Chapter Twenty-Four: Haikui (II)
Chapter 299: Haikui (II)
I was shocked, and I thought to myself, couldn't the three of them not resist, such a big movement, could it be that they were gnawed by Haikui? Immediately, I didn't care about arguing with the fat man, so I immediately rushed up, stepped on the wooden stairs, and rushed to the command room.
I don't know when, the sea has blown a strong wind, in the darkness, the lights of the ship in the tumbling water, appear hazy and obscure, the tumbling sea water is dark for a while, and then like snow waves, sometimes high and sometimes low, the ship is constantly shaking, as if about to capsize.
A large wooden box fell on the deck, which was a spare equipment equipped on the ship, which was generally placed on the top of the command room and tied with ropes.
Most of the bodies of those Haikui had already climbed into the boat, and a few people rushed up with iron rods, and the thing immediately shrank and shrank under the edge of the boat. And at this moment, because the hull of the ship was shaken by the impact of the wind and waves, the three of them were even more unstable, not to mention hitting Haikui, it was difficult to even fix their figures.
I immediately cried out, "Come back, fellow son." Then I raised my gun and fired a shot at one of the Kui who had already climbed onto the boat, and with a bang, a string of red blood burst out of the Kui.
The smell of blood stimulated the other kwiel, and the remaining kyu let out a loud snoring sound, and then nearly doubled their speed, and slammed up to the deck, reaching into four feet in a moment.
At the same time, the fat man also fired, if my marksmanship is unsatisfactory, then his marksmanship is a hundred steps through the Yang, I only heard two consecutive gunshots in my ears, the nearest two Haikui, was shot in the head at the same time. Of the six fierce and vicious Haikui, only three slightly smaller ones were left in the blink of an eye.
The three of them had already taken advantage of this moment to quickly retreat to the command room where we were, and the other three Haikui, as if they knew the power of the guns in our hands, climbed up at a very fast speed as if they were human, and it was a very unstable route.
The fat man and I fired several shots in a row, but we missed a single shot.
Tongzi gasped and said, "Quick, close the doors and windows." ”
The fat man saw that he couldn't hit Haikui, and scolded his mother. Immediately gave up the idea of continuing to shoot, and shouted: "Don't let these things in!" "Fortunately, these guys picked by the dumb sister, although they are chicks who have never been fighting, they are all very excited, and the fat man's voice has just fallen, and he has already done his own thing, and quickly closed the doors and windows of the command room.
The remaining three Quires were blocked out by the doors and windows.
After a while, they climbed up to the window, their bellies and flat heads pressed against the window, and on the transparent glass, they were drenched with water, their heads moved, their mouths were purring louder and louder, and their bodies kept changing directions, as if they were looking for somewhere to get in.
The fat man laughed cruelly and said: "This is sent to the door by himself, innocent comrade, the fat man will not rob you, the live target will be given to you, and you can practice marksmanship well." "The mustache said that according to coastal legends, it would be bad luck to kill the Haikui, but we had already killed three, not a few more, and immediately I held up my gun and fired directly at the shadow of the glass.
"Bang...... Trumpet! The glass in the command room shattered, and at the same time, a bullet entered Kui's stomach.
I didn't stop, I didn't look at the sea kui that I had hit, I raised my hand and aimed at the second, followed by the third, and in an instant, the boat was quiet, and at this moment, the drifting rain fell from the sky.
I gasped and looked out through the hole in the glass, the deck was covered with dark red bloodstains, washed by the rain, gradually flowing along the edge of the ship to the sea, the dark sea rolled under the lamp, in the white snow waves, as if some monster would emerge at any moment, my ears were full of the sound of the waves of the sea and the sound of thunderstorms.
The two men at the helm, with a palpitating look, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and one of the guys with a big mole on his face looked at me and said, "What kind of thing is that, the bite force of the mouth is about to catch up with the crocodile, if this is bitten........." He didn't say anything later, but we both understood.
The mustache explained Haikui's matter to the three of them, then looked at me and said, "Master, these things are probably attracted by the fish that the fat master shot before." "I flashed my flashlight and shone the corpses of the Qui on the deck, and found that none of them were the ones that had been hit by the fat man.
