At first glance, this thing looks like a black human hand with bones growing on the outside, but obviously the white bones on the outside are soft. For a while, it was difficult for me to describe what it was. I saw it crawling like a snake.

It crawled through the underwater hole and looked almost boneless.

I was stunned at that time, and a series of thoughts flashed through my mind. I didn’t know how to react. Is this the thing in the water just now? Isn’t it right? There are so many things in the water, and why is it like this?

The young master shushed me twice from behind and when I didn't respond, he ran up to hold me back and pulled me back. If I didn't react, he pulled me to the ground.

The thing suddenly felt the vibration at the bottom of the warehouse when we moved, and suddenly it rose up, made a contraction movement, and suddenly rolled over.

When I saw that it was bad, I pushed the young master and the two of them to the side, and the tentacles rolled up empty.

I conveniently picked up an iron pipe from the bottom of the boat. The young master also threw out his machete and wanted to fight with the big guy under the water. It's not enough to beat us with food and drinks. Look at this thing, it's tall and tall, but not thick or thick, but I'm afraid of you.

At this time, we suddenly heard the sound of metal friction coming from behind. When we looked back, we saw that Lao Cai had run out of the bottom warehouse and was forcefully closing the sealed door of the bottom warehouse.

"What are you doing!" The young master shouted in surprise. This kind of door is used to buy time for rescue when there is a hole in the bottom of the boat. It uses a sealed rubber ring to expand the door. Once it is closed inside, we will be killed and we will not be able to get out. The water will fill us up.

You will be trapped to death.

The old man was startled when he heard the young master's cry. He immediately increased his strength and continued to pull on the iron door, as if he really wanted to lock us in. We no longer cared about the tentacles and rushed over to grab the crack in the door to prevent it from closing.

The two of us are naturally stronger than him. Both of us suppressed our blushes and finally slowly opened the door. When the old man saw that he couldn't support it, he immediately hit my hand with his head and forcefully without knowing why.

He hit his head very hard and his head was broken. My fingers were hit with severe pain and I subconsciously let go.

The young master's position was not good. I let go of my hand. He couldn't bear the strength and let go of his hand. At that moment, the iron door was closed. I immediately heard the sound of locking outside. I yelled and slammed the door with the iron pipe.

Before he could finish cursing the young master, he suddenly screamed and fell into the water.

Looking back, it turned out that the tentacles had wrapped around his waist and were trying to pull him into the hole in the bottom of the boat. The young master held on to the rivet seam of a boat beam on one side and pressed it against the bottom of the boat to prevent him from being pulled into the water. Look where I am.

Dai yelled: "You donkey, I can't stand it anymore, please help me!"

I reacted immediately and went up and hit the tentacle hard with the iron rod. Soon a very unpleasant smell of yellow sand came out from the skin of the tentacle. But the more I hit it, the tighter it became. The young master shouted to me: "Use the stick."

There's no need to shoot it with a crossbow!"

I saw that the crossbow was still on the young master's back and I quickly went up to pull it. But as if the thing knew my intention, it let go of the young master and turned to me. I rolled to the side and hit the wall with my hand. The iron bar fell away from me.

After all, the young master reacted quickly. As soon as he was freed, he immediately strung the bow and I rolled over. He shot a random arrow at the thing. The crossbow was too powerful at such a close distance, and almost all the bamboo arrows penetrated its body.

This thing was obviously in pain and made a strange noise that was indescribable. It bumped randomly in the cabin a few times and then almost retracted into the hole in the bottom of the boat within a few seconds.

The two of us sat paralyzed in the water and saw that the place where our hands touched the thing was full of yellow liquid and covered with the smell of yellow sand. This thing must have lived in the yellow sand at the bottom of the Mengjiang River.

I thought about it for a while and thought something was wrong. Why did the old man lock us in? I carefully walked to the hole in the bottom of the boat and looked at it. Suddenly I found that the iron sheet at the hole was curled downwards.

"What the fuck," I cursed, "The bottom of the ship was not blown up by our detonator. It looks like it was broken from the inside. I'm afraid it was the old guy who did it."

