Chapter 308 Under the Black Water

Under everyone's gaze, a ship that was a whole circle larger than the ship they were riding on slowly sailed out of the fog.

The moment they saw the boat clearly, the expressions of the four people changed to varying degrees.

The boat looked like an old-fashioned awning boat with a square cabin on it, but what really frightened them was that the boat was painted bright red from top to bottom, which was very dazzling.

Drifting in the mist, it looks less like a ship than a blood-red coffin.

It seems that this is their second boat.

It's also the one for An Xuan and Xia Meng.

Although there is no clear provision, everyone present has the same thought. This blood-red boat must be used to hold the corpse, which is the "bride" they are about to pick up.

No longer hesitating, An Xuan slowly used force to move the boat closer. Then when the two boats were about one meter apart, he took a deep breath and jumped onto the blood-red boat.

There was nothing unusual on the boat, and Xia Meng jumped over. When the two inspected the boat, they found that the boat hidden in the mist was not as new as imagined, but very old.

The blood-red color on it is not blood, but paint. It looks fine from a distance, but it looks mottled up close and has fallen off in many places. The original wood color inside was revealed.

The entire boat seemed to have been soaked in water for a long time. The water vapor was very heavy and some parts were rotten. A piece of rotten wood could be torn off with a little force on the handle of the cabin.

Water was still dripping from the cabin from time to time.

"This boat doesn't look like it's normally on the lake." An Xuan squatted in front of the cabin door and stared into the cabin and said, "It looks like a sunken ship that has been salvaged."

Xia Meng was silent for a long time, then said: "I can't control that much anymore, let them go into the water first."

Time is limited, and according to regulations, they must find the body of the female ghost before the second drum sounds.

Throwing the rope over, Fatty and Chen Qiang tied the rope around their waists, and then helped each other check whether it was stable. Looking at the dark lake, Fatty's heart trembled.

But there is no way, you may die if you go down, but you will definitely die if you don't go down.

Chen Qiang also seemed to be scared, but he still encouraged the fat man and said: "Fat brother, if you encounter any danger down there, just signal to me and I will come to help you."

"Thank you." Fatty nodded to Chen Qiang, "You too, just signal to me if you are in danger."

Fatty had a good impression of Chen Qiang. He didn't seem to be very calculating. When choosing costumes before, he also let himself choose first.

If it was within his power, Fatty thought he would give him a hand.

"Are you ready?" Xia Meng stood at the bow of the boat and urged: "When you are ready, hurry up.

The fat man looked at the black lake water, then swallowed, "Are you going down here? The Corpse Bride is underwater near here?"

He raised his head and said, "But why do I remember that my teacher Liao Zhi said it should be near the shore?"

"Look back." An Xuan interjected.

Turning his head, the fat man found that the fog behind him had dispersed a little, and not far away was the shore. The embankment made of stones was looming, which was exactly where the finger of Liao Zhi, the master of the day, was.

"After we get down, we will communicate through the rope." An Xuan pulled the rope connected to their waists. Fatty and Chen Qiang could clearly feel the power coming from the rope. "Pull once to come up for air, and pull twice quickly." If the deputy is in danger, we will pull you up immediately, and we will pull you out three times when we find the body.”

"It's very dark under the water. After you get down, try to move within the range where each other can feel each other." An Xuan added worriedly: "Be sure not to separate."

"Plop!"

"Bang!!"

The two of them entered the water one after another. Chen Qiang seemed to have diving experience and was more flexible in his movements, but to Fatty's dismay, he simply held his breath and then followed him down.

But what made them happy was that the water was not as deep as they thought, and there was still a little light. It was difficult for untrained people to open their eyes underwater, but at this moment, both of them did it. .

The fat man puffed out his cheeks and groped carefully under the water with his two chubby hands.

This is a very scary and weird feeling. He hopes to touch something, but also doesn't want to touch something.

Chen Qiang is right behind him.

The two of them made an agreement before they entered the water to stay back to back as much as possible and rely on each other.

Contrary to what he thought before, the bottom of the lake was very clean without many messy obstacles. Fatty even caught a handful of fine sand.

Chen Qiang also had the same doubts. They all had a feeling that couldn't be called feelings. It didn't seem like there was a corpse here.

Holding one's breath while diving is no better than holding one's breath on land. Soon, the fat man couldn't bear it anymore. He poked Chen Qiang behind him. The two looked at each other and began to pull the rope to come up.

What reassured the two of them was that after receiving the news, the superiors immediately began to pull the rope. Because Chen Qiang had better water properties, he also followed up and worked harder, so his speed was faster.

In comparison, the fat man's movements were much clumsy. He struggled to swing his legs and tried his best to jump up. The outline of the ship was already blurred on it.

"Boom!"

One misstep made him hit his head hard on the bottom of the boat.

The collision made the fat man dizzy. He gripped the rope tightly with one hand and swung the other hand as hard as he could, subconsciously hoping to grab the edge of the boat or something else and get out of the water as soon as possible.

Finally, he grabbed a hand in a panic. Just as he looked at the hand through the turbid lake water with joy, he shuddered.

Half a second later, a feeling 10 times colder than the lake water quickly ran through his body.

He saw a bloated corpse quietly attached to the bottom of the boat. The corpse was wearing a bright red costume, almost integrated with the blood-red bottom of the boat. The limbs that were soaked in water floated up and down with the water, like water plants that were chopped by a knife.

What made the fat man collapse the most was that his right hand was grasping the corpse's boneless, unusually cold and slippery hand.

A burst of water flowed over, and the corpse's rotten and blue face staggered towards him. The next second, the fat man seemed to have suddenly discovered something. He couldn't bear it anymore, and his eyes that were almost unable to open suddenly opened wide.

"Something happened!" Zuo Jing in the room couldn't bear it anymore and sat up.

Just now, all of them heard the third drum sound.

According to the rules, the four people who went out earlier should bring back the "bride" before the third drum sound.

Something must have happened

His throat rolled violently, and Youqi looked at the door, with fear in his eyes, "Why, why didn't anyone come back? What happened to them?"
