He looked at me without speaking, and suddenly said with a smile. It's just that his whole body is a little frighteningly white, and his laughter is even more chilling.

My heart suddenly felt a little sour, and I didn't know what to say.

A person who was still alive just now, still talking to me well, still blushing, at this time he became a ghost, at this time he had already died, and at this time he had completely disappeared from this world.

How fragile is human life?

It's called the sea, and when you die, you are thrown into the sea, what a ridiculous thing!

"I'll help you."

After struggling for a while, I still agreed, I didn't know how to refuse the sea, his eyes made me unable to refuse, begging eyes.

I don't want to see him disappointed, I can refuse, but when the words of rejection come out of my mouth, I can imagine what the sea will be like if I say no, what it will be like.

It was as if my heart had been torn apart in an instant.

Everything here has nothing to do with me, but I can't ignore everything, I can't do it, I really can't do it.

"Thank you!"

When I heard this, the eyes of the sea lit up, as if the dawn had suddenly arrived after thousands of years of darkness. He looked at me with excitement and gratitude.

"There is a master who salvages corpses in the east of the city, his ability is very strong, he does the work of salvaging corpses there there, the price is not high, if you go to him, he will agree, just say that it is salvaging me, and he will not accept money."

The sea still has friends here, at least the master who salvaged the corpse. Salvaging the dead is not an auspicious thing in the first place, let him salvage the sea he can still not charge money, and if he takes out a good friend, there is no one else.

"You know him?"

Although they should be good friends or something, I still asked, so as not to guess something wrong. I have heard that there are rules and taboos, what if people don't charge money because of taboos?

"In the past, many dead bodies on the dock were salvaged by him, and I didn't help him less, and slowly we got acquainted, and often went to him for a drink or something, which is the person I know best."

The sea was very nostalgic when he said this, but it was a pity that he was now a dead man, wandering in this world, existing in a special way, no one could see it, and the saddest thing was this.

"Well, I promise you."

As soon as I finished saying this, I wanted to ask the sea if there was anything else to explain, but when I looked up, he was gone, and disappeared into the room, as if he had come to me to retrieve his body.

After all, who wants their bodies to feed the fish and rot in the water?

I got up early the next day, and when I got up, Xu Zhimo had just come back, he should have stayed up late to sort out the manuscript, and he didn't sleep all night, and the whole eye was black all night, and he looked a little cute under the dark circles, but it also showed his tiredness.

Liu's mother had already boiled rice porridge and drank a bowl of rice porridge, and he would sleep in the room after he said a word. I promised the sea to go and give him the corpse of the big guy, and according to the address he said, I went to find the master who salvaged the corpse.

"Are you Master Zhao?"

The man who came to open the door was a man of forty or fifty years of age, with a flat head and a coarse cloth waistcoat. He looked at me with a sharp look in his eyes, as if he could penetrate everything, and I was chilled by him.

"I'm the one who is looking for me?"

He replied lightly, neither very welcoming nor annoying. I don't know if he is like this to people himself, or because of what.

"Well, I'm looking for you to salvage a corpse."

I thought Master Zhao would be excited when I said this, at least he had made money. But he still had that expression, not sad or happy, as if there was nothing else in this world that could make his expression change.

His city is deep.

"Where, who?"

He gave me a way and motioned for me to go in. And he went to get ready.

"Zhabei Wharf, the sea!"

When I said this, I saw Master Zhao's body obviously pause, he was facing away from me, he just stood in place in a daze, didn't say a word, I couldn't even feel that he was still breathing, and after a while, he came back to his senses and continued the movements in his hands.

He was holding hemp ropes, hooks, and bamboo poles.

The hemp rope is very thick, with the thickness of my big finger together, the hook is very sharp, I don't know what it is used for, the strange thing is the bamboo pole in his hand, the bamboo pole has been used for some years, it is so slippery that it is reflective, and I can't even see his bamboo joints.

"Let's go, take me!"

Picking up the guy, Master Zhao said to me, and his tone changed a little from when I just saw him before, I can't tell if it was there, my voice or my abdomen was pulling, I don't know.

I could tell he was upset, but there was nothing he could do.

