Chapter 10: Types of Ghost Ships
The corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at the phrase ghost ship, and almost in an instant, Lei Chan could think of all kinds of associative keywords such as shipwreck, resentful spirits, and the terrible sea.
There is no doubt that if he agrees to Milo's request and has something to do with this ghost ship, then he will definitely go to sea. Although water is the spirit of all things, there is also a saying in Lei Chan's mind: water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat.
God knows what kind of ghost ship he went to sea to find as if he was dying, would he just come back without his life? You know, it's the sea! Once there is no place to run except for accidents! So... Encountering this kind of danger factor can almost be said to be a task that exceeds the red line, of course Lei Chan said... Okay!
Belch... Readers are not mistaken, what Lei Chan said is: "Good! I'll go! ”
Milo was a little surprised, when he looked at Lei's appearance, he knew that this Chinese young man had never been a stable master, and he would definitely stand up when he encountered this kind of thing! The biggest proof is that his E-class exorcist can kill half of the little inferior demons who have evolved?
Of course, Milo is happy, but our protagonist is beeping.
In fact, when Lei Chan closed the notebook, turned to look out the window and installed an X, intending to reject Milo. Suddenly, I saw a thick black shadow suddenly appear at the corner of the street.
He was convinced that the shadow did not belong to this world, because a child had pierced through the shadow without the slightest reaction. Moreover, he knew that the shadow was very evil, because it was said by 'Olivia' on his shoulder.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but he faintly saw a man's figure from the dark shadow! The man's hand seemed to have sharp claws, and it was obviously just a black shadow, but Wen Zhong felt that the man in the black shadow turned his head and smiled at him!
A chill rushed from the soles of his feet directly to his back, and after he couldn't help but shiver, he turned to Milo without hesitation and said, "Okay! I'll go! ”
After all, when staying at home is more dangerous than being outside, going out to take shelter is the best option. It's just that this guy didn't react for a while, even if he went out to take refuge, he could refuse the ghost ship case, right?
...
When Lei Chan reacted and was very annoyed, it was already three days after leaving home. He sat in the passenger seat of the pickup truck, looking at the end of the horizon in the distance ahead with some pain. At this time, he and Milo were on their way to Georgia, and because of some preparations, they drove for nearly three days to reach their destination, after all, the place where the accident happened was by the sea.
By the time the two reached their destination, the town called Beaver, it was getting late. Don't expect any reception, after all, the two came here alone, not under the orders of the Brotherhood. After finding a random motel, the two moved in.
During the night, Milo still opened the materials sent to him by Ray-Ban to study.
Lei Chan was in his room, pretending to be watching TV, but in fact he was communicating with 'Olivia'.
(Olivia, what do you think of the ghost ship incident this time?) )
'Olivia' didn't seem to be very interested in the news of the ghost ship, but instead lazily lay on Lei Chan's shoulder and said, "The places where the ghost ship will appear are mostly where some resentful spirits gather. It's the kind of place where something like this happens at the same time almost every year. However, this so-called ghost ship incident has not appeared in any previous records. ”
(So...) You're saying that this time things are weird? )
"Not necessarily, maybe there is a time gap. The same thing happens every once in a while, so you can check it. But..."
Lei Chan was a little surprised, 'Olivia' rarely spoke: (But what?) )
"This time, you'd better not go to sea. Ghost ships, once you set foot on them, are like being cursed by resentful spirits. Do you know the types of ghost ships? ”
(There are other types of ghost ships?) Lei Chan said he looked confused.
'Olivia' finally came to some energy, and no longer lazily stayed on Lei Chan's shoulder, but flew in front of him. She tugged at the ends of her black hair, stared at Lei Chan with two red eyes and said:
"There are two types of ghost ships, the first is the Ghost Ship and the second is the Ship for Ghost. Although the two pronunciations are slightly different, they are completely different resentful spirits.
The first type of ghost ship, as the name suggests, is the hull itself. The ship has a will of its own because it has been at sea for too long. When the ship is damaged and sinks to the bottom of the sea, the ship's will will control the wreckage and continue to sail on the sea, which is the fate of the ghost ship. Of course, this kind of ghost ship is relatively harmless, and occasionally found by other ships on the sea, it will quickly disappear into the fog. Unless someone dies, there will be no accident at all.
The second type, the Ship for Ghost, is the exact opposite of the first. The spirits themselves are the spirits of the dead who have died in the sea, and they are not willing to be buried in the sea, and they will find the wreckage of a ship and continue to sail on the sea. Once they find another ship sailing on the seas, they will manipulate the wreckage of that ship to appear nearby, and conjure the humans on the ship into the ship with gold, and use their souls to become part of the ship instead of themselves. According to the Celestial Empire, it is... Find a stand-in!
But in any case, these two ghost ships appeared on the sea, and they were the embodiment of the curse. Once you set foot on the ghost ship, your soul is already part of the River Styx, and you can't escape the sea again!
So I think even if you go out to sea to find those who are missing, it will be in vain. Now that you've been connected to the ghost ship, it proves that these guys are going to die, so why take the risk again? ”
Lei Chan also smiled bitterly, (Maybe you're right, but I've already promised Milo.) But I'm sure my luck won't be so good. It's a ghost ship, and if you run into it casually, thousands of people don't die on the sea every year? Don't worry, I won't get up even if I see the ghost ship. )
'Olivia' sneered: "According to current statistics, there are as many as 178 unnatural deaths in shipwrecks this year, as an exorcist, do you really naively think that you will not be able to touch the ghost ship?" ”
Lei Chan suddenly wilted, unable to even speak, considering that his face seemed to be black, he couldn't help but start thinking about what 'Olivia' said.
But at this moment, his door was slammed, and Milo's voice came from outside the door: "Thunder! I have made a new discovery! ”
