Ancient Invasion [End Times]

170 days after the invasion

The baby sharks remained motionless in the water.

There were still tears on Luo Xiaonan's eyelashes. When he heard Lin Qian mention those baby sharks, he looked over and whispered, "Brother Lin Qian, let's go. Are you still able to swim?"

Lin Qian responded, the wound on his body was still bleeding, and Luo Xiaonan covered it with his hand and held it down.

He took off the clothes on his body, tore them into strips with a broken iron rod, and simply tied them on the wound, and tied a hemostatic knot.

"Take a deep breath." Lin Qian said to Luo Xiaonan.

Before he went into the water again, he took another look at the school of young sharks behind him.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he was surprised to find that the sharks that were just parked in the water were turned upside down one by one at the moment.

--died?

Lin Qian looked at Luo Xiaonan, Luo Xiaonan looked even more bewildered than him.

He didn't say much, he hugged Luo Xiaonan, and the two looked at each other and took three deep breaths quickly - spit out more carbon dioxide in the body, inhaled more sufficient oxygen, and then quickly plunged into the water.

Lin Qian and Luo Xiaonan crossed the corner of the promenade, swam up the safety ladder submerged in seawater, and boarded the cabin on the first floor in one breath.

The cabin on the first floor is the closest to the escape route, and next to it is the bottom of the engine room.

When Lin Qian and Luo Xiaonan arrived here, they didn't see anyone around.

"Sister Xu Ying and the others?" Luo Xiaonan looked around and asked Lin Qian uneasily, "Did they also run into those..."

Hearing this, Lin Qian interrupted Luo Xiaonan, and comforted him, "Xu Ying and the others will be fine, they all know the route, and must be on their way to meet us, maybe it's just that the wall of water just took them further away .”

"Sooner or later, he will join us, don't worry." Lin Qian said.

He raised his head and looked around, picked up Luo Xiaonan and put him on an iron frame: "I'll go and see the surroundings, you stay on it, and call me if you have something to do."

Luo Xiaonan nodded obediently. He frowned, frowned, stared at the blood-stained cloth on Lin Qian's body, and said in a low voice, "Brother's injury..."

Lin Qian lowered his head and glanced at his body. To be honest, the pain from the wound had gradually become dull. The only troublesome thing was that the blood loss made him exhausted and dizzy.

"It's okay, I'll be back soon." Lin Qian said.

The cabin on the first floor was flooded, perhaps because it was close to the engine room. The degree of sealing here was higher, and the situation of water leakage and water seepage was greatly improved.

Coupled with the sinking of the ship, Lin Qian guessed that maybe the first floor and the bottom of the ship were still floating on the sea.

Lin Qian walked to the engine room, where the water only reached his ankles, and most of the instruments were firmly fixed to the ground, and did not fall everywhere due to the overturning of the ship.

After briefly looking around, he quickly returned to Luo Xiaonan's side.

"It's not a big problem." Lin Qian let out a breath and said with a smile, "Just wait for Team Duan and Sister Xu Ying to meet up."

The escape route was blocked by all kinds of debris that fell down. Lin Qian tried to clear it a few times, but he couldn't use up his strength.

Luo Xiaonan's eyes lit up when he heard what Lin Qian said.

He nodded vigorously, moved his buttocks and sat on the side, letting Lin Qian climb up too.

"Brother, come up and rest for a while." Luo Xiaonan looked at Lin Qian.

Lin Qian paused, nodded slightly, supported the iron frame, turned over and sat beside Luo Xiaonan.

He leaned back slightly, stretched out, and let out a breath: "I take a breath."

Luo Xiaonan responded: "Brother, sleep for a while, Nan Nan will help my brother watch, and wake up later."

Lin Qian laughed: "Are you still sleeping in this situation?"

He rubbed Luo Xiaonan's head twice, saying that he didn't need to sleep, he was in good spirits.

Luo Xiaonan looked at Lin Qian's pale and bloodless lips worriedly, and stretched out his hand to gently hold Lin Qian's palm.

Lin Qian looked at Luo Xiaonan in surprise, the child's palm was actually warm.

Soaking in the cold sea for so long, even someone like Lin Qian couldn't bear it, but he didn't expect that the little guy's palms were warm and soft, and when they were pressed against his palms, it seemed that his whole body began to warm up.

Lin Qian gradually felt that his eyelids were getting heavy. Before he could say anything, he heard Luo Xiaonan sticking to his ear, and said softly, "Brother, go to sleep, Nan Nan is here."

The last thing Lin Qian saw before falling into the darkness was Luo Xiaonan leaning against him, soft and harmless.

Luo Xiaonan supported Lin Qian, and leaned gently on the iron frame behind him. He sat beside Lin Qian, looking at the sloping corridor at the other end with his big dark eyes.

It was flooded up to the waist, and the water level was coming up little by little.

"Sister Xu Ying..." Luo Xiaonan murmured softly.

On Xu Ying's side, the four of them were trapped in the belly of the table. When they saw that the water flow under them was no longer so fast, they looked at each other and jumped down.

"Even if they break up with Team Duan, we still have to go to the cabin on the first floor. They will definitely take that as their destination in the end." Xu Ying said while pressing the wound on his shoulder with one hand.

Zhang Jiuzhang nodded in agreement. He swam to Xu Ying's side, supported Xu Ying and said, "This way, the movement efficiency will be faster."

