warm bed for the loser

【Shi Ao:】

There was something in the water that we never expected.

This kind of pitch-black water with no transparency actually has living creatures?

No wonder the river is so difficult to cross. This is simply the most solid barrier in Death Valley, standing in front of the outside world, blocking all footsteps.

In this way, the plan of making a raft to row over is not feasible. If we enter the water, wouldn't it be the lunch of the water monster?

What a headache!

The atmosphere in the team today is obviously not very good. Unlike before, they were laughing and having fun while suffering, and their strength and patience when encountering difficulties are gone.

After going through so many hardships, seeing that there might be a land of dreams across the shore, but he couldn't make it through, and he was a little depressed and hopeless at the moment.

Yin Qi searched for the traces of last night along the river, trying to find some clues, but the brown sand had already been washed away by the water waves, leaving nothing behind.

Everyone evacuated to a safe place a little far from the shore. In broad daylight, there was not even a single ripple on the river surface, as calm as if last night was just a dream.

I had a headache: "They said it was a very big thing that grew in the water. Could it be a big fish?"

Xiao Bai asked worriedly, "Will the fish go ashore to catch their prey?"

"Uh……"

Zhuo Xi: "This thing is hiding in a dark place. The water is too dark to see anything from the outside. If we can't get rid of it, it will be very difficult for us to cross the river."

Sa Feng: "It won't go ashore, how to solve it."

Yin Qi: "Then find a way to get it up!"

This one is difficult, we don't even know what it is.

Everyone fell into deep thought.

I sighed bitterly, rubbed my hungry belly, and habitually climbed up the dead tree on the bank, and threw small stones into the water in a bored way, "I finally got here, and another big problem came up. It's long, the hope is slim..."

With one sound after another, the small stones caused ripples on the river surface, dizzying in all directions.

Not far away, a black tail crossed silently and submerged into the bottom of the river in the blink of an eye.

I rubbed my eyes, could it be vertigo?

I tried and threw a few small stones vigorously, breaking the silence of the river.

The ripples spread layer by layer until they disappeared, but after waiting for a long time, there was still nothing.

Disappointed, I squatted back on the branch again, broke off the twig and threw it into the water.

I looked down at the river below me, there was no reflection of me in the water, nothing could be reflected in the water, it was really like being dead.

Suddenly, a terrifying scarlet mouth popped out of the dark and cold water without any warning. Inside was densely packed with fangs. It rushed out of the water like a shell and swallowed me straight.

The hairs all over my body stood on end, and I almost lost my courage. The speed at which the monster sprang out made it impossible for me to dodge in time. In an instant, I could smell the stench from its mouth that was close at hand.

When I was completely stupid waiting to die on the tree, a black figure rushed over like lightning and knocked me down. The sound of colliding.

I was thrown to the ground by the black panther, and my head was smashed like gold stars. There was a loud sound of falling water in the river, and the monster failed to hunt and fell back into the water.

My breath was stuck in my throat and I couldn't let it go. I was hit by the black panther on the chest before I gasped heavily and breathed heavily.

"You, how are you?"

I don't believe his reaction speed will be so fast, all this happened in the blink of an eye.

"I saw its black tail."

"what?"

"Your stone attracted it, and became its object."

It turned out that he had guessed that the thing was going to eat me, so I couldn't help but yelled, "Then why don't you hurry up and call me down!"

"Did not have time."

What a stupid reason!

You can hit me in time, right?I think he must have done it on purpose, just to take the opportunity to bully me.

never mind!Anyway, they also saved me.

"That, thank you! You, you get off me first..."

The black panther climbed up, and a group of black panthers surrounded him.

【Silver Qi:】

"Are you all right?"

The big lion shook his head, "Do you see what it is?"

Gray Falcon frowned, "I've never seen this kind of thing before. It looks like a fish but it's not a fish. It has a particularly well-developed chest and a mouthful of fangs. It's really surprisingly big."

Zhuo Xi: "No matter what it is, it must be resolved. Our time is running out."

Yes, we're running out of time, and we can't last long without food.

"Lure it ashore and kill it!" Now it's the only way to fight.

The big lion blinked, "How about... I still squat on the tree?"

This time before I opened my mouth to scold, the black panther yelled angrily, "No way!"

Um?When did these two get along so well?

"It's useless for you to go again except to deliver food to the water monster." Sometimes he can really be fooled to death.

Gay, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "To deal with fish, we humans like to use fishing."

"Huh? Fishing? What's that?"

Gay raised the corner of his mouth, "A rope, a bait, a hook that can pierce its lips deeply."

Very vivid, I almost have a sense of the picture in my mind.

This is the scary thing about human beings. They can conquer waters they are not good at with a simple method, so it is really only a matter of time before they become the overlord of land.

I feel more and more that we made the right choice to escape here.

"But we don't have any of the things you said."

"Yes!" Gai affirmed.

