127 - Keys and keys

Those eyes were white and hollow, and they shouldn't feel like that, but Pease saw it! I saw those eyeballs keep moving! Staring at him.

Pease hurriedly pushed one hand to the side of the ship, trying to get himself back into the boat.

However, at the moment when Pease's hand stretched out, the arm of the fish-man on the raft that had been sunk in the water suddenly emerged from the water and grabbed Pease's arm!

Pease's body froze! The touch from the arm was wet and sticky, and the bones and splinters made the hand feel even more rubbing and withered.

Pease's lips opened slightly, and he let out a faint cry of "Ahhh~". But as if the voice was blocked by something, there was no way to get out of the corners of Pease's mouth.

After the fish-man grabbed Pease, the head that had been lying on the raft turned to Pease, and all the bits and pieces of the skull that had nothing left were shaken off. But only the two cloudy eyes and jaws turned towards Pease, and the prostrate posture of the body caused the fish-man's neck bone to tear out from his body.

Its jaws opened and closed back and forth, as if to say something to Pease...... And Pease, too, heard.

"Get out of here...... They...... It's coming...... Take my keys...... Come on! The voice was like a warning, like a request. Pease saw a silver key hanging from the fishman's neck bone, "Take it, quick!" Pease swallowed, stretched out his other hand tremblingly, grabbed the silver key, and pulled it off, unexpectedly, without any effort, the silver key was caught in Pease's hand.

"You're back~ Child" The voice was cold, without a trace of emotion, and then the voice changed, becoming sharp, mixed, and tyrannical. "You shouldn't live alone! I'm going to keep you here forever! Then, with a slam of his arm, he was about to drag Pease into the water!

"Pease!" At this time, Weir's voice came, and a pair of hands quickly grabbed Pease's waist, and dragged Pease, who had already touched the water and was about to fold, back into the boat.

"You'll be back......" Pease found that his face was facing the water, and underwater, facing him, was a shadow that seemed to float away and vanished.

"Stay safe, little one! How? Do you want to practice swimming at this time? Hierro put Pease in the boat, "So positive and said you don't want to learn to sail with me?" ”

Boreth saw that Pease was not in a normal state, and Pease clutched his arms tightly, his eyes were distracted, obviously frightened. "What just happened?" Bo Ress put his arm around Pease's shoulders, "Don't hold it in your heart, what's wrong just now?" Pease? ”

Pease shuddered violently, came back to his senses, and found himself on the boat, and the three of them were looking at him opposite, shouting, "Help! Help me! Save ......".

"Help?"

Will, standing aside, heard this, and quickly looked at the place where Pease had just gone into the water, but found nothing. "Nothing?"

“…… That fish-man, that fish-man can talk! Pease shouted anxiously.

"Fish-people?" All three of them were stunned.

"What fish-man? Pease? Didn't we just come from that raft? There are only a few rags and planks on it, how can there be a fishman? "Wiel paddled to hold the boat still.

When Pease heard this, he also looked to the side in surprise, and sure enough, there was nothing, but he was even more afraid.

"Pease, what did it say?" Boreth didn't have the same as Weir, she gently distracted Pease, she thought that maybe it was the weird atmosphere around her that made Pease feel uneasy, so she hallucinated. Now that Pease seems to have just experienced a fright, it is better to let him say what he has 'seen', so that he can release his psychological pressure. "Don't be afraid of Pease, what did you just hear, what did you see?" Boreth asked softly.

"It's, it says let's get out of here...... They're coming. ”

"Them?" Hierro sat on the sidelines, his hands clasped together.

Pease shook his head, "I don't know...... I don't know......" hands clenched with nervousness, but suddenly Pease realized something. "There's a terrible voice saying you're back...... I'm so scared. ”

"That's right! And this. Pease stretched out his hand, opened it, and vigorously reached out to the eyes of the three of them, "Key! Key! It made me take this key away......"

"What?!" Everyone was stunned by Pease's words and looked into the palm of his hand.

