Chapter 143 Salvage!(1/2)
Crazy
The dense raindrops hit the river surface, and the splashing water was like a layer of mist, blurring the picture and blurring the vision.
Fortunately, when Chen Chong went out, he brought an umbrella by chance so that he would not be soaked in a scattered chicken.
Each person and cat squatted together in a mess with umbrellas. The sound of water drops in their ears was even more harsh than the whistle of a car. The surroundings were pitch black, and the beam of the flashlight could not penetrate further distances in the rain curtain.
"The difficult task is to catch the body, but the surging river is like finding a needle in a haystack."
Every time Chen Chong had to put down his kitchen knife, tilted his neck and grabbed the umbrella, then used his hands as a scoop, and poured the rain from the boat out. Otherwise, he and the black cat would have fallen into the water because of the shipwreck. At that time, it would not be him who caught others, but someone else who came to catch him.
As for the black cat, it was even more miserable. It drowned in the river and no one cared about it.
The black cat seemed to understand this truth. Whenever Chen Chong started to scoop water, it would follow him to "help" and slap the water out with his front paws, looking diligent.
Of course, its function is obviously negligible. Rather than saying that it is helping, it is better to say that it is playing in the water and having a lot of fun.
Chen Chong could only look at the nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, just pretend that he didn't see it.
Suddenly, a hint of coolness came from my neck, which was like water drops falling on my skin, or something cold to touch it. It was very real, completely different from the occasional wind blowing in the river.
I raised my hand and touched it, but there was nothing. I pulled out the flashlight stuck in my pocket to check around, but I found no abnormalities.
Clang.
A slight collision sound came from the bottom of the ship, which scared Chen Chong and the Black Cat. The former quickly inserted the oar into the water and shook it to see if it had touched objects such as reefs. The latter was lying on the bow of the ship and stayed vigilant.
On this vast river surface, their small wooden boat can be said to be as fragile as a piece of paper. Once it collides with a hard object, it may cause a fatal gap in the hull, or it may be directly overturned and overturned.
Fortunately, after some inspection, there were no obstacles around the boat, which made Chen Chong breathe a little relieved, guessing that the collision sound just now should have been caused by a slight collision between the scattered objects floating on the river and the hull.
Although Gouwei River is a branch of Longjiang, the width of the riverbed is not narrow, at least one or two hundred meters. It is not surprising that various ships usually come and go, and occasionally leaving some bottles, jars and other things.
Clang.
However, as soon as this idea ended, the sound of the collision appeared again, and it still came from the bottom of the ship.
Chen Chong frowned and quickly picked up the flashlight toward the side of the ship on the left. This is the direction of the water flow, and the floating physics should come out from here.
The originally calm water surface has long been beaten into a honeycomb surface by raindrops. Countless water splashes have formed a looming obstacle in front of the beam, making it difficult for people to see clearly at the first time.
In order to keep his body balanced in the shaking boat, Chen Chong had to lower his center of gravity, causing the splashed water to penetrate his eyes, causing him to subconsciously rub the back of his hands.
The beam of the flashlight shook violently.
After finally smoothing out the discomfort in his eyes, he pointed the flashlight out of the boat again, and just saw a blurry black shadow slowly floating out of the transmission underwater.
It is not like a bottle or a wooden board, but more like a ball of thread.
Chen Chong curled his lips and was about to withdraw his gaze, but his heart was filled with a sudden moment.
A ball of thread? Can such a thing collide with the bottom of the ship?
As soon as he thought of this, he checked again, but found that the thread had sunk. In a moment, it seemed that it had never appeared.
Meow.
The black cat stood at the bow of the boat and shouted softly. When he looked back, he found that he was reminding him that the water in the boat was getting more and more.
Chen Chong took a deep breath, too lazy to care about what was touching the bottom of the ship, as long as he didn't load the ship with a big hole.
Wow
His hands became a "scoop" and continued to pour water out. It was not until about five minutes later, when the water in the boat was almost gone, Chen Chong wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled bitterly.
"According to this rainfall, if there is no drainage, the boat will be swallowed up in about twenty minutes."
Clang.
Just at this moment, the third collision sounded, and it was louder than the previous two times, and the force was stronger. Chen Chong could even feel the tremor from the soles of the shoes!
Woo woo woo woo
At the same time, the river wind whistled.
"wrong."
Chen Chong's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and his scalp became numb. This was not the sound of the wind, it was clearly a woman crying!
"Little Black?"
He turned his head and looked at the black cat, and found that the latter was licking his paws in a daze, without any sense of consciousness, and even heard his own voice. It can be seen that the sound of the clattering rain had a great impact on it.
"Don't lick it." Chen Chong gently pushed the black cat's head, and directly pushed the latter into a daze. When the black cat was about to grin and express his dissatisfaction, he continued to speak, "There is something near us."
