The years when I was Captain Jin

Chapter 98 Ghost Tugboat

"Look, what are these slimy bumpkins?"

At this moment, the waterway became narrower and narrower, and each of us could only bend down and squat on the boat, using the flashlight to see the surrounding environment clearly.

We found that there were clusters of dark gray dirt bumps on the rock walls on both sides.These bumpkins are densely packed, disgusting like malignant tumors stuck together.

The fat man scraped it off with a knife, but he couldn't scrape off the bumpkins.

The guide old man reminded us: "Master, this thing is hard. I accidentally fell on the wall just now, and my hand was scratched."

The fat man nodded and put away the paratrooper knife: "Could this be some kind of animal feces? After a long time of drying, it will be hard."

"It's possible, but if it's really feces, we're in danger..." Wang Yuanchao said solemnly.

Each of these bumpkins is about the size of four or five fists.If it was really pulled out by some animal, then the number of this animal is not only terrible, but also its size is not too small.

I picked up the kerosene lamp on the bow and took a look, only to find that the surface of these bumpkins has a layer of regular texture, at first glance, it looks like the snake skin of a boa constrictor.

"Wait! Don't touch this bumpkin, this thing seems to be moving."

Suddenly, Zhang Sanpao seemed to have discovered something, and he yelled at me and the fat man.

"Oh my god, isn't there a bug nest in this pile of dung?"

The fat man took a few steps back quickly, and I also took back the kerosene lamp.

Right now we don't know what's hidden in these bumpkins, if it's some deadly poisonous insect, it's over.

Plus, what happened to Uncle Ming and his party before, it is obvious that this waterway is not a good place, so I have no plans to explore the secrets of these bumpkins right now.

"Go on, old man, how far are we from the exit?" I asked.

"It's not that fast. I heard from a few kids that it takes an hour to get out of the He Shen Dao, and now we've just walked half way..." the old man said tremblingly.

It seemed that the two heads that came out of the water just now made him a little uneasy, and the old man persuaded the fat man again: "Sir, no one dared to go into the water in this river god since the last time the group of outsiders had an accident. Everyone sees dead people today." It means that the river god is still angry, why don't we go back first and wait until the village sacrifices are over before we start?"

But the old man's proposal was immediately rejected by Ma Rulong, and he commanded the boat to move forward with a sullen face.

For some reason, I always feel that the yellow muddy water under the boat has become a little rippling, and the ripples on the water surface are also a little messy.There seemed to be something else down there other than the ripples we made as we paddled!

And after turning a corner, I suddenly felt a gust of cold air sweeping towards me. The cold air gave me goosebumps all over my body in an instant.

The kerosene lamp was also blown out all of a sudden, and we were plunged into darkness. The sudden darkness shocked us all.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
And almost at the same time, there was a muffled sound in the darkness, the sound was a bit like the beating of a heart, and it was especially piercing in this claustrophobic waterway.

In the panic, I don't know who uttered a scream, which made my nerves tense all of a sudden!
When I turned on the flashlight, I saw more than a dozen amputated arms and legs, and about a dozen dead bodies, just floating on the water.

These corpses did not know what kind of attack they had suffered. Some had a huge hole in their chest, and some had half their bodies completely gone, and the internal organs inside were still clearly visible.

And the most weird thing is that somehow the water quality of this section of waterway becomes extremely clear after turning a corner.Various organs sunken under the water, eyeballs, and even a blue-purple intestine can be seen clearly.

I was terrified for a moment, and at this moment I yelled uncontrollably, and then grabbed the oar and propped it up to prevent it from moving on.

"Stop, stop!"

Ma Rulong also ordered loudly, it is definitely not unreasonable for so many corpses to appear here suddenly, if we pass by rashly, there is a high probability that we will end up like these corpses.

Almost everyone supported the rock walls on both sides, wanting the boat to stop.

The other subordinate brought by Ma Rulong grabbed the bumpkins so hard that blood came from their fingers.

It's just that all of this was in vain. The two boats seemed to have received a huge thrust, which made us move forward unconsciously.

"There is an undercurrent under the water!"

The old man was pale, and he shouted feebly.

This turn of events happened so suddenly, I never thought that so many things would happen after one turn.

The speed of the ship was getting faster and faster, and then it slammed into the pile of corpses.One corpse was hit in half by the boat, and all the viscera and intestines slipped into the water.

Trembling, I pulled out the Desert Eagle.

The man in the suit quickly grabbed one of Ma Rulong's subordinates, and stood in front of him like a shield.

Clang!
Our boat seemed to be pushed by something underwater, and it lost its balance instantly and turned over. I fell into the water first.

I choked on a few sips of water in a row, thinking that what I was drinking was all those colorful visceral intestines, I couldn't help but spit out stomach acid.

But the first reaction after nausea is to feel that I am finished!
I shook my wet hair, and then paddled the water firmly, not daring to relax at all.

Only then did I realize that although the boat carrying us had capsized, it was still moving forward. I suddenly felt a chill down my back.

Something is wrong, something is wrong!

Those corpses have been floating on the water without moving, only the boat is moving forward, which shows that it is not an undercurrent, but something under the water is dragging our boat.

Seeing that I was still in a daze, Zhang Sanpao grabbed my arm and pulled me onto the boat behind me. After getting on the boat, I slowly recovered.

"Don't worry about it so much, just show the guys! Since the underwater thing wants to lead us forward, it means there must be danger ahead."

Zhang Sanpao pulled up the people who fell into the water one by one, and then asked everyone to stand in place with each other, so as not to let the last life-saving boat capsize.Otherwise, even if we are fine, the skin will be soaked in ice water for an hour or two.

The underwater stuff dragged us on, all kinds of viscera slamming head-on towards the hull.

Right now, we seem to be advancing among the dead, surrounded by soaked and rotting corpses. The feeling is truly indescribable.

Also, there is one more question that has been haunting me, which is what is pulling our boat?
