Chapter 503: A Ghost Ship
The white plank stopped. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Ivo searched the bottom of the sea, but found nothing, and he immediately wondered, for a moment he thought that the white plank had failed, but when he pulled away, the white plank moved again, and still stopped on the empty sea.
Ivo was puzzled.
The sound of paddling came to Ivo's ears far away, and Ivo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly used the sea sense, and his vision extended a mile away, only to see a dwarf holding a raft, sailing on the ghost sea.
It was Orton.
Ivo was stunned, appeared in front of the raft, looked down at the raft condescendingly, and said in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Orton saw the giant appear, and a smile appeared on his tired face, "Finally caught up with you, my friend." ”
Ivo turned back into a human body and landed on the raft with a strange expression, "How are you following me?"
Orton smiled brightly, "I saw you on the island heading in this direction, so I followed." ”
Ivo pursed his lips, "In other words, you're just following the direction I left, do you know how small the chances of meeting me like this are?"
Orton laughed, "Didn't I find you now?"
Fools have foolish blessings, Ivo said silently.
"What are your intentions if you have to follow me?" Ivo frowned.
Orton's eyes widened in surprise, "We're friends, how can you leave me to play by myself?"
Ivo's head hurts, why are there such self-acquainted people in this world?! Although you are a dwarf, you are too enthusiastic!
"No matter how many times you say it, I'm not your friend. Ivo said coldly, "Stop pestering me. ”
Orton looked innocent, "Did I do something to make you angry?"
"You ......" Ivo was about to speak, when his eyes suddenly shrank and he looked at the misty sea in the distance.
The shadow of a black ship slowly approached, accompanied by an ethereal singing, the rhythm was far away and quiet, like a requiem.
"The ghost sings softly, lamenting the past.
Dreams are as bright as stars, and they are like drifting with the flow.
The storm dances and extradits the sleepers.
Fresh and withered and withered, there is no distinction between the underworld.
The beginning of life and death, the continuation of life from death.
Truth contains reincarnation, and only the dead can peep into ......"
With the ethereal singing, the black shadow of the ship gradually became clear, it was a tattered sailboat, the sails were broken like fishing nets, the hull was covered with coral shells and seaweed, like a shipwrecked ship that had sunk for countless years, and there were several holes in the belly of the ship, it was impossible for such a broken ship to sail, but something contrary to common sense appeared.
"Ghost ship!" Orton exclaimed, "I thought it was just a legend!"
The tattered sailboat approached slowly, and a hoarse voice came from the bow.
"I smell the breath of the living, get on board?"
Ivo stared at the bow of a standard pirate captain, dressed in a tattered cape coat and a captain's hat, with a black blindfold covering his left eyepatch, a chest-length beard, and long, messy hair tied with numerous braids, an old pipe in his mouth, and a parrot looking at Ivo on his shoulder.
If there is anything weird, this man and parrot have half-illusory dark green bodies, and their eyes have no eyeballs, but fluttering green ghost fire.
Maintaining most of the appearance of a human being, being able to speak, and possessing intelligence, this is a high-level undead!
Shadowy figures appeared on the ghost ship, all skeletons and ordinary undead, silently staring at Ivo and Orton.
"Ghost, ghost......" Orton shuddered and hid behind Ivo.
Ivo was speechless, "It's just an undead, you don't even have this knowledge, do you?" ”
"Wow, verbose!" Oton stammered, "Everyone has flaws, I'm just afraid of ghosts." ”
Ivo ignored him, looked at the captain of the ghost ship, and frowned, "Who are you?"
The ghost ship captain Sha laughed hoarsely, and his tone was inexplicable, "Who am I? Is it meaningful to ask such a question about an undead ghost? The memories of my life have long since drifted away like smoke, and if you want to know my identity, I can only tell you that my name is now Reed." ”
Ivo raised an eyebrow, "Listen to you, it seems that there is a story." ”
"Stories are for people to tell, and all I have are broken memories. Reid took a puff of his cigarette, "I've been paying attention to you for ten days, you seem to be looking for something, maybe I can help." ”
"Don't you think it's dangerous to accept an invitation from a stranger whose position is unknown?" Ivo said lightly, "not to mention the undead who hate the living. ”
"Danger depends on strength or weakness, I don't think you will be scared to pee your pants like the dwarf next to you. Reed said slowly.
"Who peed his pants, you undead!" Orton was annoyed and looked directly at Reed, his courage had just surged, but he was destroyed by Reed's terrible appearance, and his voice lowered again, "People who are not afraid of ghosts are not normal." ”
Ivo smiled, jumped to his feet, and jumped onto the deck of the ghost ship, where the undead and skeletons did not move. When Orton saw Ivo leave the raft, he was immediately frightened, and he mustered up the courage to jump on the deck, and when he saw that he was surrounded by the undead, he was almost frightened, and hurriedly hid behind Ivo. Ivo really couldn't do anything about this self-acquainted dwarf, so he could only selectively ignore it.
Reed walked into the captain's room first, "This ship hasn't had guests for a long time, come with me." ”
Ivo's face was calm, and he followed Reed into the captain's room, and Orton followed with trepidation, and the eyes of the undead and skeletons followed the movement of several people, and after entering the captain's room, Orton hurriedly closed the door, blocking the many eyes that made him creepy.
The style of the captain's cabin was the same as that of the entire ship, with dust and cobwebs everywhere, Reed swept the tables and chairs, said sit casually, and walked inside. Ivo glanced left and right, and from the pattern and style of the ship, he could probably tell that this ship should have been built hundreds of years ago, with a long history, dilapidated, and traces of time everywhere.
Ivo remembered Orton's previous words and asked, "You said you heard the legend of the ghost ship?"
Orton hurriedly replied, "Yes, because the Misty Sea and the Ghost Sea are very close to each other, many navigators have been to the Ghost Sea, and there have been rumors for hundreds of years that a broken sailing ship can occasionally be seen cruising in the Ghost Sea, and some people have tried to get closer, but none of the people who came close have returned. ”
"None of them came back?" Ivo said with a twinkle in his eyes, "Maybe this ghost ship is a man-eating cave." ”
Orton was taken aback, "No, I don't want to die yet!"
Ivo said slowly, "I'm just guessing. ”
Orton patted his chest and said in fear: "Friend, it's all up to you." ”
"Who is friends with you. Ivo's face darkened, how could he unconsciously talk to this dwarf?
Reed stepped out of the room, holding a bottle of red wine with a long-decayed label and three wooden wine glasses, which were relatively clean and appeared to have been washed.
"Poor hospitality. Lyde's tone was ethereal, and after he unplugged the wine, the rich aroma of wine came to his face, and Orton, who was still scared just now, suddenly straightened his eyes and licked his lips greedily.
The aroma of wine rushed into his nostrils, and Ivo perked up and said in surprise: "This wine is really superb." ”
"A centuries-old wine, not much worse. Reed poured three glasses, drank them himself, and lamented, "It's a pity that I have no sense of taste." ”
Ivo took a sip and said strangely, "Then what's the point of you drinking and smoking?"
Reed took a puff of cigarette and said lightly, "What I taste is not the taste, but the memory." ”
If you can, why don't you say it's lonely?
