I Wasn't Born Lucky

Ye Zeqing originally wanted to keep himself mysterious and aloof - after all, a strong person would not ask other people questions casually, and would be curious about others.

But he couldn't help it anymore, so he could only keep his upper body still, pretending to be bored and asking nonchalantly, "How do you feel now?"

Xiao Li was looking at the degree of water soaking of the wood, when Ye Zeqing asked him suddenly, he said without turning his head, "Feel?"

"Just... are you afraid?"

Xiao Li shook his head. He pulled out the scalpel, cut a small piece of wood from the wooden partition, and pulled it in his hand. The wood piece was deeply bent and exuded a strong smell of decay.

"Do you still find it exciting?" Ye Zeqing put his hands in his pockets and kept his eyes fixed on the surface, but the words he asked were completely different.

Xiao Li admitted honestly: "It's a bit."

"Hey, you really admitted it. To be honest, do you have a personality problem? Why are you so excited?" Ye Zeqing broke the character design, and he immediately realized that his volume was too high and coughed , lowered the volume forcefully again, and restored the image of a calm and strong man, "Well, I mean, there is nothing exciting here."

Xiao Li walked slowly at the end, throwing away the piece of wood in his hand, feeling here and there, and left a long finger mark on the wooden board with his hands.

There was an unpleasant smell in the air, the rotten smell of things after soaking for a long time.

"By the way, I went to your room to look for you, but there was no sound. Did you do it?" Ye Zeqing was silent for a while, then suddenly remembered this matter.

Xiao Li didn't know about it, but he could roughly guess who did it, so he just nodded casually, as a tacit consent.

"...how did you do it?" Ye Zeqing asked in a low voice.

How do you do it?This has to be asked by Aite Xiao Huang Ben.

Xiao Li glanced at him, but didn't answer.

Ye Zeqing was just trying to ask. If some special props were involved, many people would not be willing to speak out. Seeing that Xiao Li didn't respond, he didn't ask further.

The group of them walked along the dark cabin and saw a closed door. They smiled and turned sideways, and carefully pushed the door open. Along with the creaking sound of the cabin door, there was a sound coming from the deck. Come screaming.

The scream was very loud, even after a short distance, it still sounded like a magic sound.

The depressed Rosanne was the first to recognize the source of the voice, and she turned her head suddenly: "An Ran!"

"Something happened upstairs..." Wei Ligai raised his head.

Luo Shan subconsciously wanted to run back to have a look, but Wei Ligai grabbed her and said, "You can only die with me when you go back!"

As a senior person, Qi Xiaoxiao has experienced so many reincarnation worlds and is used to seeing life and death. She said coldly: "Life and death are both your own choices. They have chosen and missed many times. Everyone should be responsible for themselves." .”

As she spoke, she took out the flashlight and walked into the room.

At the same time, on the deck of the ghost ship, An Ran, who was screaming, has been unable to make any other sounds since the first scream, because a hand covered her mouth.

At first, she was lying on the edge of the boat, looking at the endless sea level, feeling panicked: "What should we do?"

"Why don't you...follow them? There are many people, they feel safe, and they seem to be very experienced with ghosts." The girl in the young couple said weakly.

Zhu Zhu shook his head and vetoed: "The more experienced they are, the more suspicious they are. What if they made it? I suspect that we collectively inhaled some kind of suspicious hallucinogenic gas. If we get high together, we will be knocked out by them if we go down." money!"

"I...I will never go down, it's so dark, it's too scary." An Ran shook her head.

While they were discussing, Lu Tang suddenly widened his eyes and pointed to the sea behind Zhu Zhu: "Then, there is a head over there!"

Zhu Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look in the direction Lu Tang was pointing at——

On the rough sea, there is a head staring at them.

Seeing that Zhu Zhu turned his head, the water ghost opened his mouth full of fangs. A jet of water rolled up Zhu Zhu and stuffed it into his mouth.

