Chapter 142: Wheel/Plate at Sea (20)
Su Chen made a very soft "thump" sound, but Su Yue pretended not to hear it.
Cang Zhi did hear it, but he pretended not to hear it and looked at Su Yue in a daze.
Su Yue is a very handsome type, and usually gives people the impression that he doesn't have many edges and corners, but now he does, because there is a lot of murderous intent in his eyes, and at times like this, he looks particularly sharp.
There was a kind of attraction that was very different from usual, but also very familiar to Cang Zhi.
"Why are you daydreaming? Get to work." Su Yue didn't even look at him. He hooked a wooden barrel with his toes and threw it like a football, easily dropping it into Cang Zhi's hands.
On the other side of the wall, Hai Ke let out an angry howl and staggered to his feet again.
Cang Zhi: “…Oh.”
Although the combined attack of Su Yue and Cang Zhi just now knocked Hai Ke away, it seemed that no substantial damage was caused. Now Hai Ke regained his spirit, swung his tail, and rolled towards the new passerby.
Su Yue and Cang Zhi had a tacit understanding. One rushed forward to pull the people away, while the other picked up the bucket and continued to beat Haike.
It wasn't to save people. After all, the target that Haike just rolled was an NPC. It was because Su Yue had a feeling that Haike fed on humans. If it succeeded in eating a human, it might recover a lot of blood.
As an excellent player, Su Yue deeply understands that interrupting the boss's health recovery is the rule of all boss battles.
The seafarer was not only big in size, but also had thick skin and flesh, and it exuded a strange fragrance.
Upon closer inspection, it was a strong smell of the sea, but this unpleasant smell was strangely pleasant on it, even having a bewitching effect. It might be the source of the thick fog.
Fortunately, Hai Ke was not very agile on land, and could only be beaten by Cang Zhi. Every time Cang Zhi hit it with a bucket, it let out a painful howl and was chased all over the ground by Cang Zhi, but its health bar was very thick, and it could not die even though it was beaten black and blue.
During this period, Haike wanted to roll up a person and eat him many times, but each time he was resolved just right by Suyue. He could not eat the person and could not recover his strength. The strange fragrance on his body was gradually fading.
The strange aroma faded, and the thick fog in the air also faded. Those who had been eating with their plates in their arms now stood there in a daze, not continuing to eat, with confused expressions on their faces.
Cangzhi's final blow was aimed squarely at Haike's "face." Of course, Haike didn't really have a face, just a big mouth, but Cangzhi's blow knocked out all its teeth.
Haike let out another extremely shrill howl, the sound was so loud that Su Yue felt his eardrums were pierced and the walls of the house were shaking. The next second, Haike soared into the air!
It swung its tail vigorously in the air, turned its body in the air, and dived headfirst.
The floor was knocked through with a "crash", leaving only a big hole. The seafarer's figure disappeared. Su Yue leaned over to take a look and saw sea water gurgling out of the big hole.
Let it run away.
But the key point is——
"Let's go!" Su Yue reacted immediately.
He first pulled Su Chen, and then went to pull the other players who were still in a daze in the room. Cang Zhi followed closely behind. The two of them pulled people separately, and Su Chen followed to help. Soon the man in sunglasses also started pulling people.
Soon all the players were moved outside the wooden house. Almost at the same time, the wooden house began to tilt rapidly. As the white fog outside dissipated, the wooden house slowly sank into the sea in the night.
Yes, this is actually a wooden house on the sea.
If Su Yue had not reacted immediately, all the players might have been buried at the bottom of the sea along with the wooden house.
"Oh my god." Su Chen was still terrified. "Is this room a complete illusion?"
"Not necessarily. It might be on a floating object," said Su Yue.
"But if we hadn't left just now, everyone would have sunk together." Cang Zhi said.
Su Yue looked at Cang Zhi in surprise.
The way he said this sounded as if Cangzhi was taking credit for Suyue.
Speaking of this, Su Yue suddenly remembered something.
He looked in the direction of the cabin.
.
The hut was sinking, and on the stormy night, it sank just like any other ship would sink. First one corner sank, then the tilted whole was slowly and completely submerged by the sea, finally being buried at the bottom of the sea.
At this moment, the wooden house had sunk to the point where only one corner remained. The other NPCs showed no reaction, as if they were still intoxicated in the seafarer's mist. Only one NPC was clinging to the railing in that corner, with an expression of "I'm so anxious" on his skull, struggling in vain.
...No one cares about the Skeleton Captain.
At this moment, the Skeleton Captain happened to look up and saw Su Yue and others who were watching the excitement with their arms folded. He immediately began to wave his arms frantically trying to get rescued. When he was sure that it was Su Yue who was looking at him from afar with a smile, he suddenly couldn't wave his arms anymore and he hugged the railing of the boat dejectedly.
Su Yue also waved to the captain.
Skeleton Captain: “…”
The cabin finally sank, and the poor skeleton captain sank with him. As he sank, he was still shouting, "Help... Gulu... Life... Gulu."
Su Yue shouted happily: "Bye~!"
——
After the wooden house sank, the fog completely dissipated. Only then did the players realize that the place where they were anchored was not a port at all, but a completely deserted island. There was not even a few blades of grass, and the ground was covered with gravel and broken stones.
I don’t know what the plank road and sailors I just saw are.
But thinking back on it makes me break out in a cold sweat.
As for what the food the players had just desperately stuffed into their stomachs was, it was even more uncertain.
When someone thought of this, his face turned pale, he bent over and retched desperately, and soon vomited, leaving a mess of seaweed tangled with sand and gravel all over the floor.
Everyone vomited at once, the scene became extremely disgusting, and Su Yue felt terrible.
