Volume 4 The Stormy Waves Chapter 307 The Ghost Ship
Several people all looked at Chang Lao Wu, and because of Chang Lao Wu's fear, the others also felt slightly hairy.
Only Tie Niu opened his mouth and asked, "What then?"
And then ...... We didn't know that the boat that suddenly disappeared would be a ghost ship, and we thought it would ...... So we sped to that location and saw another ...... On the big ship that was running side by side with the ghost ship, there was not even a single corpse or a living person, but there were a few holes in the hull, and there were also a few pools of thick blood on the deck, which felt like ...... It was as if something had been slaughtered alive! That's when I realized that the tall, but very dilapidated ship I had seen in the telescope was actually the legendary ghost ship!"
After Chang Lao Wu finished speaking, his face became more and more pale.
Several people looked at each other, and Ding Sicheng asked: "Brother Lan mentioned sea ghosts before, could it be that the appearance of sea ghosts is also related to the ghost ship?"
"I can't say this!" The old captain took over, "Sea ghosts are sea ghosts, and ghost ghost ships are ghost ships! Many people have seen sea ghosts, and it is said that sea ghosts have green faces and fangs, and their two claws are particularly powerful, and they can disembowel people with a single grab! Its appearance is similar to that of the sea yaksha in Chinese myths and legends, so many Chinese fishermen call the sea ghosts sea yakshas. And the ghost ship...... That's something more terrifying than a sea ghost! When you meet a sea ghost, you don't have to die all the people on the boat, but if you encounter a ghost ship, there will basically be no one left alive! So far, no one knows what exactly is on the ghost ship. Some people even say that sea ghosts are probably just some kind of fierce creatures in the sea, and ghost ghost ships, that is definitely not something that should exist in the world!"
It's not what you should have on earth, it's what you should have in hell.
Several people listened to the old captain's narration and couldn't help but shudder one by one.
"I think...... This fog is so strange, it doesn't look like it should be in the world!" Iron Bull suddenly said.
No one contradicted him, in fact everyone had the same thoughts as him.
"Master Chen, what do you think we should do?" Chang Lao Wu couldn't help but ask Ding Sicheng.
He was supposed to be the master's family, but he had witnessed Ding Sicheng and Poplar Iron Bull fighting the sharp-headed ghost fish before, so he naturally pinned his hope of survival on Ding Sicheng and the other three.
Ding Sicheng's mind turned, and he asked the old captain, "I wonder if there is any arson on our ship?"
The old captain was slightly stunned, and then asked rhetorically, "Does Master Chen want to do it?"
"I think all evil things are afraid of fire, if we have arson, if there is really a ghost ship in this white fog later, then let's try it with fire!" Ding Sicheng replied.
The old captain probably didn't expect Ding Sicheng to be so bold, and couldn't help blurting out: "Ghost ghost ship...... That's something like ghosts and gods, and you're ...... Want to attack it with fire?"
"I don't want to attack it, but if something strange comes out and attacks us, then we can't stand idly by, right?" Ding Sicheng said.
"But...... If you really attack the ghost ship, maybe there will be retribution!" said the old captain.
"If we lose our lives, I'm afraid of what retribution he has!" Chang Lao Wu quickly turned his head to talk to Ding Sicheng, "There are a few more barrels of diesel fuel on this ship, which is extra fuel for the ship! There is also a flare gun, plus a box of signal flares, and the rest is gone!"
"Then leave enough fuel and move the excess diesel to a convenient place, preferably to make a few torches!" Mr. Ding said.
Chang Lao Wu nodded, and was about to tell the old captain to hurry up, when he suddenly heard a strange voice coming into his ears.
The sound was vague, but it was extremely hoarse and unpleasant, and it felt like two knives scraping against each other, and it made people get goosebumps all over their bodies when they heard it.
"What is this sound? is it a sea ghost, or a ghost ship?" the surnamed Lan exclaimed again.
