Early the next morning, Guo Kai knocked on the door early and said that the six teams behind him were here and had already gone to the river.
Hearing this, I simply packed up and went out with Huang Jiu on my back.
Hu Hai and the others left a car for us long ago.
When we arrived at the ruins of the village, thirty or forty people had gathered on the shore. Compared to us, they were well prepared, and some of them had brought diving equipment.
We are already discussing and getting ready to dive into the water.
On the ruins, some people also followed our example and dug up the bones of villagers for observation.
It has to be said that with many people, there are also many ideas.
Zhang Ziran came over and asked me, "What are our plans?"
I said, "Just stand and watch."
Chen Qun said angrily: "Look, we have oxygen bottles and diving suits, but we don't have any shit. It's a bad luck for eight lifetimes to have a tough guy like you on the stand."
I deliberately disgusted him and asked, "Will you pay for these things?"
Guo Kai asked: "Didn't you say last night that you wanted to seize the opportunity? Your first opportunity was to stand and watch?"
Yesterday I really wanted to be half a step ahead of others, but I kept things simple.
I felt a little unreasonable, so I simply shut up and stopped talking to them.
Seeing that I didn't speak, the three of them were very angry, but they couldn't do anything to me.
In fact, our team was not the only one watching from the shore.
There are only two waves of people who really take action and want to get into the water.
After a while, after changing into their diving suits and tying safety ropes around their waists, the four "frogmen" slid into the water.
At first, people on the shore were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
But as the ropes on the shore became longer and longer, the expressions of the four "frogman" teammates became solemn.
I ran over and took a look. The scale on the rope showed that it was already more than thirty meters out.
"What's going on? Is the water here so deep?" someone asked.
Some people who were watching like us muttered: "The water here is calm and the wind and waves are not strong. It is impossible to wash people away."
Some people also suggested that two teams should pull people up first.
But one of the two captains said: "The oxygen cylinder can be used for forty-five minutes, and if they want to come up, they will send us a signal."
Hearing this, the surroundings became quiet again.
After a while, the rope's scale reached seventy meters.
At this depth, professional divers are in danger.
Besides, those four "frogmen" were not professionals.
The two captains were also a little nervous and kept looking at the river.
But the river was turbid and nothing could be seen.
Seeing that there was only about ten meters of rope left, one of the captains said: "Stop, pull the rope up."
The other captain hesitated for a moment and then ordered to retract the rope.
However, with this pull, the expression of the person responsible for releasing the rope suddenly changed.
Several people pulled hard again, and one of them shouted: "Something's wrong, the rope can't be pulled."
As soon as he finished speaking, the taut rope suddenly slid into the river. The force was so great that the skin on the palms of the people holding the rope was rubbed off and dripping with blood.
Seeing this, the onlookers rushed forward to help pull the rope.
Suddenly, there were eight or nine people behind each rope, and then they caught the sinking rope.
I also followed up to help, and when I pulled it up, it felt like a heavy weight was being pulled underneath.
Seeing that the rope was steady, the two captains hurriedly said: "Everyone listen to the slogan and work hard together."
Now, no one will think about why the four people underwater have become so heavy. They just want to pull them ashore as soon as possible.
The two captains shouted one or two, and everyone worked together, and the rope was finally pulled out bit by bit.
The rope was pulled back forty or fifty meters, and just when the people below were about to get out of the water, strange waves suddenly appeared on the river, as if a huge thing was stirring at the bottom of the water, and whitecaps rolled for a while.
After the wave passed, a whirlpool with a diameter of more than two meters appeared in the middle of the river.
Suddenly, the vortex seemed to be blocked, and under the backlash, a column of water rose into the sky.
As soon as everyone's hands were loosened, many people couldn't hold themselves steady and fell to the ground, covered in yellow mud.
Fortunately for me, the person was already behind me, and with my weak strength, I stabilized my figure immediately.
The water column in the river seemed to have rushed out of something, flying more than ten meters high and hitting the bank heavily.
When the thing hit the ground, I looked at it immediately and gasped.
Those thrown ashore by the water column were the four "frogmen" who had just entered the water.
But now only the body is left, without the head.
Moreover, the flesh and blood of the fractures turned white, which showed that the four people had been dead for a long time. The blood had drained away and the wounds had been washed for a long time.
For a time, there were gasps and exclamations, and the shore became a mess.
This scene was somewhat beyond my expectations.
Unexpectedly, four people died on the first day.
Something happened to the team members, and the two captains' faces became more and more gloomy. One of them turned around and cursed: "You trash, except for standing around and watching, you are nothing but bullshit."
Everyone helped me just now, but now they are being scolded like this, and they are all unhappy.
But when they saw that they had killed someone, no one responded.
The scolding captain sprayed a circle, looked at the river with a sullen face and said, "I want to see if there is a dragon king or an old turtle under the water."
He said as he took off his shirt, revealing the tattoos on his back.
At first glance, it looks like a patterned dragon, but upon closer inspection, I realize that it is two lifelike dragons playing in the water.
Huang Jiu whispered: "This is a person from the Jiuqu Sect. He lives by the Yellow River. The water quality is very good, and the tattoo on his back also has a good background."
Zhang Ziran snorted coldly: "What's the origin? It's just a little trick!"
Zhang Ziran's attitude has become more correct, but he still finds trouble everywhere, but this time he messed with the wrong person.
As soon as Huang Jiu heard this, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Zhang Ziran said that the picture of the dragon playing in the water in Jiuqumen is just a trick..."
"You..." Zhang Ziran turned pale with anger.
Fortunately, our position was at the back, and the sound of the river lapping at the bank drowned out Huang Jiu's voice.
When several people around him heard this, they turned their heads and looked at Zhang Ziran, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Huang Jiu grinned, looked at Zhang Ziran and asked, "If you have anything else to say, I'll convey it to you."
"Huh!" Zhang Ziran took a deep breath and turned his head to the side in anger.
Huang Jiu proudly stretched out his paw and gestured "yeah".
After the captain of Jiuqumen took off his shirt, he took the short knife handed to him by his companion, put it in his mouth, and jumped into the Yellow River.
As soon as he entered the water, the two dragons tattooed on his body seemed to come to life.
There was a faint light emerging, blocking out the pushing waves.
The captain of Jiuqumen took a deep breath and plunged into the water. His figure quickly disappeared into the rolling yellow water.
The river surface fell into calm again.
But this calm only lasted for a few minutes, and the whirlpool just now appeared again.
The next second, the captain of the Jiuqu Sect popped his head out of the whirlpool, but he took a deep breath and immediately returned to the water.
It looked like he was fighting something.