"where?"

Gay took off several layers of robes on his body, and cut them into fine strands with a knife.

The clothes are very beautiful, and the thin silk thread is very valuable at first glance. Even though it has been eroded and stained by the wind and sand of the journey, it is still intact, and the lines on it still have a streamer.

The young man's slender fingers shuttled nimbly among the silk ribbons, twisted and tied them to tie knots, and connected the twisted ribbons into a rope.

"This kind of silk thread for tribute will not be broken. I wound it thick enough, and then..." He waved the sharp dagger in his hand, "This is our fishhook, as long as it is bent into a suitable arc, it will be our fishhook." The most perfect hook ever."

Sa Feng: "What about the bait?"

The big lion jumped out immediately, "I'll go!"

Black Panther frowned, "You can't! Let me do it."

The big lion stared: "Why can you do what I can?"

"You're so stupid."

"You are stupid!" The big lion jumped up, and angrily wanted to fight with the panther again.

Gay came out to stop them, "Stop arguing, the bait has already been chosen."

We looked at him together, "Who?"

He proudly raised his chin and pointed to himself, "Me! Is there anyone else who knows how to operate a dagger better than me?"

He stretched out his flexible five fingers, pressed against Shi Ao's thick paws for comparison, "Look, I'm more suitable."

I don't think it's safe, it's too risky.

"We tied a rope to the dagger, and once I got it, you all pulled it hard on the shore, and I'm sure we'll be able to subdue it."

I still think it's a bit too dangerous, Zhuo Xi disagrees, "If you do this, you will die."

Unexpectedly, Gay suddenly looked at me with a confident smile, "Yin Qi won't let me die, huh?"

"I'm not that capable."

How could he have the courage to trust a wolf so much.

Gay was very persistent, and had already tied the rope to the dagger with a dead knot, and started warming up on the shore.

I was speechless and had to call several others to discuss protection measures.

................................................

【White paper:】

This is a terrible fight.

The emaciated human teenager bravely jumped into the river, floating on the water and waiting for the prey to bite.

When I thought of a huge monster lurking under the water, waiting for an opportunity to stare at it, and it might pounce on me at any time, I was so frightened that I couldn't even breathe. The fear of the unknown is the most terrifying thing!

At this moment, I admire his courage so much!

Facing death, no one would not tremble, but with only a dagger with a hook and a life-saving rope tied around his waist, he jumped into it desperately!

I didn't expect that he, who was once as weak and deceitful as me, had transformed into such a brave young man at some point.

His white clothes floated on the water, like a blooming white lotus, blooming quietly like the most holy sacrifice.

Yin Qi and the others were divided into two teams and stood on the shore, staring unblinkingly, with the rope tightly in their mouths, ready to move at any time.

In just an instant, the white lotus disappeared and was dragged into the water by something.

We on the shore panicked, Yin Qi closed her eyes and silently counted the agreed time in her mind, cold sweat dripped down her forehead.

When I looked closely again, a huge ferocious beast had turned out of the water, and it opened its terrifying mouth and let out a gloomy growl from its throat.

Gay did it!

The other end of the rope has been firmly stuck in its throat and stuck on the mandible, and the whole rope is shaking as it struggles painfully.

The whiteness was rolling with the black shadow, gradually dyed red.

"Pull—" Yin Qi yelled, and hundreds of beasts bit the rope with their mouths and ran in the opposite direction at the same time.

The white shadow was quickly drawn closer, and when they approached the shore, Shi Ao and Hei Bao jumped into the water and swam towards the white shadow at high speed.

On the other side, the monster was slowly pulled closer by us at a speed visible to the naked eye, stopped at the shallows and struggled frantically. The huge force formed a counterweight to us, and it was faintly retreating into the water.

Gay was carried ashore by Shi Ao and Black Panther together, and he has become half a blood man, with dense bloody mouths all over his left shoulder.

Zhuo Xi hurried forward to support him and help him stop the bleeding.

The water and the shore were at an impasse for a moment, and the water monster was afraid to use force because of the pain, and we pulled it closer, but its huge body was too big, and it was difficult to pull it out with only this fragile fishhook .

"No, he's too heavy to pull out!" Yin Qi shouted.

"I'm coming!" Gray Falcon rushed towards the water, "I'll kill him in the water!"

"Come back!" Yin Qi yelled worriedly, "Wait until you pull it out a little more!"

Gray Falcon stopped in its tracks, obediently looking for an opportunity to rush in at any time.

Just when we had exhausted our strength and pulled desperately with our bodies flushed, another huge mouth protruded from the water, and its sharp teeth bit our rope, and the rope broke in an instant, and we Suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground, one by one piled up and fell into a ball.

The injured water monster was rescued by our companions, leaving us stunned.

Why do we think there is only one?

If there is not only one water monster in this water, but many of them...

Then our dreams will be completely ruined, and there will be no more hope...
