Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 99 Ghost Blood Ship

The boss of the ship, Ruan Hei, used full left rudder to avoid the catastrophic consequences of the collision between the two ships. When the bows of the two ships were wrong, the ship's rails were almost touching the ship's rails, and the distance between them was less than one meter. The degree of danger was as high as " As if we were scratching our heads, everyone on our boat was sweating in the palms of their hands. If the boat crashed and leaked, everyone would have to follow the "Trident" to the bottom of the sea to serve as exhibits in the shipwreck cemetery.

Fortunately, Ruan Hei turned the rudder quickly enough, and the two ships did not scrape together. It was too late, but in the blink of an eye, they had already rowed across the sea. The old-fashioned white ghost-like sailboat quickly penetrated under the action of the ocean current. It disappeared into the fog and disappeared as suddenly as it appeared, like a ghost on the sea whose traces disappeared and appeared.

The foggy sea surface was still silent. Because all this happened so unexpectedly and suddenly, everyone slowly came back to their senses until the boat disappeared into the sea fog. There was already a layer of white sweat on their foreheads. Who knew? He didn't know where the boat came from, but an indescribable feeling of confusion and fear spread throughout his body.

Anyone who has been running boats all year round can tell some strange stories about the sea. There are many legends about ghost ships and water ghosts, but most of them are hearsay. Very few people have witnessed it with their own eyes. Ruan Hei, who is at the helm, has been there since I have never encountered such a terrifying situation of facing a ghost ship directly. The most feared thing of fishermen and egg people is to encounter ghosts at sea. That is definitely not a good sign. They may be able to cope with strong winds and waves, but after all, he Captain Mo Jin, who was not fighting in reverse, how could he not be frightened when it came to matters in the underworld? Even though he was brave enough, his calves had also become soft at this time. If he hadn't pressed on the steering wheel to support his body, Almost collapsed to the ground.

Not only was Ruan Hei's body like sieving chaff, but even I felt terrified because the distance between the two ships was too close at the moment when the two ships passed by at the wrong time. Even though there was fog on the sea and everything was vast, there were still two ships within sight. The visibility was about ten meters, not to mention that the two ships were almost scraping together recently. At that time, even the traces of frayed cables on the three-masted sailboat could be clearly seen. I could see the deck and the surface of the ship clearly. There are mottled blood stains on the hatch. The blood has dried and turned black. It forms a strong contrast with the white hull of the ship. It is daunting. I wonder if it is the blood of the sailors on the ship, but where are all the people on the ship? ? Not even the bodies were left behind, only blood stains visible all over the ship.

When I told the others about this situation, it turned out that it was not just me who had seen it. Fatty, Shirley Yang, and Ruan Hei’s two apprentices Guchai and Duo Ling had all noticed this situation. It seemed that it was definitely not me who had seen it. I was dazzled. I could even smell the strong smell of blood coming from the ship just now. The fat man came up with an idea and said: "Damn it, it must be a ghost ship. I think we should go down quickly and prepare the water cannon. If we encounter it again, we will hit it with one." Get rid of it, lest it lingers in torn pants and wrapped around your legs, delaying our egg-collecting plan."

I thought to myself that if there really was a ghost ship, the cannonballs might not be useful. I turned around and looked at Shirley Yang, wanting to hear what she had to say. What kind of ship was it?

Shirley Yang shrugged helplessly: "Like you, I have a lot of questions to ask, but I don't even know how to ask them now, but I have a hunch that if that ancient three-masted ship is really coming towards us, Yes, it will reappear sooner or later, and the visibility at sea is too low now, which is very detrimental to us."

We have only discussed it for a few words, but we have not yet decided whether we should retreat instead of advance, or attack instead of defend? We saw the mast lights flashing in the fog, and the three-masted ship that we just passed by unexpectedly came towards us from the bow of our ship again quietly. Everyone looked at each other and turned pale, and quickly asked Ruan Hei to turn the bow of the ship. Avoid it.

If the first encounter with the three-masted ship a few minutes ago was able to be avoided quickly at the most critical moment, first of all, it was due to Fatty’s quick eyesight, and Shirley Yang quickly reminded Ruan Hei that the ship’s boss was not even surprised. He subconsciously turned the rudder to avoid it, but who would have thought that in such a short period of time, the white ghost-like ghost ship emerged from the sea fog in front of it. If it wasn't a ghost ship, what was it?

Everyone was dumbfounded in front of this strange appearance that could not be explained by common sense. This time, they were not as lucky as last time. The old white sailing ship was like a ghost condensed by sea fog, drifting uncertainly in the fog, and it came as it came. There was no warning, and there was no warning in advance. Although Ruan Hei, the boss of the ship, hurriedly turned the rudder with all his strength, he only avoided a direct collision. The sides of the two ships were scraped together, and fishing nets were hung on both sides of the three-masted ship. , there are white floats on the net, and there are rubber lifeboats tied with ropes on the side of the Trident, and they are suddenly entangled together, making it difficult to separate.

