The ship appeared very clearly in everyone's eyes, but until the last moment, no one noticed that there was a ship in the direction of sailing.
When he saw the dilapidated ship, Luo Kai was stunned, and with half of his cigarette left, he was sucked in by the sea breeze.
The people on board the Dahira have not yet reacted, but Luo Kai, who has excellent eyesight and good observation skills, has already discovered the problem - the structure of the ship is the same as that of the Dahira!
If you even think about it a little more, it’s the Daping!
As the ship continued to move forward, the Ohira was already parallel to the ship.
At this time, everyone can see the strangeness of this ship. It has full sail, but its speed is strangely parallel to the Ohira. Of course, it may be because there are too many holes in its canvas.
On the silent sea, the ship was like a decaying black cloud, silently traveling not far from the Ohira.
Luo Kai stared at the boat opposite with a serious face.
The hull of the ship was pitch black and the sails were turbid, as if they were covered with a layer of substance and were messy.
There is a faintly familiar rotten smell drifting over with the sea breeze.
There was also a big hole in the bilge of the bow, and waves of seawater poured in from time to time, but even so, there was no sign of sinking.
"Go and wake up Lao Zhou!"
Some sailors thought this situation was strange and hurriedly called for help.
Lao Zhou was the captain of the ship who was still in his sixties but still as old as his age. He woke up quickly after hearing the shouts of the sailors. He thought something had happened and hurriedly walked out.
But the boat was not bumpy, and the sea was still calm and calm as far as the eye could see, and there was no fog at all.
Doesn't it seem like a big deal?
"Look at that ship!"
Old man Zhou turned his head and looked to the right when he heard the sound, and saw a dark and shabby ship on the sea only ten meters away from the Daping, almost completely parallel to it!
Even the rules of that ship are the same as those of the Ohira!
This discovery made Old Man Zhou tremble with goosebumps all over his body!
Not only is it easy for ships to collide if they are too close, but what is even more frightening is the weirdness of this ship!
He raised his head and glanced at the night sky. After determining the direction, he immediately shouted to the sailors on the deck: "Everyone, face forward and don't look back! If anyone turns back, I will kill him later!"
While roaring, Old Man Zhou rushed to the deckhouse aggressively, pushed aside the overwhelmed helmsman and took the helm himself, and directed other sailors to pull up the sails.
The sailors on the ship obeyed the order, and those who were sleeping were pulled up to work.
Soon, the Dahira turned at an extremely fast speed, changed the situation of running parallel to the ship, and headed towards another area of the sea.
In order to avoid completely losing its bearings, Old Man Zhou put his head out to observe the stars in the sky while steering the helm, trying to keep the Daping from straying too far from its original direction.
…
on deck.
Luo Kai stretched out his hand, pulled Xu Shuo's head back when he was looking to the side, and manually made him look ahead of the ship.
"Don't attract strange people." Luo Kai said.
"It's not me." Xu Shuo retorted.
When Luo Kai heard this, he followed his gaze and saw a sailor staring blankly behind the deck.
Luo Kai: "..."
Since it's an NPC, he can't stop it.
But even so, Luo Kai still manually turned Xu Shuo's head back again.
NPC can see it, but he can't!
…
After moving forward at full speed for a period of time, the strange black ship disappeared completely, and the speed of the Ohira also slowed down.
The surrounding sea remained calm and calm.
A sailor who was packing his things seemed absent-minded. He glanced behind the ship from time to time, but behind him was the endless sea with nothing.
He thought about it and felt a little confused.
The ship just now was shiny and bright, and seemed to belong to a large family. He even saw that the deck was piled with gold and silver treasures.
With such a beautiful boat, he thought that the boss of the boat would let everyone go over and communicate with each other, and maybe get some gifts from the other side, but to his surprise, everyone actually avoided it as if they were seeing a storm.
The sailor felt very sorry.
He kept thinking about the appearance of the ship, and the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt, and he even felt resentful towards the ship's boss who gave the orders.
But he is not the owner of the ship and cannot make the decision to return for the Ohira.
The sailor shook his head, and with a complicated mood, he balled up the ropes scattered on the ship and put them away, and then went into the cabin at the stern to rest.
He thought over and over, if it really didn't work out, he might have a chance to see the ship next time he went to sea by himself.
…
The commotion that just happened on the ship did not wake up Sister Suo, who was sleeping soundly in her cabin. She even forgot about learning the star-finding technique from her grandfather to identify the direction.
