Chapter 301: Life and Death Sign
Gu Piaoran obviously didn't care about our eyes: "You'd better take a break." At our current speed, we will be able to enter the predetermined sea area tonight, and at that time, I am afraid that we will be frightened step by step. β
The man who spoke first spoke: "Since there is enough time now, why don't Mr. Gu take out the map for us to refer to, so that we can be prepared." β
Gu Piaoran stretched out his hand and pointed to his head: "The map can only be here, so I can't take it out." Let's all rest! β
After Gu Piaoran finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the cabin, and Ye Yan and I leaned against the corner of the cabin and talked with internal force: "What are the numbers of those people, can you see it?" β
Ye Shen said: "The two people on the far left, the length of the index finger and the middle finger are almost the same, and the fingers are flexible, they should be people in the empty road, that is, thieves." β
"The three sitting by the window, with yin qi on their faces, black fingers, and a few sticks in their backpacks, should be Luoyang shovels. Eighty percent of those people eat the food. β
Ye Yan said in a solemn voice: "There are also the two people on the side of the door, with big feet and iron hooks on their bodies, they should be corpse fishers who eat water and food." However, they don't seem to be in a group. β
Ye Shen said: "The one in black clothes, with a relatively small hook and a dagger on his body, should be the one who plays with his life in the river." The one who is a little older, with a blade on the hook, can scoop up corpses and kill people, it should be a sea hook. β
Ye Yan paused slightly: "The rest of the people didn't see any roads. β
I was a little relieved when I heard this, at least the people brought by Gu Piaoran were closely related to this business.
As I observed my companions, they were looking around invisibly. Just such a group of people who don't know and trust each other, and even suspect each other, can they really go through the "ghost gate" together?
I didn't know what Gu Piaoran had in mind, so I could only take one step at a time, and simply stopped paying attention to the things around me, and lay down in the cabin and fell asleep, until I was woken up by a bell, and I didn't know that it was night.
The big ship we were on had a different look. The bow of the ship was all equipped with powerful crossbows engraved with a large number of runes, and the crossbow arrows that were thick enough to pick and handle were completely made of peach wood, and the arrows that were half a foot long emitted a glittering blood glow in the nightβbefore the ghosts appeared, there was a faint reaction on the rune arrows, which showed that this sea area itself carried a certain yin qi.
When I looked around at the vast sea, Ye Shen had already whispered, "The ancient head got a machine ship. If this ship were to be auctioned on the Channel, it would be able to top at least two or three luxury yachts. The old head is a bloody one. β
When I was carefully looking at the machine boat under my feet, Gu Piaoran suddenly shouted: "The front is coming, everyone be careful!" β
When I looked in the direction of the bow of the ship, all I saw was a dark sea. Did someone use the phantom array to hide some island, or did the secret burial lie at the bottom of the sea?
I was in the middle of my confusion when I suddenly heard someone shouting, "Ghost ship! It's a ghost ship! β
When I turned my head to look in the direction of the man's finger, I saw a canopy covered in canvas and moss, slowly approaching us.
I've heard of this ghost ship.
Legend has it that once the family is out of business, the villagers will put the remains of the last owner on the boat, close the cabin, roll up the sails, and push the boat into the water to let it drift until it sinks to the bottom.
Some of the better wooden boats can even drift on the rivers for several years before finally entering the sea with the waves.
Once the people who are sailing on the water see the ghost boat approaching, they must quickly burn incense and paper, kowtow far away, and then find a way to avoid the ghost boat and never collide with the other party; I really couldn't avoid it, so I used a long bamboo pole to resist the ghost boat and slowly detoured by myself. In short, one thing, never let the ghost ship collide with you, because the ghost boat will drag people.
Gu Piaoran stood on the bow of the boat and said, "Boss Xu, what now?" β
"The ghost ship is coming for us, let's sink it." The person who spoke was none other than the corpse digger who mixed rice with the rivers.
Boss Xu walked to the bow of the boat with two people and said, "Give us your crossbow." β
"No way!" Gu Piaoran shook his head and said, "The Demon Killing Crossbow can't move now. We have firearms on our side. β
Xu Laodao: "Is there a *?" β
"Give it to him." Gu Piaoran waved his hand, and someone handed Boss Xu a long handle from World War II*.
Boss Xu pulled the * lead and threw it at the ghost ship that was getting closer. After the wooden handle* landed on the bow of the ship unbiasedly, it bounced twice on the board and rolled into the cabin through the hole in the board.
