Chapter 525 Ghost Ship

Now, although there are two hours left before dawn, we can't sit still.Zhou Xuanye left the Awakening Amulet to us, so we are likely to be the only people on this ship who are still awake. If we don't do something, the people on this ship may be doomed.

Tang Linlin and I hid in the corner, not to disturb the three of them for the time being. After thinking about it, I thought of Fu An, so I took out the kit hanging next to my body and wanted to call Fu An out, but it was hiding inside. , refused to show its head, I asked it why, and it said: "This ship has too much ghostly spirit, I will feel very uncomfortable when I come out."

I asked what kind of discomfort it was, and it said it was fear. It should be a weak ghost body, a natural fear of a powerful ghost body, but this is a ghost ship. I don’t know if it has the ability to swallow other ghost bodies. I don't dare to take this risk, so I can only give up the idea of ​​letting Fu An come out to explore the way.

Immediately afterwards, I discussed with Tang Linlin and decided to continue going up. This is the second floor of the cabin, and the deck floor should be on the top. There are only three people on this floor, so the rest, including Azi and Hanba, should also be on it. , I don't believe that even people like Hanba can be deceived.

Tang Linlin was already familiar with the second floor, and immediately led me to the direction of the stairs. This time, the wooden board was not closed, but from above, there was a dim yellow light, and it was very bright. It stands to reason that there should be a lot of people on it. There were footsteps, but on the contrary, it was quiet up there.

It was precisely because of this that Tang Linlin didn't run up alone.

At this moment, the two of us met, and we became more courageous, so we climbed up.

As soon as I arrived on the third floor, I found that it was a large space with gorgeous decoration and antique flavor. On the lamp sockets on both sides, the oil lamps were burning straight. There was no wind here, so the flames were straight and there was no beating.

At first glance, gorgeous carpets, neatly arranged Eight Immortals tables, exquisite carvings, everything, like an ancient banquet place, but here, there is no one.

I looked it over and guessed that this big ship should be an ancient official ship, and this place should be used by the more prestigious people on the ship for entertainment and gatherings, so I said: "Go, let's go outside and have a look."

Bypassing a screen, there is a door outside, the door is half open, and the back is pitch black.Tang Linlin and I were about to open the door to go out, but a person walked in from the door. This person was none other than Ah Zi who also had the Awakening Amulet.

When she saw us, she was taken aback for a moment, then her expression changed, and she said, "You...why are you here?"

I thought her question was a bit strange, so I said, "Where can we be if we're not here, we came up from below." Then, I pointed to the entrance and exit, Ah Zi's expression suddenly became extremely Strangely, she turned her head a little stiffly, turned back the flashlight in her hand, and said to the people behind: "Then... who are they?"

Looking in the direction of her flashlight, I couldn't help but gasp, because two people who were exactly like me and Tang Linlin were following behind Ah Zi with a distance of about five or six steps.

As the lights turned on, the faces of those two people clearly appeared in our sight.Tang Linlin was startled, and then jumped up, saying: "What the hell, these two are fakes!" Her words were pure nonsense, because when our two groups met, those two fakes were like dust , quickly disappeared without a trace.At the same time, the bright lights behind us seemed to go out suddenly, and only the flashlights in Tang Linlin and A'Zi's hands were left in an instant.

AhZi looked at us, her face was full of fear, her forehead was sweating, and she said, "So it's fake."

Tang Linlin said: "You, how did you get entangled by them? What are they? Could it be that this ghost ship also takes human form?"

Ah Zi said, "I was in this place as soon as I opened my eyes, and I met them not long ago. We also discussed to find other people together. By the way...there was no light in this place just now. As soon as they appeared, this place It lit up, and then they sent me to this place to find someone."

Tang Linlin was surprised; "Could it be that they deliberately let you meet us?"

Ah Zi wiped off her cold sweat and said, "It should be like this." She wiped off her sweat, and I found that she was holding a charm in her hand, which was obviously given to her by Zhou Xuanye at that time.Immediately, I was a little angry, and said: "Didn't I let you keep it under your tongue? Why did you take it out?"

