Chapter 17: Abandonment and Cannibalism
The gangsters and Anthony who suddenly fell into the water startled everyone, thinking that they were attacked by the monsters in the lake, especially the gangsters struggling violently, stirring the lake water with a loud noise, coupled with a terrible shout, so that the already nervous guys were like cats who had been stepped on by the tail in an instant, the hairs on their bodies exploded, and in less than a breath, the muzzles of the guns were all pointed at Arthur's raft.
Anthony was also startled when he saw his companion like this, and he didn't want to save him at all, feeling the coolness brought by the lake water penetrating the protective suit, his first reaction was to climb on the raft and leave the dangerous lake.
"Quiet, he just can't swim, and if you slow down, the raft will capsize." Arthur roared, and Anthony's movements were so violent that the raft shook violently.
No one cared whether they would overturn, and when they heard that they had not been attacked, they were relieved at first, and then began to row vigorously to reach the other shore as quickly as possible.
"Come on, we can do it." Miranda roared, cheering up, and the women on the raft cheered when she saw her own raft surpass Arthur's, and the rowers worked harder, as if they were much safer than they were.
"Save ...... I. "The thugs are still struggling, and they have been filled with several waters, and the floating green algae has swallowed a lot.
Arthur was ashen, and scolded him secretly, he really wanted to abandon this bastard, and the rest of the bastard went to pull his companion, but he didn't stabilize his body, coupled with the brute force that burst out when the drowning man was trying to survive, he was immediately pulled down, fortunately, this one can swim, but his good luck has also come to an end.
The drowning thug grabbed his hand, and instead of letting go because he had also fallen into the lake, it was like a life-saving straw, and immediately fluttered, wrapped around him, and hugged his calf.
The thug knew how difficult it was to save the drowning man, and he almost put himself in it, and he tried his best to control his body and get help, but he heard a cry that made him fall into an ice cave.
"Boating." Arthur lowered his rifle, picked up the oars, and began paddling hard.
"What?" Anthony, who stretched out his hand to pull the gangsters, suddenly shook his body and looked at Arthur in disbelief, he was just a small person, he would first think of running away when he was in danger, and then he would also think of saving people when he was safe, but Arthur would only think about himself through and through.
"Boating, do you want to die here? I don't want to stay longer. Arthur's face was full of anger, he originally wanted to find two allies, but he didn't expect them to be so weak, so it would be better to die, "Even if they get on the boat, they can't row when their physical strength is exhausted, do they bring two more burdens?" ”
Defoe and the high school students finally got the hang of it, and the raft got faster.
Seeing them, listening to Arthur's persuasion, Anthony subconsciously stretched out his hand and retracted it, avoiding the outstretched hand of the rescuer, and then he saw the other party's eyes full of surprise, and then turned into despair and panic.
"I'm going to live, poof." The rescuer spat out a mouthful of water, watched Arthur's raft go away, the expression on his face finally fixed to anger, and after being dragged into the lake by the drowning thugs again, he watched Defoe's raft gradually get closer, knowing that it was his only chance to survive, and then took a deep breath and dived without hesitation.
"What will he do?" This thought instantly poured into everyone's hearts, not only rowing but also being in charge of guarding, and after seeing Arthur abandon them, they had been watching the two of them.
The newcomers all thought that the rescuers would get rid of their companions, and then swam to the other side, a distance of more than one hundred and fifty meters, to be honest, it was not long, but what he did was unexpected.
When I looked at the surface of the lake, a cloud of red blood was glowing, and after it was slowly diluted, the bloody gas mixed with the fishy gas in the water emitted and floated on the surface of the lake.
"He killed him!" Seeing this scene, the high school students who were rowing by on a raft not far from the side screamed.
Except for the newcomers who were stunned for a moment, the conquerors were all indifferent, and some admired the decisiveness of saving people and gangsters, if they wanted to get rid of a drowning man who was entangled in themselves, it would be a waste of strength, it would be better to stab him to death, as for the situation that he could be attacked at any time in the lake, with him for more than a hundred meters, a fool would not do it.
The lake was unusually calm, and everyone was looking for the figure of the thug to save people, and he suddenly burst out of the Difu raft, and before they could react, he had already turned over the raft with both arms. Seeing Joshua, who was drenched all over, climb up, Defoe dropped the oar and was about to get the gun, but was preempted by the other party. "Slip quickly, I'll kill anyone who is lazy." Joshua's face was hideous, the corners of his mouth trembled, he couldn't believe what he had just done, it was a friend he had been friends with for six years, and the thought of stabbing him in the heart with a dagger, Joshua's expression condensed with deep regret.
"It's all Arthur's bastard, he killed Edward, and those guys who don't save him, they deserve to die." Joshua muttered in fragments that this was the only way to get a little sense of guilt in his heart.
