CHAPTER XXXIX

The ship was so quiet that there seemed to be no one, which reminded me of the ghost ship's saying, and I said, "Could it be that we have met a ghost ship on the sea?"

Most people know about UFOs, or unidentified flying objects, but few people know about USO, and the so-called USO refers to unidentified flying objects at sea, which is commonly known as ghost ships. They are usually mostly missing or long-sunk ships, and suddenly reappear on the sea, empty and floating on their own, as if an invisible ghost were manipulating.

USO is also very rare like UFOs, but in recent years, some literary works like to make a big fuss, so many people know about ghost ships. We were stranded on the reef, and we were naturally overjoyed at the first sight of the boat, but when the ship arrived, we felt that everything was strange. First of all, the material and hull structure of the ship are not like modern ships, and secondly, there is only a lone lamp on the ship, and in the dark sea, it is just like a ghost fire, so silently approaching us, and not hearing a little movement of living people, it is inevitable that people will not be reminded of some strange and strange legends.

Just as I was thinking of the USO because of the silence of the ship, a spiral ladder of ropes and sticks was thrown down from the wooden edge of the boat, and it was obvious that there was someone on board, and it was waiting for us to go up.

Tofu was overjoyed, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to climb up, but I quickly stopped him and said, "Be careful." Then he rushed to the boat and shouted, "Where did you come from?" After asking, a person's upper body leaned out of the boat, a foreigner with very white skin, and said in Chinese with a strange tone: "Come up first." ”

As soon as this person appeared, the previous speculation of the ghost ship was naturally shattered, I breathed a sigh of relief, Tofu teased me for having a bit of a cup bow snake shadow, and immediately carried a bag of equipment and began to climb, and everyone also rushed up, and the humpback whale seemed to be happy for us, swimming around the boat, jumping up from time to time.

We got on the boat, but found that the person we were talking to just now was gone, and this scene made me have a very bad association, and I immediately remembered what happened in Yinyang Liubu Village. Obviously, Tofu and Gu Wenmin, who experienced that incident, were obviously also reminded of some bad memories by this similar scene.

Tofu was laughing at me just now, but his face changed a little at this time, and he shouted on the boat: "What about people? Come out, don't pretend to be a fool. "The only thing that answered us was the sound of the waves and the sea breeze.

Gu Wenmin is essentially a materialistic person, seeing that my face and Tofu are not very good, he reluctantly smiled and comforted: "Don't think too much, how can you always run into something unclean, maybe we are too careful." "I have a weak heart when she said this, normal people really don't always encounter these things, but I happen to not be a normal person, under the curse of the ghost's face, I seem to have become a zongzi physique. Where there are corpses, hard zongzi will inevitably be encountered, and where there are no corpses, soft zongzi will inevitably be encountered.

Gu Wenmin and Tofu were comforting themselves there, and the rest of the people also saw that something was wrong.

The four of them were very alert, they took out their weapons, they didn't speak to each other, a set of gestures, a few glances, and quickly dispersed, it was obvious that they were going to touch this strange ship. The boat was much larger than our previous fishing boat, with one floor underneath and two more floors, and a mast at the back with sails hanging from it, but the sails were now stowed away.

Due to the large size of the ship, it took a lot of effort to search for the four of them, and in the meantime, I found that our ship was still moving, but not very fast, the reef where it had been located had gradually moved away, and the ship was from north to south, not the way back at all, but generally the same course as our previous course.

If there is no one on board, how can the ship move? Is this really a USO? Thinking about this, my mind has calmed down, after more than a month, my ability to adapt to these bizarre things is much stronger, even if it is really USO, I am not afraid of it. As I thought about it, I began to think of various possibilities and ways to deal with them.

Professor Lin clapped his fist and said, "Oh, we were all carried away by joy just now, this boat is not right, we shouldn't have come up." ”

Wu Sidong said: "I also felt that this ship was a little ...... just now There was some ghostly spirit, and I didn't plan to go up, but the foreigner suddenly lowered the hanging ladder and dispelled my worries. ”

Tofu and I glanced at each other, in fact, not only Wu Sidong, when the ship stopped in front of us, I think as long as we weren't stupid, we should be able to detect the problem, if it wasn't for the foreigner who suddenly appeared, we wouldn't have gotten on the boat lightly. At this time, we can only wait for the news of the four people, if there is really a problem with this ship, we must jump into the sea without hesitation and return to the reef.

In about ten minutes, the four people gathered at the bow of the ship, and there was a rare nervousness with a cold expression, and this time the fourth person was the first to speak: "There is no one." He added: "Not even the dead bodies." There was also no food and water on board. ”

"Obviously, we met the USO. ”

Ji Qì person No. 2 said: "I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out this time. ”

Ji Qì person No. 3 said: "Among us, there must be someone who has gone out of bad luck. I choked a little, and said in my heart: I really let him be right.