When the gray mouse saw it, he guessed: "I don't know how many more of these Haikui are there, Angkor, do you think it will bring other Haikui over?" ”
I shook my head, and said in my heart that this was not accurate, and I was not Haikui, how did I know? But at the moment, I am not only the horn clip, but also the horn head, or the head of the handicap, and the group of people on the boat, except for the fat man, all put the backbone on me, I naturally have to take responsibility, and there can be no sloppiness.
"I don't know." I thought about it for a while, and said to a few people: "Since that thing can lure the same kind of people over, it is estimated that it has already returned to the sea, I don't know if there is anything hidden on this ship, go and rest with the three of you, don't sleep with the others, get up and abstain." Then, I pointed to the mustache and said, "You are at the helm, now the wind and waves are strong, don't rush the schedule, safety first." "Although I can't wait to fly to that sea bucket immediately, but everyone understands the truth that I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, now such a big storm, if I blindly rush the progress, I'm afraid that something will happen, now I am not alone, I must be responsible for everyone's lives.
The mustache nodded, and sat in the captain's room to steer, just in case, I asked the same son and a few people to lay directly on the ground in the command room, first, the place is open, it is not easy to hide things, and secondly, it is closest to the deck, and if there is a situation, it can also react as quickly as possible.
The rest is me and the fat man and the gray mouse, the fat man analyzed, everything on this ship can have problems, only this ship can not have problems, this is the most basic guarantee for all of us, just in case, he patted the gray mouse, led people to search the lounge and cabin from the new, I took off my coat and pants, put on a raincoat, and threw the broken glass on the deck and the body of the sea into the sea.
Who knew that when I threw the corpse, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, at this moment the heavy rain was pouring down, although the light of the ship lamp was obscure, but the scene around the hull was also blurry and changeable, directly in the water under the boat, it seemed that something was swimming around, that thing was not deep, although the specific appearance could not be seen clearly, but the outline could be vaguely seen, there were four legs.
I was startled for a moment, turned around and yelled at the mustache in the captain's room, "And Haikui is following, increase the horsepower, and get rid of these things first." ”
The mustache was in the captain's room, making an OK gesture at me.
I lay on the edge of the boat in the rain, holding a dagger in my hand, staring at the black shadows that kept swimming under the sea, those things sometimes hide their heads and tails, sometimes deep and sometimes shallow, come and go, the number is difficult to count, when there are many, as if the whole ship is underneath, and when there are few, it seems that there are only one or two, I have a faint feeling of uneasiness in my heart, these things are not only as famous as sea monkeys, but the most terrible thing is that their vindictiveness is probably not inferior to that of sea monkeys.
These things are lingering, are they still preparing for a raid?
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the sea is tumbling very hard, it is the winter of November, I am wearing a thin raincoat lying on the edge of the boat, it doesn't take long to feel shivering, the skin and flesh are frozen and painful, at this moment, someone patted me on the shoulder, I thought it was a fat man, but turned around to see that it was the same son, he also wore a raincoat, stretched out his hand to signal the direction of the command room, and said: "Master, I'll come to the top for a while." ”
I was stunned, frowned, and said, "Why don't you sleep yet?" ”
Tongzi looked a little helpless and said, "At this moment, how can you sleep." ”
"If you can't sleep, you have to sleep, cultivate and recuperate, and work shifts tomorrow." I snorted and motioned for him to go back, for the situation at sea is unknown, and in order to ensure safety, we must take turns to ensure that there are people on board at all times.
Tongzi shook his head and said, "If you don't get rid of these things, I won't be able to sleep." "I can't help but want to scold my mother, but I also know that he is a good heart, this person's personality is very similar to Panzi, I suddenly remembered something, I heard the dumb sister say, Tongzi did not follow her, has been doing other things for seven or eight years, and Panzi often attended various occasions with the third uncle, I think Tongzi should be no stranger to Panzi.
For some reason, I suddenly had an idea, what kind of existence do those who have died exist in the eyes of others?
So I asked Tongzi, "Do you know Panzi?" ”
He was stunned, nodded, and said, "Yes." Pan Yeyi is thin and cloudy, and I have always respected him. ”
I was satisfied with his answer, and a sense of pride arose.