The sudden change finally came to an end, the lake seemed to be quiet, Tang Zheng's rubber boat was still twenty meters away from landing, because it was S-shaped, a little slower, David's raft ranked second, and there were thirty-five meters, Miranda's raft just reached the center of the lake a little more, ten meters in front was Malfoy, more than ten meters behind Arthur, only Defoe was the slowest and rowed forty meters.
"Uncle, there seems to be something in the lake." Lu Fan's sudden burst of words startled several women, and they hurriedly looked towards the lake.
"Where?" Nicole didn't see it.
"Cheer up, all armed with guns, Lu Fan won't lie." Tang Zheng's heart jumped, Xiao Lori has been staring at the lake since she got on the boat, and the kayak has a wide range, she may indeed be the first to discover the danger.
"Do you want to remind them?" Nicole looked at the sweaty newcomers who were paddling with their shoulders thrown and said uneasily, "We're not going to be attacked first, are we?" ”
"At this speed, it should be fine." Tang Zheng was also not sure, the only thing he could do was to land as soon as possible, and originally wanted to take a few more S routes, so that the things under the lake could not judge the target accurately, and delay the time to be attacked, and then gave up, because he found that this would be a waste of time, and besides, the thing might also go to the raft.
"Then don't slow down and rush straight to shore." Tang Zheng gritted his teeth and beckoned to Lu Fan, asking her to get closer, and when she got on the boat, Lu Fan's position was arranged next to him, and if they encountered danger, they would give up on others and run away by themselves.
Nicole and the others were all nervous, staring at the lake, completely unaware that Tang Zheng had already crossed several ways to deal with it in his mind, and even communicated with Xiao Lori with eye contact.
"Maybe a reminder will make them nervous and fall into the water, and besides, the current raft speed is almost the limit." Lu Fan's worries are not unreasonable, in order to increase the speed, except for the two people on the raft who are responsible for guarding, the others are rowing, but because it is the first time to do it, the cooperation is not tacit, this thing is not that the more people, the faster the boat will row.
"There's a huge dark shadow in the lake." Lu Fan didn't shout, but Rowling on the Mars boat roared, which suddenly made the people on the five rafts shiver, and involuntarily accelerated the swing of their arms, and the raft really rose and fell violently as little Lori said, and even began to spin.
"Steady, it's almost there." The most prestigious people are trying to stabilize everyone's emotions, I have to say that Miranda and they are very calm, if they are all panicked at this time, it will be all over.
"Prepare for impact and fall, and land on the shore!" Tang Zheng didn't have time to care about them, and after adjusting the direction for the last time, the rubber boat rushed diagonally onto the shore of the lake.
"Won't you slow down?" Jack was stunned, and as soon as he finished shouting, the distance of six meters also came to an end, and the bow of the rubber boat hit the shore, and immediately somersaulted due to inertia, and six people were also thrown into the air.
At the moment before the kayak hit the shore, Tang Zheng had already turned off the fire, and then hugged Xiao Fanfan with his left hand, at this time the kayak was already in the air, he stepped on the board with both feet, and ran out, and when he passed by Nicole, who had not yet reacted and lost her balance, he grabbed her chest and pulled it to his side.
Julia only had time to hug her daughter, and Jack was completely out of balance and didn't do anything to protect herself.
Bang bang bang, the shore suddenly turned on their backs, Tang Zheng hugged the two women with a big smile and made them a cushion pad, the blonde mother and daughter were the most unlucky, they were pressed by the kayak, but that thing didn't weigh much, and it couldn't hit anyone.
"Are you alright?" Standing more than ten meters away, Brant hesitated for a moment and ran over, he originally planned to watch coldly, without any intention of helping, but he was even more afraid of being attacked alone, otherwise he would not dare to leave the shore, it stands to reason that he was cannon fodder, he should be angry.
"Thank you." Jack is a single cell, and he is still thanking them, but he didn't notice that Brant was just standing aside, not helping them.
"Hmph, get out of here." Lu Fan got up from the ground, furious, "Disgusting guy." ”
"How can you say such a thing?" Jack, this guy is making stupid noises again, defending Brandt.
"Why didn't he pick up the kayak, Julia mother and daughter were still being crushed." Lu Fan took out the revolver and saw through Brandt's sinister intentions, "You don't need to be pretending to be merciful, don't think that you can be safe if you stand by our side, get out of my way." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, I just didn't see it." Brandt put on a puzzled and anxious face, and went to move the rubber boat, next to him was the blonde mother and daughter, "Hmph, you asked me to do it, why don't blame me." ”
"Wait." Tang Zheng immediately pounced out, and he saw the unconcealed evil smile on the corner of this guy's mouth.
"Oh!" Brant was still thinking about how to throw the kayak down openly and seriously injure the blonde mother and daughter, so Tang Zheng sent an excuse, so he didn't hesitate, let go of his hand, and pretended not to see it, moved a step, and stepped on Demi's calf.
