Chapter 163: Vacation
Dongsheng, who was originally frowning slightly, and was looking far away, suddenly came back to his senses, and quickly grabbed a big fish that was trying to sneak, and then called Zheng Yunyao and Andre on the side, and the three of them quickly transferred the fish on the deck and the fat meow spirit who was about to turn into a meow kite to the cabin together.

"Winter cub, I don't think this storm is normal, it's not like an ordinary change." Zheng Yunyao looked at the monstrous waves outside through the glass, and faintly smelled an unusual smell.
"This storm is really not normal." After Dong Sheng finished speaking, he drew more than a dozen spells in the void with his bare hands, and the runes were completed, and the spells were whispered, and these invisible pitch-black charms rotated several times in the void and flew to all corners of the yacht.
When the last spell fell, the yacht seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force, instantly isolating the storm outside, and the emergency lights in the yacht flashed a few times before finally lighting up.
The snow-white light shone through the glass, and the storm actually stopped, and the fog began on the surface of the sea, and a large ship could be faintly seen in the thick fog.
The ship was getting closer, and in the thick fog, there seemed to be a singing voice.
Did they have a good fortune to meet a cruise ship?
The yacht doesn't know what's going on, it can't move at all, and the distress signal can't be sent, even if the people on the shore find out that something is wrong and send someone to rescue them, it is not easy to search for a small yacht in the vast sea. Now the good luck of encountering a passing ship is undoubtedly the best chance to call for help.
However, Jack and the three of them didn't rejoice for long before they realized something was wrong.
Through the telescope, they could see the outline of the ship, which looked new, but old enough to be used in a museum in terms of style and material.
The ship is getting closer and closer, gradually revealing its true face under the thick fog.
It was an incomparably huge wooden sailing ship, and behind the huge sail was a three-story wooden building, and an ancient flag fluttered on the top of the wooden building, and the flag with black borders on a yellow background seemed to be embroidered with a huge Z national character.
Jack: They could recognize it as the Z character, but they couldn't recognize what it was. Andre is now staying in country Z with Zheng Yunyao, not only is the country Z dialect getting more and more slippery, in order to fully comprehend Meow Daxian's order, he also secretly learned the words of country Z, and he recognized the words of the flag at a glance-
Bright.
The words are recognized, but the deeper meaning, Andrei can't understand.
Ah Huang shook his soaked fur and shrunk at Dongsheng's feet, I don't know if he was frozen or frightened, and his voice was a little trembling: "Winter, winter cub, that, that thing, okay, it seems to be a ghost boat meow." It's coming, it's coming, it's coming! The fat meow, who was still whirring after shrinking, jumped three feet high in fright, stomped onto Dongsheng's shoulder, and the fat claws grabbed Dongsheng's clothes, looking like he was ready to run for his life at any time.
The big ship approached slowly, and finally slowly stopped next to the yacht.
There were a lot of soldiers of country Z standing on the big ship, and there was a person who looked like a leader, waving a flag and waving a flag at Dongsheng and them.
Jack and the others looked at each other, completely unable to understand their intentions, and the people on the big ship saw that they didn't react for a long time, so they found a soldier with a loud voice to come out and shout, and the man shouted several times, and Dong Sheng could discern what he shouted from his strange accent-
"Who are you waiting for? Hurry up! ”
Zheng Yunyao, like Andre and the others, was completely confused, "Winter cub, can you understand what they say?" ”
Dong Sheng nodded and frowned: "He asked us who we were, his accent is very strange, if I guess correctly, they should be from the Ming Dynasty." "Dong Sheng is a top student in the Department of Archaeology, and he can see a lot of clues from the big ship alone, combined with the clothing and accent of those people, he is more than ninety percent sure that this is a big ship in the Ming Dynasty, and the origin of this ship is very likely to be related to the famous Western events in history.
"During the Ming Dynasty? Did we just encounter a space-time tunnel? Zheng Yunyao's brain was opened. I think back then, when he was still in elementary school, he also saw a lot of unsolved mysteries and aspired to be a scientist. Unfortunately, this dream was slowly buried by reality, but he still occasionally paid attention to some scientific magazines, read some high-end and cutting-edge academic reports, and invested accordingly when he saw that he was interested in experimental projects.
Dongsheng: "...... You think too much, it's a ghost ship. ”
Jack and the others couldn't understand the conversation between the two, but Andre did, seeing the dense crowd of taxis (ghosts) and soldiers (souls) on the ship, the blood on his face quickly faded, and his feet trembled uncontrollably.
"No, Winter Cub, the Ming Dynasty should have been hundreds of years by now, why do those ghosts look like they just died?" Ah Huang was puzzled.
Hundreds of years are enough time for these ghosts to disappear at the end of time, but they look so solid that even ordinary people who have not opened their eyes can see them, and no matter how they look, they are strange. What's even more strange is that there is almost no yin qi on the bodies of these ghosts, so that Zheng Yunyao's first reaction is to encounter a space-time tunnel, not a boatload of ghosts.
The sudden storm they experienced just now was most likely caused by this ghost ship, and although Dongsheng protected the yacht with a charm, he failed to make the yacht run normally. Although it cannot be ruled out that the yacht itself is out of order, it is more likely that the ghost ship is behind the ghost.
"I'll go take a look." Dongsheng said expressionlessly.
"I'm with you." Zheng Yunyao couldn't help but clench Dongsheng's hand.
Ah Huang said weakly: "Meow, Master Meow stayed to protect Andre and them!" ”
"Okay." This ghost ship is very strange, and it is difficult to break the auspicious and vicious going, and Ah Huang's stay can be regarded as leaving a way back. In the vast sea, if the other party really makes a move, Ah Huang will not be able to escape, so he can only stay on the yacht and advance and retreat with Andre and others.
