Hidden God

Chapter 4: Ghost-faced Mackerel

When I looked at the two of them, Che Chi and Yang Honghao also raised their heads and looked at my face.

I don't know how far apart we are, but I feel like we are very close and staring at each other.

The moment Che Chi and I's eyes met across the water, the other person's eyelids seemed to be pushed into his eye sockets, and he disappeared without a trace in an instant. Two round eyes protruded from his eye sockets, like two gray and dull dead fish eyes. Apart from being indifferent, there was no trace of life in them.

After Che Chi and I looked at each other for a second, he suddenly jumped off the city wall, slowly fell to the bluestone ground beside the city, and walked towards the city gate step by step.

Isn't that road into the city the same bluestone road that extended from the lake to the hotel last night

I subconsciously took two steps back—it was the first time in my life that I felt scared.

Last night I felt that the oncoming avenue was inviting us to enter the ancient city. This morning, two people actually walked in.

Before I could stand still, I heard Dong Xiaowei cry in a cry: "Wang Huan, what should we do? Are Che Chi, Yang Honghao and the others... "

I suppressed the fear in my heart, turned around and shouted to the tour guide: "Go back quickly, let's go ashore first!"

The tour guide had been stunned for a long time, and it wasn’t until I called her that she finally came to her senses: “That’s right... Let’s start the boat quickly and go back to the hotel.”

It wasn't until the boat started sailing that the students on the boat became a little quieter. Everyone wanted to squeeze into the cabin, and no one wanted to take another look at the lake. But the space in the cabin was so big that there was no room for more than ten of us. I had no choice but to send all the girls into the cabin and guard the outside with a few boys.

My mind was racing with thoughts about what had just happened. The tourist brochure writes about the seven mysteries of "Fuxian Lake". The first is the ancient city at the bottom of the lake, and the second is the blue light at the bottom of the lake.

But the manual states that there is a blue light rising from the bottom of the lake, but it does not say that the shadow of the ancient city can emerge from the water!

According to the manual, the depth of the ancient city is at least one hundred meters under the water, but I could clearly see the figures on the top of the city. It was impossible for me to see that far, and it was even less possible for my classmates. What the hell is going on? Is it haunted in broad daylight

When I was thinking wildly, I suddenly heard the sound of water waves rushing past us. The sound sounded like a boat clinging to our side and quickly passing our bow.

When I looked sideways into the water, I saw a silver-gray shadow quickly turning half a circle in the water and approaching our boat again. When I first looked at it, I thought it was a fishing boat upside down in the water, with only the herringbone bottom exposed.

When the shadow got close to the yacht, I took a breath—it was a fish.

A surprisingly large fish.

Its back above the water alone is more than one meter. If it jumped completely out of the water, it might be one section longer than our boat.

When I was so surprised that I couldn't speak, someone already exclaimed: "Fish... in the water..."

Before the man could stop shouting, a white wave shot up into the sky from the side of the ship. A big fish covered with silver scales leaped out of the rolling waves, and two fins that looked like human hands instantly He grabbed the guardrail of the ship's side and pushed down hard. The entire yacht tilted outward under the sudden pressure.

The moment I reached out and grabbed the handrail on the side of the cabin to steady my body, several classmates fell towards the side of the boat together. I stretched out my hand to pull him, but was a step too late. I watched Li Ming beside me slide towards the big fish.

Li Ming, who was so frightened that he was trying to grab my outstretched hand with fear in his eyes, the big fish that was already one meter taller than the side of the boat leaned down at this moment.

My sight was instantly filled with a huge human face.

That's right, there is a human face on the big fish's head, a human face that looks like a silver mask with sharp edges and floating dark light. Except for the two round holes in the nose, the entire face has ferocious features like a murderous demon, especially the two fangs exposed at the mouth, which are clearly bloodthirsty and ferocious.

In an instant, the huge fanged mouth of the ghost-faced fish covered Li Ming's head and swallowed half of Li Ming's body in one gulp. The sharp fangs instantly cut into Li Ming's chest. Before the harsh sound of sharp teeth digging into human bones disappeared, the Ghost Face Fish suddenly raised its body. Li Ming, who was bitten by him, followed the swing of the fish's body and was thrown upward into the air with his feet. One person and one fish were entangled in one place and fell into the water at the same time.

As soon as the splash of water on the lake crossed the side of the boat, the fish's tail lifted up from the bottom of the water and splashed the water towards the boat again.

When the shadow caused by the fish's tail flashed across my eyes, I had not yet recovered from the shock. It wasn't until the lake water splashed down on my head that I suddenly shuddered, took a few steps to the side of the boat and looked into the water. Apart from the bloody waves in the lake, where is the shadow of the ghost-faced fish

Several classmates who were still on the side of the boat just now were so frightened that they crowded into the cabin like crazy. The girls in the cabin were shouting and became hoarse. The boat couldn't be more chaotic. But I felt that the ghost-faced fish had not left us very far, as if it had been lingering under the boat.

