Chapter 187: Saving Rachel
This cry scared Jill, who was not afraid at first, and she looked around nervously, especially the dark corners, as if a ghost would appear from there.
Seeing this, Long Yuan stepped forward and touched Jill's head: "Don't worry, if there really is a ghost, I will protect you."
Jill looked at Long Yuan with emotion, and Parker also calmed down and stared at the two people in front of him speechlessly. He felt like he was being fed a mouthful of dog food.
Suddenly, a drop of water dripped from Long Yuan's head, sliding down his neck to his waist.
"There's a ghost, there's a ghost!" Long Yuan suddenly jumped onto Jill, hugged her tightly, and pointed at the place where water was dripping.
Parker raised the gun in his hand and fired a burst of bullets at the direction where Long Yuan was pointing. When the bullets were used up, small holes were made on the planks above his head.
"What's wrong? Nothing?" Jill looked several times to make sure there was nothing.
"Uh, maybe it ran away." Long Yuan also reacted at this time . It might be a drop of water, but could he admit that he was scared by a drop of water? No.
Getting off Jill, and ignoring her teasing look, Long Yuan coughed and said, "Let's go. Be careful, or that ghost might come back again."
Jill probably knew what scared Long Yuan, but she didn't expose it. Only Parker agreed: "Yes, finish the task quickly so we can leave this damn place."
Parker, who has never been afraid of ghosts, felt a little scared at this moment. It’s not that he is not afraid of ghosts, but that the atmosphere is not right.
The three continued to move forward. There was a door on the way forward. As soon as it was opened, a shelf came into view. Then the three saw a white figure flash past from behind the shelf.
The three of them were startled. Could there really be a ghost? Jill thought to himself. Long Yuan was also a little scared at this time. Could it be that he had attracted the ghost by talking so badly?
He is not afraid of zombies, after all, they can be physically reincarnated, but ghosts are invisible and intangible, and he didn't bring any ghost-exorcising items, so wait, exorcise ghosts.
"Haha, isn't it just a ghost? Wait a minute, this is for you." Long Yuan took out three peach wood swords from his backpack. He bought them when he went to Hua Xia and King Ada to visit the antique street because they looked good.
"What is this?" Jill asked in confusion.
"This is called a peach wood sword. In China, this thing can subdue ghosts that have been around for thousands of years. Ghosts are most afraid of this." Long Yuan looked proud. This has a history of thousands of years in China.
"Give it to me, give it to me." Parker quickly stepped forward, picked up one and put it in his arms. In his eyes, just like vampires are afraid of crosses, ghosts are afraid of mahogany swords.
Jill didn't take it and said with a smile: "I don't need it. You will protect me, right? I trust you."
"Hehe, don't worry, as long as I'm not dead, you won't lose a single hair." Seeing that Jill trusted him so much, Long Yuan immediately patted his chest and made a promise.
The three of them started to set off, leaving the room used to store goods and coming to the corridor outside. Just as they turned a corner and were about to go down the stairs, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound from the pipes above their heads.
The three men stopped immediately and looked at the pipe. Jill and Parker aimed their guns at the pipe, while Long Yuan held a peach wood sword. If it was a ghost, he would jump up and strike it with the sword to make it behave like a human.
After waiting for a long time, nothing came out, so the three continued to move forward and went down the short ladder. There was blood dripping above a passage in front of them that was blocked by a pile of things.
Jill stepped forward and shone a flashlight on it. "There's blood dripping from the pipe. Be careful!"
Just as he finished speaking, the pipe suddenly broke, and the upper body of a corpse appeared in front of everyone. He was wearing an orange vest, and one of his hands was only bone. He looked at the three people with a horrified expression, and his hands waved weakly.
The three of them were startled, but soon realized it was just a corpse and relaxed.
"Humph! He can still scare people even after his death. This guy must have loved playing pranks when he was alive." Parker said dissatisfiedly.
"Okay, let's go."
We moved forward and came to the kitchen of the ship. The kitchen was once tidy, but now pots and pans were scattered on the ground. There was a corpse lying on a table used for cooking.