Something fell out of his pocket and was floating on the surface of the sea. If someone looked closely, they would find that it was a crumpled playing card.

Seeing this, An Ran let out that scream, but the next moment, the water ghost's target was changed to her.

She was gagged and dragged under the water.

in the cabin.

In addition to a simple single bed in this room, there is also a table with a cup of hot tea on the table.

——Yes, hot tea, the tea in the teacup is still steaming, as if someone was sitting here drinking tea before, and left before the reincarnators came in the next second.

Under the hot tea, there is a thick book.

After Qi Xiaoxiao entered the door, he hid behind him for a while, fearing that there might be an ambush inside, but Xiao Li and Ye Zeqing walked in ostentatiously. The former was not afraid, and the latter did not sense the existence of ghosts.

Xiao Li took the hot tea and opened the book at the bottom.

It was a "Navigation Log", which recorded the date, sailing route, and the wind direction of the day in detail, but the most important thing was some life fragments mentioned above.

At first, the things recorded above were normal.

[329th, sunny day, southeast wind. 】

[The weather today is very good, the wind is calm, and the wind direction is also helping us. I think we can reach the destination within a month, which is great. I hope that all of this batch of goods will be sold. After this trip, I will stay at home, no Run around. 】

Seeing this, Wei Ligai said: "This man really set up a huge fg, and the white flag of death is planted all over his body."

[42nd, rainy day, northeast wind. 】

[I went to check the status of the goods again today, I hope it won't rain anymore, the goods are about to be flooded. 】

[45nd, rainy day, northeast wind. 】

[These days have been rainy, the speed of the voyage is slow, and the scheduled arrival time will be delayed again, but on the bright side, at least there are more fresh water reserves... Well, I can only comfort myself like this. 】

……

But after turning over a few more pages, the description changed. The person suffered the same thing as the reincarnated person, and he didn't even have the mood to write the format.

【Oh my god... what the hell is going on? Why did my cargo ship turn into a dilapidated ship in the blink of an eye? !And no one, the crew is all gone, and the ship is still racing along! 】

[My house has also changed, there is a cup of hot tea on the table, and there is no one else. This reminds me of the ghost ship news that I have seen before. The sudden appearance of the ship is empty, but everything is human. No one knows where they went... This is definitely done by God, it cannot be done by human power! 】

[The ship has long deviated from the channel, and all the navigators are out of order. I don't know where it will go, but the wind and waves are getting bigger and bigger. The ship does not have any reinforcement measures. Will it be overturned? 】

Xiao Li looked down, picked up the cup of hot tea, and took a sip naturally.

He hadn't swallowed his tea when he heard a gasp from the side.

Xiao Li looked back, Qi Xiaoxiao was leaning against the bed, pointing at the hot tea in his hand: "...how did you drink it?!"

Xiao Li looked down at the hot tea, he thought it wasn't sulfuric acid, so there's no need to be so surprised, right?

"Thirsty," he said.

His tone is very natural, and the logical order is also very smooth. When you are thirsty, you have to drink water, and when it is cold, you have to add clothes, which made Qi Xiaoxiao unable to refute.

She was speechless for a while, and then said: "But, but this is haunted, what if it is poisonous, or mildewed..."

"Fresh, just steeped, no more than 2 minutes." Xiao Li put the teacup under his nose and smelled it, the heat of the tea wet his eyelashes.

Qi smiled: "..."

—Who really asked you this?No one will drink this kind of thing, okay!

Xiao Li slowly closed the logbook, and raised two fingers: "The tea is fresh, but the tea leaves are not good, and the person who makes the tea has no taste. There are two possibilities. One, time freezes; I specially made a cup of tea and waited for us before."

While saying that the tea was not good, he drank it thirsty.

Luo Shan was listening, she could hear a bit vaguely, she only understood a general idea, she had heard someone call Xiao Li's name before, and the little girl said with admiration: "Mr. Moriarty drinks this cup of tea to test the inference. , This kind of spirit of self-sacrifice is really amazing."