I asked, "What kind of person do you think he is?" Tongzi frowned and thought for a while, as if thinking about how to reply, and after a while, he said, "It should be an extraordinary ordinary person." He smiled and said, "Master, I don't have much culture, I don't know how to describe it, but Pan Ye, in the eyes of the brothers, is more fierce, no one dares to provoke him, if you want to use any comparison, I think he is like ......"
I was listening with interest, but before I could finish my son's words, our boat suddenly jammed violently, as if the car had come to a sudden brake.
Tongzi's voice suddenly stopped.
I felt a chuckle in my heart, knowing that something was wrong.
This kind of stuck machine, once out of the new ship run-in, out twice out of a coincidence, but three times in a row, it is a little abnormal. Either there was a problem with the ship in the first place, or something went wrong later.
I no longer paid attention to the black shadow swimming in the sea, made a gesture to my son to follow, immediately turned around to the command room, and ordered the mustache next to me without looking back: "I'll go down and take a look, you continue." ”
Immediately afterwards, I walked down the stairs to the cabin, and after only a few steps, I saw two figures, one fat and one thin, running up, and I hurriedly said, "Fatty, what's going on down there." ”
The fat man scurried out, and his figure gradually became clearer, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because the fat man was soaking wet.
It's me who gets drenched in the rain, why is he getting wet too?
The fat man's face was ugly, he pulled my hand and said, "Quick, prepare to abandon ship." ”
Abandon ship? I said, "What about this ship of more than 400,000?" It's a waste to abandon ship now. ”
The fat man kicked me directly, with a raped expression on his face, and scolded: "Don't nonsense, this boat has been bitten by Haikui with a big hole, the water has gone up to the instep, and there are several swimming championships in it, if we don't leave, we will all become sea ghosts." ”
I swallowed my saliva and said, "Where's Haikui?" ”
The fat man's face was very serious, and he said, "It's temporarily blocked with something, it's making noise underneath, it is estimated that there are too many hibernating fish, these things are hungry and crazy, and that plank won't last long." ”
I originally wanted to discuss with the fat man the question of whether the fish would hibernate or not, but now that the situation was urgent, I suppressed it first, I thought about it, shook my head and said, "Can't you abandon the ship now?" Then I asked the fat man how long the draught of the boat could last, and the fat man was stunned, obviously not understanding what I was doing at this juncture, so I pointed to him under the sea, and when the fat man looked at it, his face turned blue.
Nowadays, the boat is full of sea kui, and the lifeboat is so fragile that we will definitely be eaten without even bones when we go into the water in the lifeboat.
When I saw that the fat man had come to my senses, I said, "How big is the hole in the boat?" ”
The fat man made a big round, and then said, "Close to the keel of the ship, there is no way to repair it." ”
The main composition of an ordinary clipper like this is still the keel technology, that is, the main beam at the bottom of the ship, if the hole is really close to the beam, then the ship will have to be abandoned.
The fat man estimated: "At this draught speed, in less than ten minutes, it will definitely sink." ”
Ten minutes...... Ten minutes. The string in my head was very tight, and when I looked up, I saw the mustache at the helm, and everyone else looked at me, which was the kind of gaze that was cast at the leader at a critical moment, and I was slightly stunned when I saw this gaze.
Once, I used this kind of eyes countless times to look at the third uncle, at the stuffy oil bottle, at all the people around me who can take the lead, and they also lived up to their expectations and saved my life again and again, this time, can I save the lives of this boatman?
I asked myself a moment, then quietly pinched myself on the thigh to force myself to calm down, and then I said to Big Mole and the other fellow, "You two go to the captain's room to help, take turns at the helm, drive to maximum power, and shake off the stuff underneath." Then, I pointed to the gray mouse and said, "You go on patrol." ”
The fat man probably guessed what I was going to do, immediately pulled out the gun, pointed to the bottom of the cabin, and said, "There are seven of them below, and it shouldn't be a big problem for the three of us to go down." He pointed to me and my son.
Now it is imperative to abandon the ship, but when abandoning the ship, there must be no Haikui around, their bite force is too large, one bite down, I am afraid that our lifeboat will be finished directly, so if you want to abandon the ship, you must first drive full horsepower, get rid of the excess Haikui, and then block the hole under the ship, and strangle the Haikui in the cabin, only then abandon the ship, will not be attacked.
