Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Story of the Ghost Ship
"What's wrong?"
"Is there something in the cabin?"
Jiu and Croobie also sensed that something was wrong.
Hachi swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said tremblingly: "I drank too much in a secluded tavern on Legut Island before, and I accidentally revealed to the bartender that we were going to sea...... When the bartender heard about it, he immediately told me about the ghost ship with a mysterious face. ”
Ziggy: ......
What kind of tavern is this? The bartender actually tells ghost stories to his guests?
No wonder it's secluded!
If he had told pornographic jokes, he would have become popular a long time ago.
"That was a few years ago, when a group of people called the Hammer Pirates were roaming the sea, and they somehow heard that there was a 'treasure cursed by the sea' nearby, so they started a treasure hunt for this purpose." Hachi imitated the bartender's appearance, trying to keep his face and tone as gloomy as possible.
The judging criterion of the pirate group is to go to sea illegally, especially the guys who want to find the "big secret treasure", they are all pirates qualitated by the world government.
"About last year, the gang finally found the 'treasure cursed by the sea', but soon after, those guys disappeared from the world, and there was no news at all.
At first, it was thought that they might have been secretly killed by those who coveted the treasure, but it was not that simple.
Just a month after they disappeared, someone on the island of Goulette rescued a shipwrecked man who claimed to be from the Hammer Pirates, and the man's mind was no longer clear, and his mouth kept repeating that he was dead, that he was going to die, and that he couldn't sleep.
At that time, everyone thought that he was scared stupid, so they sent him to the hospital, but various examinations showed that he was very healthy, only a little anxious.
The doctor prescribed him a tranquilizer, hoping that he could sleep well and rest, but the guy was extremely frightened of this, and kept emphasizing that he must not sleep, because he resisted too violently and even injured several medical staff, and the doctor was worried that he would have other overreactions, and did not take excessive coercive measures.
Later, it seemed that he couldn't hold it anymore, and the man curled up in a ball and fell asleep, and the strange thing was that he really died in his sleep.
Later, many people saw the Hammer Pirates' ship on the sea after the rainstorm, but there was no one on board, and they didn't see the ship docked, but the hull was as clean as new.
And the man who was rescued, no matter what he ate, he would even spit out his saliva, and the bartender told me that the guy must have been dead a long time ago, so he couldn't eat the food of the living. “
Speaking of this, Hachi couldn't help but shudder, he was most afraid of these stories, but he met a bartender who could tell ghost stories.
At first, he was still imitating the bartender, but the more he talked, the more scared he became, and now he was trembling.
"Hasn't anyone approached this ship in so long?" Ziggy asked.
"That's what I asked, and then ...... Then the bartender suddenly screamed as if he had seen something terrible......"
Ziggy looked stunned when he heard this—could it be that if he just told this story, he would be perceived by some unknown being?
It smells like that......
Seeing the four of them looking at themselves, Hachi touched his head a little embarrassedly: "It's me who listened too attentively, and when I asked, the hood fell off, which scared the bartender who had never seen a fishman enough." ”
Ziggy: ......
"Boring, I thought it was a terrible story, that's it?"
Ah Long was impatient and tore at the iron gate, but this seemingly not thick iron gate was actually completely deformed under Ah Long's pull, and it was obviously not an ordinary iron system.
"Heh, that's interesting."
Ah Long chuckled, directly pulled out the serrated knife, and slashed wildly at the iron gate, with his rough movements and strong tools, the iron gate was overwhelmed, and gradually deformed and cracked.
However, Ziggy noticed that something was wrong—how could this process of transformation not look like normal metal extension?
In the end, only a "bang" was heard, and the iron gate was completely destroyed, and after it fell...... It's gone!
It's like the interactive scene in the game will gradually disappear after being destroyed.
Seeing this, Zig looked puzzled, and then, he felt a clammy and sticky feeling of confinement coming from his whole body, as if he was tightly entangled by something slippery and cold!
There is also a slight feeling of familiar, sucker cups all over the place......
That's right - this is not some gram incident, but the terrified Hachi, screaming and hugging Zige!
"Stop making trouble!" Ziggy laboriously pulled the suction cup open and ripped Hachi off his body.
Zieg looked at the deep entrance of the cabin and said cautiously, "Do you want to inform the boss?" ”
"I'm afraid not...... The Snapper is no longer visible! "Croobie had already gone to the boat gang to see where they were coming.
"Why? Wait, when did this fog appear? Chirp was also a little panicked at this time.
I don't know when it started, but there was a thick fog around, and the Snapper with lights could not be found at this time.
"Pretending to be a ghost, I want to see what is going on this ship!" Ah Long said, swaggering down with the knife.
If this kind of person is in "The Master of Mystery", he should not live to sequence eight......
Ziggy also saw that Ah Long was also a little uncertain now, but the more he was uncertain, the more he would cover it up with anger.
So, "anger" doesn't have to be anger?
Aaron's style aroused some of Ziggy's thoughts about "anger", but Ziggy immediately came to his senses, and now was not the time to think about it.
At this moment, Zige's heart suddenly tightened, and then the hairs on his whole body stood on end—this time it was not Xiaohachi who hugged him, but Zige...... Something seems to be heard!
If it was a shrill sound similar to a ghost's scream, Ziggy didn't react so much, but some kind of inexplicable whisper, which made Zig instantly lose consciousness.
Luckily, it's just a moment......
"Did you hear anything?" Ziggy hurriedly assumed a defensive posture.
Ah Long had already walked halfway down, turned his head to look over, and said disdainfully: "After Xiaoba, did you start too?" If you're scared, jump into the sea and wait! Fish-people aren't even afraid of the sea, are they? ”
As soon as Ah Long's words fell, he heard a crisp rattle from the cabin below......
This time everyone heard it, and Ah Long also froze, and then he lifted the knife on his body and rushed down angrily: ", pretend to be a ghost!" Lao Tzu hacked you to death! ”
At this moment, a dense sound of doors opening and footsteps rang out from the cabin below.
This ship, which had been quiet and empty before, now seems to have suddenly come to life!
Although he didn't know what was going on, Ziggy still pulled back Aaron who was going down with Hachi, one left and one right.
The footsteps are neat and dense, and it seems that there are a lot of people coming out? Should...... It's a "person", right?
Even if you don't know what's going on, you at least know that it's not a good idea to rush down at this point—even if you don't run away immediately, it's better to hide in the boat and see what the situation is.
If the situation is not right, it is convenient to jump into the sea and escape!
The Fish-People will never be afraid of the sea.
Ah Long didn't have a bottom in his heart, so he half-pushed and half-pushed back, otherwise Zige and Xiaoba wouldn't have grabbed him so easily.
Ziggy naturally sensed such an obvious emotion, but he still decided to use this matter to mock him afterwards, if he said it now, Aaron would definitely rush down, the kind that no one could stop......
