C72 (1/2)

The moment the voice sounded, I instantly tensed up. At the same time, a hazy light shone from the water in front of me.

That's right, the entire underground water is a ring. After drifting for so long, we have arrived at the place where the strange snakes roam for the second time! Those lights were the lamps that had been left behind on the heads of those who had been killed!

Gulp!

The sound of something being pulled underwater was heard. We immediately turned our heads to look towards the source of the sound.

The last time was in the dark. We didn't know anything. This time, we can clearly see that the coffin of the female ghost that was floating in front of us was directly pulled into the water by that strange snake!

Soon after, the strange snake wrapped itself around the coffin. The tentacles in the snake's mouth directly went into the coffin and began to wiggle as if it was sucking on something.

It was only then that we could see clearly. The black shadow that appeared in the water the last time was not the shadow of this strange snake. Instead, it was a densely packed leech that covered the bottom of the water!

The leeches seemed to have their own thoughts, stopping only about seven meters away from the snake. They did not move too far away from it. As for the four corpses that had fallen into the water earlier, they had fallen into the group of leeches. By the looks of it, all the blood in their bodies had long since been sucked dry! In addition, there were some leeches that entered and exited their mouths and noses. Just looking at these leeches would cause one to feel a sense of numbness.

Only after a while did that weird snake release the coffin, and that coffin, also directly floated up to the surface of the water, near our raft near the surface of the water, splashed a lot of water!

Upon seeing the coffin, I subconsciously turned my head to look at Zhang Zi Kong, but what made me feel terrifying was, Zhang Zi Kong had actually disappeared without me knowing when! Replacing them were two other unfamiliar figures!

”Shh!” ”Don't make a sound, it's Elder Xu who told us to look after you guys because he was afraid that something might happen to you guys.”

After hearing what they said, my first reaction was that Zhang Zi Kong had already been viciously attacked by them! But then he thought, with Zhang Zi Kong's ability, he shouldn't have been so easily taken by someone else. At the very least, he shouldn't have been able to be so quiet without making a sound.

Thinking of this, my worried heart relaxed a little.

Humph! Old Assembly Xu is so kind? Afraid that something might happen to us, that the two of you would come and look after us without anyone noticing?

This short sentence had directly revealed Xu Man's wolfish ambition, and once again proved how meticulous Zhang Zikong's thinking was.

However, the stranger's words seemed to attract the attention of the strange snake at the bottom of the water.

Just as the person finished speaking, ripples appeared on the surface of the water, and even the coffin that had been quiet earlier suddenly opened up! From within the coffin came the chilling sound of nails scratching against wood! Even the wooden cow in my hand started to heat up!

Seeing this, I was scared witless!

Fortunately, the moment the coffin lid was opened, the head of the strange snake appeared on the surface of the water. The moment the weird snake appeared from the water, the sound from the coffin stopped and the coffin lid closed once again.

Silence. For a moment, the surroundings became dead silent. Not only was there breathing, even the sound of heartbeats could not be heard!

Afterwards, under the gaze of the weird snake, we gradually distanced ourselves from the water that was emitting light. But the four of us, none of us dare to make the slightest sound!
