"At that time, I was only eight years old. One day, my second and third senior brothers caught a rabbit from the back mountain. I saw that I liked it and kept it with me. I fed her, bathed and combed her hair every day. Somehow The rabbit slipped out that day, and I followed all the way to catch it back."

"The rabbit lived in the mountains, and I was used to running all over the mountains and plains. I couldn't catch up with it at all. I was so focused on staring at the rabbit that I didn't have time to worry about the surrounding situation. As a result, I accidentally fell into the river. "

"At that time, I was still young, and I panicked all of a sudden. I choked in a hurry and grabbed a branch on the river. I didn't dare to move. I waited until it was dark before I was given by the fifth senior brother who was worried and came to the mountain to look for me. I took it back, and since then I have not dared to get too close to the river." Xun Youling finished the story in a muffled voice.

"Isn't this an accident? What do you care about?" Ji Xinxi didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so there's nothing wrong with it. It was just an accident, but she was a little surprised that Xun Youling was still there. When she was so innocent, thinking about the little Xun Youling hugging the rabbit, she couldn't help but curl her lips upwards.

Xun Nagan suddenly opened his fan, opened his mouth and said, "She's embarrassed to say it's because, as long as she stood up straight at that time, she would find that the river was not deep at all, at best it only reached her chest, but she hung like a monkey. On that branch, I dare not even look at it."

"Old man, I've said it all. At that time, I was hanging on a tree, and I couldn't see how deep the river was, okay?" Xun Youling said with a red face. Her master and senior brother made fun of her.

Ji Xinxi was amused by the words, and patted Xun Youling's shoulder with a suppressed smile, as if to say, don't explain, I understand.

The corner of Xun Youling's mouth twitched twice, turned his head away from Ji Xinxi's disgusting look, and gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "The most hateful thing is that rabbit, I want to wait until it gets fatter, I braised it in soy sauce, I bought all the materials, but it ran away."

"..." So you cherish it so much for this reason?It's no wonder that the rabbit slipped away so fast, Ji Xinxi shook his head, it seems that Xun Youling is still the same Xun Youling, she was overthinking just now.

During this small talk, the boat had already reached the depths of the cave, and the river here began to widen. Xun Youling asked impatiently, "Master, how long will it take to reach the destination?"

Before Xun Nagan could answer, the boat shook for a while. Xun Youling, who was already sensitive, held Ji Xinxi's hand and shouted, "What's wrong? What's the situation?"

Zhang Chenghu, who was at the helm of the bow over there, also staggered, obviously unprepared for such an incident, but he was experienced after all, and quickly lowered his body's center of gravity to stabilize his figure, and used the boat pole to temporarily stop the boat , and then frowned and half-kneeled to check the situation in the water.

"The boat is fine. It must have been accidentally rubbed against some dark rock just now. I didn't pay attention. Let's continue..." Halfway through Zhang Chenghu's words, the boat shook violently again.

This one was more violent than the previous one. The bow of the boat was shifted nearly 45 degrees to the left. Standing on the bow, Zhang Chenghu Haoxuan almost fell into the river. He immediately knelt down on the deck and supported the deck with his hands. Stabilizing his figure, he also exclaimed in surprise: "It doesn't make sense, I haven't had time to start the boat just now, something under the boat is colliding with the boat!"

The other three also noticed something was wrong. Xun Naqian frowned tightly and pulled off the searchlight hanging on the bow to search back and forth on the water. Ji Xinxi also wanted to take out the flashlight in his backpack to check the situation together, but Xun You Ling held her right hand tightly, and she raised her eyes to see that Xun Youling's face was pale and her lips were even pursed into a straight line.

Seeing her like this, Ji Xinxi had no choice but to hold her hand back. In order to make her posture more comfortable, she didn't sit down at all, but knelt down beside Xun Youling, took out the mobile phone in her pocket, and used the flashlight of the mobile phone. According to the situation around.

Suddenly, a slight sound of water rang in Ji Xinxi's ears, she immediately turned her head to look, and there were only circles of ripples on the water surface. Ling suddenly said, "Over there!"

The three of them followed her gaze, and sure enough, they saw two green light spots suddenly lit up about three meters away from the stern, as if a pair of eyes were peeping at you quietly underwater, making people look at you. I just feel a hair in my heart.

Xun Nagan's searchlight and Ji Xinxi's flashlight shone at the same time, but as soon as the light touched the place where the green light was shining, the light disappeared instantly under the water, and only a small cluster of water splashes flashed by. Xin Xi immediately thought of the splash of water she saw before, which was similar to the flashing trajectory this time. Could it be that this underwater thing has been following them since before?

"Master Dao, what was that just now?" Zhang Chenghu had never seen such a scene before. At this moment, in his eyes, Xun Nagan was the only reliable person. He approached Xun Nagan and asked, his eyes still Quickly glance left and right.

