On the salvage boat, the two people in charge of the salvage only felt a weight in their hands, and couldn't help but shout in a deep voice, "We've got something!"
"Judging by the weight, it should be him!"
"Quick, pull it up!"
Amidst bursts of exclamations and commands, the two immediately began to pull the net in their hands...
At the same time, Qi Zixiao, who was originally persevering, opened her eyes and suddenly discovered that she was covered by a net and was being pulled away.
"???"
This world isn't peaceful either!
She raised an eyebrow.
She was cultivating at the bottom of the water, yet she was being attacked?
She didn't know what was happening above, but now that she was covered by a net, it was obvious that something was attacking her!
Fortunately, the Waterflow Body has barely reached the entry level...
Although she used the Turtle Breath Technique, Qi Zixiao was still feeling very uncomfortable after being underwater for so long. She couldn't help but grab the large net, exert all her strength, and tear it apart.
Bang bang bang!
The threads of the large net snapped one after another. In a short while, Qi Zixiao broke free. After glancing at the large net, she grabbed it again and exerted force!
Is the cultivation speed too fast?
Letting a max-level account power-level a level one account, it would be strange if the speed was slow.
On the boat...
A huge force came from below.
"Damn it!"
The two salvaging 'strongmen' felt a weight in their hands, their faces greatly alarmed: "What great strength!"
"We can't hold on!"
"Ah... let go quickly!"
The two staggered, almost being pulled into the water. They exclaimed and let go at the same time, which prevented them from being pulled into the water.
Even so, they both fell on their butts because they used too much force...
"What's going on?"
A police officer asked.
The two strongmen's faces were pale.
The person in charge of the salvage boat lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and then said faintly: "I'm afraid... this person can't be salvaged."
"What do you mean?" The police officers were puzzled.
"This..." He pondered for a moment before saying: "If I say it, you won't arrest me, right? Accuse me of engaging in feudal superstition or something?"
"Knowing it's feudal superstition, you still think that way?"
The police officers also understood.
"It's not that I think that way, but we in this line of work have seen too many mysterious things, even more mysterious than this..."
"This really can't be explained by science!"
The police officers looked at each other, and for a moment, they were a little unsure.
Although everyone was talking about materialism, this matter was really a bit difficult to explain, very mysterious!
The salvage net had clearly salvaged something, and everything was calm at first, but after pulling it halfway, it suddenly started exerting force?
They also saw the reaction of the two strongmen just now. They had definitely pulled out all their strength, but they still couldn't hold the net...
So, what exactly did the net catch?!
A big fish?
That doesn't make sense. How could a big fish not make a single sound at first, and then suddenly struggle later?
Could it be that the fish was sleeping at first?
Besides, to burst out with so much strength inside the net, how big would that fish have to be?!
Could it be…
Is there really such a thing?
Just then, Old Third Wang, the skinny old man in charge of the salvage boat, said faintly, "In my opinion, there are water ghosts... Not just this matter, but also when he jumped into the lake."
"You all said that after he jumped into the lake, there was no movement at all. Think about it carefully, is that normal?"
"Even if you want to commit suicide, people can't control themselves under extreme pain. In other words, he couldn't have struggled at all before."
"But the lake surface was still without any ripples, which is enough to prove that he didn't struggle, but why?!"
"Obviously! The water ghost in the lake held him back, or even fascinated him, so he didn't struggle or react at all..."
A young policewoman couldn't help but take a step back: "Why are you making it sound so mysterious?"
"It's quite mysterious, but it's also very possible." The person in charge chuckled, with a somewhat unfathomable taste: "But I'm also good at this."
"It's just that... this thing has a lot of backlash on me."
Police officers: "..."
Spectating fishermen: "..."
"Awesome!"
"This guy wants money from the Police Uncle!"
"This is not just wanting money from the Police Uncle, but also wanting a lot of money from the Police Uncle."
"Are you crazy? Is this guy really not afraid of being caught?"
Just then, two very horrified strongmen on the boat suddenly exclaimed, "Something is coming!"
"Be careful!"
Bang!!!
The salvage boat made a muffled sound. In an instant, there was a series of cracking sounds, and then... lake water poured in!
The bottom of the salvage boat... was leaking!
"Hiss!!!"
Everyone gasped and looked around the boat.
"Ah, someone!"
"It's a figure, and it's diving down again!"
"Damn, is there really a water ghost?"
"Damn it!!! Are you kidding me? Am I seeing a ghost?"
The fishermen were all numb from their scalps, and their tailbones were almost numb from fright!
Judging from this, there really is a water ghost in this lake? Not only can it kill people, but it can also directly damage the boat. I was actually fishing here just now?!
Isn't this like the old man eating arsenic, tired of living?
The police officers' faces were also very ugly...
Due to the refraction of sleep light and other reasons, they couldn't see what happened clearly at all. They could only roughly see a figure quickly sinking into the bottom of the lake near the salvage boat.
This made them, who originally didn't believe in any water ghosts, feel apprehensive.
The two strongmen were almost scared to pee. At this moment, how dare they do any salvage?
They immediately started the salvage boat with a hole in the bottom and rushed to the shore...
What, why not just jump into the water?
Damn it, who would dare to jump in this situation?!
Underwater.
Qi Zixiao glanced at the sinking ship and swam in the opposite direction...
On the shore, the police officers looked at the two distraught strongmen, their hearts filled with turmoil.
Could there really be a water ghost?!
A huge question mark 'popped up' in their minds.
Under normal circumstances, they would naturally never think this way, but today's incident and everything they had witnessed made it impossible for them not to.
Because there was no explanation!
Unless they could retrieve the young man's body and find the thing that snatched the net and damaged the salvage boat, no one could explain this, it was terrifying!
"What do we do?"
They looked at each other, all at a loss for a moment.
Old Third Wang seized the opportunity to speak, "I really have a way, I..."
"Don't say it!"
The police officer in charge waved his hand, "What era is this? Still believing in ghosts and gods? I don't believe it!"
"Report to higher authorities, dispatch divers, and mobilize advanced equipment. I don't believe we can't retrieve it!"
"If all else fails... can't we just pump out the water?!"