I was just as I was marveling at Boss Xu's eyesight, when a loud bang had risen from the cabin. The already dilapidated wooden ship was split in half by a violent explosion before it was torn apart by the impact of the fire, and the torn corpse rose straight into the air, scattered in all directions and fell into the sea. Boss Xu glanced at the corpse before scolding in a low voice: "Damn, it turned out to be a false alarm." β
I also looked at the scattered bones by the light of the fire. It's not terrible to have a corpse that has sunk into a skeleton in the water, it's the kind of corpse that remains intact. The better the submerged corpse is preserved, the more powerful it becomes. If the corpse in the water has a white complexion and even a ruddy face like a living person, then it is called truly terrifying, which means that it is not far from demonization.
As soon as Boss Xu said that, I heard a loud "clang" from the side of the ship. By the time we turned our heads, a ghost ship was clinging to our side.
Gu Piaoran shouted and asked, "Where did the ghost ship come from?" β
"No, no...... I don't know ......" When the sailor was stammering back, Boss Xu shouted sharply: "Turn the rudder!" Turn the rudder and throw it out for me! β
Although the ghost ship was attached to the side of the ship, it was located slightly closer to the stern, and if the hull was quickly turned, the big ship would most likely use its inertia to push it far away. The sailors on the ship probably knew this, and immediately turned the rudder to make the big ship spin quickly in the water.
As soon as the splash of the big ship set off a half-arc on the sea, there was a loud "click" in the direction of the stern, and the whole big ship stopped at once. Someone shouted at the stern: "The propeller is stuck in something, it's a ghost ship......"
I tilted my head sideways and looked at the stern. Over there, the wreckage of a large number of wooden boats was rising and falling in the foaming water, and some of the wooden blocks were turning up towards the surface in the direction of the propellers. It looks like someone has stuffed a wooden window into the propeller of a big ship, and just stopped the boat.
Ghost ship under the water?
As soon as this thought came to my mind, I saw a large number of splashes tumbling around the side of the ship, and one after another ghost ships pushed the water open, rose upright from the bottom of the sea, and at the same time slapped down on the surface of the sea, and rapidly approached the big ship.
Our big ship is like a magnet that is attracting iron filings, quickly attracting countless ghost ships to quickly approach the side of the ship, and after only a few minutes, it is surrounded by hundreds of ghost ships, like a circular platform connected on the sea.
Boss Xu said sharply: "Quick! Do you have a gun or not, shoot all the ghost ships down, hurry up! β
When the sailors on board drew their guns from the cabin, the whole ship suddenly sank half a foot into the water.
Gu Piaoran stumbled slightly and then roared angrily: "What's the matter? β
Boss Xu's face turned pale and said, "There are dead people dragging the boat below." β
I've heard about dead men dragging boats, too. Some of the dead simply dragged the boat away and demanded sacrifices from the people on board. Others were ready to overturn the ship and disembark in place of the dead ghosts.
Boss Xu's face was also a little pale: "The dead are under the plank, someone has to get off the boat......"
Gu Piaoran gritted his teeth and said, "Then go down." Come on, smash the ghost boat below, and send Boss Xu off the boat. β
The sailors on board immediately gathered on the side of the ship, raised their guns and bombarded the ship continuously. The sailors were all holding *, and although the range was short, it was better than the bullet coverage, and after only a few volleys, they blasted the already dilapidated ghost ship to pieces, and opened a clearing on the side of the ship.
Boss Xu took out a dagger from his body and put it in his mouth, pulled out an iron hook with his right hand, and jumped into the water. The three corpse diggers who were with him also jumped off the boat one after another.
Soon after, the big ship sank suddenly, and the whole hull seemed to be pressed into the water two feet by life. A large amount of water splashed up from all sides of the ship, and the red blood foam also rolled around the side of the ship with the waves.
Boss Xu was killed!
I couldn't help but hold the side of the boat and look down into the sea, and the body of Boss Xu had already floated up from under the water. Boss Xu, who was floating in the water, folded his hands in front of his chest, stretched his legs straight in the water, his face was quiet and slowly rose and fell with the waves, but the red blood stains continued to spread outward along his body......
Sea Hook frowned and said: "There are water ghosts below who have become climates, and the surname Xu is to let the water ghosts dig out their hearts from behind." If he wants to be reincarnated, he has to make up for his heart again. Now no matter who goes into the water, the person who is on the top is the one surnamed Xu first. β
Boss Xu has eaten water and food all his life, and he was beaten alive by a ghost from behind in less than five minutes after entering the water, how fast do the ghosts under the water go?
As the sea hook spoke, the big ship sank a foot into the water in the middle of another violent earthquake. The big ship will sink foot by foot, and sooner or later it will sink to the bottom of the sea, and then we will not be able to even think about going into the water.
Gu Piaoran roared: "Then why don't you hurry up and get into the water?" β
Sea Hook said calmly: "There are only two Sea Hooks in our group now, are you sure you want us to go down?" Without a sea hook, you are not afraid that you will not be able to move an inch on the sea? β
Gu Piaoran's face changed twice before he said, "Then draw lots." Come on, prepare a life and death sign for me. β
