C17 Body salvage under water (2)
After going into the water for two seconds, I felt my body getting numb from the cold. I immediately took a deep breath and dived into the water, swimming towards the place I remembered.
Very quickly, I arrived at the bottom of the large rock. Using my weak vision in the water, I discovered that the object wrapped in water grass hadn't moved its position. Thinking about it, that should be the water ghost's skeleton.
As I was thinking, I stretched out my hand to pry away the water grasses. But the moment my hand touched the water grasses, the water grasses suddenly moved. Following that, half of a skull appeared before my eyes!
Even though my master told me that thing could feel my breath, I was already mentally prepared. But after such a sudden attack, I still exhaled in shock, and a string of bubbles rose from the bottom of the lake.
After calming down for two seconds, I reached out my hand to grab the aquatic plants, wanting to bring both the skeleton and the aquatic plant up to tidy them up, but after two tugs, not only did I not pull the aquatic plants up, instead, I pulled out half of the skeleton. To my surprise, only half of the skeleton was rotten, while the other half was still rotten; several small fish drilled out of the black hole on one side of the skeleton.
I didn't dare to watch anymore. I grabbed onto the bone and floated up to the surface of the water. After placing it on the shore, I immediately put on my clothes and ran for a few minutes. My entire body still felt numb from the cold.
"F * ck! It's so cold, why isn't Master here yet?"
I squatted by the pool, guarding a half-rotten corpse. I waited for more than ten minutes, but I still couldn't find my master. I thought, "Master, are you playing with me on purpose?" Let me go to the water in the middle of the winter to pick up a skeleton shelf, exercise my will and courage?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible. This old urchin, my master, has done this to me countless times a year, either putting two paper man in front of my bed in the middle of the night, or putting on a mask to scare me.
After waiting for another ten minutes and seeing that there was still no sign of my master, I couldn't wait any longer. Looking at the corpse in front of me, I was afraid that I wasn't afraid at all.
"I say, child, that's not right. You should be older than me, right? Then I'll call you brother? It's not easy for either of us. It's better for you to act cocky and not know how to feel cold, but it will be hard on me. In this cold weather, I still have to protect you.
Just as I finished speaking, I don't know if it was because of this water ghost, but suddenly a gust of cold wind blew past me, causing my hair to stand on end.
Two years ago, I was pestered by you, and almost lost my life. If I didn't meet my master, I'm afraid that right now, I would be a person with a lot of dignity, but, although I am alive, my master said that there is no telling how many difficulties will await me in the future. It won't be easy to live like this, but everyone is willing to live.
I don't know if it's because I stayed too long with my crazy master, but I actually talked to a skeleton. If Fatty and the others saw this, they would probably be scared to death.
I just talked to a half-rotten skeleton for half an hour and Master still didn't come.
I really couldn't wait any longer. Although it would take more than two hours from the cave entrance we lived in, but according to my master's speed, he should have come a long time ago. Perhaps he already finished dealing with the matters here and hasn't come yet, which only means that I have really been played around by this old man.
At this time, it was already lunch time. I stood up and hit my numb feet as I said to the skeleton, "Brother, I'm sorry. I won't put you back. I'll bury you here first and find my master, that naughty kid, to come and apologize to you when I return."
After saying that, I quickly dug a large hole on the shore and placed the skeleton inside. Then, I filled the hole with dirt and made a small mound. It could be considered as a simple grave.
"Hey, who are you?"
Just as I finished burying the corpse, a voice suddenly came from behind me. I was already in a state of nervousness, so I was startled by the sudden voice. My entire body shuddered, and my hand immediately landed on the ghost stick at my waist.
Soon, four people walked out from the bushes by the shore.
"Cuan Tianhou? Why the f * ck are you here? "
Amongst these four people, there were three middle-aged men who were unfamiliar to me. Cuan Tianhou was at the back with a pole on his back.
Hearing me call him, Cuan Tianhou also ran in front, and asked me why I was here. I pointed to the grave that was just made, and wanted to tell him what had happened, but I caught a glimpse of a man wearing glasses who was staring at the ghost stick at my waist.
I stopped myself from speaking further, telling Fatty to stop worrying about this, who are these three, why are they here?
"Oh, I forgot to mention it. Young man, we came from the county. We came to this mountain to investigate and count the forest area. There was no news from the last group of people. We have another mission this time, and it is to find them."
Hearing me ask Fatty, one of them immediately introduced me to him. As he spoke, he took out a small notebook from his bag.
Cuan Tianhou did not know many words, and said that these three came to find my father and the others. The book was covered with steel seals, your father had also recognized it, so I brought them up the mountain.
I looked at the small notebook he took out. This person was called Li Yi, and it was written that he was the leader of an investigation team, and he was even sealed with an official seal.
Seeing my ID, I smiled and said that I was from the country and that I was a child in the mountains. I didn't understand those rules, so don't blame me.
Li Yi waved his hand and said that he was fine. They were all people from inside the mountain, but the man with glasses said: "I saw that this little brother has an extraordinary temperament and had an extraordinary aura on him. I was wondering which one was on your waist."
"Wu Li!"
Before bespectacled man could finish speaking, a short man beside him tugged at him. bespectacled man also did not speak anymore.
In the afternoon, I didn't go back to look for my master, but ate some canned lunch with Li Yi and the others instead. Since I was born, it's actually my first time eating canned meat.
Li Yi and the others were not stingy at all, they let me eat three cans, after eating this meal, I had a rough understanding of these three people, this Li Yi is the leader, the short man is called Lin Ming, bespectacled man is a consultant called Wu Li.
The other two were fine, but at least I didn't have that kind of feeling of rejection towards them, it's just that this Wu Li looked wretched, and kept staring at the ghost stick at my waist. I couldn't say anything, and could only let him look, thinking that you look like a person who lives up to your name, Wu Li, powerless, even if you want to, I feel powerless to take it away.
