Chapter 53: Screaming
At this moment, I suddenly remembered, "I said eight, several of us are controlled by this force, but why are you okay?" ”
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "Since we entered the cabin, I have said that the yin qi here is very strong, and I have always been prepared, when you have a quarrel, in fact, I have already felt the existence of that power, don't you see that I have not spoken all the time, I am also enduring it, if I interject, the anger will rise infinitely, and I can't hold it back when the time comes." ”
"Damn, then since you already knew, why didn't you explain it in the end, and you still made everyone fall apart." I stared at him with a glare, and suddenly felt a little angry.
Li Xin hurriedly held me down and said, "Loyalty, calm and calm, don't be angry, you must control your emotions." ”
"Yes, yes, I was a little rushed to speak just now, I have to be calm, I have to be calm." This so-called hatred force has made me almost mentally ill, and I have to remind myself all the time not to be angry.
Jiao Ba sighed and said, "If you don't let you separate now, you will be very dangerous, after separation, the hatred in my heart will go down, and it will be alleviated, in fact, I was also very worried at the time, if I really can't persuade you, I can't do anything at all." ”
"So what now? What if something happens to them? "The three of us are okay to say, but Shaoyu and Shunzi are really going to encounter any trouble, I'm afraid it will be a problem for them to protect themselves.
"Let's go to them after a while, it's not the time yet, the power of the magic circle is very strong, you'd better not meet yet, let's check this layer first, and then go up to them after that, everyone is on the same ship, you are afraid that they will not be lost." Jiao Ba said.
Since he said so, he had to listen to him, and if he dared to go up to them, I was afraid that as soon as we met, we would have to fight again, but what I don't understand is why the four of us are divided into two opposing forms, instead of fighting separately? If the forces of hatred had taken control of us, I would have hated everyone present.
Jiao Ba explained to me at the time, he said that this is also driven by the power of the magic circle, if this person does not have a little complaint in my heart, then I can't hate this person in my heart at all, to put it bluntly, everything has a source, which is the underlying problem in our hearts.
I have some dissatisfaction with Shaoyu's previous attitude, the two of us have had a few small frictions, and there is also some unhappiness with the concealment of Junzi, his life experience and what he has done before, he doesn't mention a word to me, I will have some unhappiness in my heart, so from these unhappiness, quickly began to change, under the control of the power of hatred, they became unforgivable enemies in my eyes.
It can be seen that Junzi and Shaoyu are also somewhat dissatisfied with me, so that this evil force can take advantage of it, and by being dissatisfied with me, they expand their state of mind, and sometimes they burst out of anger, and then gradually turn from anger to hatred, which becomes more and more serious, and finally it is out of control.
The power of this magic circle is really terrifying, we can't see it, we can't touch it, but it is in every corner of this ancient ship, and we must always be on guard, otherwise, it is easy to accidentally land its way.
After all these things were said, the three of us began to check the cabin here, Junko and Shaoyu should still be on the upper floor, I hope they are both safe, the three of us decided that after we have checked this place, we will go back to find them.
Ancient ships are very different from modern ships, and most of the cabins are different in size and carrying, and we go from the starting point and along the aisle all the way to the innermost, such a long corridor, but there are only two hatches.
There is one on the left and one on the left, both of which are at the staircase where we came down before, which is very weird, normally speaking, the cabins on both sides add up, at least there must be at least a dozen, but now there are only two, and the rest of the place is wooden walls, although the ice is thicker, but it is still easy to distinguish the hatch, at first I also suspected that it was too much ice, and the hatch was blocked, and it was only after we carefully checked that we found that there was no hatch at all.
We had to go back to the stairs from the innermost part, "Strange, why are there only two hatches here, isn't that right?" I muttered softly.
"Well, I feel very strange, only there are two hatches at the staircase, and there is nothing in the aisle further on, the architecture of this ancient ship is not the same as the Ming Dynasty shipwreck we came into contact with before." Li Xin turned on the flashlight and said while observing.
Jiao Ba stopped at this time and said, "Don't make a fuss, there are many kinds of ships in the Ming Dynasty, there are many architectural styles, when Zheng He went to sea alone, there were a large number of different ships, and the Ming Dynasty shipwreck we encountered before was just a granary ship, the main ship and the treasure ship, including these six ancient ships, must be different." ”
"But have you ever seen anything like this? In the huge aisle, there are only these two hatches? I asked, turning my head to look at him.
