Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 2
bow deck.

Several plastic baskets were scattered on the ground.

The sailor in a light yellow raincoat fell down, panicked, and fled backwards with hands and feet, shouting,
"There are ghosts, there are water ghosts boarding the ship!"

On the ship's side in front of him, a large piece of dark green seaweed climbed up the fence as if it had been given life, and after a while it formed a net bag made of seaweed, followed by several short ones in bamboo armor. figure.

Rather than climbing up along the seaweed net, they seemed to be pushed onto the deck by the seaweed.

In the light cast by the searchlight on the top of the captain's cabin, these strange corpses that should have disappeared decades ago fell directly on the deck as soon as they crossed the fence, lying on the ground in a mess.

Woo~woo~
In a trance, there was a strange howling sound in the storm.

Gray-white mist rises from the turbulent waves.

After circling a few times in the dark, he went straight to the corpse on the deck as if he had found his target.

The gray-white mist penetrated through the gaps in the bamboo armor of the corpses. It didn't take long for the corpses to tremble violently, their limbs and joints bent back in strange postures, and they crawled up amidst the creepy sound of flesh and blood shifting.

in the light.

The drooping head was raised high, the face under the helmet was riddled with holes, and the gray-white mist was like worms moving through the pits of flesh and blood.

These Japanese drowned corpses have been silent in the sea for decades.

What is awakened now is only an extreme desire for life, and plundering the vitality of others is the only way to fill their desires!
Even without weapons, these drowned still raised their arms and stretched forward. The moment they could move, they rushed towards the nearest sailor. Can watch drowned attack.

Just when he closed his eyes in fright and waited to die, a hand came out from behind, grabbed the collar of his neck and flung it aside.

He turned his head and looked over.

Yan Jing held a steel fork in his hand, and a straight knife that was usually used for fishing in the sea was hung on his waist, and he stepped forward.

Like soldiers on the battlefield, there is no retreat!

His eyes were fixed on the drowned corpse in front of him, and there was no trace of fear in his black and white pupils.

Since it is a novice event, the strength of the enemy is absolutely limited, and there is no way to avoid it, so we will face the difficulties.

It took a few years to stand out from a group of rough men who have been at sea for many years and become the first mate of a fishing boat. What Yan Jing relied on was not to shrink back when encountering difficulties, but to be the first to face difficulties!

As the drowned body rushed to the front, Yan Jing took a step forward, and the steel fork pierced into the drowned body's abdomen.

drink~
Yan Jing shouted angrily, his arms were tense, and the brute strength he had honed over the years of rough and heavy work suddenly erupted, allowing him to use the momentum of the drowned's charge to pick it up, turn around and throw it off the deck.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a drowned corpse who was slashed at the neck by Zheng Sanshan and kicked away.

At this time, the ship owner, who was over half a century old, also showed impressive courage, holding a knife and shouting loudly,

"What are you panicking? There are only eight water ghosts in total. There are more than 30 people on our boat. Each of them can cut them into sticks with one knife. This boat is where we stand. Look around. There is no way out. Let me get them all. arms!"

"These corpses don't have weapons, they rely on scratching and biting. There are many steel forks and iron rods on the boat. Come and break their limbs with me. Some people will come up with two barrels of gasoline and prepare to kill those corpses." The seaweed burns."

The captain boosted his morale, while Yan Jing quickly followed up and proposed a battle plan.

The two people with the highest status on the ship took the lead, and the fear that should have spread among the many crew members was suppressed for a while, and some people brought harpoons and steel rods to join the battle.

The chaotic situation was barely stable, and Yan Jing took this opportunity to observe her enemies.

When throwing the corpse for the first time earlier, a reminder sound appeared in his mind. Although it was only a few words, it also provided Yan Jing with some information to a certain extent, allowing him to prepare mentally in advance.

It's just that during the battle, the voice in my mind didn't reappear.

He thought he would gain some combat experience, an upgrade or something
Most important of all was the ghost-faced fish glimpsed earlier.

Yan Jing realized that these drowned corpses in front of him were probably just minions controlled by it, and the real key should be the former, otherwise this routine event would not be named after it.

'In any case, burn the seaweed net first, the mission prompt says that as long as you persist until dawn, you will be successful, at least ensure the safety of the ship first! '

With a sudden change of mind, Yan Jing put down the fish for the time being, and threw herself into the battle with all her heart.

The development of the matter was just like what Yan Jing said, these drowned corpses looked extremely terrifying, but in fact, apart from their strength, their movement speed and attack strength were just normal.

If I have to say it, it is similar to the zombies in some horror movies.

Relying on the advantage of the number and the long weapon, Yan Jing quickly led people to stab these corpses over, and the second officer found a fishing net ingeniously, and directly tied up these drowned corpses.

After all, even if their heads were poked, they could still move. Restricting their ability to move was the easiest and most effective way.

"Brother Yan, look quickly, there is another seaweed crawling up!"

