Chapter 64: The Swamp Coffin
Lao Qin took out the telescope from his backpack, this is the equipment he took the opportunity to purchase in the Imperial City of Zeguo, of course, it is something that can be bought everywhere in the street store, it is not very professional equipment, but it can be used.
"This swampy sea is so big, and I haven't seen a hard ground where I can put my feet on it for a day. Lao Qin took a bite of the compressed biscuit and said.
"It will take at least six days to get out of the North Zehai. Moonlight answered.
Lao Qin opened the tablet and studied the satellite map, and the tablet's program could draw the route he had walked on the map. At a glance, it was clear at a glance, Lao Qin raised his head and said to Yueguang Cheng, "We are taking a detour. ”
Lao Qin walked to Yueguangcheng's side, held the tablet and said, "We have made several big circles, especially here, it only takes ten minutes to pass in a straight line, but it has taken several hours to make a turn." ”
"......" Yueguang Cheng didn't speak, his eyes staring ahead, as if he hadn't heard Lao Qin's words.
"That's the end of today, and we're on our way tomorrow. Moonlight stopped the motorboat, stepped off the console, and sat cross-legged in a corner.
Lao Qin glanced at the mountaineering table, the sky was a little dark, but the time was still early, and it could be said that dinner time had not yet arrived. Lao Qin looked at Ji Xiu, Ji Xiu was meditating, and Yueguang Cheng was also meditating, what were these two guys doing. Then looking in the direction of Cai Wen, she was also meditating and entering meditation, and these three people could be said to have the highest cultivation on the motorboat.
Lao Qin felt a little bad, as if there was some bad omen, was there any danger? I don't know what the situation is, I just did it, and there would be no mistake anyway. So, Lao Qin also sat down on the spot, learning from the appearance of Ji Xiu and the others, with a serious and serious face like an old monk.
Igu shrunk his neck, and he was the only one left in the whole rice steamboat who didn't meditate, and after blinking his eyes wide, he aimed the camera lens at Ji Xiu's face, then moved to Lao Qin's face, then moved to Cai Wen's face, and finally pointed the camera at Yue Guangcheng.
Yueguangcheng opened his eyes suddenly, staring directly at the camera, with anger and intimidation in his eyes, Yueguangcheng quickly made a move, blocked the camera with his hand, and said lightly: "Don't shoot me again in the future, otherwise I will crush the camera." ”
Igu was so frightened that he took two steps back, and the camera emitted white smoke and changed back to the original form of the ghost fox, who was also frightened by Moonlight Makoto and hid behind Igu's neck, and from time to time stretched out the fox's head to look at Moonlight Makoto who was meditating with his eyes closed.
For a while, Igu didn't understand why everyone was meditating, so he had to walk around on the motorboat. The motorboat is very large, divided into two levels, with the console on the top deck and each deck on the upper and lower decks. Now everyone is on the upper deck, Ji Xiu is sitting on the right side, Yueguang Cheng is sitting on the left, Cai Wen is sitting at the back near the stairs, and Lao Qin is sitting on the control platform at the front.
At some point, the clouds came, the sky became darker, and there were no lights on the motorboat, because no one thought to turn them on. Igu walked next to Ji Xiu, his two big eyes turned left and right, and after confirming that no one was peeking, he rubbed Ji Xiu with the top of his head, and the ghost fox standing on top of Igu's head also learned this and rubbed Ji Xiu with the top of his head.
Plop - the sound of something entering the water was heard outside, and the sound of entering the water was clearly audible due to the eerily quiet all around. Igu leaned on the iron fence and looked over the swamp, but found nothing special. Igu began to sweat, and the oni fox stood on top of Igu's head, and at the feet of the oni fox was Igu's forehead, and beads of sweat the size of fingernails were appearing.
The ghost fox felt interested, it stepped on the beads of sweat with its feet, the white hair of the ghost fox still has the ability to resist water, the sweat could not penetrate into the hair of the ghost fox, the beads of sweat stepped on by the ghost fox were divided into two, and the beads of sweat merged again after the ghost fox let go of his feet. The ghost fox's small mouth turned slightly as if it was laughing, maybe it thought the sweat beads were funny, and even took Igu's sweat beads as if they were playing football.
Igu was staring at the swamp, and as time passed, Igu began to wonder if he had misheard, and although he had heard it clearly before, he was now beginning to doubt his ears.
Igu got down from the fence and touched his head with his hand, probably misheard. Igu turned and took a step, but he stepped into the air and fell from the upper deck to the lower deck. Igu turned around and looked up and saw Cai Wen's side face, how did he come to Cai Wen's side when he was next to Ji Xiu before.
Igu tilted his head sideways, completely confused, as he turned and looked around the lower deck, where there was nothing but unidentified materials scattered around. The only thing that has changed is that it is darker than before, and Igu is beginning to feel that it is time to turn on the lights, and if he doesn't turn them on, his vision will be affected.
Igu was looking for a lamp, and after looking for a while, he couldn't find it, and suddenly it occurred to him that Ji Xiu's long sword was inlaid with a lot of gems, which could be used for lighting, not to mention that the console was on the upper floor, maybe there would be a switch to turn on the lights on the upper floor.
