Chapter 156 Mysterious Marine Creatures
Qu Yanbai and Shi Yan also rushed out after hearing the noise, only to hear a mysterious and strange female voice in their ears.
But when the men heard this melodious female voice, they all seemed a little dazed and were several beats slow to react.
While Qu Yanbai was stunned, another man jumped down, and a fish tail appeared. In an instant, the figure of the man who jumped down immediately disappeared on the sea, as if he was dragged away by something.
The speed is so fast that it is impossible to react.
Before Qu Yanbai could use his special powers, he could no longer see the man.
At the same time, the women also came out with weapons, but on the contrary, they were not affected at all.
"Stop your ears!"
Qin Muxue had already noticed something was wrong and asked everyone to cover their ears.
But there were still a few men standing there stupidly without moving.
In front of them, there are several mermaids with fish tails and human bodies. These mermaids have extremely beautiful faces. They are all peerless beauties, and their looks are in line with every man's aesthetic taste.
Their lips were slightly parted, singing a moving song.
The long black hair is tightly attached to the snow-white skin, the skin is crystal clear, making people want to touch it, the slender waist is graceful.
The lively eyes are full of charm. Even if you have been killing fish in the supermarket for ten years, you cannot resist such temptation.
As strong as Shi Yan's willpower was, the face of the mermaid that appeared in his eyes looked exactly like Qin Muxue, so he was stunned for a while.
The face of the mermaid that Qu Yanbai saw looked exactly like Manman, and it was so charming and fascinating.
Shi Yan quickly realized that something was wrong, because the real Qin Muxue appeared beside him, so the one in the sea must not be real.
There are many legends about mermaids in the world. According to legend, they use beautiful songs to make ships stop and watch, and when people hear such songs, they will gradually lose consciousness and be seduced by the mermaids.
This is a legend passed down from the West, and Qin Muxue also thinks that it is just a legend and cannot be true.
After all, no one has ever seen a real mermaid, they are all fabricated by humans.
The first to regain consciousness were Qu Yanbai and Shi Yan. After their ears were blocked, they immediately realized that everything in front of them was fake.
Shi Yan's face flushed red because the mermaid he saw was naked. When he looked at Qin Muxue's face again, he felt a strong sense of guilt.
After losing three more male teammates, everyone became nervous. Fortunately, after putting on earplugs, they gradually regained consciousness.
Qin Muxue looked at the direction they had just stared at, but saw nothing. She asked curiously, "What did you see just now? Why did you show such an expression just now?"
Even though the women heard the singing, they were not affected at all, and they did not see anything unusual on the sea.
In order to understand what they saw, Qin Muxue could only write down on paper, "What did you see just now?"
The men started talking at once. Each of them was seeing a peerless beauty. The mermaids held their hands and asked them to come over.
Only Cai Sangqing and Ai Lan did not speak, because what they saw was not a woman... and they were too embarrassed to say what they saw.
Mu Wanwan still felt strange and wrote on the paper, "Why do you guys look so unhappy? Did you see the same situation as them?"
Manman joked, "They must have seen something, but what they saw is definitely different from what you think, so there's no need to ask."
Mu Wanwan was still curious, but Manman told her not to ask, so she didn't ask.
Sang Qing and Ai Lan saw each other, and they couldn't say such things.
It wasn't just the women who didn't respond to the singing; the children didn't either.
The three men who fell into the sea were lured over and most likely became food for some marine creatures.
Red blood was floating on the sea surface. Sharks that used to swim over as soon as they smelled the blood now did not dare to come to this area.
Even whales did not dare to approach this area. They were originally heading west, but after arriving at this sea area, even the steering wheel was out of control and brought them to this dark sea area.
Just as Qin Muxue thought, there are many mysterious creatures in the ocean, and it is even more dangerous to stay on the sea surface.
After several attempts, Qin Muxue decided to let the women guard the boat this time, and let all the men go into the cabin. They were not allowed to take off their earplugs or headphones. As long as they could not hear any sound, they would not be tempted.
Manman was puzzled. "Xiaoxue, is what you saw a real mermaid?"
