Chapter 61: People Hate Dogs and Dislike Mei Guanren (Part 2)

"The Dragon King is angry."

The shipowner repeated this sentence over and over again, and began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to find things. After a while, he took out the incense candles and placed them in the cockpit to worship.

Pray to the Dragon King for forgiveness and the Empress to bless you...

Mei Qian looked at the sailors kneeling on the ground piously, feeling a little embarrassed standing aside.

I heard that people who live by the sea believe in these gods the most, and they may be really efficacious.

I have carried it home during this period, why don't I also kowtow and say goodbye?

Just as he was thinking wildly, his arm was pulled by someone. When he turned his head, he saw Ning Chi winking at him.

Mei Qian followed the other person's gaze and couldn't help but tighten her skin, a chill running down her heels to the top of her head.

I saw a huge and towering shadow standing outside the yacht at some point, looking like a mountain or an island.

It wasn't until a bolt of lightning flashed across that the tall ship's side was clearly visible.

"Really, is it really a ghost ship?" Ning Chi swallowed in disbelief.

His business was not big, but he just happened to disturb the crew members who were bowing down. When they saw the scene outside, they all exclaimed in surprise.

After that, everyone's reaction was different. Some stood up in panic but fell to the ground with weak legs. Some were shaking like chaff and closed their eyes and silently recited something. Some even more piously hit their heads on the ground and shouted to the empress for help.

He was suspicious just now, but now Mei Qian was calmer. He stepped out of the cockpit in two steps, held on to the railing, and looked directly at the huge ship that suddenly appeared silently.

Standing outside, the view is wider, and you can feel the hugeness of the ship better. What is even more weird is that the ship comes from nowhere and arrives next to the yacht, but it does not move, as if it is pulled by some kind of force, always in the waves.

Keep parallel to the yacht under your feet.

As if it did not exist in this world, the ship was completely silent, with no sound and no lights. The height of the ship's side was more than twice as high as the yacht beneath it.

Especially at this time, the two ships were only a few meters apart. Just one glance at its size would make one feel a sense of oppression, making people feel numb all over.

It was not only the pressure of the big against the small, but also the intimidation of some unknown force to the flesh and blood creatures.

After observing for a moment, Mei Qian's sudden fear completely disappeared.

Since he had the real thing in front of him, there was nothing to be afraid of. He had already visited ancient tombs, so why was he afraid of "ghost ships"?

In fact, legends of ghost ships have been around for a long time in all sea areas. Even in modern times, they still happen from time to time.

Why do they disappear and why do they appear? How unmanned vehicles navigate and where they usually hide are all unsolved mysteries.

If you think about it this way, doesn't it feel strange at all?

How strange!

This is a ghost ship. How many people can take a look at it in their lifetime?

At this time, another bolt of lightning flashed across, followed by a loud rumble from the sky, fearing that a storm was coming.

Mei Qian listened carefully, and in addition to the howling wind, he could also vaguely hear the subtle rustling sound coming from the opposite ship. Could it be the sound of the wind blowing across the ship's planks?

I looked around intently, but unfortunately I didn't find anything.

As for the unfamiliar letters on the side of the bow, he didn't recognize any of them.

Ning Chi also followed, holding on to the fence like him. He said something at first, but his voice was immediately lost in the howling wind.

But Mei Qian heard clearly what the other person was saying: "Go up and have a look, maybe someone needs help."

I glanced at him sideways, and I didn't know whether it was the last trip to the ancient tomb that activated this guy's adventurous cells, or his sense of justice. At this moment, I felt that the other party was ready to make a move.

"Do you know those words?" Mei Qian quickly took out a tactical flashlight and shined it on the bow of the ship, shouting.

Ning Chi looked along the light beam and shook his head at first: "I can't tell the difference either." He paused for a moment, frowned again, and said loudly: "This ship looks very new, there is no rust at all, is it out of date?"

What happened by itself?"

"This is Nidhi, and this is a cruise ship from Nidhi. For some reason, it drifts with the wind to the coast of Xia Kingdom."

At this time, a hoarse voice sounded from behind.

Mei Qian had known that someone was approaching, and when he turned around, he saw that it was indeed the ship owner who had finished the worship service.

It's just different from the panic before. Now the other party seems to have calmed down, but his face is still very tight and his voice is trembling.

"Why don't we go up and have a look. Maybe the crew members on the ship have encountered difficulties and need help." Ning Chi expressed his opinion while making gestures.

