As night fell, black enveloped the earth, and there was no star in the sky. Even the moon half-covered its face, revealing only half-hazy moon.

Although it is mid-July now, I couldn't help but tremble for a while while standing by the Yellow River in the middle of the night and being blown by the cold wind.

Looking at the Yellow River shining with cold light under the hairy moon, and thinking about the dead and collapsed boat I encountered at noon today, I immediately became resistant.

"Brother Yang, what are you looking at? Let's clean up and go into the water quickly." Xiaochen had already put on his diving suit and had an oxygen tank in his arms. At this time, he saw me staring at the Yellow River motionlessly in a daze, and asked quickly.

I laughed dryly, withdrew my gaze, and hurriedly put my diving suit on my body. Looking at the soles of my feet that looked like duck feet, I couldn't help but fantasize about what I look like now, which must be very funny.

"Brother Duanmu? What's wrong with you? Why are you smirking?" On the other hand, Yuxun also changed her clothes from the grass, and her tight diving suit showed her proud figure to the extreme perfection.

I laughed and said, "Sister Xun'er looks pleasing to the eye,"

Yu Xun gave me a blank look and said, "Go away quickly and try to come back before dawn. It would be bad if someone discovers it."

After saying that, she put the oxygen storage helmet on her head and jumped into the tumbling water of the Yellow River.

thump--

Another sound, I quickly turned my head and found that Xiaochen, the little boy, actually jumped down with Yuxun.

I gritted my teeth and was about to jump down, but a powerful palm was put on my shoulder at this time.

I turned my head suddenly and waved my hand back, but as soon as I waved it behind me, I was grabbed tightly. The latter exerted force and my arm was firmly pressed against my back.

"Hiss, it hurts." I subconsciously exclaimed.

Unexpectedly, the other party really let go of his hand after hearing my cry. When I got the chance, I turned around, found a sleeve knife and wanted to stab the person behind me.

It was stinging, I could only hear the sound of a knife shattering my clothes, and then my wrist was held in my hand by someone else.

"Fuck," I cursed angrily, but I didn't expect this guy to be very capable.

"Stop, stop, Xiaoyang, don't do it first."

The man actually spoke. The sound sounded very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

I frowned and looked at the man and said, "Who are you? Let me go first,"

Suddenly, the strength on my wrist was loosened, and then someone pressed my forehead. The man said, "Good boy, I just worshipped the master in the afternoon, but I forgot tonight."

After hearing what he said, I immediately realized. No wonder, I said the sound is very familiar.

When I looked up again, I could roughly identify the person's appearance through the light of the moon in the sky. I smiled and said, "Oh, it's Master Murong, I'll just say, who has such good skills?"

"Slippery," Murong Zhen laughed and scolded me, and then tidied up the clothes on his chest. With the moonlight, I could clearly see that the water ghost had a magnificent opening on the torn clothes that had not changed for a century because of my "impulse" just now.

I retracted the sleeve knife in my hand back into the sleeve crack with guilt. I immediately changed the subject and asked, "Master, what are you doing when you come in the middle of the night?"

Murong Zhen immediately covered my mouth, his wrinkled face and smiled even stronger. He said, "I will go wherever you want to go. Haha. Although I like the word "you call me very much, Xiaoyang, you should still call me less. It would be bad if others hear it."

I nodded clearly, and Murong Zhen put his hand down. I wanted to ask him in detail what he was going to do, but after thinking about it, he still gave up the idea of ​​asking.

Since Murong Zhen has already said this, and he is my master, it is natural not to tell me about his affairs, let alone I am a disciple of the Wai Shui.

Seeing me stunned, Murong Zhen reached out and shook his hand in front of me. He said, "Xiaoyang, why are you so amazing? Your two friends have already reached the bottom of the Yellow River."

I was pulled back to my mind by his words, and I quickly slapped my forehead. It was so big that I forgot about Sister Xun'er and Xiaochen.

I quickly put on my oxygen storage helmet, looked at the river and then looked at Murong Zhen. I was about to ask if Murong Zhen was going to go into the water with me, but I was caught off guard by Murong Zhen and sent it directly into the water.

Puff, the water pressure when I first entered the water made me dizzy and flicked me a few times, and then I heard another diving sound.

After almost getting used to it, I saw a black shadow swimming towards me.

I thought it was Murong Zhen, but I didn't expect it was Xiao Chen. Through the waterproof spotlight on the oxygen storage helmet, I could clearly see that he was swimming towards me with a hurry on his face.

Seeing him like this, a bad signal flashed through my mind. I immediately turned on the two spotlights above my head and swam towards him.

Unexpectedly, when this kid saw me approaching, he immediately took out the short dagger I prepared for him for self-defense in the afternoon and pressed it against his chest. He looked alert when he looked at me.

This little boy had a cramp tonight? I frowned as he looked at his actions and continued to swim towards him.

"Ah, he's a damn, I'm fighting with you, it's so terrible!"