Jiao Bazhi said hesitantly, "This please, Brother Yi, I am also the same as you, I only came into contact with this kind of ancient ship after going to sea, I just know some general things, let's go, let's open the hatch and see." ”
But when we just got back to the staircase, all of a sudden, there was a scream of extreme horror from upstairs, as if it had been caused by the great fright of human beings, and I was so frightened that it was very short, and it disappeared in two seconds at most.
After the voice disappeared, the three of us paused for a moment and looked at each other, "Oh no, it must be the two of them, hurry up and take a look." I ran up the stairs, and Jiao Ba and Li Xin hurriedly followed.
There were only five of us in this, and that scream, although I didn't hear whose voice it was, it must have been one of the two of them, and it was only a few minutes, could something have happened so soon? It seems that this ancient ship is even more terrifying than the ice city.
But when I ran up, I found that the whole aisle was quiet, there was not even a single figure, the three of us turned on the flashlight, all the way from the end to the front hatch, but still did not find the two of them, not even a ghost, and there was no trace on the ground.
But all the hatches on both sides were closed, and the aisle was also as quiet as death, without any sound, as if the scream just now had not appeared at all, everything here seemed too calm, calm and heartwarming, "What about people?" I remember that the source of the sound is right above our heads? "The scream just now was above us, and it stands to reason that it should be at the top of the stairs.
"I feel like too, they're not going to run off the boat, are they?" Li Xin asked casually.
I shook my head and said, "Impossible, Junko and Shaoyu will never leave the ancient ship like this." ”
"Don't put it together, let's split up and search all the cabins on this floor first, and if we can't find them again, we'll get off the ship." Jiao Ba's eyes were grim, and it seemed that he already had a number in his heart.
"Can they be in this cabin? If the hatch had been opened, it shouldn't have been closed? ”
We have always opened the hatch and did not close, no matter which ship was searched, this is for the sake of safety, this ghost place is evil, who will be idle and have nothing to do to enter the cabin and then close the hatch, if this is in danger, it is too late to run.
"You're right, but maybe the two of them closed the hatch? In the shipwreck, haven't we also encountered this situation, we don't know how powerful this ancient ship is. Jiao Ba said with squinted eyes.
"You're right, I'm in a hurry, my mind is not clear, let's go, hurry up and find them." The disappearance of Junzi and Shaoyu undoubtedly brought me psychological pressure, it was only a few minutes after I came up, and something happened, I really don't know what will happen next.
Originally, we shouldn't have acted separately, which was a certain threat to our safety, but in order to find them as soon as possible, we had to do this, but Li Xin couldn't act alone, she was a woman after all, and she had to be taken care of by someone.
I asked Jiao Ba to take Li Xin to act together, and I searched alone, the two of them can take care of each other, and they can shout in time when they are in danger, although my safety alone has been reduced, but my self-protection ability is still enough.
Li Xin took one last look at me and said, "Zhongyi, you have to be careful." ”
I nodded to her, and then Jiao Ba took her and began to search the last cabin on the left, and I watched as they opened the hatch and then walked into the cabin before I started to leave.
I started the search from the last cabin on the right, and we could just look all the way forward, and the distance between each other was not very far, and the hatch door was facing each other, and even if there was any danger, as long as I shouted, the people on the other side could basically hear it.
This is also what we have discussed before, in this environment, even if it is to save people, we must first protect ourselves, so every step of the way, we have to discuss a good countermeasure, the number of people is small, if something happens again, don't expect to get out of here alive.
The hatch was very frozen, I stuck the hatch with a diving knife, and pried it out hard, only then did I pry the hatch open a thin slit, and then I grabbed the hatch with both hands, and pulled it back a little bit by brute force, and after the sound of continuous 'Kakaka', the hatch was only half opened by me.
I was tired at the time, Jiao Ba and Li Xin were more lucky, the opposite hatch opened as soon as it was pulled, but I broke the hatch, and it took me half of it to open it for a long time, my first feeling was that Shunzi and Shaoyu would definitely not be here, this hatch was too frozen, even if it was closed again, it could not be like this.
