"What happened to you just now? If you want to commit suicide by jumping into the sea, you don't need to do it at this time! Dong Bing walked over with a gun, a cigarette in his mouth.

I snatched the cigarette from his mouth in shock, took a deep breath, and then said, "There's a fishtail in the sea, don't you see it?" ”

Dong Bing was upset, so I took his cigarette, lit it again, and said, "What do you see?" I saw you almost jump, and if I was too late, or didn't come out, I guess you'd already be soaking in the water waiting for us to retrieve the body. ”

yes, why did I jump into the sea, could it be that kind of poignant and beautiful singing voice just now? Dabao came behind us with the Dingfeng Monkey I don't know when, his face is still very pale, and he probably hasn't recovered yet, he probably heard what I said to Dong Bing just now.

He opened his mouth and said, "Perhaps... Maybe... Could the fishtail that Brother Xia saw be the legendary merman? That is, the mermaid of Western legends? Because the figure I saw on the deck before, actually... In fact, there is only the upper body, will the lower body be underwater? ”

Dong Bing didn't take a breath, he coughed twice because of the smoke, and said: "I said Dabao, the mermaid is in a fairy tale, if you really want to, the third master really wants to catch one and come up to 'study, study'." ”

His word 'research' is extremely obscene, but listening to the tone of his words, you should not believe it.

Dabao hurriedly said: "Don't be in a hurry to deny it, which of those things we have experienced is not legendary, and there is nothing ridiculous about believing in the existence of mermaids." Besides, Brother Xia was so confused that he almost jumped into the sea before, but it wasn't that he couldn't think about it, he must have been confused. I remember that there is a kind of half-human, half-fish siren called the siren, which uses poignant and beautiful singing to lure passing ships past, run aground on the reef, and then eat the crew on it one by one. ”

What Dabao said is not impossible, I remember that I used to spend the books in Weizi's study, and the book of mountains and seas is still kept in Weizi's safe, and I vaguely remember that there is such a thing.

The above "Classic of Mountains and Seas: The South Classic of the Sea" records as follows: "The country of Boxi, the country of Li'er, the country of carving titles, and the country of Beiqu are all in the south of the water." Note: Away from the ear, the mole from its ear is ordered to droop as a decoration, that is, the ear is also, in the Zhuya Haizhu; The carving theme, the face of the Nirvana, the painting body is scaly, that is, the mermaid also. ”

And these places are also marked obviously, which means that the five places in the ocean have countries established by mermaids, and the East China Sea naturally also has them, but one of us lives on land and the other lives in the sea, and we have no intersection at all, let alone familiarity, if this is the case, then it should be a mermaid who lured me off the boat, but judging from their behavior of luring me into the sea, it is definitely not a good intention.

At this time, the ship's mate saw that we were chatting lively, and also came over, and heard that we were in the mermaids, and when they were people who had been drifting on the sea all year round, they naturally had more topics than us.

He said that the East China Sea, like the South China Sea, has many legends of mermaids since ancient times.

The most widely circulated and the most primitive is recorded in the "Taiping Guangji": the mermaid of the sea, there are in the East China Sea, the big one is five or six feet long, like a person, the eyebrows, mouth and nose, hands and claws, and head are all beautiful women, all of which are sufficient. The skin and flesh are as white as jade, scaleless, with fine hairs, light and soft in five colors, and one or two inches long. His hair was like a horsetail, and he was five or six feet long. The yin form is no different from that of a woman, and there are many widows near the sea and are raised in ponds. When intercourse, it is no different from people, and it does not hurt people.

As soon as Dong Bing heard 'skin and flesh are as white as jade', his eyes suddenly lit up, and he rubbed his hands and looked at the sea and said: "Ge Laozi, how can you do it if you don't get one back, since you appear once, you will inevitably come again, and when the time comes, it's fun to get one, I haven't tried a two-legged woman, hehe, this is the first time to have a tail." ”

I covered my forehead and looked at him and said, "You are really hopeless, the 'great health care' has crossed races." If it's not what is written in the book, don't dislike it. ”

Da Baohan said with a smile: "It's not a sentence on the Internet, oh, by the way, the cannon that you called yourself will finish with tears." ”

We stood on the deck and talked for a long time, and the atmosphere was harmonious, at least in this weird atmosphere, everyone was not so frightened, but it was a pity that after sailing for a period of time, there were no more so-called sharks in the East China Sea.

I looked at the time, and found that the watch on my wrist didn't know when it had stopped turning, according to my own feelings, the time had basically passed a few hours, and it stands to reason that the sky should have lit up.

The searchlight on the tower of the ship suddenly lit up, illuminating the deck, and I thought that the seafarers above had found something, but the thick fog was illuminated by the light, revealing a cylindrical thing inside.

When I got closer, it was the cone-shaped reef pillar that I had encountered before, but this time it was closer, and the pointed end was straight up, like a bamboo shoot.

There are dense small holes on it, large and small, and when the sea breeze blows in, you can hear a whining sound, similar to a ghost crying.

The ship's mate leaned on the edge of the guardrail, his eyes observing these things that were abruptly in the fog, and after a while, his face became more and more ugly, and he turned to look at us and said, "How can there be corals on here?" ”

Coral? We all know that corals usually grow in the sea, and it is impossible for them to grow out of the sea, and I also took a closer look with a flashlight to see that there are not only corals on them, but also coral rocks.

The formation of coral rock, I don't need to say, everyone basically knows it, but it is a bit strange that there is such a thing in a reef pillar standing on the sea, could it be that this pillar was actually originally in the sea?

Just when we were puzzled, suddenly, a crew member noticed something was wrong and shouted, "It's moving, it's sinking!" ”

I quickly leaned down on the side of the boat and looked down, and through the little bit of water that I could see, I could see that the bamboo shoot-shaped reef was slowly sinking underneath, and there was no sound at all.

No wonder the one we saw before disappeared inexplicably, it turned out to be like this.

But what is this thing in front of you?

Before I could figure it out, Dabao shook and shouted, "Everyone, turn off all the light sources, turn them off." ”

Seeing that he was so anxious, he must have guessed what it was, and it must be dangerous. So I hurriedly asked others to do the same, and even in the end, even the motor was reduced to a minimum, trying not to make too much noise.

I asked him in a low voice, "What the hell do you think?" ”

Dabao's teeth seemed to be fighting, and he trembled and said, "Brother Xia, there may be something particularly big under our ship, or under the sea area where we have been sailing. Those columnar things that pop out of the water are not reefs at all, they should be... Its... The tentacles....look at the hole in there, like... Not like an octopus's suckers? ”

As his words came out of my mind, I made up a terrifying image of our ship floating alone on the vast sea, and beneath the depths of the sea, an unknown giant creature lurked there, perhaps resting, or watching us.

And those tentacles that occasionally burrow out of the sea, the holes in them may only be used for breathing.

Thinking of this, not only me, but other people may have also made up this picture, their faces turned blue, and they didn't even dare to breathe, as if they were afraid of disturbing the huge monster below the deep sea.

The ship sailed slowly, and from time to time we saw something coming out of the sea, and we didn't have the courage to get close to it.
