Xiao Ling glared at Zhang Meng's backpack, "You're the one who'll die here. You're cursing us again."
"Stop arguing and listen quickly." At this moment, Gu Mingtai shouted at the noisy Xiao Ling, and then looked at the black river with a serious face.
The Black River was still calm.
Xiao Ling looked at it for a while and then stopped staring. She looked up at Gu Mingtai and said, "Gu Mingtai, are you too nervous? There is no sound in the river. It is so quiet, there is no sound at all."
As she spoke, she walked towards the river. At this moment, You Hui, who was standing next to her, shouted, "Little Junior Sister, be careful."
Xiao Ling looked at him in confusion. Before she could ask what was going on, she suddenly felt a wet hand grabbing her right calf and pulling her into the river.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, save me." Just after he finished shouting this, he heard a loud splash and splashed water at the riverside.
Xiao Ling felt as if something was pulling her right leg down. Even though she could swim, it was useless and she kept swallowing water.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, something is grabbing my legs, please save me." Xiao Ling, who was floating in the river, asked for help from his two brothers Youhui and Youwu on the shore.
Youhui and Youwu immediately put down what they were holding. Youhui jumped down and swam towards her with all his might. At the critical moment, he finally grabbed the hand that was about to sink.
Youhui was just feeling happy when he suddenly realized that something was grabbing his legs and pulling him down, and his face turned pale.
"Big Brother, swim over here quickly." Youwu shouted loudly towards Youhui in the river.
You Hui gave a wry smile and looked over, "Second Junior Brother, it seems like something has grabbed my leg too."
When Youwu heard this, his face turned anxious and he immediately took off his coat and said, "Big Brother, Little Sister, don't worry, I'll help you."
Just as he was about to jump down, You Hui suddenly shouted, "Don't come down, there's something in here, don't come down."
Youwu immediately stopped jumping and just scratched his hair anxiously on the shore.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng looked anxiously at the motionless man beside her, "Gu Mingtai, what should we do?"
Gu Mingtai patted the back of her hand, then immediately looked at her and asked, "Xiao Meng, do you still have the lightning talisman on you?"
Zhang Meng was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and nodded, "Yes, do you want it?"
Gu Mingtai nodded and said, "Give me a few, I can use them."
Zhang Meng nodded, holding Xiao Zhuang in one hand, and reaching into her backpack with the other hand to find five lightning-inducing talismans and handed them to the man next to her.
Gu Mingtai glanced at the five talismans, curled his lips slightly, and slowly walked over to You Wu, who was turning around anxiously, and said, "Stand aside for now."
When Youwu saw that it was Gu Mingtai, hope immediately arose in his heart, and he quickly stepped aside as he said.
Gu Mingtai stared at the water for a long time, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He threw out a lightning talisman in his hand. The thrown lightning talisman hit Youhui's side, and a thunder sound was heard in the water.
With a "swish" sound, a black creature, which was wet all over and had a head about the same size as a human's, but with very large eyeballs, fell onto the shore.
As soon as his left foot was freed, Youhui immediately cast a grateful look towards Gu Mingtai who had helped him on the shore, and said with a smile, "Comrade Gu, thank you."
Gu Mingtai pursed his lips and did not answer, but continued to stare at the water with his sharp eyes.
After a while, he threw the other two talismans in his hand towards Xiao Ling. The same monster was knocked out of the water, fell on the shore, jumped a few times and then became motionless.
Seeing this, Youhui quickly pulled the unconscious junior sister and swam towards the shore.
Youwu, who had been waiting on the shore, saw them swimming over and quickly reached out to help.
Soon, the two men were lying on the ground, soaking wet and in a mess.
Zhang Meng hurried forward and handed the sleeping little zombie to Gu Mingtai, then knelt in front of the unconscious Xiao Ling to help her get out the water she had swallowed. Not long after vomiting, the unconscious Xiao Ling finally woke up slowly.
"Am I still alive?" This was the first question I asked when I woke up.
Youwu looked at her with a helpless look on his face and said, "Of course you are still alive."
As soon as Xiao Ling saw her second brother, who was like a family member to her, she immediately threw herself into his arms and burst into tears, "Second brother, I was so scared just now. I thought I was going to die in this river."
You Wu was stunned for a moment, then he reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting her, "Okay, don't cry, it's all right now, don't be so stubborn in the future."
Xiao Ling quickly got out of his arms, her eyes red as she said, "How could I have known that a hand would suddenly jump out of this river and grab me?"
Speaking of this thing, Xiao Ling immediately got up from the ground, looked at the river surface angrily and said, "Where is that weird thing? If I see it, I will tear it into pieces."
Zhang Meng smiled and shook her head, pointing at the two dripping monsters behind them. "Don't look at them. They're right behind you. You can chop them into pieces right now."
When Xiao Ling heard this, she turned around immediately and was immediately frightened by the two creatures. "Oh my god, what is this thing? Why does it look like this? It's so scary."
After she shouted, everyone came to her side one after another.
There were two monsters on the ground that looked like humans and monkeys, with hands, feet, and hair. But their bulging eyes made people feel uneasy.
"It's a water monkey!" Just as everyone was staring at the two monsters, Gu Mingtai's voice sounded beside them.
Zhang Meng immediately looked at the man beside her, "Gu Mingtai, have you ever seen something like this?"
Gu Mingtai shook his head slightly. "I haven't seen it, but I saw it in a book my master gave me. There's a kind of monster in the Yin River that looks like a human and a monkey, called a water monkey. I think the ones the book is talking about are them."