I rushed outside the cockpit in a few steps and patted the glass several times: "Set the boat quickly, hurry up!"

The boss of the ship also had a white face and hair, but fortunately he still knew how to control the yacht: "I'll give you the spear gun. If Jimensame comes again, you can hit him with the spear gun."

Now the only people left standing on the whole boat are me and the boss of the boat. He has to sail the boat, and I can't do it without working hard.

As soon as I took the speargun from his hand, there was a loud earthquake from the bottom of the boat, and the yacht seemed to be lifted up from the bottom by a giant hand. When the entire ship tilted uncontrollably to the right, several students who were scrambling to get into the cabin slid to the side of the ship.

Some people were thrown off the boat before they could stand still. The classmate who flipped over with his back to the yacht swung his hands around and finally grabbed the guardrail: "Help..."

I rushed to the side of the boat in a few steps, grabbed one of his hands, and pointed the speargun into the water with the other hand: "Someone come over and help me, hurry up!"

I didn't dare to let go, but I also didn't dare to throw away the spear gun easily and try my best to save people. God knows when that ghost-faced fish will flip out of the water. I don’t have a speargun in my hand, so I might be dragged into the water by it.

But I didn't see anyone coming even after shouting twice, so I couldn't help but cursed: "What the hell are you doing? Come here quickly!"

When someone finally came forward, a blood-stained ghost face appeared in the water. The ghost's face submerged under the water became ferocious in just an instant. This time, the ghost-faced fish raised its head out of the water from bottom to top, and the ghostly face I saw became more and more clear...

The moment the ghost's face emerged from the water, I tightened my grip on the speargun, but the tip of the spear was blocked by my classmates who were hanging in mid-air and struggling desperately. Now when I start, the person whose head is penetrated by the spear gun iron spear is not the ghost-faced monster fish, but my classmate.

I only hesitated for a moment, and the sound of sharp teeth tearing bones suddenly sounded very close to me. I only saw bloody water spurting out of the fish's mouth and splashing on my face. Although I didn't let go of my classmate's hand, I suddenly felt a lightness in my hand and my whole body fell towards the cabin door.

When I got up from the deck, I only had a piece of my arm in my hand. The man's other hand was still clinging to the guardrail, dripping with blood.

The people who witnessed this scene almost went crazy with fear. In my ears, I could hear nothing except the hoarse screams.

I struggled several times on the deck mixed with blood and lake water before I stood up and slowly approached the side of the ship with the spear gun in hand. At this time, there was only a herringbone line of blood left in the water, speeding into the distance. The Ghost Faced Fish must have dragged the classmate's body back to its nest.

I stood beside the boat with the speargun in hand for more than ten minutes, and then the people in the cabin gradually became quiet. Dong Xiaowei covered his eyes with his hands and said in a trembling voice: "Wang Huan, throw that arm off the boat! I'm afraid..."

I also felt like having two bloody human hands next to me made me shiver inside. But my classmate has been buried in the belly of the fish, and the only thing he has left is these two hands. It would be unkind for me to throw human hands into the water again.

I simply took off my clothes, wrapped my two hands and put them in a bucket: "If you are afraid, don't look at it. Stay in the cabin and don't go anywhere. Where is the tour guide?"

Dong Xiaowei turned pale and shook his head: "No... I didn't see..."

I looked around the boat but couldn't find any trace of the tour guide. The scene just now was so chaotic that no one noticed where the tour guide went. The space on the ship is only so big. Except for the deck and cabin, there is no place to hide people. The tour guide probably fell into the water in the chaos.

I looked at the undulating lake surface and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Boss, how about we..."

The boss of the boat said coldly: "Don't say anything. If you beat me to death, I won't go back. No one can survive if they fall into the water in front of Jimensame. Stop thinking about it! Besides, I am willing to go back with you, and your classmates are willing ?"

I turned around and looked at my classmates who were scared to death, and sighed silently - they didn't dare to save my classmates when they fell into the water, let alone the tour guide who was a complete stranger.

I leaned against the hatch without saying a word, staring at the water until the yacht docked. Dong Xiaowei has been holding my arm tightly since getting off the boat: "Wang Huan, what should we do?"

"Call the police!" Now I can't think of any other way besides calling the police. Four people died in one fell swoop, and the police didn’t give an explanation. How could we explain it to their parents when we went back

Besides, now that the students are so scared, they can only feel a sense of security when they arrive at the police station.

After Dong Xiaowei called the police, we all went to the police station. While I was waiting to take notes, my mind was in a mess. There are many things that I can't understand, but I have to think about them.
