Chapter 968 Sacrifice?
The fate of the two small boats sailing away is uncertain. If anything goes wrong, dozens of lives will be lost.
This made Jiang Lianzhu feel heavy in her heart.
She can't control it.
No one would listen to her.
This is everyone's fate. The Hope may not be safe either, and it may encounter a large sea beast soon.
Thinking of this, her eyelids twitched.
I always feel like something bad is going to happen sooner rather than later.
She was worried about Lin Ziji's safety.
Fearing that this ominous premonition might be related to Lin Ziji's safety, she used her magical powers to calculate...
It has nothing to do with Lin Ziji.
Lin Ziji's fortune seems to be a little better now. It was relatively weak before, but now it seems a little calmer.
He is definitely alive!
So what could be making her eyelids twitch?
Are sea monsters coming early?
At this moment, suddenly, the water surface shook slightly...
Some people on the deck had not yet entered the cabin. They were still watching the two small boats sailing away and talking among themselves.
The sailors were also busy with their own tasks.
Even the sky was blue, without a single white cloud.
No one felt any danger from the slight shake just now!
Jiang Lianzhu wasn't even sure!
Suddenly, the green-faced girl jumped out again, threw her hair into the water, and fished it out in an instant.
She yelled, "The sea monster is coming! The sea monster is coming!!!"
In an instant, an alarm sounded on the Hope.
The whistle blew long and loud.
The entire Hope entered a level one alert state.
The first mate shouted, "Everyone, return to your cabins immediately! Anyone watching the excitement on deck, falling into the water, or being eaten by sea monsters will not be rescued!"
Now, the whole ship was in chaos.
Everyone hurried back to their own rooms, looking into the distance as they ran.
He covered his mouth in horror, his eyes almost popping out.
That was the direction the two boats had just headed!
Suddenly, a huge wave rolled up over there, which was at least ten meters high. The two small boats were like rootless duckweed on the water. In an instant, they were rolled onto the crest of the wave, and the whole hull was turned upside down. The people on the small boats fell down like dumplings.
Then, a long tongue of water appeared on the sea...
Drop one, eat one!
Drop one, roll one!
Everyone reacted and panicked.
"Oh my god! It really is a sea monster! How terrifying! It's eating people! It's going to eat up all the people on those two boats!"
"What's going on with the sea monster? Is it coming so soon? Run! Run away in the boat!"
"Those two boats are finished. Luckily, I didn't take the small boat..."
"Nix, you're out here fighting sea monsters! Aren't you looking for sea monsters? If we die here, even if we become ghosts, we won't let you go..."
…
These were the reactions of the VIPs, who cursed and retreated to their cabins in fear of death, hiding themselves trembling.
There were even ghostly howlings in the poor warehouse.
When they heard the alarm of the Hope, some brave people came up to inquire about the situation. They heard that sea monsters were coming and eating people, and everyone was terrified.
Just now they were still discussing who had gotten the job this time and was going to make a fortune, so that they would have a secure life for the rest of their lives.
As a result, it became like this.
When they returned to the poor cabin and announced the news, everyone cried out of fear.
In panic, the children cried and made a lot of noise, and the adults were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, running around in circles.
They were only allowed to walk around their own beds. They were poor and had low aspirations, so they usually didn't dare to talk to the manager, and now they were even more afraid to go out and ask about the situation.
Many people grew up by the sea and have heard legends about sea beasts, and they are so scared that their faces turn pale.
Put your hands together in front of your chest, chant something, and ask the sea god for protection!
…
Nanbao woke up from her drowsiness and found everything in a mess.
Xiao Lang was frightened and started crying, and went straight into Mrs. Wan's arms.
The cries of children were heard everywhere.
Mrs. Wan was also scared to death. Her husband and brother-in-law had gone out to find out what was going on. She hugged her son and snuggled in the quilt on the bed, as if a thin quilt could give them a sense of security.
Seeing that Nanbao had woken up, she said, "Don't be afraid, little girl, come into our bed for a while. Your mother is not here right now."
Nanbao had heard clearly the discussions around her.
She looked calm, "It's okay, I'm not afraid! Isn't it just a sea monster? My parents will kill it! Don't be afraid, my mother will save you too..."
Mrs. Wan smiled bitterly. This little girl was truly pleasing to the eye. She was not at all nervous at such a young age. She was completely different from ordinary children.
As an adult, she felt inferior in front of this child.
A panicked and confused heart calmed down a little because of a child of a few years old.
"Okay, no worries. We're not afraid."
Sister Wan asked again, "If you're not afraid, then why don't you go find your parents?"
Nanbao looked at the chaos around her and shook her head. "My parents might be busy. I won't go out and cause them trouble. They will come back to find me when they are done. I can be by myself."
Mrs. Wan was speechless.
This child... was more sensible and generous than she had imagined.
Even adults can’t stay so calm in times of crisis!
She also has absolute trust in her parents, which is indescribably enviable.
Jiang Lianzhu's consciousness always remained with her daughter. Seeing that her daughter was so sensible, she felt relieved.
It took only a few words, and the two small boats on the sea had capsized, and all the people on board were in distress.
Jiang Lianzhu released her consciousness and scanned the area, and discovered that there were strange runes engraved on the bottoms of those ships!
Like some kind of spell?
Considering all the events that happened before and after, the sea beasts appeared just as the ship was leaving. Could they have been summoned by the runes?
So, these people are sacrifices sent out by summoning sea monsters?
Was this the Knicks' doing?
But it wasn't Knicks who first revealed the news; these people took the initiative to ask to get off the ship...
If human sacrifice is necessary, most people would use poor people. Using rich people for sacrifice would be too costly. If you create a strong enemy, it would be difficult to survive in the future.
So, it shouldn't be intentional on the part of the Knicks.
Did these people have to attack? Did the Knicks just take advantage of the situation?
Jiang Lianzhu didn't think about it anymore. It was useless to think too much. Anyway, the people on the two ships had been sacrificed.
No wonder she felt something was wrong after the ship left.
She thought that the two boats would have to travel at least several days on the sea before encountering some risks, and she never thought it would happen so quickly!
Sacrifice it directly and summon the sea beast.
But after the sea beast had eaten up the people on two boats, it finally revealed its true face.
It is a giant monster fish that is at least tens of meters long!
It stretches across the sea like a small mountain!
It is fat and covered with scales, with a big mouth full of ugly fangs arranged densely, and two long whiskers on the sides of its mouth!