There is chaos outside, but the cabin is peaceful and quiet.
After far away from that sea area, Old Man Zhou stopped sailing and asked the sailors to go out with the starboard to observe the stars in the sky and reorient the direction.
The sailors who had been watching for half the night changed their shifts. At this time, the ones performing tasks on the ship were the sailors who had just been woken up after resting in the middle of the night.
"Boss, what happened to that ship just now?"
When Old Man Zhou was observing the stars, a young sailor who was helping to lift the star board couldn't help but ask.
Upon hearing the inquiry, Old Man Zhou glanced at him lightly: "What are you curious about? Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask."
The young man was reluctant: "But if you don't tell me anything, next time I encounter a situation like that, won't I be confused and not know how to deal with it?"
Old man Zhou thought about it and thought it made sense, so he said, "I'll talk to you after we land. Don't discuss these things randomly now."
"Oh alright."
The young man has some regrets.
He recalled the appearance of the ship and couldn't help but feel brooding. The dilapidated ship lingered in his mind, as if there was something inside that was attracting him.
Besides Old Man Zhou, other sailors were also discussing what had just woken them up.
"It should be a ghost ship."
A sailor muttered mysteriously: "It is said that after some ships sank at sea, the ghosts of the crew members lingered and refused to leave, so they drove the ship and continued to wander on the sea."
No one wants to encounter weird things like gods and ghosts. Everyone felt chills in their hearts when they heard it!
Because this is an ominous sign!
As a result, in the middle of the night, the sailors on duty were extremely nervous and nervously looked at the surrounding sea surface, fearing that they would encounter something strange.
But what happened earlier than the strange things was their internal collapse!
A scream suddenly sounded from the cabin.
Luo Kai, who was lying on the side of the ship and smoking out of boredom, perked up and looked towards the direction of the cabin with glowing eyes, just like a conditioned reflex!
"I'm coming?!"
"It's not like a normal death."
Xu Shuo had been paying attention to the absent-minded sailor. He was keenly aware of the other person's worry about gain and loss, so he paid some attention to the target.
But what surprised him was——
The deceased was the sailor.
According to the normal routine, the murderer might be the sailor who had the idea, and the deceased would most likely be the boss of the ship.
But now, the murderer he thought has become the deceased.
So rounding it off - he doesn't often resonate with the murderer at all, and the script space of the spicy chicken is indeed allocated randomly!
"Let's go and have a look!"
Xu Shuo was cursing in his heart, but Luo Kai had already pulled him towards the cabin at the stern of the ship.
The crew members on the Ohira were originally nervous, but the screams directly stimulated them. The sailors patrolling on the deck jumped up and rushed to the cabin.
In the deckhouse above the two-story building, the ship's boss also poked his head out of the door to take a look.
Luo Kai, who was the fastest, ran into the cabin first, just like the detectives rushing to the scene of the crime, and his eyes were blazing, and he immediately locked onto the tragically dead sailor on the ground!
The deceased died with his eyes closed. The fatal injury should have been the big hole in his stomach. Apart from the hammock where the deceased was lying, there were no blood stains or traces of fighting anywhere else in the cabin.
In fact, in addition to the deceased, there were four other sailors resting in this centralized accommodation cabin specifically for sailors to rest.
The deceased's hammock was placed at the outermost position, close to the cabin door. The entrance could be seen clearly at a glance.
Luo Kai took the lead, and before anyone else came in, he got closer to examine the bloody deceased, and found that all the internal organs in his stomach had been emptied, and even his heart was missing!
This discovery stunned him.
There were no signs of struggle in the cabin, and apart from the scream just now, there was no other violent noise from the entire ship.
Did the deceased feel no pain at all and was hollowed out?
Luo Kai put his hand out and simulated it.
Puncture the deceased with one punch, and then continue to empty the stomach. You must complete this process quickly and ensure that there is no movement around him.
It's actually a bit difficult.
"You...what are you doing?"
The sailor huddled next to him stared blankly at him, spreading his fingers and making a heart-cutting motion, and asked with a look of horror on his face.
When Luo Kai heard the sound, he put down his hand nonchalantly, then turned around and walked away as if nothing had happened.
At this time, several sailors on the deck had also rushed in. Looking at the tragic scene in front of them, they were half screaming and half stunned.
