boss take me to death

Chapter 48 Mermaid 2

The dark sea is the same color as the sky.

A ship in the dark night is so insignificant that it cannot be compared to a grain of sand.

Yu Xi sat in the room, leaning against the window, glancing at the rolling clouds from time to time.

Of course, the wind that can send such a large ship to its destination cannot belong to any mild weather.

But that's not what worries him the most.

He used to be from a good family and read a lot of books, because he lived in the coastal area and studied meteorology.

The books he had read recorded the ocean currents and climate in this sea area, and he himself was good at observation, so he could judge that the coming storm would not cause too serious consequences.

"Maybe it's still a good thing." He said to himself: "In such weather, even if there are traces of omissions, they will be cleared away, and it should not be caught up by it."

The "it" in Yu Xi's mouth is what he is really worried about now.

In just a few breaths, two crew members were buried in the mouth of "it", which is enough to make people shudder.

Facing an enemy with great disparity in strength, a person may think of revenge, but in the face of an unknown threat, there is no other way but to escape.

Because of the fear in my heart, because of the desire to quit, because I have lost the capital to fight against it.

This is also the reason why the crew members move so fast.

Yu Xi actually felt that she was not attracted by that mysterious power.

After the incident, he thought that the mermaid could let people do what it wanted without anyone noticing, and humans would not notice afterwards.

But Yu Xi asked other crew members, and they said that they couldn't remember why they walked to the side of the boat, and they couldn't remember how they got to the bed, which was different from Yu Xi's situation.

He clearly remembered that he went to the beach because he wanted to vomit.

But even so, he has no way to rest assured, so what if he can control himself, as long as he meets the black-tailed mermaid, his little fighting power is not enough.

"Don't meet me!" He was praying when he heard singing suddenly.

The singing is melodious, kind of indescribably nice.

Moreover, the sound does not seem to be transmitted through the air, and the sound of the turbulent waves cannot affect it at all.

It passed directly into Yu Xi's mind without a trace of noise.

Yu Xi heard it, but she was not too much affected.

He suddenly realized that the singing came from a mermaid.

According to ancient legends, mermaids will confuse people's minds with beautiful songs, and then drag people into the water and drown them at the bottom of the sea.

But the captain told Yu Xi that the mermaids would never sing before coming, they would just quietly lurk beside the boat, waiting for the right time to destroy the hull.

Solve human beings with the least effort.

Of course, it would be the most labor-saving way if human beings could throw themselves into the trap.

So Yu Xi guessed that most mermaids have lost that ability, but only most of them.

For example, what I encountered during the day today probably still retains that kind of power.

It...maybe it's not far from the ship right now.

Although Yu Xi himself was not bewitched, the other crew members certainly couldn't, so he chose to go out and have a look.

If someone couldn't help going towards the side of the boat, he could stop it.

But after going out, he found that Nuo Da's deck was alone, empty and deserted.Except for the night watch crew, everyone else is still asleep.

He suddenly thought: It can't be that it won't be affected if you fall asleep!

However, the lights in several important control rooms are still on, and they should be awake, but they didn't respond, as if they didn't hear anything.

Yu Xi thought about it, just now the singing seemed to be directly transmitted to the brain, it seems that it is not just like, but this kind of singing is directional.

He looked around, but he saw only the dark sea, not the black fish.

The headlights of the boat were not turned on, and human eyesight is not very good, so Yu Xi knew that even if the mermaid was nearby, she would not be able to see it.

Anyway, it has no intention of hurting anyone for the time being, maybe it is full and has not been digested, so Yu Xi plans to go back to find the captain.

"You are really special!"

Yu Xi heard a voice, just like the singing just now, it appeared directly in her mind.

Behind him came the sound of planks being knocked.

Such a slight voice should have been covered by the sound of the tide, but Yu Xi heard it clearly. When he turned his head, he saw a man with a handsome appearance that was almost demonic by the side of the boat.

He seems to be leaning on the window sill of his own house, with a relaxed expression, as if he will take out a book or a cup of tea in the next moment, his movements are elegant and gentlemanly.

But he was shirtless, and his muscular torso was still wet.

Anyway, more like a hooligan than a gentleman.

Of course, just think about it.

This is neither a hooligan nor a gentleman, but a man-eating monster, a mermaid who preys on human life.

If caught, they should have teeth marks all over their bodies.

Yu Xi didn't dare to stay, and turned around to go back to the house. At least there was a gun in the house, so she could barely protect herself.

"What's the hurry?" Another voice rang directly in his head: "If you run away, I will eat other people!"

