Just when I started to do it, I suddenly noticed a force beside me that pushed me hard. The next second, another figure stood in front of me, holding something in his hand and fiercely pointing towards this person. The man took a photo.
In an instant, the man's figure swayed, as if he had received a huge impact, and he quickly backed away to avoid touching the object.
I blinked and realized that the person standing in front of me was actually Zhuge Chalcedony. He waved his hand slightly at me, grasped the jade and copper coin in his hand, and then stretched out his hand to point at the top of our heads.
I knew he wanted me to go back to the shore.
But the rope around my waist got stuck and couldn't be untied at all. The other end was still wrapped around the man's body. Even if I returned to the shore, he would have to catch me sooner or later.
I looked ugly, and Zhuge Chalcedony also followed my gaze and saw my waist, and he could clearly see the rope.
A flash of surprise flashed across Zhuge Jade Mian's face, and soon he shook his head at me, and then pushed my body upwards.
Then he suddenly snatched the dagger from my hand and cut his own arm directly, and a trace of blood instantly poured out.
As the blood surged, the man who had just been driven away by him with jade and copper coins quickly turned around and rushed towards us at an extremely fast speed.
Zhuge Chalcedony pushed me again and understood what he meant. He was deliberately diverting my attention to attract this man to the river bank.
Only in this way can I successfully swim back to the river bank. This guy should be repaying us for saving his life just now.
But I didn't have time to think too much. The most important thing now was to get the rope off as soon as possible. I immediately turned around and swam toward the river bank, and soon my head popped up.
Seeing me sticking my head out, Wang Wangyang, who was anxiously searching the edge, immediately grabbed my arm and quickly dragged me to the river bank.
I gasped for air and quickly pointed at the rope around my waist and shouted to them.
"Where's my Shang Fang sword? Help me cut this thing off."
Before falling into the water, I asked Cui Hao to help me hold Shang Fang's sword towards the entrance of the cave, to be alert to any monsters that might come out of there.
I just didn't expect that I didn't have this thing with me, and I was dragged into the water so hard that I couldn't even cut the steel and copper wires.
After Cui Hao heard what I said, he immediately rushed to my side and threw Shang Fang's sword to me.
"Master Xiaoman, you should take this thing with you next time. None of us can use this thing. There was another roar just now in the cave. I wanted to pull out Shang Fang's sword, but I found that the thing was not obedient at all. The sword It's stuck in the scabbard and can't be pulled out at all."
I was stunned, and suddenly thought that this thing seemed to have recognized its owner, but now was not the time to worry about these details. I immediately pulled out Shang Fang's sword and quickly grew it on the steel wire.
Shang Fang's sword is indeed an ancient treasure. It can cut iron like clay. With a turn of my wrist, the steel wire and copper wire were cut into two pieces by me, and I regained my freedom.
I breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly got up from the ground, quickly pointed to the bottom of the river bank and shouted to Wang Wangyang.
"Wang Wangyang, Zhuge Chalcedony is down there. He helped me just now. If you are good at water, can you go down and bring him up and help him. I am not very good at water."
Wang Wangyang was stunned, immediately nodded and quickly dodged, jumping into the water.
There was another wave rolling under the water, and after another half a minute, Zhuge Chalcedony suddenly emerged from underneath, and behind him was Wang Wangyang who looked frightened.
"Take me up quickly, that thing is coming."
I rushed to the river bank and quickly dragged the two of them up. And another head floated on the river. This was the man who was possessed by something just now.
The white fluff on this man's body has grown to nearly one meter, and the end is as thick as a little finger.
These white fluffs kept swimming up and down in the water, trying to catch Wang Wangyang and Zhuge Chalcedony several times, but our movements were too fast, and before he even had time to do it, Zhuge Chalcedony and the others were already caught by us. Drag it to the shore.
The man glanced in our direction angrily and unwillingly, and finally sank into the water, and soon disappeared.
Zhuge Chalcedony collapsed on the shore, gasping for air. Wang Wangyang was also in a bad state. Apparently he choked on his saliva when he entered the water just now, and he must have been frightened by what was underneath.
"How are you doing?"
I quickly dragged the two of them up the river bank again, in case something came out from below, they might be in danger.
Wang Wangyang waved his hand at me and stared at the river below in confusion.