Pease ...... You don't have anything in your hands? Ver looked at it, but found that there was nothing in Pease's palm, except for what might have been freshly touched by seawater.

"I ...... I took the key...... I got it, the ...... that was still there" Pease withdrew his hand and raised both hands in front of him, there was really nothing.

"This ...... This, how is this possible? ”

Wille said worriedly, "Could it be that you are hallucinating?" Or did you meet a ghost?! ”。

Borreth glanced at Vere and motioned for him to shut up, "The key...... Pease, where did you say you got the key? What does it look like? ”

"Yes, yes, yes. I...... I did...... It's the fish-man neck...... on the neck. Pease didn't know who to look at, his face turned a little pale with the recollection, "It's a white ...... Silver ...... It's scary! ......" Pease couldn't take it anymore and threw himself into Boreth's arms.

"Fish-man ......" Boreth put his arm around Pease and lips to Hierrobi, his eyes inquiring.

Hierro hurriedly said, "Little one, what you just saw was a fish-man with long blue fins?" But Pease only shook his shoulders and replied with an "um" not wanting to think about it any more.

Hierro nodded slightly, his eyes even more gloomy on his bearded face. "Fish-Man...... Argent...... That's it............ They disappeared in this mist five years ago to the patriarch. Hierro looked at Pis in Boreth's arms, "I think that key should be in this water." Hierro glanced at the sea around him, "Still, I'm very concerned about what happened to Pease...... Why didn't all three of us realize it? ”

Will did not participate in the conversation between the two, he immediately looked at the surrounding sea, looked at the sea and suddenly thought of one thing, that is, the pigman once said that Pease was washed on the shore about five years ago, that is? …… Wiel looked at the shipwrecks to the side, at Pease, at the wrecks, and at the planks floating on the water......

"You're back...... "Will Vere silently repeat what Pease had just said, and a bold idea appeared in Wiel's mind, and a terrifying thought appeared in Wiel's mind!

Perhaps Pease fell off this ship during that storm five years ago and was picked up by the pigmen...... The whole ship's people...... All sunk into the sea in front of you?

In other words, there are bones of an entire fleet of ships in the entire underwater reef and wrecked ships?!

At the thought of this, the cold sweat on Weiel's head flowed.

"I said, let's go back, let's go back." Weier wiped the sweat from his head, "Here, there may be ghosts......

"What, scared?" There was a slight mockery in Hierro's eyes.

Vere frowned and said, "What does this have to do with being afraid?" Now is not the time to be a hero, we need to get out of here...... Even regardless of what Pease said, I had a sense of unease. ”

"Okay boy, if there is a ghost, you can hold it for me!" Hierro looked back and said fiercely. "If you're really thinking about Pease, then don't even think about going back, we only have two options right now." Hierro stretched out two fingers, "One, clear the reef and the ships in front of you." Two, we'll row a boat around here, and let Ver get another boat on the other side where he can sail. ”

"So we're going to have to cross here?" Wille said.

"No, you're wrong...... We have to find the key, and I have a hunch that it must be in the sea! Hierro shook his finger.

"Well, let's turn back and get to the boat, leaving one to accompany Pease." The rest of the people will come back and explore here. ”

"Okay, if I can, I'll stay with Pease." Vere volunteered.

Hierro frowned, no objection.

So Wiel rowed the boat in the direction it had come, and felt that it was on the opposite side of his boat.

"That's it, this should be the ship we were on when we came." Hierro nodded at Will, and rowed out into the fog ahead, the shipyard behind him disappearing from view.

"Huh? This is not quite the right current...... It's not the same as when I came. Hierro frowned and looked into the water beside the boat.

"Of course...... Not quite right...... We didn't even get back to the ship......" The corners of Wiel's mouth twitched, and a voice came from the front. Hierro looked up, and even the old captain couldn't help but be surprised.

"We're back again?"

The wooden boat in front of him was bloated and creaking.