"Eat it all in one sitting!" he added.

Although it was doubtful whether it had such a appetite, Yu Xi didn't dare to bet and could only stop.

If all people die, the return journey is simply impossible, regardless of the moral impact.

He could only stop, not far from the mermaid, and moved a few steps closer according to his request.

The mermaid was still dissatisfied: "What are you doing so far away? Come here again! Don't be so nervous, I don't eat people."

Yu Xi poked her neck a little closer, complaining wildly in her heart: "You don't eat people? You ate two in front of me, okay! Shut up if you don't know how to speak human words!"

The mermaid didn't think it was close enough, so he turned over and climbed onto the boat. The two-meter-long fish tail propped him up high, and the sense of oppression doubled instantly!

He looked down at Yu Xi for a while, then suddenly bent down again, putting his head close to Yu Xi's fragile throat.

Yu Xi thought he was going to bite it off, but he just sniffed it suddenly, and his attitude became intimate.

"So that's how it is! Sure enough, you won't be under my control."

The fins on Heiwei's back and arms opened and closed, feeling very good, and invited Yu Xi: "Why don't you follow me, I will treat you very well!"

Yu Xi thought: Do you think I don't know the spare dry food!

But he thought about it and came up with a slightly less blunt way to say no.He said: "Actually, I'm not used to eating seafood, and I'm not suitable for living at sea."

His refusal was within Heiwei's expectations, and Heiwei didn't intend to force it.

After clarifying the doubts in my heart, it doesn't matter if you take your time for the rest.

"Let's play a game!" Heiwei said: "The sea is empty, and there is nothing to bet on. Just bet on whether you can catch the mermaid this year. During this time, I promise not to trouble you, and I will not interfere with what you do. If you have to leave in the end and still have nothing to gain, you will belong to me, and you are not allowed to show any reluctance."

Yu Xi said hello repeatedly, and said good night cordially, and politely invited Heiwei to leave.

Then got up early the next day to tell the captain about it.

Although he was so terrified that he finally fell asleep and had another night of nightmares, he decided to talk about it the next day.

On the one hand, it is because everyone is resting and shouting forcibly, everyone will be in a bad mood, which is not a good thing.

And the light is not good at night, even if everyone is awake, it is useless.

Of course, Yu Xi still needs some time to think about the credibility of the mermaid's words.

The storm came earlier than Yu Xi imagined, and she fell asleep in a daze near dawn, but it was not fully dawn, and she was awakened by the rickety boat again.

When he woke up, he didn't expect to fall asleep again, so he went to find the captain.

After discussion, both of them decided not to mention this matter.

The storm has arrived, and the course cannot be changed. If the matter is disclosed to the crew, it will only bring more fear.

Heiwei's words may not be credible, but after at least one night, he did not attack again.

At least as far as the current situation is concerned, it is beneficial to the human side that he proposed such a condition.

Black Tail probably won't show up on its own initiative, so the most suitable method at the moment is to let the storm send them to the mermaid colony, make some repairs before leaving.

The matter was settled in this way. On this day, Yu Xi was very restless.

The boat shook violently all the time, and he became more seasick, but he couldn't vomit because he hadn't eaten anything.

Because of the heavy rain and the high waves, even the strongest crew members would not reach the deck.

Yu Xi couldn't do it anymore.

Although he really wanted to go to the bed to see if the black-tailed mermaid was following him, but he was afraid that if someone walked to the side of the boat, a wave would hit him, and he would rest in peace before the bet was over.

He has been sitting in the house, but his heart and eyes belong to the sea.

He stared at the ferocious waves, and painted a picture in his mind: the tall black-tailed mermaid was like a small shrimp in front of the sea. The long brown hair was knotted and even stuck together in strands.

He thought for a while, then suddenly woke up from his hallucination.

That terrifying creature was born to belong to the sea, how could it be so embarrassing in the sea?

Instead of wasting your brain power on it, worry about yourself.

This place is not far from the marked mermaid colony. Judging by the speed and the thickness of the clouds, the destination can be reached before dark.

But it is not certain whether the ship can stop.

If the weather is not suitable, you must start the engine in advance, and when you are still a distance away from the colony, shift 30 to 45 degrees along the direction to avoid the mermaid colony.

Thinking about it, Yu Xi took out the logbooks of each fleet.There are pictures in the logs, some marked the weather laws, and some marked the areas where mermaids are active. With these things, many dangers can be avoided by operating at sea.

It's just... such a thing shouldn't be in his hands.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Black Tail: If you are caught, you will definitely be bitten with teeth marks all over your body.
