C79 Discovered

Although it has only been ten minutes since we arrived at the ship, there is no place for us to set our hearts at rest.

This should have been my most successful live broadcast so far, although I didn't show up during the entire process.

The boat kept moving towards the shore, and my heart clenched. At this critical moment, I can't let anything go wrong.

However, there was a saying: fear comes with what you want. Just as they approached the shore, the boat suddenly stopped.

The two people on the opposite shore immediately cried out in alarm.

"What the hell is going on? It seems like something is towing the boat back."

There was no need to guess. It was clear that the monster must have some sort of intelligence under the water. It knew that the ship was about to escape, so it didn't want to let it go so easily.

"Evil creature, do you really think I can't do anything to you?"

The man in the long gown seemed to be truly angry. He quickly took a few steps forward from the bow of the ship and took out a powdery object from his bosom.

Under the moonlight, the color was ashen white.

I remember when the thing inside the coffin was a demon, this was the thing the man used to subdue.

The man quickly used his hand to throw something towards the surface of the water. At this moment, something strange happened.

Although I couldn't clearly see the situation of the boat from the back of the boat, I could clearly hear the water boiling.

I was familiar with the voice, so I couldn't be wrong.

Not too long after, I could already see the water on both sides of the boat bubble up. It was as though there was an invisible force that made the clear water in the boat boil.

At this moment, the force pulling the boat, which was constantly retreating towards the middle of the river, immediately subsided. Furthermore, one could faintly hear a muffled but mournful cry coming from the bottom of the river.

[This brother is really awesome, what is this trick?]

[The streamer has met an expert this time. Hurry up and interview him.]

[Idiot, they are now freeloading. If they are discovered, there is a high chance that they will be pushed into the water to act as scapegoats. Don't come up with any rotten ideas.]

In fact, in my heart, I was really interested in that man in a long gown. If it weren't for the special situation we were in, I would have definitely had a good chat with him.

"This guy is clearly an expert. He has been hiding his strength the entire time. It seems like he's been driven by something in the water."

At this moment, the people on the boat were all panicking, no one was paying attention to where the stern was. Tang Rou and I were a lot bolder, on one hand holding our cell phone to do the live broadcast, and on the other hand poking our heads out to see what the man in the long gown was doing.

With a handful of powder in her opponent's hand, she sprinkled it into the water, and the ship once again resumed its forward movement.

Hunchback Tian and the other two villagers were very nervous as they stood in the middle of the boat, not daring to move.

They both knew that with their skills, they would not be able to deal with the things in the water or the man in the long robe on the boat.

Therefore, they would rather stand with the long-sleeved man. This way, they might have a chance of survival.

"What's in the river? Is that thing okay?"

The two men on the shore were pulling on the ropes with all their might while shouting out loud. It could be seen that they were more concerned with the black coffin on the boat than the lives and deaths of these people.

"The items are fine, hurry up and pull."

The long-sleeved man's voice still didn't contain the slightest bit of panic, as if everything was under her control. This made Tang Rou and I feel a lot more at ease.

The fans in the broadcast room began to complain that their line of sight was not good enough to see what was going on around them. I glanced at the bow of the boat, then picked up my cell phone, paying attention to what was going on ahead as I circled around to satisfy their desire to pry.

The boiling water surface has started to calm down, but it gives off an extremely frightening sensation. A light breeze blows and it makes my skin crawl.

In particular, a comment in the live broadcast room made my scalp tingle.

[I just saw someone in the river. I swear I'm not lying. I've been in compulsory education for nine years.]

[Student Chen Duxiu, please take a seat.]

[I saw it too, standing in the water. The host turned the camera around a little.]

I swallowed my saliva. Before I could reply, Tang Rou suddenly pulled me back.

"Is … is that a person?" "Why are you floating on the surface of the water?"

Tang Rou's voice was very low, but she wasn't intentionally being cautious. It was as if she had been pressured to the point of losing her voice.

Following Tang Rou's direction, my heart also skipped a few beats.

This was way too scary.

I have seen quite a lot of things up till now. Even if I saw a corpse in the water, I wouldn't have such a huge reaction.

But on the right side of the ship, about five to six meters above the water surface, there was a figure floating there, just as the fans had said.

At this time of night, there was naturally no one at the head of the river. In other words, it was most likely a corpse.

As the old saying goes, corpses in water are afraid to turn their backs on others, because it is easy for corpses to swindle and harm people.

However, this corpse wasn't floating on the surface of the water, but was standing upright in an extremely unique way. This scene could truly frighten a person to death.

I didn't have the time to look at the screen. The corpse was becoming more and more complete in my line of sight.

It looked like the clothes worn by a man had long since been soaked in water. It was impossible to see his original appearance. The muddy ground was littered with aquatic plants.

The man kept his head low and didn't move at all. He was like a piece of wood that was slowly floating out of the water.

Was this the water ghost that had been fighting with the people on the boat?

I intentionally glanced at the man's hand. From such a distance, I couldn't see it clearly, but the man's hand was already swollen from the water. Moreover, it was dark green. It was completely different from the black ghost claw before.

"Should I remind them?"

Tang Rou whispered into my ear.

Because at that moment, the man in the long gown was busy directing the people on the shore to pull the rope, and with his line of sight obstructed, no one discovered the abnormality in the water.
