Chapter 39 The Water Monster

Before entering the bath, Wang Lang must prepare enough fresh water for drinking. Since a large number of plants rot in the swamp area all the year round, the water cannot be drunk directly. It needs to be filtered through sedimentation and boiled before it can be barely drunk.

After a day of rest at the edge of the bathing marsh, Wang Lang and the others collected enough fresh water to drink for two days. Today they are going to enter this legendary place of death.

Wang Lang led the people along the edge of the swamp for about an hour, and finally found a place where people could pass.

Then let people tie ropes around their waists, grab sticks, and line up into the water below their calves.

Wang Lang walked at the front of the team, holding a prepared wooden stick, and kept testing the depth of the water in front of him. Among the lush aquatic plants, a few otters lying on their backs on the water were disturbed by these sudden intruders , They were vigilant, turned their round eyes to glance at these tall creatures, quickly grabbed the unfinished fish on their belly, slipped into the water, and splashed a wave.

When encountering a place where the water is below the chest, short children can only ride on the necks of adults to pass through this water area. People stop and go like this for half a day, and finally found a place that can accommodate them in the afternoon. land.

On the tens of square meters of land in front, there are many lush weeds and trees, and the dense plants almost occupy the entire space here. People circled around this land before finding a place where they could go ashore.

After landing on the shore, people rubbed their white feet soaked in blisters. Fortunately, there were no such things as leeches in the water. If they were bitten by blood-sucking insects, it would basically be impossible to save them. Wang Lang couldn't help feeling sorry for himself. luck.

Walking in the water is very exhausting, and the forward speed is very slow. Wang Lang looked back at the forest behind him. In half a day, people only walked less than two kilometers.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly there was a sudden sound of falling into the water not far away.

Such a loud noise made Wang Lang immediately vigilant, holding a spear in his hand and staring at the water surface vigilantly.

"Everyone, be careful! There is something under the water!" Wang Lang instructed without looking back, not daring to leave the water for a moment.

The crowd immediately became tense. The women and children stayed away from the shore as much as possible. The men stood on the shore holding their spears high. If the thing under the water dared to attack, the people who were waiting would definitely teach it an unforgettable lesson.

In the water area not far away, something seems to be approaching this side quickly. On the calm water surface, two waves are separated by the rapid movement of that thing, and soon people see a huge and blurry shadow under the water surface.

People's faces turned pale. Although they couldn't see its whole picture clearly, they already knew that this thing was very big. With such a large body, people would have no strength to resist if they were in the water.

The thing swam back and forth quickly around the shore, as if looking for a suitable opportunity to attack.

After observing underwater for a while, it felt that these two-legged creatures standing on land should not be threatening, so it decided to attack these prey. Its huge body rushed out of the water quickly, with a flat mouth. With a huge mouth full of rows of sharp teeth, it rushed towards the nearest black stone.

Seeing such a huge head rushing towards him, Hei Shi turned pale with fright. He had no time to react to any attack, and subconsciously jumped back, avoiding the terrifying big mouth, but was caught by the protruding tree under his feet. Root stumbled and fell to the ground.

Seeing its prey running away, the monster stretched its two short and thick front legs out of the water, trying to rush up. As a result, this panicked prey didn't pay attention to other humans at all. In its cognition, these The creature is no different from the deer that often come here to drink water, and its clumsy movements are even easier to catch than those deer.

The horn standing beside him was also taken aback, but seeing that the black stone was in danger, he quickly threw the spear in his hand towards the monster.

The sharp spear pierced through the chin, and the monster let out a scream like a baby crying, shaking its huge head, trying to throw the spear stuck in the chin, the sudden sharp pain completely enraged Its ferocity gave up chasing and killing Heishi, turned around and rushed towards the corner.

Seeing that he escaped unharmed, Heishi also reacted, quickly got up from the ground, held up the spear and stabbed the monster's head indiscriminately. The round head of the monster was soon bloody and bloody. In pain, the monster tried to turn around and escape from the group of dangerous creatures.

Seeing that it wanted to escape, Wang Lang had a dark secret. If there was such a thing underwater, people like himself could only be trapped to death on this dozens of square meters of land.

"Don't let him go into the water, kill him!" Wang Lang roared angrily, and threw the spear in his hand vigorously.

When Wang Lang's words just fell, the others reacted quickly and threw their spears at the monster. The half of the monster's body on the shore wanted to turn around and go into the water, but its bulky body was extremely inconvenient to move on land, and it couldn't escape at all. The rain of spears roared, and the sharp spear points pierced its fragile skin in an instant. Seven or eight spears pierced his body like a hedgehog.

Two spears pierced its head directly, and it was nailed to the ground without even screaming.

Wang Lang went over and rubbed the monster's head vigorously with a wooden stick. Seeing that the monster was really killed by his people, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the monster was really dead, people wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and grinned foolishly.

This thing was a threat when it was alive, but in the eyes of people it was food that could fill their stomachs when it was dead. People tied ropes to the monster's two front legs and dragged it to the shore with great effort.

When the monster exposed its entire body, everyone was taken aback. Including the tail, the huge body with a length of more than four or five meters was very visually impressive. Wang Lang looked at the monster carefully. Just now, he felt that this thing looked familiar. Now It was only after a close observation that I realized that this thing is simply a salamander magnified many times.
In the previous world, if you were caught eating wild salamanders, you would definitely be sent to prison for a few years. Now that such a big salamander-like thing is in front of you, as a member of the big foodie empire, you will naturally not let it go A rare game.

After Wang Lang pulled out the spear stuck on the monster, he said, "Light a fire, let's taste what this monster is like today."

When people heard this, they all licked their lips and laughed. A few bold children walked up to the monster and kicked the monster's head with their feet, climbing up and down on the monster.

Hei Shi volunteered to come out with a stone axe. It was the thing that jumped out to scare him just now. Now that it fell into his hands, Hei Shi was already ready to tear this thing into pieces.
