Chapter 1647 Human Skin Sail, Prison Ship Exiled Overseas
Wuwuwu——
The black wind howls, covering the charming eyes and falling into the human soul.
Less than a day had passed since the last black storm, another storm broke out on the sea, and the black storm violently swept across the world.
The weather in the underworld is unpredictable, and the weather on this vast and boundless sea is even more unpredictable.
This was not the first black storm disaster experienced on the ghost ship. After the headless Jinan had several experiences, he asked the one-eyed paper-piercing man to close the sails, and then found a sheltered place to hide the wind-fixing beads.
, use the Wind Technique and the Soul Concentration Technique together to easily deal with the black wind disaster.
Even the one-eyed paper-pricked man was pulled to his side to protect him from being swept away by the black wind.
Perhaps because of the relationship between his reborn parents, One-Eye Zhizharen behaved very submissively and obediently towards Headless Jin An, and did not rebel against Tiangang's behavior.
Wutou Jin'an sometimes felt that he had been in the underworld for a long time, and his temperament was unknowingly affected by the yin energy. Facing this black storm, instead of feeling bored, he felt a bit of anticipation.
I hope the ghost ship can bump up some more broken arms and legs for him to pick up.
He is looking forward to this, of course, not because he is a pervert and has a hobby of collecting foreign objects, but because he hopes to be able to reproduce a few more one-eyed paper-pierced people, so that he can learn more details of the inside story and get closer to the truth.
Just when Headless Jin'an was expecting that the black wind disaster would last longer and the ghost ship would be bumpy for a longer time, in the roaring black wind outside the ship, he actually saw a huge fuzzy black shadow moving at high speed.
If it can move extremely fast on the sea at this time, it is most likely a ghost ship.
There are tens of thousands of sunken ships in the upper world, and there must also be thousands of ghost ships in the underworld. Headless Jin An stared motionlessly at the blurry shadow of the ship in the depths of the black storm.
He had long known that he would definitely encounter other ghost ships on this trip, so he did not show surprise or surprise. On the contrary, he had been wandering at sea for so long before encountering other ghost ships. He was already very lucky.
The reason why it is said to be good luck is because the later you encounter other ghost ships, the easier it is to avoid unnecessary complications and troubles.
"I don't know if there is fierce competition among the same ghost ships... such as snatching ships, swallowing Yin Qi, etc."
A sudden thought occurred to Wutou Jinan.
Then they prayed that the ghost ship on the opposite side would not get close and attack them.
Unfortunately, his luck had run out, and the other party actually moved straight towards them, as if he was heading directly towards them.
Being able to travel in the black storm and meet on the boundless sea is enough to explain the problem. The other party is most likely coming directly towards them.
Headless Jin'an still didn't take any action, and continued to hide in the hiding place with the one-eyed paper stickman, his body always facing the ghost ship after the black wind disaster, as if to show that he was always watching the movement of the ghost ship.
Headless Jin'an doesn't want to cause trouble, but it doesn't mean that he is afraid of trouble. Just because he can't use his fists on this ghost ship doesn't mean that he has enough patience with other ghost ships.
If the ghost ship on the other side was really ungrateful and came to sabotage his investigation of the Immortal Cauldron, he would have no choice but to forcibly save the ghost ship on the other side physically.
As soon as he finished his thoughts, the ghost ship came closer. Before, it was still a blurry black shadow. Now it was so close that the outline of the ship's mast could be vaguely seen, and the shape of the ship could be vaguely recognized.
Headless Jin An adjusted his body posture slightly, changing to a position that would allow him to explode later. He was like an old hunter with enough patience, waiting quietly for the ghost ship to approach, and then gave him a violent blow.
.
Closer.
The ghost ship looked more decayed than the one under his feet. It looked like it was at least a hundred years old. The hull was so old that it was covered with moss and holes, as if it would capsize at any time in the boundless sea.
This ship is a three-mast ship, a typical sea-going ship shape, with the shadow of the Han Dynasty shipyard, but it is not from the Kangding Kingdom. It should be a ghost ship from a few dynasties, because the hull shape is somewhat similar to the shipbuilding technology of this dynasty.
difference.
There is no canvas on the three masts. Instead, the masts are made of many pieces of whole human skin mixed with human sinews and are used as canvas substitutes.
At first glance, this ship gives people a sense of endless evil and bad intentions.
The ship was even more decorated with many flags and flags, and those flags were written with the ancient characters "sin". These ancient characters further verified that this ship was not created by this dynasty.
Seeing those flags with the word "sin", Wutou Jinan thought in his mind, and he already had a rough guess about the origin of the ship.
The ghost ship in front of us should be a prison ship specially used for deporting prisoners.
Some dynasties had a tradition of using old retired navy ships as prison ships at sea to exile prisoners. There are several theories in historical records as to why criminals were exiled at sea.
The first is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure and save the national treasury expenditure.
The second is exile overseas.
The third is related to some ancient sacrificial activities.
Regardless of the type, the food and water on these prison ships are limited. The ships drift with the tide after being exiled, making it almost impossible for officials to transport supplies. Moreover, in order to prevent these exiled criminals from returning to the land by boat, the masts or canvas will be cut off before being exiled.
, which is equivalent to letting these exiled people fend for themselves on the ocean.
This is the reason why there is no canvas on the mast of the prison ship in front of us. Human skin and tendon are sewn together as a substitute for canvas.
Behind every piece of completely peeled human skin is the hysterical madness of human nature before it survives. It kills the old first, then the weak, and finally the people around them. The flesh and blood left after the skin is peeled can also be stored as dried meat food.
These were not just conjectures on his part. From time to time, prison ships drifted along with the tide and ran aground along the coast. The scenes that happened on the prison ships could not be described as dehumanizing.
Never underestimate the evil of human nature before survival.
The situation of the plague ship is different from that of the prison ship. The plague ship is a group of people infected with the plague who were exiled overseas and are destined to die.
The people exiled on the prison ship are all extremely vicious criminals. Never overestimate the moral bottom line of these people. In order to survive, these people will do anything.
A prison ship that can appear in the underworld and drift in the underworld, no need to guess, must have sunk in the sea in the underworld. Even if the ship did not sink, all the people on the ship would have died and become a harmful ghost ship.
At this time, the prison ship is eyeing the ghost ship where the headless Jin'an is, just like the evil ghost is eyeing the ghost, and strengthens its own practice by devouring the ghost.
However, the prison ship was targeting the wrong prey today. Not to mention that there was a headless Taoist crew member with profound Taoist skills on the ghost ship. The Karma of the Immortal Cauldron carried on the ghost ship was not something that a prison ship could provoke.
.
The Prison Ship Ghost Ship did not know this, and continued to approach despite the strong wind and committing crimes.
