Soul-eating Golden Coffin - C21

Looking at Zhang Shan, his left foot was already in the orbit, and the distance between them was almost ten metres. I couldn’t care about that woman anymore as I shouted for Zhang Shan and ran towards him. However, Zhang Shan seemed to be unable to hear or see the lights on the locomotive.

The train was so fast that in just two or three seconds, it had already pushed forward several hundred meters. This shouldn’t be an ordinary train. I’m guessing it’s either a train or a high-speed train. In less than three seconds, he was definitely going to crash into Zhang Shan. I had already run to Zhang Shan’s side. I didn’t care about where we were at all, as long as I could pull him down from the metal road. As for the consequences, I didn’t even have time to think about it.

Zhang Shan was tall and strong, so normal pulling might not work on him. So I held him by the waist, and then I fell backwards, trying to pull him back by force, using our momentum. But in the end, I still forgot one thing. Zhang Shan had already walked to the opposite of that woman, which meant that he had already reached the middle of the railway bridge.

Following the inertia of my fall, although Zhang Shan was pulled back, he was still nearly 1.9 meters tall. The railings on the nearby railway bridge had no effect at all. There was a dull thud, and the back of my head hit the guardrail as I fell backward. The impact made my eyes sparkle. After being dazed for just a moment, my hand loosened. Without my support, the fence only brushed against Zhang Shan symbolically for a moment, but was unable to stop him as he fell into the river below the bridge.

Ignoring my headache, I looked down through the gap in the iron railing. Zhang Shan fell face down. If he fell into the river, there was still hope. If he fell on the riverside path, I’ll just wait to collect his corpse.

Before I could see what was going on below, the train whizzed past me. It was definitely a moving train, and the strong flow of air hurt my face and eardrums. I even felt the possibility of being sucked away by it. I could only cling to the fence, and if I let go, the only ending would be being sucked off the train and bounced off, and I would die without a doubt.

Five seconds later, the train pulled away from me and headed forward with the wind. After a while, I let go of the fence and lay down beside the embankment, breathing heavily. Even though it was only five seconds, every second was unbearable for me. It didn’t just carry the wind, it also carried all the strength in my body.

While I was still gasping for air, I looked over to the other side of the tracks. The woman was still standing there. The wind had stopped and I could finally see her face. Beneath the pure-white skin was a gorgeous and exquisite face. Although she did not look very young, at least in her thirties, she did not lack the grace a young girl should have. Who was she? Why sing here late at night? And actually caused Zhang Shan to fall into a daze?

Zhang Shan? That’s right! Only then did I remember Zhang Shan, and I couldn’t care anymore to study this woman, as I struggled to get up and look under the bridge. When I gradually saw the darkness under the bridge, I realized that a large black object was floating on the surface of the river not far ahead. It should be Zhang Shan.

I quickly stood up and walked to the end of the bridge, holding on to the railing. Before he got off the bridge, he looked back and saw that the woman had already disappeared. I got off the line, walked from left to right, climbed over the fence, and jumped into the river. The water in the Golden River wasn’t too deep. The water level in front of the North Gate was already quite high. It was only a little more than a meter long and had just reached my ribs.

At this time, I had already recovered some of my strength, and slowly drew towards Zhang Shan who was floating. When we got closer, I realized that Zhang Shan was floating on top of the water with his face facing downwards. This posture meant that he couldn’t breathe, and furthermore, he fell head first. After so many minutes, I didn’t really dare to hope that I was still alive.

When I was about to grab onto Zhang Shan’s right foot, he suddenly moved, raising his upper body up. While gasping for breath, he scolded loudly, “Damn, you’re suffocating me to death!”

Seeing me looking at him with a face filled with fear, Zhang Shan wiped the water off his face and asked: “Where is this? How did we get in? My god, how can it be so smelly! ”

The Jinshui River had long since become stagnant, and because of the lack of management and the habit of the coastal residents of dumping garbage into the river, the river was extremely stinky. This was also the reason why many people didn’t walk along the river. Along the way, they would smell a terrible stench. It was really unbearable. If it wasn’t because I saw that Zhang Shan’s life and death are uncertain, in order to get him, I wouldn’t have come down even if I was beaten to death.

Without waiting for my answer, Zhang Shan had already discovered our current location. Unexpectedly, he didn’t ask me about what had happened just now, but instead hurriedly said: “Quickly go ashore. Fast! “Faster!” With that, he swam towards the shore. By the time I realized it, he was at the bottom of the embankment, one hand on the railing, the other waving at me, signaling for me to hurry.

I was about to move when I felt something under the river catch my ankle and I couldn’t move a muscle. I didn’t call Zhang Shan over to help. Thinking that it was just ordinary trash, I first squatted down to touch my ankle and tried to untie it.

