Chapter 199: Ghost Ship
"Don't be busy sleeping yet, pick up two things and hold them in your hand." Ah Chuan kicked the wooden box and said to me.
I didn't hesitate, I went to pick two short swords that were only about a foot long, too long weapons were not suitable for me, I didn't have the strength and experience to dance them out, and no matter how short they were, I felt that it was not safe, so I chose a moderate one.
"Take this one too, hide it in the cuff."
Ah Chuan squatted down, picked out a delicate and delicate * from it, and threw it to me twice.
I've always thought that * is something for women, but there is a different kind of beauty in watching Ah Chuan play with it, but I have never used it, and it is easy to cut myself, and Ah Chuan must have other intentions for letting me hold it.
I touched the cuffs, there is indeed a hidden bag there, the clothes of the Mo family are specially made, and hidden weapons can be hidden everywhere in the body, but unfortunately I can't use it, I guess Eleven and Nineteen must be full of mysteries.
I shoved it in, it wasn't a hidden weapon, it was easy to see if I looked closely, and it wasn't very comfortable with my wrist, so I moved it to put it in a proper position, but it was weird everywhere.
"Why bring this? Weird awkward. I spoke.
"It's going to work." Ah Chuan smiled, as if there was something hidden in his eyes.
I couldn't understand it, and he didn't mean to explain, so he took out a tiny, very thin blade from another small box and handed it to me.
"Put this in the compartment of the cassette pocket."
I was startled, and I touched it again to notice something unusual, there was indeed a smaller reverse pocket at the bottom of the pocket, it was too small, and it could only fit into this blade.
"This batch of clothes is newly designed, and the mezzanine is newly added." He said it casually.
"Okay, and these gadgets, stuff all the places you can hide on you." Ah Chuan picked out a lot of sharp weapons, large and small, and stuffed them into me.
Killing chickens with a knife, just with my skills, unless I am given a Gundam, it is useless to stuff as much as I want, I hesitated, but these gadgets are not heavy, and the plug is stuffed.
The cuffs on the other side, the placket, the neckline, and the inside of the waistband of the pants were all stuffed by me, although it was useless, it was also comforting, I stood up and jumped twice, it would not hinder the movement, so I really looked like an agent.
If it was Lao Huang, he would be very excited, he always likes these hot-blooded anime can only appear in the style of pulling things, I turned my head and looked at Brother Shen, he didn't take anything, and the Mo family didn't mean to let him choose.
There was a hint of excitement in my nervousness, I couldn't sleep at all after tossing and turning in the middle of the night, everyone was quiet, but I knew they were reacting faster than when I was awake.
I fell asleep at dawn, and I had so much energy that I slept very deeply, and when I woke up, I saw a blinding light coming into the cabin, and everyone was gone.
I got up and shook my head, my head hurt slightly, as if I had slept too much, I went out of the cabin, and saw Ah Chuan and Brother Shen standing on the deck, Eleven dancing with a sword in the shadow of the stern, his body was clean and beautiful, his slender figure was like a woman, and with the masculine air unique to men, there were no flashy moves, but every step was a killing move.
It was the first time I saw him wielding a sword, and it was really shocking, this teenage boy flew like a butterfly in the light of the sword, as if he had traveled through a thousand years in an instant.
The boat was changed to nineteen, Ah Qing was lying on the chair in the cab and sleeping soundly, the weather was fine, the breeze was warm, the warm sun shone people from the outside to the inside, everyone was leisurely, as if we were not going to perform a mission, but simply going out to sea to fish.
The sun had risen overhead, and I had slept for so long, and when Ah Chuan saw me come out, he turned around and smiled: "Do you want to swim a few laps in the sea?" ”
I shook my head, his interest was good, even Brother Shen was indifferent, there was no tense and serious atmosphere last night, I couldn't help but ask: "Do you know where the floating island is?" ”
"According to the data of the day before yesterday, this thing is not running fast, and it will be dozens of nautical miles if it dies, it is so big that you can see it at a glance, and the day before yesterday it was still nearly 100 meters below sea level, I think it is difficult to say whether it can float up today."
"If we don't come up, are we going to dive in?" I panic when I think about it.
"Don't worry, wait for it to float completely before going, since he wants to take the lead, he will have to bear the consequences of taking the lead, even if he gets the jade, we are sure to get it back."
"So who the hell is he?"
Ah Chuan stopped talking, his eyes were suddenly full of killing intent, just like when Brother Shen mentioned Nineteen, but there was no jealousy and hatred, only killing intent, this person seemed to have no grievances with him, but he just wanted to kill him.
