Chapter 139 Mysterious and Strange Tales · Sacrifice River

This smile came suddenly and strangely, and it was even more abrupt when it appeared on Mrs. Liu's old wrinkled face like tree bark.It's like a raw collage, eccentric and out of place.

Su Ji didn't have a chance to think deeply about the meaning behind the smile of Mrs. Liu, so she fell deeply into the dark and icy river.

Holding his breath, Su Ji tightly clenched the small bead in his hand.

[Rare props: water avoidance beads]

[Explanation of props: This is a prop made by the main god of the game inspired by the treasures in the ancient legends of Huaguo.With it, the player can breathe freely in the water. 】

[This item is a consumable item, the number of remaining uses: 1]

[Use time: 24 hours. 】

【use or not? 】

Su Ji chose yes without hesitation.

In just a moment, his whole body was covered by a layer of waterproof air bubbles, and the oppressive feeling of suffocation suddenly eased.

When he opened his eyes, what he saw was a deep and bottomless river.In the slightly turbid water, except for the aquatic plants that drift past from time to time, there are no other creatures to be seen.

What about Shaofeng people?

Could it be that he was taken away by the "River God" because he came a step late?

Worried that something happened to his companion, Su Ji immediately searched for someone.

He took out the holy cross sword to act as a lighting lamp, and the silver-white light beam swept around the dark water bottom.However, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't see Shao Feng's figure.

The cold and silence filled this deep river bottom, which was palpitatingly oppressive.

Clenching the sword in his hand, Su Ji calmly looked at the surrounding environment.After a while, he resolutely dived down.

The deeper you swim, the more aquatic plants in the river, and occasionally you can see a few gray wild fish walking through the grass.Dots of whiteness are exposed in the river bottom covered by silt, which seem to be the remains of the bride of the river god who has drowned in the water for many years.

Those remains seemed to have been deliberately arranged, surrounding a huge copper bell with an upward opening, connected end to end, one after another, and finally formed a ring shape.

Oh no, it can't quite be called a ring either.

Because the circle still lacks a piece and is not closed.

Su Ji counted, and there are a total of 11 corpses here.Judging by the size of the gap in the circle, it seems that one person can fill it up.And this vacancy was obviously reserved for Shao Feng who had just been thrown into the river.

One bride in three years, excluding the girl who was thrown into the river by villager Li Daitao, there are 12 in total.

For a moment, some kind of chilling speculation suddenly came to mind.

Perhaps, the mastermind behind the scenes is using these river god brides to form a formation.Although it is not yet known exactly what the function of the circle of bones is, he imagines that once the vacancy is filled, something very serious will happen.

Just when Su Ji wanted to go downstream to destroy the circular formation, his feet suddenly tightened.As if being entangled in aquatic plants, the ankles were icy and cold.

Looking down, a group of black water plants was rippling at the feet.

Su Ji frowned, and when he raised the holy cross sword to cut off the water plants that were in the way, the black mass moved away.

I saw a bony hand clutching his ankle tightly.The thing raised its head, revealing a pale, swollen face terribly soaked in water.

It was only then that Su Ji realized that the dark mass just now was not a water plant at all, but the hair of a water ghost!

Subconsciously, he raised the holy cross sword in his hand and slashed at that thing.

The water ghost seemed to sense danger, and immediately let go of his hand and floated back.

Su Ji swung his sword in the air, and wanted to catch up and make another strike, but saw more than a dozen water ghosts appearing behind him at some point.

They spontaneously surrounded Su Ji,

Judging by their attire, they should be the drowned villagers of Linghe Village.For some reason, they didn't seem to want him to get close to the circle, but because they were afraid of the sword in Su Ji's hand, they didn't dare to get any closer, so they could only surround him and stare closely.

For a while, the two sides were deadlocked.

At this moment, the originally calm river bottom suddenly began to accelerate.I saw a strange vortex appeared in the center of the circular formation made of bones!

For a moment, the nearby fish and shrimp were disturbed and fled in all directions.And those water ghosts turned around and ran away as if they saw something terrible.

What the hell is this?

Su Ji wanted to stay and find out, but his left hand, which did not hold a sword, was suddenly pulled by someone.Turning his head to look, he caught a glimpse of a red dress and a silver-white fish tail faintly shining under the red dress.

If this is not Shao Feng, who is it?

Before he had time to ask about the other party's previous whereabouts, Su Ji was dragged by Shao Feng to swim wildly.

Because behind them, the weird vortex became bigger and bigger, like a tornado, the strong suction generated by the rotation of the vortex constantly dragged the creatures in the river to the center of the circle, and muddied the entire waters Unbearable.

In the chaos, Su Ji saw that many of the water ghosts who surrounded him before had been sucked away by the vortex, and there was not even a chance to resist and escape.

Hearing the shrill screams of the water ghosts behind them, the two dared not stop and struggled to swim out.

However, the turbulent water flow was like a pair of ruthless hands, constantly dragging them in the opposite direction.Like the huge suction of 520 glue, it stuck tightly to the bodies of the two, trying to pull them into the abyss of hell.

The incident happened suddenly, and Su Ji didn't even have the chance to go to the game store to buy props such as accelerators, so he could only use his body to expend more strength to fight against the sudden torrent.

"Hang on! We're doomed if we get sucked in!"

Shao Feng gritted his teeth tightly, because his face became a little ferocious for a while because of the excessive force.

