The crocodile's head was dragged above the deck by us, but the body was still hanging on the hull and rolling hard, Lu Dachuan said I will look at your little breath, and then let me and the long-legged two pull the rope, and let Lin Xian'er bring the largest model of steel drill we carried, and then climbed to the railing and smashed the crocodile's head with the steel drill, smashed it twenty or thirty times, and the crocodile stopped making a "purring" sound and stopped struggling,

After the three of us dragged the dead crocodile to the deck, I was so surprised that my eyes fell out when I saw its two-meter-and-a-half-meter-long body.

Lu Dachuan took a breath, circled around the crocodile, and said with satisfaction: "Good luck, we caught a small one, if it is a big predator that bites the hook, it will not be so easy for us to change the taste." ”

"Holy shit, it's still small." I'm really sick,

Lu Dachuan shook the crocodile with his feet and said: "It seems that this is an African Nile crocodile, the largest can grow to eight meters, and the one with more than two meters is of course small." ”

"Wait, wait, crabs in the Pacific, crocodiles in Africa, ghost ships around the world, why is this river so messy."

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago, this dark river is likely to run through the entire 30th parallel north latitude."

Lu Dachuan has long had such a prediction, but I really can't imagine what the concept of a dark river crossing an entire dimensional line is, and even if this dark river can lead to Africa, is it normal for African crocodiles to appear here, and how do they adapt to different environments?

Lu Dachuan saw that I bowed my head and said silently: "Don't bother thinking about it, I will clean up this fish for you, you kid set up the firewood, boil a pot of hot water, and then wait for the meal to start." ”

Listening to Lu Dachuan say this, I naturally have no opinion, temporarily put aside the messy troubles, turned his head and went to hold firewood to make a fire, Lu Dachuan pulled out a knife and began to kill fish, Long Legs hurriedly gave him a hand, Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er didn't want to see this bloody scene, so they hid in the tent early,

After ten minutes, I boiled the water, and Lu Dachuan also dismembered the crocodile's tail, head, and limbs, scalded it with boiling water, peeled it off, washed it, and roasted it on the fire......

To be honest, crocodile skin is indeed a good thing, but the meat is really not as delicious as imagined, but for us who lack food and clothing, it is indeed a beautiful improvement in life.

In the time that followed, the giant ship sailed without hesitation towards a destination we didn't know (maybe there was no destination at all, the ghost ship itself existed to sail non-stop,), and the shadows in the cabin still existed, but we took enough firewood to burn for a month at a time, and they didn't bother us, and we didn't have to worry about entering the boat room as if it didn't exist, and we could always catch fish in the river, although we were really tired of eating, but we didn't have to go hungry,

In the beginning, when we were bored, we climbed to the top deck and used searchlights to look around for land, but after many times, the land was always gone, and we couldn't bear the loss and blows again and again, so we no longer bothered ourselves.

In short, life passed smoothly and unbearable, just when everyone thought that they would die on the ship like this, things finally took a turn for the better.

At this time, it was probably the night of the third day after the huge ship came out of the crater, and we were all lying in the tent and ready to sleep, when suddenly a light outside reflected the tent brightly, because although the searchlight on the ship was strong, it was not facing the deck, so as soon as we saw the light outside, we thought that the pyre was on fire, and we rushed out of our sleeping bags in a panic.

After running out, I saw that the pyre was not on fire, and the tent was lit up by a red light from the rising sun in the distance, and the real joy of seeing the light of day arose spontaneously, and we hugged each other excitedly and screamed and jumped, and before we knew it, we were already in tears.

After a long while, we calmed down, standing on the bow of the ship in the smoky breeze and looking at the bright sky, as the ship advanced, we slowly walked out of the darkness, the light in front of us gradually became as bright as a clear day, and the temperature around us also rose significantly, and after a while, I was sweating all over, and I felt that I couldn't stand the heat, and I couldn't help but scold: "Why is this ghost day so hot." ”

Lu Dachuan They also said that they were dead of heat, Liu Chang's legs writhed like a big caterpillar and scratched this and that, and his mouth shouted that it was itchy to death, let us help him scratch, we knew that he was a sweat sting and there was no good scar on his body, so no one paid attention to him,

I took off my coat, wiped a handful of sweat down my neck like a stream, looked up and looked around looking for the sun in the sky, only to find that the light we saw was not the fucking sky at all, but on the top of the cave, which was a little weirdly high, a large red piece of something that I didn't know what it was.

