The Exorcist

Chapter 18 Summer Travel Story (Part 2)

We were too tired from playing during the day, so we all fell asleep deeply after the activity. Of course, we also had some knowledge about survival in the wild. We lit a fire outside the tent and divided the nine boys into five groups to take turns keeping vigil. A Zhan didn't like others, so he was in a group by himself, and he was asked to keep watch at the last one. class.

Everything was fine at first, but in the middle of the night, it suddenly started raining. It wasn't raining heavily, so the boy on duty didn't think it would be a big problem, so he hid in a tent to take shelter from the rain. Maybe they were too sleepy, so both of them fell asleep.

Who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and we were at the lowest point of the mountain col. Before we realized the danger, the campground was already flooded.

The boys' tent was higher up, while the girls' tent was right next to the waterhole, so when we were woken up by the girls' screams, the girls' tent had been completely washed away by the sudden flash flood, and it was pitch black with only one tent left. I saw several heads floating on the water, and pale arms waving for help!

We were all frightened at that time, but Azhan was the only one who was still conscious. He directed us to take out large waterproof flashlights and climbing ropes, and divide the boys into two groups. One group used the flashlight to illuminate the water at a high place that was not yet submerged. And grab this end of the climbing rope, and the other group with better water resistance tied the rope around their waists, and then went into the water to rescue people!

There was also a boy named Zhao Jiang because he was relatively thin. A Zhan asked him to assist. When a boy rescued a girl who fell into the water, he helped pull her up.

A Zhan usually doesn't like to be noticed by others, but when something happens, he will naturally exude a leadership temperament, making people follow him involuntarily. So, we didn’t argue too much and didn’t have time to argue, so we just did as Azan told us.

But when we got into the water, we realized that rescuing people was not that easy. It was different from being in a swimming pool or in a calm river. It was a mountain torrent rushing down the waterfall, with a whirlpool. It felt like an undercurrent under the water, sucking people down. This is the reason why these girls can't go ashore alone while clinging to a few rocks even though they know how to swim.

We swam hard in the water towards the girl who fell into the water. We didn’t have any specific goal. We just rescued the girl closest to the shore first. As long as he touched someone's arm, he would grab it tightly, and then swim to the shore with the help of the rope, and let Zhao Jiang pull him up.

It was so dark and the current was so fast that we couldn't see the specific situation on the water at all. We only relied on the shadowy black figures and calls for help to determine our direction. It was raining heavily at that time, and the light that shone through the rain curtain from such a distance was already very weak. In addition, the people on the shore were shaken by the wind, rain and anxiety. , it makes people’s vision blurred.

We didn’t know who was rescued, nor how many people were rescued. We just pulled up when we found someone calling for help in the water. After struggling for a long time, I discovered that there was another person in the water screaming for help. In a hurry, A-Zhan and I rushed into the water again.

Zhao Jiang has been helping rescue people on the shore and counting the number of people. The moment we entered the water, he suddenly shouted: "Nana, it's Nana, Nana didn't come up!"

I became anxious as soon as I heard this. To be honest, I had quite a crush on Nana at that time. How could I allow my sweetheart to die in this pool, so I swam into the water desperately, as did A Zhan next to me.

At this time, all the light on the shore was concentrated in one place, but due to the weak light, we couldn’t see Nana’s face clearly, only her shadow. The strange thing was that we couldn’t catch her, and even Azhan and I couldn’t catch her. Even though they bumped into each other, they still couldn't touch Nana.

"Over there, over there!"

"Move to the left!"

"Catch it! Ouch!"

"Not that!"

The classmates on the shore kept shouting, and Nana's cry also sounded in our ears, but no matter what, we could only see the shadow but not the entity.

A Zhan was only twenty years old at that time. You should know that because he hated his own abilities, he never used them to practice since he was a child. After his father passed away, he completely sealed himself, so at that time he was just He has yin and yang eyes, he can see things clearly that others cannot see, and he is less likely to be invaded by evil things. He has no power.

His current abilities are naturally unable to be sealed as he grows older, and we always force him to use them before gradually recovering. At that time, his abilities were not even half of what they are now.

But he was not an ordinary person after all, so he felt something was wrong. He yelled at me, who was already exhausted, to stop flopping around, and then he rubbed the yin and yang eyes between my eyebrows and dived into the water.

He dived for a long time, a little too long, and silently, as if he had been swept away by the water. I was so frightened that I thought something had happened to him, so I forgot his instructions and dived in.

The water was cold and dark, and I couldn't dive very deep. The light from the flashlight could still pass through the water, allowing me to vaguely see things within one meter. I dived next to Nana, who was struggling but out of reach, but I didn't see any other parts of her body underwater. That is to say, Nana's head and shoulders were above the water, but there was nothing under the water!

I was startled, and I choked several times. When I looked carefully, I saw that there was indeed nothing. The struggling 'Nana' on the water was still shouting, and the anxious classmates on the shore were also responding, while A Zhan didn't say anything at all. No trace.

In desperation, I crawled ashore without swimming, because I couldn't see anything clearly in the water, so I wanted to get a waterproof flashlight, seal it in plastic, and then go into the water to look for the two missing people.

