Chapter 17: Seeing the Light of Day Again
"Xiaoyuan!"
"Leave me alone! your youkai!"
Covering the bleeding wound on my shoulder, I said to the old man: "It's time to have an end." โ
With that, I rushed to the iron box with the harpoon open.
"No!" the captain shouted behind me.
In the iron box, his daughter waved her arms and crawled out as hard as she could.
How could such a thin pair of arms drag her huge torso and head?
The harpoon poked her in the eye, and she turned her head, dodging it, and with great force she took the harpoon directly away from my hand, but also revealed the other eye.
There was only one thought in my mind: kill!
Kill, kill, kill!
Kill everything here, even the sailors who have already run out!
I knew it wasn't right, but I couldn't control my emotions.
When she showed her other eye, I didn't have a harpoon in my hand, so I didn't hesitate to punch that eye.
It was a feeling I will never forget.
I remember filling balloons with water when I was a kid and being able to play all the way after school.
The feeling was like popping a hard flood-filled balloon, and with a "bang" sound, eyeballs bigger than my fists exploded, and viscous liquid burst all over me.
At the same time, the boss's fist slammed into my back, and my spine creaked like a piece of wood was about to break, but I didn't feel the slightest pain.
Not enough!
Ignoring the Captain's attack, I pulled the harpoon off the little monster's head and poked her head as hard as I could.
"No!"
The captain of the boat was also red-eyed, and grabbed the harpoon in a frenzy, and two fingernails dug into the back of my harpoon-holding hand, leaving two deep blood marks.
Smack-
He kicked me in the stomach and I tumbled to the ground, feeling my intestines twist together.
I didn't have time to catch my breath, so I rolled on the ground and narrowly avoided the fork that was picking at the back of my neck.
"Girl, don't be afraid, Dad is here!"
The ship's eyes were about to burst into flames when they saw me, and the little monster, which had just shrunk into a ball in the iron box, was now looking at me with the only eye that was left, half-open, revealing several layers of jagged fangs.
"Daddy will take him over and give you a snack. "The harpoon's spikes are closing in on me.
"Damn, can you take her to fix her teeth first, it's disgusting!"
"You! How dare you...... I'll kill you!"
Another sharp attack, but the harpoon was crooked. He was so angry that his hands were shaking involuntarily.
I took advantage of the momentum and pushed him behind his back, and he was unsteady on his feet, and he fell to the ground at once, and the harpoon in his hand fell 3 meters away.
This is a chance! I'm 50 percent sure I'll get that harpoon back.
Of course, the captain of the boat guessed my intentions, and threw himself forward with his hands and feet, desperately pressing the harpoon under him.
Holding the harpoon for 2 seconds, he finally realized: I didn't grab him at all.
I ran back, ran to Blackie's side, and picked up the harpoon that the Captain had left hereโyes, the one that had just stabbed me.
At this moment, I was about 3 steps closer to the big iron box than he was.
I had turned around and rushed towards the big iron box.
He realized something, and ran back desperately, using his hands and feet again. He shook his head at me, his eyes full of pleading.
He was but a poor father, and if I had become his daughter, would my father have been as mad as he was?
I believe that it is the same.
Can I understand him? I should understand him, his poor father.
But at that moment, I couldn't care about anything, and there was only one thought in my heart: kill!
The spearpoon's point, which was more than a dozen centimeters long, had all sunk into her mouth.
I felt the muscles contract violently in my hand holding the harpoon, the squeezing sensation of the joints of the bones being picked open, and the fragile bone marrow and nerves "pop" and break all at once.
"Dead. Mechanically spit out two words.
Her misshapen body began to convulse and spasm, her thin limbs shaking like plastic bags hanging from a tree in the wind.
"No! no...... Girl, Daddy is here, Daddy is here to save you, you won't die......!
The boss of the boat seemed to have suddenly become an old man, his back had become a shrimp, and the muscles on his body had suddenly collapsed into a puddle of mud.
Tears soaked his face and clothes, and were still dripping down.
I never knew that one person could have so many tears.
Should I sympathize with him? Anyone who has a father should sympathize with him.
But I can't sympathize.
I picked up the harpoon that he had dropped again, and I just wanted to kill him.
He had no power to resist.
As his daughter ceased to spasm and lay motionless in the box, he became a dead man, his eyes glazed over, his body shaky, and he could faint at any moment.
It's not that hard to kill such a person, and I have a sharp harpoon in my hand.
But I couldn't kill him.
"Enough is enough! He is dead, and we must not ......."
Blackie dealt with the monster and stood between me and the boat boss.
"Get out!"
I yelled and stabbed the little black heart nest with a fork.
Smack-
A soft palm slashed at the back of my neck, and my mind suddenly short-circuited, and I fell to the ground in a daze.
When I woke up again, I was back on the boat.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Cao Cao.
He looked at me with delight, and I frowned at him - my head was about to crack, and it was a fucking pain!
"Xiaoyuan, you're awake!" Cao Cao slapped the side of my bed excitedly, almost not shaking me.
After taking a sip of water, I gradually regained my ability to think and asked, "Brother Cao...... You're not...... Are you missing?"
"Hey, don't mention it!" Cao Cao stomped his feet in annoyance, "As soon as I got on the boat, the old man was plotted by the man and woman!"
"Plotting?"
"That's what they used to plot against me. Cao Cao took out a syringe, "What kind of secret weapon is this?
After going to the island, Xiao Hei was also plotted by Han Meimei and injected anesthetics.
Now that I think about it, that Han Meimei should be a nurse or a doctor, but why would she harm us?
"Is Lei Li there?" I asked.
Han Meimei is already dead, and the only one who can answer this question is Li Lei, I wanted to get up and go out of the cabin to take a look, but there was a tearing pain in my shoulder.
"Oh, I'll go-"
"Don't move, don't move, you're injured, and it's hard to stop the bleeding. โ
When I shouted, I didn't know who shouted outside the hatch: "Xiaoyuan is awake!"
Crackling footsteps sounded, and the first one to rush in was Xu Xiaoman.
Before he could speak, tears flowed down his face.
"I thought you were going to die!"
"I'm not going to die, it's so boring to go to the ghost gate by myself, I don't even have someone who can help me take pictures. โ
