The Fallen Merman - Chap 87
“Where is your current position?” Bai Chunian asked through the loudspeaker, “I’ll go look for you.”
The signal of the drone was sometimes strong and weak, and Lanbo’s voice was covered by the noisy electric sound, the image was stuck, and finally the screen simply went black. Bai Chunian sat in front of the detection terminal and tapped his palm impatiently.
Bai Chunian threw down the malfunctioning equipment and went to the deck to breathe.
The sky was getting dark, the sea was calm, and a white fog gradually enveloped the cruise ship.
This ship was arranged by the ioa South American branch for Bai Chunian to board. There were several ioa branch agents who were on secret missions mixed in plain clothes disguised as businessmen, and a lot of canned meat was transported in the cabin as cover. Bai Chunian Just hitch a ride.
A colleague from Havana was standing on the deck, holding a telescope and looking westward. Bai Chunian walked over and stood beside him with a railing.
Alpha’s bronzed face has a pair of black eyes embedded in it. His English is very fluent. He put down the telescope and said hello to Bai Chunian:
“Brother, we are in trouble.”
Bai Chunian shrugged, “Why?”
“This sea area is the territory of mermen,” said alpha. “As in Greek mythology, this siren will confuse humans, trick passing ships, and then kill sailors for food.”
“Then why do we have to take this road.” Although it was exactly what Bai Chunian wanted, he still wanted to know what it meant for them to challenge the unknown.
Alpha laughed: “I really want to see a live merman. There are quite a few agents on board, and there are plenty of weapons.”
The more capable people are, the more likely they will die on the road of curiosity. Bai Chunian felt that it was very reasonable.
“For so many years, no one has seen the merman’s lair. It is said that cruise ships and freighters often disappear mysteriously in this sea area. Mermaid Island is a more mysterious and terrifying place than the Bermuda Triangle, where all electronic devices will be out of control.” That An alpha said, “My grandfather narrowly escaped death near Mermaid Island. He told me his story. He said that Mermaid Island did exist, but he couldn’t get in.”
Bai Chunian nodded.
From the scene that Rimbaud showed him, the place where he lived was a huge shipwreck area, no less than an island, but even satellites could not detect its location, its existence is still a mystery.
Alpha took out two pairs of earplugs from his pocket and handed them to Bai Chunian: “Just in case, do you want it?”
Bai Chunian took it.
The ship sailed slowly in the thick fog, the fog was getting bigger and bigger, the people on the ship could hardly see each other face to face, and the whole world turned white.
But there are always some curious people who want to run up to see the excitement.
Bai Chunian did not wear earplugs. He believed in the legend, but he didn’t believe that the sea monster in the legend refers to Rimbaud. He knew Rimbaud too well. Rimbaud in the cultivation period was just a fool who would only eat some plastic waste.
From the depths of the thick fog came a long, distant cry.
The people on the boat also heard it, and they all ran towards the sound they heard, but there were people running in either direction, and everyone thought they were right.
Some people say it’s just a whale call, others say it’s a mermaid call.
Bai Chunian knew who this familiar voice came from.
The alpha beside him woke him up from the wandering: “Hey brother, put on the earplugs, you are about to be hooked by the Kraken.”
“I want to, just fish me away.”
The alpha couldn’t persuade him at all, believing that he was caught in the merman’s evil, so he stepped back a few steps away from him.
The psychedelic long chirping came and went from all directions, gradually interweaving into a tune, an ethereal voice singing in the mist, long and gentle, but it was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman, or it was a mix of many different voices. , sing-like charming spells echoed in everyone’s mind.
On the deck, some people were kneeling on the ground in despair, some were laughing wildly, some were crying, and some people lost their focus and wandered on the deck like a corpse.
Bai Chunian felt as if a pair of hands were stroking his hair, very light and gentle. He touched his face, and his eyelids were filled with moist water inexplicably.
The autopilot on the boat went out and could not be restarted. The old-fashioned compass was spinning in circles.
Their ship seems to be steered by a strange force, automatically sailing in the direction of the bewitching song.
In the thick fog, the shadows of birds hovered in the air.
A huge bird landed on their mast. People’s eyes were drawn to him, but they saw a humanoid creature sitting leisurely on their masts, with a pair of scaly fins on his back, a bumpy figure, his legs wrapped in scales and tail fins, charming eyes Glancing across the deck, the tips of her transparent webbed claws stroked her red lips and blew kisses at people.
Countless similar beautiful birds hovered in the sky, with different colors, and the scales reflected the dark light.
Bai Chunian stood on the deck in a daze. A huge sharp-angled outline first appeared in the thick fog in the direction he was facing. It seemed that someone was sitting on the looming outline.
The ship approached the island uncontrollably, and the outline of the island became clearer and clearer. The sharp corner Bai Chunian saw was a sunken ship stuck in the sea, half of the cabin arched out of the sea.
The sunken ship glowed blue in the mist, and not only the ship, but the reef island on which it hit the rocks also glowed blue like a dancing ghost.
Hundreds of thousands of merman with colorful fish tails sat on deck singing, leaped lightly into the sea, swam towards their boat, leaped high in the surrounding sea, and dived into the water.
A blond mermaid beckoned to him from a ghost ship, a translucent blue tail gleaming with stars.
Standing on the deck of the ship, Bai Chunian seemed to be separated from Lanbo by a different world.