Parker went forward to check, and after a moment he shook his head: "He has been dead for some time. It seems that a massacre has occurred here."
"Come and look here."
Long Yuan discovered that a drainage area in the kitchen was filled with blood and flesh, and a fishy stench hit him in the face.
"Wait a moment." Parker took out a scanner and scanned the flesh and blood. Then he found a gun inside: "There's something in there."
When Long Yuan heard this, he took out gloves from his backpack and put them on. He gently lifted the iron bars on the sewer and threw them aside, then gestured with his head to Parker to pick them up.
"Oh no, at least give me a pair of gloves."
"Sorry, we only have one pair." Long Yuan refused without thinking.
"Cough, cough, it stinks, ah cough cough cough!"
Long Yuan looked at Parker speechlessly, knowing that he was stinky but still talking, he deserved it for coughing.
Soon, Parker pulled the gun out of his flesh and blood. A severed hand covered in blood and mucus was tightly gripping a pistol, with its finger still on the trigger.
Judging from the looks of it, the owner of the hand must have had his hand chopped off suddenly, so the gun didn't even have time to fall down and was still being tightly grasped by his hand.
Long Yuan was disgusted by this scene and took a step back with Jill.
Parker picked it up, examined it carefully for a moment, and said, "This isn't Chris's gun. That's really good news."
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard, and Jill and Long Yuan immediately turned around and looked behind them.
It was as tall as a human, with four needle-like teeth on its upper jaw and its lower jaw had basically degenerated and disappeared. When it opened its mouth, its head would tilt back, exposing its esophagus, and then its leech-shaped tongue would stick out.
A monster with a row of bones exposed in a fan-shaped pattern on its arms appeared there. It looked like a drowned corpse, its body soaked and most of it liquefied.
Seeing this, Long Yuan took a step forward and rushed forward, slashing the Dripping Eroder's head with the peach wood sword in his hand. The Dripping Eroder's head was directly slammed away, and then he collapsed to the ground powerlessly.
Parker, who was behind, saw that the peach wood sword was so powerful, took out the peach wood sword from his arms and took a look at it. It turned out that this thing was so powerful.
Putting away the peach wood sword, Parker took two steps forward, looked at the Erosion and said, "This means that the crew has met with an accident. The situation is not good. Where are you, Chris?
Do you think Chris and Jessica will fall prey to this monster? "
Jill said worriedly, "I hope not."
"Hey! I'm not saying Chris is dead." Parker stood up a little excitedly and looked at Jill, but was glared back by Long Yuan.
"Okay, then let's go find him quickly," Jill comforted.
"Crack! Bang!"
There was a loud noise. Parker looked in the direction of the sound and asked, "Did you hear that? Was that the sound coming from the door lock?"
"Jill and I will go check it out." Long Yuan said.
"Huh!? Okay, I'll stay here and see if there are any clues." Although he didn't want to stay here alone, it was undoubtedly best to act separately at this time.
"Understood. If I find any trace of Chris, I will contact you by radio."
After saying that, the two left the kitchen and walked towards the place where the noise came from. When they were almost there, a girl's scream was heard. The two looked at each other and changed from walking to running.
They soon arrived at the destination. Through the glass, Long Yuan saw a girl in a black tights and with long golden hair being grabbed by the neck by the Dripping Erosion. The next moment, the Dripping Erosion threw the girl heavily against the glass.
Long Yuan's eyes narrowed, he pushed hard with his toes, and rushed out in one step. Before the girl was about to hit the glass, Long Yuan successfully broke the glass and hugged the girl in his arms.
Rachel closed her eyes tightly. Why did she encounter such a thing? She was just a novice, but she had to carry out such a difficult mission in such a dangerous place.
But I don’t want to die yet. There are still many things I haven’t completed. By the way, will it be painful and ugly to die like this?
Huh? Why haven't I died yet? Is it really like they say, that when a person is about to die, time feels particularly long? That would be great, at least I can still breathe the air of this world.
"Ahem, beauty, if you don't get up, my Jill will be jealous." Suddenly, a voice sounded in Rachel's ears.