After finally getting rid of these drowned corpses, someone soon noticed another seaweed clinging to the bow.

It was just the first wave of offensive.

Yan Jing's complexion sank, and she was about to say something when two people with oil barrels ran up from the right,

"Brother Yan, gasoline!"

"Second officer, you are on the left and I am on the right. One person is responsible for one side. Pour gasoline on it, and be careful to pour it on the lower half."

Yan Jing took the oil barrel and lighter, explained something, turned around and went straight to the seaweed net just now, and then said,
"Come here a few people, help me look around!"

The few drowned corpses on board the ship have been subdued, it is the critical moment to solve the crisis, the others dare not neglect, immediately three people followed Yan Jing's pace.

One person is responsible for lighting with a strong searchlight, and the other two are standing on the left and right with steel forks.

Yan Jing opened the lid of the oil drum and poured it towards the seaweed net on the side of the boat. The gasoline dripped down the seaweed net. Yan Jing also saw the drowned body moving towards this side in the sea water around the fishing boat through the searchlight.

The second wave of offensive is brewing.

When more than half of the barrel of oil was poured down, new drowned bodies had already risen from the bottom wrapped in seaweed. Yan Jing knew the situation was critical, so she quickly covered the wind and rain with her hands after putting down the oil barrel, and lit the seaweed net with a lighter.

In an instant, the fire was blown up by the wind with the gasoline, and soon the whole seaweed net was ignited, and the situation on the other side was similar.

Yan Jing didn't retreat too far.

He took the steel fork from the crew and swiped it back and forth on the ship's side to cut off the seaweed that had been dried by the flames. Soon after, he heard the sound of heavy objects falling into the sea from outside the ship's side.

"This method works, Brother Yan, you are the best!"

Seeing that the situation was finally under control, the three people who followed him immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Yan Jing with a little more reverence.

"Don't be careless, pay attention to the surroundings, there is still some gasoline, if there are seaweeds sticking up somewhere. Dafei, be careful!"

Yan Jing looked around while speaking, and suddenly found something wriggling in the darkness in front of the left, and in the next second, he saw two tentacles flying out, and went straight to a crew member who came with him earlier.

When the latter noticed the abnormality, the two tentacles were already binding his upper body.

"Hold him!"

With a loud cry, Yan Jing switched the steel fork to her left hand, and drew out the straight knife at her waist with her right hand, and slashed at the tentacles.

Yan Jing spent more than 1000 yuan to ask a friend to make this straight knife. Although it doesn't look very good, it is sharp enough to easily cut through the thick fat of large sea fish with one knife.

Now facing this monster's tentacles, its performance is still good, and it cuts a clear gap with a single cut.

The bound person was still two meters away from the side of the ship, and several crew members who ran from behind barely held him.

Taking advantage of these people's tug-of-war with the monster in the sea, Yan Jing kept swinging his knife, and finally cut off two tentacles a second before he was about to be taken out of the deck, and successfully rescued him.

The crew fell to the ground, and Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he was about to turn around and go back to deal with the seaweed net, the abnormal wind noise from behind his head made his expression change drastically.

Hey!
Yan Jing raised her arms in a race against time.

Not to surrender, but to prevent the monster from directly wrapping around his arms like before.

Now the crew member closest to him was lying a few meters away, and there was no time to help. He knew that he could only rely on himself!

Amidst the exclamation of the crew, Yan Jing, who had no one to help, was directly taken out of the deck by the tentacles.

Trying to turn around in mid-air, Yan Jing stared wide-eyed against the wind and rain, and swung a knife to cut off the tentacles on the side of his body. From the corner of his eyes, he looked at the vortex and the gradually expanding shadow in the turbulent waves below.

Death seemed imminent.

Do not!
It's not over yet!
Taking a deep breath, Yan Jing raised the knife again after cutting off the tentacles, opened his mouth to bite the back of the knife, held the steel fork with both hands, and fell towards the vortex in the sea.

next second.

As if aware of the arrival of prey.

The monster hidden in the sea jumped out!

It was a large strange fish with a body length of more than five meters. It was covered with off-white scales like skulls and bones, and the top of its head was covered with disgusting pustules. The central part pieced together a strange human face. face.

While rushing towards Yan Jing, the strange fish opened its mouth full of fangs, intending to swallow the former whole.

rumbling~
Between lightning and thunder, pale thunder reflected the sky and the earth.

Suppressing the fear in her heart, Yan Jing held up the steel fork, and inserted straight into the head of the monster fish one second before the collision, causing its bloody mouth to close again.

Immediately, the whole person flipped over like a pole vault, and landed on the back of the strange fish.

The right hand grabbed the handle of the straight knife in his mouth, and the left hand didn't care too much, grabbing the scales of the strange fish.

Even if the flesh is cracked and the blood is pouring, he will never let go.

Grit your teeth and swing your knife to chop!
