Whether it is an illusion or a psychological effect, he always feels that the temperature of the sea water today seems to be lower than he expected.

It was obviously a tropical sea in midsummer, but it just lost the direct sunlight, and the water flowing around him seemed to have a strange coolness, which made people feel inexplicably uneasy.

Ruan Mudeng's posture in entering the water was different from the other three. He stretched his hands forward, and plunged down three or four meters with one thrust. Once he stretched out his hands, he just reached the buoy tied to the bottom scale of the pole.So he simply went directly to deal with the buoys on the lower half of the pole, and at the same time gestured upwards to his partner who was still above his head, signaling him to deal with the ones above.

After a few days of cooperation, the two have accumulated a lot of tacit understanding. Even if they can't communicate with each other underwater, Zhou Han can guess the meaning of the other party just by looking at his gestures. In one breath, I started to untie the first buoy at a depth of one meter.

The four of them went up and down underwater, busy like a few nesting otters.

For people who have no diving experience, it is very difficult to submerge the whole person completely in the water to overcome their survival instinct, let alone hold their breath in the water for a long time and do delicate tasks such as "untying the rope". son.

The shallower two or three buoys are not bad, but when it comes to the lower ones, the depth and the water pressure that obviously cause discomfort to the eardrum are very uncomfortable.

Zhou Han went into the water for the fifth time and challenged the fifth buoy.

As a person who can only do a few dog crawls and can't swim 50 meters smoothly, he is very self-aware and knows that his water skills are really not good. He estimated that the depth of two meters and five meters is almost the same as his. Breath can dive to the limit.Zhou Han was very grateful that he was in the same group as Ruan Mudeng. If it was any one of the two in the next group, no one would be willing to dive into the water to deal with those difficult ones.

Just when he was distracted thinking about this matter, without warning, he suddenly felt a pain in his left foot, as if someone had grabbed his ankle severely, and he fell into the water without warning. , both hands involuntarily let go, and let go of the hanging rod that was originally supported.

In panic, Zhou Han instinctively opened his mouth to call out, but in the end he let out the breath he was holding.

—WTF!

At the same time of pain and panic, Zhou Han only felt dizzy and dizzy. His instinct told him to go up immediately, but in his shaking vision, he couldn't tell where "up" was. Going away by himself—in other words, he seemed to be sinking deeper.

However, the sinking feeling lasted for a short moment, and at the same time another force clamped his arm firmly, the pain of pulling his ankle suddenly disappeared!

In the tumbling strings of foam, Zhou Han saw Ruan Mudeng holding his arm with one hand and paddling the water vigorously with the other. The two rushed out of the water together like arrows leaving the string.

"There's something in the water, in the water!"

Zhou Han leaned against the edge of the floating platform, staring at the turbulent water, coughing and shouting, "I feel it! Really, really something is grabbing my feet!"

The staff members were startled when they heard him shout, they quickly surrounded and pulled Zhou Han ashore.

Ruan Mudeng also climbed up to the floating platform, and when he heard Zhou Han's words, he subconsciously looked at his feet—as expected, he saw a few strange bruises on his partner's left ankle, four on the left and one on the right. It really looks like five fingerprints!

"Fuck, what the hell is going on?"

Someone in the staff has already called out involuntarily.

In the next second, Luo Yunxiao also broke out of the water in a panic, his face was pale, his hands were dancing, he was screaming while waving his arms, but he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

--problem occurs!

When this thought came to Ruan Mudeng's mind, he plunged into the water.

The originally calm water flow seemed to start spinning at some point.

Ruan Mudeng saw that a few meters away, Shu Yao was using all four limbs, struggling violently underwater, as if he was desperately trying to float up, but he was like a hundred catty weight, moving at a speed clearly visible to the naked eye. It sank little by little, judging from the hanging stick beside him, it had passed the last buoy and sank a full five meters.

This is definitely no ordinary drowning.

Ruan Mudeng swam towards Shu Yao and opened his eyes.

After just one glance, he felt as if he was being shocked by an electric shock, and his scalp went numb all the way to his toes.

With his discerning eyes, he clearly saw dense black shadows hidden in the shadows and crevices of the sunken ship at the bottom of the water!

At this time, all these shadows poked out their "heads" from their hiding places, and looked straight at the people in the water. On the faces formed by the black mist, the contours of the facial features could still be vaguely distinguished, with no expression on their faces. Not showing deep hatred and resentment.