AhZi was taken aback, then quickly put it back under her tongue, and said, "Don't mention it, I just took out what those two people bewitched me just now. Have you met anyone else?" I was about to answer, but I didn't speak yet. , Suddenly, in the darkness, there was a sudden sound of silk and bamboo, graceful and charming, and the sound came from behind the screen behind us.

The sound of the music was very low at first, and gradually became louder and louder. In the end, it was almost like a banquet, with drums and sheng, and people who listened wanted to dance to the music.This situation is really weird. Tang Linlin has a bad temper, probably because she was afraid in her heart. She swallowed her saliva and exploded. She turned around and kicked the screen down, cursing obscenities to embolden herself: "Auntie is not afraid. Well, what is playing tricks, let me out!"

Don't look at her slender arms and legs, but I know that this girl is actually pretty good, but she doesn't like to take risks, doesn't like to stand out, and doesn't like to give her strength for nothing, so she usually pretends to be cowardly and weak when encountering things, and let others do it. contribute.

Now she was irritated, and she didn't pretend to be cowardly anymore. She turned around and kicked, and the huge screen fell back with a bang. As the screen fell, within the range of our flashlight, I don't know when, unexpectedly There are more people.

That group of people is none other than the navigators.

At the moment, they all have their backs to us, so we identify them by their attire.These few people just happened to be standing on the carpet in the center. A few tall and thick old men danced gracefully in the darkness, accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo, twisting their waists and hips, and it was obviously an ancient dance.

In this situation, if it was normal, seeing a few burly men dancing the ancient dance with long sleeves and slender waist twisting their waists would definitely make people laugh out loud.But at this moment, we can’t laugh. The weird hallucinations and the pervasive sound of music seem to come from another time and space. This sense of disobedience does not make us feel funny, but makes the soles of our feet feel cold.

How did they suddenly appear?

No, maybe it wasn't all of a sudden, but they were always there, but we didn't notice it. The power of this ghost ship to confuse people cannot be completely eradicated by a magic awakening talisman.

The thick backs of the navigator and others danced slowly to the sound of the music, and at the end they turned around slowly with a spinning movement. Without exception, everyone's eyes were rigid, without any focus, and their faces The expressions on the table were also different. Obviously, they couldn't see us, and they danced a kind of dance with a strong sense of disobedience.

But simply, among these people, I did not see Zhou Xuanye, Tan Ren and Han Ba.

After kicking the screen, Tang Linlin was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her. She didn't know how to react. After a while, she asked me: "What should I do?"

I said: "Don't disturb them, go meet Tan Ren and the others."

Tang Linlin said: "Tell me, Zhou Huhu and the others, will they also be fascinated?"

I said: "It's unlikely, they have rich experience, even if they are blinded by ghosts, they should have a way to break free." Tang Linlin and I only know some basic methods, but Zhou Xuanye is not sure.

A Zi said: "You guys came up from below? Have you checked the two floors below?" Tang Linlin and I nodded, and A Zi said: "I came in from the back. Now it seems that only the front of the boat One is one we haven’t been to yet, look for it over there.”

"it is good."

Immediately, the three of us didn't care about the group of dancers. To be honest, this kind of atmosphere, coupled with the strange dancing posture and the body shape with a strong sense of disobedience, really makes people feel scalp numb and weird at a glance Yes, this place really makes people want to stay for a second.

The bow of the ship is not far from where we are. This place is divided into three parts. In the middle is the lobby for the party. There are also some spaces on the left and right, where people live and store food.Ah Zi said that she had already visited it before, so instead of searching left and right, we walked directly towards the bow of the ship.

It was dark outside, and there seemed to be a layer of gray mist in the air, which dimmed the light of the flashlight and narrowed the viewing range.

While walking, I called Zhou Xuanye's name.

The bow of the ship is the deck, which is usually very open. We passed all the way, and we didn’t see any obstacles. Soon, at the junction of light and darkness in front of us, we found a figure. The figure was very tall and cross-legged. Sitting where it was, it opened its eyes as soon as it came into contact with our light.

It's a drought.
