I Wasn't Born Lucky

Xiao Li turned his thoughts, and asked Bixian tentatively: "Do you know the identity of 'it'?"

Does the "it" mentioned in the mission refer to the water ghost on this ship, or other ghosts?

The fountain pen under the control of the pen fairy paused. Although it didn't want to answer, it wrinkled its face and wrote a line: 【It's a trap. 】

trap……

mean this ship?Or is it the task itself?

While thinking in his heart, Xiao Li continued to ask: "Then where is it?"

Pen Fairy: 【It...】

At the same time that Bixian wrote this sentence, Xiao Li and Ye Zeqing saw the first word clearly, and the rest of the sentence was covered by some kind of supernatural power, presumably because it touched on the truth about the cruise ship .

Then this means that the reincarnation in this dungeon world cannot directly ask the truth about the higher evil spirits——Xiao Li gave up the third question he had prepared. He pulled out the toothpick inserted in the sandwich and asked a Ye Zeqing asked an inexplicable question: "Who is that cat?"

Pen Fairy: 【………】

——I can’t say it, even if I know it, I can’t say it!

But it has to answer, so Pen Fairy can only bear the pain to destroy its own reputation—it wrote in a panic: [This, this touches my blind spot of knowledge. 】

Xiao Li: "..."

There is such a thing as a blind spot in the pen fairy?

He gestured to Ye Zeqing with his eyes, the young man looked back at him with strange eyes, it seems that he didn't get his meaning - Xiao Li touched the back of Ye Zeqing's hand, held the pen together with him, and drew The pen fairy sent it back.

Then Xiao Li flicked the fountain pen that was refilled with ink, and added another word after the original noun: trap.

Ye Zeqing is different from his elder brother Ye Lingshi, Ye Lingshi likes to think, and because of Ye Zeqing's natural physique, he usually passes the level through the induction with ghosts, so Ye Zeqing watched Xiao Li pass the clues over there. Written out, my heart is actually very confusing.

He was confused, but he didn't ask, because asking was out of character.

The young man picked up the coffee and took another sip, his eyes wandering, wanting to wait for Xiao Li to speak up.

With one hand resting on his chin, Xiao Li drew a boat under the word "trap" and wrote a doubtful question mark.

Ye Zeqing thought even more confused: Why did Xiao Li draw a puddle of vomit under the trap?Or is it a turf trap, no, it looks more like Pinocchio's nose...

Xiao Li went through all the current clues in his mind, then crumpled up the white paper and threw it into the trash can. It seemed that he didn't intend to speak to Ye Zeqing on his own initiative.

Ye Zeqing twisted on the chair twice, and drank the cup of coffee in one gulp.

While the two of them were thinking about each other, a few more people turned up from the stairs. They were the other reincarnated people who separated from them at the pier at that time, and the leader was a playful and lovely girl.

The girl wears Buddhist beads on her wrist, has a round face, round eyes, a moderate figure, and a smile on her face all the time. She is the type that makes people feel good.

She came in front of the two of them: "Are you also the reincarnation this time? I am Qi Xiaoxiao."

Ye Zeqing put his hands on the table, turned his head, looked at the little girl from top to bottom, and said coolly: "Yan Luo."

Xiao Li: "..."

Ye Zeqing is a bit of a middle school kid.

He sighed: "Just call me Moriarty."

Qi Xiaoxiao didn't laugh because of the strange name. There are many names in the reincarnation, some call themselves "Wukong" and "Emperor of Heaven". The strangest name she has ever seen is a post on a forum. "A wise and fortunate man" seen in the temple-this is the name of a reincarnated person.

Qi Xiaoxiao exchanged some pleasantries with them, and then got to the point: "Did you get attacked by ghosts last night? One of our reincarnations was caught by ghosts while sleeping last night. Fortunately, he survived with life-saving props." come down."

Ye Zeqing looked at Xiao Li: "He was also attacked, but nothing happened."

Qi Xiaoxiao habitually touched the Buddhist beads on his wrist: "Do you want to join us? Let's act together, so we can take care of us."

This was the main reason why she came here to say hello. After all, these two people looked different from the mob outside.

Ye Zeqing stretched his shoulders and arms, raised his chin slightly, and looked down at Qi Xiaoxiao who was opposite him: "I'm used to being alone."

Seeing this, although Qi Xiaoxiao was a little disappointed in his heart, the smile on his face remained unchanged: "It's okay, we will cooperate again if there is a chance in the future."

With that said, she sat down with the others near them and ordered another cocktail for each of them.

Qi Xiaoxiao held up his wine glass against the sea breeze: "We went to the crew yesterday to ask about the history of this ship. It sounds innocent, and there has never been a haunted experience."

Xiao Li inserted a small piece of sandwich with a toothpick and put it in his mouth. Before he could open his mouth, he choked on the unpalatable sandwich and coughed a few times.

Ye Zeqing frowned, handed the other party's orange juice in front of him, and said with a smile at the same time: "Maybe the ghost just boarded the boat and came with us."

"But we—"

Just as Qi Xiaoxiao was about to speak, a male reincarnation ran up from the downstairs cabin. He whispered a few words in Qi Xiaoxiao's ear, and Qi Xiaoxiao jumped up: "Something happened to the character in the plot!"

They ran towards the interior of the cabin together, and Xiao Li followed.