"I asked Qu Yanbai and Shi Yan, and the faces they saw were different. I suspect that this is also an illusion, just like the carnivorous plant, which emits a scent that insects like to lure prey. There must be some kind of creature that can create illusions that can confuse men, lure them into the sea, and then use them as prey." This is the most reasonable guess she can think of now.
The next day, they found two badly mutilated corpses not far from the boat. Most of the flesh on the corpses had been bitten off, and the other one could not be found at all, which probably confirmed their guess.
They still don’t know what the creatures in the ocean are. Even if they don’t harm women now, they can’t guarantee it in the future.
"Now that the men can't fight, we can fight too. We must guard this ship well."
"Now, this is equivalent to our home, and we will definitely protect our home well."
The women were all excited in an instant and arranged their tasks with a clear division of labor. First, they sent several women to guard the cabin where the men were, and some to patrol the deck, ready to call for help immediately if they found any danger.
After two days, the ship was temporarily stable and no one jumped into the sea again.
A man was resting in the cabin. He felt very uncomfortable after wearing earplugs for several days. He wanted to take them off for a while, but after hesitating for a long time, he felt his ears were very itchy, so he could not help but take them off.
The moment he took it down, he heard the strange singing in his ears again, and his consciousness was taken away in an instant.
This time he saw a hideous nightmare with a scary face next to him, who was emptying his roommate's stomach and smiling arrogantly while eating.
The man was terrified, and quickly found the gun under his pillow. He fired several shots at the demon's face, but the demon was not dead at all. He stared at him with a mocking smile, and was about to pounce on him. The man fired at the cabin door.
The woman outside noticed the noise and quickly notified Qin Muxue and the others to come over.
When they arrived, they saw that the man's roommate had been shot beyond recognition and the cabin was in a mess.
"Oops, we thought it was too simple at first."
Following the direction of the bloodstains, they arrived at the deck and saw a man covered in blood, running towards the cockpit like a madman.
Qin Muxue had no choice but to trap him with water, but he was still roaring desperately under the control of his water power, "It's a demon, I want to kill the demon."
He didn't care even though he was injured. Qin Muxue stepped forward, and one person couldn't control him. Several women surrounded him and tied him up with ropes. The man was still mumbling and shouting, "You demons, don't even think about hurting me. Even if I die, I will never surrender to you."
His forehead was covered with sweat, veins bulged, he gritted his teeth, and shook his body frantically.
If this goes on, Qin Muxue is afraid that he will bite his tongue and commit suicide. The best way now is to knock him out.
Mu Wanwan tried several times with the stick, but the man did not faint.
Cong Ning on the side said calmly: "Why not let me do it!"
"Sister Cong Ning, can you?"
“Let’s give it a try!”
Cong Ning picked up the stick and hit the man on the head with all his strength. The man turned around and said, "Devil... Damn it..."
Then he fell to the ground and fainted. Mu Wanwan swallowed her saliva. Zong Ning was much more cruel than herself.
Qin Muxue touched his neck and found that he was not dead, but just unconscious. He only had some minor skin injuries on his head. If she hadn't knocked him out, there would have been unpredictable consequences.
His earplugs were no longer there, so he must have looked like this because he heard the singing.
"Manman, can you please check if he is okay?"
"OK."
Qin Muxue took a few people to other cabins to check on their situation. It seemed that as long as they didn't hear the singing, there would be no serious situation.
Qin Muxue planned to gather all these people in one place and manage them centrally. If there were more accidents like the one that happened to the big man just now, they might not be able to handle it.
These seduced men were several times stronger than usual, and women without superpowers could not subdue them at all, nor could they simply shoot them to death.
Afterwards, she brought all the men to the chess and card room, locked them up there, and wrote a note to Shi Yan, "Observe the people here. If you find anything unusual, tell the person at the door immediately. A man just went crazy. Fortunately, we handled it in time and he didn't die, but someone died because of him."
"I understand." Shi Yan nodded. Seeing Qin Muxue was about to leave, he grabbed her arm and said, "Xiaoxue, you have to be careful too. I'm not with you..."
"Don't worry."
A group of women who usually look weak are more reliable than men when they are in danger.
But now there are a lot fewer people, and the situation on the ship is a bit difficult to handle.
