Chapter 49: Xu Ronghua's Story (Scooping Up the Corpse)
Thinking of what was recorded in the book, I had a little bit of a score in my heart about what Chen Jinsheng just said, and I glanced back at the third child of the Xi family who followed him down, and turned around and swam underwater.
It was temporarily decided to go into the water to fish for the corpse, but without too much preparation, the fluorescence emitted by the corpse rope barely solved the problem of underwater lighting.
The surface of the rural river is turquoise, but it is still clear and visible in the water.
I was concentrating on my downward movement when I suddenly felt some turbulence in the current, and out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a dark shadow in the upper right moving rapidly towards me.
", this is coming?" I thought it was the third child of the Xi family who had bad intentions, scolded in my heart, flashed sideways, and swirled hard.
The rope of the corpse tied around the waist was wrapped around the waist, and there was an immediate feeling of tightness.
A greater agitation came, followed by a muffled sound not far from above.
When I looked up, I saw the third child of the Xi family pointing to his neck and pointing in the other direction.
Looking along his hand, he saw a big fish more than two feet long running away.
I realized that it wasn't the third child of the Xi family who wanted to attack me just now, but the big fish ghost who came over by mistake.
After a false alarm, I went around and let go of the rope, feeling that my breath was still sufficient, and made a gesture to the third child of the Xi family, and continued to dive.
I thought that the big fish was just passing by by accidentally, but I soon found out that it was not like that.
The big fish didn't swim far, and after being scared away by the third child of the Xi family for a distance, it turned back again.
Moreover, as the depth of the dive, more large and small swimming fish surround.
The third elder of the Xi family swam to me, pointed to my head, and pointed to the scar on his face.
I finally understood what he meant, and we both had wounds on our bodies, and the fish were attracted by the blood from the wounds.
Although the school of fish did not cause us any fatal harm, I felt a panic as more and more fish swam in.
These fish are not vegetarians, and now we can still move, and the fish dare not make a mistake, but if there is a mistake, the two of them will be forced to become their rations.
The third child of the Xi family didn't know whether he was subdued by me, or he thought of the same problem, so he gestured at me twice, and continued to go downstream first.
After swimming about five or six meters deeper, the school of fish behind him was already as dense and huge as dark clouds in the dark night.
Fortunately, the river is not too deep, and after swimming for a while, you can already vaguely see the bottom of the river.
The third child of the Xi family suddenly pulled the rope, pointed in one direction, and motioned for me to look.
Looking in the direction of his finger, I saw that about seven or eight meters away from us, there was a humanoid figure floating at the bottom of the river.
At this time, the third child of the Xi family turned his head, pointed upward, and motioned to go up for ventilation.
All I could do was nod, I didn't plan to get the dead in one go without diving tools.
It was like a figure entangled in water and weeds, and nine times out of ten it was the corpse we were looking for, and now that the specific location of the dead body was discovered, we had to go up to ventilate it first, and then come down in a puff and scoop up the dead body.
Back on the river, the two of them inhaled heavily. I could feel the schools of fish still surrounding us underwater, and even touching my body from time to time.
"Which of us carries the corpse?" The third child of the Xi family asked with a crying voice.
Looking at the way he looks, I know that he is really subdued by me. When I put the rope around his neck, I deliberately kept one hand and tied a complicated knot on the basis of the looper.
This knot is knotted according to the records in the broken book, and the purpose is to prevent the corpse from falling off when carrying the corpse, and to quickly untie it when there is an accident. If you know the ingenuity of this knot, you can untie it in two clicks, and those who don't understand it will look the same as a dead knot.
The third child of the Xi family is not a fool, he must have tried to untie the rope a long time ago, but the rope can't be untied at this time, so he naturally knows the result of resistance, and he has no intention of resisting.
I looked at my watch, and it was less than ten minutes at 11 o'clock at night.
"Don't talk about uselessness now, after you go down, act on the opportunity."
The third child of the Xi family had no choice but to nod, and the two of them took a full breath, plunged into the water again, and dived straight towards the location of the corpse.
This time, I quickly saw the figure of Fang Cai, swam a few times, and when I got to it, I didn't care about looking closely, so I wanted to untie the corpse rope in my waist first.
The third child of the Xi family suddenly turned around and gestured at me.
Seeing that I didn't know what I meant for a while, I stretched out my hand and dragged the floating 'person' violently.
As he dragged it on, I could already see that something was wrong, even underwater, the dead body shouldn't be so light.
When I looked closely, I almost didn't vomit blood.
What kind of corpse is this, it's simply a big cloud of rotting wood garbage entangled in aquatic plants! I don't know if it's a joke made by the river god, but at first glance, this mass of things looks like a person wrapped in water weeds!
The third child of the Xi family shook off the thing and swam towards me.
Suddenly, as if he had seen something terrible, his eyes widened suddenly, and he pointed one hand at me, but bubbles came out of his mouth and nose.
He choked on water!
Realizing this, combined with his movements, I suddenly realized the crisis, and just as I was about to flee from my current position, I felt a hand below me grab my foot and neck.
At the same moment, his back seemed to be violently hit by something huge, his internal organs churned, and his body was also thrown forward by the impact.
My eyes were black for a while, but I could only cover my mouth and nose tightly to avoid choking.
When his consciousness cleared up a little, he raised his head, and saw a huge black shadow quickly swimming over his body, rushing towards the third child of the Xi family not far away.
When the black shadow was farther away, I could see clearly through the light from the rope on my back that it was a huge catfish!
This catfish is almost more than a meter long on its body alone, and its head and tail are even more terrifying.
Damn, no wonder it can knock me half to death, such a big catfish, I'm afraid it's all become sperm.
The big fish is amazing, but what makes me even creepier is the hand that grabbed my ankle!
But before I could turn around to see what was holding me, the catfish had already swam in front of the third child of the Xi family, opening its big mouth, as if it wanted to swallow him in one bite.
He had barely held his breath again, and at this time, through the red fluorescence of the corpse rope around his neck, he saw that his whole face had become distorted with horror, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to shout for help, but he was choked by the river water that he poured into it.
Although I only have disgust for the third child of the Xi family, it can be seen that this situation makes my heart angry.
It is impossible for that catfish to swallow an adult alive, but judging by his reaction, it is clear that he has been frightened to the point of losing his normality.
If you go on like this, if you don't get eaten by catfish, you will drown.
