Chapter 84, A Toxin
What the? I was evil, and my head instantly grew big when I heard these words, "No, eight, you're not kidding, are you?" How can a good person fall for evil? "I don't believe Jiao Ba's words, I've only heard of the evil spirit, and I've never seen it.
Jiao Ba looked at me very seriously and said, "Brother Yi, did you encounter anything strange when you went to the sea today?" ”
This time, before I could speak, Li Xin said, "Yes, yes, yes, when we were just about to leave in the cabin, the lights suddenly began to flicker rapidly, and then I vaguely saw some strange images."
"What image?" Jiao Ba hurriedly asked.
"It seems to be a human figure, some figure shuttling back and forth in the cabin." I looked at Jiao Ba and said with a calm face, I remembered the face of the female corpse again, but in front of so many people, I never revealed half a sentence.
Jiao Ba nodded and said, "That's right, what you see is not actually a human figure." ”
"It's not a figure, what could it be? Could it be" Li Xin glared, suddenly looking a little stunned.
"That's right, it's a ghost, that's why I said they were evil." Jiao Ba's words were very casual, but why was I so cautious when I listened to it.
"So what should I do? Mai Lao, what should we do now? "Jenny is a little anxious, it's not a cold and fever, it's a fucking evil.
Mai Lao frowned and said, "Evil? Will there be such a thing? I haven't experienced it, Hachi, since you know that they have fallen into evil, you should have a way, right? The old guy didn't seem to believe Jiao Ba's words, and from his tone, I could hear a hint of mockery.
"Yes, Jiao Ba, you hurry up and find a way to save them, but don't have any more accidents." Jenny was so anxious that she was about to jump up.
Jiao Ba chuckled lightly and said, "Don't you worry, it's not a big deal, there is a way, they are only mild now, and they are not in the way, in this way, Jenny, you go and prepare some red ropes, tie them to their left wrist and left ankle respectively, and then prepare some vinegar to feed them to drink, tomorrow morning, they will be able to wake up." ”
"It's as simple as that?" Jenny said with a question mark on her face.
"It's as simple as that, otherwise what do you think? Go ahead, don't delay. Jiao Ba urged.
Jenny nodded, and hurriedly went to prepare these things, Li Xin squinted her eyes and said, "I can't figure it out?" Even if they are evil, why am I okay? I was there at the time, and he was there. Her last words were about me.
"Yes, old eight, I was there at the time, if it was really evil, why would Li Xin and I be fine?" I also thought about this, the seven of us were in the cabin at the same time, and now except for me and Li Xin, no one else is spared.
Jiao Ba touched his head and said, "How to say this, I can't explain it, to put it simply, everyone's physique is different, and then to use scientific terms, the evil is that the brain waves are interfered with, and the supernatural illusion has no subject, everyone's magnetic field is different, some people will be infected once they come into contact with these things, and some people will not be infected if they touch it a few times." ”
I listened to it a little foggy, what brain waves, and what magnetic fields, messy, to put it bluntly, aren't you scared by the so-called ghosts, "Forget it, I don't understand when I hear you, just say yes." ”
Mai Lao suddenly asked me at this time, "Zhongyi, apart from what Li Xin said, didn't you meet anything else with her in the cabin?" ”
Mai Lao seemed to have something in his words, but it didn't seem to be aimed at me, but more like Li Xin, "No, it's what Li Xin said." "I still haven't planned to tell the story of the female corpse, I'll just find a time to ask Jiao Ba.
At this time, Jenny came back with the things she had prepared, and a few of us began to help Jiao Ba get it together, and after the red rope was tied and the vinegar was fed, Shunzi and several of their sailors were no longer trembling except that their faces were still pale, and it seemed that it was really working, Jiao Ba's grandson, was really unusual.
"It seems to have worked, they don't tremble." Jenny glanced at Jiao Ba happily.
Jiao Ba smiled and said, "Didn't you say it, they'll be fine, they will be able to wake up tomorrow, and then they will rest for two more days, and they will be fine." ”
Mai Lao said at this time, "Okay, since they're fine, Jenny, let's go back too, in the middle of the night, let them have a good rest, Zhongyi, you and Xiao Baduo take care of it, if there is anything, let me know quickly, and cherish this side when you wake up tomorrow, and we will discuss the next step." ”
I nodded and said, "Well, I know, don't worry, Mai Lao, I'll watch them." ”
After they left, my sleepiness was gone, I sat on the bed, took out a cigarette and lit it, smoking hard, I remembered the image of the female corpse in the shipwreck before, what the hell is going on?
