeon saw that he got rid of Lin Yuanqing's control, swam farther away, and accelerated towards him, the river was turbid, and in the night, the visibility was really low and terrifying, Lin Yuanqing could only rely on sensing the current and the near vision to dodge, relying on the light skill of the flash of inspiration just now, and kept changing the direction with the help of the undercurrent, waiting for this attack.
This time the sturgeon no longer opened its mouth, it was faster, and it actually hit him straight, and when Lin Yuanqing saw the sturgeon's sharp mouth, he couldn't help but be shocked, if he was hit, he would be directly pierced.
Lin Yuanqing flicked his hands and brushed by the sturgeon again, he just breathed a sigh of relief, but saw the fishtail sweeping towards him, and saw that he couldn't dodge, so he could only put his arms on his chest and resist this blow.
This sweep was extremely powerful, and it swept Lin Yuanqing out of the water, flew a few meters and then fell back, his arms were in severe pain, but there was no weapon in his hand, so he could only fall to the point of being bitten.
The sturgeon seemed to know that Lin Yuanqing was injured, and kept circling around him, and when he saw the opportunity, he opened his mouth tentatively to bite, and Lin Yuanqing could only rely on the little internal force left to dodge hard, and the scene was a bit stalemate for a while, but Lin Yuanqing knew that the wounds on his body would not be treated, and sooner or later he would lose too much blood and faint here, and then he would become the food in the belly of the sturgeon, and he was anxious, and he was not careful, and was scratched by the fish's mouth on his left abdomen.
The pain made his anger bigger and bigger, and he said, "Damn!
Just when the sturgeon stabbed again, Lin Yuanqing kicked the water hard, his body turned, his arms wrapped around the fish's mouth, and his hands were clasped tightly.
After the mouth was buckled, the sturgeon twisted its body like crazy, quickly went downstream, and rushed to the reef at the bottom of the river again, just like this, it hit several reefs in a row, Lin Yuanqing's back has been scratched by the reef, and the strong anger made him keep pushing his knees to the sturgeon's eyes, the sturgeon twisted more intensely, Lin Yuanqing refused to let go, and was shaken dizzy.
Seeing that his hands were about to be exhausted, Lin Yuanqing suddenly opened his big mouth and bit the gills of the sturgeon fiercely, and fiercely tore off a piece of the gills with his teeth, and then bit one bite after another.
The sturgeon also kept rolling in the water, and Lin Yuanqing now had only one thought, he couldn't let go! He kept biting the sturgeon's wounds, and gradually the river water around them was completely dyed red.
Lin Yuanqing slowly felt that the sturgeon in his arms was no longer moving, and there was not much air left in his lungs, he numbly waved his unconscious arms and swam towards the water, took a few big breaths, looked at the river surface that was already red, and slowly swam to the riverside with trembling, and at the moment when his feet stepped on the ground, he fell to the ground like a loss of strength, his eyes were black, and he fainted.
