Chapter 89: Round
The strange fish received this fatal blow, although the body was still struggling, but everyone could see that this was already the end of the strong crossbow, Song Qing released his feet and let go of the dagger back, and the strange fish's body fell back to the floor with a 'bang', still rolling and struggling, making a 'clang' sound.
The big man hurriedly threw away the head of the strange fish hanging on his collar, and for the rest of his life, he didn't even have time to say words of thanks, and just reached out to wipe his face, he lay on the side of the boat and began to vomit.
The strange fish with half of its head cut off was still struggling desperately, blood slowly gushing out from the fracture, and its long body was spinning around on the deck, even if it was in a near-death state, it still made people dare not lean over.
Song Qingxiao took out a tissue from the pocket of her clothes, slowly wiped the blood on the dagger, she noticed the machete with a curled blade at the foot of the big man who was vomiting, since Mr. Zhou chose to hire someone to go to the island, the weapon prepared would naturally not be inferior, but such a weapon rolled up when cutting and killing strange fish, you can imagine how hard the scales are.
But what made her feel strange was that the strange-shaped dagger in her hand had not been damaged in several fights with the strange fish, even if Song Qingxiao underestimated the thickness and strength of the strange fish's scales at the beginning, and when the tip of the knife collided with it, there was a screeching sound when the metal was handed over, but the tip of the knife was not damaged, which was enough to see the peculiarity of this dagger.
At first, she just thought that this dagger that almost killed her had a strange shape, and the reason why she kept it by her side was not only because it could be brought into the trial space, but also because she wanted to use it to find out who was doing it to her at that time.
But the No. 6 he met in the last trial later asked about this dagger, and then found someone to hunt him down, and now the sharpness of this dagger, Song Qingxiao vaguely felt that this dagger was not simple.
This was not the time to think about the origin of the dagger, she wiped the dagger clean and put it away again, the strange fish on the boat was still struggling, but it was already the end of the crossbow.
On the deck, everyone looked at her with a somewhat complicated expression, and after making sure that the strange fish was not a big threat, the bodyguards blocking in front of Mr. Zhou slowly dispersed, revealing the complicated expressions of Mr. Zhou and Zhou Xueli.
The other hired were surprised, curious, fearful, and speculative, but the trialists all showed jealous expressions one after another.
No. 7's expression was complicated, her hand was still dripping blood, compared to Song Qingxiao, who killed a fish, but was still calm.
"What's going on?"
In the fluttering sound of the strange fish dying and struggling, Mr. Zhou held back his anger and asked.
As the blood of the strange fish spread across the deck, the smell of blood grew thicker, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to press lower, making the sky darker.
"In the afternoon, this ......" Mr. Zhou opened his mouth to ask, and the hired person who was eager to please Mr. Zhou opened his mouth to explain the situation in front of him, he pointed to Song Qingxiao, and just said a few words, he remembered the fierce methods of Song Qingxiao when he killed the fish before, and immediately shrank his neck, and changed the words to his mouth:
"This young lady asked for fishing gear and caught a fish."
There is a person at the beginning, and then someone talks in a few words:
“…… At first, there were no fish to be hooked, but just now, the fishing rod was suddenly bitten bait, and the ...... 'fish' was caught. ”
Speaking of fish, the speaker paused for a moment.
The existence of this fish is beyond everyone's knowledge, it is struggling not as hard as before, but its tail is still moving, and its tenacious vitality is very surprising.
Everyone can also observe this fish at this time, it is nearly two meters long, and it was in a trance that its body was the thickness of an ordinary woman's wrist, but after a closer look at it at this time, its body is flat and narrow, and the hideous bone spurs that come out of the body make it look much larger than the actual body.
Its head had been shaved off and tossed aside, but everyone remembered the sharp teeth of the fish when it opened its mouth.
After being caught on the boat, it injured several people one after another, and all of these things made this thing look like a monster instead of a fish.
Mr. Zhou had already seen the scene after the fish got on the boat, his face was extremely ugly, his hands were crossed on his waist, and his eyes were gloomy staring at Song Qingxiao:
"Didn't I already warn you not to make trouble on the boat before you go to the island?"
Mr. Zhou clearly meant to blame Song Qingxiao, but everyone on the boat did not speak, and following Mr. Zhou's words, his eyes looked at Song Qingxiao, with some accusations in his expression.
Especially the injured people, they were even more dissatisfied, and they all felt that they would be injured, which was related to Song Qingxiao's trouble.
If it weren't for the strong strength shown by Song Qingxiao before, I am afraid that everyone would have already scolded loudly.
"So Mr. Zhou thinks that this matter is the trouble I caused?"
In the face of Mr. Zhou's rebuke, Song Qingxiao was no longer as silent as when he entered the task, but asked.
"Isn't it?"
