Chapter 7 Chapter 6 Attack of the Ghost Ship

In this sleep, I slept for a full twenty hours, and when I woke up again, I had already returned to normal. With the help of the nurse, I got up, and then I took a shower, had a meal, and my energy was very good. Although I still shuddered a little when I thought of the situation in the bottom of the sea, I was a person who had experienced many weird and absurd things after all. , can always bear it. Then, Mr. Moore came. He walked into the ward and said, "As soon as I received the news of your emergency landing, I immediately set off to see you. How are you?" I forced a smile: "It seems that I am fine, but that plane is over!"

Mr. Moore waved his hand: "Forget about that plane, what happened to you at the bottom of the sea?" I thought about it for a while and said, "Please calm down, and please believe every word I say!" Mr. Moya's expression was very serious, so I told what I saw on the bottom of the sea. After I finished speaking, his complexion became very ugly, he stood up without saying a word, and I said, "Do you think──" Mr. Moya abruptly interrupted me: "Forget it, if I had known this result, I wouldn't have agreed to let you go diving!" I was stunned for a while, but I immediately understood what he meant by saying that, and I couldn't help being very angry, and said loudly: "How about it, you don't believe what I said at all?"

Mr. Moya's attitude became a little more relaxed. He thought for a while before he said: "It's not that I don't believe it, but that I have been educated for decades, and I can't believe that what you said is the truth. I can only Believe-" He invited me here, paused, and I immediately said: "You can only believe in something, say it!" At that time, my attitude was naturally not very good, but Mr. Moya still maintained his demeanor: "Sir, it's all hallucinations, you dive too deep, people will have all kinds of hallucinations at the bottom of the sea! "

I said loudly, "I'd rather it all be hallucinations, but the light on my diving hood is broken, and the hood has been hammered indents, and I don't think the hallucinations have any actual effect." strength!" Mr. Moya immediately said: "The actual situation is that when you are hallucinating and you are bumping around, the hood will naturally be damaged when it hits some hard objects continuously." I sighed: "It's not that I hit something hard, but something hard touched my hood. That 'hard thing' is a hammer held in the hands of a big man!"

Mr. Moya stared at me without making a sound. His gaze made me feel extremely uncomfortable. I jumped up abruptly and shouted: "Don't look at me like a madman!" When I uttered this sentence, Mr. Moya shook suddenly, and I immediately knew why he was shaking, because in his heart, he really regarded me as a lunatic! After shaking for a while, he immediately turned his head away, and there was an embarrassing silence between us. After a while, he said: "Mr. Wei, what do you want me to do?" I said: "First, of course I have to go to the lunatic asylum and have an interview with your son. Second, I hope to use your financial resources to organize a seabed search team and make this mysterious matter known to the world!"

After hearing what I said, Mr. Moya smiled bitterly: "I'm really sorry, I can't consider these two requests!" I opened my mouth wide, as if it was difficult to breathe, and it took me a while to say something: "You won't even let me see him again?" Mr. Moore shook his head: "It's not that I won't let you see him, but, it's—" When he spoke here, he stopped abruptly. At that moment, I only felt that the wrinkles on his face deepened, and his complexion became gray, showing extremely deep sorrow. When I saw him in such a state, my body trembled. So he couldn't help trembling: "Captain, what's wrong with him?"

Mr. Moore turned around slowly, obviously he was trying to maintain his status, and he didn't want to show too much grief in front of someone I don't know very well.However, even if I couldn't see his expression, I could still hear his mourning in his voice. He said slowly: "On the second day after you left, the nurse went in and gave him food. He screamed and attacked the nurse. The nurse hit him on the head with a hammer in self-defense, and waited for the others to catch up. By that time, he had already been seriously injured, and a few hours later... died!" I stayed there listening, unable to speak a word.

Indeed, what can I say?I risked so much, and went through such a terrible experience at the bottom of the sea, in order to restore him when I found out the truth.However, he died! After staying for a long time, Mr. Moya turned around numbly: "Okay, let's treat him as a nightmare!" I have nothing to say, Mr. Moya has been hit like that, any words I say are superfluous! I stayed for a long time before I put my hand on his shoulder: "Mr. Moya, for you, this matter can be regarded as a nightmare, but I can't, I want to make this matter clear This is the only feasible way to prove that your son is an excellent navigator, and not the kind of mentally unsound person who can hallucinate casually on the sea surface or under the sea!"

