Seeing his actions, Wang Qiang quietly held the engineer's shovel open and held it in his hands, squatting back to back with him.
"What does this thing usually eat?"
"Fish in this river!"
"Oh, meat eaters!" Wang Qiang sucked his teeth in embarrassment, and then asked:
"Then tell me, is this thing hungry now or not?"
"I think it's probably dinner time."
"Okay! We've caught up with all the good things!"
Wang Qiang slapped his thigh and sat down on the board of the boat.
After hearing what they said, Li Li and Abu both came over.
"Consultant Lin, is there something going on?"
Lin Yi nodded, and then immediately arranged:
"Li Li, you lead people to guard the bow, leave two people to guard the middle, and the three of us guard the stern."
"what about me?"
Bai Lu volunteered to stand up.
"Okay, then I won't be pretentious with you. We are three and a half landlubbers. You are good at water, so just stay with us at the stern of the boat."
After Lin Yi finished arranging the arrangements, he gave the instructions again.
"Don't turn on the flashlight easily along the way. These 'grim-faced bats' are carnivorous. They are very anxious now and cannot withstand the stimulation of the light."
The group of people stayed on the boat quietly, floating along the winding river, with only the sound of rushing water around them.
The prehistoric beast that had just escaped into the water did not appear again for a while.
The current situation of being attacked from both sides made everyone's spirits tense, and they did not dare to relax at all.
After traveling quietly in the dark river for a few minutes, there were no changes around the ship's hull, only ups and downs along the river.
"Old Lin, do you think we have left the danger zone?"
Wang Qiang asked tentatively.
"I don't know, I don't have night vision, so I can't see anything."
"Hey, talking about this, I remembered something, Te Tiao.
When the Japanese were fighting against the American emperor, they specially trained a group of special reconnaissance soldiers. Their eyesight must be at least 2.0, so they could see the last line at a glance on the eye chart from several meters away.
I usually eat fish, cod liver oil, and things that can improve my eyesight, just to be able to observe the other party's movements at night with my naked eyes.
As a result, the Japanese couldn't see each other again and again, and they were always beaten like a grandson by the American emperor. They finally captured an American soldier and asked, guess what? "
"What's wrong?"
"The American imperialists use a special kind of radar. I feel so happy when I think about that scene. The Japanese are looking seriously with their heads stretched out, but the machine gun on the opposite side is dead.
What is dimensionality reduction attack? Ouch, shit, no, no, no, it made me laugh so hard, I couldn’t help but laugh even if I didn’t reply to this story. "
Wang Qiang laughed so hard that everyone on the boat was also infected by his laughter. Who cares whether his story is true or not, just join in the fun together.
"Shhh! There's movement!"
Lin Yi suddenly stretched out his hand, and everyone fell silent.
A paddling sound came from just below the stern of the boat.
"That thing under the water was following us just now."
Lin Yi stared at the water and complained softly.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole ship was in an uproar.
The sense of oppression brought by this underwater prehistoric creature is stronger than the "ghost-faced bats" above the head.
It just scratched a little under the water and almost overturned the entire wooden boat.
The tin can was swallowed whole by it.
In the face of such a powerful biting force, human bones may be more brittle than sugar cane.
"Consultant Lin, such a huge creature has been following us. Why didn't we notice it just now?"
Bai Lu asked with some confusion.
"I think it's because our flat boat has passed through several tributaries of the underground river in succession. More flow has merged into the main river, and the boat's speed has obviously accelerated.
It may have realized that its speed might not be able to keep up, so it accelerated its paddling speed. "
Lin Yi replied.
Several people are now completely trapped in conflicts.
If you want to figure out the movements of this prehistoric beast, you have to create light.
But if the brightness is too low, the underwater situation cannot be seen clearly;
When the brightness is high, it may alarm the "grim-faced bats" above.
Both can pose a fatal threat to them.
As for the one underwater, even Lin Yi couldn't figure out what it was.
"These creatures have been living underground, and in these extremely dark conditions, we can't see them at all. They know exactly what we are doing."
"Yeah, it's like my mouth is open, whatever I say comes out, it's so unlucky!"
Wang Qiang blamed himself.
"Consultant Lin, do you know the habits of this underwater beast?"
Bai Lu suddenly asked.
Lin Yi shook his head.
"There are many options. I can't accurately judge it just by looking at its back across the water. If I could know its origin, I might have a way to deal with it."
"Then can I use that claw you just had?"
Bai Lu asked again.
"You want to go into the water?"
Lin Yi seemed to have guessed her intention.
"Well, you are allowed to act cool? What? Are you afraid that I will steal your limelight? Stingy!"
"Trying to be cool? How about I run away for my life? You absolutely can't do that!"
Lin Yi decisively refused, turned around and made arrangements for Li Li on the bow of the boat.
"There is only one way now. Li Li, gather all our lighting equipment together and shine them on the water surface later to lure all these 'grim-faced bats' to the water surface."
"Do you want them to kill each other? Lao Lin, I really have you!"
"I don't know if this plan will work, what if they both have their guns pointed at us."
"Bah, bah, bah, don't say such depressing words. I'm telling you, there are always conflicts between neighbors. These bats have been pooping and peeing all day long. This guy has probably endured it underwater for a long time. This guy in the water usually competes with bats for food, so if they take the opportunity this time, why don't they settle old and new scores together?"
Li Li suddenly spoke in front:
"Everyone, hold on tight. There is a continuous downward river channel ahead, and the speed will be very fast."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "pop" from the stern of the boat, as if something fell into the water.
"Bai Lu!"
Lin Yi cried out and touched his waist again.
The flying tiger claw hanging on the belt was indeed missing.
"This girl is so brave!"
At this moment, the wooden boat has begun to enter the rapid channel. The difference between the upper and lower sides is huge, and the wooden boat is traveling faster and faster.
At this moment, the water below the stern of the ship suddenly lit up with a little fluorescence.
One of Bai Lu's hands was tightly tied to the handle of the Flying Tiger Claw, and the other hand held a fluorescent stick, leading a huge black shadow behind her to fan two huge wings, and followed closely behind her. .
As a huge water drop appeared in front, the wooden boat dropped rapidly, directly taking Bai Lu out of the water.
The moment she took to the air, the huge thing behind her also jumped up from the bottom of the water.
"Quick! Turn on the flashlight and concentrate on the stern of the ship!"
Lin Yi gave an order, and all the lighting equipment in everyone's hands hit the water behind them.
The figure of this giant beast finally appeared in front of everyone.