Igu climbed up the stairs, which were iron vertical ladders that could only be used by one person at a time. Igu climbed the vertical ladder, climbing up with his hands and feet, his eyes level. After climbing for a while, I haven't reached the top yet, and I have climbed a few more steps, why haven't I reached the top yet.
Igu looked up and saw that he was still some distance from the top of the vertical ladder, but it was too close, and he only needed to climb a few more steps to get there. Igu lowered his head and continued to stare ahead as he climbed the vertical ladder. Stepping up the vertical ladder step by step, Igu's heartbeat accelerated, and he couldn't help but speed up the climb, then slowly slowed down, and finally stopped, Igu was stunned.
Igu slowly looked up, his neck seemed to become stiff, and his expression changed after looking at it, and there were still a few steps left from the top, just like he had seen before. Igu subconsciously looked at his feet as his feet slipped and his hands clutched the vertical ladder.
Igu struggled a few times with his feet, and then he stepped on the vertical ladder, and he turned his face back, as if he had thought about it on the wall, and hung motionless on the vertical ladder, that is, he did not climb down or climb down.
Igu's feet were shaking, and his eyes were closed, and he was struggling to close his own. Could it be that he was wrong, it was possible, so Igu planned to look at it again, slowly opened his eyes and looked at his feet.
This time I can't make a mistake, the height of the upper and lower decks of the motorboat has become larger, and the height difference between the upper and lower decks was only more than four meters before, but now it is more than ten meters. Igu's feet were at least three stories away from the lower deck.
"Ji ......" Igu could only utter one word, and then he felt his throat hoarse, as if something was blocking his throat.
It's so uncomfortable, it's so hard to breathe, and the contents of my stomach are going to vomit. As soon as Igu opened his mouth, a large amount of mud poured out of it, and the sand was like sandpaper rubbing against his esophagus, and the contents of his stomach and stomach were like being pumped up, hitting his esophagus and throat very forcefully.
Igu couldn't hold on, his hands and feet were already weak, and he fell from a vertical ladder more than ten meters high, but Igu did not fall to the lower deck, but fell into the swamp.
Through his hazy eyes, Igu could see that the motorboat was sinking, and the bottom of the airboat and the lower deck had sunk into the swamp, and because the upper deck had been pulled up three times the height for some reason, the upper deck was still high in the air, but the lower deck had been completely submerged in the swamp.
Igu had a pained expression on his face as he lay on the mud of the swamp, gradually sinking towards the swamp. However, there was a push from under the swamp, and an uncovered coffin emerged from the swamp, and the uncovered coffin came out of exactly where Igu was lying, and Igu was loaded into the coffin impartially.
"Ji ...... Elegant...... Big ......" Igu opened his mouth and tried to shout hard, but the voice he made was hoarse and small.
Suddenly, Igu's expression changed dramatically, and he became very frightened, and his mouth opened to the maximum, and his mouth was full of mud. The coffin containing Igu was shaking violently, and the muddy water in the swamp was squeezed by the coffin, and the muddy water poured into the coffin, covering Igu's body little by little, first the ears, and then the muddy water covered Igu's eyes and mouth, leaving only his nose still above the muddy water.
Suddenly, it was dark, the lid of the coffin appeared, and the coffin was closed, and the whole coffin sank into the swamp. A wooden coffin can also sink in a swamp, like a pair of black hands sitting under the coffin to sink the coffin.
At this time, on the upper deck of the motorboat, Lao Qin secretly opened his eyes, he secretly glanced at Ji Xiu and Yueguang Cheng, and found that these two people were still meditating, and he tried to meditate for a while, but he couldn't settle down as deeply as them.
"If you don't play, you don't know what you're doing. Lao Qin stood up with a loud shout, Lao Qin felt his stomach and seemed to be a little hungry, it should be time for dinner.
"Monkey, I bought a lot of compressed biscuits in the Imperial City of Zeguo, there are several flavors, what flavor do you want, banana flavor?" Lao Qin opened the zipper of his backpack and took out several boxes of compressed biscuits.
"Monkey?" Lao Qin realized at this time that Igu was not on the upper deck of the motorboat, so Lao Qin came to Cai Wen's side, looked at Cai Wen and said: "She looks very beautiful, but no matter how she looks at it, she looks like a fifteen-year-old girl, how can she be Yueguangcheng's mother, and her son is older than being a mother." ”
Lao Qin came to the top of the vertical ladder, poked his head out and looked down, it was normal below, it was the lower deck with all kinds of unknown materials, but it was very dark and he couldn't see the specific situation below.
"Monkey!" Lao Qin shouted.
"Strange, where did you go, could it be impossible to jump into the swamp when you ran into the cabin? Lao Qin joked to himself, he didn't think too much, so he climbed down the vertical ladder.
"It's so dark, I can't see anything, I knew that I took a flashlight from my backpack, and the flashlight I just bought also has an electric shock function, and the lighting is added to self-defense. Lao Qin didn't bring his backpack down, and he didn't bother to climb up to look for it, so he looked for Igu on the lower deck.
The lower deck is just a few square meters, and after looking for a circle, no one is nobody, Lao Qin looked in the direction of the motorboat hatch and said, "Could it be that the monkey really ran into the cabin?"
There is a hatch on the lower deck, which is the internal space that connects the motorboat, and inside is the cabin part with living functions, and Lao Qin is walking towards the hatch.
