The originally churning waves calmed down in an instant. If my body hadn’t been soaked by the previous waves, which made me feel extremely cold, I might have foolishly thought that this was just an illusion, an illusion. Just a weird dream.
The boat was no longer rowing, as if it had dropped a heavy anchor and was anchored in the river, motionless.
"What are you doing stupidly? Go rowing!"
Lai Aotian roared hysterically, and the ugly boatman finally recovered. He kept swinging the oars with both hands, trying to get the boat to move again.
However, something strange happened.
No matter how hard the boatman rowed with all his strength, there was still not a single ripple on the silent river surface, and the small boat stayed motionless in its place.
Click...!
Two crisp sounds in succession shocked the heartstrings of everyone on the boat. The ugly boatman collapsed on the boat, "The head... the leader, the oar... is broken...!"
The sun and the moon alternate, and a bright and bright full moon rises high, reflecting on the calm river surface, adding a bit of weirdness.
Except for Liu Tingting and me, everyone on the boat showed extremely frightened expressions, especially the pig-headed clansman, whose miserable expression was as if his biological father had died.
puff……!
There was a muffled sound, which sounded like a fish in the water showing its head to take a breath.
However, under the moonlight, what was exposed on the quiet river surface was not a fish head, but a human head with white hair follicles soaked in water!
Half of the head was above the water, staring directly at us in the boat with a pair of eyes filled with deathly energy.
Puff puff puff puff...!
Immediately afterwards, as muffled sounds came from the river one after another, heads appeared one after another in the silent river.
Not all of those heads had white hair. Many of them might have been eaten by fish in the water, leaving only a horrifyingly mutilated skeleton.
"Wow... ghosts, so many ghosts, they are going to die, we are all going to die!"
The pig-headed tribesman was so frightened that he screamed. If he hadn't been on this small boat, he would have been the first to escape.
"Shut up, you loser!"
Lai Aotian angrily scolded the Zhutou tribe, then looked at the head of the person who kept rising out of the water and said coldly: "Lai tribe warriors, pay attention, keep your feet firmly planted, don't be dragged into the water. !”
"knew!"
Seven or eight men in black robes responded in unison.
I had no time to pay attention to these people on the boat, because my eyes were completely stunned by the densely packed heads of people in the river.
In just a few tens of seconds, there were hundreds of heads above the water, and they directly surrounded our small boat in the depths.
Uh-huh...!
The heads opened their mouths and roared almost at the same time, and then gathered towards the boat like fish.
The quiet river surface was once again stirred up by waves, and the frail boat was tightly surrounded by hundreds of moving heads.
Finally, the strangeness of being in the river was not limited to the heads. Pairs of equally gray hair and even incomplete arms poked out of the river.
A pair of hands grabbed the edge of the boat and shook it violently, as if it was going to overturn the boat completely.
"Cut it!"
Lai Aotian shouted loudly, and took the lead in swinging his machete and slashing at a pair of arms that had just grabbed the edge of the boat.
Uh-huh...!
Phew...!
A pair of pale arms were chopped off with a sudden sound, and a dark and extremely foul-smelling viscous liquid flowed from the fractures.
The floating corpse that had lost its arms was still waving its stumps and severed limbs unmoved and slapping against the edge of the boat, and even opened its disgusting mouth to reach for the edge of the boat.
"Ah...help...!"
Or the violent shaking of the boat, coupled with the difficulty of standing on the slippery boat, actually caused a man in black robes to chop his arms along the side of the boat, and at the same time, his feet slipped and fell into the crowded river.
A desperate scream came, and by the time the others recovered and tried to step forward to help him, it was obviously too late. The man in black robe was directly overwhelmed by dozens of heads.
It was not just the one who fell into the water, the tragedy was still unfolding unhurriedly.
One after another, the men in black robes fell into the river. Some of them were careless, and some were pulled down by the pairs of arms.
In just a few minutes, there were not many people left standing on the bow and stern of the ship.
The pig-head tribesman curled up on the boat with his head in his hands, and stuck his butt out high. Without the restraints of the boat canopy, my feet could stretch out, so I couldn't help but kick the pig-head tribe's raised butt hard. past.
"I kicked you this time for me, you loser!"
The pig-head clan member looked at me with extremely resentful eyes. It was obvious that he wanted to kill me on the spot.
But the pairs of arms stretched out on the edge of the boat had already made him panic, and he didn't have the thought to take care of me.
The boat was only that wide. Liu Tingting and I were facing each other, constantly kicking the floating corpses clinging to the edge of the boat to prevent them from capsizing the boat.
"Xie Dongzi, hurry up, there are scissors in my backpack, hurry up!"
During the struggle, the rag in Liu Tingting's mouth fell off. She suddenly shouted, twisted her body, and threw her small handbag to my hand.
I immediately opened the zipper of the small handbag by feeling, and soon found the small scissors used to cut the gauze.
Although the scissors are small, they are very fast, so I easily cut the rope tied to my wrist.
After untying Liu Tingting in the same way, I quickly grabbed the dragon's claw that was still on the board of the ship.
In fact, I really wanted to give Lai Aotian a break at that time, but I didn't do that. Although he wanted to kill me, considering the current situation, letting him live might also give myself a chance to survive.
As several men in black robes continued to fall into the river, there were only a few people still alive.
Apart from me and Liu Tingting, the only ones left were Lai Aotian and the man in black robe who had talked to him before, and then there was the pig-headed clansman curled up in the corner.
Lai Aotian obviously also noticed that I broke free from the restraints of the rope, but now he had no time to care about it, and kept waving the machete in his hand to chop.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, I naturally couldn't stand idly by, but compared to destroying those pairs of arms, it would be more practical to just smash their heads.
Bang...bang...!
The head of a floating corpse was smashed into pieces by my claws like a rotten watermelon.
Although a large piece of disgusting viscous liquid splashed out, it really had a substantive effect. As soon as the head exploded, the body of the floating corpse began to sink, and the arms clinging to the edge of the boat also began to sink. It fell off in response.
Lai Aotian and the remaining warriors in his clan were still focused on chopping, but they quickly learned the winning experience from me.
"Off the head!"
With the chops one after another, the heads of the floating corpses were split open like watermelons, and then the floating corpses were immersed in the river one after another.
Although this trick worked, we were able to deal with hundreds of floating corpses in a short time.
Although the boat was not big, facing so many floating corpses, the few of us were helpless. The boat was still shaking violently, and the entire hull even made a sound that was on the verge of disintegration.
"Oops, the bottom of the boat is cracked!"
Liu Tingting shouted, and I looked around. Not only on the bottom of the boat, but also on the center of the boat, there was a crack visible to the naked eye, and the river water was pouring in continuously from the crack.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel despair. At this speed, I'm afraid it won't be long before the boat will be completely broken and silent, and we will be buried in the cold river water.
Either drown to death, or be eaten up by those floating corpses!