In the corridor of the second-class cabin, the black-haired girl was lying on the ground, panting violently, tightly holding the playing card that belonged to her.

Luo Shan had just experienced a shocking moment - An Ran went out early in the morning to find Zhu Zhu and the others to discuss the photos of last night, and she stayed in the room to organize things, so it was a bit late.

After tidying up her luggage, Luo Shan went into the bathroom to wash her face. She took a basin of water and was about to bury her face in it when suddenly a huge force came from behind her head!

It felt like there was another person standing behind Luo Shan, pressing down on her head with his arms, trying to drown her alive in the basin!

Roseanne struggled desperately, and somehow touched the ghost, and finally pulled her head out of the water basin before completely suffocating, but it was not over yet.

The basin of water "swimmed" toward her as if alive, like a water snake, it seemed that it would not stop until it drowned her.

Rosanne scrambled and ran outside frantically, opened the door and rushed out of the corridor, but the water flow behind her followed her until she fell because of the inconvenience of her slippers.

"Help me—"

At that moment, Roseanne closed her eyes in despair, she thought she was sure to die, but at that moment, the poker she had kept in her pocket since she got it fell to the ground, making a slight "click" .

At that moment, the water flow disappeared.

Rosean clearly saw a little light floating out from the top of the playing cards, disrupting the water flow.

Did this playing card... just protect her?

Roseanne picked up the playing cards in the water splash, it was wet and a little wrinkled, but she held the playing cards in her hand as if she had found a treasure.

She clings to the last piece of driftwood like a drowning man.

Luo Shan thought, the man who dealt the poker cards at the ball must be an expert, he saw the existence of water ghosts, so he drew them life-saving spirits!

She held the playing cards until the reincarnators arrived and circled around Luo Shan.

"Miss Luo Shan, are you okay?" The reincarnated man who came to inform Qi Xiaoxiao had obviously talked to Luo Shan, he pretended to be surprised, and leaned over to help Luo Shan.

Roseanne lowered her head and clenched her playing cards tightly.

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you in such a mess?" Qi Xiaoxiao asked with concern.

Roseanne only recognized them as strangers who had greeted her at the ball, she subconsciously denied: "It's okay, I just slipped..."

The male reincarnation said: "It's okay, Luo Shan, did you encounter something unclean? We also encountered it last night, but fortunately I have a jade pendant that I have been wearing since I was a child, so I escaped." , I think this ship is... haunted!"

He deliberately lowered the last two words, and they blew into Roseanne's ears like thunder.

Luo Shan said as if she had met a bosom friend: "It's water, I... I was washing my face, and then it seemed like someone was holding me down, trying to drown me. After I rushed out, the water was still following me..."

"and then?"

"Then...it was it!" Rosanne held up the playing card, "It saved me, it broke up the water..."

Everyone's eyes focused on the card, Qi Xiaoxiao took out his own card from the pocket on his chest, and stroked it thoughtfully.

Is this card more than just a decoration?

Qi Xiaoxiao pondered for a moment, wanting to get more information from the characters in the plot, she and the male reincarnator supported Luo Shan to find her companion.

Ye Zeqing just wanted to follow them, but Xiao Li turned the corner and walked in another direction, the young man caught up with him for a moment: "Where are you going?"

Xiao Li: "Eat."

"Didn't you just eat a sandwich?"

"It's unpalatable."

"..."

Ye Zeqing suspected that he was following the wrong person, but he rubbed his stomach, and a cup of coffee was not enough to feed him, so he consciously followed.

The two of them walked in the cabin one after the other, the boat was driving very steadily, only a little shaking told them that this place was on the sea.

After walking for about 1 minute, Ye Zeqing's expression suddenly changed. He reached out and grabbed Xiao Li's left hand, and shouted sharply: "The ghost has appeared."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a row of continuous footprints appeared in front of the two of them in the opposite direction.

The footprints were made of water, like a transparent, invisible "person", dripping with water, walking towards them.

Ye Zeqing's muscles tensed up, and the little ghost tattoo on his arm started to swim. He closed his eyes to sense the emotion of the water ghost opposite, and said, "It's looking for food, it's very hungry..."

Xiao Li looked back at Ye Zeqing in surprise: "You can also translate?"

Ye Zeqing spoke very quickly: "I can vaguely detect the ghost's emotions, but if the strength difference is too large, I can't sense it, and there is a distance limit - this is not the point now, the point is that it wants to eat us!"

The water ghost stopped one meter away from Xiao Li.

Ye Zeqing simultaneously translated the other party's emotions: "It is hesitating."

The next moment, the two looked up at the same time, and there were footsteps coming from the ceiling!

Footprints appeared in all directions.

The entire corridor was like a sauna, with water mist gushing out continuously, and in the dimness, a human figure dripping with water appeared upside down from the ceiling.

The water ghost's hair was covered with seaweed, and its teeth were extremely sharp. It had obviously been hiding in the sea before, and there was a king crab caught in the end of its hair. It sucked an octopus on its feet, and its head was facing Xiao Li across the air.

Xiao Li's eyes lit up, and he put one hand into his pocket, just pressed back the poker card that was about to pop out, and grabbed the water ghost's hair with the other hand, and pulled it out before it opened its mouth. The king crab wrapped around its hair, and a few long hairs belonging to water ghosts wrapped around the crab, were uprooted together.

Ye Zeqing translated slowly and synchronously: "...it is afraid...a little pain..."