By the time Ah Huang figured out this stubble and began to regret it, Dongsheng and Zheng Yunyao had already climbed onto the big boat through the soft ladder that the other party had dropped.
The soldiers on the big ship were very disciplined, and although their faces showed obvious curiosity, they did not exchange words in private, and only the voice of the leader on the big ship remained: "Who are you waiting for?" Where did it come from? ”
"Z people." Dongsheng replied with an expressionless face.
The leader thought about it, his face was puzzled, he didn't seem to understand which country Z was that Dong Sheng said, he said in a deep voice: "I am Xu Rong, the general of the Ming Dynasty, and since you know my Ming language, you should know the location of the Ming Dynasty, right?" ”
As soon as Xu Rong's voice fell, all the soldiers around him pricked up their ears and looked at Dongsheng and the others.
Dong Sheng didn't answer and asked: "Did you go to the West with Zheng He?" ”
The young man in front of him, who was dressed in strange clothes, hairstyle, and accent, called Lord Zheng by his name, which made Xu Rong a little disliked, but now he had a request for help, and it was not easy to attack, so he had to nod and say: "That's right, we did go to sea with Lord Zheng, however, we unfortunately encountered a storm, and then encountered a dense fog, lost in the sea, and drifted for more than a month. I also hope that you will show us the way, and when we return to Daming, we will be grateful. ”
Military attache Xu Rong was born and was not good at beating around the bush, so he simply went straight to the point and explained his difficulties.
He thought that Dong Sheng would definitely agree, but unexpectedly, Dong Sheng said coldly: "It has been hundreds of years since the fall of the Ming Dynasty, I can take you back to your homeland, but it is absolutely impossible to bring you back to the Ming Dynasty." ”
"What did you say?!" Not only did Xu Rong's eyes widen, but the soldiers around him also looked at Dong Sheng in disbelief, as if they had heard the most ridiculous lie in the world, and as if Dong Sheng said one more word, they would attack in groups and chop this person who spouted wild words into pulp.
The murderous aura rose to the sky, Zheng Yunyao couldn't help but be secretly vigilant, but Dongsheng was unmoved, walked up to Xu Rong, and continued to say coldly: "I think I have made it very clear, not only has the Ming Dynasty been destroyed for hundreds of years, but you died earlier than the Ming Dynasty. ”
As he spoke, Dong Sheng raised his hand, Xu Rong didn't have time to react, only to see his white jade-like fingers lightly tap on Xu Rong's eyebrows, and wisps of yin and evil qi quickly poured into Xu Rong's body, Xu Rong's body seemed to shrink, quickly became shriveled and wrinkled, and a large number of corpse spots were exposed on his face and body. After a few moments, corpse spots were all over the body, emitting a disgusting corpse stench and flies and insects. In the blink of an eye, the tall and straight Xu Rong turned into a white bone.
In the eye sockets of the black hole, there were two bean-sized fires, and the flames flickered non-stop, and the sea breeze with a fishy smell struck, as if it could blow out the fire at any time.
Nearly a thousand soldiers on the ship turned into green points of light, rushing into the skeleton's eyes.
The soldiers vanished, and the new, beautiful ship was transformed into a crumbling wooden ship.
In the distance, Andre and Jack and others on the yacht saw this scene, and their legs were weak with fright, [Ghost, ghost ship, it's a ghost ship!] 】
There is no shortage of legends and decryptions about ghost ships on the sea, and there is no shortage of people who claim to have seen ghost ships and their lies finally exposed. In the past, sailors believed in the existence of the Kraken, but now, few people believe that there are Krakens in the world. The same goes for ghost ships, as technology becomes more and more advanced, more and more anomalous phenomena can be explained by science, and there are naturally fewer and fewer people who believe in the existence of ghost ships.
Jack and the three of them have been adrift at sea all year round, and it is not that they have not encountered 'unscientific' phenomena, but this kind of 'living' ghost ship is definitely the first time in their lives to see it.
The three of them tacitly pinched their goosebumps-riddled arms-
I'm going, it hurts, it's not a dream, they really saw the ghost ship! It's not the kind of mysterious thing, but the kind of ghost ship that is full of ghosts.
He, do they still have a way to live today?
Seeing that there was only one ghost left in the boat, Andre's confidence soared, and he looked unafraid, comforting them: [What are you afraid of, the more powerful ghost Dongsheng master has cleaned up, don't worry, we will definitely be fine. The person whose legs were shaking just now was not the same as him.
It turns out that Master Dongsheng is so powerful!
Jack and the others were in awe, the goosebumps on their bodies subsided a lot, and Ah Huang looked at the ghost ship from afar, but he was not as optimistic as them.
On the ghost boat, Dong Sheng put down his hand and said coldly: "You, do you remember it now?" ”
The skeleton re-transformed into Xu Rong's appearance, with a look of exhaustion and sadness that could not be concealed, and nodded blankly.
He had remembered everything, how they had been shipwrecked, how they had been caught in thick fog, how they had lost their way, and how they had finally died tragically in the middle of the sea.
He still remembers that when he left home, his wife was already pregnant, and he could barely hold back her tears and see him off.
He still remembers that when he left home, his eldest son had tears in his eyes and was reluctant to give up.
He still remembers how his elderly parents were worried but kept encouraging him when he left home.
He still remembers that when he left home, he secretly vowed in his heart that he would give his family a prosperous and happy life in the future.
He's homesick. He wanted to go home, but he couldn't find his way home.
