Chapter Ninety-Nine: Forward

Is this seemingly random excesses that important? I frowned, and saw a huge black back on the surface of the rolling water, no doubt a big one, and it looked like a giant fish.

Johnny's fiery stubbornness, we all have experienced, I can't try to convince him, or stop what I'm doing, I can only step up, read the sacrifice, continue to sprinkle paper money, and complete this inexplicable excess as soon as possible.

No matter what kind of environment I was in, I still completed this excesses with a sincere mood, and at this time, Johnny had been dragged into the water for a distance of about one meter, and the rapid water flooded to his waist, and I don't know if it was the power of the water or the fish that made him a little staggered.

But Johnny's face did not have the slightest fear, but his eyes widened angrily, and he scolded in Hindi, and I don't know what he was scolding! In short, it was a feeling of being in tune with the creatures in the water.

This kind of Johnny reminds me of the classic masterpiece "The Old Man and the Sea", and I don't know if the old man who finally caught the big fish is Johnny's appearance, but at the same time, I can't cry or laugh, I don't know what he is stubborn about?

Although I thought so, I almost rushed at Johnny, shouting as I ran: "Uncle Johnny, throw away the fishing rod and be dragged into the water, you are not its opponent." ”

"Nope! I don't! Have you ever seen a gunman drop his gun and a fisherman throws off a boat? I'm going to get it up! Johnny said stubbornly, and was dragged into the water a little further as he spoke.

It would be dangerous to go on like this, and I had already run to the water's edge, so I could only follow the water without hesitation, it was obviously a hot summer, but as soon as the water at the entrance touched my skin, the biting coldness gave me goosebumps.

The water of the Gathering Shade Land!

The thought popped into my head, but the whole person kept walking up to Johnny's side, helping him hold the rod and confront the big fish.

Our efforts proved to be in vain, and although we had no small strength, we had no idea of the big fish's opponent, and at the critical moment when I was about to be dragged into the river, I took advantage of Johnny's inattention, pulled the rod in his hand, and threw him into the water, and then forcibly dragged him ashore despite Johnny's curses.

But the process was not all smooth sailing, the giant fish tried to take revenge on us after asking for restraints, and in the process of dragging Johnny back, I clearly saw it make a splash, and a turn rushed towards us, the black back was so conspicuous, but fortunately it was a step late, I dragged Johnny smoothly to the shore, and pressed it to the river beach.

'Wow' the sound of water slapping on the shore, the last sprint of the big fish let me see its head, and it was a catfish again, a huge catfish, although it was only a glimpse, but I saw that the purple stripes on the head of this catfish were so clear, the whole eye socket was red, the mouth was open, the sharp teeth, and it was extremely terrifying.

"See? Uncle Johnny, this fish is more mutated than anything we've seen along the way, you don't have to get it ashore to see this, do you? It's pretty much pretty sure that's it, right? You know that since we entered this stretch of river, we haven't seen any big fish, not a single one. I spoke to Johnny in a cautious tone as I tentatively let Johnny go.

After I let go, Johnny stood up at once, cursed in Hindi, and then pushed me away, and walked towards the boat very irritablely, I hurriedly followed, and shouted loudly behind Johnny: "Uncle Johnny, don't you realize that after you arrived here, your whole person became unreasonable and unapproachable?" No matter what happens, you have to remember that we are partners now, and you can't be like that. ”

Johnny, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped, his back stiffened for a second, then he turned around sharply, and I saw an angry face, and at that moment, I thought Johnny was going to beat me.

I secretly thought in my heart, he is a friend of my ancestor, my elder, even if he is unreasonable and irritable at this time, even if he does it, I can't fight back, I can only bear it, and then try to persuade him.

'Whew', and unexpectedly, Johnny didn't punch me, but looked at me with that angry expression for a few seconds, then exhaled a long breath, and then his expression became a little calmer, and finally he opened his mouth and said to me, "I'm sorry." ”

"It's okay." I laughed, then walked over and grabbed Uncle Johnny and said, "I'm not going to bother with you." ”

"Do you still dare to deal with me? Or should I have really beaten you up just now? Johnny looked furious again.