The two boats collided, causing the hull to shake violently. We lost our balance and staggered around on the deck. Guchai's center of gravity was unstable and he fell to the ground, almost rolling into the sea. He was so scared that he screamed, Shirley said. A cable was thrown to Guchai for him to hold on to.

The sea willow ship "Trident" had copper plate armor and avoided a direct collision. Not only was it intact, but because the water line under the ship was equipped with a water diversion spur, it scraped a hole in the side of the three-masted ship, and the sea water suddenly came from The three-masted ship was poured into the hole in the hull. Our Trident was entangled with it and it was difficult to separate. It was immediately tilted by the white ghost ship that began to sink due to the injection of seawater.

The degree of roll of the ship's hull was not severe at the moment, but the three-masted ship had a huge hull. Over time, it might be dragged into the sea. When the fat man saw this, he wanted to use a fish knife to cut off the ropes tied to the side of the ship. As for the lifeboat rope, this is a way to save the car by losing the pawn. I quickly stopped his move: "Put up the springboard and cut down the fishing net!"

In case of an accident on a ship, only lifeboats can give the sea wolves fighting for their lives on the sea a glimmer of hope in the vast sea. The lifeboats must not be abandoned until all options are exhausted. The fishing nets of the three-masted ship are floating If the lifeboat is hooked, even if our ship is not capsized by the three-masted ship that is about to sink, the hull or equipment will be damaged. The situation is forced and we can’t think about it any more, so we have to step on the gangplank and go to the opposite ship to cut it. Break those fishing nets.

At this moment, the boss of the ship, Ruan Hei, did not dare to speed up the ship. The "Trident" could only circle and circle with the opponent on the sea. Fatty and others like me and I set up the springboard as quickly as possible. Guchai and Duoling had just held down Shirley Yang jumped over the springboard first, jumped onto the three-masted boat nimbly, and struggled to cut the fishing net with a fish-cutting knife.

The fat man also wanted to cross over from the springboard, but the plank was even narrower than the balance beam, and it swayed with the ups and downs of the two boats. If he took a missed step, he would fall into the sea. People who are afraid of heights or timid people would not be able to cross. I don’t really care about anything else, but I’m naturally afraid of heights, so I felt a little timid before I even got on the springboard.

I pulled the fat man aside and rushed over from the springboard, shouting to him: "Don't go over there, just throw the cable over and meet us here. Once the fishing net is cut, we have to get back immediately." "As he spoke, he took advantage of the small gap where the springboard was slightly stable, and flew across to the three-masted ship.

Although the springboard is narrow and shaky, I had to practice tactical maneuvers against various obstacles almost every day when I was in the army. I probably have to pass the single-plank bridge no less than a few thousand times, but it is a military training facility after all. Passing between the two boats in the surging water, the sight made my feet feel weak. I didn’t dare to look at my feet at all. The gangplank, which is only about the width of my hand, was too dizzying. It was very likely that I would stumble if I was even a little scared. Going down, I only dare to fly across with a lot of energy.

After I passed by, I felt a little cramped in my calf. I couldn't help but admire Shirley Yang's courage. However, maybe the navy's training methods and focus were different from those of the army. Thinking of this, I didn't feel too ashamed. I picked up the serrated knife for chopping fish. Aim at the fishing net and chop and cut.

I have never seen a ghost ship, but I have heard of all the rumors involving ghost ships. The returned ghost ships can be roughly divided into two categories. The first is that all the people on the ship are dead or missing. The reason for this is It's all kinds of weird. They think that human beings' understanding of the ocean is too limited. Some people say that there are sea ghosts or mermaids who have become spirits in the sea. They can seduce sailors with their sounds and looks in the water. Once people on the boat are attracted by them, they will jump involuntarily. Some people say that it is because there are some things in the sea that cannot be eaten, and there is a kind of fish that will hallucinate when eaten, causing the crew to commit suicide by jumping into the sea, so there are unmanned empty ships on the sea. People are used to treating these The species of ship is called a "ghost ship".

There is another type of "ghost ship". Most of these ghost ships are ships that have been missing for many years. Some have even been missing for hundreds of years, but then suddenly appeared at sea and were discovered. There were no corpses of any crew members on the ship. All its facilities are still operating normally, as if it had just been out of the sea. No one knows where it has drifted to in the hundreds of years since its disappearance.

It is precisely because people cannot explain those mysterious phenomena that bizarre legends such as the "ghost" ship were born. However, these legends cannot seem to explain the strange things we encountered. When I bumped into this ship for the second time, I I wonder if there are many such three-masted white ships in the fog? But I can still remember a few small features on the hull, which can be confirmed from the hanging position of the mast light. This is indeed the same ship.

The behemoth three-masted white ship actually exists in front of you. If you cut it with a knife, you can leave a knife mark on the ship's hull. Moreover, the ship is indeed full of blood. The strangest thing is that the hull style is ancient and has no traces of blood. As is typical of any modern ship, the barque did not look shabby at all, and was even new in places.
