Chapter 39 The Black Hand in the Water
Erhu's eyes were wide open, and he was extremely frightened. Before he could react, he was pulled hard by the big hand and made a splash. He had no time to resist and was dragged into the water.
"What the hell is that!"
At this critical moment, Jiang Lang arrived, and he was shocked.
Because he saw a huge black shadow under the water, dragging the two tigers and sinking to the bottom of the water quickly.
Jiang Lang's expression changed, he didn't care much, and quickly dived into the water.
The water below the lake is very turbid, and it is difficult to observe the surrounding situation with the naked eye, but Jiang Lang's five senses are keen, and these cannot affect him at all.
Jiang Lang held his breath and concentrated, and quickly captured the location of the black shadow. His body swam, following him like a shadow, and chased him to the front, grabbed the two tigers, and pulled him towards him.
However, what he didn't expect was that the power of the black shadow was so terrifying that he could not move even an inch.
If you don’t let go, I’ll beat you to death!
Jiang Lang was a little shocked, then suddenly used his strength and punched him.
With the terrifying power he unleashed, he was convinced that it would be enough to penetrate this black shadow.
But an accident happened. When Jiang Lang punched out, the black shadow, as light as a butterfly, dodged away with a strange posture, causing his fist to hit the void.
Just as Jiang Lang was closing his fist, suddenly there was a pulling force in front of his fist, followed by a slender black hand, extremely sticky, climbing up the back of his hand like a cold poisonous snake.
This feeling is so disgusting.
Jiang Lang had goosebumps on his skin. With a flash of light in his palm, there was a thunderbolt, which hit the black hand without mercy, and all five fingers were blown off.
The black shadow let out a shrill wail, retracted its hand, put down the two tigers, and fled deeper into the water. In an instant, it disappeared.
Jiang Lang originally wanted to continue the pursuit, but fighting underwater was really not good for him. Secondly, it was important to bring the two tigers ashore quickly.
So he no longer hesitated, spread out his body skills, and swam towards the shore as quickly as possible.
"Ahem..."
Returning to the shore, Erhu breathed in the fresh air, and his vague consciousness finally came to his senses.
Danniu rushed over to help him, and couldn't help but burst into tears and said: "Erhu, you really scared me to death."
There was no color on Erhu's face. It took a long time before his emotions gradually calmed down and he said, "Am I saved?"
Daniu said: "It was Jiang Lang who saved you."
Hearing the sound, Erhu stood up to thank him for saving his life. Jiang Lang supported him and said: "We will talk about these words later. You can rest for a while."
At this time, Uncle Tiezhu, who heard the commotion, hurried over and quickly asked Jiang Lang and the other three about the situation.
Jiang Lang briefly explained what had just happened. After listening, Uncle Tiezhu immediately frowned and said in surprise: "You said that thing's big hands were covered with black hair, and it was swimming very fast in the water.
Hard to catch with the naked eye?"
"Uncle Tiezhu, do you know the origin of this thing?"
Jiang Lang thought that Uncle Tiezhu was well-informed and should understand this.
Uncle Tiezhu pondered for a moment and said solemnly: "If I go by the characteristics you described, that thing should be a water monkey.
I came to Moon Lake last year and found no trace of the water monkey. I think this terrible beast migrated from elsewhere this year."
Jiang Lang frowned, "Water monkey?"
Uncle Tiezhu said in a deep voice: "It is a terrible beast, its body shape is similar to that of a mountain ape, but it is naturally fond of water, and its speed in the water is faster than that of a fish.
The most peculiar thing is that once the water monkey enters the water, it will become extremely powerful and can tear apart big things like the blue-eyed violent bear with its bare hands. Even ordinary practitioners do not dare to provoke them easily.
The water monkey will die once it reaches the shore, but this thing is so ghostly that it never dares to go ashore and will only hide in the water."
"Uncle Tiezhu, according to what you said, that black shadow really looks like a mountain ape."
Jiang Lang recalled the scene of the underwater battle just now, and his expression couldn't help but move.
Uncle Tiezhu said: "Of course, the most terrifying thing about water monkeys is not this..."
Hearing this, Daniel couldn't help but interjected: "Damn, isn't this scary?
The water monkey pulled the two tigers into the water with just its strength and almost drowned."
"Aren't you going to go fishing?"
Uncle Tiezhu glared at him angrily and scolded him. Daniel shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything.
Uncle Tiezhu asked: "Daniu, let me ask you, why did Erhu go into the water?"
"Didn't you just ask?
Erhu saw the silk dress floating on the water and thought it was a treasure, so he went into the water to pick up the silk dress without hesitation."
Daniel was stunned for a moment, but he answered again.
Uncle Tiezhu looked at Jiang Lang and said, "This is the most terrifying reason for water monkeys.
The water monkey is quite intelligent and extremely cunning. Just like hunters like us, it knows how to put some bait on the water in advance to lure the prey into a trap and then kill it."
"The ferocious beast that takes advantage of people's hearts is really scary."
Jiang Lang agrees with this very much.
"Then if we stay at Anza Camp by Moon Lake at night, wouldn't it be dangerous?"
After listening to Uncle Tiezhu's words, Daniel's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he swallowed his saliva in a panic, not knowing what to do.
Uncle Tiezhu said calmly: "Water monkeys don't dare to leave the water easily. Once they land on the shore, they are like eagles without their sharp claws and beaks. They can only be slaughtered by others."
Then, Uncle Tiezhu warned Jiang Lang: "It is a great blessing that you were able to not only save the two tigers from the water monkey, but also escape unscathed.
But next, you should not easily provoke such ferocious beasts. I heard that the water monkey is very vindictive. Once you anger it, it will not let it go."
Jiang Lang's face moved slightly. He had just used his palm thunder to cut off the water monkey's five fingers. It shouldn't be a big problem... right?
Forget it, if that water monkey is ignorant and dares to retaliate against him, he will let it never come back!
He wasn't even afraid of the three-eyed wolves that were as huge as last time, but he was still afraid of a water monkey?
Jiang Lang has now greatly improved his strength and is confident, so he is naturally fearless.
"In short, everyone, please stay away from Moon Lake from now on. If anyone dares to disobey the advice and go to the lake again, I will break his legs!"
In order to prevent everyone from going to the lake, Uncle Tiezhu finally warned them sternly again.
In fact, there is no need for Uncle Tiezhu’s warning. With Erhu as a living example, no one dares to put themselves in danger.
In the evening, someone accidentally discovered swarms of big fish on the edge of the lake, splashing and snapping on the water, and never leaving. It seemed that they could be caught with just one hand, without any effort at all.
If everyone had not experienced the incident of the two tigers, everyone would definitely rush forward without hesitation and experience the joy of a bumper harvest when they saw this scene.
But now, there is only caution and caution.
After a while, some big fish appeared among the fish, with pearls in their mouths, shining silver, which looked like rare treasures at first glance.
Even if everyone's eyes were burning and their hearts were itching, they didn't dare to come forward.
