Chapter 406: Blood-streaked Wooden Coffin
It undoubtedly gave them a dismount, and it made him firm in his previous thoughts, he could have taken a risk with Bai Sang, but these five people were innocent outsiders, and they must not be involved.
And these people who have seen such a strange situation should also be easy to convince. So he patted her shoulder soothingly, turned around and entered the cockpit, the other four people were also six gods and no masters, seeing him coming, Wang Haiping turned his head, a little crying without tears: "Brother Xin, what should we do......" Bai Xiu signaled him not to panic: "Try to drive back, maybe you can pass through this sea area." Wang Haiping was young in the end, and when he heard his opinion, he seemed to have a backbone, and he immediately turned the ship around and drove towards Yunning Island with full horsepower, but after half an hour, everyone was silent.
Deng Qingqing looked at the jump, in fact, he was not very bold, and immediately clenched Bai Xiu's arm, choked up: "We, will we not be able to go back......" Bai Xiu smiled comfortingly, and he had no bottom in his heart, but thinking of the blood light before, he faintly had a little guess, he tried to recall the situation at the time, and said to Wang Haiping: "After a while, I say where to go, you will drive." Wang Haiping wished he could take the burden over, and nodded again and again.
The fishing boat turned around, slowly paddled the waves according to Bai Xiu's guidance, and sailed for another half an hour, except for Bai Sang, who was as good as ever, everyone else couldn't help but hold their breath and look at the display disk of the instrument.
Suddenly, Fang Fei exclaimed: "We seem to have bypassed the area, you see, the positioning has changed......" Before she finished speaking, Didi's alarm sounded, and the indicator needle on it shook violently, and then stopped completely, and even the positioning and navigation were dimmed - I never expected that at this critical moment, all the instruments that could help them judge their position actually failed at the same time.
Everyone looked at each other, and gradually even Zhou You and Liang Chen, the two most stable team members, couldn't help but show a little fear, they were like a leaf fluttering in the vast sea, drifting with the tide and having no support.
Bai Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, although they couldn't be sure where they were now, he was sure that they had come out of their previous predicament.
When he encountered the blood light, he noticed that their encirclement was the only one missing, and there seemed to be some mystery hidden.
Wang Haiping and the five of them were in a state of despair, Bai Sang sighed, he looked back at Bai Xiu: "Come out and see, why is it foggy outside." Bai Xiu's heart moved, and he hurriedly pushed the door and walked out.
Sure enough, as Bai Sang said, there was lightning and thunder before, but after a while, there was no movement outside, only the white expanse, even if it was near the fishing boat, it was indistinguishable.
There must be a demon when something goes wrong, and he just wanted to take a look nearby, when his feet suddenly jerked, as if a ship had hit something.
It's also a shame that Wang Haiping was frightened just now, and he didn't drive fast, otherwise he was afraid that there would be other accidents, and the others squeezed out one after another when they heard the movement, and even Wang Haiping estimated that he couldn't drive the boat for a while and ran over to join in the fun.
Only then did they realize that there was such a big fog around them, and the exclamations were endless, but soon their attention was attracted by an extremely strange sound, and there was a continuous tapping sound in front of the fishing boat, like ...... Fang Fei described the voice he heard: "Could it be that there are a lot of wooden boxes side by side in front, and our boat hit the one in front of it, and was pushed by it, just like a bone card, one crashed into the other......" She said this, hooking the curiosity of the others, Zhou You thought for a while and said: "There seems to be a kayak on the boat, why don't we go down and have a look?" Bai Xiu's vigilance was far greater than his curiosity, but there were no other clues at the moment, maybe this thing blocking their ship could bring him some information, of course, he didn't dare to let these young people go anyway, and hurriedly advised: "I'll go down and take a look, don't move." This strange movement was like a tranquilizer, which relaxed their tense nerves a little, and his proposal naturally made several young men and women who were eager to try it very dissatisfied, but in the face of his resolute attitude, they had to nod.
Soon, the kayak was lowered. Seeing that Bai Sang also followed, Bai Xiu whispered to him: "The current situation is too weird, you better stay on the boat, I'm afraid that something or someone wants to lure us both away and be bad for them." ”
"Can you do it alone?" Bai Sang was not at ease,
"What can happen to them on the ship, so that something will climb into the boat and eat them one by one, right?"
"......" Bai Xiu didn't know what to say for a while, and finally said,
"Be careful. He rowed his little kayak towards the water in front of the fishing boat, and soon he was only a few steps away from the thing, and if he reached out, he might be able to touch it.
It's just that Bai Xiu is not so reckless, he parked the small kayak at a safe distance and carefully investigated.
However, it is so strange, obviously he had used the Soul Separation Spell before, but now there is no movement in the spiritual veins - this seems to be a place where spiritual power is also isolated.
This was a big surprise to him, but even if he couldn't use his spiritual power, he had to go over and take a look.
