Mr. Wu quietly came over, handed over a cigarette, and said: "To be honest, we are actually from the archaeological team. We are just here to visit. A large army will also come here in a while. From what you say, you seem to know a lot."
Zhang Zhuoxun almost laughed out loud. He was from the archaeological team. Why didn't he say he was an underground worker? It would be more vivid.
The boatman took the cigarette and put it in his ear, shaking his head, "That's all I know. I heard it from the old people in the village. I don't know the details."
Then he started telling stories.
Wu Xiaoxie was always serious when listening to stories, and his tense body relaxed a lot.
Zhang Zhu listened for a while and found it boring. He closed his eyes and listened carefully for any abnormalities.
After a few seconds, he opened his eyes suddenly, put his index finger on his lips and said "Shh".
At the same time, the quiet guy along the way suddenly said, "Quiet, listen, someone is talking."
Everyone was startled, and then they immediately held their breath and concentrated. Sure enough, they heard a rustling sound, as if someone was whispering in their ears. If they listened carefully, it sounded like the wind blowing leaves.
Wu Xiaoxie's scalp was numb. He quickly opened the safety catch and looked around cautiously.
Then he said "fuck", "Where is the boatman?"
When everyone looked back, not only the boatman, but also the old man driving the bullock cart was missing.
"What's wrong!" Mr. Wu frowned in annoyance, "Those two people must have used some way to hide just now. We don't have corpse energy on our bodies, so we must not be able to get through this cave. We don't know what will happen later. What."
As he spoke, he looked at Pan Zi and asked, "Have you not fought in a war before? Have you ever eaten dead people?"
"..." Pan Zi looked like you were joking, "The fighting had basically stopped when I went there, and I didn't even touch the gun a few times."
He pointed at Dakui and said, "Dakui said before that he had eaten those kind of meat buns."
Dakui immediately glared, "I was just bragging. How could I ever eat that thing?"
Mr. Wu shouted with a dark face, "Shut up, everyone."
The hull of the ship suddenly shook violently, and a huge black shadow floated from under the ship.
Da Kui, who was timid at first, turned pale with fright and said tremblingly: "San... San Ye, why don't we go back? That thing looks too big, and it won't be enough for all of us together." A chewable one.”
Mr. Wu slapped him on the back and cursed: "You are so worthless. We and our children haven't even screamed. What the hell are you afraid of? We guys have so many people, why are you afraid of a diao!"
Da Kui huddled into the cabin aggrievedly, not daring to say anything anymore.
Mr. Wu looked at the little brother squatting on the bow of the boat, as if he wanted to ask for advice.
The little brother didn't listen to what they said at all. He turned into a stone sculpture and stared at the water intently, as if he was looking for something.
Suddenly, he moved.
His right hand was as fast as lightning. The moment it was inserted into the water, it popped out. Two long fingers held a black object and casually threw it on the board of the boat.
"Just now, it was this."
Wu Xiaoxie got close and looked around, "Isn't this a dragon louse? Is that the black shadow just now?"
The little brother said succinctly, "Yes."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Dakui probably felt that his performance just now was too embarrassing, so he was so angry that he squashed the black bug with his kick.
Mr. Wu suddenly picked up a leg of an insect, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said in horror: "This damn thing is a corpse cricket!"
Everyone was suddenly shocked, and the cold air penetrated to the soles of their feet.
Da Kui was so frightened that he wished he could cry on the spot, "Third Master... this... what kind of corpse cricket is this, does it bite?"
"I can't say for sure. This thing eats carrion. It will definitely not bite people if it is normal in size, but with a size like this..." Mr. Wu himself was not sure.
Zhang Zhuxun suddenly said, "Why is the sound gone just now?"
Everyone: "Fuck!"
One incident after another, leaving no one even a chance to breathe.
Wu Xiaoxie was panicking now, "Uncle Third, why don't we leave? Didn't the old man say there is still a way to enter the mountain? It just takes a long time."
