At this moment, it really had reached a critical juncture, and the lives of several people on board were at stake. The fortune teller whispered and complained to Squire Ma, and Squire Ma didn't talk to him, avoiding the ship's oval in the hands of the ship owner, and wanted to take charge of the ship himself.
At this moment, the boat that kept drifting towards Thang Long's halo suddenly stopped. Those who often sail in the river know that it takes a lot of external force to stop the boat in the river. I involuntarily raised my eyes and looked at it. The boat was only six or seven feet away from Shenglong's halo, and it stopped just right. The six or seven feet in the water is much more dangerous than the one on land. If the current is large, it will drift instantly. Move over.
"Why did the boat stop?" The fortune teller was still complaining, feeling that the boat stopped suddenly, and he followed him in a daze.
I retracted my gaze, lowered my body, and looked aside with the probe again. After this glance, an indescribable feeling continued to spread in my heart.
The boat is surrounded by floating corpses, densely packed in a circle, and the boat can suddenly stop in the water at the moment of the moment, and it is all these floating corpses that are supporting it. I don't know how I feel at the moment, but I can still tell that these floating corpses are not ordinary floating corpses.
God fortune and I looked at each other, maybe he also thought of the scene we encountered when we caught the golden carp last year. At that time, the copper-cast frame was dragged by many floating corpses to move on the water.
"No..." The fortune teller shrank his neck, probably because he was afraid of being taken to the hell place again.
Before we could say anything, the boat stuck in the water shook suddenly and began to move slowly. However, as the boat moved, several people noticed that the boat was moving in the direction of the countercurrent, and as a result, it gradually moved away from Thang Long's halo.
Squire Ma is usually quiet, but his expression is very complicated at this time. He certainly doesn't want to miss the Thang Long Halo that appears once in ten years, but the current situation is beyond control. Only by staying away from the Thang Long Halo can his life be saved.
"I... I knocked you to death... a dog with no conscience..." As soon as the boat stabilized, the old man Ma took a sigh of relief. He hated the horse squire to death, picked up the wooden stick beside him, and tried to face the horse again. The squire fell on him.
"Don't don't, old man, calm down." The fortune teller hurried up to stop the old man, and now he managed to temporarily relieve the predicament, and there must be no more trouble: "What is the anger, wait until we escape..."
Old Madam Ma rolled his eyes angrily, but there was no other way, the fortune-teller supported him and watched the boat slowly move up against the current.
The floating corpses around the boat gathered but did not disperse. Soon after, they drifted about twenty feet north with the boat. When I got here, the situation was better, at least I don't have to worry about being swept in by Shenglong's faint. Thang Long Halo
Already almost thirty feet away, the whirlpool and the water waves are not visible at all, but the faint light emitted by the rising dragon's halo can still be seen.
When the situation stabilized, I stared at Squire Ma, lest he would be wicked again. The Ma Squire's city mansion was relatively deep, standing on the boat silently, and did not know what was thinking in his heart.
"Master Ma, for today's matter, let's forget it, I won't make your money, you don't make any more ideas for us, ten years, in fact, it will be very fast, and it will pass in a flash." Discussed with Squire Ma: "Everyone is kind, forget all those misunderstandings..."
"Ten years, soon?"
"Yeah, soon."
Bang!
At this moment, Squire Ma suddenly burst into a faint black air. We were all squeezed in a small boat, and there was no room to dodge and retreat. As soon as the black air radiated out, it immediately engulfed a few people in it.
The black breath is very weak, but the smell penetrates through the nose and eyes, as if there is an invisible hand, holding my heart tightly, my throat tightens, and my eyes turn black, I just feel that I can't even breathe. Coming up.
My three souls and seven souls seemed to be smoked out by this unspeakable odor, and my body was swaying, and I couldn't stand firmly at all. Squire Ma didn't say anything, raised his hand to grasp the old man Ma, and threw him into the water. God fortune and I were dizzy, and the scene in front of us was also vague, unable to stop Squire Ma.