Everyone, including Chang Lao Wu and the old captain, couldn't answer in shock, Ding Sicheng hurriedly urged: "Don't hesitate, everyone, hurry up and move diesel to make torches!"
A few crew members were still a little hesitant before, but at this time they couldn't care about anything, so under the leadership of the old captain, they went into the cabin to find excess diesel.
Jiang Peng saw that Baiyang Tieniu was calm, but his apprentice was full of fear, and he was a little annoyed that the apprentice was not angry, so he could only ask the surnamed Lan to follow the boatmen to carry diesel.
The surnamed Lan didn't want to stay on the deck anymore, but after listening to Jiang Pengyi, he hurriedly chased a few boatmen to the cabin.
The remaining five were still standing on the deck with their backs, staring at the thick white fog around the ship.
Listening to the hoarse but frustrating voice, it gradually became clearer, and several people became more and more nervous.
Until Chang Lao Wu first exclaimed: "It's a ghost ship! It's a ghost ship! Look, look at it!"
A few people immediately turned their heads, and saw that on the side that Chang Lao Wu was facing, about ten meters away from the boat they were on, there was a large ship emerging from the thick white mist.
But the fog obscured the vision, and it felt as if the ship was slowly approaching from the thick fog, and more like it was slowly rising from the sea.
The ship was really very worn, not only the sails were fluttering, the mast was broken, and even on the hull, there were several obvious holes.
"It's a ghost ship, it must be a ghost ship!" Chang Lao Wu muttered to himself in a trembling voice.
Everyone else stared at the broken ship, including the palms of the poplar iron bull, and they couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat.
Although the ship was broken, it was very large, and its height was at least one meter higher than that of the boat on which Poplar and the others were riding.
However, at the height of a few people standing, they can still see through the fog and vaguely see the situation on the deck of the broken ship.
There was no human figure on deck, let alone any living thing. Against the backdrop of the thick fog, it looks a little cold and gloomy.
"Mr. Chen, what should we do now?" Chang Lao Wu asked again with a trembling voice.
"Wait and see!" Ding Sicheng said, keeping his eyes fixed on the broken deck of the ship over there.
"That voice hasn't sounded for a long time, isn't that sound coming from this ship?" said Iron Bull.
Indeed, the extremely terrible sound before has not been heard since the wrecked ship appeared.
It's just that the attention of several people is all attracted by this broken ship, and if it weren't for the sudden mention of Iron Bull, several people would not have realized this.
"Yes, that voice is indeed ......"
Poplar opened his mouth to answer, but he didn't want to finish his sentence, and another "squeak" sound suddenly came from the boat over there.
The sound was not as vague as before, but "squeak" seemed to ring in the ears, which startled several people.
"If you want me to say, let's just jump over and see what is so strange on that ship, it makes people feel anxious to look at it from afar!" said Tie Niu.
Bai Yang didn't speak, just turned his head to look at Ding Sicheng.
Ding Sicheng shook his head and said, "Wait first, wait until the captain and they have made the torches, if there is still no one on this ship, then let's simply set fire to the ship and see what can be weird!"
Several people all felt that Ding Sicheng's idea was good, so they all remained silent and just continued to stare at the broken ship.
Listening to the "squeak" sound getting louder and louder, it felt like the broken ship was disintegrating.
However, the broken ship did not disintegrate, but the ship under their feet began to sway.
"What's going on, why is this ship shaking?" Jiang Peng whispered.
No one could answer Jiang Peng, and everyone's eyes naturally fell on Ding Sicheng's face.
Ding Sicheng looked around, suddenly walked quickly to the side of the boat, looked at the bottom of the ship, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Bai Yang and the others followed closely to the side of the ship, and also looked down, and were shocked to see clumps of strange things like seaweed popping out of the black sea water at the bottom of the boat.
The strange thing sped along the hull, and in a matter of moments, it crawled over the hull and onto the side of the ship, spreading rapidly towards the deck.