"Hey, hey," I looked at the dagger that was getting closer and closer to my head, and shouted in a hurry. This kid wasn't thrusting, but he was so nervous. When I saw that it was me, I wanted to stab me. "Hey, Xiaochen, if you have something to say, what are you doing? Don't, don't stab me, who will teach you a lesson in that duck in the future?"

It seemed that my words worked, but Xiao Chen actually stopped the movement in his hand, just when the blade was less than five centimeters away from my oxygen storage helmet.

"Are you really Brother Yang?" Xiao Chen looked at me with disbelief.

I was so angry when I saw him like this. I was almost stabbed by him inexplicably. I kicked him and scolded: "Stupid little boy, I have learned it. I dare to stab me. Have you seen me disliked me for a long time? If you don't like me, just say it. Can't we fight one-on-one? You need to stab me so hard?"

I kept talking, and Xiaochen seemed to be stunned by my kick, looking at me without saying a word, with his eyes fixed on him.

I was still thinking about whether my foot was too heavy. Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly pounced on me and hung it on me like an octopus. Then I cried and said, "Brother Yang, it's really you. Stop talking about anything. Come with me to save Sister Xun'er first, she is surrounded!"

"Don't be anxious first, tell me what's going on, what's wrong with you just now." I asked Xiaochen, who wanted to pull me deeper into the bottom of the river.

Xiao Chen looked at me with a sad look and said, "Brother Yang, let's talk while walking. Bah, I'm talking while swimming."

While talking, Xiaochen pulled me to swim deeper. Before the tour, I looked at Murong Zhen's figure. When I found him silently following Xiaochen and me, I wandered with Xiaochen with confidence.

Along the way, Xiaochen also told me about the general matter.

It turned out that shortly after Xiaochen and Yuxun got into the river, they found someone following them all the time. When they went to take a closer look, they found that the "person" was me, because the "person" had a face exactly the same as mine.

It is precisely because of this that Xiaochen explained that he wanted to implicate me when he met me the first time.

But they just glanced at the man from a distance, thinking that I was still worried about those who died and did not dare to go deep into the bottom of the river, so they ignored the "me".

It was not until they entered a mysterious cave where human-faced fish kept gushing out of the cave that they suspected the "me" who had been following them and remained silent.

When we found out that what they were concerned about was true, the ‘I’ was simply a human-faced fish that changed into my appearance and had only one face, it was too late. They were already surrounded by a human-faced fish, and the face of each human-faced fish had become mine at any time.

And he was also lucky enough to escape because Yuxun attracted the fish alone.

"Fuck," I couldn't help but curse when I heard this, Damn, I didn't expect that there was such a terrible existence of human-faced fish at the bottom of the Yellow River.

I have heard of the human face fish. It is similar to a vampire. It relies on blood sucking for a living. It does not suck the blood of animals, but only sucks human blood. It usually sleeps without blood sucking. It only takes batches of action when smelling humans.

It seems that Xiaochen and the others touched it when they came down, so they were locked and surrounded by human-faced fish.

Wait, according to what Xiaochen said, a cold light appeared in my mind! Who is the person whom I think is Murong Zhen behind us?

My scalp began to numb. Xiao Chen said so mysteriously, and I couldn't even be sure whether Murong Zhen was following me.

"Xiaochen," I grabbed Xiaochen who was in a hurry to travel, "Brother, I'll ask you something,"

"What?" Xiao Chen paused, and seemed to see my entangled expression.

I leaned toward him mysteriously, and then said, "Can those human-faced fish speak?"

Xiaochen was obviously stunned for a moment. I looked at it and said, forget it. He probably didn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have stopped just because of my few words.

Thinking of this, I didn't turn around and shouted directly:

"In ancient times, there were one eight-treasure pagoda with thousands of gods and thieves, and four pavilions in the sky are now empty, I don't know what it is."

Xiaochen was stunned by my shouting, looking as if he was two feet in a daze.

In fact, it is safest for me to say this. These sentences were taught by my elder brother when I entered the thousand-sect. My elder brother said that only those within the eight lines of the outer line are familiar with these sentences and can follow the previous and next sentences. When people outside the outer line hear this, it is similar to the usual three and a half poems.

In fact, you must be still struggling that there is clearly a method that is very convenient and accurate. Why don’t I use it? I’m not stupid, and I can also think of swim directly over and touching whether the person behind us has a body. After all, Xiao Chen said before that the human-faced fish only has one face and no body.

But this method seems simple, but it also takes great risks. I have also said that human-faced fish suck blood. It can be imagined that their sharp teeth are not arranged. To tear apart the diving suits like us should be a matter of minutes for them.

It would be fine if I found out that it was Murong Zhen. Don’t be a human-faced fish by then. Then Xiaochen and I will die? Anyway, I will not let us take such risks.

Back to the point, I shouted for a long time, but I couldn't hear the echo. Just as Xiaochen and I were highly focused on our nerves and were about to escape at any time, the sound of objects swimming came not far behind us.