While I asked my classmates to help me get the simple underwater lighting, I ran to look at the rope tied around Ah Zhan's waist, trying to pull him back. But when I pulled the rope, I found that there was no relay on the other end. It turned out that the rope had already been broken! The classmate in charge of A Zhan was so anxious that he didn't even notice the situation.

The situation became more urgent now. The male classmates were frightened, and the female classmates were so frightened that they cried. I was afraid that someone else would get into trouble, so I didn't ask them for help and just went back by myself. But when I was halfway through the swim, I heard a "plop", and then I saw Zhao Jiang's thin body jumping into the dark pool. I didn't know who he was. What are you going to do? I only heard the classmates on the shore shouting randomly, but I couldn’t hear anything clearly!

I couldn't care about him and wanted to find Azhan and Nana. Although what happened under the water made me scared, I knew I had to go down no matter how scared I was, otherwise I might lose my best friend and my first serious crush forever. girl.

I swam hard to Nana's side, but the current pushed me away several times. It wasn't until I used the help of several protruding sharp rocks that I tried my best to reach my destination, but at the same time I realized that something was wrong. ―――

As a grown man, I was unable to maintain my balance due to the impact of the turbulent water. How could she, a delicate little girl, float there without being washed away, and stayed there for more than ten minutes!

When I realized this, I was scared and couldn't believe it. I hurriedly dived into the water to confirm it, and shined a flashlight on it and looked twice in a row - but there was still nothing under the water!

I believed that we had encountered something strange, so I hurriedly and quietly moved away through the current. When I looked up, I saw 'Nana' still waving her arms and shouting to the shore, "Save me, don't abandon me." !Help, pull me up!" The miserable voice tempted more classmates to rescue her. I turned around and saw that two boys were already about to enter the water!

We cannot allow more people to go into the water, otherwise more people will be unable to get out!

This was what I was thinking at the time, so I moved the light of the flashlight to 'Nana's' face!

Nana originally had semi-long hair, but now her long hair hung down to the water's surface and completely covered her face, like a thick bush of waterweed. Moreover, her skinny arms and pale palms had long hair. The three-inch nails prove that this is not the original Nana, but something that makes us mistakenly think it is Nana and has her voice!

I was petrified, the light of the flashlight kept shining on 'her' face without moving. 'She' seemed to be quite slow to react to light. I kept shining on 'her' for more than ten seconds before 'she' slowly turned her head to look at me.

Underneath the messy long hair as dark as night was a face so white that it was dazzlingly white. I desperately tried to see her facial features under the cover of her long hair, but I couldn't see anything.

'Her' face was white and flat, with nothing but a mouth.

The baby's mouth, small and soft, without teeth, was grinning at me!

I was so frightened that I took off the flashlight and dropped it in the water, but in the pitch darkness, I actually felt that 'she' was going to lean down and kiss me!

'She' came so quickly, I only had the image of the baby's mouth in my mind, and I even felt the moisture from the kiss coming, with a hint of rancid smell.

I didn't have time to hide, but suddenly I felt a hand pulling me down under the water. I struggled instinctively, but was still pulled into the water. I couldn't see clearly who it was in the chaos. After about ten seconds, I was pushed out of the water again.

When I looked again, I saw Ah Zhan standing in front of me, holding a small black stick in his hand. It's disrespectful to say that, but in fact, the little black stick as big as a palm is the famous Blood Wood Sword. However, with Ah Zhan's skill at that time, he could only enlarge the rare treasure of this world to five inches at most. It was not like it can be sacrificed now. up, and is harder than steel.

But you have seen the ability of the Blood Wood Sword. At that time, even if it was a little bigger, it could deal with ordinary spirits. What's more, the water ghost didn't expect this. In fact, even I didn't expect that this guy actually carried it with him. Holding his father's relics.

There was just a "bang" sound, as if something fell heavily into the water. The water splashed up to two or three meters high, and then "Nana" disappeared.

"Hurry up!" A Zhan shouted to me. I didn't have time to look back, so I just kept moving forward. The classmates on the shore also tried their best to pull the two of us, and we just rolled onto the shore. Then before we could take a breath, we heard another noise from the classmates. It turned out that Zhao Jiang was also on the shore, and he actually dragged Nana to the shore. He was also rescued!

Zhao Jiang, who is usually the weakest, most inconspicuous, and shyest, can actually be a hero and save a beauty! The others were not as calm as him. They were blinded by the blindness and almost died underwater one by one.

In a daze, I looked into the water and strangely saw a red dress floating on the water. You can feel it is so gorgeous in the dark night, the silk embroidered flowers are so lifelike, the smooth silk shines attractively under the cover of the water waves, floating on the water like a life, quietly, the water flow also It can't be washed away, it seems to be looking at us unwillingly, exuding an alluring charm!

"What is that?" After calming down, the students all saw the thing and couldn't help but ask each other. There were even a few girls who were obsessed with it and wanted to find something to hook it up.

"Leave quickly, don't look around!" Ah Zhan shouted loudly, almost roughly pulling everyone away and pushing us into the forest to keep us away from this strange pool!

The rain was still falling, so we just grabbed our backpacks and left in a hurry. But the moment we left the pool, we heard a baby crying.

Have you ever heard a baby cry that makes your skin crawl? That time, I heard it!

And we didn’t count the number of people, so we didn’t know there were other ‘people’ in the team!
