Wow...

Guan Ning followed closely behind and also surfaced, breathing rapidly and adjusting his heart rate, but he was much calmer than Hua Wuque.

"Damn it, I was almost killed by the water plants." Hua Wuque cursed in a low voice in embarrassment.

Guan Ning said disdainfully, "You've done too many bad things in your daily life, and the wronged spirits under the water are seeking revenge for you."

Hua Wuque's face was filled with horror, and he didn't dare to speak.

"Hurry and take a look. Have we reached the place where the gold was sunk?" Guan Ning heard the footsteps on the shore and became alert. He could clearly feel that the banks of this section of the river were heavily guarded, with many spies and eyes. Many anchored ships had lighthouses for lookout.

It’s so late, it’s not available anywhere else.

Hua Wuque glanced around and said, "This is it, this is it!"

"But we have to swim to the center of the river!"

Guan Ning took a deep breath without saying a word and dived over.

Hua Wuque was a little scared when he saw this. After all, the center of the river was very deep and there were a lot of aquatic plants. If he was not careful, something bad would happen again. But Guan Ning had already gone, and he didn't dare to stay here alone, so he gritted his teeth and followed.

The calm river surface began to ripple slightly, startling the Hua family on the boat and bending over the railing to look down.

"I thought I heard some noise just now."

"Noise? Where is it?"

"Nothing, don't make a fuss. It's late at night and it's scary."

"I'm afraid someone from the Changsun family will call."

"Didn't you see that after the incident the day before yesterday, the young guard from Changsun's family brought hundreds of people to confront our Hua family, demanding an explanation from us? Both sides started fighting!"

"Hiss, why did Master Hua go over there to cause trouble and kill so many people? Even if Master Hua was drunk, he wouldn't be so impulsive. Now, the entire Fengdu River is under martial law."

"The Changsun family has declared that if the real culprit is not found, they will go to war with our Hua family!"

"Yes, I was there that night too. If the other three families hadn't intervened and acted as peacemakers, a war would have broken out that night!"

"So how was it finally resolved?"

"Our patriarch has promised to hand over Hua Wuque. Now both sides are looking for Master Hua. I heard there are two outsiders as well."

"The head of the family has already given the order. Once the person is found, kill him immediately."

"what?"

"Master Hua, but..."

"But what but? The master has so many sons, he doesn't need this one."

"Shh, stop talking. Be careful not to let the higher-ups hear us. They're furious right now. It has nothing to do with us. We're just responsible for guarding this section of the river. If anything goes wrong, we'll all die!"

The discussions on the deck gradually became quieter and quieter until they disappeared.

The dark clouds dispersed, and the bright moonlight shone on the Fengdu River, making it look extremely desolate.

At this moment, Guan Ning had dived to the bottom of the river. The temperature here was much colder than on the surface, and the riverbed was extremely muddy and covered with aquatic plants. Not to mention the visibility, he would die here if he was not careful.

While swimming, Guan Ning was suddenly startled!

A rotten corpse suddenly appeared under his body, with white bones and a hideous face. When he pulled away the water plants, he saw countless skeletons inside!

These people should have been killed by the five major families, right?

They could not be buried and were forever drowned in this cold and dirty riverbed.

Guan Ning became more and more frightened. It was hard to imagine how many people had been killed here... No wonder people upstream and downstream simply didn't eat the fish in Fengdu River.

The sight beneath the riverbed was shocking, and it also made Guan Ning extremely disgusted with the five major families that occupied this place.

suddenly.

Hua Wuque pulled Guan Ning's trouser leg hard. Guan Ning turned around, her long hair flying in the water.

I just saw him pointing in one direction.

Guan Ning went with the flow, as agile as a fish in the water, and very fast. Hua Wuque was a very good swimmer, and after seeing Guan Ning's swimming skills, he was immediately impressed.

Guan Ning crossed the gloomy riverbed and pulled aside a layer of wildly growing aquatic plants, and his eyes were shocked!

I saw that there was a depression in the center of the riverbed, which was very strange. The overall horizontal height was much lower than the riverbed, like a meteorite crater.
