Chapter 286: Drawing lots

After Old Man Liu finished speaking, he walked out, and Xiao Cheng and I entered the cabin, and I asked, "Xiao Cheng, do you know all these people?" ”

Xiao Cheng shook his head, "I don't know, but these people have different abilities, Old Man Liu is indeed a little capable, and he can collect so many strange people." ”

"The person who just spoke, and the person sitting next to him, should be habitual thieves, their fingers together, they have been trained since childhood."

"The three men over there, all their strength, their fingers are as black as carbon, and I see that there seems to be something in his backpack, if I'm right, those people are eating coffin meals."

Xiao Cheng then pointed to the man in the corner of the cabin: "That person is dressed in black, but the dagger pinned to his waist is smooth and shiny, and there is a barb on the back of the dagger, which should be a sea monkey who specializes in helping others kill people." ”

"The other three people, each with an iron hook on their backs, the iron hook is specially made, thin and long, with a curved hook, they are corpse diggers, but unlike you, they are experts in killing people and collecting corpses."

Xiao Cheng was silent for a moment and then said, "The others can't see any doorway. ”

Hearing Xiao Cheng say this, I feel a little confident in my heart, at least the people on the boat this time are experts found by Old Man Liu, and if anything happens, they can deal with it calmly.

When we looked at them, they were also looking at the people around them, but I was very strange that these people that Old Man Liu had found from all over the world didn't know each other, and they were all suspicious of each other, could they really go to the island together?

Until now, I don't know why Old Man Liu asked the three of us to get on the boat, and I don't know what he has in mind, so I can only follow all the way, and if there is something wrong, we will run.

Time passed quickly, and in order to conserve our strength, the three of us fell asleep in the cabin, and when we woke up, it was already night, and we woke up because of the fluctuations caused by the collision of the hull.

When I went out, I saw several crossbows painted with charms erected around the ship, all of which were made of mahogany, and when I approached the beach, the charms on those crossbows faintly glowed red, which meant that there were ghosts on the beach we were going to.

When I was still looking at the sea area opposite, Xiao Cheng had already walked out, and he was shocked when he saw the arrows and crossbows around the hull: "This old man Liu is rich enough, this ship can't buy a few villas, it's just a treasure cave, as for so much blood?" ”

"I don't think his target is like a treasure cave." I whispered back.

Old man Liu was able to spend such a large price to build this ship, which proves that his family is rich and can eat for a few lifetimes, so why take such a big risk to find some treasure cave, in this way, I am even more curious about his purpose.

At this time, Old Man Liu suddenly shouted: "It's just ahead, everyone be careful around, this sea area is not simple!" ”

I looked in the direction of Old Man Liu, and I couldn't see anything except the pitch-black sea. Could it be that someone has used illusion to hide the island?

"Ghost ship! It's a ghost ship! ”

I was wondering about the sea ahead when I heard someone shouting, and I turned my head to see a ship with sails coming towards us not far away.

The hull of the ship was dilapidated, with several large holes, and even more terrifying was that it was covered with moss, and a head could be faintly seen looking at us in the middle of the hole.

When I was in my hometown, I also heard about ghost ships.

It is said that if a family that begs for food on the water all year round dies, the people of the village will put the only body left of the family on the boat and let him go with the flow until the boat sinks.

And if someone encounters a ghost ship while salvaging on the water, they must burn incense and worship it, and then drive the boat away from the ghost ship to avoid colliding with the ghost ship, and sometimes they can't avoid it, and the people on the boat will work together to push the ghost ship away with the sail, and then spare it, because once the ghost ship collides with the ship, the ghost on the ship will keep haunting you until the boat is sunk.

Old man Liu stood on the bow of the boat and asked, "Brother Yang, how can you avoid this boat?" ”

"The ghost ship is obviously coming for our ship, and if you sink it with a crossbow, you'll be fine." The person who spoke was the corpse collector that Xiao Cheng pointed out to me before.

"Arrows can't be used in this place." Old man Liu refused repeatedly, "There is a fire in the cabin, pour some gasoline on it, and sink it!" ”

"Okay." Boss Yang answered, and led people into the cabin to get fire, and sank the ghost ship that was close to us in three or two clicks.

The moment the ghost ship sank, it was scattered on the surface of the sea with flames, but from the direction below, several broken corpses were faintly visible.

Taking advantage of the fire, I took advantage of the fire to take a look, and before I could take two steps, I felt the whole ship shake. By the time we all went over to see what had happened, there was a ghost ship stuck to the hull at some point.

Old man Liu was immediately angry: "What's the matter? How is there still a ghost ship in this? ”

"I, I don't know." The sailor who drove the ship was a little panicked, and Old Man Yang snatched the rudder in his hand and shouted, "Turn the rest of the rudder around!" Let's get rid of this ghost ship! ”

In this case, there is no other way but to get rid of the ghost ship, and if we use fire to sink it, it may affect our own ship, and the gains outweigh the losses.

And the ghost ship is attached to the stern of the ship, as Boss Yang said, it may be able to shake it off under a strong flick. The sailors on the ship did not dare to slack off, so they did as Boss Yang said.

The sudden rudder of the hull caused layers of waves on the sea, but in the next second, the entire hull suddenly sank for half a minute, and the people on board shook for a moment, almost not standing still.

Old man Liu was almost thrown to the ground by a stumbling man, and after finally standing firmly, he said angrily: "What's the matter? Why did the ship sink? ”

Boss Yang's face was also a little ugly, "There is not only one ghost ship, but also one under the boat, and there are ghosts pulling the boat under the boat." ”

I have also heard about this dead man pulling a boat, and the person who drowned in the water came across the boat, and he had to pull the person from the boat down to be reincarnated.

"Someone has to go down and get rid of this ghost."

Old man Liu took out an arrow and crossbow and threw it to Boss Yang, and said, "Then you go down, here is the best water nature for you, and you have done the most of this thing, so it is most appropriate for you to go." ”