"What is that thing in there? That man has only been in the water for a short time, so how did he look like this?"
Zhuge Chalcedony interrupted at this time.
"Because there were wounds on his body, it was said that something was attracted to him and entered his body, and he was completely dragged to death under the water."
As if he knew something about it, Zhuge Chalcedony quickly raised his palm and looked at Cui Hao.
"Cui Hao, if I remember correctly, there should be a glass cup in my hand. Can you give me some of the bone-eating powder in it? Otherwise, before long, I will become like that guy just now. "
Cui Hao was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhuge Chalcedony in shock.
Zhuge Chalcedony thought he didn't believe it, so he lifted up his sleeves, and instantly we saw the long white hair growing on his arms.
The hair was as long as a little finger, and its ends were dancing constantly, fluttering around his body like a living thing.
Zhuge Chalcedony took another step towards our direction, with bitterness on his face.
"Of course, you have your own reasons if you don't want to."
Cui Hao cursed secretly, quickly took out the glass cup, took out the medicinal powder and handed it to Zhuge Chalcedony.
"What do you want to use this thing for? If you accidentally use this thing on yourself, it will kill you."
Cui Hao looked at Zhuge Chalcedony worriedly, but the next second he directly picked up the powder and sprinkled it on his arm.
The medicinal powder sank into his wound and disappeared quickly. Zhuge Chalcedony's face showed a look of pain. His body was struggling and twisting, and it was obvious that he was in extreme pain.
"Didn't I tell you? You can't use things on yourself, why don't you listen to me?"
Cui Hao was shocked, and rushed over and grabbed Zhuge Chalcedony's arm, trying to help get the powder out.
Zhuge Chalcedony, however, waved his hand to stop Cui Hao's movement, retreated and sat directly on the ground.
"It doesn't matter, only this powder can force them out. I know this stuff very well. Don't worry, I will save my life more than you."
While Zhuge Chalcedony was speaking, he had already taken out the dagger he had just snatched from my hand, plunged it directly into his own wound, and began to pick things out with all his strength.
Looking at his cold expression, I couldn't help but feel chilled in my heart. I didn't expect this guy's patience to be so high. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to pierce the dagger directly into my own flesh and smash my own flesh and blood like him.
Zhuge Chalcedony dug out for a long time, and suddenly his face became happy. The next second he used a dagger to pick out a white silk thread from inside.
The white thread twisted its body crazily on the dagger, as if it still wanted to get into his body.
Zhuge Chalcedony showed no mercy and quickly picked up the white silk thread with his dagger. At the same time, he sprinkled the powder on the surface of the white silk thread.
The white thread seemed to be burnt in an instant, and the body shrank into a section of black. Zhuge Chalcedony was overjoyed and immediately pulled the thread out of his body.
In about a minute, he dragged the white thin line out to a length of one meter, and finally it came to an end.
Zhuge Chalcedony smeared all the subsequent powder on, and the white threads were soon scorched black, and he no longer had the strength to struggle.
Zhuge Chalcedony sprinkled some more powder to ensure that every section of the meter-long white thread turned black. Maybe he was relieved after he got up again.
"What is this? Nematode?"
The white silk thread is about the thickness of the little finger, and the body is about one meter long. It looks very penetrating, but since the whole body has been burned now, we are no longer as scared as before.
Zhuge Chalcedony nodded, and quickly pulled down the white silk threads on his body, and these things were torn off easily.
"This is a white worm, a specially cultured bug. These things need to rely on a host to survive. Due to their poor eyesight and extremely weak sense of surrounding temperature, etc., their only way to judge prey is , is blood. Once there is the smell of blood around, these insect eggs floating in the willows will quickly penetrate into the blood and become parasitic inside. "
Zhuge Chalcedony pointed at the burnt black thing on the ground.
"They also compete with each other. After choosing a host, other egg worms that also enter the body will die directly. The one left in my body is the only one, and he will gradually inhabit my body. The body grows and spreads throughout my body along my veins and flesh, and it bears fruit and flowers on my body, growing these fine filaments of hair.”
I was shocked, thinking about the meter-long white thin threads on the man I saw under the water. Could it be that these were parasitic insects?
Seeing the shock on my face, Zhuge Chalcedony smiled bitterly and began to explain the origin of this thing to me.