Xiao Li: "..."

——In fact, he was really thirsty and picked it up to drink. He was a little embarrassed to be blown by Rosanne like that.

He avoided Rosanne's gaze, put down his teacup, and looked around the room again. His eyes finally moved away from the half-opened quilt on the single bed, and went to the next cabin.

This time, Xiao Li walked in the front, and the others followed behind him. Xiao Li still put his finger on the cabin wall, leaving a mark.

Drops of water seeped through the wooden walls overhead and dripped at their feet.

The reincarnated people walked further into the depths, and there was a cloud of dust floating in the air because of their walking.

After arriving in the next room, Xiao Li opened the door, and before he could see what was inside, a person fell towards him.

He had already prepared to move his body sideways, seeing that figure was about to fall on Ye Zeqing's body, a black shadow jumped out from the young man's arm, and pushed the man away.

The "person" who fell from the room fell directly on the floor, and after a dull "bang", he remained motionless.

Only then did everyone see clearly that it was a corpse, to be precise, it was a corpse, the skin and flesh had long been weathered into ashes, leaving only a skeleton wrapped in a broken coat.

Ye Zeqing didn't sense the ghostly aura, he lost interest in the skeleton, stepped over it, and walked into the room.

Qi Xiaoxiao bent down, briefly groped for the skeleton, pulled out a pocket watch from the neck of the skeleton, opened it, and there was a picture of a woman inside, she rubbed the pocket watch for a while, but did not see anything unusual , and threw it back, and followed Ye Zeqing to check the room.

They soon found out that a sealed safe was pulled out from under the bed, and it was locked. It was obviously the owner's favorite thing.

"There is a lock with a six-digit code." Ye Zeqing said.

Qi Xiaoxiao took off the string of Buddhist beads from his wrist and pressed them on the safe, but it didn't work: "There is no influence of supernatural power..."

Wei Ligai: "The dungeon world will not put a safe here for no reason, maybe this will be our clue."

Qi Xiaoxiao put away the beads, and continued to rummage in this room, looking for paper or lettering that might record the password.

While they were discussing, Xiao Li was still squatting beside the corpse, groping for the skeleton, holding the pocket watch in his hand.

Ye Zeqing turned to Xiao Li and said, "The one at the door, if you have time to whip corpses there, why don't you come and help us guess the password."

Xiao Li said without raising his head, "Password? jeisante."

Ye Zeqing: "...What the hell?"

——Why did you suddenly speak bird language? !

"Just kidding." Xiao Li raised his head, a smile flashed across his black eyes, and he said again, "Try 131513."

Ye Zeqing looked at him suspiciously, and tentatively entered the six-digit number Xiao Li said, and the combination lock opened in response.

Qi Xiaoxiao said in amazement: "Moriarty, how do you know the password?"

"It's very simple, low-level conversion," Xiao Li stood up and clapped his hands, "o, converted into the order in the English alphabet, corresponds to 131513."

Qi Xiaoxiao continued to ask: "Then how do you know it's o, not dad, not son?"

Xiao Li seemed a little puzzled why Qi Xiaoxiao raised this question. He pointed to the watch on the skeleton: "Assuming this person is the owner of the box, there is a picture of a woman in the pocket watch he carries. Obviously, this woman is The person he loves very much. The person in the photo is too old to be his sister. Even if he is a sibling, but there is no wedding ring on his body, so the biggest possibility is mother and child. Like this kind of crew drifting at sea , generally have a thought, to construct the power to survive through the ties of identity and blood, the most important thing for this kind of people is not the name, but the identity."

Qi smiled: "..."

Xiao Li walked to the side of the box, turned the combination lock, and opened the safe.

It was empty inside, without many clues imagined by the reincarnators, only an empty shell, an empty shell of playing cards, locked in a safe with such a precious place.

Xiao Li fell into deep thought after seeing the empty poker shell. Ye Zeqing reached out and took out the poker shell, shook it, and threw it back: "It's very ordinary, nothing special."

poker...

