Hunter of the Forbidden Region

Chapter 19: The Dragon King appears

Views:

Right under the eyes of Lin Shuo, Anne, and Xiao Ba, the black shadow in the river was swimming slowly, gradually approaching the long-abandoned chain bridge.

It is said to be swimming, but its body movements are different from those of water snakes swimming in the water.

When a water snake swims in the water, its body will keep curling, and in order to obtain enough thrust in the water, the curling range is much larger than when crawling on the shore.

But this huge black shadow at the bottom of the water is almost straight, and the left and right curls of its body are extremely small.

Anne, as a Ph.D. in biology from Harvard University in the United States, quickly discovered this abnormality.

"It's not swimming, but crawling at the bottom of the river!" Anne didn't dare to disturb Lin Shuo at this time, but just said silently in her heart.

At the same time, she immediately thought of the reason.

This big river with a width of more than fifty meters is still too narrow for this black shadow to toss around. If he really swam, his body would hit both sides of the bank.

Therefore, it can only crawl on the bottom of the water.

Thinking of this, goosebumps all over Anne's body stood up, and she finally had a clearer understanding of the "big guy" in Lin Shuo's mouth.

Women often have a natural fear of snakes, and Anne is no exception.

She panicked for a while, she didn't dare to continue staring at the river, but turned her head to look at Lin Shuo.

Compared with the black shadow on the river, this man looked much more pleasing to the eye.

The glasses he was wearing before were obviously a disguise. After leaving Guangxi, I never saw him wearing it again.

However, wearing glasses for many years left two pale marks on the bridge of his nose.

This man's skin is actually very fair, and he looks handsome, but when he speaks, he is not very flattering.

Looking at the man's profile, the fear in Anne's heart finally calmed down.

Lin Shuo didn't care about Anne's gaze. All his attention was on the river.

He is a hunter, and the most important thing for a hunter is not to mistake his prey.

The black shadow remained at the bottom of the water and did not come up to take a breath.

So there is no smell of it in the air around here.

Its color and pattern are too far apart, and it is under the water, so it can't be seen clearly.

But this size, like!

However, Lin Shuo was not in a hurry, he wanted to confirm the last characteristic.

The tail of this black shadow, viewed from this angle, was just blocked by a hill by the river.

And at this moment, the group of villagers at the foot of the mountain had already been blowing all the way, less than a hundred meters away from the river.

"They shouldn't be able to see that black shadow." Anne said softly at this time, "The light transmittance of water is related to the angle. We are at a high place, and the angle of view is almost perpendicular to the river, so we can vaguely see this black shadow. But The villagers are by the river, and there is interference from sunlight reflection, so they cannot see the shadows."

"Brother Shuo, let's do it." Xiao Ba reminded, "If you drag on, this group of people will be finished."

"No hurry." Lin Shuo stared at the movement of the black shadow on the river, "Xiao Ba, check something for me."

"Its tail, right?" Xiao Ba flapped his wings and flew up, "I'll go and have a look."

Just as Xiao Ba was flying into the air, there was a burst of waves on the surface of the river, and the black shadow at the bottom of the river suddenly moved!

That black shadow, in Lin Shuo and Anne's line of sight, the front half became more and more clear!

A touch of blue-gray, separated from the river water at an extremely fast speed!

Finally, its head sticks out of the water!

The entire body of the previous freshwater king fish might not be as big as the head sticking out of the river!

The monster's head poked out on the river, as if taking a look at the movement by the river, and then quickly retracted to the water.

With this probing and shrinking, the river water brought up hits the shore, and the splashes aroused drenched the whole body of the villagers who were tens of meters away from the shore.

"Dragon Lord!!!"

"The Dragon Lord has manifested His Holiness!"

"Lord Dragon thinks highly of us!"

There were bursts of crying and shouting, and Anne saw that the group of villagers knelt down.

And the huge black shadow on the surface of the river, after withdrawing its head back to the water surface, began to crawl extremely fast on the bottom of the water.