The young master said: "He is crazy. This is his own ship. Why did he sink it?"

I thought to myself: "How do I know? It's going to flood here. We have to find a way out."

The water continued to fill up from the hole at the bottom, and it reached up to our knees. We ran back and opened the door, but it was locked tightly. We banged on the door hard, but nothing happened. We used an iron pipe to

I tried using a pry bar but the door was too strong and wouldn't budge.

When the young master saw that the door could not be opened, he ran to the warehouse to find something to plug the hole. When I saw that the boat had a very deep draft and the current was too strong, it could not be blocked. He said to him: "It's useless! Don't waste your energy!"

"What should we do? Wait to die?"

I frowned and thought hard for a moment and said: "There is only one way. We have to get out of the hole! Then swim out along the bottom of the boat and then get out of the water!"

"But there's still that thing in the water! A crossbow is useless in the water. That's no joke."

"I can't control that much!" I said, "It's better than drowning."

When the young master thought about it, the two of them took off their shirts and tightened their legs and belt. I took the lead and without hesitation, dived into the water and got out through the hole in the bottom of the boat.

The current outside was frighteningly strong, but most of the force still surged into the hole in the bottom of the boat. I clawed at the edge of the hole to hold my body in place to prevent myself from being sucked back into the boat.

The young master also jumped down. I felt his feet touch my head. I pulled him to show that I was there too. Then I gritted my teeth and let go. I pedaled on the edge of the hole in the bottom of the boat, and with the force of the pedaling, the water flow circle at the bottom of the boat jumped out.

Everything went well. Although I closed my eyes, I could still feel that I was floating upward. No matter what the purpose was, the old man who wanted to kill us would never have thought that we would be so bold as to dive even though he knew there was something underwater.

.

Just when I was about to swim out of the water, I suddenly felt my ankle tighten and a huge force pull me down. I immediately felt my ears bulge and I didn't know how deep I was pulled down.

In the confusion, I subconsciously opened my eyes. I thought I wouldn't see anything in the turbid water. But when I opened them, I discovered that the water was not as turbid as I thought, and could even be said to be somewhat clear.

Probably because of the chaotic water flow here, a large amount of sand has been rolled to the surface of the water, so this place is turbid than any other section of the Yellow River, but the water below is much clearer.

But even so, the naked eye's vision in the water is very limited. In the chaos, I saw a huge fuzzy shadow winding up from the bottom of the water. It was more than ten meters long and countless tentacles extended from that shadow like a giant centipede or...

Like a huge waterweed.

I turned around and found that there were more than one such thing. Almost all around me were vague shadows that looked like centipedes. One end of them came from the dark bottom of the water, and the other end kept circling in the water. I tried hard to see this.

It’s easy to understand what things look like, but no matter how I use my eyes, all I can see are shadows.

After that, what was going on in my mind? Why are all kinds of monsters and ghosts wandering around? It would be a mistake to go out without reading the almanac.

The tentacles that pulled me were extremely powerful and kept pulling me into the deep water. I felt that the oxygen in my lungs was extremely reduced, and the things in front of me became more and more blurry. I was in despair. Suddenly, a figure appeared from the side and grabbed me. I took a look.

The outline of this shadow turned out to be Wang Ruonan.

I was wondering how she got down? She pointed down and asked me to curl up.

I couldn't understand what she meant at all and wanted to ask her to use the knife. Suddenly, the whole bottom of the water rippled and a large number of bubbles burst out of the water. I felt my ankles loosen and then an extremely strong shock wave of water suddenly threw us out.

I immediately understood that another detonator had exploded.

I held on to Wang Ruonan tightly, and I felt like the world was spinning for a while. My head relaxed, and I actually rushed to the water because I rose so fast. I touched my ears and nose, and there was blood. I wiped my eyes and saw that I had already been washed away from the boat two or three times.

Ten meters away.

Wang Ruonan was beside me but she was unconscious and sinking into the water. I quickly picked her up. Then I pulled her with one arm and chased her towards the boat desperately.

Fortunately, the current we were in was turbulent in the direction of the boat and I was already close to the boat.

