Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 143 The Fierce Ghost Comes Out of the Cage (Part 2)

I thought about disposing of a dead body at sea and throwing it directly into the sea to feed the fish. There is no point in hiding the body in the mezzanine of the bottom cabin. I am afraid there is something else in this sea willow boat, and it may not be a zombie. And in view of Ruan Hei and other Dan people's pious attitude towards maritime superstition, I dare to say that he would never dare to hide a dead person in a ship. No matter what it is, let him pull it out and take a look.

Fatty and I made random guesses, and my hands were not idle at all. Shirley Yang and I stepped forward to help Guchai escape. After pulling him away, there was no movement in the hole in the cabin, and the deep water under the boat boiled out. The undercurrent disappeared, and the water level in the bottom tank immediately dropped a lot. I asked Shirley Yang to focus the flashlight and all luminous equipment on the cabin, and then used the dragon arc knife in my hand to cut on the cabin board. In an instant, the entire baffle of the mezzanine was pried open. The mezzanine in the bottom cabin was very narrow, with a space less than half a meter wide inside. Once the baffle was removed, the mezzanine was dark. The lump of something, with a rough surface and full of holes of different sizes, turned out to be a large sea stone flower that grew on the ancient sea willow fossil.

There is a white human skeleton leaning on the sea stone flower. There is no cloth on the body and 80% of it has been rotted away. This white skeleton is wrapped in the sea stone flower and is motionless. It keeps moving along the bones and joints of the body and the eye sockets and nostrils on the skull. Black water is dripping from the ground. This thick black liquid is like the accumulation of liquid in the coffins of ancient tombs. However, it is odorless and tasteless. It seems to be flowing out from the sea stone flowers. After accumulating in the bilge, it slowly flows out again. Seeping into the sea willows.

On the black seastone flowers, there are dozens of creatures that are half fish and half shrimp, crawling in and out. The upper part looks like a fish, with scales and fins. The fish head is round and smooth, and the lower part looks like a shrimp, with The carapace and claws seemed to have made their home in the sea stone flowers. From time to time they would lick the black water from the bones of dead people, sucking it with hissing sounds, looking very greedy. When the beam of the flashlight was illuminated, they would fall to the ground one after another, with their heads It hit the cabin board and made a "dong dong dong" sound, which was very much like the wooden fish knocked by the monks in the temple. There was a rattling sound in the mouth, just like chanting mantras and sutras, and I didn't know what they were mumbling.

Shirley Yang and others looked at each other in confusion. No one knew what was in the cabin. Under the beams of various flashlights, a shadow suddenly moved in the sea stone flower. The four of us subconsciously looked towards Taking a step back, I saw a human-shaped shadow among the sea stones and flowers, trembling slightly in the reflection of the water waves, as if it was about to come out.

I thought to myself: "Since the Trident was acquired and refitted by the British, Ruan Hei has been helping on the ship. Guchai has been with the ship's boss Ruan Hei for so many years. Maybe he knows what this sea stone flower-like thing is." But after seeing it, Gu Chai glanced at him and found that he was obviously at a loss, with a somewhat panicked look on his face. He thought a ghost would crawl out of the sea stone flower, pointed at the cabin and said to me: "Ghost... ghost..."

I raised my hand and pressed his mouth, stop talking nonsense, don't you know that there are some things that you don't want to talk about? The more you talk, even if there are no ghosts in the first place, sooner or later there will be ghosts. There are only more ways to sail and sail than tomb robbers, but no less than tomb robbers. Maybe there are sea stone flowers hidden in the cabin, and these strange fish that can kowtow. , is some kind of secret shrine on the ship. The boss of the ship will often put some random things on the ship, only things they think are auspicious, but why can they neither talk about it nor see it with their eyes at sea? Are the deaths of the British explorers who modified the willow ship really related to the contents of the cabin?

Shirley Yang said: "We don't know these things, but just now the skeleton seemed to have grabbed Guchai's leg, and now it's not moving again. I don't know what's weird about the blurry figure in the sea stone flower. I see everything Everyone needs to be careful. Now that we have abandoned the ship, it is best to ignore this hidden cabin and leave as soon as possible."

I said to Shirley Yang: "We are thinking of getting together again. I also think there is something wrong with this sea stone flower. Let's just go up there and get some explosives and blow it up completely so that we can't see it anymore." Just to clean it up, so that I don’t have to worry about it all the time and can’t put it down wherever I go.” After saying that, I dragged Guchai and wanted to lead everyone up to the deck to meet Uncle Ming and Duo Ling who were staying above, and wait for them to get it. Explosives are coming to blow up this weird sea stone flower.

Before we could turn around and leave, the strange fish in the cabin suddenly stopped, opening and closing its mouth and spitting out black beads. Although they were only the size of a fingernail, they were pitch black and bright. Using a flashlight, When I looked up, a rare and strange halo suddenly appeared, and I exclaimed in my heart: "It's black!"

