Chapter 150 Human Face Fish
"First time on a boat?" The unshaven sailor came over to talk to the boy. He held a half bottle of vodka and blew on it, shouting that he was burping. The smell of wine mixed with the unique smell of seawater that comes from not bathing for a long time at sea. It makes people frown.
But the young man did not avoid it. He just turned his head slowly and said with a faint smile: "This is my first time traveling far away. The sea is so beautiful."
The young man was wearing a thin white shirt. He had an Asian appearance and a pale complexion. He looked frail, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
"Only people like you who have never experienced long-distance shipping will like the sea." The sailor laughed disdainfully and took another sip of wine, "Do you know what it feels like to look at the coastline that never changes day after day? One day, two days, a week, two weeks, up to a month, half a year, people will go crazy in a place like this."
"Don't you like the sea, Mr. Sailor?"
"Of course I don't like it. Being a sailor is very hard. I also have a wife and children. But it takes at least half a year to go on a voyage. There is not even a signal on the ship. Once I leave the shore, I want to chat with my family. There is nothing we can do about it." The sailor said: "As long as there is a way out on land, don't think about running away from the ship, because you will lose a lot."
The sailor sighed, remembering his vacation in Osaka.
This voyage lasted for a year, and it was the only vacation. The company really spent a lot of money to allow them to eat and drink in Japan for half a month, and they could also travel around. During that half month, he and his wife discussed the return voyage. He resigned and never went to sea again.
What kind of job he will go back to has not been decided yet, but he doesn't want to look at the sea anymore. He has traveled enough. Not to mention he has been to half of the world. When he was young, he longed for freedom and adventure. Now I just want to live a peaceful life.
The money he earns will definitely shrink a lot, but compared to the colorful world outside, family companionship is what this man longs for now.
"Mr. Sailor, you really know a lot." The young man smiled and seemed not to have listened to his words. He just quietly watched the waves rolling and the tides roaring.
The tide hits the high-speed rail ship, breaks into smaller waves, and is swallowed by the sea without a sound.
A cold wind blows. It's already December, and the climate is gradually getting colder. The temperature on the sea surface is usually higher than that on land, because water is a liquid with a high specific heat capacity. It heats up slowly and cools down slowly. The lowest temperature in a day is generally between six and seven. around 0, and the land will reach the lowest temperature at three or four in the morning.
Even so, the sea became cold in early winter, and the sailor sneezed and took another sip of wine to warm himself.
He tightened his clothes, ignored the boy watching the sea, and walked back to the staff cabin to prepare for bed.
After his figure disappeared, the boy stood alone for a long time. Then he turned and walked towards the container cabin where the goods were stored. Most of the crew members were asleep. Only some night shift workers stayed in the driver's seat and played slow tunes on the radio. jazz.
No one noticed him, and he walked straight into the cabin, where many containers were neatly stacked, bright white lights illuminated the floor, and serial numbers composed of English and numbers were painted with black spray paint on the outside of the green-painted metal boxes.
The containers were so big that the teenager had to look up to see the tops of them.
Suddenly, a sound like the roar of a wild animal came from the silent cabin, and the pale light shone on the boy's sickly white skin, giving it an atmosphere like a horror movie.
"Don't be anxious, everyone. I know you are very hungry. Dinner will be served soon." The young man took out a pair of clappers and started beating them rhythmically.
He peeled off a piece of chewing gum and put it in his mouth, his pupils were filled with lava-like golden light. The sound of banging suddenly became louder and spread to the entire cabin, like the sound of ancient music playing, echoing in the empty cabin.
Each container suddenly vibrated, and the sound of rushing water came out, like the sound of crashing waves. Those steel-cast containers were like fragile egg shells, pierced and scratched by sharp claws, and water overflowed from the gaps. Come, mixed with sharp glass shards.
When they broke out of their shells, their faces were so pale, like floating corpses that had drowned and been soaked for dozens of days.
This is a group of big fish with human faces. They are about the same size as a container. They have different strange organs on their bodies, but most of them have scales and huge blades. They use this blade to cut through the cage.
As if because they left the water, their long tails flapped vigorously on the floor, splashing water all over the ground, and at the same time roared with an unpleasant high-pitched sound. The golden fish eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and the sticky saliva was mixed with slippery water. Body fluids dripped down, and the crack in his neck opened and closed with each breath, revealing a ferocious red gill-like organ.
They were obviously starving, and there was unspeakable animal lust in their eyes when they looked at the boy.
The young man continued to bang the clapper without any fear. The human-faced fish twisted its body restlessly, its fangs rubbing against each other, and making intensive grinding sounds.
The boy slowly walked up to a female human-faced fish.
It has long black hair, but when wet with water, it looks like messy seaweed and water plants. Its face is pale but beautiful.
Although it is grinning, it does not make people think that the face is hateful, but rather cute, provided that you only look at its face, because it starts to become twisted from the neck, and the whole body presents a python-like strip. Its fine scales open and close with breathing, and something like a flipper can be seen at the end of its tail.
"I'm sorry for keeping you hungry for so long." The boy stretched out his hand to touch the female human-faced fish's face.
However, when he did this, he could no longer continue banging the clapper. One second after the sound of the clapper stopped, the female mermaid immediately let out a piercing scream, wildly swung her body, and hit the boy.
The young man dodged it nimbly, sighed, and had no choice but to continue banging the clapper, "It's all my fault, don't be angry, everyone come with me, go eat, I found a blue whale, you can have a feast."
He walked at the front, and the body of the human-faced fish kept trembling, following his footsteps, or the sound of bangzi, moving forward step by step.
The thick body fluids left a bright trail on the road, and the huge monster reflected its shadow in the moonlight, twisted and terrifying.
The young man led the group of human-faced fish to the board of the boat. He suddenly accelerated his banging sound, and then these human-faced fish suddenly jumped towards the sea. The water splashed one after another and the popping sound continued.
"It will be over soon." The boy stopped holding the clapper in his hand, and the golden color in his eyes faded, "'Father' said he would give us a new life, and we will definitely be able to play together again."
He smiled faintly and continued to look at the sea.
The blue sea has turned scarlet, bright and turbid.