Immediately afterwards, Squire Ma grabbed me by the collar. Although my head was dizzy, I didn't completely lose my mind. I knew in my heart that Squire Ma still didn't give up, and if he threw me and the old man into the river, he would definitely be rushed to the side of Shenglong's halo again.
However, I didn't have the power to resist, and I was fainted. My life is hanging by a thread, and one of my hands is stuck on the side of the ship, no matter how Squire Ma pulls, I will not let go.
Just when I could hardly hold on, I vaguely saw a floating corpse slowly climbing up from the stern. The floating corpse seemed to have splashed a layer of white lime from top to bottom.
The floating corpse climbed up to the stern, turned over, and directly grabbed the horse squire by the ankle. Squire Ma was crazy, he just wanted to throw me off the boat. Without turning his head back, he shook his foot vigorously to get rid of the floating corpse.
The moon was hanging in the sky, and the moonlight was shining down, so I could barely distinguish the scene in front of me. When the floating corpse grabbed the Squire Ma, I suddenly saw its face.
Its face is like a piece of white paper, but its nose, eyes and mouth let me see clearly.
Father, it's father!
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through my mind, many, many memories hidden in my heart, and the distant and the near, swarms of them emerged.
I used to see you in the big river
Once with his father, at that time, he was in that small swirling whirlpool, just like other floating corpses.
I refused to give up, and insisted on drifting around in the big river, hunting for corpses, just to find him. Originally, I knew how difficult it would be to find a floating corpse in the vast river, but I always held a trace of obsession in my heart.
At this moment, I felt that I was running around, and finally it was not in vain. I still found my father, even though he was just a floating corpse.
No matter how he shook his foot, Squire Ma didn't get rid of his father. His father suddenly turned over on the boat, trying to take Squire Ma down. But Squire Ma's hands firmly grasped my collar, but I couldn't get rid of it, and along with Squire Ma, I rolled down into the river.
The fortune teller and the man in charge of the ship both stood up swayingly. The shipman saw the squire Ma falling into the water and wanted to save him with the boat. But my father clung to Squire Ma, and Squire Ma clung to me again, entangled with each other. The person in charge of the ship waved the ship's poles vigorously, trying to beat me aside.
"It's all... It's time... There's still more chaos..." The fortune teller kicked the boatman down and snatched the boat. The shipman turned over and fell into the water, before he had time to struggle, surrounded the dense floating corpses around the boat, and directly dragged him underwater. The ship owner didn't even have a chance to yell, and he threw out a few splashes, and then disappeared.
"Brother... Grab..." Dizzy and dizzy by the black air just now, the dizzy cough made two vigorous coughs, and handed the boat to me: "I... I will pull you up..."
I just wanted to reach out and grab it, but the Squire Ma seemed to be really impatient. He slammed a hand out and grabbed the ship's pole with force. The fortunekeeper was dizzy at first, and he couldn't stand firmly after being pulled like this. Called, dancing and falling from the side of the boat into the river.
There are floating corpses all around, and Country Squire Ma is more thorough than anyone else. He clings to me tightly, not willing to lose his hand, lest if he loses his hand, the floating corpses will entangle him and drag him underwater.
All the people fell into the water, and the floating corpses that had been holding the boat upstream were all scattered. The boat had no external force, and then slowly drifted down the water, drifting to the dragon's halo 30 feet away.
I can feel a force coming from the water, supporting the few of us, so that it will not sink under the water, nor will it be swept into the dragon's halo by the current. The sky was completely dark, only a piece of moonlight above the head, and the dense floating corpses sank one after another under the water. Following that, the underwater force reversed its direction and dragged the three of us towards the river bank.
People were in the water, even if they had strength, they couldn't fully use them. Soon, the three of them were rushed to the river. Squire Ma still held me tightly, and when we ran aground into the shallow water on the shore, a floating corpse still pestered Squire Ma, trying to drag him away.
