after marrying stepbrother

1069 Slaughter
1069 Slaughter
After the captain was killed, the atmosphere on board was very tense, and everyone fell into panic.

The ship sailed slowly on the sea, but no one mentioned the matter of overloading anymore. It looked harmonious on the surface, but in fact it was the calm before the storm.

"When we first got on the boat, we often got together to talk and laugh."

Those who can take this trip have a deep understanding of what this trip means, and they are likely to deviate, encounter strong winds and be buried at the bottom of the sea, never to return.

For money and for a better life, everyone is desperate, but everyone is optimistic and always takes chances.

Unexpectedly, a few days away, there will be a murder case.

Brother Lu still couldn't figure out who killed the old captain, and besides, he didn't trust the stabbing head very much.

"Brother, a hundred or so of you boarded the boat, and now only a dozen or so have come back, so the rest..."

Big Brother Lu just said the beginning, and Carpenter Lu already felt thrilled. On the sea, surrounded by water, if something unexpected happens, there is no room for maneuver.

Far away from Daqi, in the deep sea area, there are not even fishermen. Even if they use planks to float and save themselves, if they encounter a big wave, they will be thrown into the water immediately.

"All dead."

Brother Lu fell into deep silence upon hearing this.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a while, and the old captain took over the conversation. That is, after that time, he was elected as the new captain because he was the oldest.

"And then, did this happen again?"

Sailing on the sea for a long time gives people a sense of oppression.

People who go out to sea have long looked down on life and death, and they just have a fluke mentality of getting rich. In a relatively high-pressure environment, quarrels and conflicts are prone to occur between people, which infinitely magnifies people's inferiority. thing to come.

Lin Yuesha estimated that after someone on board was killed, there should be another massacre.

"Yes, it happened again."

The memory was like a nightmare. Brother Lu closed his eyes and said again, "After the death of the captain, everyone seemed to have no friction, but in fact, we no longer eat together."

At the beginning of the journey, they agreed that there would be a dedicated cook on board.

Fatty, the cook, is related to the captain. After the captain disappeared, Fatty became taciturn and often hid in the back kitchen, wondering what he was doing.

Brother Lu was thirsty in the middle of the night, so he went to the back kitchen to fetch water and saw the fat man sharpening his knife.

"The fat man has gloomy eyes. I guess he wants to avenge the captain."

Brother Lu didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and when he got back to the cabin, he closed the door tightly, very panicked.

On the second day, another familiar face disappeared. This time, everyone became more silent, and no one even mentioned it.

Secretly, Stab found them again and told Brother Lu that the missing person was killed by the fat man and thrown into the sea.

He got up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, and saw the sea was red, with a strong smell of blood, guessing that the person died in a miserable state.

Those who remained were suspicious of each other, divided into factions, and began to form small groups, fearing that they would be left alone and isolated.

Those with a guilty conscience were afraid that the fat man would poison their food, so they asked to cook by themselves, and Big Brother Lu also took over part of the work, taking care of the meals for him and the stab head and a dozen others.

After traveling for a period of time, it has not rained, the fresh water on board is getting less and less, and the firewood and charcoal in reserve have bottomed out.

At this juncture, contradictions reappeared, and mutual dissatisfaction intensified.

"Everyone hated each other for using too much water and firewood. Because of the lack of supplies, the two groups fought."

More than a dozen people on one side fought on the deck to vent their dissatisfaction. In the end, someone was irritated and ran to the back kitchen and snatched the fat man's knife.

The eyes of the two sides were red, and they wanted to let the other party die quickly, and neither of them would stop. The person who persuaded was stabbed twice and died unexpectedly.

Seeing this, Brother Lu quickly hid in the cabin, blocked the door with a bed and other things, and sighed.

At that time, he felt that he had fallen into hell, which was already very bad.

Frightened and helpless, he even wanted to jump off the ship, and jumping off the ship at this time was tantamount to courting death.

"Brother, before reaching the outer sea, they killed each other like this. How many people did they die?"

Carpenter Lu was worried when he heard this, and asked with his hands tightly covering his chest.

"Listen to me."

When there was no sound on the deck, Carpenter Lu did not dare to go out. It happened that in the cabin he had brought dry pancakes from home and the water he had stored in advance, which was enough for a few days.

This is the most correct decision he made, otherwise he would definitely not survive.

"Yeah, thanks to your elder brother's cleverness, seeing the fat man sharpening his knife that night, he felt something was wrong. Your elder brother secretly went to the back kitchen to fill water, and then stored it in the cabin."

Before boarding the boat, the rest of the people brought rice noodles and other things. Only Brother Lu brought a few large bags of dry and hard pancakes made of wild vegetables for emergencies. In the end, he saved his life at a critical moment.

On the second day, after there was no movement on the deck, they did not leave the cabin, but continued to hide.

After a while, there were screams outside the cabin.

The fat man killed the stabbing head like a madman, and he attacked anyone who went out to look for water with a knife.

Fatty killed dozens of people, and in the end he couldn't take it anymore and collapsed, so he jumped into the sea and committed suicide.

A few days later, the smell of blood became stronger, and there was a deathly silence outside the cabin.

After drinking the water in the cabin, Brother Lu had no choice but to leave the cabin, only then did he realize that there were corpses all over the deck, one of them still had a faint breath, and it was the last person Fatty killed, who had witnessed everything.

Although Brother Lu saved the man, the man didn't stand up.

After a massacre, there were only a dozen or so survivors on board.

Most of them were timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and kept avoiding. Some of them were not as well-prepared as the Lu family and his son, and even fainted from hunger.

The ship continued to sail on the sea, encountered strong winds and waves, and almost capsized.

There have been several heavy rains in the past few days, and the blood on the deck has been washed away. Except for the sudden drop in the number of people, nothing else seems to have happened.

Everyone gathered together, and for the first time, they were honest with each other and spoke their minds.

The future is uncertain, maybe they will disappear at sea sooner or later, so it is better to work together and continue to the open sea.

During this period, Brother Lu thought about returning to the voyage, but everyone voted and finally chose to continue.

"When we came, there were more than 100 people. We went back not long ago. More than half of the people were missing. How should we explain it?"

Everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward. Who knows, they disappeared for six or seven years.

"Father, brother, I have been waiting for news from you in the fishing village a few years ago, and I always had illusions, but in the past few years, I have noticed that the hope is getting slimmer, and I even accept this reality."

Carpenter Lu was very sad. After he was in despair, his father and elder brother came back without warning.