Xu Ying froze her body when she heard this, and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Du Jingshu pursed her lips, greeted Zhang Jiuzhang and said, "Come here, sister Xu Ying has a shoulder injury, and you will get hurt if you hold it like this."

Zhang Jiuzhang glanced at the wound on Xu Ying's shoulder and nodded.

A group of people swam to the cabin near the first floor.

Du Nanrong was swimming, and suddenly he laughed "puchi", and couldn't help hiding his calf.

"What's the matter, Dad? It's weird that you're laughing here suddenly..." Du Jingshu turned to Du Nanrong with a look of surprise.

Du Nanrong scratched his hair and laughed dryly: "It may be something like aquatic plants in the water, which rubbed against my legs. It's so itchy, I can't hold it back."

Du Jingshu twitched the corner of her mouth.

Her father was very ticklish. When she was a child, she would play with her father with a feather duster, scratching Du Nanrong to the ground, the kind who burst into tears.

Zhang Jiuzhang rolled his eyes to the sky, a little speechless.

Swimming forward for another distance, Du Jingshu also felt something brushed by her legs. It was thin and long, as if it was wrapped around her legs. She frowned, kicked her legs hard twice and kicked them away. .

Du Jingshu thought it was some sundries in the cabin, so she didn't worry about it, and concentrated on paying attention to the surrounding water surface, reminding the people behind to be careful of those sundries that hit along the current.

"Hiss." Du Jingshu took a deep breath, frowned and kicked her calf impatiently twice, and couldn't help asking Du Nanrong in a low voice, "Dad, do you feel that there are some threads that are always wrapped around your feet?"

"From time to time." Du Nanrong said, he couldn't help reaching out his hand underwater while speaking, and scratched his itchy calf twice.

Du Jingshu nodded, and she felt relieved when she heard Du Nanrong said that this was the case. Along the way, she was afraid that every time she encountered some special situation, she would fail to the point of explosion.

Zhang Jiuzhang supported Xu Ying to swim forward, slightly behind the father and daughter in front.

When the swim was getting closer, he suddenly stopped and frowned suddenly.

Xu Ying soon realized something. She looked at Zhang Jiuzhang and asked in a low voice, "You felt it too?"

Zhang Jiuzhang nodded slightly, and hurriedly said, "Wait for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and plunged into the water.

Seeing this situation, Du Nanrong and Du Jingshu were taken aback for a moment, and immediately became nervous.

The underwater vision was extremely cloudy, and all kinds of sundries and garbage were floating in the water. Zhang Jiuzhang looked around, but found nothing.

He got out of the water suspiciously, wiped his face and said, "There's nothing, keep going."

Du Jingshu breathed a sigh of relief.

What Zhang Jiuzhang didn't see was that clusters of slender, pink-white long beards were slowly swinging in the water in the drowsy place underwater, cunningly hidden under the cover of debris.

Longbeard soon swung out again, the only difference was that it was followed by groups of small sharks with fangs.

——It was far larger than what Lin Qian encountered, as if the shark eggs in those seaweed balls had all hatched.

Gray and black baby sharks quickly swam towards Zhang Jiuzhang and his party from bottom to top, with clusters of slender worms parasitizing in their mouths or gills.

After repeated trials, the young shark group finally established a target to attack.

Xu Ying suddenly yelled "ah", and was suddenly dragged underwater.

"Sister Xu Ying!" Du Jingshu's pupils shrank fiercely.

"You stay where you are." Du Nanrong said hastily, and immediately plunged into the water with Zhang Jiuzhang.

Du Nanrong opened his eyes slightly, looked at the bottom of the water in shock, he couldn't hold his breath for a while, and a bunch of blisters came out.

Xu Ying was dragged by a dozen small sharks to the depths of the water.

What was even more shocking was that the small sharks were surrounded by those slender parasites, which looked like they were still alive, swaying and stretching in the water, making one's scalp numb.

Du Nanrong quickly surfaced, took another breath, looked around, but found that Du Jingshu was not where he was at all.

Du Nanrong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly plunged into the water, only to see Du Jingshu and Zhang Jiuzhang had already swam below.

Xu Ying's body soon had several bloody holes, and the long beards on the little shark's body tried to get into Xu Ying's five holes in every possible way.

Xu Ying choked up a lot of water, and thrust the dagger into the little shark's body, but it didn't seem to have much effect.

Her vision gradually became blurred, and her body was dragged down uncontrollably.

She saw Du Jingshu, Zhang Jiuzhang, and Du Nanrong swimming towards her. The little girl's short hair was floating in the water, and she opened her mouth as if calling her name.

Du Jingshu's short hair was cut by Xu Ying when she was at the survivor's station. The little girl said that long hair was too cumbersome, but sister Xu Ying's neat short hair was more beautiful, so she asked Xu Ying to cut it into a similar style.

Seeing Du Jingshu's appearance, Xu Ying blinked slowly, thinking that if she had a chance in the future, she must warn the little girl not to call people's names in the water, it would be a waste of effort.

Du Jingshu and Zhang Jiuzhang soon swam to the vicinity of Xu Ying.

The group of small sharks around felt like they were going crazy when they smelled blood, and their targets suddenly extended to Du Jingshu and the others.

Xu Ying's vision became more and more blurred, but she saw that in the blood in front of her eyes, everyone came because of her, but they were caught in the bite of sharks.

She clenched her fists tightly.

……

She clearly heard her heartbeat, which changed from fast to slow, and it seemed that it took a long time before it jumped with a "boom".

Xu Ying thought blankly, what happened to her.
