The headlights went out, and I no longer had to think about what would happen next. I already felt a torrent of water coming straight to my face again. I was about to die.
I have never been a person who is willing to sit back and wait for death. Even if there is a glimmer of hope of survival, I will not give up easily.
Or maybe it was because the water monkey chose to bite the headlamp instead of my head first, so it gave me a glimmer of hope.
In fact, the moment the water monkey jumped in front of me, I had already stabbed out the sharp knife in my hand. Now it happened to be just right. At the moment when the water monkey bit me again, the sharp knife in my hand directly hit me. It penetrated into his body fiercely.
Ouch...! Perhaps it was too painful. The water monkey wailed, his body trembled violently, and he immediately ran away and crouched down three meters away from me.
Just now, because the headlight suddenly went out, my eyes couldn't adapt to the darkness for a moment. I was like a blind person. I couldn't see anything except the green eyes of the water monkey.
Now it has relaxed a bit. Although the surroundings are still extremely dark, you can still vaguely see an outline wherever you look.
I don't know where on the water monkey's body the knife I just stabbed, but it was stabbed anyway.
At the same time, I also felt a stickiness in my hand holding the sharp knife. It should be the mucous membrane on the surface of the water monkey's body or the blood in its body, but no matter what, I really hurt it, but it was not fatal.
After suffering a loss, even though there was no light, the water monkey did not dare to attack again rashly. It began to move around me continuously, as if it wanted to give me a fatal blow when I was not prepared.
Naturally, I couldn't let it get what I wanted. My eyes were always following it, and the sharp knife was still firmly in my hand, always ready to stab it out.
My breathing has become increasingly unsmooth, and there is not much time left for me. Continuing in the stalemate will be the greatest disadvantage to me, so I must consider switching from defense to offense.
Just when I had this idea, suddenly a light appeared in front of my eyes. I didn't know who it was, but I knew it must be my companion and he came to find me.
I saw that light, and so did the water monkey. It actually abandoned me, a fat guy like me, and instead turned around and rushed straight towards the light.
My heart immediately skipped a beat, and it immediately rose to my throat. I took a deep breath of residual oxygen and swam with all my strength.
I tried all kinds of animal postures, including dog paddling and breaststroke, but I still couldn't beat the injured water monkey.
I finally failed to arrive in time, and I watched helplessly as the man's throat was bitten, and as a bright red gushed out, the man's head was bitten off by the water monkey.
Compared to the body, the head was indeed too small. The water monkey pounced on the body and bit it wantonly, ignoring the lonely head floating in the water.
Or maybe he was venting because he was injured. This time, the water monkey did not destroy the headlamp, but abandoned the entire head.
The head floated smoothly in front of me. The moment it approached me, the head touched a rock at the bottom of the river and hit the headlamp, preventing it from escaping the fate of being extinguished.
With great sadness, I held the head surrounded by blood in my hands. When I saw the head, I had mixed feelings in my heart. The sweet thing was that I didn’t know the owner of the head. No. I knew it belonged to the other group, but the sad thing is that this was also a living human life, and it was so pitiful and miserable to die like this.
I don't know why the deceased broke away from the team and came here. Could it be that he was in a hurry and wanted to find a place where no one was around for convenience?
This is too much. The headlight went out again, but I had already locked the location of the water monkey. It was biting the corpse with abandon, seeming to completely ignore my presence.
Brother, rest in peace, I will avenge you! I casually dropped the human head and let it continue to float and roll in the water. I held the sharp knife in my hand and quietly moved towards the water monkey bit by bit.
As the corpse was bitten mercilessly, the corpse and the water monkey were surrounded by a rich red color, making it impossible for me to accurately aim at its vital parts.
Almost at the moment when I got close to the water monkey, my oxygen was completely exhausted, and I began to feel a sense of suffocation. It wouldn't be long before I was bitten alive by the water monkey, even if I wasn't bitten to death by the water monkey. Suffocate to death.
I suddenly thought of the corpse being bitten by the water monkey at the moment, and thought that there was an oxygen bottle on his body.
Time did not allow me to think too much. Although I was not sure that I could give the water monkey a fatal blow, I still stabbed out the knife resolutely... After the knife was thrust out, the water monkey did not escape like before. My whole body was trembling, which gave me a better chance, so I used all my strength to stab the bloody water monkey in succession.
I don’t know how many times I stabbed until I had no more strength left. In fact, it's not that I have no strength, but that my blood is starting to be deprived of oxygen, my brain is starting to be deprived of oxygen, and the body's functions have begun to sound the final alarm.
The color of the water monkey's blood is also blue-black, which is indescribably weird when mixed with the bright red blood.
A rapid flow of water washed away the rich blood, revealing the original appearance of the corpse. I had no time to pay attention to the body, so I hurriedly removed the oxygen bottle from the body. After replacing it, I was finally able to breathe freely, and my mind began to gradually become clearer.
When I had my spare time, I looked around and saw that the man's body had been disemboweled and was too horrible to look at. The water monkey also completely lost all signs of life. Its head had been stabbed to pieces by me, and for a moment, its eyeballs burst out of its sockets, which was extremely terrifying.
After the disaster, I rushed back as fast as I could, because I felt that this body of water was too weird, and I had a vague feeling that there was probably not only one water monkey, nor one. Know what other people are doing at this moment.
I returned with luck and saw a lot of light floating in front of me from a distance, which made me feel happy.
But this trace of joy disappeared without a trace immediately, because I found that the lights were so sparse, floating and colliding randomly.
When I swam closer, the scene in front of me was so shocking that I opened my mouth wide and took several sips of the bright red river water.
It was extremely messy in front of me. The bodies of humans and water monkeys were floating in front of my eyes. As I thought, there were more than one water monkeys. There were three or four dead in front of me, but there were more humans at this time. , looking at the corpses everywhere, at least twenty or thirty people died, the scene was so tragic.
I searched anxiously among the corpses, but I couldn't find a familiar face. This made me feel a little bit lucky. This meant that my companions were still alive, but since they were not dead, what about them?
Apart from the corpses everywhere, I was the only living person in front of me. Could it be that all the others fled back to the shore?
Thinking of this, I kicked off the bottom of the river with both feet and swam toward the surface of the river. However, just as my feet left the bottom of the river, a hand suddenly grabbed my ankle, and my ankle suddenly fell. Pull down.
I exclaimed, holding the sharp knife in my backhand, and stabbed under me. I thought it was a water monkey again, but I didn't expect it to be a human. Fortunately, the resistance under the water was very strong, and I got there in time. He braked suddenly, stopping the blade an inch from the man's body.
Bang...! A slap hit me hard on the head. I was about to get angry when I realized that the person in front of me turned out to be Erbao.
Seeing my companion again, I felt indescribable joy in my heart. I hurriedly raised my hand and gestured to Erbao, asking him where were Mr. Liu and the others?
I thought Liu Baye and the others had all returned to the shore. When they got ashore, they found that I was not there, so they sent Erbao down to look for me.
But that was not actually the case. Erbao shook his head vigorously at me, and then pointed his finger at the location of the broken monument.
Looking in the direction of Erbao's finger, I actually saw a water hole more than one meter wide on the edge of the ruined monument!