Originally, I thought he had some underwater protection measures or something, such as wetsuits, lifebuoys, etc. But that's all he took. Nothing else.

When I arrived at the pier, it was already afternoon, and it was still the sun when I was at Master Zhao's house just now, but when I arrived at this pier, the sky was dark, much like the scene in Journey to the West - (the sky was covered).

There was no one on the pier, it was quiet, the sea breeze was blowing, everything was so calm, it was hard to imagine that this was the largest pier in Shanghai, probably because of the scuffle here yesterday, the porters were injured, so no one came to work.

I'm afraid that the shutdown here has been going on for a while.

"God really favors him, it can't be salvaged under the scorching sun, just now I was thinking about coming over and waiting until the sun goes down to be a big guy, I didn't expect that there was no sun here."

Master Zhao looked up at the sky, I don't really believe in God's words or anything like that, but he can believe it. However, I have seen it when I was able to control the clouds in the sky, twice when I was in the inexplicable lake, when the black dragon and the water ghost were encountered, I don't know if that person was Qin Zhaogao.

"Do you know exactly where it is?"

Master Zhao looked at me, obviously, I don't know the specific place where the body was dumped, he can't salvage it like this, this pier is not small, when will it be salvaged?

I walked to the position where I was talking to the sea yesterday, walked straight for more than a hundred meters facing the east, turned right and walked more than a hundred meters, pointed to the water area and said to Master Zhao.

This is where the sea tells me, and it shouldn't be wrong.

Master Zhao walked up to me and looked down at the water, not knowing what he was looking at. I can't see anything anyway, and it's strange that I can see anything in this bottomless place.

"That's right, he's right here."

Master Zhao's sudden words stunned me, how could he be so sure?

Master Zhao seemed to sense my confusion and incomprehension, turned his head to me and said, "I can smell him." ”

What is the rhythm of this? Why did you come up with this set? It's like watching a suspense movie. Not to mention whether you can taste the smell of the sea, you can smell it, but this has been left in the water for a day, can you ask? There was a fishy smell everywhere, and I didn't have anything but an eerie feeling.

"That's why I'm able to become a salvage master and be a little famous in this area."

Immediately afterward, Master Zhao explained this sentence to me again.

Yes, how could he be a household name in this place if he didn't have a skill? I thought about it for a moment, and I kind of believed what he said, and maybe he could actually smell the sea.

"I told him to leave this place a long time ago, this is not for him to stay, but he just doesn't believe it, and now that it has caused such a disaster, I can only help him with this matter, but this is the last thing I want to help."

As he spoke, Master Zhao began to take the hook and try it, throwing it into the water and pumping it up again after a while, repeating it constantly, this should be his start to salvage.

I walked to the side and sat and waited, salvaging the body was originally a long and arduous process, not to mention that in this era, there is no technology to technology, there is no manpower to manpower, he Master Zhao is alone, and I am not sure when he will be able to salvage it.

The only thing that's a little magical is what he says about being able to smell the smell, but it's not reliable, who knows if it's true or not? Only he knows if he can smell it.

This can't be explained by science, I can't understand it.

After waiting for more than an hour, Master Zhao still hadn't found the body of the sea, and kept trying to use which hook to throw, throwing it into the water and fishing it out, and kept repeating this action, but the position of the throw was constantly changing.

It's like a machine that can't be stopped, working and working.

"Master Zhao, can you find it?"

I've been holding back this sentence for a long time, and I've wanted to ask it for a long time, but it just started before, and I don't want to ask, after such a long time, I'm afraid he won't be old again.

And if I go back late, Xu Zhimo will inevitably ask me where I went, and how should I explain when the time comes? You can't say I've been hanging out all day, right?

"The water here is a bit deep, it may take a while!"

"Hey, there it is!"

Before the words of the master fell, he suddenly became a little tired, as if he had never encountered such a thing in the salvage industry for so long.

"Really?"

I immediately stood up and walked over to his side and stared at him, as if he were not looking for a corpse, but for a treasure.

"There are a lot of corpses here, and I don't know if it's him, so I'll go into the water and take a look."