Hearing this, the black cat's little head turned around, but could only see the ship's side that was taller than it. He screamed strangely, and used a gangster's pace to walk towards the bow of the ship. There was a big cat master here, so who dared to get close to it?
Woo woo woo woo
If there is a cry that seems to be there again in the wind, it sounds like it is close but not far away, as if it is around, but the source of the sound cannot be found.
Meow
The black cat also heard it, buried his head very low, and made high-pitched screams to the surroundings to show his authority.
Woo woo woo woo
However, the sound seemed unaffected and continued to appear, the more you cried, the more miserable it became. In the end, it seemed like crying and laughing, which made Chen Chong's back involuntarily cool.
Clang dong dong
The crying disappeared, the collision sounded, first from the bottom of the ship, and then moved little by little along the side of the ship toward the stern.
Such a clear sound could not escape the black cat's ears. It turned around and ran to the stern along the side of the ship. The ups and downs were as smooth as the ground under its feet, and the balance was so good.
Chen Chong had no time to envy him, so he threw the umbrella aside at random, picked up the kitchen knife and went to the stern of the boat, and raised the flashlight to aim the beam at the direction of the black cat's eye.
Two or three meters away from the stern of the boat, the "line ball" that had disappeared appeared again, and was not affected by the water flow, floating there quietly without moving.
Of course, it is not accurate to say "blocks" now, because this thing is clearly the hair of a woman floating in the water!
It floats and sinks in the water, and it keeps wriggling!
The black cat next to him did not make any sound, his hair was upside down, looking like he was facing a great enemy.
Wow
Suddenly, the surroundings began to slow down and smaller, and it stopped completely in just ten seconds.
The rain stopped and the river surface began to return to its initial calm. Under such circumstances, the position of the light beam illuminated became clearer and clearer, and in the end, the lower part of the water could be seen blurred.
That clearly had a woman with long and dense hair and hideous eyes!
Chen Chong couldn't help but tremble with his hands, and suddenly he thought of the first taboo mentioned by the corpse fisherman before, that is, the corpse standing in the water. This kind of thing is called "Sha". It goes as far as you see, because they are extremely resentful!
"Damn it." He couldn't help but slap it hard, because the purpose of the difficult task was obviously to get it back!
A taboo that even the corpse-retrieval person dares to face is a difficult task or a death mission?
"It's rainy again, and it's evil again. If there is another situation where I can't catch it, wouldn't that mean that I've been provoking the three taboos?" Chen Chong's hands and feet were cold, and the cold sweat on his forehead was pouring out, almost forming a stream of water and sliding down directly.
What made him even more trouble was that there was no bamboo pole or a rope mixed with black dog hair. Could it be that he could grab it with his bare hands?
A corpse, or a corpse that had been soaked in the water for a long time, if you accidentally scratch the skin
The more Chen Chong thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, so he simply lit a cigarette, squatted at the stern of the boat and sat in line with the black cat.
"Are you afraid?" he asked.
"Meow." The black cat screamed without looking back.
"I'm afraid of it, not afraid of it twice. Ask you again, are you afraid?"
"Meow."
Hearing the sound, he glanced at the black cat suspiciously, and saw that the latter lowered his head and added reluctantly.
"Two sounds, not bad." Chen Chong nodded on his own, and immediately threw the cigarette that had only taken two sips of it at the bottom of the boat. He raised his foot and crushed it again and again. In that way, he wanted to crush the bottom of the boat.
The black cat scratched his head with his front paws, completely unaware of why the cigarette was obviously extinguished by the remaining rainwater when it touched the bottom of the ship, but the owner still kept stepping on it.
Of course it won't understand. When a person panics to a certain extent, he doesn't even know what he is doing!
"Go up and catch it!"
Chen Chong blew hard, wrapped his mouth and blew hard, then clamped the flashlight into the crescent nest, held the kitchen knife tightly, grabbed the oar and rowed towards the female corpse.
The black cat held his head up and raised his chest, took a step back without a trace, and then took a step back without a trace.
Crazy
The boat was not far from the female corpse, so Chen Chong only rowed for a moment and then arrived half a meter in front of the female corpse.
"Since there is no bamboo pole, I will use an umbrella." Rubbed my numb cheeks, picked up the umbrella beside me, hooked the female corpse to the side of the boat, and then showed an expression that was even more ugly than crying. I reluctantly leaned on the side of the boat and reached out to grab the female corpse's arm.
Although it is easier to grab hair, it is chilling when you think of the scene of water coming out of your hair. Just imagine that women are born to love beauty, and in such a rough way, they must wake up the female corpse alive!
Pa ji.
The first failure!
The female corpse's arms were very slippery, like a layer of sticky liquid was applied. Chen Chong was caught off guard, and because of inertia, he almost crawled down from the other side of the ship.
Fortunately, he reacted in time and did not laugh.