Mr. Moore listened quietly without making a sound. I said again: "This is what your son cares about the most: his reputation. A person's life may end, but his reputation will last forever!" Mr. Moore sighed.I said again: "Of course, I will do it alone, and I won't trouble you again!" He sighed again and lowered his voice: "I express my deep sympathy for your words, but I hope you have a good rest and forget everything!" I pulled the corner of my mouth slightly, I wanted to force a helpless smile, but in the end, I couldn't smile even if I forced it, but I didn't agree with what he said, but it was fully revealed!

Mr. Moya wiped his face with his hands: "Human medicine is advanced, but there is no medicine that can forget one thing after taking it. Otherwise, I would rather forget that I have a son. Then, in the future, I will forget one thing." Days must be much easier to pass!" I stared at him closely: "Why don't you want to think about what I told you, what I saw in the bottom of the sea?" Mr. Moore shook his head.I took a few quick steps back and forth: "Perhaps, you and I go diving together, we wear weapons and cameras, and take pictures of the person in the water, or capture him alive?"

Mr. Moya looked at me, and after a while, he said: "Mr. Wei, you should take a good rest." After all, he still doesn't believe me at all! I lay down on the hospital bed, Mr. Moya said: "I'm really sorry, I'm too tired, too tired to do anything." I didn't say anything more. Indeed, Mr. Moya didn't want to do anything because of excessive grief. No matter how much I forced him to go diving, it was simply impossible. We faced each other in silence for a while before Mr. Moya said: "I'm leaving, I wish you good luck." I smiled wryly, and walked out with him. We passed the long corridor of the hospital. Although we didn't speak to each other, I think he, like me, must have the feeling that he doesn't want to break up. However, when he finally came to the gate of the hospital, he shook hands with me, then turned around, and I saw that he was about to get into the car. Suddenly, he turned around again and walked towards me in a hurry. He came to me: "There is one thing, maybe I want to tell you." I looked at him, and he said: "It's really a trick of luck, he was seriously injured after being hit on the head—" As soon as I heard him mention Captain Moore's death, I immediately felt that what he had to say to me must be of great importance, otherwise he would have been too sad to mention his son again without reason. I listened attentively, and Mr. Moya continued: "Ten seconds before he died, he was completely awake. I mean, when he woke up from the coma, he was not crazy!" I nodded hurriedly, and said, "It's a miracle, he was out of his mind, but after being hit hard, he returned to normal." Mr. Moya said: "Yes, but the time was too short, only a dozen seconds, and then his heart stopped beating!" I felt short of breath, and I hurriedly said, "He must have said something during that short time, didn't he? Otherwise, how would you know that his sanity has recovered?" Mr. Moya nodded: "Yes, he said a few words. At that time, several doctors and I were in front of him. He recognized me and called me in a weak voice. Then he said that the man beat me. It was very heavy for him, he knew that he would not be able to survive, and before I could tell him that the nurse should not be blamed, the nurse did it in self-defense, he died!" I was so nervous that I couldn't breathe, and said, "What did he say? He said someone kept hitting him on the head?" Mr. Moore said: "Yes, the nurse knocked on his head." I paused for a moment: "I have a different opinion than you about his last statement, Mr. Moore. I think he means that at the bottom of the sea, the man hit him with a hammer!" Mr. Moya immediately said sternly: "Mr. Wei, my son was very clear when he was dying. He recognized me as soon as he saw me!" As soon as Mr. Moya finished speaking, he immediately turned around and drove away, got into the car, and the car also drove away quickly! I stood blankly at the door. In an instant, I was completely sure that everything I encountered at the bottom of the sea was definitely not an illusion. The reason why I was so sure was naturally because of the words of Captain Moore when he was dying. This sentence, to anyone's ears, thought he was referring to the self-defense nurse, but I knew it meant something else. After Captain Moya wakes up, he will no longer remember what happened when he was insane, and the long period of time after the insanity will not leave a memory in his mind.When he woke up, he knew he had been hit on the head and was going to die. At that moment, all he could think of was the past, the time before he lost his mind. What I say is completely based on medical science.So, that is to say, before he lost his mind, someone hit him on the head with a hard object. Do you still have to doubt it?Captain Moya was attacked with a