Due to the water level on the river, I had to grope my feet for a bit, so I must soak my entire head in the water. Seeing Zhang Shan being so tight, I did not say anything, took a deep breath, and started groping my ankles.

But at this touch, my whole body began to tremble, because I felt a pair of hands, I don’t know where, under the water holding my ankle.

I wanted to scream, but I realized that I was in the water, and when I opened my mouth I was already out of breath. I drank a few mouthfuls of dirty water.

Seeing that he could not hold it in any longer, he stood up and coughed loudly.

After coughing a few times, I immediately called for Zhang Shan for help. “Come help! There are two hands at the bottom of the river holding me, I can’t walk! ”

“What did you say?” After Zhang Shan heard this, he immediately swam over to me from the shore.

Arriving in front of me, he took a deep breath and dived down. In less than two seconds, he reappeared and cried out, “Oh my god! It’s really a lot of manpower! ”

“Nonsense!” Quickly think of a way! ” I was gripped by a pair of hands at the bottom of the river, unable to move. I was on the verge of collapse, and he still had time to determine whether I was telling the truth or not.

“Don’t be in such a hurry, I’ll go take another look.” After Zhang Shan finished speaking, he went back down.

After I anxiously waited for nearly twenty minutes, he floated back up and said with an ashen face, “There’s a corpse in the water. It’s the one that grabbed you.”

“Ah …” My whole body was stiff. I only touched my hands before, and did not think much about it. Now that Zhang Shan had confirmed it, there was indeed a corpse holding onto me underwater, I could be considered to have completely collapsed. Both of my legs had already started to soften from being hard, and upon seeing that, Zhang Shan immediately supported me, speaking in a stern voice: “Stand straight! Do you want to choke to death? ”

“This river… How could this be … There are corpses! ” I said, trembling to myself.

“Although the riverbed has hardened, these hands are sticking out from under the riverbed. I just roughly touched it. There are a series of gaps around your feet, as if someone purposely cut off a piece and filled it in. If I guessed correctly, after the man had died, he had been cast into a concrete block the size of the crevice in the riverbed and then placed here. Coincidentally, I was stepped on by you today, so I didn’t let go of you. This should be a very evil Soul Suppressing Technique. It’s hard to say what its purpose is. I’m afraid that I’ll have to ask the person involved to know. ” Zhang Shan’s analysis was very thorough.

“Don’t say so much… Think of something first… Get me out of here! ” If I wasn’t scared to death, I would have scolded him. Standing in the cold water and being held by a corpse under the water, he was still analyzing the case one by one.

Zhang Shan thought for a moment, then said helplessly: “There’s no other way, I can only get you and the corpse out, and then think of a way to break apart the hand that is grabbing you.”

“This… Is that okay? Didn’t you say… Is it a piece of cement? ” I was much more frightened, and gradually I began to regain my sense of what was happening, no longer short-circuiting my brain as soon as anything happened.

“It shouldn’t be a problem. On one hand, the water is more buoyant, so this corpse won’t take up too much of it either. It won’t be too heavy. Secondly, they might not have been able to repair the cracks as they were in a hurry. So, they should be able to move around. You wait, I’ll try again. If I pat you later, try squatting in the water and using your hands to prop up the riverbed to see if you can get the cement out. ” With that, Zhang Shan dove into the water for the third time.

This time, after half a minute, Zhang Shan still had not floated up. As I waited, I felt a hand tugging at my thigh. After a moment’s hesitation, I took a deep breath and crouched into the water. Since the water was dirty, I didn’t dare to open my eyes. The water was definitely dark, so I might as well not open my eyes.

I crouched down, put my hands on the riverbed, and bent my legs a little, then pushed them up with my hips and waist. There was something slippery about the riverbed, and it was so disgusting, so hard to pull, that I tried twice but failed. By this time the air had run out, and I had to get up and surface again.

Zhang Shan also stood up and took a few breaths: “Looks like it isn’t good to use too much strength, but I have another method, which is to hold it in for a bit, and then …”

“Alright!” Fine! You can say whatever you want, but as long as you hurry up and get me out, I will call you Martial Uncle. ” I didn’t wait for him to finish before I urged him on.

“Fine, you can bear with it!” After Zhang Shan finished speaking, he walked behind me and spread his legs, avoiding the area of the cement under my feet. He wrapped his arms around my waist and started to gather his energy.

Looking at his actions, I finally understood. This guy wants to pick green onions in the dry land!

“Sigh, you guys …” “Ahhh!” Just as I opened my mouth, my waist is tightly gripped. Following which, a strong force pulled me upwards and all the air in my chest was squeezed out in an instant. The arms around my waist and the hands gripping my ankles under the water made me miserable. Under these circumstances, they couldn’t even breathe, so how could they speak?