Luo Kai made room for them and ignored the confusion of the sailors. He turned around and saw Xu Shuo staring at the porthole and looking at something.
"What did you find?" he walked over and asked.
"Water stains." Xu Shuo said softly.
There were water stains on the half-open portholes, and they looked slimy, like the slime left behind by some reptile species.
Luo Kai stretched out his hand and twisted it, then said: "It does not look like a normal death. Did you feel anything just now?"
Xu Shuo shook his head: "I have been paying attention to the sailor, but until he died, I didn't notice anything unusual in this house. It seemed like he was just committing a crime using ordinary methods."
Luo Kai sighed after hearing this: "Sometimes being a director is quite troublesome, because it is difficult for us to interfere with the original plot when extracting complex scripts. What is established is that it will definitely happen. We cannot change it and can only go with the flow."
Even if you can't do other things, you still have to understand what happened.
Xu Shuo suddenly asked: "Where is that ship?"
"Ah?" Luo Kai paused: "No, he hasn't appeared since we left him."
It was hard for Luo Kai not to pay attention to that strange ship with the aura of the abyss, so he kept paying attention to the surroundings of the sea while smoking facing the sea.
But the ship did not appear again.
Xu Shuo looked at the porthole and said, "Look, this is coming."
Luo Kai suddenly looked back.
Outside the round porthole, a dark and dilapidated ship appeared at some point. Under the deep night sky, it almost blended into the sea water. It sailed quietly parallel to the Ohira.
At this moment, Luo Kai also felt chills trembling!
He swallowed: "Don't stare at others."
Xu Shuo looked at the ship through the porthole.
Apart from being a little dark and broken, no dangerous things have been found on the ship yet, and there are no scenes of monsters dancing in the abyss.
He just asked thoughtfully: "Did such a ship appear on the sea back then?"
Luo Kai was startled.
In a daze, the strong sense of déjà vu seemed to resound in his mind, another question that the young man had asked -
"Did the train rush down like this back then?"
So similarly, did the Dahira also encounter such a ship that was eroded by the abyss?
Hundreds of years ago in this world?
The script being extracted replays what actually happened at the time, which means that the Dahira must have encountered such a ship, and a series of stories happened.
So the question comes back -
Was there an abyss hundreds of years ago?!
Luo Kai frowned and stared straight at the ship outside, his expression almost as severe as ever!
Xu Shuo said leisurely beside him: "Well... Actually, there is no need to be so entangled. Maybe all the unsolved mysteries in the world happened like this, but we still survived."
Luo Kai was not comforted by this.
Because he thought of another question: "The world that has been eroded by the abyss for hundreds of years is almost coming to an end, just like those abyss battlefields in the script space."
After finishing speaking, Luo Kai suddenly turned his head and looked at the young man next to him, his meaning unclear.
From the first time he met and got along with him, he felt that this person was not very emotional. To put it mildly, he lacked empathy and did not have a strong sense of belonging to society or the world.
To put it bluntly, he has a bit of an antisocial personality.
But after thinking about this man's previous experience, he didn't criticize it.
He just sighed and said: "If our world had been eroded by the abyss hundreds of years ago, then this is really not good news."
Xu Shuo nodded: "Yeah."
Luo Kai: "..." Thank you, I was perfunctory.
While the two were talking here, Old Man Zhou, who had received the news, had also rushed to the cabin. When he saw the scene in front of him, he took a deep breath!
Then he yelled: "Has this brat looked back before? Who else among you has looked back? Please tell me immediately!"
Old Man Zhou's voice was like thunder, and the sailors around him were startled. Then they looked at each other, lowered their heads and hesitated.
No one is not afraid, but no one admits it out loud.
Maybe no one else really looked back except this sailor, or maybe they were all hiding it.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Old Man Zhou felt his heart sink to the bottom, and at this moment, his eyes suddenly glanced at the porthole.
Outside the porthole, a black ship ran alongside them.
At this moment, Old Man Zhou felt a chill in his heart. He stared blankly at the shadow of the ship, and immediately thought of Sister Suo who was still sleeping in the cabin.
Sister Sui only got haircut this year, so she is still young.
Old man Zhou has been drifting on the sea for decades. When he was young, he followed the boss of the ship as a sailor and traveled around the sea. In these decades, he never saw anything.
But I have never seen a "ghost ship" before.
But he also knew that no one who saw the ghost ship would survive.