He was very sure that the wine he drank was real wine, and he also knew that there was something wrong with the food he ate, but the scene in front of him was still a bit heavy. He silently changed his perspective and looked at the sea.
Cang Zhi came over and stood side by side with him, and as if by coincidence, stood between Su Yue and the vomiting players.
The sea in the storm was not as crazy as imagined, and it was even unusually calm.
The ghost ship "The Saint" is anchored in a corner of a deserted island, its tattered sails fluttering in the wind. It will carry passengers to the legendary Moonlight Island.
Everyone returned to the boat. Since they hadn't eaten anything today, a few players spontaneously fished and cooked, making the familiar steamed fish fillets and potatoes.
There was no problem of not having enough food today, and everyone had a full meal.
Everyone knew that once the ship officially entered the waters of Moonlight Island, it meant that the game had entered its final chapter, and no one dared to relax.
"Go to bed early, everyone," someone spontaneously organized. "Close your doors tightly at night. No matter what noise you make, don't come out easily. Watch out for Haike. We'll meet here again tomorrow morning."
The players all agreed with this suggestion and were about to disperse when Su Yue choked on a potato and coughed twice.
The whole place fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked at him respectfully.
Su Yue: "..."
"I don't have anything to say." Su Yue said, "I just choked."
The player sitting closest to the kettle stood up, poured a full cup of water, and then quickly passed it to the person next to him.
Everyone worked in perfect harmony, one after another, passing the cup of water to Su Yue quickly and steadily, just like passing the flower while beating the drum.
Finally, the person closest to him politely handed over the cup with both hands: "Boss, please drink some water."
Su Yue: "..."
.
After that, although he wanted to stay on the boat for a while longer to see what was happening outside, after the clock struck ten, night fell quickly. Dangerous waves surged on the sea, and a series of bubbles emerged from time to time, which were the breath of underwater creatures.
All these signs are warning the players not to seek death. No one dares to be arrogant and everyone disperses.
Back to the cabin.
As soon as I returned to the cabin, I had a particularly obvious feeling.
Su Yue took down his crew jacket, which he had never worn, and said to himself, "It's so cold."
Then he asked, "Do you feel that, Ah Zhi?"
"Yeah." Cangzhi's reply was brief.
"That's good. I thought I had drunk too much, but it turns out I'm really cold." Su Yue smiled, put his arms through the sleeves of his coat, and slowly put on his clothes.
He looked a little lazy, and this action actually seemed to have a bit of alluring drunkenness.
"Moonlight Island might be a sea area with a relatively low temperature." Cang Zhi said thoughtfully, "But there is a contradiction. If the temperature is low, why is there flame? Or is that flame-"
"Sleep with me." Su Yue interrupted.
Cang Zhi was like an old CD player, it suddenly got stuck.
Su Yue continued slowly, "We don't know what the impact of the cold weather will be. Instead of studying this, it's better to rest early. If I rest well, the chances of everyone surviving will be higher."
Cang Zhi: “…”
Cang Zhi: "That's true."
Su Yue smiled lazily and stretched out his arms towards Cang Zhi: "Sleep with me."
.
I don't know if Su Yue said it intentionally or unintentionally, saying something that could easily be misunderstood, but it didn't seem like he meant it that way. But if he really didn't mean it that way, there's no way to explain the gentle ripples in his eyes.
Cangzhi had no way to ask or think about it, he could only obey Suyue's request like a puppet.
The two of them wrapped themselves in one blanket because it was really cold, but at the same time, the alcohol from the evening had taken effect, and their heads were burning so much that they felt dizzy.
Red wine tastes sweet when you drink it, and it has the strongest aftertaste, especially this kind of homemade wine. It is hard to tell how strong it is, and it might even spontaneously combust if left in the sun.
Su Yue snuggled into Cangzhi's arms, feeling warm and comfortable.
So Su Yue rubbed Cangzhi's chest with her cheek through his clothes like a kitten.
After a while, I heard Cang Zhi ask, "Have you drunk too much?"
"A little? Maybe." Su Yue said with a smile, "Because there's an old saying in human poetry: 'Drink today's wine today'."
Because life is short and happy times are short, so when you can seize the good times, you don’t have to consider the consequences.
Su Yue had this experience by going back and forth in one survival game after another.
A god with a long life would not understand, and neither would a hollow puppet.
Cang Zhi said: "So you are drunk now."
Su Yue leaned against Cang Zhi and nodded: "Yeah."
He leaned closer into Cangzhi's arms again. Normally, he wouldn't be so intimate with a puppet, but Haike's dance just now itself affected his emotions. Coupled with the alcohol, he felt a little dizzy and unconsciously relaxed the restraint on his emotions.
Even if the Lord God is next to him now, he will still rush over unless the Lord God slaps him away.
Cang Zhi put his arm around his shoulders and was silent for a long time before asking Su Yue, "You seem to like my face very much."
"Yeah." Su Yue agreed vaguely and nodded.
"So do you like this person?" Cang Zhi asked again.
Su Yue paused for a moment, then raised his head and stared at Cang Zhi. His eyes were light in color, giving him a sense of innocence and innocence. He smiled at Cang Zhi and said, "Let's just forget about him."
"That's right." Cang Zhi agreed, "After all, humans are bastards."
"Yeah." Su Yue was still smiling. He heard the sound of waves hitting the cabin and the heavy rain falling on the sea. Maybe it was because he drank too much or maybe it was because he was slow, but he inexplicably recalled many images of "bastard" in his mind.
Those memories left him desperate for healing.
So Su Yue poked the doll's chest.
"What about you?" Su Yue asked, "Do you like my face?"
Cang Zhi did not answer immediately after hearing this. He stared at Su Yue's face for a while. After a while, he raised his hand and gently touched his face like a dragonfly skimming the water.
"I like you." Cang Zhi replied.