Manman had learned how to sail from Qu Yanbai for a few days before, and now she was at the helm. Fortunately, her morning sickness had improved a lot in the past few days, and she was not feeling so uncomfortable. In addition, Grandma Qu also made some pickled plums for her, and she would eat one when she felt uncomfortable. Qin Muxue discussed with Cong Ning, "Since the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, why don't we try to find that guy in the sea."
"But how do we find that creature..."
Cong Ning's special ability is to make hair grow longer, and Qin Muxue immediately thought of a solution.
"I have an idea."
I found a professional underwater photography equipment in the space. I originally thought that this kind of high-tech thing would not be used now, but I didn’t expect it could be useful.
Originally, this kind of camera was mainly used in oil, deep-water exploration, underwater operations, and marine fisheries. Now it can be used to help her detect underwater situations.
After explaining her idea to Cong Ning, she took out a piece of purple ore and said, "If your mental power is not enough, you can try to absorb the mental power in it and continue to detect."
"Okay, I'll try." She was now a part of them, and she was grateful to the people on the ship for taking care of her. Now she could help them a little, and she felt very happy.
The hair is wrapped around the underwater camera and put into the water. The scenes captured in the water can be synchronized to the observer on the boat.
Qin Muxue could feel that the thing was following their boat. She stared at the screen carefully, trying to see some clues from it.
At first, when the camera was put down, it went smoothly. Ning's hair could change position automatically, and they could observe in all directions of 365 degrees.
There was nothing unusual in the water, just some marine plants, and not even a single fish could be seen.
The less she could see other creatures, the stranger Qin Muxue felt, until Cong Ning felt her hair being pulled.
"It seems to be pulled by something."
Qin Muxue saw a white shadow flash across the screen.
Mu Wanwan was startled, "What was that just now?"
Maybe she used to believe that water ghosts really existed, but now after seeing so many strange things, she no longer thinks so. It must be some kind of mysterious mutated creature.
The creature saw the camera clearly, but did not react at all and did not attack. It was very strange. It just pulled it a little, and then returned to normal from Ning's side.
Qin Muxue asked her to continue observing, while she herself wanted to ask the sober man what he had seen.
The big man was still a little confused when he woke up, with earplugs in his ears. Until those memories slowly surfaced, he began to wave his hands and found himself tied to the bed, "Let me go, let me go!"
Qin Muxue wrote something on a piece of paper and asked him, "Calm down, tell us what you saw just now?"
The big man now saw that the people in front of him were normal, and his emotions calmed down a little. "It's demons. The demons want to kill me. I will kill them first! Those demons are so scary, with so many tentacles."
Qin Muxue knew that what he saw was all fantasy. It was because of that scene that he had just seen that he killed his roommate.
The note read, "Does fantasy make you kill people?"
"No, they are not human, they are demons. The demons want to kill me, so of course I have to fight back and kill them, but I can't kill them. They are not afraid of death at all."
This fantasy is more deterrent than the ones I have seen before, and it is more likely to make people kill each other.
I just don't know why the singing is only directed at adult males, but these people are fine with it.
Mu Wanwan ran over in a hurry, and said breathlessly: "Sister Qin, something appeared in that camera...something incredible appeared!"
"What did you see?"
"You'll know once you see it."
Ignoring the terrified man, they came to the observation screen.
It turned out that the underwater camera had come to a strange place. It was full of algae, but there were a lot of bones entangled in the algae, and it was impossible to count how many bones there were.
Even watching these through the screen makes people feel creepy.
Those might be humans hunted by that mysterious creature. Qin Muxue can be sure that these creatures are definitely men.
The mysterious creature hated men very much, and she could only make such a guess.
Cong Ning's face was already pale, and now it became even paler. "You just saw something flash by, like, like a tentacle?"
"tentacle……"
This time the creature's tentacles were actually revealed to them.
There was a white bone wrapped in the tentacles, as if it were a toy.
"I've never seen such a big octopus." Mu Wanwan opened her mouth in surprise.
Qin Muxue asked Manman to stop sailing first. They floated on the sea and could observe the situation in the sea more clearly.
"Such a huge octopus could have attacked us directly, so why would it go to such great lengths to use its singing to lure men?"