Jiao Ba glanced at me and said, "Brother Yi, do you have something to tell me?" ”
"How do you know?" I looked at him and asked very curiously, how did this grandson see it?
Jiao Ba sat next to me and said with a smile, "I can see it from your eyes, when Mai Lao asked you just now, I guessed that you had something to say, but you swallowed it back." ”
I took a puff of my cigarette and squinted my eyes and asked him, "When did you learn to read words?" "I suddenly had a feeling that I had always underestimated Jiao Ba, I thought he was a tomb robber who knew antiques, but today I found out that this kid is more complicated than I thought, judging from the days when he went to sea, he is indeed very unusual.
Jiao Ba put his arm around my shoulders and said, "Isn't this all learned from Brother Yi, didn't you always tell me before, you should observe more and talk less." ”
I knocked him off the arm and said, "You don't talk to me, and you fool me." ”
Jiao Bayi turned straight and asked, "Brother Yi, what do you have to say?" ”
I glanced at him and told me all the things I had done in the wreck cabin in detail, Jiao Ba frowned after hearing this, but he never said a word, "Old Ba, you are talking, why did I see the image of the female corpse, I really don't understand, she should have sunk to the bottom of the sea with the Qing Dynasty shipwreck." ”
Jiao Ba looked at me with a calm face, "Things are a bit weird, listening to you say this, this wreck should not be just a granary ship, there will definitely be something to be found." ”
I was a little anxious and said, "Eighth child, I'm asking you about this female corpse, you say, am I the hell?" Could it be that the soul of the female corpse has been following me? ”
Jiao Ba suddenly smiled and said, "This is just an unnatural phenomenon, and it's not a ghost at all." ”
"Damn, then you just said that it was a ghost, and you said that Junzi is evil." How can this kid speak backwards and forth, one moment saying yes, and the next saying no.
Jiao Ba said very seriously, "Brother Yi, I'll be honest with you, just now it was just Mai Lao and they were here, I just said that Shunzi is evil, in fact, this is not the case at all, the so-called evil is a name that ordinary people don't understand, how can there be so many evils, you should have been disturbed by some kind of toxin in the sunken ship, so you have hallucinations." ”
"You're saying we're all hallucinating? But why did they become like this? "What Jiao Ba said this time made me understand a little bit.
"This is that the individual person is different, and then there is something in you that can make you not disturbed by this toxin, or the degree of interference will be lighter." Jiao Ba said softly.
Something? What could it be? I don't have anything on me, "I don't have anything on me, so even if I'm in better shape, what about Li Xin?" Isn't she okay as a woman? ”
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "You have to ask her about this, why is she okay, maybe only she knows, but I can say for sure that Li Xin's request to go to the sea this time is definitely purposeful." ”
What Jiao Ba said is very right, I also suspect that Li Xin has a purpose in going to sea this time, we have been out to sea for so many days, she has not asked to go to sea once, but this time she strongly asked to go to the sea, since she has already been able to dive, why didn't she say it earlier, besides, she is a bodyguard, why should she dive? And he also carried a diving suit and a shark-proof suit, which seemed to have been premeditated for a long time, could it be said that Li Xin was the mastermind behind all this?
So does the man in black have any connection with her? Then there was the collective disappearance of the bearded man, Li Xin was also at the scene at the time, and when Jiao Ba checked the handwriting of all the staff, only she and Jenny did not have a diary, in Jiao Ba's words, the handwriting of the notes left twice had serious imitation elements, I have never seen Li Xin write any words, is this not deliberately hiding?
From the time we went to sea to now, Li Xin has always been in a cold role, she doesn't get too close to anyone, it should be said that she deliberately alienates us, and today, Li Xin is abnormal, when I went to her for help, she didn't have a word of nonsense, this is indeed a bit unreasonable, but I still have a feeling that things should not be so simple, since she has been hiding for so long, why did she suddenly leak again?