Looking at Shu Yao's side, there is a black shadow of a human being hanging on one of his feet, and there are several other shadows hanging on that figure, just like a bunch of grapes, entangled and cuddled with each other, as if they want to step on others The body climbed up, trying to float to the surface of the water with strength, but in the end they could only cling to each other, sinking deeper and deeper, and no one could touch the bright sky above their heads.

——This must be the legendary "water ghost"!

Ruan Mudeng suddenly remembered the sound transmission talisman he had received from Xiao Xiao the night he first came to this island.

At that time, his master once warned him, "The Feng Shui on this island is very problematic, so be careful when entering the water"!

Chapter 23, 07, Sea Tomb [-]

With his limited knowledge of Feng Shui, after a little pondering, he can see that this water area is definitely not a good place.

The water is always cloudy, and this place is located in the southeast of the small island, which belongs to a depression in the whole bay, surrounded by sharp reefs on three sides, shaped like a shrimp cage, with the opening facing north, and Due to the shelter of the cliffs, there is little time for direct sunlight throughout the year, and the underwater is full of shipwrecks. I don’t know how many people died here.

--How to do?

The young man vigorously kicked his legs a few times, and he was about to reach Shu Yao.

At this moment Shu Yao had already passed out, his hands and feet were hanging limply, and the human-shaped black figure pulling his ankle had climbed up to his chest, like an unfolded black sack, almost completely enveloping the prey's petite body.

Ruan Mudeng didn't think he could snatch people back from these water ghosts by just swimming there, but the time a person can last underwater is only 2 minutes, if he couldn't rescue people immediately, he would either have to Watching a person die in vain before his eyes, or he would have to be dragged down to be buried with him.

Before he had time to think, he had already reached out and grabbed Shu Yao's arm.

This pull immediately made him scream inwardly—the arm felt cold and slippery, and it weighed a thousand pounds, as if what he was pulling was not a living human being a minute and a half ago, but a stuffed animal. dead bodies soaked in lead.

At this moment, the other two arms stretched out towards him and grabbed Shu Yao's arm.

Ruan Mudeng looked aside, and he could tell from the person's clothes that they were two staff members of the program group. They must have seen that something happened here, and hurriedly jumped down to save the person.

Those who dare to go into the water to save people are very confident in their water skills.

The two people who came to help were natives of Qiongzhou. They grew up by the sea. One of them was qualified as a dive guide and had been freediving for several years.

But the two of them also quickly noticed the abnormality that Ruan Mudeng had experienced before—Shu Yao's 168 cm body weighs 110 catties, and he was soaked in buoyant salt water. With their strength, they couldn't pull people up even a centimeter, but they fell straight down like they were dragging a heavy weight.

The two staff members looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion and horror.

These two families are fishermen who have relied on the sea for generations.

People who have lived by the sea for a long time grew up listening to their elders talking about the rumors and taboos of the sea. They all have some complicated awe of the sea. The moment they notice something strange, they have already involuntarily developed rich associations in their minds. .

Even if they don't have discerning eyes, they can't see the terrifying black shadows falling on Shu Yao's body, but this abnormal situation alone is enough to make them terrified, and they almost can't help but want to let go of the cold The corpse-like young boy was thrown away!

At this moment, another figure brushed past Ruan Mudeng, stretched out a hand, squeezed the young man's shoulder, then dived down quickly, swam under several people, and reached for Shu Yao's feet.

Ruan Mudeng opened his eyes wide.

The person who dived down was his master Xiao Xiao!

In the eyes of wisdom, the man was wrapped in a fiery red halo, his soft hair floated and swayed with the water waves, and the thin shirt and trousers were attached to his body, vigorous and vigorous like a dazzling fish.

There was a layer of reddish blood on his right hand, mixed with a faint smell of sulfur, it wiped from Shu Yao's chest, all the way to his ankle.

Those ferocious black shadows clinging to their prey, when touched by Xiao Xiao's palm, shrank and twisted sharply like leeches sprinkled with salt water, and fell from Shu Yao's chest, thighs, and ankles one after another. Melting into the cascading shadows of the shipwreck below.

The three people who grabbed Shu Yao's arm felt the weight in their hands suddenly lighten at this moment, it was as if a hot air balloon had removed all the sandbags, and they no longer felt the heavy weight.

They didn't have time to think about it, they immediately paddled and kicked their legs, and dragged them towards the surface of the water.
