Chapter 305: The Man Who Shared a Boat

With a smile on his face, the bar owner smiled and took the cup from Su Lei's hand.

Turn around and come to the water maker to pick up the water.

"Got the news you wanted, young man?"

Su Lei thought about it and said, "Is there a connection between the ghost ship and the government's ban on the sea?"

"No, no, the town has just issued a separate no-sea order. ”

The old man placed the cup full of water in front of Su Lei.

"I'll give you another piece of candy. ”

As he spoke, the old man took out another candy wrapped in a green candy wrapper from under the counter.

"The story of the ghost boat is just a concoction by a group of fishermen who don't have a job. ”

"Is it real?"

Sulei reached out and pressed the candy.

"I want to check it out. ”

The old man stared at Su Lei for a while, and then looked at the orange yellow clear eyes.

"I have no reason to stop you, but I advise you, the sea is dangerous, and we, fishermen, are always in awe of it. ”

"Three kilometres west of the bar, there's a small marina, and the ban on the town doesn't always keep some people in their minds at bay. ”

"The closest to the ghost ship haunt is Seagull Reef, an uninhabited island. ”

"Thank you. ”

Suray reached for the candy and pressed a bill under the cup.

"The extra is your tip. ”

"What a generous guest. ”

The old man took out the banknote, looked at the light source, and couldn't help but whistle.

After going out, the air changed its smell, and the fishy smell that entered the nasal cavity was much lighter.

Su Lei tore the candy wrapper open, and the faint mint fragrance dispelled the alcohol and onion flavor in his mouth.

The main road in the town is clear and leads straight to the marina.

However, according to the bar owner, Suray needs to find another small pier.

There are very few people on the streets, and the emergence of the ban on the sea has worn out people's enthusiasm for consumption.

Su Lei swept his eyes and saw a four-wheeled agricultural locomotive turn around the corner of the street.

The locomotive was equipped with four large buckets, and as the body shook, water splashed from time to time.

Next to the bucket were bundles of dried fish and wrapped bread.

Puff –

A bag of bread was dangled to the ground because it was placed too high.

The locomotive was ringing everywhere except for the horn, and the sound of the bread falling was not heard by the driver.

"Hey, sir, your bread is gone!"

Sulei caught up, picked up the bread, and ran a few steps to catch up with the four-wheeled agricultural locomotive.

Squeak –

The brake pads made a screeching sound, and the locomotive slid forward half a meter before it stopped.

Su Lei shook the bread in his hand at the driver, and the driver immediately understood what was happening.

"Thank you. ”

The driver was a man in his 40s, with purple-red skin on his face, which had been caused by years of sea breeze.

Because of years of fighting the sea breeze, the eyes have developed the habit of squinting.

"Looks like you need help?"

The driver looked up and down at the strange combination of Suray and Tangerine.

Su Lei's dress is incompatible with the dress of the fishermen in the town, more like a tourist who comes to play.

"I wanted to go up to the little dock in town. ”

"It's the kind of dock that can go to sea." ”

"Oh?"

The driver's eyebrows were raised, and his squinted eyes were slightly open.

"Don't you know? ”

"So I'm looking for that little pier. ”

Sulei's reaction to the driver is not surprising.

"There is no shortage of brave people in life. ”

"Come on, I'll pull you over. ”

The driver engine car, Sulei jumped on the other side of the co-pilot.

The car suddenly blew into the town's side road.

Su Lei chatted with the driver all the way, and from the conversation, he knew that the driver was the lighthouse keeper on the top of the hill next to the town.

This time I went down the mountain to purchase supplies.

"It's here. ”

Thomas, the lamp keeper, steers the steering wheel with both hands and drives the car through an alley.

At the end of the alley, it suddenly opened up.

A small leeward wharf, with an area of only more than 600 square meters, only four or five small boats are moored in the wharf.

"Sue, if you're just looking for thrills, be sure to come back before dark. ”

Thomas said earnestly to Sulei.

"Since my grandfather, our family has been lamp keepers. ”

"According to the legend among our lantern keepers, in the place where the ghost ship haunts, there is also the appearance of the Siren. ”

"When the moon rises, the Siren bewitches the travelers of the sea with their songs, and they eat the body of the traveler, while the soul is imprisoned forever by the ghost ship. ”

"Ghost ships do exist, and whenever I look out at night, I can hear the weeping of the ghosts on their masts. ”

Surey smiled at him and slammed his fist with Thomas.

"Thomas, I'm just going to the sea to relax. ”

"Looking forward to seeing you again. ”

Thomas's little train abruptly departed.

Standing on the embankment, Sulei shouted at the fishermen who were busy on the fishing boats.

"Gentlemen, can you take me for a while, I want to go to Seagull Reef. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the people stopped what they were doing and looked at Su Lei in unison.

"I'll pay. ”

Su Lei pulled out a roll of bills, "$500!"

"We're not going there, the devil is there waiting for us. ”

"No one wants to go there and die. ”

The fishermen on the fishing boat chattered and shook their heads.

"What about another volume?"

Su Lei took out another roll, and held two rolls of banknotes in his hand, and some people looked at each other.

"Hey, do you want to die? Think of your missing friends. ”

The companion on one side admonished viciously.

At this time, a voice came from a distance.

"I can take you without taking your money. ”

Everyone's eyes shifted to that side, and an old man with gray hair was waving at Su Lei.

"Isn't that Chagan. ”

"I heard that his son had disappeared into the devil's mist. ”

"Poor Chagan, there are grandchildren to raise. ”

People on fishing boats whispered.

Su Lei followed the voice to a slightly old fishing boat, bowed down, and repeated what he had just said to the old man on the boat.

"Everybody says it's dangerous there. ”

"Come on, child, and I'll take you. ”

"If the devil really exists, then it shouldn't hide in the fog. ”

The old man wore a shiny cross around his neck.

"I'm not afraid, my son was taken away by the ghost ship, and if I meet that ship, I will definitely scuttle its hull and rescue my son!"

"I'm not going to take you a penny. ”

Su Lei nodded, jumped up, and landed firmly on the deck.

"When I put away the cable, we'll set off at once. ”

"There's also a lady in the cabin who also goes to Seagull Reef, and you can talk about it. ”

Although Chagan was old, his muscles were very bright, and he circled the thick rope in the corner of the deck.

Is it the same person who goes to Seagull Reef? Or is it a woman?

Su Lei was intrigued by this.

With his head down, he slipped into the slightly dimly lit cabin.

The conditions of the small fishing boat are naturally not comparable to those of Delvin's luxury yachts.

In the cabin, the smell of engine oil and fishy smell are mixed together, and there is a layer of fine water droplets on the bulkhead.

"Hello. ”

Su Lei saw a woman sitting on the side of the cabin with a black veil and intricate jewelry on her head.

"Hello. ”

The woman raised her eyes, glanced at Su Lei, and stopped talking.

On the contrary, it was the orange on Su Lei's shoulder that aroused her more interest, and her eyes fell on the orange for a long time without taking it off.

"Do you like cats too?"