I quickly restrained my playful expression and said seriously, "Just kidding!" Uncle Johnny, I and we can sense your irritability, but we never thought to deal with you, not even the slightest bit of anger. We're all trying to understand you, even though we don't know what's going on? ”

Johnny looked at me with a slightly moved gaze, then he lowered his head and said as he walked, "I just wanted to get that fish up and see what happened to make sure it was here?" Chengyi, there will always be one or two things that happen in a person's life, which will impress you in your life, I just came here and remembered so many past events that they drove my emotions and imaged my ability to think. Li once said that it is terrible to lose my calm, but I am not Lee, I don't have his state of mind, and some things will still make me indifferent, otherwise I will not stay in the slum all year round, trying to get close to something, and forget my sadness. ”

"Uncle Johnny, what the hell is going on? Makes you so sad? When Johnny said these words, I could feel Johnny's sadness and couldn't help but ask.

By this time, we were back on the boat, Johnny pulled up the engine, and with the roar of the engine, he said to me loudly, "You'll know after all, but now I'm not in the mood to tell." ”

The boat was quickly speeding on the surface of the water again, looking at the entrance that was gradually moving away from sight, and I felt a strong sense of uneasiness in my heart, and once again a sense of crisis permeated me, which is a must after every time I enter a dangerous place, but it only reminds me of danger, and does not tell me what will happen. I just hope that no matter what happens, no matter how badly injured each of us, we will come out alive.

Finally, we returned to the Penglai, lost the fishing rod, wet clothes, this appearance made everyone very confused, we just went to investigate, why did we make such a mess?

Johnny was still silent, reverted to his faint sense of impatience, and went to change his clothes.

I was left with a smile in the face of everyone's puzzled gazes, and said, "We met a big guy, and instead of catching it, it almost dragged us both down!" It's definitely not a good place to fish, but a good place for fishermen. ”

I tried to relieve this tension in a relaxed way, but it didn't work at all, and Cheng Yuan cautiously asked me: "Brother Cheng Yi, is it there?" Where is the end of our voyage? ”

I nodded, then looked at Singh standing in the corner of the deck with an apologetic look, and said, "I'm sorry, that devil's land is indeed our end." ”

As soon as my words fell, I saw Singh looking at the sky and exhaling, whether it was a relaxation or a heaviness.

Brother Chengxin was still a little nervous at first, and after seeing me nod, he lazily leaned back on his recliner again, peeled a mango, and said, "Devil's Land, Singh has already told us." It seems that our luck has not been very good? ”

At this time, on the river, several cargo ships appeared in the distance, which should be a cargo ship returning to the main stream from that side, Singh glanced at it, and suddenly said: "I really envy them, the way back." ”

But Johnny had already changed into clean clothes at this time, walked out, looked at Singh, and said calmly: "Don't say that we are depressed, we will also go back, but now, we have to drive the boat there" Johnny stretched out his hand and pointed to the devil's land.

When everyone heard this, they were silent for a second, and then dispersed.

Singh quickly ran to the cab, and the others began to organize their things, such as magic weapons, and spearguns, and the lessons along the way made us buy a lot of spearguns in a certain place, sophisticated, large spearguns, which made us feel more at ease than magic weapons.

For the first time, the Penglai used high speed, and for the first time, its engine let out such a powerful roar, discharging wave after wave, but it carried us towards the most dangerous place.

I stood at the front of the deck, the wind ruffled my hair, Johnny stood beside me, a little hesitant, but firmly said to me: "Chengyi, there should be no peace in there, there are ghosts, as soon as you enter at that time, you can make a move." ”

At this point, Johnny's eyes showed a hint of pain again.

Actually, I'm very strange, as a Taoist priest, isn't it normal to see ghosts shooting? Whether I want to suppress them, drive them out, or overdo them, I can't let them wander the world.

What's more, Singh's story convinced me that there were powerful ghosts in there! Plus that mysterious existence is also staying over there, that ghost may hinder us, so I have to take action if it makes sense?

But what is Johnny's point of emphasis?

The speed of the Penglai was very fast, and after a while, it had already bypassed the river beach, and the mysterious entrance finally appeared in my eyes again.