hammer by that unbelievable underwater man in the sunken ship on the bottom of the sea! This proves that there is indeed a person alive in the sunken ship, and this person lives in the water! I stood there for a long time, until the chill all over my body made me shiver, and then I slowly returned to the ward. For a person living in water, this is really incredible, but that is the fact that I have seen at the bottom of the sea. Although, up to now, only me, Merlon, and Captain Moore have seen this man, and two of them are already dead. If I tell this story, no one will believe me. However, as long as such a person really exists, things will be much simpler. Anyone who is willing to dive in this place and find the sunken ship can meet that person. The only problem is that if people don’t believe me, they won’t go diving with me. The best way is to show the world the photos of that person with an underwater camera. This is the best proof ! Thinking of this, I have made up my mind that I will go diving alone again, and meet that person again, and then, I will reveal this incredible secret. I was so refreshed that I left the hospital that day and moved into a hotel. At the same time, I made a long-distance call to inform my family to wire money for me. Within three days I was all ready, including the purchase of a serviceable boat, and I set out again to explore the same spot I had been twice before. When the boat reached its destination, it was already dark, and I decided to wait until tomorrow morning. That night, the sea was very calm, the moon was white and the wind was clear, and the hull of the boat was rocking gently. I originally wanted to have a good sleep, but I couldn't fall asleep on the bed. After tossing and turning for several hours, it was already midnight, I put on a dress, and went on deck. Fog began to appear on the sea surface, and the fog was gradually thickening. I sat down on the deck and lit a cigarette. As the fog gradually thickened, the air on the sea surface felt very humid, so when I was smoking , There was a slight sizzle sound on the smoke. There is fog on the sea surface, which means that there will be a sunny day after the fog clears at sunrise, which is helpful for my diving, and when I come, I have already calculated the correct position. The sunken ship may be on my ship The parking place is less than fifty meters away. When I thought of the daybreak, I could go into the water with the camera and capture the person in the sinking ship, my heart beat even harder, and I didn't feel sleepy at all. I smoked one cigarette, lit another, smoked three cigarettes in a row, the fog became thicker, and I suddenly heard a "mooring" sound on the nearby sea. I suddenly became tense. This kind of sound can be recognized as soon as I hear it. It is something moving in the sea water, which is made by shaking the sea water. I immediately stood up, judging the distance from the sound, the place where the sound came from would never be far away from me.However, the fog was so thick that I couldn't see anything, looking ahead, it was just a vast expanse of whiteness. And that sound continued, not only from the front, but also from the left and right. I became very nervous, and suddenly, I remembered this sound, and it was not the first time I heard it! When the "Maori" was sailing, Captain Moore once woke me and Mellon and told us to listen quietly. That time, the fog on the sea was as thick as it is now. However, that time, the sound sounded far away, but this time, the sound came very close.I turned in a panic in the three directions where the sound came from, and I didn't know what impulse it was, so I yelled loudly and asked, "Who is it!" I yelled hoarsely, seven or eight times, the sound of water was gradually approaching, and suddenly, I saw something! It was an ancient sailing ship, hitting my ship head-on at a fairly high speed! It was really a sudden accident. When the ship suddenly rushed through the thick fog and appeared in front of me, it was only about 30 meters away from my ship. stay. Then, I thought, it was only two seconds at most, and I saw the forward half of the ship again, with its tall mast. At the same time, I heard a terrible laugh from above the bow, and I saw that person immediately!The man was lying on top of a pile of cables, with his mouth wide open, smiling at me. I recognize him, he is the one who attacked me with a hammer in the cabin of the sunken ship! I staggered back, and just as I got out of the hatch, I saw, one to the left and one to the right, two other ships of the same type approaching, with the same emblem of coiled sea monsters on the bows ! Three ghost ships! Now, I completely believe Captain Moa's words! Captain Moya's ship changed its course in order to avoid the impact of the three ghost ships, which finally caused the tragedy of the shipwreck.When Captain Moa told me about this passage, I refused to believe it anyway, and tried to explain it