When Professor Lin heard this, he frowned, waved his hand decisively, and sighed, "Jump ship." "Everyone has been mentally prepared, and while there has been no change in this ghost ship, it is better to quickly slip away. Everyone immediately reached the edge of the boat, took a deep breath, and jumped into the black hole in the sea as soon as their bodies flipped over. At this time, the boat is not far, about 20 minutes to swim, you can swim back to the previous reef.

Who knew that when I jumped, I was not greeted by the cold water, but with a bang, and my whole body fell on a hard thing, and I grinned in pain. Before I could scream, there was a thud in my ears, followed by a grunt, and when I opened my eyes, everyone was lying on the deck in a fallen position.

I really remember that I was jumping into the sea, and my body was in the air, how could I fall on the boat? I suddenly chuckled in my heart, and hurriedly got up, ignoring Professor Lin and them, without saying a word, I turned over again, supported the edge of the boat with my arms, and jumped into the air.

This time, I deliberately opened my eyes and didn't close them, seeing my body fall into the sea, and at the moment when I was about to enter the water, the sea water below suddenly swung and turned into a wooden deck, and there was also a crooked and twisted Professor Lin and his party on the deck, covering their buttocks and holding their heads.

They were obviously attracted by my quick reflexes, and at this moment their eyes were still looking in the direction I jumped out, and the next moment, my body fell to the deck and appeared in front of Professor Lin and the others. Everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes surveyed each other, their faces were different, not to mention how weird their expressions were. I noticed that almost everyone had a layer of sweat on their foreheads, and the situation in front of me was self-evident, this was a USO, and it was a USO that could not be jumped out.

I remembered the white man who was lying on the edge of the boat and put a soft ladder for us, and I couldn't help but burst into a foul language in my heart, and now I think about it, that person's face was white and weird, and he didn't look like a normal person at all. We were all cautious and alert people, how could we be so impulsive to climb onto the boat at that time? I think it's been a few days when we've been stuck on the reef, and we've been really scared.

A-Ying was even more scared, hugged her legs, shrunk her neck, looked around nervously, and asked me, "Brother Chen, you have the most ideas...... You say, what are we going to do? That one...... Will that white-faced ghost hide somewhere watching us, waiting to harm us? It's scary to think about. ”

Gu Wenmin happened to be next to A-Ying, and patted A-Ying's shoulder to appease, relatively speaking, Gu Da Meinu, as a police officer, often comes into contact with some environments that ordinary people can't touch, and she is more bold, she comforted A-Ying while saying: "We were too impulsive before, and it's useless to regret it now." You say, what should I do if I get into the USO? ”

Tofu is estimated to have been unpleasant during this time, holding back the fire in his belly, and then he exploded and scolded angrily: "I'm afraid of a ball!" Grandpa Dou almost kissed Zongzi in the corpse pit, and I really think I am a soft persimmon, Lao Tzu still doesn't believe in this evil today! Then he said to me, "; Lao Chen, please incense. ”

I'm not a timid person, tofu is angry, I don't bother to look ahead, my heart said what it is, if it's a hard zongzi, tangible and qualitative, come one by one, if it's a soft zongzi, I also have to find a way to peel off a layer of skin. Thinking of this, I immediately went through the equipment bag to find incense.

Although our equipment was prepared by Professor Lin, most of the equipment he brought was regular inverted bucket equipment, and some out-of-the-way equipment, such as incense candles and glutinous rice, would not be prepared. There are a lot of strange things that have been handed down from the inverted bucket, such as glutinous rice can pull out corpse poison and sprinkle ghosts and the like, we didn't believe in evil when we fought the first two times, so these partial things were not prepared, since they suffered a loss in the tomb of the ghost king Yulong, this time they were entrusted by Professor Lin, and they brought some partial objects.

Tofu said this, I took action, and seeing that Tofu and I seemed to have an idea, the rest of the people couldn't help but be curious.

The carp asked the tofu, "What is please incense?" ”

Tofu was watched by so many people with curious eyes, and suddenly felt good, and the anger also went down, and he explained triumphantly, blowing the function of inviting incense. As they spoke, I took out a candle and lit it. When everyone heard Tofu say the way of the ghost's breath, they all stared at the candle intently, but for a moment, they saw that the flame of the candle was still there, neither green nor smaller.

Duan Fei couldn't help but be suspicious and said, "Don't fool people, what the hell is panting." Professor Lin frowned slightly and said, "No, it's true that ghosts are panting, I witnessed it once when I followed Teacher Chen before. Could it be that we are not in the ancient tomb, so there is no change? ”

Tofu couldn't figure it out, so he grabbed his head and muttered: "Could it be that this zongzi is only panting in the tomb?" It's weird. ”