"No, this is a ghost ship. There must be something ominous on it. I'm afraid there are no living people left." But the ship owner shook his head and refused loudly: "A storm is coming. What if something goes wrong?"

This was true. The yacht was getting bumpier and bumpier, and waves were already crashing on the deck. Although they were standing high, their legs were already wet from the splashing waves.

The safest thing to do is to stay in the cabin, which is the safest way.

Since the opinions were not unanimous, they returned to the cockpit. Although they still felt top-heavy, it was much cleaner after all.

Mei Qian glanced at the trembling crew members and shook his head at Ning Chi: "There is indeed no one. There is no sound of any activity above." Mei Qian did not intend to care about this matter. He was so unlucky, what could he have encountered?

Strange things are not impossible.

But the rustling sound on the opposite side keeps on coming, what on earth is that?

Ning Chi could only calm down. He trusted Mei Qian's hearing. Since there was no sound of movement, there must be no one alive.

Seeing that they had given up the idea of ​​boarding the ghost ship, the boat owner let out a sigh of relief. You must know that the person who chartered the boat was a celebrity. He had seen photos in the news. If this person had something wrong with him, it would definitely be...

trouble.

Just as he was about to arrange for a few people to rest in the cabin below, Mei Qian's expression suddenly changed.

Ning Chi had been paying attention to him, and couldn't help but become nervous when he saw him like this, and asked hurriedly: "What? What did you find out again?"

Mei Qian listened carefully, and there was clearly a pleasant ringtone coming from the cruise ship: "It seems to be the sound of a mobile phone."

"Is there anyone alive?" Ning Chi stood up straight: "How about I go up and Brother Qian will provide support below?"

"Let's go together!" Mei Qian pondered for a few seconds and immediately nodded to Ning Chi. Anyway, the yacht is out of order now. Rather than stay and play with the trampoline, it is better to go and take a look.

Hey! This damn curiosity...

The shipowner didn't allow it. Not only did he hold the two of them tightly, but he also called on the crew to force them into the cabin below.

Ning Chi tried hard to talk, but the other party still didn't let go. He glanced at Mei Qian, suddenly rolled his eyes, and whispered into the ship owner's ear: "I suspect that the failure of the yacht's instruments is related to this ghost ship. Are you not afraid of being so close?"

Soon, the ghost ship will take us all away, and no one will be able to survive by then." At the end of the sentence, his tone became gloomy.

As expected, the ship owner showed hesitation. Ning Chi saw this and became more enthusiastic: "Who is my eldest brother? Mei Qian, the master of tomb robberies, I have never seen any big scenes. This ghost ship is nothing. Even if there is something on it,

I guarantee that he will treat me docilely. You have to choose, either wait for death or fight."

Their voices were very soft, but Mei Qian could hear them, and she couldn't help but twitch her mouth when she heard them.

He really doesn't want this assistant.

But facing the look from the ship owner, he had to straighten his chest and pretend as if nothing had happened.

In fact, if he really wanted to board the ghost ship, he wouldn't be able to keep the people in front of him. But these people are ordinary people with good intentions and cannot use force. If Ning Chi can convince these crew members, that would be great.

It seemed that the ship owner was persuaded by Ning Chi. He nodded to the three crew members who were holding the two of them, and said, "Wait a moment." Then he started rummaging around in the cabin.

After a while, he found an ancient long knife.

"The two of us go up, and you just wait for support below." Ning Chi said with some emotion.

Unexpectedly, the ship owner put the knife into his hand, took out a small pendant from his arms and handed it to Mei Qian, and said solemnly: "Be careful when you get up, I will definitely bless you. If the storm is over and communications are restored, you still won't come down.

, I will call for support as soon as possible.”

Ning Chi: "..."

It is not difficult to board the ghost ship, because the uppermost level of the yacht is not very high from the deck of the ghost ship, especially for Mei Qian, it is easier.

I asked the ship owner for a rope, tied a heavy object to one end, and hung it on the side of the ship with a swing. Then Mei Qian climbed onto the deck with the strength of his hands, and pulled Ning Chi up.

The deck is empty and there are no containers, so you can see the cabin at a glance. This is where the countless rustling sounds and strange ringing sounds come from.

The two of them approached quickly, and Ning Chi was on full alert with his sword in hand.

But as soon as the cabin door was opened, a strong stench greeted us.

"Corpse stench!" Mei Qian's pupils shrank slightly. This smell reminded him of the mass graves in Dongshan's underground ruins.

Ning Chi's expression also changed, and he held the knife in his hand tighter...