The crystal clear moonlight pearls in the South China Sea are of extraordinary value. They are the result of the snails and clams receiving the yin essence of the moonlight, and the nacre is continuously secreted from the pearl sacs, and then the nacre is transformed into substance, and the essence of the sea is condensed. Among them, those born in response to the moon are silver, white, light yellow, and pink. Especially those whose brilliance is brighter than the moon and can illuminate a hundred steps after the lamp is extinguished are the best. But the pearls are even better than this kind of moonlight pearl. , is the rarest "black pearl" in the sea. No one expected that the strange fish with sea stone flowers and human bones as its nest would spit out black pearls, and they couldn't help but stopped and were about to leave.

But not to mention Fatty and I, who rarely go to sea, even the "gold-touching captains" who rarely go to sea. Even the Dan people in Longhu, few are really lucky enough to see black pearls. I only heard Uncle Ming talk about the black pearls among the Dan people. People call it "Wuqiu", which is a rare treasure under the sea that can be encountered but cannot be found, but I find it very strange. Many creatures in the world have inner elixirs and stones, such as bezoar, dog treasure, and donkey stone. Fatty and I have seen it with our own eyes. There are red sarcoma-like inner elixirs in the corpse of the old weasel, which are all produced by swallowing the essence of the sun and the moon intentionally or unintentionally, but these things are not as good as the moonlight pearls of the old snails and clams in the sea.

Fish in the sea and lakes can live for a long time, and they can also play with pearls in front of the moon. However, the magical object "Wu Qiu" cannot be conceived out of thin air by fishes and dragons, but only by a very special kind of old clam. This thing, but if these fish beads in front of me are not "Wu Qiu", what else can they be?

The fat man stared closely at the black pearls on the deck, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and said happily: "Commander Hu, I remember when we were poor, we were just like the white-haired girl in the mountains looking forward to liberation every day. No, Looking forward to nothing else, I just hope to get a windfall by touching the dog's head and blond hair. I really don't know which incense stick to burn when I go to sea this time. I just got the Nanyang Buddha's outfit, and these little black treasures are hurriedly delivered to my door. Here we are, it’s not that we are rich and powerful, why should we be so polite..." As he said this, he reached out to pick up the "Wu Qiu". After picking one up, he muttered the same thing: "The yacht that the fat man drove in the Pacific... This is from California. The villa... this... is his fat father's little girl in the United States..."

Seeing the fat man's look of falling into the eyes of money, I felt something in my heart, and I seemed to suddenly think of something. I recalled with concentration, I thought of the dead Ruan Hei, and the greedy and forgetful nature of the Danman, which may be said to be greed. It is not appropriate, but should be said to be a habit or a conventional rule. In their traditional tradition, whenever they encounter a dragon's lair, they must harvest it to the last possible extent and never leave any concepts behind. , are desperadoes who are desperate for their lives. If this is the case, then why didn’t the old man Ruan Hei take the "Wu Qiu" hidden in the bottom of the cabin? unless……

My mind was at this point, and just when I was about to turn this corner in my mind, Shirley Yang thought of it one step ahead of me. She said anxiously: "Fat man, stop taking it. These things are probably not from the bottom of the sea!" But the fat man didn't care. , still picked up the few remaining black pearls.

At this time, Guchai pointed to the mezzanine of the secret cabin that had been pried open: "Brother Hu, there is a ghost. Believe me, there really is a ghost..." His pronunciation of Chinese is not as clear and accurate as Ruan Hei, and he knows the sentences Not too much. Some of the things I want to say are often unable to be expressed. I am so anxious that I just stamp my feet, turn over and over again and keep mentioning ghosts.

I just looked at the fat man to prevent him from having any accidents while he was busy hugging "Qingtou", and casually said to Guchai: "I believe you are an egg, you can talk nonsense, what's the ghost? There are only eggs and no ghosts in the sea, I I really can’t remember the last time I saw a ghost, but I really haven’t had egg fried rice in ages...” Although I didn’t think twice about what I said, under the influence of reflex nerves, Shirley Yang and I still followed him. I glanced at it with my hand, and I don’t know when the blurry black figure among the sea stones and flowers became clear. The outline of the facial features was clearly visible, but it was like a reflection in the water. I couldn’t tell whether it was a man or a woman. The ghost figure It seemed like a piece of deep black sea water, floating between the solid sea stone flowers and sea willows, suddenly flowing into the pile of dead bones, and black water immediately flowed out of the deep-set eye sockets of the skull, as if pouring out of the skull. Two lines of dark tears, the wailing of the wronged souls, I seem to feel that the entire sea willow ship has been shrouded in the shadow of death. It seems that the situation is not good. From the moment the bottom cabin was broken, we were doomed to be hopeless. There is no way to escape, and they will immediately repeat the mistake of the British group that was wiped out.

(Note: Dragon Cave - waters with clam beads)

The Hailiu Ship is an ancient ship like a cultural relic. It is said that it was used by pirates at one time. Although the hull has been overhauled and modified several times, the main structure is still the earliest Hailiu Ship, which is still in use today. It was built by the British two years ago. People bought and refitted the boat. During the period when the boat was on Coral Temple Island, Danman Ruan Hei and several local fishermen were hired to maintain the Hailiu boat and also participated in the refitting operation.
