Chapter Seventy-Five: The Legend

By the time dawn was approaching, the search and rescue personnel had already changed several batches. Six people were salvaged and neatly placed on stretchers, and Chen Mo was not sure how many people had jumped into the sea, so he still asked people to search near the five small islands.

Gu Youhan squatted beside one of the corpses, his head bowed and his mouth pursed, his hands clenched into fists.

It was a girl his age, she was the last to be salvaged, she had been soaked in the water for the longest time, her face was white, and her lips were blue. Like the other five, she also had her eyes open, but the look in her eyes was a little unpredictable, like yearning and relief.

This dead girl is Gu Yue's classmate, Lin Shanshan.

"Let's go. Chen Mo went up and patted Gu Yue on the shoulder, pulling him up from the ground, "Zhuo Ling called, he found a rumor with a breakthrough, and now everyone needs you and Zhuo Ling's analytical ability." ”

Gu Yue lowered his head and followed Chen Mo's side, and was silent for a while before he spoke, "I'll make a call first." ”

"Hey, Gu Yue. It's only five thirty o'clock in the morning, and Xia Ying is still asleep, when she hears the phone and mutters, rubbing her eyes vigorously.

"Teacher. ”

"What's wrong?" Sensing that something was wrong with Gu Yue's tone, Xia Ying was startled and suddenly sobered up.

"I'm sorry. There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, "I couldn't save it." ”

Xia Ying didn't react at first, and then her eyes widened, and she was a little unacceptable for a while. I used to hear about people dying on the news or elsewhere, and I didn't feel much about it, but at most I felt sorry for it, because everyone was a stranger.

But when there is a real accident with the people around you, the impact is absolutely huge. Especially when the other party is still her student, just a few days ago she was a lively little girl, and in the blink of an eye, it was gone.

"I'm sorry. ”

"Gu Yue, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault. Xia Ying then remembered that the young man on the other end of the phone must be more uncomfortable than her, listening to his slight cough, Xia Ying woke up suddenly, it is still more than five o'clock in the morning, that is to say, since he called him at noon yesterday, he has not rested?

"Gu You......" Xia Ying's heart was slightly sour, somehow, she felt a little sorry for this big boy, she thought about it, and she didn't know how to comfort her for a while, so she could only ask dryly, "Are you okay?"

"It's fine. ”

"I ...... How can I help you?"

Gu Yue was stunned, his heart warmed, and he shook his head, "I'm just informing you first, so that you can be mentally prepared." ”

She ...... How did you die?" the topic itself was rather heavy, and both of them seemed a little depressed.

“…… Drowning. ”

"Yes...... Suicide?" Xia Ying's voice trembled slightly when she asked this question.

"That's how it was reported. ”

Xia Ying vaguely understood what Gu Yue didn't say, and the two sides fell silent again, and finally the woman took a deep breath, "Gu Yue, you must pay attention to safety, you are also my student, I don't want you to have an accident." You...... I must come back safely. ”

Gu Yue was stunned, felt that his eyes were a little sore, raised his head to look at the dawn that was about to jump out of the sea level, and his heart trembled slightly, "Teacher, I suddenly have a little ...... Missed you. ”

"What's the matter? Your voice was too soft for me to hear clearly. Xia Ying's tone was a little eager.

"No, nothing. Gu Yue retracted his gaze and turned to walk towards Chen Mo and the others who were already waiting in the car, "I'm going to a meeting." ”

"Well, call me if you have something. ”

"Definitely. ”

Back at the headquarters of the Pillar of Life and Death in Qinglong Province, Gu Yue and a few people went to the temporary dormitory to take a shower, changed into wet uniforms, and went to have some breakfast to fill their stomachs, and then went to the conference room to gather.

"I'm sending you a printed copy of the rumors of Dead Island. On the big screen in the conference room, the figures of Zhuo Ling and Fu Chuan appeared. Soon, the staff here in Xinsu City printed out the printout and sent it to Chen Mo and the others.

"This is what I found out in Lin Shanshan's computer records using the identity of Officer Zhao Xiaojun. Zhuo Ling and Fu Chuan also sat down in the conference room of the Pillar of Life and Death Headquarters in Yisu City, waiting for Gu to finish reading the information in their hands.

Tales of the Dead Island.

Legend has it that eight young people met to visit Dead Island. At that time, Death Island was not called this name, but "Seven Star Island", with a total of seven small islands, arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper.

When eight young people meet to go out to sea to watch, they encounter a tsunami that is unprecedented in history. Seeing that they were about to be swallowed up by the tsunami, a strange big-headed monster fish jumped onto their boat with the waves.

The fish looked at the desperate looks of the eight people, and actually spat out that it could save them. But it was hungry now, and had to sacrifice a man to be its food so that it could have enough to take them out of the tsunami range.

The eight young men were thrilled to hear that they would survive, but when they realized that one of them would need to be sacrificed, they began to hesitate. Time waits for no one, and the strange fish that spits people is urging them. Finally, the eldest young man stood up and said he was willing to be food.

When the others heard this, they also stood up and said that they were willing to be food. The strange fish looked at everyone and smiled strangely, and finally it chose the young man at the beginning and ate him in front of the other seven.

Immediately afterwards, the face of the young man who was eaten actually appeared on the big head of the strange fish. Of course, it made good on its promise and used its divine power to bring the remaining seven young people out of the tsunami safely.

A year after this incident, the other seven young people still dream of the strange fish with a human face in their dreams. On the same day of the second year, they agreed to go to Seven Star Island to pay homage to the young man who had traded his life for the survival of others.

This time, they met the strange fish again, and the strange fish was still holding the dead young man's face. It jumped aboard the seven young men again and asked them if they remembered the young man when they saw the face.

The seven of them cried bitterly, saying that they missed them very much. The strange fish smiled again, pointing to the six islands and telling them that it could actually resurrect the young man.

As long as they fill in another island with stones at the location of the island that was swept away by last year's huge tsunami and restore the shape of the Big Dipper, it will have a way to help them resurrect the young man.

As soon as the seven young people heard this, they immediately used all means to start reclamation. In the end, they really artificially filled out an island.

That night, the strange fish made the seven of them land on seven small islands. At eight o'clock in the evening, the seven people saw the light of the Big Dipper projecting on the seven small islands, and then stretched out along the first two small islands, and they were shocked to see a small island glowing with white light.

On that small island stood the young man who had been dead for a year. His whole body glowed with golden light, and he looked like an angel with a smile on his face.

The strange fish told them that if they jumped off the island, they would be able to hug the young man again. The seven listened and jumped off the island without hesitation.
