561 Usual (?) ) of the banquet and set sail
561
The splendid hall is not only lavishly decorated but also so huge that it is hard to believe that it is actually on a ship.
Carpets, champagne towers, long tables lined with food, small symphony bands playing cheerful music on stage, and a three-story ceiling full of frescoes depicting happiness and pleasure, with hanging streamers and giant chandeliers.
Delicate and delicate minds can be seen everywhere here, whether it is the carvings and engravings on cups, dishes, chopsticks, knives and forks, or the figures on the same height vase standing on one side, all of which take into account different tastes and the same luxury.
It looks like the lobby of any five-star hotel, nay, maybe even more luxurious.
People pushed their glasses, talked and laughed loudly, and acted out their happy masks, and they didn't know how much of the laughter was true or false.
Zhang Xiao saw such a scene as soon as he came in, and it was obvious that the banquet had started for a while.
This made him feel a little strange, obviously he came after the last group of prayer attendants on the ship had left, could those attendants have skipped their shifts to pray? If not, then when exactly did the banquet start?
However, after thinking that there might be hundreds of crew members, waiters, and security guards on this ship, Zhang Xiao let go of some doubts, these people must not be able to work at the same time, but there is a shift rotation, maybe those who go to pray go to pray when they are free.
Zhang Xiao shook his head and didn't think about it, he walked into the banquet hall and walked slowly towards the dining table.
His dress and skin color still attracted the attention of some people, but he behaved naturally and was not flustered at all, so he still did not arouse the suspicion of others, and then Zhang Xiao was as he had planned before, to be a transparent person, to do two more and two not-see more and eat more, and ignore it; Be prepared for change and be caught off guard.
His action was very successful, although he had been eating, but because his movements were natural and not rude, so he was not conspicuous, and a small number of devout believers saw the yellow-skinned priest eating slowly, so they did not come forward to disturb the conversation.
Zhang Xiao just slowly and leisurely dangled in front of the table, observing the situation in the hall from the edge of the banquet, and hearing the conversation of people on the terrace (side of the boat), everything was just as he had originally expected.
But the more time passed, the more gloomy Zhang Xiao's face became, and he was not relaxed, as if the black clouds were overpowering, and even the delicious food in his hands had lost the ability to make him relaxed, because he felt more and more that something was wrong, and this feeling did not diminish because of the ordinary banquet in front of him, but more and more, more and more serious.
This made Zhang Xiao very uneasy, he didn't understand what was going on, what he was ignoring.
But time passed minute by minute, nothing changed happened, the banquet was going on calmly, people were talking and laughing, but Zhang Xiao, who was originally like a transparent person, made the people around him pay attention to this strange priest because of his more and more serious expression.
Zhang Xiao had no idea what he was nervous about, but he knew he had to do something.
Leave, this place that gives him a bad feeling he must get out of here!
Zhang Xiao threw down the plate in his hand, didn't look at the strange eyes of the people around him, and walked towards the door of the banquet hall without looking back.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Quantum cruise ......"
At this moment, the lights suddenly went out, and only the light column of a spotlight shone in the center of the banquet hall, where a master of ceremonies with a microphone appeared at some point and said the opening remarks, and it seemed that this banquet had another part besides eating and drinking.
The sudden extinguishing of the light made Zhang Xiao's heart slightly startled, but hearing the voice behind him made Zhang Xiao quickly understand, he didn't stop, because he didn't care about what other interesting programs were here.
The master of ceremonies did not stop because of the departure of a strange priest, he did not see Zhang Xiao's departure at all, he was talking according to the script, and from time to time he added a few talk shows, which completely attracted the attention of those tourists in the hall who attended the banquet, and enjoyed the rare opportunity to stand on the stage in the spotlight.
It's just that the emcee and the emcee must have brought some trouble to Zhang Xiao, and those passengers didn't have Zhang Xiao's good eyes, and they all looked at the emcee in the light, completely ignoring that a priest wearing a black monk's robe next to him was going backwards.
Zhang Xiao is like a fish swimming against the current, struggling to swim against the current in the crowd.
He didn't dare to use too much strength, you must know that the nightmare was still on him, locked in the possessed state, in this case, Zhang Xiao's own strength was very strong, but he didn't dare to show it at all.
It should be said that his current difficulty is not that it is difficult to squeeze out of the crowd, but that it is difficult to squeeze out of the crowd without hurting these people.
But no matter how long the road is, there is an end, not to mention that the farther away from the middle of the banquet, the fewer people there are.
Zhang Xiao soon breathed in the fresh air and saw the open door of the banquet in front of him.
“…… 4、3、2、1、0!! Now, the Quantum cruise ship has officially set sail!! ”
Woo——————
At this moment, Zhang Xiao heard the countdown of the master of ceremonies behind him, as well as the simulated retro whistle on the cruise ship, and it seemed that at this time, the cruise ship set sail.
However, this cruise ship is too big, Zhang Xiao can hardly feel the movement of sailing, and there is no bump under his feet.
Zhang Xiao didn't think much about it, and walked straight out of the banquet hall, the door closed behind him, isolating the noisy and cheerful sound inside.
At this time, he still didn't feel anything unusual, but the pressure on his heart didn't decrease at all.
The sea breeze blew slightly, making Zhang Xiao feel very comfortable, he relaxed slightly, lying on the railing on the side of the ship, watching the coast slowly move away.
Only at this time can Zhang Xiao be sure that the cruise ship has started and is slowly moving away from the dock.
At this time, the wharf is also brilliantly lit, and the modern lights reflect this place as bright as day, but I don't know if it is the relationship between the color of the lights.
"Huh?"
Zhang Xiao's heart jumped, he stood up straight, he blinked, and then looked at the shore.
It was still brightly lit, but it seemed to be farther away from the cruise ship, but Zhang Xiao felt that what he saw just now was not his hallucination—just now, he did see that the light over there seemed to be losing color.
It was a strange feeling, not that the light there became black and white, but that the light was taken away from the concept of color in that instant.
It's just that now it seems that it was just his hallucination, and there doesn't seem anything unusual about it.
Shaking his head a little suspiciously, Zhang Xiao didn't know if he was hallucinating because of too much pressure, or if something really happened just now, he couldn't feel anything.
"Whew...... The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and now it's better to sleep and talk about other things. ”
Zhang Xiao has no other way now, and he can't see anything strange, everything seems to be his imagination, he hasn't had a good rest for a few days, it seems that he has nothing to do except go to sleep.
Zhang Xiao took a step and walked in the direction of the church, if there was still no priest there, then he would have to occupy the magpie's nest for a while.
Zhang Xiao didn't see that at this time, the deck of the ship's side corridor under his feet was far less clean than in the morning, although it was not sticky, but a layer of black paint had covered the surface of most of the corridor deck, and it seemed that it had been a long time.
And the source of those things is the banquet hall that Zhang Xiao left just now!
