Gu Xi didn't intentionally have the sharks pull the boat closer; instead, he planned to let the boat drift with the current, move with the wind, and go with the water. Gradually, the boat slowly and silently drifted towards the direction of the ghostly light.
As the distance closed, the distant glow gradually became clearer.
This eerie light was not a single ray of light, but rather displayed a constantly shifting and changing hue. Even more strangely, the silhouette of a large ship could be faintly seen behind the light.
Ghost ship!
At this moment, Gu Xi had long lost her usual calm and composure. Her eyes widened slightly, and her pupils contracted sharply. Her hand, resting on the gunwale of the boat, trembled slightly.
She's terrified of ghosts!
Why a ghost ship of all? It's even more terrifying than the deep-sea creatures!
Gu Xi turned around unsteadily, immediately opened the chat group of the 2333 ordinary squad, and typed a string of incomprehensible text with trembling hands.
Gu Xi: "There's a ghost!"
Her words instantly resonated with everyone.
Sun Yiming: "What?! Ghosts?! That's not scientific!"
Xu Lulu: "Sister Xi, don't scare me!"
Lin Xiaoxiao: "Is it really not a will-o'-the-wisp? Or is it a ghost?"
Lorraine: "They're not some deep-sea creature, are they?"
Gu Xi, whose heart was pounding, paused slightly after seeing Luo Lin's words, and then began to ponder them.
The ghost ship is related to the deep-sea race? She thought about it and felt that this possibility was quite high.
But which deep-sea creature created such a ghost ship atmosphere?! I don't know if it will scare the deep-sea creature, but it's really going to terrify her.
The two things she hated most in her life were, firstly, cockroaches, especially flying cockroaches, which she found utterly disgusting; and secondly, ghosts and spirits.
Actually, she was brave and mischievous from a young age, so her grandfather would tell her stories about disobedient children mysteriously disappearing or ghosts eating children's fingers in order to scare her.
Although she was stubborn at the time and insisted that she didn't believe it, she was still deeply traumatized.
One night, she was playing and wouldn't go to sleep no matter how her grandfather called her. When she finally drifted off to sleep in the middle of the night, she suddenly felt something dripping on her face.
She touched her face, but the substance continued to drip, so she impatiently turned on the light to check.
The instant the light was turned on, she discovered that her entire hand was red and had a strong, fishy smell. She screamed in terror, threw off the covers, and ran outside.
At that moment, the ghost stories her grandfather had told her kept popping into her mind, and she couldn't shake the thought off her.
Later investigation revealed that the red liquid that fell from her ceiling that night was blood, but not human blood; it was animal blood.
The tenant living upstairs was abusing small animals. Because the building was old, the animals' blood dripped through the ceiling and onto her head.
Since then, she has become unusually sensitive to things like ghosts, and she especially dislikes people who raise small animals but don't take good care of them.
So, if the ghostly light ahead is truly a phantom, she would definitely have the shark pull the boat away without hesitation. But if it really is a phantom, there's no escaping it; once entangled, she's utterly unlucky.
Fortunately, Lorraine's words woke her up. There are so many strange things in this world, and this ghost ship might just be some kind of deep-sea creature.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi took out the Deep Sea Clan Illustrated Guide and searched for Deep Sea Clan members with similar characteristics.