"What's that?" I asked Lu Dachuan, who was looking around with a telescope,

He replied to me without asking, "I see land, a big piece with mountains and trees. ”

We were so excited that we jumped up for joy, and as soon as I was happy, I forgot what the glowing thing above my head was, and snatched the telescope in Lu Dachuan's hand to see the land that could actually see the horizon with the naked eye.

With the land as a reference, I feel more and more that the speed of the giant ship is sailing, and in five or six minutes at most, a large stretch of sand, the dense forest behind the beach, and the mountains covered with vegetation that need to be seen clearly by telescopes have clearly displayed in front of us.

However, the clearer we can see, the cooler our hearts become, because there is no blue sky and white clouds in the sky over the land surrounded by rivers......

In other words, we are happy in vain, the dark river is still a fucking dark river, but the land is not a fucking real land,

So what is it that illuminates all this?

Then I remembered the red light on the roof of the cave I had just seen, and when I turned around, the roof of the cave was far away from us, but the clearer I could see, the boundary between the things that glowed red was almost non-existent, and when it was connected into a whole, it looked like the sun had been smashed several times, and the sky was full of debris waterfall from the sky.

"Oh my God, what's that?" I said again,

"Molten rock."

He squeezed out two words from between his teeth, almost scaring me to pee: "Then we ...... just now"

Lu Dachuan let out a long breath: "Yes." ”

"It's a miracle that it doesn't erupt like that." I stared blankly at the red half of the air, shocked and afraid.

Lu Dachuan said: "It is estimated that it has something to do with that mysterious gravitational pull. ”

Hearing Lu Dachuan say that the thing that emitted red light from the roof of the cave we just passed by was lava, Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er also turned around and looked at the red light in the air in horror, Liu Changjiao stopped twisting his body, swallowed his saliva and shouted: "Kao fuck, if it erupts, we won't be roast suckling pigs." ”

I looked at his long legs like two cranes: "You really know how to lift yourself, just your ribs and roast suckling pig." ”

"Damn, this is also next to you, I'm ribs, you're roasting suckling pig."

Liu Changleg said that we all laughed,

At this time, the steamer was not far from the river bank, and there was no intention of changing course to maintain its speed, and we were counting on it to rush to the beach in one go, and we didn't want to drop anchor more than ten meters away from the beach.

Lu Dachuan quickly packed up his equipment and got off the boat to take a look, this time no one objected again, and he packed up one faster than the other, because the damn ghost ship dared to go anywhere, it was really scary,

After we got off the big boat, two women sat in the middle of the boat, and the three of us rowed hard to paddle hard in front of the two backs, and the boat that Lu Dachuan had already selected was put on the river, after we got off the big boat, two women sat in the middle of the boat, and the three of us men rowed hard one in front of the other and two behind, and the boat sailed towards the beach in the wind and waves.

A total of more than ten meters of distance, we held back on the big boat for so many days to have no strength, when swinging the oars have some venting meaning, every time to exert all their strength, a few times the boat went out seven or eight meters, and a few times, sitting on the bow left and right Lu Dachuan turned his head to let me and the long legs two don't row, he was afraid that we would go down in one breath, the boat hit the beach and fell apart,

From the time I got into the boat, I buried my head in paddling hard, and I didn't pay much attention to the surface of the river, and now that Lu Dachuan had stopped, I stood up and looked around, and the huge ship we had left behind me was quietly moored on the surface of the river as if it were asleep, swaying slightly with the waves; The river on the left and right sides is wide and boundless, and I can't help but curse again: How the fuck is this river, it's clearly the sea,

Liu Changleg said: "Don't sigh, go into the water and drag the boat to the shore." ”

I held on to the side of the boat and had not yet stepped into the water, and suddenly I saw a shadow in the water behind the boat swaying left and right, and hurriedly let Long Legs look, Long Legs looked back and shouted: "Mom, run, it's a crocodile." ”

Suddenly, we didn't care about asking for a boat, Lu Dachuan, who was already standing on the beach, dragged Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er who were still sitting on the boat one by one, and I and Liu Changleg ran two steps and jumped to them, one left and one right set up Lu Keqin and Lin Xian'er and ran, at the same time, we heard a very violent sound of water waves and the sound of things breaking behind us,

I hurriedly looked behind me and saw a six- or seven-meter-long predator falling back into the water with its mouth open, and our boat was already a pile of debris.
