Chapter 180: Into the Vastness
PS: Please make the first decision, thank you book friends.
At this moment, the bronze boat stopped, and with this shaking, they quieted down and looked at Xia Qing beside them.
Xia Qing had actually been standing beside Gao Chao and the fat man for a long time, but they had been arguing just now, so neither of them noticed Xia Qing.
As a result, looking at it like this now, both Gao Chao and the fat man were startled.
I saw that Xia Qing was standing on the deck at this moment, holding the 95 bar in her hand, and I don't know when, she had already taken the gun from Wang Lianba, and the muzzle of the 95 bar at this moment was actually facing Gao Chao and the fat man.
This made Gao Chao and the fat man calm down all of a sudden, and they both stared at Xia Qing, but they were both a little overwhelmed.
Gao Chao looked at Xia Qing puzzled and said, "Xia Qing? You...... What are you doing here? ”
The fat man also said, "That's right! Xia Qing, aren't we in a group? ”
Both of them looked at Xia Qing blankly, but Xia Qing shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "It's a gang, but I have to do this." ”
Gao Chao was stunned and said, "You...... What are you going to do? ”
Xia Qing sighed and said, "You two do what I say now, otherwise I'll shoot ......" She looked at Gao Chao, and then added solemnly: "I'm not joking, if you two are not honest, I will definitely not show mercy." ”
Gao Chao and the fat man looked at Xia Qing, they were very surprised, they didn't think that they had just been freed from Wang Lianba's clutches, and they actually fell into Xia Qing's control again.
Gao Chao sighed, though. also had to accept his fate, so he had to say again: "Then you say, what do you want us to do?" ”
Xia Qing said: "It's actually very simple. The two of you crouch down and continue beating the drums. ”
"Drum beating?" The fat man was surprised at this time: "Miss Xia, you are not mistaken, right?" You're pointing your gun at us like this just to make us beat the drum? ”
Xia Qing nodded, but said with a smile: "That's right, it's just beating the drum, how about it?" I'm not demanding, am I? ”
But Gao Chao understood at this time. So Gao Chao sighed and said to the fat man: "Fat man, don't forget, as long as the drum sounds." The ship will move again. ”
The fat man suddenly realized and said, "Oh...... I see, it turns out that Xia Qing you want us to beat the drum and then send this ship to the sea. But...... But if we keep knocking. Where will the ship go? ”
Xia Qing was still holding the gun, she shook her head helplessly, and said, "I really don't know about this, I can only say that it will definitely take us to find the truth." ”
Gao Chao wondered: "The truth? The truth about what? ”
Xia Qing looked at Gao Chao, but suddenly raised the muzzle of the gun, and pointed at the position between Gao Chao and the fat man, without hesitation. A shot was fired with a "bang".
The bullet passed between Gao Chao and the fat man, and Gao Chao and the fat man were stunned by this cold shot.
Gao Chao's mouth was open. looked at Xia Qing, but Xia Qing ordered lightly at this time: "Now, beat the drum." ”
The drum beat of "Dong Dong Dong" sounded again, the huge bronze ship trembled and moved again, it slowly slid into the light blue water, and after a while, the whole hull entered the sea, the waterline gradually rose, the hull also stabilized a lot, the drum did not stop, this bronze ship, in the midst of this drum beat, towards the deep blue and mysterious sea.
Xia Qing was sitting on the deck at the bow of the boat at this time, some distance from Gao Chao and the fat man, she seemed to be watching them beat the drum absentmindedly, but in her hand, she still held the 95 bar.
Wang Lianba is still in a coma, and there is no room for the fat man's kick just now, and he doesn't know if he can wake up again at this moment.
And Gao Chao and the fat man were beating the bronze drum very helplessly, and the fat man kept grinning, because he heard that the drum surface of this bronze drum was made of human skin, so every time he knocked it, he felt a little disgusted.
Although Gao Chao also has some taboos about human skin drums, but at this moment he has been looking at Xia Qing not far away, in fact, Gao Chao did not blame Xia Qing in his heart, on the contrary, he actually understood her a little.
He knew why Xia Qing was forcing them with a gun, because he had told Xia Qing in the tunnel that if he thought that there was any possibility of life-threatening in the subsequent operation, then he had the right to terminate the operation immediately, so Xia Qing must have expected that after they solved Wang Lianba, they would definitely not continue this operation, so Xia Qing would come up with such a way to force them to move on.
Thinking of this, Gao Chao was also puzzled, it seems that Xia Qing's purpose for coming here is not as she said, it is completely for BAAS's research work, she must have some other purpose, so what is the "truth" she wants to explore?
With the continuous sound of drums, the bronze ship has moved away from the shoreline, and when I look back, the pale blue sand is about to disappear from sight.
In front of them, however, there was still an endless blue water, which was completely an underground ocean, and no one could tell how big this underground ocean was, as if it was boundless, as if it was endless.
And Gao Chao and the fat man, but under the threat of Xia Qing, kept beating the bronze drum, and the sound of mechanical operation still came from the hull, but they really couldn't figure out how such a small bronze drum could use the drum to drive such a large bronze ship, it is no exaggeration to say that this can be regarded as a miracle in today's world.
Finally, the bronze ship sailed into the vastness, no matter which direction you looked, you could no longer see any land, surrounded by a thin blue line where the sea and the sky meet, the whole ship seemed to sail in the sky, the blue sky overhead, the stars were constantly twinkling, the sea was faint, but it was as clear as a mirror, reflecting the colors on the top of the cave, everything seemed to be still in a dream, giving people the illusion that time and space seemed to have stopped forever.
However, in such a space, only the sound of drums was still ringing, and there was silence everywhere, as if the sound of the drums had been amplified a lot.
I don't know when it started, although the drum did not stop, but the ship seemed to have stopped, Gao Chao looked at the surrounding water, and couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.
So he looked at Xia Qing, who was sitting on the deck not far away, and found that she was holding the 95 bar and staring blankly at the direction of the stern, not knowing what she was thinking.
However, Xia Qing is still very sensitive, Gao Chao looked at her at the moment, and she suddenly noticed it.
Xia Qing asked lightly, "Old Gao, what's wrong?" ”
Gao Chao sighed and said, "Don't you think this ship has stopped?" ”
"Really?" Xia Qing got up from the deck and walked to the side of the ship.
She poked her head out to look at it, and then said with some confusion: "It seems that it really hasn't moved." (To be continued.) )