The killing intent disappeared in just an instant, and Ah Chuan's voice became impatient: "Don't ask if you shouldn't know, it's me who should make a knot with him, there won't be a next time, do you remember the fighting skills you practiced?" ”
I nodded, "Yes." ”
"Just remember, he definitely won't go alone, in case he really meets guys he doesn't know inside, remember to deal with them in the way he has learned......" Ah Chuan said, his voice gradually lowered, and he changed his tone again, "Forget it, with your current level, you will definitely suffer a loss, if you really meet, surrender quickly, and honestly may be able to pick up a life, I can't be sure of their bottom limit." ”
I looked at him dumbfounded, Ah Chuan not only knew them very well, but also seemed to have had a lot of contact, shouldn't the enemy be endless? How could the Mo family let these people exist to this day?
I had a question, looking at Ah Chuan's appearance, I would definitely not tell me, I couldn't help but touch the hidden weapon stuffed all over my body, if there was a real situation, I would probably be so frightened that I took out a handful and threw it away.
The lunch was canned roast meat, and the only food they stuffed into their backpacks was compressed beef, and there were so many supplies on the ship that we couldn't bring them all, and the food was especially small, and it could last a week at most.
Because we couldn't get fresh water in the sea, we had to carry it ourselves, and most of the backpacks were full of water, which was also a week's supply, and it seemed that they thought a week was enough to go back and forth, and I couldn't make up my mind until I saw the floating islands with my own eyes.
I sat down on the deck, far away from them, this boatload of people is either a cold-faced iceberg, or it will bring me psychological pressure, the only one who can speak, Ah Qing also fell asleep, I glanced at Nineteen, the momentum on his body has changed, he has completely lost the familiarity before, he has become like a sharp sword, I can vaguely detect that he has an unusual relationship with those who kidnapped the Si family.
It's too complicated, I licked my lips, I know that my skills are very poor, so if I really meet it, I will definitely surrender like Ah Chuan said, I don't want to get involved in the Mo family's affairs, I just want to unlock the blood curse, although the purpose of those people is also jade, but no matter who gets it, as long as they can unlock the blood curse.
The ship was still sailing, there was not a single ship or an island to be seen on the vast sea, and occasionally a bird flying high would pass overhead, and it was impossible to see what the bird was, and the sun was so full that it looked like May.
I returned to the cabin, fell asleep again in a daze, and when I awoke it was dark, and there was still a little light at the end of the sea.
We ate some more, and I was so used to one meal a day that I couldn't eat at all, so I had to stuff some indiscriminately, and it got dark very quickly, and I calculated that in two or three hours I should see the floating island.
The lights on the ship were on, and the shadows shone on the sea, peaceful and quiet, and the stars appeared on the endless canopy of heaven one after another, even on the island, which had never been seen so beautifully.
I sat on the deck, looking straight up, and I didn't feel my neck sore, but suddenly I heard Ah Qing shout: "There is a ship 27 degrees and 30 nautical miles south-east." ”
I was startled and quickly stood up, Ah Chuan and the others all gathered around, and Nineteen's voice was serious and low: "Is there anyone on the boat?" ”
Ah Qing frowned: "Something is wrong, there is a problem with this ship, the fly can't go up, it ...... on it"
Ah Qing's words stopped abruptly, he suddenly turned his head to look at me, I don't know why, I saw that as soon as the nineteen generals turned the rudder, the ship changed direction.
"Let's go and see, do you see the floating island?" Nineteen asked.
Ah Qing shook his head: "Not yet, thirty nautical miles is already the limit." ”
Nineteen didn't say anything more, we headed in the direction of the ship, I looked at the waves crashing on the side of the boat, and I could feel the direction of the current change, we were going against the current, but now we are off, if the ship is unmanned, it should have drifted from above.
That's the direction of the floating islands.
I waited anxiously, and soon we saw the shadow floating on the sea, the boat was not lit, and there was no one at sight.
As we got closer, I suddenly smelled a strong, pungent smell, like the smell of stinky fish and rotten shrimp that had been corroded by strong acid, and the source of the smell was the ship.
The speed of the voyage slowed down, and the ship was indeed unmanned and did not anchor, but floated with the current, and from a distance, it looked like a ghost ship.
My heart was beating a drum, this was exactly like the ghost ship in the supernatural story, unmanned but unsinkable, eternal and eternal.
The boat was an ordinary fishing boat, made of traditional wood, completely different from our tin boat, and the closer it got to it, the stronger the pungent smell became, like food residue that had been fermented for many days, even if it was a rotting corpse.
I raised my hand to cover my nose, no one said anything, and I didn't dare show disgust, and we leaned over to the ship, and in the dim light I saw that the whole hull was wrapped in a strange and disgusting slime, which emitted a monstrous sour smell and was dripping into the sea.
The ship seemed to have been badly corroded, tattered, the frame was crushed and deformed, the glass was all shattered, and I saw that the anchor chains were broken, and the chains that had been very thick were rotten like rags, dangling and swaying on the side of the ship.