Dakui also quickly agreed, "The third master is right."
At this time, Mr. Wu also wanted to retreat. He looked at his younger brother and said, "What do you think?"
The younger brother shook his head and said calmly: "It's too late."
Wu Xiaoxie frowned and asked, "Why?"
The younger brother glanced at him and pointed back.
Zhang Zhuxun answered: "The way here has been blocked by bamboo rafts carrying luggage, and there are ox carts on them."
"Damn you!" Mr. Wu cursed, "Those two old thieves have already planned this."
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
At this time, the rustling sound that had just stopped started again, and it was noisier than the last time, making people irritated for no reason.
The atmosphere was extremely strange for a moment.
Zhang Zhuoxun knew that the sound was strange and quickly closed his ears.
But he saw that everyone was stunned, obviously lost their minds.
Suddenly, Zhang Zhuxun felt a few drops of water splash on his face. When he looked up, he saw the younger brother kicking people into the water one by one.
Poor Wu Xiaoxie was the first to be kicked.
Soon the little brother came to Zhang Shuxun. Just as he was about to lift his feet, Zhang Shuxun quickly pointed to his ears and shouted loudly, "I can't hear you."
The little brother looked at him strangely, and seeing that he was indeed conscious, he didn't care anymore and jumped into the water himself.
Zhang Zhuoxun breathed a sigh of relief. There were both corpses and the bodies of boatmen soaking in the water. It was so dirty that he didn't want to soak in it.
According to the timeline in the notes, the boatman is probably dead by now.
Wu Xiaoxie just emerged from the water, wiped the water on his face, opened his eyes and saw a bloody head, and howled in shock.
Pan Zi was being attacked by a zombie as big as a basin. He flicked the dagger and threw the corpse away.
The one who was so lucky happened to be in the direction of Wu Xiaoxie.
Wu Xiaoxie was so frightened that his whole body stiffened. His mind told him to run away quickly, but his arms and legs refused to obey his orders.
Wu Xiaoxie closed her eyes, thinking that my life was at stake.
With a whoosh, a ray of silver light came through the air and directly split the corpse frog in two into Wu Xiaoxie's face.
Wu Xiaoxie raised his face and caught the juice from the corpse frog.
"..." Zhang Zhuxun took back his hand.
Wu Xiaoxie held his neck and waited for a long time, but instead of the expected pain, he was splashed with unknown smelly water on his face.
He opened his eyes in confusion, reached out and wiped a handful of it on his face. The sticky green water in his hand made him instantly nauseous.
"Ahem..." Zhang Zhuoxun coughed to cover up his embarrassment, let go of his ears, avoided the corpse water, picked up Wu Xiaoxie's back collar and lifted him onto the boat, and handed him a bottle of water, "Don't talk yet. Wash your face quickly, it will drip from your mouth soon."
Wu Xiaoxie: "..."
Brother, Pan Zi and the others also climbed onto the boat one after another.
The thrilling scene just now frightened Mr. Wu so much that he took a deep look at Zhang Zhuxun and knew that he had made a mistake before. However, no matter what, this man did save his eldest nephew's life. The favor must be returned.
After Wu Xiaoxie washed his face, he used an empty bottle to poke the two halves of the insect corpse that Pan Zi had caught. He turned to look at Zhang Zhuo curiously and asked: "Muyu, why didn't you jump into the water just now? Also, what is the dart? Just throw it away, your skills are so good!"
Zhang Zhuxun waved his hands modestly, "It's just normal. I know how to do this. Just now I felt that the sound was weird, so I quickly closed my ears. Since my ears couldn't hear, the sound naturally had no effect on me."
Wu Xiaoxie nodded, thoughtfully, "Anyway, thank you just now. If anything happens in the future, just tell your brother. I will definitely help you if I can."
Zhang Zhuoxun chuckled, "Okay, I'll remember it."
"Huh? There's a bell here."