"She may prefer eating men's flesh, hahaha." Mu Wanwan smiled awkwardly.
"Or maybe she had the same experience as me?" Cong Ning suddenly said, "She was hurt by a man, so she hates men very much."
"Do creatures like octopuses have the concept of men?"
"There is a difference between female and male octopuses. Even if he hates males, why does he hunt human males? He should kill male octopuses." Everyone expressed their guesses one by one.
Manman suddenly thought of a key point. "Yan Bai and the others said that we would hear a kind of singing, but we have never heard that singing before. Octopuses shouldn't be able to sing, right? We can start with the singing."
So Qin Muxue and Manman came to the cabin where the men gathered. It was quiet here. Manman wrote a question on a piece of paper: "Does anyone know what song you heard?"
A group of men shook their heads in confusion; they had never heard of this song before.
Only Cai Haomiao replied: "Although I don't know who sang it, I can hum the music and I still remember the melody of the song."
Qin Muxue asked him to try to hum it. The song sounded very familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a moment.
After hearing the melody, Manman suddenly looked up and said, "I remember, I remember this song. It was sung by a niche singer. I feel that the melody touches my heart. I have heard it countless times, and it is definitely not wrong."
Mu Wanwan suddenly realized, "I've heard of this too. Our hobbies are very similar. I once attended a book signing event for that singer. She has a lot of female fans but almost no male fans. I also heard that her family is well-off and she only does music for her hobby."
When they said this, Qin Muxue also remembered, "You are talking about Qu Chunfang, right? That niche singer who once had a very popular song. This is one of her less popular songs!"
"Yes, yes, that's right. Her name is Qu Chunfang."
Qu Chunfang is a very mysterious singer. It is rumored that she is very wealthy. If she fails to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry, she will be caught and taken back to inherit the family business.
At the same time, her singing voice is very ethereal and very popular in niche circles.
"If I remember correctly, she had already retired from the entertainment industry. One day, she posted on Weibo that she was going to quit the entertainment industry because she had met her true love."
"Yes. Later, I seemed to see a report about her. She disappeared after a yacht trip. Her husband burst into tears and later inherited her property. Many fans said that it was because the man wanted her inheritance, so he..." Mu Wanwan still vaguely remembered all of this. She was a gossipy person, so she remembered these things in the entertainment industry particularly clearly.
"We are in the sea again, sitting on a boat in the sea. Could it be that... that octopus is her? But how can a human turn into an octopus?"
"That's possible. She was killed by the man she loved the most and she hated men, so she used singers to lure men and then killed them. We have also encountered a mutation of the combination of two creatures before. Maybe she is Qu Chunfang and we are not wrong!"
Although her identity has been analyzed, the biggest difficulty is how to stop her behavior.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the direction of the deck, and they hurried over to Cong Ning. "Just now, I seemed to have seen a woman's head. Her eyes were moving, staring straight at me."
To be precise, you should be looking in the direction of the camera.
Cong Ning was startled and his heart is still beating.
Qin Muxue quickly called up the footage she had just captured. When that familiar face appeared in front of everyone, they finally realized that their guess was not wrong.
The face was pale and scary, and the pair of black eyes vaguely showed that it was Qu Chunfang.
She is not a very beautiful woman, but she has a very good temperament and her singing voice is very beautiful.
"If she doesn't hurt women, I want to communicate with her!"
Qin Muxue decided to put on a diving suit and meet her to see what Qu Chunfang was thinking.
"Sister Qin, are you going down alone? It's so dark under the water, and there are so many corpses... I'm scared just thinking about it." Mu Wanwan already had goose bumps all over her body. At this moment, her admiration for Qin Muxue increased again.
"We can't just let all the men on the ship die. We can prevent it temporarily, but we can never prevent it forever. And she is very pitiful... Even if she becomes like this, she doesn't harm women. It's just that her past experiences make her hate men. I think I can still communicate with her in a friendly way."
Cong Ning could understand this very well, as she had also been hurt all over by a man.
At this time, Qu Chunfang, who was at the bottom of the water, was looking at the underwater camera approaching her. She was once a little famous and sang freely on the stage, but now she can only lie on the cold seabed.
It’s all because of that man…that damn man.