Unknown things can always bring people a sense of fear, although Wang Haiping and they are not to the point of being frightened to the point of hysteria, they are afraid that if this state continues, their spirits will be crushed.
What's more, they seemed to have gone from one predicament to another, whether they left or continued to look for the Dragon King's Palace, they all needed his next reaction.
So he didn't delay too long, first held his breath and listened intently, made sure that there was nothing abnormal, and carefully paddled over.
Soon, the wood pulp in his hand hit something, and Bai Xiu knocked it lightly, and it made a dull sound, which seemed to be made of wood.
He relieved himself a little, withdrew the pulp, put his hand on it and carefully fumbled to the side. As soon as he got started, the delicate touch made him moved, this thing was indeed made of wood, but what he didn't expect was that this was obviously not an ordinary wood, but a very precious wood species - blood-grained wood.
No wonder it had been like that before, he could imagine countless huge blood-streaked wood logs floating on the sea.
But this is so strange, how can there be such a thing in this place? He wondered in his heart, and continued to touch it, and as soon as he touched the upward side, he noticed that there was a gap in the corner of the thing.
It seems that this is not a complete blood-streaked wood, someone has made a hole in it, hollowing it out to make a blood-streaked wood chest.
Could it be that there was something else in it?" a thought flashed through him, and he carefully stuck his finger in it, flipped it over, and lifted the lid of the blood-streaked wooden box in front of him, and almost at the same time a strange smell came out.
Bai Xiu had prepared for a long time and avoided it in time, but vaguely he still smelled a little aroma. Of course, it is said that it is an aroma, but it is not a good smell, a bit like the smell of wine, but it is mixed with a little fishy smell, just like the taste of the cold smell of the vegetables and meat on the plate mixed with the wine smell on the diners after the banquet has dispersed.
It's just that there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this smell, Bai Xiu tried to loosen the sleeves of his shirt, and quickly got used to it.
He was a little more curious about what was inside, could it be that it contained a box full of seafood, because it had been floating on the sea for a long time, and it had fermented into this taste?
And the question also arises, just imagine who will use the blood-patterned wooden box to hold the fish, this is too tyrannical.
He tried to stuff the wood pulp in, and after a while, he poked something, and there was a crisp sound of clicking, he was stunned, and immediately reacted, this is the movement of fish scales peeling, could it be that there is really a big fish inside?
He became more and more suspicious in his heart, and hurriedly slowly moved the wood pulp horizontally, trying to trace its shape, that is, in a few seconds, his movements suddenly stopped...... No, there seems to be a person lying inside, inside.
He was stunned, and suddenly realized what was in front of him
What the hell is the "blood-streaked wooden box" - this ship coffin. That is to say, it was a cemetery at sea, although he did not know who their owners were, and their ship was parked at the edge of this cemetery, and it was not difficult to imagine how spectacular and eerie it would be to see rows and rows of coffins stretching forward side by side.
He was pondering when the shouts of Deng Qingqing and a few people came from the fishing boat, probably he had been dull for too long, which made them feel a little uneasy.
Bai Xiu rubbed the strange coffin in front of him, and his mind suddenly moved, maybe he should drag it up to study it, it and its owner would give him some answers.
Thinking so, he bowed and whispered, "Offended." He put the lid back on, tied the coffin in its entirety with a piece of hemp rope left on the kayak, hung it behind the kayak, and then carefully rowed towards the fishing boat.
Seeing that he had returned intact, Bai Sang and the others breathed a sigh of relief, but when they saw the strange wooden box, their hearts rose again.
Fang Fei was the most bold, clapped his hands and smiled: "Could it be that they are blocking our way?" Pull it up and take a look, maybe there is any treasure inside!" Several people pulled the box onto the boat, and then the lights on the deck, Bai Xiu saw its appearance clearly.
This blood-streaked coffin is not long, never more than one and a half meters, and its height and width are the same as ordinary coffins, and they don't know how long it has been floating on the sea, and many places on it have begun to decay, and it is thanks to this that they can barely carry it up.
Bai Sang pulled him up, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It's so lucky, this is a first-class blood-patterned wood, if the ones in the back are the same as this one, even if it is rotten, we will also send ......" Before he finished speaking, an exclamation exploded behind them, Bai Xiu was startled, thinking that they had been attacked by something, and turned his head to see that Fang Fei was sitting on the ground and vomiting desperately, and the others were no better, and they all held on to the side of the boat and retched.
Zhou You is the most stable of them, and his face became extremely ugly at this time, and in the end, Deng Qingqing relieved herself first, she looked at the blood-patterned wooden coffin with disgust: "Xin Fang, why did you bring this thing up, it's so disgust......ing" Bai Xiu's heart moved, although these people are not very bold, but they will not react so much to a rotting corpse, could it be that there are other things in it?