Xun Naqian remained silent, he had never encountered such a situation when he came here before, otherwise he would not have brought everyone in without warning, but Zhang Chenghu is an ordinary person, so he had to try his best at this time. Soothing: "Don't worry, something must have hit the boat. There are four of us on the boat, and we are afraid that the underwater thing will fail!"

Zhang Chenghu felt that what Xun Nagan said was reasonable, he was an old man after all, but now he was not as calm as the two girls on Ji Xin's side. Take a look.

Now things have reached a deadlock. The few of them are on the boat, and the lights in their hands are very conspicuous in this cave. For the underwater things, they are shining human-shaped targets, but the underwater things are moving strangely, and they can't catch them at all. Live in the opponent's position.

Ji Xinxi thought for a while and put away his mobile phone, then pulled out the engineering shovel and held it in his hand. At this time, the searchlight in Xun Nagan's hand was enough. Now Xun Youling's ability is greatly reduced. After a while, the boat really capsized, and she had to be careful not to let her and herself get separated.

There is no way out of such a stalemate, Xun Naqian handed the searchlight in his hand to Zhang Chenghu, and asked him to take care of his own light, then he took out a talisman from his coat pocket, chanted the spell silently, and threw it out into the distance .

The talisman burned in mid-air, and then fell into the lake. It was supposed to extinguish the flame when it came into the water. Not only did it not go out, but after entering the water, the flames burst into flames, and then exploded under the water, arousing a fire more than one meter high. splash.

Xun Nagan's hand made Zhang Chenghu beside him dumbfounded, he stared at the water with his mouth open and could not speak, but Xun Nagan over there kept playing five talismans in a row, and the boat flew instantly. All around is the sound of the river bursting.

Because of the environment, Xun Youling's nerves are stretched like a string, and she will catch her immediately if there is any disturbance. She saw a half-meter-long black snake in one of the splashes that exploded. , the snake's eyes are the faint green in the water just now.

After being reminded by Xun Youling, other people also saw the snake, and the explosion of the talisman just now did not cause much damage to it, and it disappeared instantly after falling back into the water.

Knowing what the other party was, he felt less fear. Even Zhang Chenghu heaved a sigh of relief, and opened his mouth and said, "It turned out to be a water snake. It was a false alarm. Water snakes are most likely to nest in places like this where there is no light."

His face softened, but he saw that the expressions of the other three people were even worse. He couldn't help asking curiously: "What's wrong with you? It's just a water snake, so it shouldn't be like this. Those few blows just now should have scared it away, right?"

Ji Xinxi took a look at Xun Youling's situation, and then explained to Zhang Chenghu: "You also saw how big the snake was just now. How could such a big snake weigh our boat hundreds of catties?" Crashing crookedly, obviously there is more than one underwater, and the snake is very vengeful, now..."

At this point Ji Xinxi stopped talking, Zhang Chenghu was still wondering why Ji Xinxi stopped talking suddenly, and the meaning of the other party's words suddenly came to his mind, as if to confirm his conjecture, he saw Dense green dots lit up on the lake around the boat they were on.

The countless green light spots made people feel goosebumps.

"Dao, what should the Taoist priest do now?" Zhang Chenghu held the searchlight in his arms, and his voice trembled when he spoke.

"Pick up your boat pole, and we'll slip away when we see the right moment." Xun Naqian said with a sullen face.

Zhang Chenghu swallowed, grabbed the convenient boat pole with one hand, held the searchlight with one hand, widened his eyes and pricked up his ears, ready to listen to Xun Nagan's orders at any time. At this time, he began to feel a little lucky that it wasn't his father who came Otherwise, I might not be able to hold on right now.

The green light spots under the water converged from all around to the left side of the hull, reflecting the entire lake surface into a miserable green. Ji Xixi stood up and shouted, "No! They are going to collide with the boat!!!"

Xun Nagan also thought of this, and threw a series of talismans in his hand at the place where the green light converged, and there were continuous explosions, and the waves caused by the huge explosion hit the ship, pushing the ship out some distance.

The explosion of white water covered everyone's eyes. In the chaos, it could be seen that the explosion of the talisman still dispelled some of the black snakes, but there were still many black snakes gathered together and launched a fierce attack on the hull.

Due to the disruption of the formation, the collisions became wave after wave. Under the fine collisions, the shaking of the ship's hull became more and more violent, and it seemed that it was about to capsize.

Xun Youling held Ji Xinxi's hand tightly with one hand, and the side of the boat with the other, and closed his eyes to wait for the moment when he fell into the water. But unexpectedly, the boat that had capsized to the right was suddenly pushed back heavily. Then someone took her into his arms with one hand.
