C1 (2/2)

As the car sped along the road, Bai Yixuan held her head and said, ”Where are Little Fan Zi going? You're almost on the highway.”

”I found a good place when I went to the hot spring with Old Long a few days ago.” Zhao Yunfan replied, ”We're almost there.”

Bai Yixuan stood in front of the lake and took a deep breath of the somewhat cold air of early spring. She patted on Zhao Yunfan's shoulder hard, ”Sure, Fan Zi.

”It really isn't.” Zhao Yunfan raised her hand and pointed, ”Look, that's a small village, it's a rather primitive place, and hasn't been developed much yet. Who knows how deep this lake is.”

”That's right.” Bai Yixuan nodded, she walked a few steps along the lakeside, and suddenly felt something burning in her chest, she gasped lightly, then Zhao Yunfan walked over.

”What's wrong, Brother Xuan?”

Bai Yixuan was also puzzled, she took out a piece of jade from her clothes. The jade was pink, and under the sunlight, it became even more crystal clear.

”What is this thing?” Zhao Yunfan asked.

”It's my family heirloom jade pendant.” Bai Yixuan pretended to be mysterious.

”Amazing, Brother Xuan.” Zhao Yunfan raised her thumb, ”Why do I look so familiar with this monster?”

”Hmm?” Bai Yixuan asked curiously, ”Do you know what this is?”

”I remember now. A few days ago, I went to see this monster in a Chinese-American joint venture. This monster is called Taowu, it's a Vicious Beasts!”

”Taowu …” Bai Yixuan was deep in thought. She could feel the heat from the jade, it was definitely not her warmth. A strange feeling spread throughout her body.

”Help, help!” and raised their heads and looked at the water surface, where the calm surface of the water was floating just a moment ago, there was a young child floating on it.

The child was struggling, but his body was getting smaller and smaller, and the struggle became deeper and deeper.

”Brother Xuan, look at that!” Zhao Yunfan shouted, ”What do we do, I don't know how to swim.”

”I will, first call the police, then go and see if there are any boats for the surrounding villagers.” Before Zhao Yunfan could react, Bai Yixuan had already jumped into the water.

The lake water was very cold, and the chill slowly seeped into his marrow. Bai Yixuan swam with difficulty, but fortunately, she had a grandfather in charge whose physique was strong since she was young. Even though it was hard to endure, it didn't mean that she couldn't.

She tried her best to swim towards the direction of the child, but the jade pendant in front of her chest was getting hotter and hotter.

There was a small boat floating on the lake, and the child had already been scooped onto the boat. Bai Yixuan was comforted, but felt that her hands and feet were growing weaker. For someone like her who often swam, she knew that she was in a bad situation. The water in the lake must be too cold … … Her limbs were cramping.

Zhao Yunfan was still calling out to her and the boat was also trying very hard to get closer to her. Bai Yixuan tried very hard to float up to the surface of the water but she suddenly felt as if her ankle was being pulled down by something.

Pulled into the ice-cold lake, Bai Yixuan speechlessly looked at the aquatic plant wrapped around her ankle. Seeing what kind of sin she had done, the heavens mercifully sent water plants that had appeared out of nowhere to entangle her, could it be that she was going to die like this?

But what should he do if he died, his grandfather only had him left, her consciousness was in a trance, the water in her mouth was bubbling and Bai Yixuan gave up on struggling.

Just like that, she was unlucky. Just before she lost consciousness, the jade pendant on her chest released a blinding red light, forming a mist in the water that surrounded Bai Yixuan's body.