It's like a train passing through a tunnel. Once this big guy starts exerting force, the whole river will be stirred up by it, and the surface of the river will boil like a huge wave.

As the body continued to move forward, its tail finally circled the mountain.

According to Anne's preliminary calculation, this black shadow is more than 300 meters long!

If it is called a snake, then all other snakes in the world are small earthworms.

This giant snake-like monster just passed through the water where the chain bridge was located, turned around the opposite mountain, and slowly disappeared from Anne's sight.

What she saw in front of her eyes brought a huge shock to Anne, and she couldn't recover for a long time.

When she finally remembered and turned her head to look at Lin Shuo beside her, she found that the legendary hunter in the hunting gate had put away his master and was standing on the top of the mountain thinking.

"Mr. Lin, why didn't you make a move?" Anne asked.

"Brother Shuo, I can see the tail clearly, it's not it." Xiao Bafei returned to Lin Shuo's shoulder with regret in his tone.

"It's not it?" Anne was very surprised and asked, "How could it be?"

"In fact, I suspected it wasn't it for a long time." Lin Shuo shook his head, "The beast in Kunlun Mountain has been monitored by the hunting gate for thousands of years, and there is no record of leaving Kunlun Mountain.

Even if it escaped by feigning death six years ago, it only had these six years. According to the old man in the village, when he was a child, that is, fifty years ago, he had already seen this black water dragon king in the local area.

Maybe his statement is not credible, but the Dragon King Sacrifice, a tradition that has been agreed upon by the whole village, cannot be formed in just six years, and such things cannot be performed.

Therefore, this black water dragon king should be a strange local creature, not the beast from Kunlun Mountain. "

After Lin Shuo finished speaking, he looked at Anne: "Of course, you International Biological Research Society may not care about this. Whether it is the beast on Kunlun Mountain or this black water dragon king, you should be very interested. Which one is not caught?"

"Mr. Lin, don't get me wrong." Anne waved her hand. This time, her momentum did not weaken, but she said seriously, "We, the International Biological Research Association, are indeed very concerned about the strange creatures in the world, but our goal this time , is to capture the strange creature that caused the disappearance of 182 people, this point is very clear.

We don't care whether the Black Water Dragon King is that strange creature on Kunlun Mountain, as long as we know that it is the culprit of this incident, that's enough.

Mr. Lin, please don't forget that we are the employer, and you have already accepted the deal. "

What Anne said was well-founded, and her attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, which was very different from the previous low-browed and compliant attitude.

This made Lin Shuokao glance at her, but he quickly shook his head again: "I went to the scene to confirm. That matter was not done by the Black Water Dragon King."

"Do you have any evidence?" Anne asked.

"You are a member of the family, so you should know that our Lin family has a sense of smell far beyond ordinary people." Lin Shuo said, "I have smelled the smell of the scene..."

Just halfway through speaking, Lin Shuo was slightly taken aback, quickly twitched his nostrils a few times, and said softly, "That's not right."

"What's wrong?"

Lin Shuo felt the smell in his nasal cavity, tasted it carefully, and frowned slightly: "It's hurt."

"You mean, the Blackwater Dragon King is injured?"

"En." Lin Shuo nodded, "I actually smelled the smell of this black water dragon king when I went to the mountain for three days. It came out of the water nearby and observed us all day and night. I know it It is not the goal of this mission, so there is no extra problem, let you detour to avoid it.

But this time, the smell it smelled when it came out of the water was a little different from before. The smell of blood in its breath was very strong, and it should have been hurt quite badly. "

Speaking of this, Lin Shuo's eyes lit up, and he nodded slowly, "So, the envoy of the Dragon King wanted me to know that the Black Water Dragon King was injured."

"This black water dragon king is not only powerful, but also highly respected locally." Anne asked, "What can hurt it?"

"What do you think?" Lin Shuo glanced at Anne and asked calmly.

Anne quickly realized that she didn't answer, but smiled and said, "Then, will this deal continue?"

"certainly."