I climbed onto the side of the boat and didn't care about anyone else. I put Wang Ruonan down and realized that she was not breathing. I panicked and quickly untied her underwear. Regardless of any taboos, a pair of big hands directly pressed down to suppress the water in her lungs.

Come out and lower your head and blow into her mouth.

As soon as I blew it, she coughed violently and spat a stream of smelly water into my face, then took a strong breath to regain her breathing.

I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her clothes spread out. I thought I would get slapped in the face if I encountered this situation on TV. I quickly wrapped up her clothes and buttoned them up. But all of a sudden, I didn't even remember her figure and feel.

live.

Just as I was regretting and wondering whether I should untie it again, I heard a sound of the door panel being kicked open. The old man fell out of the warehouse covered in blood. Then the young master came out with half a pole, picked it up, and beat him back.

While scolding: "I rely on you to harm your grandfather, I will throw you into the yellow soup today."

The old man stepped back and begged for mercy: "Master Li, I don't want my daughter to be sacrificed in the river if I don't do this. Please let me go."

The young master is famous as the King of Heaven. Calling me this kind of words has no effect on him. Before the old man finished speaking, he knocked the old man with another pole and knocked him upside down. I saw that if this continued, I had to give him a beating.

Hurry up and stop him.

Only then did the young master see me drop the pole and run over and shout: "Damn, I thought you two were dead, are you okay?"

I explained what had just happened and asked him, "What did you do? How did Ruonan get into the water?"

The young master said: "When I saw you being swept away by something, I knew something was wrong. When we got on the boat, the old man was about to attack Ruonan. He kicked me and knocked him down. When I told her about the situation, she

I jumped without thinking."

When I heard this, I glanced at the woman in front of me, whose face was as pale as snow, and suddenly felt a pang of distress.

The young master touched Ruonan's forehead and said that there was nothing serious about her. She probably just drank a few water. I picked up Ruonan and said goodbye to him. I beat the old man to death and wanted to ask him some questions. Then he took her into the guest cabin.

The old man was dragged in by the young master and tied to the foot of the stool. His face was covered with blood. This young master was too cruel. People like him offended too many people during the "Cultural Revolution". No wonder he is messing around so much now. I put Wang Ruonan down and warmed him up.

The lamp kept her warm. Then she kicked the old man and asked him: "What did you say just now? Why did you say it was done by people in your village?"

Lao Cai looked at us with disbelief, obviously not understanding how the two of us survived. When I asked, he nodded quickly: "Yes, yes! I can't help it..."

Before he finished speaking, the young master hit him again with a pole and beat him hard. I quickly stopped him and scolded him: "Why are you addicted to beating people? Why didn't I beat you in seven or eight years?"

This violent maniac is really going to let the tiger go home."

The young master said: "Damn, I hit him because I was really angry. Do you know why he wanted to kill us? You must know that you hit him harder than me."

I said: "This kind of person is either motivated by money or sex. Why else?"

The young master said: "If that's the case, I'll forgive him. We all share the same interests and it's understandable. But damn, he wanted to sink us and the boat, not because of this, but to sacrifice the river!! You said

Are you aggrieved or not? My eldest man, an old woman has supported me for thirty years and you sacrificed me to the river and treated us like beasts!"

As he was about to hit me again, he quickly stopped him and said, "Okay, why don't we sacrifice you to the river? Who asked us to choose them shows that our quality is relatively good." Then he said to Lao Cai: "What's wrong with your village?"

What's going on? In what age are you still doing this? Aren't you afraid of being shot?"

The old man saw that I was kinder and thought I was a savior. He immediately came over and said, "Master Xu, I'm really sorry for you. I don't want you to see that everyone in this village is like this. I can't help you. Please let me go. I'll give you a cure."

The boat goes wherever it goes. I don’t want the money anymore.”

I sneered and said, pull it down. Your boat has almost become a submarine. Why don’t you drive it to Naihe Bridge? You said to him: "If you want to survive, tell me exactly what happened. Otherwise, you should

It’s time for you to offer sacrifices to the river.”

Lao Cai immediately said: "I said it, I said it." Then he told everything about the village.