After an unknown amount of time, the vortex in the center of the circle gradually stopped.Feeling the slowing down of the water flow around them, the two gradually stopped fleeing.

The river in front of me has returned to calm, except that the water is a little muddy, everything is the same as before the incident.

Sensing that the danger was lifted, Shao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, "MD, labor and management almost peed out of fear just now."

Withdrawing his gaze, Su Ji looked at Shao Feng beside him, "Where did you go just now? I searched for a long time after entering the water and thought you were caught by the river god."

"I'm sorry." Shao Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, "Actually, I met a water ghost not long after I entered the water. You also know that I was a little afraid of these things, and then..."

"Then you fainted from fright?" Su Ji smiled in a half-smile.

"How can you! You underestimate your brother Feng too much!"

Seeing Shao Feng move his hands and do a Wing Chun posture, he boasted: "Then your brother and I picked up the frying pan and prepared to do a physical move to drive away ghosts."

"..." Su Ji: "Get to the point."

"Oh." Shao Feng withdrew his hand in a lack of interest and said, "I was going to fight that water ghost, but suddenly I heard a voice saying, 'someone has come down, the formation in this river is about to become , must be stopped quickly' and the like."

Hearing this, Su Ji couldn't help but think of the strange circular formation that he saw at the bottom of the river earlier, and the weird vortex that suddenly appeared and sucked the water ghost away.Then he asked: "Who told you these words? The water ghost?"

"seems not."

"Who is that?"

"This..." This question seemed to stump Shao Feng. He scratched his head and tried to remember, but paused for a while.

Su Ji: "Remember?"

Shao Feng: "I don't remember."

"..." Su Ji: "Can we rely on some clues at critical moments?"

"It's really not my fault." Shao Feng felt aggrieved, "The voice appeared too suddenly. I was busy dealing with that water ghost at the time, so I didn't notice it. Besides, the voice only appeared once, and then again It didn't show up either."

"Ok."

Since Shao Feng couldn't tell the reason, Su Ji didn't intend to get entangled in this matter, and just asked: "Then how did you find me just now?"

Hearing this, Shao Feng's expression suddenly became lively again, "I was planning to fight that water ghost for [-] rounds, but I didn't expect that guy to suddenly abandon me, turn around and run away!"

"I thought it was strange at the time. This water ghost is not Big Big Wolf, so he shouldn't have a stress reaction when he sees my frying pan, right?"

"Then, I followed curiously. Then I saw you surrounded by some water ghosts..."

Speaking of this, Shao Feng glanced at Su Ji subconsciously, and quickly said: "Brother, I originally planned to go up to help, but suddenly there was a vortex in the water, and then I saw those water ghosts running away in fright. When I was on the way, I guessed that the thing was probably not a good thing, so I dragged you away."

Su Ji narrowed his eyes when he heard the words.

Although there are not enough details, after listening to what Shao Feng said, he can probably guess what happened.

Perhaps it was because he approached the formation that those water ghosts wanted to stop him.

The reason why the water ghost in front of Shao Feng turned around suddenly was probably because he had received news from other water ghosts, so he rushed back to help.

As for the voice he heard, it should be a call for help from other water ghosts.

On this basis, he couldn't help guessing boldly that the reason why those water ghosts wanted to stop him just now was probably because they knew the danger of this formation and feared that he would die in vain.

Thinking of this, Su Ji paused.

In other words, I misunderstood their kindness just now?

……

If the first impression really kills people, with that kind of scary face, who would have thought that these water ghosts are not from the villain camp.

Not only did he not harm anyone, but he even came to help them. He is like a living Lei Feng in the ghost world!

Thinking of those water ghosts swept away by the vortex, Su Ji rarely felt guilty.

But this feeling of guilt only stayed for a moment, because soon, Su Ji thought of another important thing——

Since the water ghosts would choose to stop him, it meant they must know something.

That being the case, perhaps he could learn from them the true secrets about the river god of Linghe village and the formation under the river.

Thinking about it, Su Ji calmly turned his gaze to the partly hidden white corner of the clothes behind the reef not far away.

Seeing the corners of Su Ji's lips raised suddenly, Shao Feng felt a chill down his spine for some reason.

The familiar feeling came again.

Before he could open his mouth to ask Su Ji what kind of idea he thought of, he saw the person in front of him swimming forward on his own.

Looking in the direction indicated by Su Ji's gaze, Shao Feng suddenly seemed to understand something.

Behind the reef, the water ghost Atu is nervously staring at the bright red figure in the distance.

The boss said that today the village will hold a river god sacrifice, and then there will be new brides who will fall into the river and become part of the altar formation.In order to prevent the circle from being completed, the boss asked them to stay underwater at all times.

In the beginning, he did indeed see a bride in a red dress.Originally, she greeted her happily, but she never thought that the bride in front of her would suddenly grow a fish tail!

It's scary!

He is not as courageous as Shi Shi, and he can still insist on staying there after seeing the bride turned into a fish demon.

He turned around and ran away.

I wanted to go back to join the boss first, but I never thought that the formation at the bottom of the river would suddenly activate!

He didn't even have time to meet the boss, so he was trapped here.

After finally waiting for the formation to stop, who would have thought that they would meet that female fish demon again.

What bad luck is this!

Just as Ah Tu was crazily scolding his mother in his heart, a sentence came from his ear——

"Excuse me, little water ghost, can I bother you?"