Her rhetorical question made Mr. Zhou stunned for a moment, obviously a big man like Mr. Zhou is not used to being confronted like this, and his eyes are a little more gloomy:
"If it weren't for the fact that you caught such a fish, it wouldn't have hurt anyone on the boat and caused these things."
Everyone apparently agreed with Mr. Zhou's statement, and as soon as his voice fell, the injured man followed:
"That's right."
"I think it's the exact opposite."
At this point, the boat is already close to the island, Mr. Zhou is not ready to reveal the truth, this situation is extremely dangerous, Song Qingxiao deliberately forced him, so that he was somewhat jealous, so that the people on the boat were a little mentally prepared, so that they would not finish the game soon after going to the island.
"You may not have noticed that a few days ago, when the boat was sailing in this direction, there were occasional schools of fish around the boat."
As soon as she spoke, even though some people were still dissatisfied, because of the strength she showed, no one dared to interrupt when she spoke:
"Since yesterday evening, there have been fewer fish. Until noon on this morning's voyage, there were no fish at all. ”
As Song Qing spoke, her eyes looked in the direction of the trialist, and the elderly woman frowned, and the scholar in the suit, the young man in the sixth, and the seventh all stared at her, waiting for her to say what was going on.
No. 7 had already been reminded by Song Qingxiao, but she didn't care about it at first, and didn't take Song Qingxiao's words to heart, thinking that she was just pretending to be a ghost.
But at this time, Song Qingxiao raised this question again, or in front of Mr. Zhou, and No. 7 already felt that something was wrong in his heart.
"From noon to the afternoon, there was no fish in the sea, as evidenced by the fact that I had been fishing for hours without a fish being baited." Song Qing came here and smiled:
"You don't get what that means, do you?"
This proves that the creatures of the sea can sense the existence of danger, and the instinct to avoid evil and auspiciousness makes them dare not approach this side of the sea.
Immediately after that, the boat moved forward again, and a few hours later a school of fish appeared in the sea, and they were fierce and abnormally vicious, and one of them caused everyone on the boat to turn on their backs.
Combined with the fact that Zhou Xueli said three days ago that she would enter the island in three days, it is not difficult to know that this group of ferocious fish lives near the island where Mr. Zhou is going.
This fish is fierce and abnormal, in groups, and has a hideous appearance, which is simply unheard of and unseen.
Song Qingxiao's gaze slowly swept over the people on the deck, and everyone she saw felt that this gaze seemed to carry substantial pressure, and when she swept it, many people subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to look at her.
"I'm not an expert in marine life, but this kind of fish, as far as I know, I haven't seen it, I don't know if anyone knows anything about marine life and can give me some pointers," she said here, paused for a moment, and out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that the scholar was about to speak, but Song Qingxiao didn't give him a chance, and then said his own words:
"Let's see if this fish is a new species that has never been discovered, or if for some reason, it has been infected by an unknown one."
The moment she spoke, the aborigines in the hired scene looked dazed, and the faces of the trialists, including No. 7, changed drastically, and Mr. Zhou's expression was complicated, revealing a sense of fear and jealousy, plus a sense of emptiness after the secret was discovered.
His performance like this was only for a moment, and it was really because Song Qingxiao's words poked at the bottom of his heart that he couldn't help revealing his true emotions as a smooth businessman, and soon he put all his expressions into those narrowed eyes.
The scholar couldn't hide the shock, and No. 7 also turned pale, and at this moment, after Song Qingxiao explained her words, she realized what Song Qingxiao's mention meant.
"A few days ago, Mr. Zhou once said that we are about to go to the island, before we go to the island, let's not make trouble for you."
Song Qingxiao doesn't care if her words have set off a monstrous wave in everyone's hearts, she must find out the matter when Mr. Zhou is obviously targeting her at this time, find some trouble for Mr. Zhou, so that he can't use this matter to make his own article, and at the same time reveal some news to give everyone an 'explanation'.
She is not afraid that the aborigines of the hired scene will not make trouble, to such a point, it is a matter of life and death for the trialists, they will not give up, and will always find ways to take something out of Mr. Zhou's mouth.
"When is this time to go to the island? The existence of this fish is not accidental. ”
Every time Song Qingxiao asked a word, Mr. Zhou's face became more and more ugly, fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, and a group of scholars followed behind him looked at each other, feeling at a loss.
Shirley frowned, stared at Song Qing for a long time, and suddenly said a round:
"What the hell are you trying to say? If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later, and I'll finish the deck first. ”
The big man who was leaning on the side of the boat and vomiting vomited for a long time, dizzy and stood firm, deliberately wanting to please Shirley, so he deliberately changed the topic, and when he saw the half of the fish head that had been cut off by him on the ground before, he stretched out his legs to kick:
"It's this thing."
He was wearing flip-flops, bare-toed, and kicked the fish in the head when something happened.