Their ship suddenly brushed over a rock, made a loud screeching noise, and the deck shook wildly, and just as their ship was also about to become a display in the wreck area, the ship slowed down.
Bai Chunian leaned on the railing and looked towards the water. The mermaids at the bottom pushed their course away from the island. The winged mermaids used their claws to hold the kelp to stop their propellers.
The mermen spewed jets of water, erecting a ladder of water between the two ships.
Rimbaud raised his slender tail and rolled it into a heart shape in the air. In the middle of the heart shape, the slender tail was wrapped into a few letters “ilvu”, like an electrified blue light board.
Bai Chunian woke up, everyone on the boat fainted, and lay all over the place on the deck. Now this situation seems to be standing on the deck. The buddy with earplugs is very unfit, the Havana guy is stunned. Staring blankly at Bai Chunian: “They are welcoming us”
Bai Chunian took advantage of him in a daze and punched him from the back of the neck, and the unlucky guy who didn’t know the truth also fell down.
“It’s nothing to do with you, people are welcoming me.”
The water column steps connected the two ships. Bai Chunian’s ship was more than ten meters lower than the half-sunk luxury cruise ship that Lan Bo was on.
Lan Bo jumped lightly, dived into the stairs supported by the water, swam towards Bai Chunian, threw himself into his arms, and whispered in his ear, “Did the kitty randimebolujeo miss me?”
“No, I have to take it easy for a while.” Bai Chunian held Lan Bo with one hand and covered his heart with the other. “I can’t accept it for a while. I thought you were the village chief, but I didn’t expect you to be the president.”
“en”
“It’s nothing, I, the grass people, don’t know where to go.”
Rimbaud patted his head: “Be good.”
“What should I call you?” Bai Chunian was a little nervous, walking around the deck with him in his arms, “Siren, this is your original name.”
“Rimbo, I like Rimbaud.”
He looked at Bai Chunian, his eyes full of indifference.
Bai Chunian carried him with one hand and walked up the stairs supported by the water to the magnificent and beautiful ghost island. He had never seen Lanbo’s home.
As soon as they stepped on the transparent stairs, the mermaid climbed onto the deck, staring at the fainted humans staring hungry and greedy, and the saliva dripped onto the deck.
In a direction that Bai Chunian could not see, Lan Bo quietly raised a cold face towards them, silently threatening: “nowagurayi. Don’t eat it.”
The mermaids were afraid of the majesty of the king, so they retreated into the water angrily, and pushed the ship away from the mermaid island.
The ladder supported by the water looks very regular in shape. Since it was made into this shape, Bai Chunian subconsciously thought that the ladder could be walked up, but he did not expect that one foot would leak into the water.
But he didn’t sink. A person tall bubble wrapped him, and the water was separated from the bubble. Bai Chunian stood up and tried to stretch his hand out of the bubble, but the bubble didn’t burst. He could feel the sea water outside the bubble. .
Rimbaud lay outside the bubble and looked at him and smiled.
He swam behind him and pushed Bai Chunian to the deep sea. The mermaids he met along the way bowed to them and saluted: “quaun.”
Bai Chunian turned around and asked, “I’m calling you”
Rimbaud blinked, neither saying yes nor no.
They entered the dusk area 200 meters underwater. Bai Chunian did not feel any pressure or difficulty breathing, just like on land, and even the oxygen was fresher.
There were a lot of fish at this depth, and schools of fish swam past him like a swarm of bumblebees, and swarms of herring roamed under his feet.
Bai Chunian squatted down and stared intently at the fish in the water. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed one of them. Holding the struggling herring, he put it under his nose and smelled it.
Rimbaud: “Do you want to eat?”
Bai Chunian: “No, I just smelled whether the fish stinks before it was canned.”
On the way, I met two pregnant mermaid omegas walking in the dusk area. The two little o’s had big belly. Bai Chunian felt that he was an alpha and would not approach them, but Lan Bo didn’t mind at all and pushed Bai Chu. Years traveled.
The two pregnant mermaids bowed with difficulty.
Rimbaud supported them, put his hands lightly on their stomachs, and said softly: “quaunblasyikimo. The queen blesses and blesses you.” The blue jellyfish turned into shining stars with Rimbaud’s hands, and fell on the heads of the two mermaid omegas .
The two mermaids saw the blue fish pattern on Bai Chunian’s shoulders, and lowered their heads in surprise: “quaunmit. Thank you queen.”
“Ah, hello, hello, hello.” Bai Chunian squatted in the blisters to watch the fun.
They often encounter different mermaids along the way. There are many pregnant mermaids, including omegas and alphas. Every time they meet a mermaid carrying a baby, Rimbaud always stops, puts a blue jellyfish for them, and then says the queen’s blessing. you.
When encountering a mermaid holding a baby, Lan Bo would take the baby in their arms and give Bai Chunian a hug.
The little baby with the fish tail was so small and soft that Bai Chunian could hold it in his palm with both hands.
“Don’t give it to me, it’s too young. I’ll burn him again. Hurry up and catch him.” Bai Chunian has never touched a child before, and his hand used to hold a gun is a bit rough and strong. , I’m afraid it’s broken for the little baby, so I quickly returned it.
Rimbaud frowned slightly, and asked softly with worry in his eyes: “Nowa doesn’t like it”
He swam back slowly to return the baby to his mother, put his hand on the little mermaid’s head, and gave him a smaller jellyfish in frustration.
