Summer is hot.
After suffering from the high temperature, the four of them finally found the hotel where they were staying. As soon as they walked in the door, the air-conditioning that greeted them was like a clear spring, washing their bodies and minds completely.
"survived……"
When they arrived at the reserved double room, everyone was busy preparing for whatever they had to do. They were all preparing for the beach bath later. Gao Yi watched them take out their swimming goggles, nose clips and even There is also a first aid bracelet, which makes me smile a bit.
"Why don't you just play in the water on the beach for a while? How about being so professional?"
"When you go out alone, it's always good to take extra precautions."
Allen weighed Gao Yi's weightless backpack and hesitated: "You didn't bring anything, did you?"
"I do not need."
Gao Yi laughed twice: "Because I use a swimming ring."
…
Under the blue sky.
In the distance is surrounded by green mountains.
The white sandy beach and the transparent sea water are intertwined here. Standing on a high place and looking around, you can see countless people floating like ants below, showing an unprecedented lively scene.
[In view of the general environment,
"Wuhu~!"
Allen stepped on the soft sand and couldn't help but let out a long roar.
Mr. Qian kicked him in the butt: "You are so old, how can you still act like a three-year-old child?"
"Lao Gao, come here!"
Gao Yi had a swimming ring hanging on his arm and was still looking around. He didn't know who grabbed him, but Xili Hutu followed the footsteps of the three crazy batches and ran straight into a big wave.
boom!
The power of nature's majesty came from the waves, mixed with the coldness that was completely opposite to the weather. It immediately made Gao Yi's muscles tighten, and he shrank into the swimming circle, with dripping water all over his head and face. seawater.
"Phew, it feels so good."
When the tide receded, they got up from the beach and continued running towards the distant sea.
"It's just a pity that this is not a tropical sea."
The three heads were flopping in the seawater as high as one person. Mr. Qian wiped the water stains from his face and said, still thinking: "Otherwise, I would like to try diving and go underwater to take pictures of the coral reefs."
"Hey, have you seen Lao Gao?"
"The one that was there just now has been moved to another place, right?"
"Don't worry, it's not deep here. Even Allen can touch the ground. He still has a swimming ring, so what could happen? Let's take a walk and let's continue swimming."
"You're laughing at my height, right? Right!"
…
On the other side, Gao Yi was holding the swimming ring and floating aimlessly on the water. At this time, he was being pushed aside by the sea water. It was not until he collided with someone that he came back to his senses.
"A Shen?"
"it's me."
Behind Gao Yi, a little fishman dressed as a child was also floating on a swimming ring, obviously well prepared.
They originally agreed to meet on the beach, but they didn't expect there to be so many people, so they walked around for so long before finally finding each other.
"How have things been these past two days?" Gao Yi asked in a low voice.
"very bad."
Ah Shen's human expression became solemn unconsciously: "Yesterday, I originally wanted to find out if there was a boat willing to go out to sea, but the people in Wangxiang Port, no matter the big or small boats, kept looking inexplicably evasive."
"No amount of money?" Gao Yi frowned.
Ah Shen was silent.
"This may also be related to the lack of funds for our activities."
"...You go ahead."
"I almost searched the boat boss, and later I learned from some of the helpers that the reason why they didn't want to go to sea was not because the sea was not peaceful recently, and it was easy to catch... dead fish."
"Dead fish?" Gao Yi
doubted.
"I do know that there has always been a saying in fishing circles that "a dead fish is just talking, and then it's time to close the pole and leave." But when fishing in the sea, is it also taboo to kill a dead fish? "
Ah Shen couldn't help but shook his head: "No, no, no. From what they described, this is no longer a taboo issue, but because the phenomenon is so frequent that one can immediately feel there is something wrong."
"Some people often come in one net, and at least half of the fish are dead. Some people even come in one net, and all the fish are dead."
"When the net was opened, what poured out was not lively schools of fish, but lifeless corpses, until the entire deck was piled up. I'm afraid anyone who saw this would be horrified."
Gao Yi nodded silently.
He suddenly remembered the sudden death of a seabird on the road.
It is also a bizarre death. Is there any connection between the two?
"Hello……"
"careful……"
"Something is coming..."
The noise from the distance interrupted Gao Yi's thoughts. He and Ah Shen looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a black figure in the lake, as if riding the waves, heading straight towards the beach. Come on!
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
boom!
The waves washed up on the beach, breaking into pieces of white foaming cloth and falling back, leaving only the black shadow for everyone to look at.
"What's this?"
"Stray? But it's too big!"
"How did it get over the anti-shark net?"
"Looks like he's dead!"
Gao Yi ran up to the beach with his swimming ring, but because of the crowds gathered on three levels inside and outside, he couldn't see what was going on inside. It wasn't until the lifeguard came from the observation tower and used a loudspeaker to disperse the crowd. He took a quick glance and realized what was going on inside. Get a glimpse of the true form of the creature inside.
"What happened?"
The three of them, Mr. Qian, who looked like a drowned rat, came out of the sea belatedly. Seeing the other tourists who had dispersed, they curiously turned their attention to Gao Yi.
He didn't speak.
Just looking at the body of the big ray that was lifeless under the hands of the lifeguard in silence, the uneasiness in my heart had already sounded the alarm.
wrong.
Gao Yi looked at the other three people: "It's almost time, should we leave?"
"Huh? It's already three o'clock?"
Mr. Qian looked at his watch and said, "That's good. Let's take a shower first and then go to the port over there."
After simply packing up their belongings, the three of them walked on the way to the shower room with relaxed expressions. Gao Yi deliberately used the excuse of returning the swimming ring to stay far away, making it easier for Ah Shen to get closer.
"Mr. Gao, I'm afraid these things are closely related to the ghost ship."
Ah Shen ran in front of Gao Yi, like a child in a hurry to take a bath, but his voice was inexplicably low: "In all the time I have been chasing, they have appeared later than the ghost ship."
"Perhaps it is precisely because of its appearance that some kind of mutation occurred in the ocean."
"But it's the high seas."
Gao Yi reached the top of the steps and suddenly looked back, looking at the already dark sea level in the distance: "I don't understand what kind of mutation it is and why it can span such a long distance and indirectly affect the city's coast. ..."
