It was already evening, the sky was covered with dark clouds, the light rain was still falling, after getting out of the car, Zhou Fengchen carried the monk Yuanzhi on his back, followed by Su Xiaoxiao and Xiazi, walked forward in knee-deep muddy water, turned a few road bends, and there was an "ocean" in front of him, and he couldn't see anything.

The calves are cold, the shoes are filled with mud and sand, and there is no "land" in sight, which is very uncomfortable.

Xiazi and Su Xiaoxiao were a little unbearable, muttering and complaining.

Zhou Fengchen felt quite embarrassed, turned around and smiled: "I just calculated that I could meet a high place in front of me, and then let's go to a place where there are people and rent a car to go to Linjiang, it's better than waiting for four or five days, who knows that the deeper the water becomes?"

Su Xiaoxiao pouted, "That's the wrong way you led, I just said to go from the left, you have to go from the right, this is good, I don't know where to go, it's getting dark, and there is not even a figure nearby." ”

Kasumi also said pitifully: "The key is that we can't walk anymore, do we stay in the water at night?"

Zhou Fengchen scratched his head, he was a well-known road idiot, why did he want to lead the way, and said: "Let's take a look, let's take a look, don't worry!"

After walking forward for another half an hour, the sky gradually darkened, and several people were about to despair, when a boat suddenly appeared in front, that is, the kind of iron fishing boat, which looked quite shabby, and there were two people sitting on the deck, one driving the boat, and the other sitting dry.

Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hand and shouted, "Hey! Swing the boat, here! ”

When the people on the boat heard this, they drove the boat over, and it was a middle-aged man with a long beard who said with a philistine face: "Two hundred yuan a person!"

Kasumiko's eyes widened, "So expensive! Why don't you grab it? ”

The man said solemnly: "You get what you pay for, just forget if you don't do it." Talking about leaving.

Zhou Fengchen hurriedly took out six hundred yuan and said, "Six hundred is six hundred!" Send us to the nearest place! ”

"Great!" The man took the money and smiled.

Zhou Fengchen and the three of them climbed onto the boat, drilled into the cabin, and after arranging the Yuanzhi monk, they all sat down with relief.

Su Xiaoxiao threw the leather bag aside, twisted her wet trouser legs, and said, "Grandma will never wade into the water again in her life, look at my white and tender calves, they are all soaked in water."

Kasumi smiled and said, "Sister, it's okay to be beautiful, and others can't see your calves while wearing pants."

"That's right!" Zhou Fengchen took off his wet coat and covered it with Monk Yuanzhi, and then took off his shoes and poured water.

Su Xiaoxiao blinked and was happy, "Brother Zhou, do you also praise me for being beautiful?" ”

Zhou Fengchen didn't raise his head, "How can I be in such a mood, talking and playing." ”

"Huh." Su Xiaoxiao's face fell.

At this time, the man who drove the boat suddenly entered the cabin, took out a pot of hot fish soup from a sealed pot next to him, and said to Zhou Fengchen and the others: "Wading in the water is damp, be careful to leave the root of the disease, drink a bowl of hot fish soup to warm up."

Kasumi was puzzled and said, "You're so good?" How much is a bowl? ”

The man gave a slap and grinned, revealing a mouthful of big teeth, "Fifty! ”

"Huh? You ......" Kasumiko's face turned red.

Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand and took out one hundred and fifty yuan, "Forget it, I'll please!" ”

"Great!" The man took the money, put down the fish soup and ran off to the boat again.

Zhou Fengchen suddenly hesitated at this time, he had been wading in the water for a long time just now, drenched in rain all the way, and his head was dizzy and he didn't pay attention, how could he feel that something was wrong with the man driving the boat at this time? The body is too damp and has no popularity, is it because of the wind and rain outside? Looking at the other person sitting on the deck, under the dim sky, I saw that the person seemed to be a half-grown child, with his back to the cabin, looking at the water, and he did not wear a raincoat, facing the wind and rain dryly, and his body was more dead.

Just as he was about to open the Tianyan to take a look, Su Xiaoxiao and Xiazi next to him found three porcelain bowls out of nowhere, and they had already drunk the fish soup, so they came over to pull him by the way, "Come, you taste it, this fish soup is delicious, so fresh." ”

Zhou Fengchen looked at the two people outside the cabin again, and when he saw that there was no abnormal behavior, he put down his doubts, laughed, took a bowl and drank a few spoonfuls of fish soup, hmm! Don't say it, it tastes great!

The three of them just took a spoonful of you and a spoonful of me, and quickly drank a jar of fish soup, and their bodies were all hot when they were done.

At this moment, the half-grown child outside suddenly got up and walked to the cabin, and when he arrived at the door, he did not speak or come in, and looked at the three of them quietly.

Zhou Fengchen and the others also looked at him, only to see that this kid was very delicate, and his face was a little too pale, but why are you looking at us like this?

In the midst of his doubts, the half-grown child grinned, his mouth grinning bigger and bigger, until he reached his cheeks, and spit out a long black tongue from his mouth, which dragged it all the way to the soles of his feet, and his eyes widened and widened, and the whole thing fell off.

This is not something that humans can do! Kasumiko screamed in fright.

Zhou Fengchen and Su Xiaoxiao both lowered their faces and were about to make a move, when the half-grown child "quack" turned around and ran away with a strange smile, and got into the water with a "poof".

Zhou Fengchen pulled out the Baipi knife and arrived on the deck almost instantly, almost hitting him.

When I looked up again, where was the shadow of the half-grown child on the dark water?

"What do you mean?" Zhou Fengchen said in a gloomy voice, turned around and raised his knife to aim at the man who was driving the boat in the glass house.

Who knew that the man who drove the boat stared at the place where the half-grown child jumped into the water in a daze, his face was distorted, and he snorted, "Where is the monster!" It's scared to death! Ahh

Su Xiaoxiao also came out of the cabin and said to the man who drove the boat: "Don't call it, what an adult, don't you know him?"

The man who drove the boat shook his head and cried with a sad face, "I don't know!" I ran into it halfway, and I took it with me when I looked pitiful, and I didn't ask him for money! ”

Zhou Fengchen glanced at him deeply, "Okay, how long will it take to stay on land?" ”

"It's coming! Soon! The man pointed to the right, "This is on the Tuojiang River, after crossing the river, the ground in front is high, and there is a town." ”

Zhou Fengchen nodded and took Su Xiaoxiao back to the cabin.

Su Xiaoxiao sat down and whispered: "In case of a major drought or flood, there will always be some strange things that take the opportunity to come out and wander around, what kind of water monster is the child Bacheng just now!"

Zhou Fengchen withdrew the knife and said, "It doesn't matter what he is, it's important to hurry!"

The steamer was meeting again, and the outline of the woods was faintly visible in front of it, and the sky was completely dark.

Kasumi fumbled and took out a small flashlight from her travel bag and turned it on, shining around, almost throwing it out coldly, and then screamed "ah".

I saw a miserable white face appear in the aft window of the cabin illuminated by the flashlight, it was the half-grown child who had just left, he quietly returned to the boat, saw the three of them look, grinned again, spit out his long tongue, stared off his eyes, and laughed strangely, "It's me again!" Are you afraid? Hahaha......"

"Your mother, that's interesting!" Zhou Fengchen scolded, took out a hundred knives and went outside the cabin in a flash.

"Poof!" The half-grown child jumped into the water one step faster.