Qi Xiaoxiao took out the poker card he had drawn at the ball, held it in his hand for a while, and then suddenly asked Xiao Li: "What do you think, Moriarty?"

Xiao Li shook his head: "Not sure, let's look again."

He put his hand on the door of the safe, took out the poker shell and took it with him, and closed the door again.

They walked out of the room and continued on.

During the time they came down, except for the scary atmosphere in the cabin, no other official ghosts appeared, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Roseanne followed behind Wei Ligai, whom she was most familiar with. At first, she didn't remember it, and followed them all the way, and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Wei, you are not ordinary passengers, are you?"

Wei Ligai hesitated for a moment: "We often see ghosts, and we are also used to seeking our way out of haunted incidents."

Luo Shan lowered her head slightly. She was also often rejected by her friends because of her obsession, so she had no hostility towards the reincarnated people: "Ghosts... really exist?"

"Aren't we in the world of ghosts now?" Wei Ligai asked with a wry smile.

Ye Zeqing suddenly interrupted their words, he stretched out a hand to stop them: "Wait."

Qi smiled and asked, "Yan Luo, what's wrong?"

"It smells like a ghost..." Ye Zeqing said cautiously.

Luo Shan glanced around, and suddenly caught a glimpse of an object out of the corner of her eye, she immediately pulled out her own playing cards, suppressing the urge to scream: "Back, back!"

The reincarnated person walking in front turned his head——

On the floor less than half a meter away from the last person in the team, lay a skeleton corpse.

It was wearing the same clothes as before, and even had the same posture, but it was no longer at the door of the previous room. The distance between the skeleton and the reincarnated person was not far away, but close at hand.

It's as if... this skeleton just got up silently, and has been quietly following behind them!

Before Roseanne turned her head, the skeleton's hand was about to touch Wei Ligai's heel.

If Ye Zeqing hadn't sensed it, the skeleton could drag Wei Ligai down and kill him in the next second!

Wei Ligai immediately distanced himself from the skeleton, and said in shock, "This skeleton...is it alive?"

Xiao Li clapped his hands, and he walked to the skeleton, which was still lying on the ground in the same posture as before, without moving.

But since Ye Zeqing sensed its ghostly aura, it means it is a ghost.

Xiao Li squatted down again, and stretched out his hand towards the skeleton on the ground—Ye Zeqing thought at first that he was going to get the skeleton's pocket watch, or use some props, but the next moment, he saw Xiao Li holding one of the skeleton's legs bone, and removed it.

Skeleton Ghost: ? ? ?

One leg bone from the left foot was not enough, so Xiao Li removed one leg bone from the skeleton's right foot in the same way, and held the two together in the palm of his hand.

"Try with another one." Xiao Li let out a "huh".

He originally got up and wanted to leave, but he didn't think it through enough—what if the skeleton ghost continued to climb with both hands?

So Xiao Li removed the skeleton ghost's hand bones, leaving only the backbone of its body, and walked back to the team.

Ye Zeqing: "..."

——Why are you so proficient in dismantling skeletons? !

Xiao Li held the pile of dismantled bones in his arms, and was about to signal everyone to leave quickly when he heard a heavy blow from the place behind him where the skeleton was.

He didn't turn around, but Ye Zeqing, Qi Xiaoxiao and others kept facing the direction of the skeleton and didn't look back for a long time.

The skeleton seemed to want to get up, rubbed it a few times, but couldn't even crawl on the ground, so it fell back to the ground again.

That thud was the sound of it falling.

"What?" Ye Zeqing's eyes were so strange that Xiao Li couldn't help but ask because he was terrified.

Ye Zeqing closed his mouth tightly, and said after a long while: "I... just sensed its thoughts..."

Xiao Li asked casually, "What do you think?"

Ye Zeqing was silent for a long time, and then choked out a sentence: "Hell is empty, and the devil is in the world."

Xiao Li:?

——Isn’t it describing him?