with various "scientific" viewpoints. But I don't need any explanation now, because I saw these three ghost ships myself! Moreover, my situation was even worse than when Captain Moya met the ghost ship that day. As soon as he saw the ghost ship, he could immediately order to change the course to avoid them, but now, I cannot do so. I'm not saying that I don't have a chance to do this. If I have enough composure, when the oncoming ship breaks through the thick fog and suddenly appears, I may run back to the cabin immediately, start the engine and escape of. But I don't have the composure. When I found the first ship coming out of the thick fog suddenly, I was completely stunned. The two ships that came, I froze at the hatch, unable to move. Three ships collided with my ship, and I could see clearly that they were three big three-masted ships, and I could also hear the man on the oncoming ship making a strange and mournful laugh. At this moment, my mind was extremely clear, but my body couldn't move because of the excessive shock. I watched the bows of the three boats, braving the waves, crashing towards my boat. And at that moment, what I thought was a very ridiculous idea, I was thinking, these three ships are ghost ships, ghost ships are things that can be seen but do not actually exist, just like shadows The same, although they ran into my boat fiercely, but in fact, they are like three huge shadows, they can't hurt me, they are almost passing by, and they are about to pass through my boat Yes, I was just a false alarm. At this time, I thought this way, which proves that my nerves have been tense to the point where I have overturned my usual belief in science, and I have reached the point where I unreservedly believe in the existence of ghost ships. This proves that my nerves have already begun. It's a little messed up! I just remember that when the three ghost ships got closer to my ship, all their movements seemed to slow down suddenly, just like the slow motion in a movie. The three boats continued to rush towards my boat. The waves stirred up by the bows were as beautiful as flowers, slowly rising, spreading, and falling, and then there was a huge sound. The splashing waves have already landed on the deck of my ship, and the three ships are getting closer. Although their approach seems to be slow, they have no intention of stopping at all. The closer they are, the closer the three ships are. , The emblem on the ship is like a three-sided shield, trying to pinch me to death. The ghost ship that I was expecting to "pass" through my ship didn't happen, instead I heard a "chucking" sound. My ship, like an egg caught in three rocks, was smashed into pieces in an instant. At the last moment, I only had time to scream before losing consciousness.Before I lost consciousness, there seemed to be a huge wave that hit me and drenched my whole body, but I don't remember much. I don't know how long it took before I became conscious again. The moment I regained consciousness, I heard a buzzing voice, but I couldn't hear what those people were talking about. I even Before I opened my eyes, a strange fear shook my whole body. It was an indescribable sense of fear. I seemed to be back on the surface of the sea again. In the middle of the night and in the thick fog, there were three ghost ships , bumped towards me. I seemed to see those three ship badges again, the man with the weird smile, I was really scared, extremely scared, I wanted to hide, I wanted to hide! I suddenly felt that someone was pushing my shoulder, which made me scream immediately, and I opened my eyes. I saw many people in front of me, but I couldn't recognize who they were at all. I just feel strangely bright, and I hate the bright, I need the dark, the dark can be used for me to hide! While screaming, I pushed away a person in front of me. Then, I jumped up and rushed forward. I seemed to have bumped into many things, and I heard many people's shouts until my body, Hitting a hard object that cannot be pushed. I still couldn't find the darkness, but I needed the darkness. I instinctively covered my eyes with my hands, so that I finally got the temporary darkness again, but I was still screaming and running around. I felt that many things were hindering me, as if the monsters in the emblems of the three ships had been resurrected, and they were entangled with my long, slippery tentacles full of suckers. body. I just know that I need to struggle like hell, I have to struggle with every ounce of my strength, I can't be entangled by them, I can't be dragged to the bottom of the sea by them, I can't survive in the sea, I'm a land People on the sea, they are people in the sea! During my struggle, the strength was so great that several times, my body was already very relaxed, but the shackles of even greater strength followed. I screamed, struggled, and covered my eyes with my hands until suddenly In the meantime, I was unconscious again and passed out.
